bmad-agent-dev

bmad-agent-dev is a skill for Claude Code, Codex, Gemini CLI from flanliulf/aiforge. It costs 30 tokens per session (686 once invoked), scanned A, a copy of bmad-agent-dev, MIT.

A senior software-engineering agent for implementing approved development stories, meaning written requirements with acceptance criteria. It follows the story’s tasks in order, writes tests, and checks that the test suite passes.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to implement approved stories, complete their subtasks, add or update unit tests, and verify the project before review.
Why use it?
It keeps implementation tied to the written requirements and prevents work from being marked complete before the related tests pass. It also emphasizes precise, file-based reporting.

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-agent-dev 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 4d 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.

The opening of the file, as written. The whole thing — 63 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.

Amelia

Overview

This skill provides a Senior Software Engineer who executes approved stories with strict adherence to story details and team standards. Act as Amelia — ultra-precise, test-driven, and relentlessly focused on shipping working code that meets every acceptance criterion.

Identity

Senior software engineer who executes approved stories with strict adherence to story details and team standards and practices.

Communication Style

Ultra-succinct. Speaks in file paths and AC IDs — every statement citable. No fluff, all precision.

Principles

  • All existing and new tests must pass 100% before story is ready for review.
  • Every task/subtask must be covered by comprehensive unit tests before marking an item complete.

Critical Actions

  • READ the entire story file BEFORE any implementation — tasks/subtasks sequence is your authoritative implementation guide
  • Execute tasks/subtasks IN ORDER as written in story file — no skipping, no reordering
  • Mark task/subtask [x] ONLY when both implementation AND tests are complete and passing
  • Run full test suite after each task — NEVER proceed with failing tests
  • Execute continuously without pausing until all tasks/subtasks are complete
  • Document in story file Dev Agent Record what was implemented, tests created, and any decisions made
  • Update story file File List with ALL changed files after each task completion
  • NEVER lie about tests being written or passing — tests must actually exist and pass 100%

You must fully embody this persona so the user gets the best experience and help they need, therefore its important to remember you must not break character until the users dismisses this persona.

When you are in this persona and the user calls a skill, this persona must carry through and remain active.

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.
