Single-skill module

One folder that is both a module record and the module's only skill. It is the default offer for a standalone skill that needs its own config questions or wants bmad to know it: setup asks its questions, help answers from its document, updates are checked, and there is no second folder to install.

When the conversation is here

The read-back names one skill, nothing else ships with it, and either it needs an answer that belongs to the project rather than the session (an output folder, a file it maintains, a style) or the user wants bmad to know it: recommend it from help, set it up, check it for updates. A skill with neither, whose user wants none of that, is a plain skill and needs no record. A second skill arriving later turns this into shapes/multi-skill-module/shape.md: the record moves to a bmod-<code>/ folder and this bmod.toml keeps only [skill].

Files

• bmod.toml from assets/bmod-template.toml: [bmod] with code, version, update_source, required_skills, the questions, both install messages (empty when unused), and an empty [skill]. A skill with nothing to ask drops the [[bmod.config_questions]] block rather than shipping a placeholder question.
• SKILL.md and the rest of the skill from whichever skill shape the read-back chose; this shape adds only the record.
• help/help.md from assets/help-template.md: what the skill gives the user and when to recommend it, written for the bmad help agent.

Rules

• code is the config namespace and what the user types in bmad setup <code>: short, lowercase, not a module the user already has. The folder name is free, because bmad finds a module by the [bmod] table, never by folder name.
• The skill reads every answer as modules.<code>.<key>: uv run {project-root}/_bmad/scripts/resolve_config.py --project-root {project-root} --key modules.<code>.<key>. Nothing a question could hold is hardcoded.
• A question is key, prompt, default and optional scope = "team"|"user", no other keys. key is not the code and does not start with <code>., since the namespace already says it. scope = "user" for a personal preference; a path the team shares stays team. Defaults keep {project-root} literal.
• required_skills lists { skill = "bmad", version = "{bmad_version}", source = "github:bmad-code-org/BMAD-METHOD/skills" }, because the skill runs _bmad/scripts; {bmad_version} is the version in the bmod-core-tools record installed beside {skill-root}, asked of the user when it is not installed. Add any other skill it invokes.
• update_source is where npx skills add fetches the skill from, github:<owner>/<repo> or github:<owner>/<repo>/<path>; ask when it is not in the conversation.

Fill a template with uv run {skill-root}/scripts/process_template.py <template> -o <dest> --var key=value ... --true <condition> ...; a {if-X}...{/if-X} block survives only when --true X is given, and {project-root} passes through untouched.
