# Decision
|
|
|
|
A **Decision** note records a real choice with rationale and consequences. Codex
|
|
uses decisions to avoid relitigating the same tradeoff in later threads.
|
|
|
|
Decisions are found by structured recall:
|
|
`search_notes(metadata_filters={"type": "decision", "status": "open"})`.
|
|
|
|
Capture decisions sparingly. Use one note per genuine durable choice.
