Tier 1designengineeringproductA person checks this

The same decision being re-made in month 6 because nobody remembers the reason for the first one.

Add to your project
Add "Decision log" from ntent to this repo.

Fetch https://ntent.app/r/f/decisions as plain text. Write it verbatim to DECISIONS.md. Then make exactly these edits and no others: The first entry is an example from a billing app: delete it. Then write the decisions this project has actually made, one entry each, and label any whose source is memory rather than a thread or a call as "(from memory)". A fresh project may have none yet, and a file with only the template entry in it is correct.

Then check it: Every entry names a real decision, who agreed it and when. Nothing in the file is invented, and an entry reconstructed from memory says so.

### 2026-08-30 | invoices | Overdue is a persistent banner, not a toast
An overdue state is true for as long as the page is open, so it cannot be a
message you dismiss by waiting. Finance lead asked for it on the call of 12 Aug.
(Example entry from another product. Delete it.)

### <date> | <area> | <the decision, as a sentence>
<why, and who agreed it. 2 lines is enough. A link to the call or thread beats a
paraphrase. If this is being written from memory, say "(from memory)".>

Success check: Every entry names a real decision, who agreed it and when. Nothing in the file is invented, and an entry reconstructed from memory says so.
