Decision Log
[[00_Apollyon_Alignment_Program/00_README|00_README]] [[01_Drift_Log]]
Purpose: Record decisions that matter so future-me can audit intent, risk, and alignment without re-litigating emotions.
Rule: If it changes my time, money, relationships, identity-story, legal exposure, or mental stability → log it the same day (Quick Entry is sufficient).
