- REF-03: use canonical "invoke the `skill` skill" language for all cross-skill
references in SKILL.md (was "route to / offer / hand to / Next:")
- lint_spine: scan frontmatter for unfilled template tokens / TBD (paradigm,
scope, date were uncatchable in the body-only pass)
- lint_spine: guard read_text() so a bad-encoding/unreadable spine returns error
JSON and exit 0, honoring the documented contract
- reviewer-gate: resolve the "always run" vs "may skip" ambiguity — the gate
scales/skips by stakes, but finalize_reviewers always run once it does
- tests: +3 (frontmatter token, frontmatter TBD, unreadable spine); use next()
Pre-PR review fixes for the new architecture-spine skill:
- Adopt the shared canonical memlog (#2462); drop the vendored copy and the
status-flag lifecycle in favor of `event` entries
- Wire epic-altitude inheritance: parent-spine load+bind, Inherited Invariants
template section, epic-scoped run folder, parent-contradiction lens; state
that per-story detail is deferred to bmad-create-story
- Add the Update intent; honor a forwarded-activation handoff from the
deprecated bmad-create-architecture shim
- Rename modes to Coaching path / Fast path (suite-consistent with prd/brief)
and sequence the offer as an activation step
- Fix the brownfield project-context.md default path ({output_folder} no-op)
- lint_spine: line-exact frontmatter, fence-blanking (AD-in-fence + accurate
line numbers), map-form key_deps, AD-0 fix; soften template-token severity;
add 8 tests
- Carve the Reviewer Gate to references/ to stay under the SKILL.md token budget
- Template: entities-only ERD, scale-down guidance, softened seed framing;
gitignore .memlog.md
- Rename canonical skill bmad-tech-plan -> bmad-architecture; output is ARCHITECTURE-SPINE.md
- Convert bmad-create-architecture to a deprecated husk forwarding to bmad-architecture (create intent); strip steps/data/template
- Finalize: spine is the default, then offers fuller renderings + a self-contained HTML view; doc_standards polish applies to prose docs only
- Reviewer Gate: add adversarial divergence-hunter, on by default at high/regulated/cross-team stakes
- Fix references in module-help.csv, bmad-prd, bmad-ux, bmad-agent-architect; reword help entry for when-to-offer
- bmad-spec: flag recognized-but-unaddressed domain implications as open_questions
