From the project READMERun the following command exactly once without changing the current working directory.
Replace {project-root} with the nearest folder containing _bmad/, from the working directory upward.
Replace {skill-root} with the absolute path to this skill's directory.
If the invocation asks for a quick or thorough review, append --set workflow.review=<value> to the command.
If the invocation asks for a no-code review, append --set workflow.fixes=handoff to the command.
If the invocation is clearly non-interactive -- it says not to ask questions, or a bot, a CI job or another workflow is running the review -- append --set workflow.interactive=false. When in doubt, don't.
uv run --no-cache "{project-root}/_bmad/scripts/render_skill.py" --project-root "{project-root}" --skill "{skill-root}"
- The command prints the skill's workflow: follow it.
HALT: <reason>: report the reason and stop. - If the script does not exist, BMad is not set up in this project yet. Offer to set it up using
bmadskill, then run the command again. If you do not have thebmadskill, offer to install it first. - On any other output or failure, including
uvbeing unavailable, report the command output and stop. Do not run any workflow source directly.
