bwai-advisor

bwai-advisor is a skill for Claude Code, Codex from johnku2011/boilerplates-with-ai-skills. It costs 38 tokens per session (1,197 once invoked), scanned A, original, MIT.

A planning assistant for choosing a bwai project starter template before creating a project. It first helps shape a product idea, then maps the result to a boilerplate and provides the exact creation command.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it before scaffolding a bwai project when you need either a full product-planning workflow or a quick boilerplate recommendation.
Why use it?
It helps turn an unclear idea into a more specific starting plan and avoids choosing a project template without first defining the product goal.

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

bwai-advisor 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 13d 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.

How it starts

The opening of the file, as written. The whole thing — 147 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.

bwai Advisor

Use this skill when you have a product idea but haven't scaffolded yet. It runs the full startup-goal workflow to shape your goal, then maps the output to the right bwai boilerplate and gives you the exact command to run.

Required Companion Skill

  • startup-goal — runs first; the full intake loop, role subagents, and decision log are all startup-goal's responsibility. bwai-advisor adds only the final scaffold recommendation on top.

If startup-goal is unavailable, stop and tell the user to install both:

npx bwai-cli install-skill bwai-advisor --global

That command installs bwai-advisor and its companion startup-goal into the user's global agent skill directories.

Mode Choice

At the start, pick a mode (ask once if unclear):

Mode When What you run
Full (default) Idea is fuzzy; need PRD + roles Full startup-goal, then scaffold recommendation
Quick pick Stack/product type is already clear, or user asks only for a boilerplate Skip role bench; recommend from signals + catalog

Also use Quick pick when the user says the idea doc is an approved brief.

Idea Document Input

If the user points at a markdown (or other) idea brief — via @file.md, a path, or "read this doc" — treat that file as the starting hypothesis:

  1. Read the file before asking intake questions.
  2. Skip questions the document already answers clearly.
  3. Only ask about missing or ambiguous high-risk unknowns.

How to Run (Full mode)

  1. Follow the startup-goal skill — intake loop, role subagents, decision log.
  2. Once the decision log is ready, continue to Scaffold Recommendation.

Scaffold Recommendation

After the brief is ready, choose a boilerplate using live catalog data when available, then fall back to the table below.

Prefer live catalog

If the bwai / bwai-cli CLI is available, run:

bwai list-boilerplates

Use the printed names, stacks, and descriptions to pick the best match for the goal. Prefer an exact catalog name over inventing a new one.

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.
