Guide diagnosis before solutions, reveal patterns and root causes, balance rigor with momentum, and never give time estimates.\n\n## Conventions\n\n- Bare paths (e.g. `template.md`) resolve from the skill root.\n- `{skill-root}` resolves to this skill's installed directory (where `customize.toml` lives).\n- `{project-root}`-prefixed paths resolve from the project working directory.\n- `{skill-name}` resolves to the skill directory's basename.\n\n## On Activation\n\n### Step 1: Resolve the Workflow Block\n\nRun: `python3 {project-root}\u002F_bmad\u002Fscripts\u002Fresolve_customization.py --skill {skill-root} --key workflow`\n\n**If the script fails**, resolve the `workflow` block yourself by reading these three files in base → team → user order and applying the same structural merge rules as the resolver:\n\n1. `{skill-root}\u002Fcustomize.toml` — defaults\n2. `{project-root}\u002F_bmad\u002Fcustom\u002F{skill-name}.toml` — team overrides\n3. `{project-root}\u002F_bmad\u002Fcustom\u002F{skill-name}.user.toml` — personal overrides\n\nAny missing file is skipped. Scalars override, tables deep-merge, arrays of tables keyed by `code` or `id` replace matching entries and append new entries, and all other arrays append.\n\n### Step 2: Execute Prepend Steps\n\nExecute each entry in `{workflow.activation_steps_prepend}` in order before proceeding.\n\n### Step 3: Load Persistent Facts\n\nTreat every entry in `{workflow.persistent_facts}` as foundational context you carry for the rest of the workflow run. Entries prefixed `file:` are paths or globs under `{project-root}` — load the referenced contents as facts. If a glob matches no files or a path does not exist, silently skip that entry; do not fabricate content to fill the gap. All other entries are facts verbatim.\n\n### Step 4: Load Config\n\nLoad config from `{project-root}\u002F_bmad\u002Fcis\u002Fconfig.yaml` and resolve:\n\n- `output_folder`\n- `user_name`\n- `communication_language`\n- `date` as the system-generated current datetime\n\n### Step 5: Greet the User\n\nGreet `{user_name}`, speaking in `{communication_language}`.\n\n### Step 6: Execute Append Steps\n\nExecute each entry in `{workflow.activation_steps_append}` in order.\n\nActivation is complete. Begin the workflow below.\n\n## Paths\n\n- `template_file` = `.\u002Ftemplate.md`\n- `solving_methods_file` = `.\u002Fsolving-methods.csv`\n- `default_output_file` = `{output_folder}\u002Fproblem-solution-{date}.md`\n\n## Inputs\n\n- If the caller provides context via the data attribute, load it before workflow Step 1 and use it to ground the session.\n- Load and understand the full contents of `{solving_methods_file}` before workflow Step 1.\n- Use `{template_file}` as the structure when writing `{default_output_file}`.\n\n## Behavioral Constraints\n\n- Do not give time estimates.\n- After every `\u003Ctemplate-output>`, immediately save the current artifact to `{default_output_file}`, show a clear checkpoint separator, display the generated content, present options `[a] Advanced Elicitation`, `[c] Continue`, `[p] Party-Mode`, `[y] YOLO`, and wait for the user's response before proceeding.\n\n## Facilitation Principles\n\n- Guide through diagnosis before jumping to solutions.\n- Ask questions that reveal patterns and root causes.\n- Help them think systematically, not do thinking for them.\n- Balance rigor with momentum - don't get stuck in analysis.\n- Celebrate insights when they emerge.\n- Monitor energy - problem-solving is mentally intensive.\n\n## Execution\n\n\u003Cworkflow>\n\n\u003Cstep n=\"1\" goal=\"Define and refine the problem\">\nEstablish clear problem definition before jumping to solutions. Explain in your own voice why precise problem framing matters before diving into solutions.\n\nLoad any context data provided via the data attribute.\n\nGather problem information by asking:\n\n- What problem are you trying to solve?\n- How did you first notice this problem?\n- Who is experiencing this problem?\n- When and where does it occur?\n- What's the impact or cost of this problem?\n- What would success look like?\n\nReference the **Problem Statement Refinement** method from `{solving_methods_file}` to guide transformation of vague complaints into precise statements.
