Architectural Decision Record Generator

Create an ADR document for the Cosmian KMS repository.

ADR Storage

Save ADRs at: documentation/docs/adr/adr-YYYY-MM-DD-[title-slug].md

Where YYYY-MM-DD is the current date.

If the documentation/docs/adr/ directory doesn't exist yet, create it and add a nav entry in documentation/mkdocs.yml.

Required Inputs

Ask the user for:

1. Decision Title — short, imperative phrase (e.g. "Use SQLite as default database backend")
2. Context — problem statement, constraints, and why a decision was needed
3. Decision — the chosen solution
4. Alternatives — other options considered and why they were rejected
5. Stakeholders — roles affected (e.g. "operators, security auditors, contributors")

If any required input is missing, ask before proceeding.
