What it does
Bmad Testarch Trace is an agent skill from bmad-code-org/bmad-method-test-architecture-enterprise. Generate traceability matrix and quality gate decision. Use when the user says "lets create traceability matrix" or "I want to analyze test coverage"
Its SKILL.md is about 1.1k tokens, which your agent loads only when the skill is triggered. The skill folder holds 81 other files (for example `checklist.md`, `instructions.md` and `resources/knowledge/adr-quality-readiness-checklist.md`).
It sits in Testing & QA, covering Quality gates and Test coverage. The repository describes itself as: Test Architect Full BMad Method Enhancement.
When your agent uses it
- The user says lets create traceability matrix
- I want to analyze test coverage
Example prompts
- “lets create traceability matrix”
- “I want to analyze test coverage”
- “/bmad-testarch-trace”
Workflow steps
8 steps, taken from the step headings in SKILL.md.
- Resolve the Workflow Block
- Execute Prepend Steps
- Load Persistent Facts
- Load Config
- Greet the User
- Execute Append Steps
- Mode Determination
- Route to First Step
What it can do on your machine
Read from SKILL.md and the folder at commit 5af89cc. It shows what the files ask for, not the result of running them.
Tool permissions
Pre-approves nothing: there is no allowed-tools line, so your agent's usual permission prompts apply.
From allowed-tools in the SKILL.md frontmatter.
Runs code
Shell commands in SKILL.md call:
uv
From the folder's file list and the shell code blocks in SKILL.md.
Network
No URLs in SKILL.md. Its commands use uv, which can reach the network depending on how they are called.
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 Testarch Trace loads about 1.1k tokens when it runs. Until then it costs about 42 tokens; SKILL.md has 481 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 481 words (~1,094 tokens).
“Goal: Generate a requirements-or-journeys-to-tests traceability matrix, analyze coverage, and make a quality gate decision (PASS / CONCERNS / FAIL / WAIVED).”
