What problem does it solve?
This Skill helps teams turn product requirements into a structured architecture document that AI agents and developers can implement consistently. It reduces ambiguity in technical decisions, project structure, and coding patterns that would otherwise lead to conflicting implementations.
Core Features & Use Cases
- Collaborative architecture workflow: Guides the user through initialization, context analysis, starter selection, core decisions, implementation patterns, project structure, validation, and handoff.
- Consistency-focused decision making: Captures naming conventions, API formats, structure rules, and process patterns so multiple AI agents can build compatible code.
- Workflow recovery and continuation: Detects existing architecture work, summarizes progress, and resumes from the appropriate step.
- Use Case: When a team has a PRD and wants a complete solution design before implementation, this Skill produces an architecture document with validated decisions, mapped requirements, and a concrete project tree.
Quick Start
Ask the AI to use bmad-create-architecture to create a technical architecture from your PRD and guide you step by step through the solution design.
