ADR Drafter: turn a Slack decision thread into a Confluence ADR
Triggered on a Slack thread, retrieves related prior ADRs for context, drafts a properly formatted Architecture Decision Record with an LLM.
How it runs
The automated pipeline, trigger to output.

- ActionDraft structured ADR with OpenAIOpenAI
- OutputCreate draft ADR page in Confluence and link it backConfluence
What it does
Captures decisions made in Slack before they evaporate. When an engineer reacts to a decision thread with a marker emoji, the flow reads the conversation, pulls related existing ADRs for consistency, drafts a structured ADR (context, decision, consequences, alternatives), and files it as a Confluence draft.
When to use it
Use it when real decisions happen in chat but rarely become records, when the ADR template is intimidating enough that people skip it, or when you want a consistent format produced automatically for human approval.
How it works
- 1A reaction added to a Slack thread triggers the flow.
- 2The bot collects the full thread transcript via Slack.
- 3It retrieves semantically related ADRs from the Postgres index so the draft references prior decisions and avoids duplication.
- 4OpenAI writes a complete ADR in the team template, marked status "proposed," grounded in the thread and related records.
- 5The draft is created as a Confluence page and the link is posted back to the thread for review.
