SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

What problem does it solve? This Skill preserves backward compatibility for workflows that still invoke the deprecated bmad-editorial-review command, routing them to the consolidated bmad-review skill without breaking existing overrides. ## Core Features & Use Cases - Deprecation Shim: Redirects all invocations to bmad-review using its structure and prose lenses, running structure first so prose builds on structure findings. - Legacy Override Resolution: Resolves legacy customization fields (reader_type, style_guide, review_guidance, output_preferences, and others) from customize.toml and forwards only non-empty values as pre-resolved inputs to bmad-review. - Legacy Output Format: Presents findings in the original two-pass table format with purpose/audience read and a reduction summary when the structure pass ran. - Use Case: A team with existing bmad-editorial-review override files upgrades to bmad-review; this shim keeps their custom style guides and reader types working without rewriting configuration. ## Quick Start Ask the assistant to run an editorial review on your document and it will forward the request to bmad-review with the structure and prose lenses.

Frequently Asked Questions about bmad-editorial-review

High-intent search queries and answers about installing and using this skill.

FAQPage Schema
How do I run an editorial review with the deprecated bmad-editorial-review skill?▼

Invoke it as before and it forwards the request to bmad-review with the structure and prose lenses, structure first. The findings are presented in the legacy two-pass table format with original text, revised text, and changes.

What is the difference between bmad-editorial-review and bmad-review?▼

bmad-editorial-review is deprecated and merged into bmad-review. It now acts only as a forwarding shim that invokes bmad-review's structure and prose lenses while preserving legacy overrides and output formatting.

Will my old bmad-editorial-review customization overrides still work?▼

Yes. Overrides in bmad-editorial-review.toml and bmad-editorial-review.user.toml still resolve and are passed to bmad-review as pre-resolved values. Only non-empty fields are forwarded; empty fields fall through to bmad-review defaults.

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

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

Where should new customization for editorial reviews go?▼

New customization belongs in bmad-review's customize.toml. The bmad-editorial-review customize.toml exists only for legacy override resolution and is overwritten on every update.
