"It then stores the index in files with the same prefix and the .fmsi extension." - this is a bit misleading – suggests an .fmsi file, but it's still a prefix.

It's a bit unclear why there three files for the bwt:

.ac_gt, .ac and .gt for storing the BWT

Also, it's unclear, and should be explained, whether it's stored as the resulting wavelet tree, or the actual BWT (like eg in BWA). The same for mask.

Thanks, all of this should be resolved now.
