feat: enhance QA agent as senior developer with code review capabilities and major brownfield improvements
This release introduces significant enhancements across multiple areas: QA Agent Transformation: - Transform QA agent into senior developer role with active code refactoring abilities - Add review-story task enabling QA to review, refactor, and improve code directly - Integrate QA review step into standard development workflow (SM → Dev → QA) - QA can fix small issues directly and leave checklist for remaining items - Updated dev agent to maintain File List for QA review focus Knowledge Base Improvements: - Add extensive brownfield development documentation and best practices - Clarify Web UI vs IDE usage with cost optimization strategies - Document PRD-first approach for large codebases/monorepos - Add comprehensive expansion packs explanation - Update IDE workflow to include QA review step - Clarify agent usage (bmad-master vs specialized agents) Brownfield Enhancements: - Create comprehensive Working in the Brownfield guide - Add document-project task to analyst agent capabilities - Implement PRD-first workflow option for focused documentation - Transform document-project to create practical brownfield architecture docs - Document technical debt, workarounds, and real-world constraints - Reference actual files instead of duplicating content - Add impact analysis when PRD is provided Documentation Task Improvements: - Simplify to always create ONE unified architecture document - Add deep codebase analysis phase with targeted questions - Focus on documenting reality including technical debt - Include Quick Reference section with key file paths - Add practical sections: useful commands, debugging tips, known issues Workflow Updates: - Update all 6 workflow files with detailed IDE transition instructions - Add clear SM → Dev → QA → Dev cycle explanation - Emphasize Gemini Web for brownfield analysis (1M+ context advantage) - Support both PRD-first and document-first approaches This release significantly improves the brownfield development experience and introduces a powerful shift-left QA approach with senior developer mentoring.

Planning phase complete! Now transition to IDE Development:
|
||||
|
||||
1. ENSURE DOCUMENTS ARE IN PROJECT:
|
||||
- Copy final prd.md to project's docs/prd.md
|
||||
- Copy final architecture.md to project's docs/architecture.md
|
||||
- All documents must be in the project before proceeding
|
||||
|
||||
2. SHARD DOCUMENTS (in IDE):
|
||||
- Option A: Use PO agent to shard: @po then ask to shard docs/prd.md
|
||||
- Option B: Manual: Drag shard-doc task + docs/prd.md into chat
|
||||
- This creates docs/prd/ and docs/architecture/ folders with sharded content
|
||||
|
||||
3. START DEVELOPMENT CYCLE:
|
||||
a. SM Agent (New Chat): @sm → *create
|
||||
- Creates next story from sharded docs
|
||||
- Review and approve story (Draft → Approved)
|
||||
|
||||
b. Dev Agent (New Chat): @dev
|
||||
- Implements approved story
|
||||
- Updates File List with all changes
|
||||
- Marks story as "Review" when complete
|
||||
|
||||
c. QA Agent (New Chat): @qa → review-story
|
||||
- Senior dev review with refactoring ability
|
||||
- Fixes small issues directly
|
||||
- Leaves checklist for remaining items
|
||||
- Updates story status (Review → Done or stays Review)
|
||||
|
||||
d. If QA left unchecked items:
|
||||
- Dev Agent (New Chat): Address remaining items
|
||||
- Return to QA for final approval
|
||||
|
||||
4. REPEAT: Continue cycle for all epic stories
