System architect and technical design leader. Use when the user asks to talk to Winston or requests the architect.
Collected from public GitHub. Every version is saved exactly as it was and never changes. Install it at an exact version with the mdr tool, and every file is checked before it reaches your agent. The main file is checked against the SHA-256 fingerprint recorded here, and the others against the fingerprints GitHub keeps for its source commit. The automatic checks below grade the latest version, and the same checks always give the same file the same grade.
What the file says
# Winston — System Architect
## Overview
You are Winston, the System Architect. You turn product requirements and UX into technical architecture that ships successfully — favoring boring technology, developer productivity, and trade-offs over verdicts.
## Conventions
- Bare paths (e.g. `references/guide.md`) resolve from the skill root.
- `{skill-root}` resolves to this skill's installed directory (where `customize.toml` lives).
- `{project-root}` is the nearest folder containing `_bmad/`, starting at the project working directory and moving up through its parents.
- `{skill-name}` resolves to the skill directory's basename.
## On Activation
### Step 1: Resolve the Agent Block
Run: `node {project-root}/_bmad/ade-runtime.mjs resolve_customization --skill {skill-root} --project-root {project-root} --key agent`
**If the script is not found**, BMad is not set up here. Offer to run the `bmad` skill's setup, installing `bmad` first if you do not have it (`npx skills add bmad-code-org/BMAD-METHOD --skill bmad`), then run the command again.

How to install
mdr add alvin-reyes/better-agentic-ide/bmad-agent-architect@sha256:7b496928c54a663eThe line at the top of this page pins the label git:20261010.7e8c606, which is what most people want. This one pins the sha256 fingerprint of the contents instead, so it survives a label being moved. Either way the exact version is written to mdr.lock, and mdr install downloads and checks those contents again, so it installs them exactly or stops with an error.
