# Tag every decision in your game's log with who made it

PaperChase agent use case (free feed entry), version 1.0. Source: [u/RUSuper on r/ClaudeAI](https://www.reddit.com/r/ClaudeAI/comments/1xgoj4i/week_13_of_making_fishing_and_exploration_game/), 2026-10-27.

## What they did

The developer logs every design and technical decision in one file. Choices they made are tagged [USER] and treated as fixed; choices the agent suggested are tagged [PROPOSED] and can be challenged later. User decisions win any conflict. Work is split across sessions at different effort levels, with one manager session planning and handing tasks out, and the log is how later sessions avoid undoing earlier choices.

## Worth knowing

An untagged decision log lets an agent treat its own old guesses as your rules. One tag per line fixes that. The decision count is the author's.

## Workflow template

```text
Apply this workflow to [your project]:
1. Create Decisions.md with one line per decision and a date
2. Tag each line [USER] or [PROPOSED]
3. Rule: [USER] lines change only when I say so
4. Ask the agent to add [PROPOSED] lines whenever it makes a non-obvious choice
5. Review the proposed lines weekly and promote or remove them
Stop and ask me before anything irreversible: deploys, payments, sends or deletes.
```
