ADR Verify

Companion to adr-index. After import, reads the persisted graph and surfaces integrity issues:

  • Dangling refs — edge points at an ADR ID that doesn't exist in adr-patterns. Common cause: the referenced ADR is in a sibling repo or got deleted.
  • Supersede cyclesADR-A supersedes ADR-B and ADR-B supersedes ADR-A (or longer cycles). Always data corruption.
  • Status mismatches — an ADR is the source of a supersedes edge but its own status isn't Superseded. Usually a missed status update during a successor ADR's promotion.

When to use

  • Right after adr-index to confirm the graph is healthy
  • In CI as a fail-closed gate (VERIFY_STRICT=1 exits 1 on any issue)
  • Before publishing an ADR-related release

Steps

bash
node plugins/ruflo-adr/scripts/verify.mjs

Optional env:

  • VERIFY_FORMAT=json — JSON instead of markdown
  • VERIFY_STRICT=1 — exit 1 on ANY issue (default: only on cycles)

Exit codes

CodeMeaning
0Graph healthy (or dangling refs / status mismatches present in non-strict mode)
1Supersede cycle detected, OR strict mode + any issue present
