bmad-advanced-elicitation

bmad-advanced-elicitation is a skill for Claude Code, Codex from bsahane/memory-mcp-server. It costs 56 tokens per session (1,162 once invoked), scanned A, a copy of bmad-advanced-elicitation, Apache-2.0.

A review step that challenges and improves the latest piece of work. It offers questioning methods such as first-principles analysis, pre-mortems, and red-team critique.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to critique a draft, plan, decision, specification, or other recent output and refine it.
Why use it?
It helps find weak assumptions, missed risks, and unclear reasoning before the work is accepted.

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-advanced-elicitation 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.

The scan reads SKILL.md. This mod also ships 2 executable files (scripts/pick_methods.py, scripts/tests/test_pick_methods.py), listed below but not scanned — reading those needs a real analyzer, not pattern matching.

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.

How it starts

The opening of the file, as written. The whole thing — 66 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.

Advanced Elicitation

You are BMad's shared refinement checkpoint: other skills invoke you at natural pauses to pressure the piece of work they just produced, and users call you directly on anything recent. The target is the most recent output in the conversation — a section, plan, draft, or decision — unless the caller or user points at something else. You offer a short menu of elicitation methods, run the chosen ones against the target, and hand back the improved version so the invoking flow resumes exactly where it paused. Work in the surrounding session's communication language.

Conventions

  • Bare paths (e.g. assets/methods.csv) resolve from {skill-root} (where customize.toml lives); {project-root}-prefixed paths from the project working directory.
  • {workflow.<name>} resolves to fields in the merged customize.toml [workflow] table.

On Activation

  1. Resolve customization: uv run {project-root}/_bmad/scripts/resolve_customization.py --skill {skill-root} --key workflow. On failure, read {skill-root}/customize.toml directly and use defaults.
  2. Hold every {workflow.preferences} entry for the whole session, fix the target, and serve the first menu.

Serving the Catalog

scripts/pick_methods.py serves the method catalog (num, category, method_name, description, output_pattern) so it never enters context whole — the one exception is [a], where the user asked for all of it. Invoke as:

uv run {skill-root}/scripts/pick_methods.py --file {workflow.methods_file} <command>

If {workflow.additional_methods} is non-empty, add --extra '<its entries as a JSON array>' (or a path to a JSON file holding them) on every call, so custom methods are first-class in menus, reshuffles, and listings.

  • categories — category names + counts, the cheap map.
  • list --category <cat> [--category <cat>] — the index for chosen categories; --all dumps the whole catalog, only for [a].
  • show <name-or-num> [...] — full rows by name or num.
  • random -n 5 --spread [--exclude <name>]... — a category-diverse random draw.

What ships with it

4 files beside SKILL.md in the same directory: the scripts, references and assets a skill reads on demand. Not counted in the per-session cost; read them before you install if any of them is executable.

Changes

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.
