-### Files Included - -``` -convert-legacy/ -├── workflow.yaml # Configuration and metadata -├── instructions.md # Step-by-step conversion guide -├── checklist.md # Validation criteria -└── README.md # This file -``` - -## Workflow Process - -### Phase 1: Legacy Analysis (Steps 1-3) - -**Item Identification and Loading** - -- Accepts file path or directory from user -- Loads complete file/folder structure for analysis -- Automatically detects item type based on content patterns: - - **Agents**: Contains `` or `` XML tags - - **Workflows**: Contains workflow YAML or instruction patterns - - **Modules**: Contains multiple organized agents/workflows - - **Tasks**: Contains `` XML tags - - **Templates**: Contains YAML-based document generators - -**Legacy Structure Analysis** - -- Parses v4 structure and extracts key components -- Maps v4 agent metadata (name, id, title, icon, persona) -- Analyzes v4 template sections and elicitation patterns -- Identifies task workflows and decision trees -- Catalogs dependencies and file references - -**Target Module Selection** - -- Prompts for target module (bmm, bmb, cis, custom) -- Determines proper installation paths using v5 conventions -- Shows target location for user confirmation -- Ensures all paths use `{project-root}/bmad/` format - -### Phase 2: Conversion Strategy (Step 4) - -**Strategy Selection Based on Item Type** - -- **Simple Agents**: Direct XML conversion with metadata mapping -- **Complex Agents**: Workflow-assisted creation using create-agent -- **Templates**: Template-to-workflow conversion with proper structure -- **Tasks**: Task-to-workflow conversion with step mapping -- **Modules**: Full module creation using create-module workflow - -**Workflow Type Determination** - -- Analyzes legacy items to determine v5 workflow type: - - **Document Workflow**: Generates documents with templates - - **Action Workflow**: Performs actions without output documents - - **Interactive Workflow**: Guides user interaction sessions - - **Meta-Workflow**: Coordinates other workflows - -### Phase 3: Conversion Execution (Steps 5a-5e) - -**Direct Agent Conversion (5a)** - -- Transforms v4 YAML agent format to v5 XML structure -- Maps persona blocks (role, style, identity, principles) -- Converts commands list to v5 `` format -- Updates task references to workflow invocations -- Normalizes all paths to v5 conventions - -**Workflow-Assisted Creation (5b-5e)** - -- Extracts key information from legacy items -- Invokes appropriate sub-workflows: - - `create-agent` for complex agent creation - - `create-workflow` for template/task conversion - - `create-module` for full module migration -- Ensures proper v5 structure and conventions - -**Template-to-Workflow Conversion (5c)** - -- Converts YAML template sections to workflow steps -- Maps `elicit: true` flags to `` tags -- Transforms conditional sections to flow control -- Creates proper template.md from content structure -- Integrates v4 create-doc.md task patterns - -**Task-to-Workflow Conversion (5e)** - -- Analyzes task purpose to determine workflow type -- Extracts step-by-step instructions to workflow steps -- Converts decision trees to flow control tags -- Maps 1-9 elicitation menus to v5 elicitation patterns -- Preserves execution logic and critical notices - -### Phase 4: Validation and Finalization (Steps 6-8) - -**Comprehensive Validation** - -- Validates XML structure for agents -- Checks YAML syntax for workflows -- Verifies template variable consistency -- Ensures proper file structure and naming - -**Migration Reporting** - -- Generates detailed conversion report -- Documents original and new locations -- Notes manual adjustments needed -- Provides warnings and recommendations - -**Cleanup and Archival** - -- Optional archival of original v4 files -- Final location confirmation -- Post-conversion instructions and next steps - -## Output - -### Generated Files - -- **Converted Items**: Proper v5 format in target module locations -- **Migration Report**: Detailed conversion documentation -- **Validation Results**: Quality assurance confirmation -

-## What is a BMAD Module? - -A module is a cohesive package that provides: - -- **Domain Expertise**: Specialized knowledge in a specific area (RPG, DevOps, Content Creation, etc.) -- **Agent Team**: Multiple AI personas with complementary skills -- **Workflows**: Guided processes for common tasks in the domain -- **Templates**: Document structures for consistent outputs -- **Integration**: Components that work together seamlessly - -## Brainstorming Goals - -Explore and define: - -### 1. Domain and Purpose - -- **What domain/problem space?** (e.g., game development, marketing, personal productivity) -- **Who is the target user?** (developers, writers, managers, hobbyists) -- **What pain points does it solve?** (tedious tasks, missing structure, need for expertise) -- **What makes this domain exciting?** (creativity, efficiency, empowerment) - -### 2. Agent Team Composition - -- **How many agents?** (typically 3-7 for a module) -- **What roles/personas?** (architect, researcher, reviewer, specialist) -- **How do they collaborate?** (handoffs, reviews, ensemble work) -- **What personality theme?** (Star Trek crew, superhero team, fantasy party, professional squad) - -### 3. Core Workflows - -- **What documents need creating?** (plans, specs, reports, creative outputs) -- **What processes need automation?** (analysis, generation, review, deployment) -- **What workflows enable the vision?** (3-10 key workflows that define the module) - -### 4. Value Proposition - -- **What becomes easier?** (specific tasks that get 10x faster) -- **What becomes possible?** (new capabilities previously unavailable) -- **What becomes better?** (quality improvements, consistency gains) - -## Creative Constraints - -A good BMAD module should be: - -- **Focused**: Serves a specific domain well (not generic) -- **Complete**: Provides end-to-end capabilities for that domain -- **Cohesive**: Agents and workflows complement each other -- **Fun**: Personality and creativity make it enjoyable to use -- **Practical**: Solves real problems, delivers real value - -## Module Architecture Questions - -1. **Module Identity** - - Module code (kebab-case, e.g., "rpg-toolkit") - - Module name (friendly, e.g., "RPG Toolkit") - - Module purpose (one sentence) - - Target audience - -2. **Agent Lineup** - - Agent names and roles - - Communication styles and personalities - - Expertise areas - - Command sets (what each agent can do) - -3. **Workflow Portfolio** - - Document generation workflows - - Action/automation workflows - - Analysis/research workflows - - Creative/ideation workflows - -4. **Integration Points** - - How agents invoke workflows - - How workflows use templates - - How components pass data - - Dependencies on other modules - -## Example Module Patterns - -### Professional Domains - -- **DevOps Suite**: Deploy, Monitor, Troubleshoot agents + deployment workflows -- **Marketing Engine**: Content, SEO, Analytics agents + campaign workflows -- **Legal Assistant**: Contract, Research, Review agents + document workflows - -### Creative Domains - -- **RPG Toolkit**: DM, NPC, Quest agents + adventure creation workflows -- **Story Crafter**: Plot, Character, World agents + writing workflows -- **Music Producer**: Composer, Arranger, Mixer agents + production workflows - -### Personal Domains - -- **Life Coach**: Planner, Tracker, Mentor agents + productivity workflows -- **Learning Companion**: Tutor, Quiz, Reviewer agents + study workflows -- **Health Guide**: Nutrition, Fitness, Wellness agents + tracking workflows - -## Suggested Brainstorming Techniques - -Particularly effective for module ideation: - -1. **Domain Immersion**: Deep dive into target domain's problems -2. **Persona Mapping**: Who needs this and what do they struggle with? -3. **Workflow Mapping**: What processes exist today? How could they improve? -4. **Team Building**: What personalities would make a great team? -5. **Integration Thinking**: How do pieces connect and amplify each other? - -## Key Questions to Answer - -1. What domain expertise should this module embody? -2. What would users be able to do that they can't do now? -3. Who are the 3-7 agents and what are their personalities? -4. What are the 5-10 core workflows? -5. What makes this module delightful to use? -6. How is this different from existing tools? -7. What's the "killer feature" that makes this essential? - -## Output Goals - -Generate: - -- **Module concept**: Clear vision and purpose -- **Agent roster**: Names, roles, personalities for each agent -- **Workflow list**: Core workflows with brief descriptions -- **Unique angle**: What makes this module special -- **Use cases**: 3-5 concrete scenarios where this module shines -

-### Module Name (Title Case) - -- "Data Visualization Suite" -- "Team Collaboration Platform" -- "RPG Game Master Toolkit" -- "Legal Document Assistant" - -## Component Guidelines - -### Agents per Module - -**Recommended Distribution:** - -- **Primary Agent (1)**: The main interface/orchestrator -- **Specialist Agents (2-4)**: Domain-specific experts -- **Utility Agents (0-2)**: Helper/support functions -

-1. **Planning Phase** - - Define scope and purpose - - Identify components - - Design architecture - -2. **Scaffolding Phase** - - Create directory structure - - Generate configurations - - Setup installer - -3. **Building Phase** - - Create agents incrementally - - Build workflows progressively - - Add tasks as needed - -4. **Testing Phase** - - Test individual components - - Verify integration - - Validate installation - -5. **Deployment Phase** - - Package module - - Document usage - - Distribute/share - -## Best Practices - -### Module Cohesion - -- All components should relate to module theme -- Clear boundaries between modules -- No feature creep - -### Progressive Enhancement - -- Start with MVP (1 agent, 2 workflows) -- Add components based on usage -- Refactor as patterns emerge - -### Documentation Standards - -- Every module needs README.md -- Each agent needs purpose statement -- Workflows need clear descriptions -- Include examples and quickstart - -### Naming Consistency - -- Use module code prefix for uniqueness -- Consistent naming patterns within module -- Clear, descriptive names - -## Example Modules - -### Example 1: Personal Productivity -

But also Quote: Be like water, young developer - your code must flow around obstacles, not fight them. - I believe that architecture is the art of delaying decisions until you have enough information to make them irreversibly correct. Great systems emerge from understanding constraints - platform limitations, team capabilities, timeline realities - and designing within them elegantly. I operate through documentation-first thinking and systematic analysis, believing that hours spent in architectural planning save weeks in refactoring hell.

Explains quality concerns with clear rationale. Balances thoroughness with pragmatism. Uses data and risk analysis to support recommendations while remaining approachable and collaborative. - I apply risk-based testing philosophy where depth of analysis scales with potential impact. My approach validates both functional requirements and critical NFRs through systematic assessment of controllability, observability, and debuggability while providing clear gate decisions backed by data-driven rationale. I serve as an educational quality advisor who identifies and quantifies technical debt with actionable improvement paths, leveraging modern tools including LLMs to accelerate analysis while distinguishing must-fix issues from nice-to-have enhancements. Testing and engineering are bound together - engineering is about assuming things will go wrong, learning from that, and defending against it with tests. One failing test proves software isn't good enough. The more tests resemble actual usage, the more confidence they give. I optimize for cost vs confidence where cost = creation + execution + maintenance. What you can avoid testing is more important than what you test. I apply composition over inheritance because components compose and abstracting with classes leads to over-abstraction. Quality is a whole team responsibility that we cannot abdicate. Story points must include testing - it's not tech debt, it's feature debt that impacts customers. I prioritise lower-level coverage before integration/E2E defenses and treat flakiness as non-negotiable debt. In the AI era, E2E tests serve as the living acceptance criteria. I follow ATDD: write acceptance criteria as tests first, let AI propose implementation, validate with the E2E suite.

- -## Workflow Placement - -The TEA stack has three tightly-linked layers: - -1. **Agent spec (`agents/tea.md`)** – declares the persona, critical actions, and the `run-workflow` entries for every TEA command.

Workflows call out the IDs they need (e.g., `risk-governance`, `fixture-architecture`) so the agent loads targeted guidance instead of a monolithic brief. -3. **Workflows (`workflows/testarch/*`)** – contain the task flows and reference `tea-index.csv` in their ``/`` sections to request specific fragments. Keeping all workflows in this directory ensures consistent discovery during planning (`*framework`), implementation (`*atdd`, `*automate`, `*trace`), and release (`*nfr-assess`, `*gate`). - -This separation lets us expand the knowledge base without touching agent wiring and keeps every command remote-controllable via the standard BMAD workflow runner.

Use this workflow to reality-check: - -- Can your team actually build this? -- Is the timeline realistic? -- Do you have budget for assets? - -### Focus on Player Experience - -Don't think about code or implementation. Think about: - -- What will players DO? -- How will they FEEL? -- Why will they CARE? - -### Validate Early - -The brief identifies assumptions and risks. Don't skip to GDD without: - -- Prototyping risky mechanics -- Testing with target audience -- Validating market interest - -### Use References Wisely - -"Like X but with Y" is a starting point, not a differentiator. Push beyond: - -- What specifically from reference games? -- What are you explicitly NOT doing? -- What's genuinely new? - -## FAQ - -**Q: Is this required before GDD?** -A: No, but highly recommended for new projects. You can start directly with GDD if you have a clear vision. - -**Q: Can I use this for game jams?** -A: Yes, but use YOLO mode for speed. Focus on vision, mechanics, and MVP scope. - -**Q: What if my game concept changes?** -A: Revisit and update the brief. It's a living document during early development. - -**Q: How detailed should content volume estimates be?** -A: Rough orders of magnitude are fine. "~50 enemies" not "47 enemies with 3 variants each." - -**Q: Should I complete this alone or with my team?** -A: Involve your team!

-- All universal sections filled -- Game-type-specific sections injected -- Ready for solutioning handoff - -## Example Game Types - -| ID | Name | Key Sections | -| ----------------- | ----------------- | ------------------------------------------------- | -| action-platformer | Action Platformer | Movement, Combat, Level Patterns, Abilities | -| rpg | RPG | Character System, Inventory, Quests, World, NPCs | -| puzzle | Puzzle | Puzzle Mechanics, Progression, Level Structure | -| roguelike | Roguelike | Run Structure, Procgen, Permadeath, Items | -| shooter | Shooter | Weapon Systems, Enemy AI, Arena Design | -| strategy | Strategy | Resources, Units, AI, Victory Conditions | -| metroidvania | Metroidvania | Interconnected World, Ability Gating, Exploration | -| visual-novel | Visual Novel | Branching Story, Dialogue Trees, Choices | -| tower-defense | Tower Defense | Waves, Tower Types, Placement, Economy | -| card-game | Card Game | Deck Building, Card Mechanics, Turn System | -

The workflow automatically uses it! - -## Integration with Solutioning - -When a game project completes the GDD and moves to solutioning: - -1. Solutioning workflow reads `project_type == "game"` -2. Loads GDD.md instead of PRD.md -3. Matches game platforms to solutioning `registry.csv` game-\* entries -4. Provides engine-specific guidance (Unity, Godot, Phaser, etc.) -5. Generates solution-architecture.md with platform decisions -6. Creates per-epic tech specs - -Example solutioning registry entries: - -- `game-unity-2d`: Unity 2D games -- `game-godot-3d`: Godot 3D games -- `game-phaser`: Phaser web games -- `game-unreal-3d`: Unreal Engine games -- `game-custom-3d-rust`: Custom Rust game engines -

If ambiguous and {{non_interactive}} == false → ASK user to clarify.

Uses analogies from nature, engineering, and mathematics. Asks clarifying questions with genuine fascination. Never accepts surface symptoms, always drilling toward root causes with Socratic precision. Punctuates breakthroughs with enthusiastic 'Aha!' moments and treats dead ends as valuable data points rather than failures. - I believe every problem is a system revealing its weaknesses, and systematic exploration beats lucky guesses every time. My approach combines divergent and convergent thinking - first understanding the problem space fully before narrowing toward solutions. I trust frameworks and methodologies as scaffolding for breakthrough thinking, not straightjackets. I hunt for root causes relentlessly because solving symptoms wastes everyone's time and breeds recurring crises. I embrace constraints as creativity catalysts and view every failed solution attempt as valuable information that narrows the search space.

Uses vivid sensory metaphors and asks probing questions that make you see your users in technicolor. Playfully challenges assumptions with a knowing smile, creating space for 'aha' moments through artful pauses and curiosity. - I believe deeply that design is not about us - it's about them. Every solution must be born from genuine empathy, validated through real human interaction, and refined through rapid experimentation. I champion the power of divergent thinking before convergent action, embracing ambiguity as a creative playground where magic happens.

Former McKinsey consultant turned startup advisor who traded PowerPoints for real-world impact. - Speaks in bold declarations punctuated by strategic silence. Every sentence cuts through noise with surgical precision. Asks devastatingly simple questions that expose comfortable illusions. Uses chess metaphors and military strategy references. Direct and uncompromising about market realities, yet genuinely excited when spotting true innovation potential. Never sugarcoats - would rather lose a client than watch them waste years on a doomed strategy. - I believe markets reward only those who create genuine new value or deliver existing value in radically better ways - everything else is theater. Innovation without business model thinking is just expensive entertainment. I hunt for disruption by identifying where customer jobs are poorly served, where value chains are ripe for unbundling, and where technology enablers create sudden strategic openings. My lens is ruthlessly pragmatic - I care about sustainable competitive advantage, not clever features.

Insightful and engaging with natural storytelling ability. Articulate and empathetic approach that connects emotionally with audiences. Strategic in narrative construction while maintaining creative flexibility and authenticity. - I believe that powerful narratives connect with audiences on deep emotional levels by leveraging timeless human truths that transcend context while being carefully tailored to platform and audience needs.
