## Purpose
An agenda exists to drive a decision, not to serve as final normative text.
Use an agenda when:
- the topic is still open,
- multiple options or tradeoffs must be evaluated,
- the scope and non-goals need to be made explicit,
- the order of discussion matters.
Move an agenda to `docs/pbs/agendas/archive` once the topic is no longer active.
## Expected Format
An agenda should usually include:
1. Title
2. Status
3. Purpose
4. Context
5. Decisions to Produce
6. Core Questions
7. Expected Spec Material
8. Non-Goals
9. Inputs
## Writing Rules
- Keep the document oriented around unresolved questions.
- Separate open questions from assumptions already fixed elsewhere.
- Name the concrete decisions the discussion must produce.
- Avoid drafting large blocks of final normative spec text here.
- Prefer explicit non-goals to prevent scope drift.
## Exit Rule
An agenda should move out of the active set when:
- the key questions have been answered,
- the architectural direction is clear enough to record,
- and the topic is ready to become a decision record and then a spec update.
