SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

What problem does it solve? Existing workflows and customizations written against the old bmad-editorial-review skill would break after it was merged into bmad-review. This shim preserves backward compatibility by forwarding invocations and legacy overrides to the consolidated review skill. ## Core Features & Use Cases - Deprecation Forwarding: Routes every invocation to bmad-review with the structure and prose lenses, running structure first so prose builds on structure findings. - Legacy Override Resolution: Resolves old customize.toml fields (reader_type, style_guide, review_guidance, output_preferences, and more) and passes them to bmad-review as pre-resolved values. - Legacy Output Shape: Presents findings in the original two-pass table format with purpose/audience read and reduction summary. - Use Case: A team with saved bmad-editorial-review overrides in their project custom folder upgrades Akomagni; their review commands keep working unchanged because this shim translates their settings into bmad-review's configuration. ## Quick Start Ask the AI to run an editorial review on your document and it will forward the request to bmad-review with the structure and prose lenses.

FAQPage Schema
How do I run an editorial review after bmad-editorial-review was deprecated?

Invoke the bmad-review skill on your content with the structure and prose lenses, running structure first. The deprecated bmad-editorial-review skill does this forwarding automatically, so existing commands continue to work.

What happened to the bmad-editorial-review skill?

It was merged into bmad-review and now exists only as a forwarding shim. It maps its old behavior onto bmad-review's structure and prose lenses and renders output in the legacy two-pass findings table.

Will my old bmad-editorial-review customizations still work?

Yes. Overrides in bmad-editorial-review.toml or bmad-editorial-review.user.toml are resolved by the shim and passed to bmad-review as pre-resolved values. New customization should go in bmad-review's customize.toml.

Can I run only a structure or only a prose review?

Yes. If the caller requests a structure-only or prose-only review, the shim passes just that single lens to bmad-review instead of both.

Why are some of my legacy override values ignored?

Only fields that resolve to a non-empty value are forwarded to bmad-review. An empty value means no legacy override exists, so bmad-review's own default applies for that field.
