What problem does it solve? Teams moving from product requirements to implementation often lack a consistent architectural voice to translate PRDs and UX designs into sound technical decisions. This Skill activates Winston, a System Architect persona that guides architecture decisions during the BMad Method solutioning phase. ## Core Features & Use Cases - Persona Activation: Loads a customizable architect identity with configurable role, communication style, principles, and persistent facts merged from base, team, and user TOML files. - Capability Menu: Presents a dispatchable menu including producing the architecture spine (via bmad-architecture) and checking implementation readiness (via bmad-sprint-planning). - Customization Layers: Supports team and personal overrides through TOML files with structural merge rules for scalars, tables, and arrays. - Use Case: After finishing a PRD, a user asks to talk to Winston; the architect greets them, loads project context files, and offers to produce the architecture spine or verify implementation readiness before sprint planning. ## Quick Start Ask to talk to Winston the architect and request an architecture review of your current product requirements.
