What it does
Bmad Builder is an agent skill from aj-geddes/claude-code-bmad-skills. Meta-skill for scaffolding and validating custom PLANNING/ORCHESTRATION skills within the BMAD Planning & Orchestrator plugin. Produces the full skill directory: SKILL.md, scripts, and templates — all pre-targeted at this plugin's path conventions. Includes a scope-violation checker so newly created skills never drift into dev/lint/build/coverage territory. Use when the user says "create a skill", "scaffold a skill", "build a new planning skill", "add a skill to the orchestrator", "extend BMAD planning", "custom…
Its SKILL.md is about 1.9k tokens, which your agent loads only when the skill is triggered. The skill folder holds 6 other files, including scripts (for example `scripts/scaffold-skill.sh`, `scripts/validate-skill.sh` and `templates/document.template.md`).
It sits in Development, covering Project scaffolding, Linting and formatting and Skill authoring. The repository describes itself as: BMAD Method skills for Claude Code - Auto-detection, Memory integration, Slash commands. Transform Claude Code into a BMAD-powered development environment.
When your agent uses it
- The user says create a skill
- Scaffold a skill
- Build a new planning skill
- Add a skill to the orchestrator
Example prompts
- “create a skill”
- “scaffold a skill”
- “build a new planning skill”
- “/bmad-builder”
Requirements
- A Bash shell
- Pre-approved tools (allowed-tools): Read, Write, Edit, Bash, Glob, Grep, TodoWrite
Workflow steps
4 steps, taken from the first numbered list in SKILL.md.
- Gather requirements (use TodoWrite to track)
- Run the scaffold script to create the directory
- Fill the SKILL.md using the skill template
- Validate the new skill
What it can do on your machine
Read from SKILL.md and the folder at commit 27dca0e. It shows what the files ask for, not the result of running them.
Tool permissions
Pre-approves these tools, so the agent can use them without asking each time:
ReadWriteEditBashGlobGrepTodoWrite
From allowed-tools in the SKILL.md frontmatter.
Runs code
Ships 2 files in scripts/ (Shell), which the agent can run.
Shell commands in SKILL.md call:
bash
From the folder's file list and the shell code blocks in SKILL.md.
Network
Links to these hosts (documentation or services it may open):
github.com
From URLs in SKILL.md, links to its own repository left out.
Credentials
Names no API keys, tokens, secrets or passwords.
From names ending in _API_KEY, _TOKEN, _SECRET, _KEY or _PASSWORD in SKILL.md.
Context cost
Bmad Builder loads about 1.9k tokens when it runs. Until then it costs about 224 tokens; SKILL.md has 736 words of instructions outside code blocks.
Estimates: characters ÷ 4, the usual rule of thumb; real counts depend on the model's tokenizer. Scripts and assets cost tokens only if the agent reads them.
Safety
Auto-check: notes
The automated check noted patterns worth knowing about, such as sudo or a known installer.
- NotePre-approves every shell command (allowed-tools: Bash)SKILL.md
allowed-tools: Read, Write, Edit, Bash, Glob, Grep, TodoWrite
Automated static check — not a guarantee. Review scripts before installing. It scans the text of SKILL.md for risky patterns (piping downloads into a shell, reading credential files, hidden Unicode, destructive commands); the scripts in this folder are not scanned.
SKILL.md
Its licence (Custom licence) doesn't allow us to republish the file, so here is its outline and opening line. It has 736 words (~1,883 tokens).
“Function: Scaffold and validate custom planning/orchestration skills for the BMAD Planning & Orchestrator plugin. Produces compliant SKILL.md files, shell scripts, and templates — pre-wired to this plugin's path conventions — and runs scope-violation checks to keep new skills inside the…”
