SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

What problem does it solve? This Skill preserves backward compatibility for existing invocations of the deprecated bmad-technical-research command by transparently forwarding them to the consolidated bmad-deep-recon workflow with the technical research type. ## Core Features & Use Cases - Deprecation Forwarding: Routes legacy bmad-technical-research calls to bmad-deep-recon with the technical research type pre-selected, skipping type inference. - Customization Resolution: Loads legacy override files such as _bmad/custom/bmad-technical-research.toml via the resolve_customization.py script so existing activation steps and persistent facts keep working. - Use Case: A team with an established bmad-technical-research.toml configuration can keep invoking the old skill name while receiving a deprecation notice guiding them to migrate to bmad-deep-recon for draft, process, and run research modes. ## Quick Start Invoke bmad-technical-research with your technical research question and it will forward the request to bmad-deep-recon after showing a deprecation notice.

Frequently Asked Questions about bmad-technical-research

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

FAQPage Schema
How do I run technical research with the BMAD framework?▼

Invoke bmad-deep-recon directly with the technical research type. The bmad-technical-research skill is deprecated and now only forwards calls to bmad-deep-recon, which supports draft, process, and run modes across multiple research types.

What replaced the bmad-technical-research skill?▼

bmad-deep-recon replaced bmad-technical-research. The new skill handles market, domain, technical, competitive, user-voice, and academic-lit research types, plus verification levels, HTML briefings, and handoffs.

Will my bmad-technical-research.toml customization file still work?▼

Yes, the shim resolves legacy fields like activation_steps_prepend, activation_steps_append, persistent_facts, and on_complete from bmad-technical-research.toml. To silence the deprecation notice and access the full feature set, migrate it to bmad-deep-recon.toml.

How do I silence the bmad-technical-research deprecation notice?▼

Migrate your _bmad/custom/bmad-technical-research.toml overrides to _bmad/custom/bmad-deep-recon.toml and invoke bmad-deep-recon directly. This removes the notice and unlocks the full research surface.

Does bmad-technical-research perform research itself?▼

No, it is a thin compatibility shim. It resolves legacy customizations, emits a deprecation notice, and delegates all research execution to bmad-deep-recon with the technical type pre-selected.
