How does this skill save tokens in Claude Code?

By calling an external Python script to handle document generation from templates, the skill avoids having Claude manually output hundreds of lines of boilerplate text, saving approximately 2,300 tokens per session.

What specific documents does the BMAD Planner generate?

It generates requirements.md (business logic), architecture.md (technical design), and epics.md (project breakdown), along with CLAUDE.md and README.md for context.

Which branch should I be on to use the BMAD Planner?

The tool is designed to be used in the main repository on a contribution branch (prefixed with 'contrib/'), ensuring planning stays organized before a worktree is created.

What does BMAD stand for?

BMAD stands for Business Model, Architecture, and Design. It is a framework used to ensure all aspects of a feature are planned before development begins.

Automates the creation of comprehensive software planning documents through an interactive three-persona Q&A system.

关于

BMAD Planner is a specialized Claude Code skill designed to streamline the pre-development phase by generating high-quality Business Model, Architecture, and Design (BMAD) documentation. By utilizing an interactive Python-based tool, it guides users through a structured Q&A session involving three distinct personas—Analyst, Architect, and Project Manager—to produce detailed requirements, technical designs, and epic breakdowns. This systematic approach ensures project consistency and clarity while drastically reducing token usage by up to 92% compared to manual planning sessions, making it an essential tool for efficient AI-assisted software development.
