What it does
Bmad Tech Spec is an agent skill from aj-geddes/claude-code-bmad-skills. Quick Flow lightweight technical specification for small-scope work (1-15 stories). Replaces the full PRD + architecture pair when scope is small and requirements are clear. Produces bmad-output/tech-spec.md as the single planning artifact before story creation. Use when the user says: "write a tech spec", "create a technical specification", "I need a tech spec for this feature", "quick spec", "small project spec", "we don't need a full PRD", "just a tech spec", "spec out this change", "document this feature"…
Its SKILL.md is about 1.6k tokens, which your agent loads only when the skill is triggered. The skill folder holds 2 other files (for example `templates/tech-spec.template.md`).
It sits in Product & Project Management, covering PRD writing. 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: write a tech spec
- Create a technical specification
- I need a tech spec for this feature
- Small project spec
Example prompts
- “write a tech spec”
- “create a technical specification”
- “I need a tech spec for this feature”
- “/bmad-tech-spec”
Requirements
- Pre-approved tools (allowed-tools): Read, Write, Edit, Glob, Grep, WebSearch, WebFetch, TodoWrite
Workflow steps
5 steps, taken from the step headings in SKILL.md.
- Identify intent
- Gather context
- Draft or revise
- Write output
- Confirm next steps
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:
ReadWriteEditGlobGrepWebSearchWebFetchTodoWrite
From allowed-tools in the SKILL.md frontmatter.
Runs code
No scripts in the folder and no shell commands in SKILL.md.
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 Tech Spec loads about 1.6k tokens when it runs. Until then it costs about 230 tokens; SKILL.md has 681 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 passed
The automated check found no risky patterns in SKILL.md.
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); files beside SKILL.md 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 681 words (~1,576 tokens).
“This skill produces a focused tech-spec.md for Quick Flow work: small, well-scoped features or changes that sit in the 1-15 story range. It consolidates the product rationale, technical approach, and story backlog into a single lightweight document, skipping the separate…”
