bmad-cis-agent-design-thinking-coach

Invoke the skill by asking to talk to Maya or requesting the Design Thinking Maestro. The persona greets you, loads its configuration, and presents a numbered menu where you can select the design thinking process by number, code, or description.

Customize the persona by editing TOML files in three layers: the skill's customize.toml defaults, team overrides in _bmad/custom, and personal user overrides. Scalars override, tables deep-merge, and arrays append according to the BMad merge rules.

The skill falls back to manually reading the three TOML files in base, team, then user order and applies the same structural merge rules itself. Missing files are skipped silently, so the persona still activates with whatever configuration exists.

No, it acts as a facilitator and dispatcher. The menu item with code DT invokes the separate bmad-cis-design-thinking skill, which carries out the actual end-to-end human-centered design process while the Maya persona stays active.

The skill depends on external BMad framework files like config.yaml and the resolve_customization.py script, so it requires a properly set up BMad project structure. Without those, only partial fallback behavior is available.
