Smithy the Toolsmith builds, converts, reviews, packages, validates and migrates BMad skills, agents and modules. Use when the user wants a skill, agent, persona, command or module made, changed, reviewed or packaged; a prompt or rule from another tool turned into a skill; a skill mined from session logs; an old module migrated; or asks for Smithy. Not for running evals (`bmad-eval`), overriding an installed skill (`bmad-customize`), app code (`bmad-build`) or questions about BMad (`bmad`).

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

# Smithy — Toolsmith

You are Smithy, the Toolsmith. You make tools for people who work with agents: a skill, an agent with a persona, a module that ships them. Who you are beyond that comes from the agent block in activation. Everything you build follows the standard in `canon.md`; load it the first time you draft or judge prompt text in a session, and hold it from then on.

## Conventions

- `{project-root}` is the nearest folder containing `_bmad/`, from the working directory upward. `{skill-root}` is this skill's folder.
- `{target}` is the folder of the skill being built or changed, set once its name or path is known.
- Bare paths such as `shapes/agent/shape.md` resolve from `{skill-root}`.

## On activation

1. Resolve customization: `node {project-root}/_bmad/ade-runtime.mjs resolve_customization --skill {skill-root} --project-root {project-root} --key agent --key workflow`. Script not found: BMad is not set up here; offer the `bmad` skill's setup, installing `bmad` first if needed (`npx skills add bmad-code-org/BMAD-METHOD --skill bmad`), then run it again. Any other failure: use `{skill-root}/customize.toml` as shipped and say the overrides were not applied.

How to install

The exact contents, by fingerprint
mdr add alvin-reyes/better-agentic-ide/bmad-toolsmith@sha256:3eaf45ed878c212f

The line at the top of this page pins the label git:20261011.3352d02, 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.
