ADR-0026 was reviewed; status flips proposed -> accepted with the two open questions closed: 1. Person dedup at first sign-in. v1 looks up by entraOid only; no email-based merging. Two distinct people genuinely can share an email, and silent auto-merge would corrupt the golden record. ADR-0027 introduces operator-confirmed reconciliation; v1 takes the safe-by-default posture. 2. Org-hierarchy seed placement. Region / Delegation / Etablissement codes ship inline in the Prisma migration as reference data — slow-moving, environment-agnostic, single atomic deploy. ADR-0027's Pléiades sync supersedes the inline seed when it ships. user_scopes for the 19 test personas stay in prisma/seed.ts (implementation PR 2) since those are test-tenant-specific data. Consequences section reworked to reflect the new dedup choice: the email-fragility Bad-because is removed; a new Bad-because documents the v1 cost (a self-signed-in Person + a later Pléiades-imported Person look like duplicates until ADR-0027's operator merge flow resolves them — observable, not silent). CLAUDE.md updated: - Roll-up bumped 0001 -> 0025 -> 0001 -> 0026. - New Architecture bullet for the portal-side data model. - Roadmap entry on @RequireScope Prisma resolver updated to reflect ADR-0026 (accepted) and the two-PR implementation phasing. Index row flipped to accepted.

Architectural Decision Records
This project records architecturally-significant decisions as ADRs in the MADR 4.0.0 format. References: adr.github.io.
Why ADRs
ADRs capture the why behind a decision — context, drivers, options considered, trade-offs accepted — at the moment the decision is made. They make architecture reviewable, onboarding faster, and prevent the same debate from being re-litigated later.
Conventions
- Format: MADR 4.0.0. Start from template.md.
- Filename:
NNNN-kebab-case-title.md, e.g.0007-adopt-tailwind-for-design-tokens.md. - Numbering: globally sequential 4-digit prefix. Numbers never reset, never get reused — even when an ADR is superseded or deprecated.
- Layout: flat folder. ADRs are not nested into category subfolders; topical organization happens via tags.
- Tags: every ADR carries a
tags:array in the MADR frontmatter, drawn from the tag vocabulary below. An ADR may carry several tags. Propose new tags (or renames) in the same PR that needs them; never invent ad-hoc tags inline. - Status lifecycle:
proposed→accepted→ optionallydeprecatedorsuperseded by [ADR-NNNN](NNNN-other.md). Update the YAML frontmatter; never delete an ADR. - Index maintenance: every ADR addition or status change must update the Index below in the same commit.
When to write an ADR
Write one whenever a development decision is non-trivial: tool or library choice, framework pattern, security control, perf budget, a11y target, naming convention, deprecation, breaking change, or any choice that future contributors would benefit from understanding the why of.
Tag vocabulary
The vocabulary below is the source of truth. It is intentionally coarse — propose extensions only when an existing tag genuinely doesn't fit, and avoid overly narrow tags.
| Tag | Scope |
|---|---|
frontend |
UI, Angular, components, design system, client-side state |
backend |
API, BFF, server-side services |
security |
AuthN, AuthZ, sessions, CSP, dependency scanning, secret management |
performance |
Perf budgets, caching, bundle size, Lighthouse |
accessibility |
WCAG, a11y testing, keyboard, ARIA, contrast |
infrastructure |
CI/CD, hosting, deployment, runtime |
observability |
Logs, metrics, traces, correlation IDs, monitoring |
data |
Persistence, schemas, migrations, data flow |
process |
Team conventions, workflows, repo policy |
Status: starter vocabulary, to be refined as ADRs accumulate. Update this table whenever a tag is added, renamed, or retired.
Index
ADRs are listed in numerical order. To slice by topic, filter on the Tags column.
