Getting it into your agent
One page per mod, every tool's command on it. A separate URL per tool would split the same page into five that compete with each other.

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.
| Model | Per session | Once invoked |
|---|---|---|
| Fable 5.1 | $0.00051 | $0.00936 |
| Opus 5 | $0.00026 | $0.00468 |
| Sonnet 5 | $0.00010 | $0.00187 |
| Haiku 4.5 | $0.00005 | $0.00094 |
Grade A, and why
bmad-help 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 6d 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.
This is a copy
100% identical to bmad-help — 0 lines differ, which has more behind it and is treated as the original. This page carries a canonical link to it rather than competing with it.
How it starts
The opening of the file, as written. The whole thing — 76 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.
BMad Help
Purpose
Help the user understand where they are in their BMad workflow and what to do next, and also answer broader questions when asked that could be augmented with remote sources such as module documentation sources.
Desired Outcomes
When this skill completes, the user should:
- Know where they are — which module and phase they're in, what's already been completed
- Know what to do next — the next recommended and/or required step, with clear reasoning
- Know how to invoke it — skill name, menu code, action context, and any args that shortcut the conversation
- Get offered a quick start — when a single skill is the clear next step, offer to run it for the user right now rather than just listing it
- Feel oriented, not overwhelmed — surface only what's relevant to their current position; don't dump the entire catalog
- Get answers to general questions — when the question doesn't map to a specific skill, use the module's registered documentation to give a grounded answer
Data Sources
- Catalog:
{project-root}/_bmad/_config/bmad-help.csv— assembled manifest of all installed module skills - Config:
config.yamlanduser-config.yamlfiles in{project-root}/_bmad/and its subfolders — resolveoutput-locationvariables, providecommunication_languageandproject_knowledge - Artifacts: Files matching
outputspatterns at resolvedoutput-locationpaths reveal which steps are possibly completed; their content may also provide grounding context for recommendations - Project knowledge: If
project_knowledgeresolves to an existing path, read it for grounding context. Never fabricate project-specific details. - Module docs: Rows with
_metain theskillcolumn carry a URL or path inoutput-locationpointing to the module's documentation (e.g., llms.txt). Fetch and use these to answer general questions about that module.
CSV Interpretation
The catalog uses this format:
module,skill,display-name,menu-code,description,action,args,phase,after,before,required,output-location,outputs
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.

bmad-help is a skill published in the GitHub repository flanliulf/SpecLite (4 stars, last pushed 2mo ago), licensed MIT. It adds 51 tokens to every session and 936 once invoked, about $0.0003 per session on Opus 5. A static security scan graded it A with 0 findings. It is 100% identical to bmad-help, differing in 0 lines, and is treated as a copy.
Other skills, from other repositories
lain
Structural code intelligence for AI coding agents. Use this skill when the user wants to understand how a codebase is organized (modules, call graphs, file dependencies), find where to start reading, trace the impact of a change, find code by meaning, or understand what a symbol does in its full context. Do NOT use…
botpipe-workflow-authoring
Author, review, and improve Botpipe workflows. Use when Codex is asked to create packaged or workspace-local Botpipe workflows, convert codebases into workflows, design provider-heavy producer/verifier steps, write Botpipe prompts/contracts, inspect Botpipe traces, or apply Codex CLI/gpt-5.5 workflow patterns.
intake
The planning front-door. Captures feature ideas and bugs as graded rows in the root INTAKE.md ledger. Use it when the user says "log an idea", "capture a bug", "add to the backlog", "note this down", "track this feature", or invokes /intake. Owns the requirements interview — fleshes out thin ideas, proactively…
merge
The ship gate — the only skill that merges. --staging merges the feature→staging PR on green CI, deploys, verifies, emits a human test script and stamps the staging sign-off on approval. --production ships the double-confirmed release to main and deploys production. Never self-certifies staging; nothing reaches main…
pre-merge
The CI gate. Takes a feature branch from "eng says done" to "PR open against staging with green checks". Runs the project's preflight-resolved pipeline from devkit/policy.json components[]: sync → parallel correctness + security waves → coverage → regression tail → security/migration → PRD-consistency → open PR. Emits…
msg
Root menu for msg skills, plus harness modes. --init is the one-time project bootstrap — use it when the user says "initialise project", "bootstrap repo", "set up the framework", "start a new project", or asks to set up project structure in an empty repo. Other modes: --init-staging (add a staging branch), --update…
