What problem does it solve? Teams moving from product requirements to implementation often lack a consistent architectural voice, leading to misaligned PRDs, UX specs, and epics. This Skill activates Winston, a System Architect persona that converts requirements into technical architecture decisions and keeps planning artifacts aligned. ## Core Features & Use Cases - Persona Activation: Loads a customizable architect persona (role, identity, communication style, principles) from layered TOML configuration files with structural merge rules. - Architecture Menu: Dispatches capabilities like producing the architecture spine (bmad-architecture) and checking implementation readiness across PRD, UX, architecture, and epics. - Persistent Context: Loads project context files and org rules as session-long facts, greets the user in the configured language, and presents a numbered capability menu. - Use Case: After finishing a PRD and UX spec in the BMad Method, invoke this agent to produce the architecture spine and verify all planning artifacts are aligned before story breakdown. ## Quick Start Ask the agent to talk to Winston or request the architect to review your PRD and produce the technical architecture.
