Run the adr-archaeologist reducer subagent over the per-node enrichment sidecars + concepts.yaml + existing adrs/. Applies the 3-question wisdom test (per Nygard 2011 / adr.github.io / AWS Prescriptive Guidance) to distinguish DELIBERATE architectural decisions from IMPLEMENTATION GAPS. Emits TWO artefacts: `lineage/{repo}/implicit-adrs.md` (real ADR candidates only — backbone decisions, classified as promote / extend-existing / drift / unique-load-bearing) AND `lineage/{repo}/refactoring-scopes.md` (gap-shaped findings — absent features, missing validation, buggy defaults — actionable as DOC-NNN / TEST-NNN / SEC-NNN / PERF-NNN backlog items, NOT as ADRs).

From the source SKILL.md

Run the adr-archaeologist reducer to surface the architectural decisions ODD's codebase embodies but that aren't yet written down in adrs/ AND, critically, to separate them from implementation gaps that the substrate also surfaces. The reducer reads every per-node sidecar's implicit_adrs + bugs_limitations_corner_cases blocks + concepts.yaml's security/performance aggregates, applies the 3-question wisdom test to each candidate (per Nygard 2011 / adr.github.io / AWS Prescriptive Guidance) to determine whether it qualifies as an ADR (deliberate architectural decision with rationale +…

What this skill does

Find Implicit Adrs is a community-contributed Claude Code skill in the testing sub-category. It ships as a SKILL.md file that Claude Code auto-discovers under ~/.claude/skills/find-implicit-adrs/ and loads when your prompt matches the skill's trigger.
