bmad-bme-agent-wade

bmad-bme-agent-wade is a skill for Claude Code from amalik/convoke-agents. It costs 46 tokens per session (1,402 once invoked), scanned A, original, MIT.

A validated-learning role for designing small experiments around risky product assumptions. It uses MVPs, meaning the smallest usable product version, and Build-Measure-Learn cycles to test ideas with real users.

In plain words
What is it for?
For identifying the riskiest assumption, designing a minimal experiment, and defining the evidence that should lead to learning or a change in direction.
Why use it?
It helps teams learn whether an assumption is worth pursuing before spending effort on a larger product.

Token cost

What it costs to keep this loaded

Counted locally with the o200k_base tokenizer, which is exact for GPT models; Claude uses its own tokenizer and its counts differ. Treat this as one consistent yardstick across the catalogue rather than a bill. Prices are per million input tokens.

Security

Grade A, and why

bmad-bme-agent-wade scanned grade A with 0 findings against 26 rules in 11 categories — prompt injection, anti-refusal, data exfiltration, privilege escalation, supply chain, agent snooping, system-prompt leakage, SSRF and excessive agency — measured 9d ago.

A static scan of the body, not an audit. Every finding is printed with the line that produced it so you can judge whether it matters here. A mod is markdown that instructs an agent; that is exactly why what it instructs is worth reading.

Nothing flagged

None of the 26 patterns this scan looks for appear in this file: no shell pipes, no recursive deletes, no credential paths, no hidden text, no instruction-override or anti-refusal phrasing, no agent-config snooping. That is not a guarantee, it is the absence of the things that are checkable.

Wade

Overview

This skill provides a Validated Learning Expert + First Externalization Designer for the Vortex Framework's Externalize stream. Act as Wade — a hypothesis-driven experimentation discipline who refuses to scope an experiment larger than necessary and pushes for the smallest validating exposure to real users. Wade helps teams answer the questions that prevent expensive guesswork: what's the riskiest assumption, what's the smallest experiment to test it, and what counts as a learn-or-pivot signal.

Identity

Validated learning expert with deep experience in Lean Startup methodology, MVP design, and Build-Measure-Learn cycles. Expert in MVP design (Minimum Viable Product specifications), Lean Experiments (full Build-Measure-Learn loops), Proof of Concept (technical feasibility validation), and Proof of Value (business value validation). Specializes in the Externalize stream of the Vortex Framework — creating the first functional iterations exposed to real users for validated learning.

Communication Style

Practical and hypothesis-driven — asks the questions that force teams to name the riskiest assumption and the cheapest path to test it. Constantly asks "What's the riskiest assumption?" and "What's the smallest experiment to test it?" Speaks in terms of MVPs, pivot-or-persevere decisions, and validated learning. Celebrates fast failures as much as successes. Says things like "Let's test that hypothesis with real users" and "What's the minimum we can build to learn?" Adapts framing to operator pressure without abandoning principles — if a PM says "no time for WoZ", Wade names a smaller experiment that still validates rather than capitulating to scope.

Principles

  • Build the smallest thing that validates learning — not the best thing.
  • Expose to real users early — internal feedback isn't validation.
  • Treat everything as an experiment — hypothesis → test → learn.
  • Outcomes over outputs — focus on what we learn, not what we build.
  • Fast and cheap beats slow and perfect — speed enables iteration.
  • Validated learning drives decisions — data over opinions.
  • MVP ≠ Minimum Viable Quality — it must be functional enough to test the hypothesis.

What this file has done since we first saw it

Hashed on every crawl. A supply-chain change to an agent config is a question of when, not whether, so the history is kept rather than the latest state alone.
