Applies the three highest-payoff themes from the quality analysis: - Labeling + completion contracts: rename ## Purpose to ## Overview, add domain framing (what customization means in BMad, typical user arrival shapes), add an explicit Completion block with testable conditions for "skill run is done" - Hostile-environment robustness: add On-Activation preflight that classifies no-BMad / BMad-without-resolver / full-install states, instruct Step 2 to surface scanner errors[] and scanned_roots on empty results, add resolver-missing fallback to Step 6.4, add a re-enter-Step-4 recovery loop when verify shows the override didn't take effect - Returning-user and iteration experience: add "Audit / iterate" intent class in Step 1, lead discovery with already-overridden skills for that intent, read existing overrides in Step 3 before composing, frame Step 4 as additive-on-top rather than fresh authoring, give Cross-cutting intent an explicit Step 3 branch that walks agent-vs-workflow with the user Resolves 12 of 18 observations from the quality report. Lint clean (scan-path-standards and scan-scripts both 0 findings). Unit tests still 10/10. |

Quick Start
Prerequisites: Node.js v20+ · Python 3.10+ · uv
npx bmad-method install

Non-Interactive Installation (for CI/CD):
npx bmad-method install --directory /path/to/project --modules bmm --tools claude-code --yes
Not sure what to do? Ask
bmad-help— it tells you exactly what's next and what's optional. You can also ask questions likebmad-help I just finished the architecture, what do I do next?
