# Manifest Reference
Every BMad skill has a `bmad-manifest.json` at its root. This is the unified format for agents, workflows, and simple skills.
## File Location
```
{skillname}/
├── SKILL.md # name, description, persona content
├── bmad-manifest.json # Capabilities, module integration, persona distillate
└── ...
```
## SKILL.md Frontmatter (Minimal)
```yaml
---
name: bmad-{modulecode}-{skillname}
description: [5-8 word summary]. [Use when user says 'X' or 'Y'.]
---
```
## bmad-manifest.json
**NOTE:** Do NOT include `$schema` in generated manifests. The schema is used by validation tooling only — it is not part of the delivered skill.
```json
{
"module-code": "bmb",
"replaces-skill": "bmad-original-agent",
"persona": "A succinct distillation of who this agent is and how they operate.",
"has-memory": true,
"capabilities": [
{
"name": "build",
"menu-code": "BP",
"description": "Builds agents through conversational discovery. Outputs to skill folder.",
"supports-headless": true,
"prompt": "build-process.md",
"phase-name": "anytime",
"after": ["create-prd"],
"before": [],
"is-required": false,
"output-location": "{bmad_builder_output_folder}"
},
{
"name": "external-tool",
"menu-code": "ET",
"description": "Delegates to another registered skill.",
"supports-headless": false,
"skill-name": "bmad-some-other-skill"
}
]
}
```
## Field Reference
### Top-Level Fields
| Field | Type | Required | Purpose |
|-------|------|----------|---------|
| `module-code` | string | If module | Short code for namespacing (e.g., `bmb`, `cis`) |
| `replaces-skill` | string | No | Registered skill name this replaces. Inherits metadata during bmad-init. |
| `persona` | string | Agents only | Succinct distillation of the agent's essence. **Presence = this is an agent.** |
| `has-memory` | boolean | No | Whether state persists across sessions via sidecar memory |
### Capability Fields
| Field | Type | Required | Purpose |
|-------|------|----------|---------|
| `name` | string | Yes | Kebab-case identifier |
| `menu-code` | string | Yes | 2-3 uppercase letter shortcut for menus |
| `description` | string | Yes | What it does and when to suggest it |
| `supports-autonomous` | boolean | No | Can run without user interaction |
| `prompt` | string | No | Relative path to prompt file (internal capability) |
| `skill-name` | string | No | Registered name of external skill (external capability) |
| `phase-name` | string | No | Module phase this belongs to |
| `after` | array | No | Skill names that should run before this capability |
| `before` | array | No | Skill names this capability should run before |
| `is-required` | boolean | No | If true, skills in `before` are blocked until this completes |
| `output-location` | string | No | Where output goes (may use config variables) |
### Three Capability Flavors
1. **Has `prompt`** — internal capability routed to a prompt file
2. **Has `skill-name`** — delegates to another registered skill
3. **Has neither** — SKILL.md handles it directly
### The `replaces-skill` Field
When set, the skill inherits metadata from the replaced skill during `bmad-init`. Explicit fields in the new manifest override inherited values.
## Agent vs Workflow vs Skill
No type field needed — inferred from content:
- **Has `persona`** → agent
- **No `persona`** → workflow or skill (distinction is complexity, not manifest structure)
## Config Loading
All module skills MUST use the `bmad-init` skill at startup.
## Path Construction Rules — CRITICAL
Only use `{project-root}` for `_bmad` paths.
**Three path types:**
- **Skill-internal** — bare relative paths (no prefix)
- **Project `_bmad` paths** — always `{project-root}/_bmad/...`
- **Config variables** — used directly, already contain `{project-root}` in their resolved values
**Correct:**
```
references/reference.md # Skill-internal (bare relative)
capability.md # Skill-internal (bare relative)
{project-root}/_bmad/_memory/x-sidecar/ # Project _bmad path
{output_folder}/report.md # Config var (already has full path)
```
**Never use:**
```
../../other-skill/file.md # Cross-skill relative path breaks with reorganization
{project-root}/{config_var}/output.md # Double-prefix
./references/reference.md # Relative prefix breaks context changes
```
