* fix: use baseUrl in meta tag paths for correct deployment URLs

* feat(docs): complete Phase 2 - split files and fix broken links

- Created TEA/testing explanation files
- Moved remaining legacy module files to proper Diataxis locations

Link fixes:

* fix(build): use file glob instead of sidebar parsing for llms-full.txt

Replace brittle sidebar.js regex parsing with recursive file glob.
The old approach captured non-file strings like 'autogenerated' and
category labels, resulting in only 5 files being processed.

Now correctly processes all 86+ markdown files (~95k tokens).

* fix(seo): use absolute URLs in AI meta tags for agent discoverability

AI web-browsing agents couldn't follow relative paths in meta tags due to
URL security restrictions. Changed llms-full.txt and llms.txt meta tag
URLs from relative (baseUrl) to absolute (urlParts.origin + baseUrl).

* refactor(docs): recategorize misplaced files per Diataxis analysis

Phase 2.5 categorization fixes based on post-migration analysis:

Moved to correct Diataxis categories:
- tutorials/installation.md → deleted (duplicate of how-to/install-bmad.md)
- tutorials/brownfield-onboarding.md → how-to/brownfield/index.md
- reference/faq/* (8 files) → explanation/faq/
- reference/agents/barry-quick-flow.md → explanation/agents/
- reference/agents/bmgd-agents.md → explanation/game-dev/agents.md

Created:
- explanation/agents/index.md

Fixed all broken internal links (14 total)

* feat(docs): add Getting Started tutorial and simplify build script

- Add comprehensive Getting Started tutorial with installation as Step 1
- Simplify build-docs.js to read directly from docs/ (no consolidation)

* fix(css): use fixed width layout to prevent content shifting

Apply React Native docs approach: set both width and max-width at
largest breakpoint (1400px) so content area maintains consistent
size regardless of content length. Switches to fluid 100% below
1416px breakpoint.

* refactor(docs): migrate from Docusaurus to Astro+Starlight

Replace Docusaurus with Astro and the Starlight documentation theme
for improved performance, better customization, and modern tooling.

Build pipeline changes:
- New build-docs.js orchestrates link checking, artifact generation,
  and Astro build in sequence
- Add check-doc-links.js for validating internal links and anchors
- Generate llms.txt and llms-full.txt for LLM-friendly documentation
- Create downloadable source bundles (bmad-sources.zip, bmad-prompts.zip)
- Suppress MODULE_TYPELESS_PACKAGE_JSON warning in Astro build
- Output directly to build/site for cleaner deployment

Website architecture:
- Add rehype-markdown-links.js plugin to transform .md links to routes
- Add site-url.js helper for GitHub Pages URL resolution with strict
  validation (throws on invalid GITHUB_REPOSITORY format)
- Custom Astro components: Banner, Header, MobileMenuFooter
- Symlink docs/ into website/src/content/docs for Starlight

Documentation cleanup:
- Remove Docusaurus _category_.json files (Starlight uses frontmatter)
- Convert all docs to use YAML frontmatter with title field
- Move downloads.md from website/src/pages to docs/
- Consolidate style guide and workflow diagram docs
- Add 404.md and tutorials/index.md

title: "How to Create Architecture"
description: How to create system architecture using the BMad Method
---
Use the `architecture` workflow to make technical decisions explicit and prevent agent conflicts during implementation.
---
## When to Use This
- Multi-epic projects (BMad Method, Enterprise)
- Cross-cutting technical concerns
- Multiple agents implementing different parts
- Integration complexity exists
- Technology choices need alignment
---
## When to Skip This
- Quick Flow (simple changes)
- BMad Method Simple with straightforward tech stack
- Single epic with clear technical approach
---
## Prerequisites
- BMad Method installed
- Architect agent available
- PRD completed
---
## Steps
### 1. Load the Architect Agent
Start a fresh chat and load the Architect agent.
### 2. Run the Architecture Workflow
```
*create-architecture
```
### 3. Engage in Discovery
This is NOT a template filler. The architecture workflow:
1. **Discovers** technical needs through conversation
2. **Proposes** architectural options with trade-offs
3. **Documents** decisions that prevent agent conflicts
4. **Focuses** on decision points, not exhaustive documentation
### 4. Document Key Decisions
Work with the agent to create Architecture Decision Records (ADRs) for significant choices.
### 5. Review the Architecture
The agent produces a decision-focused architecture document.
---
## What You Get
An `architecture.md` document containing:
1. **Architecture Overview** - System context, principles, style
2. **System Architecture** - High-level diagram, component interactions
3. **Data Architecture** - Database design, state management, caching
4. **API Architecture** - API style (REST/GraphQL/gRPC), auth, versioning
5. **Frontend Architecture** - Framework, state management, components
6. **Integration Architecture** - Third-party integrations, messaging
7. **Security Architecture** - Auth/authorization, data protection
8. **Deployment Architecture** - CI/CD, environments, monitoring
9. **ADRs** - Key decisions with context, options, rationale
10. **FR/NFR-Specific Guidance** - Technical approach per requirement
11. **Standards and Conventions** - Directory structure, naming, testing
---
## ADR Format
```markdown
## ADR-001: Use GraphQL for All APIs
**Status:** Accepted | **Date:** 2025-11-02
**Context:** PRD requires flexible querying across multiple epics
**Decision:** Use GraphQL for all client-server communication
**Options Considered:**
1. REST - Familiar but requires multiple endpoints
2. GraphQL - Flexible querying, learning curve
3. gRPC - High performance, poor browser support
**Rationale:**
- PRD requires flexible data fetching (Epic 1, 3)
- Mobile app needs bandwidth optimization (Epic 2)
- Team has GraphQL experience
**Consequences:**
- Positive: Flexible querying, reduced versioning
- Negative: Caching complexity, N+1 query risk
- Mitigation: Use DataLoader for batching
```
---
## Example
E-commerce platform produces:
- Monolith + PostgreSQL + Redis + Next.js + GraphQL
- ADRs explaining each choice
- FR/NFR-specific implementation guidance
---
## Tips
- Focus on decisions that prevent agent conflicts
- Use ADRs for every significant technology choice
- Keep it practical - don't over-architect
- Architecture is living - update as you learn
---
## Next Steps
After architecture:
1. **Create Epics and Stories** - Work breakdown informed by architecture
2. **Implementation Readiness** - Gate check before Phase 4
