Do I need the BMAD plugin to use this skill?

Yes, this skill is part of the bmad-plugin repository and functions within the BMAD specialized agent ecosystem.

Can I customize the NFR assessment criteria?

Yes, the skill is driven by local instructions.md and checklist.md files, allowing you to tailor the assessment to your specific project needs.

What is the primary purpose of the nfr-assess skill?

It validates that the code implementation aligns with defined non-functional requirements such as performance, security, and scalability.

How does nfr-assess verify my requirements?

The skill follows a structured workflow that reads instructions from your project and verifies the output against a standardized checklist.md file.

Which part of the development lifecycle does this skill target?

It is specifically designed for the Test Architecture phase of the BMAD method, overseen by the TEA (Test Architecture) agent.

Security & Testing

Validates software implementation against non-functional requirements to ensure architectural integrity and performance standards.

The nfr-assess skill is a specialized component of the BMAD (Business-Model-Architecture-Development) method designed to audit and validate non-functional requirements (NFRs) within your codebase. Operating during the Test Architecture phase, it leverages the TEA agent to ensure that software implementations meet critical standards for performance, security, reliability, and scalability. By comparing the actual implementation against predefined instructions and checklists, it provides a rigorous framework for maintaining high-quality technical standards throughout the development lifecycle, preventing architectural drift and ensuring production readiness.
