ADR 0002 — Git docs site as architecture SSOT

Status: Accepted
Date: 2026-09-11
Deciders: FalconX engineering

Context

We need a single source of truth engineers trust when making follow-on decisions. Docs that live only in chat or slide decks drift from multi-repo reality.

Decision

  1. This git repo (VitePress Markdown + LikeC4 + ADRs) is the architecture SSOT.
  2. IaC / compose / gitops remain SSOT for configuration — this site summarizes and links.

Consequences

  • PRs review architecture with code
  • Team must update docs in the same change wave

Alternatives considered

OptionWhy not
Wiki-only docsWeak review; drifts from code
Only Local-dev-setup/docsCouples orchestration repo to long-form product architecture
