-# BMAD Knowledge Base
-
-## Overview
-
-BMAD-METHOD (Breakthrough Method of Agile AI-driven Development) is a framework that combines AI agents with Agile development methodologies. The v4 system introduces a modular architecture with improved dependency management, bundle optimization, and support for both web and IDE environments.
-
-### Key Features
-
-- **Modular Agent System**: Specialized AI agents for each Agile role
-- **Build System**: Automated dependency resolution and optimization
-- **Dual Environment Support**: Optimized for both web UIs and IDEs
-- **Reusable Resources**: Portable templates, tasks, and checklists
-- **Slash Command Integration**: Quick agent switching and control
-
-## Core Philosophy
-
-### Vibe CEO'ing
-
-You are the "Vibe CEO" - thinking like a CEO with unlimited resources and a singular vision. Your AI agents are your high-powered team, and your role is to:
-
-- **Direct**: Provide clear instructions and objectives
-- **Refine**: Iterate on outputs to achieve quality
-- **Oversee**: Maintain strategic alignment across all agents
-
-### Core Principles
-
-1. **MAXIMIZE_AI_LEVERAGE**: Push the AI to deliver more. Challenge outputs and iterate.
-2. **QUALITY_CONTROL**: You are the ultimate arbiter of quality. Review all outputs.
-3. **STRATEGIC_OVERSIGHT**: Maintain the high-level vision and ensure alignment.
-4. **ITERATIVE_REFINEMENT**: Expect to revisit steps. This is not a linear process.
-5. **CLEAR_INSTRUCTIONS**: Precise requests lead to better outputs.

-# Create Expansion Pack Task
-
-This task helps you create a comprehensive BMAD expansion pack that can include new agents, tasks, templates, and checklists for a specific domain.
-
-## Understanding Expansion Packs
-
-Expansion packs extend BMAD with domain-specific capabilities. They are self-contained packages that can be installed into any BMAD project. Every expansion pack MUST include a custom BMAD orchestrator agent that manages the domain-specific workflow.
-
-## CRITICAL REQUIREMENTS
-
-1. **Create Planning Document First**: Before any implementation, create a concise task list for user approval
-2. **Verify All References**: Any task, template, or data file referenced in an agent MUST exist in the pack
-3. **Include Orchestrator**: Every pack needs a custom BMAD-style orchestrator agent
-4. **User Data Requirements**: Clearly specify any files users must provide in their data folder
-
-## Process Overview
-
-### Phase 1: Discovery and Planning
-
-#### 1.1 Define the Domain
-
-Ask the user:
-
-- **Pack Name**: Short identifier (e.g., `healthcare`, `fintech`, `gamedev`)
-- **Display Name**: Full name (e.g., "Healthcare Compliance Pack")
-- **Description**: What domain or industry does this serve?
-- **Key Problems**: What specific challenges will this pack solve?
-- **Target Users**: Who will benefit from this expansion?
-
-#### 1.2 Gather Examples
-
-Request from the user:
-
-- **Sample Documents**: Any existing documents in this domain
-- **Workflow Examples**: How work currently flows in this domain
-- **Compliance Needs**: Any regulatory or standards requirements
-- **Output Examples**: What final deliverables look like
-- **Data Requirements**: What reference data files users will need to provide
-
-#### 1.3 Create Planning Document
-
-IMPORTANT: STOP HERE AND CREATE PLAN FIRST
-
-Create `expansion-packs/{pack-name}/plan.md` with:
-
-```markdown
-# {Pack Name} Expansion Pack Plan
-
-## Overview
-
-- Pack Name: {name}
-- Description: {description}
-- Target Domain: {domain}
-
-## Components to Create
-
-### Agents
-
-- [ ] {pack-name}-orchestrator (REQUIRED: Custom BMAD orchestrator)
-- [ ] {agent-1-name}
-- [ ] {agent-2-name}
-
-### Tasks
-
-- [ ] {task-1} (referenced by: {agent})
-- [ ] {task-2} (referenced by: {agent})
-
-### Templates
-
-- [ ] {template-1} (used by: {agent/task})
-- [ ] {template-2} (used by: {agent/task})
-
-### Checklists
-
-- [ ] {checklist-1}
-- [ ] {checklist-2}
-
-### Data Files Required from User
-
-- [ ] {filename}.{ext} - {description of content needed}
-- [ ] {filename2}.{ext} - {description of content needed}
-
-## Approval
-
-User approval received: [ ] Yes
-```
-
-Important: Wait for user approval before proceeding to Phase 2
-
-### Phase 2: Component Design
-
-#### 2.1 Create Orchestrator Agent
-
-**FIRST PRIORITY**: Design the custom BMAD orchestrator:
-
-- **Name**: `{pack-name}-orchestrator`
-- **Purpose**: Master coordinator for domain-specific workflow
-- **Key Commands**: Domain-specific orchestration commands
-- **Integration**: How it leverages other pack agents
-- **Workflow**: The complete process it manages
-
-#### 2.2 Identify Specialist Agents
-
-For each additional agent:
-
-- **Role**: What specialist is needed?
-- **Expertise**: Domain-specific knowledge required
-- **Interactions**: How they work with orchestrator and BMAD agents
-- **Unique Value**: What can't existing agents handle?
-- **Required Tasks**: List ALL tasks this agent references
-- **Required Templates**: List ALL templates this agent uses
-- **Required Data**: List ALL data files this agent needs
-
-#### 2.3 Design Specialized Tasks
-
-For each task:
-
-- **Purpose**: What specific action does it enable?
-- **Inputs**: What information is needed?
-- **Process**: Step-by-step instructions
-- **Outputs**: What gets produced?
-- **Agent Usage**: Which agents will use this task?
-
-#### 2.4 Create Document Templates
-
-For each template:
-
-- **Document Type**: What kind of document?
-- **Structure**: Sections and organization
-- **Placeholders**: Variable content areas
-- **Instructions**: How to complete each section
-- **Standards**: Any format requirements
-
-#### 2.5 Define Checklists
-
-For each checklist:
-
-- **Purpose**: What quality aspect does it verify?
-- **Scope**: When should it be used?
-- **Items**: Specific things to check
-- **Criteria**: Pass/fail conditions
-
-### Phase 3: Implementation
-
-IMPORTANT: Only proceed after plan.md is approved
-
-#### 3.1 Create Directory Structure
-
-```text
-expansion-packs/
-└── {pack-name}/
-    ├── plan.md (ALREADY CREATED)
-    ├── manifest.yml

-  {Pack Name} expansion pack ready!
-
-  Required data files:
-  - {data-file}.{ext}: {description}
-
-  To use: npm run agent {pack-name}-orchestrator
-```
-
-### Phase 4: Content Creation
-
-IMPORTANT: Work through plan.md checklist systematically!
-
-#### 4.1 Create Orchestrator First
-
-1. Create `personas/{pack-name}-orchestrator.md` with BMAD-style commands
-2. Create `agents/{pack-name}-orchestrator.yml` configuration
-3. Create `ide-agents/{pack-name}-orchestrator.ide.md`
-4. Verify ALL referenced tasks exist
-5. Verify ALL referenced templates exist
-6. Document data file requirements
-
-#### 4.2 Agent Creation Order
-
-For each additional agent:
-
-1. Create persona file with domain expertise
-2. Create agent configuration YAML
-3. Create IDE-optimized version
-4. **STOP** - Verify all referenced tasks/templates exist
-5. Create any missing tasks/templates immediately
-6. Mark agent as complete in plan.md
-
-#### 4.3 Task Creation Guidelines
-
-Each task should:
-
-1. Have a clear, single purpose
-2. Include step-by-step instructions
-3. Provide examples when helpful
-4. Reference domain standards
-5. Be reusable across agents
-
-#### 4.4 Template Best Practices
-
-Templates should:

-## Interactive Questions Flow
-
-### Initial Discovery
-
-1. "What domain or industry will this expansion pack serve?"
-2. "What are the main challenges or workflows in this domain?"
-3. "Do you have any example documents or outputs? (Please share)"
-4. "What specialized roles/experts exist in this domain?"
-5. "What reference data will users need to provide?"
-
-### Planning Phase
-
-1. "Here's the proposed plan. Please review and approve before we continue."
-
-### Orchestrator Design
-
-1. "What key commands should the {pack-name} orchestrator support?"
-2. "What's the typical workflow from start to finish?"
-3. "How should it integrate with core BMAD agents?"
-
-### Agent Planning
-
-1. "For agent '{name}', what is their specific expertise?"
-2. "What tasks will this agent reference? (I'll create them)"
-3. "What templates will this agent use? (I'll create them)"
-4. "What data files will this agent need? (You'll provide these)"
-
-### Task Design
-
-1. "Describe the '{task}' process step-by-step"
-2. "What information is needed to complete this task?"
-3. "What should the output look like?"
-
-### Template Creation
-
-1. "What sections should the '{template}' document have?"
-2. "Are there any required formats or standards?"
-3. "Can you provide an example of a completed document?"
-
-### Data Requirements
-
-1. "For {data-file}, what information should it contain?"
-2. "What format should this data be in?"
-3. "Can you provide a sample?"
-
-## Important Considerations
-
-- **Plan First**: ALWAYS create and get approval for plan.md before implementing
-- **Orchestrator Required**: Every pack MUST have a custom BMAD orchestrator
-- **Verify References**: ALL referenced tasks/templates MUST exist
-- **Document Data Needs**: Clearly specify what users must provide
-- **Domain Expertise**: Ensure accuracy in specialized fields
-- **Compliance**: Include necessary regulatory requirements
-
-## Tips for Success
-
-1. **Plan Thoroughly**: The plan.md prevents missing components
-2. **Build Orchestrator First**: It defines the overall workflow
-3. **Verify As You Go**: Check off items in plan.md
-4. **Test References**: Ensure no broken dependencies
-5. **Document Data**: Users need clear data file instructions
-
-## Common Mistakes to Avoid
-
-1. **Missing Orchestrator**: Every pack needs its own BMAD-style orchestrator
-2. **Orphaned References**: Agent references task that doesn't exist
-3. **Unclear Data Needs**: Not specifying required user data files
-4. **Skipping Plan**: Going straight to implementation
-5. **Generic Orchestrator**: Not making it domain-specific
-
-## Completion Checklist
-
-- [ ] plan.md created and approved
-- [ ] All plan.md items checked off
-- [ ] Orchestrator agent created
-- [ ] All agent references verified
-- [ ] Data requirements documented or added
-- [ ] README includes all setup instructions
-- [ ] manifest.yml reflects actual files

-# Create Team Task
-
-This task guides you through creating a new BMAD agent team that conforms to the agent-team schema and effectively combines agents for specific project types.
-
-**Note for User-Created Teams**: If creating a custom team for your own use (not part of the core BMAD system), prefix the team name with a period (e.g., `.team-frontend`) to ensure it's gitignored and won't conflict with repository updates.
-
-## Prerequisites
-
-1. Load and understand the team schema: `/bmad-core/schemas/agent-team-schema.yml`
-2. Review existing teams in `/bmad-core/agent-teams/` for patterns and naming conventions
-3. List available agents from `/agents/` to understand team composition options
-4. Review workflows in `/bmad-core/workflows/` to align team capabilities
-
-## Process
-
-### 1. Define Team Purpose and Scope
-
-Before selecting agents, clarify the team's mission:
-
-- **Team Purpose**: What specific problems will this team solve?
-- **Project Types**: Greenfield, brownfield, or both?
-- **Technical Scope**: UI-focused, backend-only, or full-stack?
-- **Team Size Consideration**: Smaller teams (3-5 agents) for focused work, larger teams (6-8) for comprehensive coverage
-
-### 2. Create Team Metadata
-
-Based on the schema requirements:
-
-- **Team Name**: Must follow pattern `^Team .+$` (e.g., "Team Frontend", "Team Analytics")
-  - For user teams: prefix with period (e.g., "Team .MyCustom")
-- **Description**: 20-500 characters explaining team's purpose, capabilities, and use cases
-- **File Name**: `/bmad-core/agent-teams/team-{identifier}.yml`
-  - For user teams: `/bmad-core/agent-teams/.team-{identifier}.yml`
-
-### 3. Select Agents Based on Purpose
-
-#### Discover Available Agents
-
-1. List all agents from `/agents/` directory
-2. Review each agent's role and capabilities
-3. Consider agent synergies and coverage
-
-#### Agent Selection Guidelines
-
-Based on team purpose, recommend agents:
-
-**For Planning & Strategy Teams:**
-
-- `bmad` (required orchestrator)
-- `analyst` - Requirements gathering and research
-- `pm` - Product strategy and documentation
-- `po` - Validation and approval
-- `architect` - Technical planning (if technical planning needed)
-
-**For Design & UX Teams:**
-
-- `bmad` (required orchestrator)
-- `ux-expert` - User experience design
-- `architect` - Frontend architecture
-- `pm` - Product requirements alignment
-- `po` - Design validation
-
-**For Development Teams:**
-
-- `bmad-orchestrator` (required)
-- `sm` - Sprint coordination
-- `dev` - Implementation
-- `qa` - Quality assurance
-- `architect` - Technical guidance
-
-**For Full-Stack Teams:**
-
-- `bmad-orchestrator` (required)
-- `analyst` - Initial planning
-- `pm` - Product management
-- `ux-expert` - UI/UX design (if UI work included)
-- `architect` - System architecture
-- `po` - Validation
-- Additional agents as needed
-
-#### Special Cases
-
-- **Using Wildcard**: If team needs all agents, use `["bmad", "*"]`
-- **Validation**: Schema requires `bmad` in all teams
-
-### 4. Select Workflows
-
-Based on the schema's workflow enum values and team composition:
-
-1. **Analyze team capabilities** against available workflows:
-
-   - `brownfield-fullstack` - Requires full team with UX
-   - `brownfield-service` - Backend-focused team
-   - `brownfield-ui` - UI/UX-focused team
-   - `greenfield-fullstack` - Full team for new projects
-   - `greenfield-service` - Backend team for new services
-   - `greenfield-ui` - Frontend team for new UIs
-
-2. **Match workflows to agents**:
-
-   - UI workflows require `ux-expert`
-   - Service workflows benefit from `architect` and `dev`
-   - All workflows benefit from planning agents (`analyst`, `pm`)
-
-3. **Apply schema validation rules**:
-   - Teams without `ux-expert` shouldn't have UI workflows
-   - Teams named "Team No UI" can't have UI workflows
-
-### 5. Create Team Configuration
-
-Generate the configuration following the schema:
-
-```yaml
-bundle:
-  name: "{Team Name}" # Must match pattern "^Team .+$"
-  description: >-
-    {20-500 character description explaining purpose,
-    capabilities, and ideal use cases}
-
-agents:
-  - bmad # Required orchestrator
-  - { agent-id-1 }
-  - { agent-id-2 }
-  # ... additional agents
-
-workflows:
-  - { workflow-1 } # From enum list
-  - { workflow-2 }
-  # ... additional workflows
-```
-
-### 6. Validate Team Composition
-
-Before finalizing, verify:
-
-1. **Role Coverage**: Does the team have all necessary skills for its workflows?
-2. **Size Optimization**:
-   - Minimum: 2 agents (bmad + 1)
-   - Recommended: 3-7 agents
-   - Maximum with wildcard: bmad + "\*"
-3. **Workflow Alignment**: Can the selected agents execute all workflows?
-4. **Schema Compliance**: Configuration matches all schema requirements
-
-### 7. Integration Recommendations
-
-Document how this team integrates with existing system:
-
-1. **Complementary Teams**: Which existing teams complement this one?
-2. **Handoff Points**: Where does this team hand off to others?
-3. **Use Case Scenarios**: Specific project types ideal for this team
-
-### 8. Validation and Testing
-
-1. **Schema Validation**: Ensure configuration matches agent-team-schema.yml
-2. **Build Validation**: Run `npm run validate`
-3. **Build Team**: Run `npm run build:team -t {team-name}`
-4. **Size Check**: Verify output is appropriate for target platform
-5. **Test Scenarios**: Run sample workflows with the team
-
-## Example Team Creation
-
-### Example 1: API Development Team
-
-```yaml
-bundle:
-  name: "Team API"
-  description: >-
-    Specialized team for API and backend service development. Focuses on

-## Team Creation Checklist
-
-- [ ] Team purpose clearly defined
-- [ ] Name follows schema pattern "Team {Name}"
-- [ ] Description is 20-500 characters
-- [ ] Includes bmad orchestrator
-- [ ] Agents align with team purpose
-- [ ] Workflows match team capabilities
-- [ ] No conflicting validations (e.g., no-UI team with UI workflows)
-- [ ] Configuration validates against schema
-- [ ] Build completes successfully
-- [ ] Output size appropriate for platform
-
-## Best Practices
-
-1. **Start Focused**: Create teams with specific purposes rather than general-purpose teams
-2. **Consider Workflow**: Order agents by typical workflow sequence
-3. **Avoid Redundancy**: Don't duplicate roles unless needed
-4. **Document Rationale**: Explain why each agent is included
-5. **Test Integration**: Verify team works well with selected workflows
-6. **Iterate**: Refine team composition based on usage
-
-This schema-driven approach ensures teams are well-structured, purposeful, and integrate seamlessly with the BMAD ecosystem.

-# Document Migration Task
-
-## Purpose
-
-Migrate BMAD-METHOD documents to match V4 template structure exactly, preserving all content while enforcing strict template compliance.
-
-## Task Requirements
-
-1. **Input**: User MUST specify the document to migrate (e.g., `docs/prd.md`)
-2. **Template**: User MUST specify the V4 template to use (e.g., `.bmad-core/templates/prd-tmpl.md`)
-3. **Validation**: Verify document and template are compatible types
-4. **Output**: Creates migrated document with original name, backs up original with `.bak` extension
-
-[[LLM: VALIDATION REQUIREMENTS:
-
-- Both input document and template paths MUST be provided by the user
-- Do NOT assume or select templates automatically
-- Validate that document type matches template type (e.g., PRD → PRD template)
-- Reject incompatible migrations (e.g., PRD → architecture template)
-
-]]
-
-## Migration Rules
-
-### Strict Template Compliance
-
-[[LLM: CRITICAL RULES:
-
-1. The ONLY Level 2 headings (##) allowed are EXACTLY those in the V4 template
-2. No additions, no removals, no modifications to Level 2 headings
-3. All user content must be preserved and placed under appropriate template sections
-4. Remove any existing table of contents
-5. Never delete user content - find the most appropriate section
-6. DO NOT add any LLM prompts, placeholders, or "TBD" content
-7. Leave empty sections empty - no instructions or guidance text
-
-]]
-
-### Content Migration Process
-
-1. **Read Template Structure**
-
-   - Extract all Level 2 headings from the V4 template
-   - These are the ONLY Level 2 headings allowed in the final document
-
-2. **Analyze Original Document**
-
-   - Identify all content blocks
-   - Note original section organization
-   - Flag any custom sections
-
-3. **Create Backup First**
-
-   - Rename original file: `mv filename.md filename.md.bak`
-   - This preserves the original completely
-
-4. **Create New File**
-
-   - Create new `filename.md` from scratch
-   - Start with template structure (all Level 2 headings)
-   - For each content block from original:
-     - Find the most appropriate V4 template section
-     - If original had Level 2 heading not in template, demote to Level 3
-     - Preserve all text, lists, code blocks, diagrams, tables
-     - Remove only table of contents sections
-   - **IMPORTANT**: Do NOT add any LLM prompts, placeholders, or instructions
-   - If a template section has no matching content, leave it empty
-
-5. **Validate Content Preservation**
-   - For each major content block from original (excluding headings):
-     - Use grep or search to verify it exists in new file
-     - Report any content that couldn't be verified
-   - This ensures no accidental content loss
-
-## Example Migration
-
-```markdown
-Original (prd.md):
-
-## Executive Summary
-
-[content...]
-
-## Custom Feature Section
-
-[content...]
-
-## Table of Contents
-
-[toc...]
-
-Template (prd-tmpl.md):
-
-## Goals and Background Context
-
-## Functional Requirements
-
-## Success Metrics and KPIs
-
-Result (prd.md):
-
-## Goals and Background Context
-
-[executive summary content moved here]
-
-### Custom Feature Section
-
-[content preserved but demoted to Level 3]
-
-## Functional Requirements
-
-## Success Metrics and KPIs
-```
-
-## Execution Instructions
-
-[[LLM: When executing this task:
-
-1. Ask user for BOTH: input file path AND template path (do not assume)
-2. Validate compatibility:
-   - Check document title/type (PRD, Architecture, etc.)
-   - Ensure template matches document type
-   - REJECT if types don't match (e.g., "Cannot migrate PRD to architecture template")
-3. Read both files completely
-4. Rename original to .bak: `mv original.md original.md.bak`
-5. Extract Level 2 headings from template - these are MANDATORY
-6. Create NEW file with original name
-7. Build new content:
-   - Start with all template Level 2 sections
-   - Map original content to appropriate sections
-   - Demote any non-template Level 2 headings to Level 3
-   - Leave empty sections empty (no placeholders or instructions)
-8. Validate content preservation:
-   - Extract key content snippets from .bak file
-   - Use grep to verify each exists in new file
-   - Report any missing content
-9. Report migration summary:
-   - Sections moved/demoted
-   - Content validation results
-   - Any manual review needed
-
-]]
-
-### Document Type Detection
-
-[[LLM: Detect document type by examining:
-
-- File name (prd.md, architecture.md, etc.)
-- Main title (# Product Requirements Document, # Architecture, etc.)
-- Content patterns (user stories → PRD, technology stack → Architecture)
-
-Template compatibility:
-
-- prd-tmpl.md → Only for PRD documents
-- architecture-tmpl.md → Only for backend/single architecture
-- full-stack-architecture-tmpl.md → Only for architecture documents (can merge multiple)
-
-]]
-
-## Common Migrations
-
-Valid migrations:
-
-- `prd.md` → `.bmad-core/templates/prd-tmpl.md`
-- `architecture.md` → `.bmad-core/templates/architecture-tmpl.md`
-- `architecture.md` + `front-end-architecture.md` → `.bmad-core/templates/full-stack-architecture-tmpl.md`
-
-Invalid migrations (MUST REJECT):
-
-- `prd.md` → `.bmad-core/templates/architecture-tmpl.md`
-- `architecture.md` → `.bmad-core/templates/prd-tmpl.md`
-- `ux-ui-spec.md` → `.bmad-core/templates/prd-tmpl.md`
-
-## Validation
-
-After migration verify:
-
-- [ ] All Level 2 headings match template exactly
-- [ ] All original content is preserved (use grep validation)
-- [ ] No table of contents remains
-- [ ] Backup file exists with .bak extension
-- [ ] Custom sections demoted to Level 3 or lower
-
-### Content Validation Example
-
-[[LLM: Example validation approach:
-
-1. Extract significant text blocks from .bak file (>20 words)
-2. For each block, grep in new file:
-   ```bash
-   grep -F "first 10-15 words of content block" newfile.md
-   ```
-3. Track validation results:
-   - ✓ Found: content successfully migrated
-   - ✗ Missing: needs investigation
-4. Report any content that couldn't be found

-# Create AI Frontend Prompt Task
-
-## Purpose
-
-To generate a masterful, comprehensive, and optimized prompt that can be used with AI-driven frontend development tools (e.g., Lovable, Vercel v0, or similar) to scaffold or generate significant portions of the frontend application.
-
-## Inputs
-
-- Completed UI/UX Specification (`front-end-spec-tmpl`)
-- Completed Frontend Architecture Document (`front-end-architecture`)
-- Main System Architecture Document (`architecture` - for API contracts and tech stack)
-- Primary Design Files (Figma, Sketch, etc. - for visual context if the tool can accept it or if descriptions are needed)
-
-## Key Activities & Instructions
-
-1. **Confirm Target AI Generation Platform:**
-
-   - Ask the user to specify which AI frontend generation tool/platform they intend to use (e.g., "Lovable.ai", "Vercel v0", "GPT-4 with direct code generation instructions", etc.).
-   - Explain that prompt optimization might differ slightly based on the platform's capabilities and preferred input format.
-
-2. **Synthesize Inputs into a Structured Prompt:**
-
-   - **Overall Project Context:**
-     - Briefly state the project's purpose (from brief/PRD).
-     - Specify the chosen frontend framework, core libraries, and UI component library (from `front-end-architecture` and main `architecture`).
-     - Mention the styling approach (e.g., Tailwind CSS, CSS Modules).
-   - **Design System & Visuals:**
-     - Reference the primary design files (e.g., Figma link).
-     - If the tool doesn't directly ingest design files, describe the overall visual style, color palette, typography, and key branding elements (from `front-end-spec-tmpl`).
-     - List any global UI components or design tokens that should be defined or adhered to.
-   - **Application Structure & Routing:**
-     - Describe the main pages/views and their routes (from `front-end-architecture` - Routing Strategy).
-     - Outline the navigation structure (from `front-end-spec-tmpl`).
-   - **Key User Flows & Page-Level Interactions:**
-     - For a few critical user flows (from `front-end-spec-tmpl`):
-       - Describe the sequence of user actions and expected UI changes on each relevant page.
-       - Specify API calls to be made (referencing API endpoints from the main `architecture`) and how data should be displayed or used.
-   - **Component Generation Instructions (Iterative or Key Components):**
-     - Based on the chosen AI tool's capabilities, decide on a strategy:
-       - **Option 1 (Scaffolding):** Prompt for the generation of main page structures, layouts, and placeholders for components.
-       - **Option 2 (Key Component Generation):** Select a few critical or complex components from the `front-end-architecture` (Component Breakdown) and provide detailed specifications for them (props, state, basic behavior, key UI elements).
-       - **Option 3 (Holistic, if tool supports):** Attempt to describe the entire application structure and key components more broadly.
-     - <important_note>Advise the user that generating an entire complex application perfectly in one go is rare. Iterative prompting or focusing on sections/key components is often more effective.</important_note>
-   - **State Management (High-Level Pointers):**
-     - Mention the chosen state management solution (e.g., "Use Redux Toolkit").
-     - For key pieces of data, indicate if they should be managed in global state.
-   - **API Integration Points:**
-     - For pages/components that fetch or submit data, clearly state the relevant API endpoints (from `architecture`) and the expected data shapes (can reference schemas in `data-models` or `api-reference` sections of the architecture doc).
-   - **Critical "Don'ts" or Constraints:**
-     - e.g., "Do not use deprecated libraries." "Ensure all forms have basic client-side validation."
-   - **Platform-Specific Optimizations:**
-     - If the chosen AI tool has known best practices for prompting (e.g., specific keywords, structure, level of detail), incorporate them. (This might require the agent to have some general knowledge or to ask the user if they know any such specific prompt modifiers for their chosen tool).
-
-3. **Present and Refine the Master Prompt:**
-   - Output the generated prompt in a clear, copy-pasteable format (e.g., a large code block).
-   - Explain the structure of the prompt and why certain information was included.
-   - Work with the user to refine the prompt based on their knowledge of the target AI tool and any specific nuances they want to emphasize.
-   - <important_note>Remind the user that the generated code from the AI tool will likely require review, testing, and further refinement by developers.</important_note>

-# Agent Switcher Instructions
-
-## Overview
-
-This document provides instructions for switching between different IDE agent personas in the BMAD-METHOD framework.
-
-## Behavior
-
-### Listing Available Agents
-
-When no agent name is provided:
-
-1. Read the `bmad-core/ide-agents/` directory
-2. Look for files matching the pattern `*.ide.md`
-3. Extract agent names from filenames (the part before `.ide.md`)
-4. Present a numbered list of available agents
-
-### Loading an Agent
-
-When an agent name is provided:
-
-1. Attempt to load `bmad-core/ide-agents/{agent-name}.ide.md`
-2. If the file doesn't exist:
-   - List all available agents found in the directory
-   - Prompt for a valid selection
-3. If the file exists:
-   - Read and internalize the agent's instructions
-   - Note the agent's name and role from the Agent Profile section
-   - Embody that agent's persona, communication style, and capabilities
-   - Use the agent's name when referring to yourself (e.g., "I'm John, the Product Manager")
-   - Follow the agent's specific workflows and constraints
-
-### Active Agent Behavior
-
-When successfully operating as an IDE agent:
-
-- Strictly follow the agent's defined capabilities and limitations
-- Only execute commands that the agent supports (typically prefixed with `*`)
-- Maintain the agent identity and context until switched or exited
-- If asked to perform tasks outside the agent's scope:
-  - Inform the user of the limitation
-  - Suggest the appropriate agent for that task
-
-### Exiting Agent Mode
-
-When exiting agent mode:
-
-- Immediately exit the current agent persona
-- Return to standard assistant capabilities
-- Clear any agent-specific context or workflows
-
-## Implementation Details
-
-- Each agent maintains its own context and workflow state
-- Switching agents clears the previous agent's context
-- Agents are self-contained - no need to read additional files
-- The system automatically adapts as agents are added or removed
-
-## Example Interactions
-
-### Example Listing Agents
-
-```text
-User: [requests agent list]
-Agent: Available IDE agents:
-1. architect
-2. dev
-3. devops
-4. pm
-5. po
-6. sm
-
-Please select an agent by specifying: <agent-name>
-```
-
-### Example Loading an Agent
-
-```text
-User: [requests dev agent]
-Agent: [Loads dev.ide.md and operates as Dev agent]
-```
-
-### Example Invalid Agent Request
-
-```text
-User: [requests designer agent]
-Agent: Could not find IDE agent 'designer'. Available agents:
-1. architect
-2. dev
-3. devops
-4. pm
-5. po
-6. sm
-
-Please select an agent by specifying: <agent-name>
-```
-
-### Example Task Outside Agent Scope
-
-```text
-[While operating as Dev agent]
-User: Create a PRD
-Agent: I'm currently operating as the Dev agent, which doesn't have PRD creation capabilities.
-The PM agent can create PRDs. Would you like me to switch to the PM agent?
-```
-
-### Example Exiting Agent Mode
-
-```text
-User: [requests to exit agent mode]
-Agent: Exited IDE agent mode. Returned to standard assistant capabilities.

-# Roo Code Custom Modes for BMAD-METHOD
-
-This directory contains custom mode configurations for Roo Code to enable BMAD agent personalities.
-
-## Setup
-
-The `.roomodes` file defines all BMAD agents as custom modes using the proper `customModes:` structure. Modes are automatically available in Roo Code when you open this project.
-
-## Available Modes
-
-- **bmad-analyst** - Business Analyst
-- **bmad-architect** - Solution Architect
-- **bmad-bmad-master** - BMAD Master
-- **bmad-bmad-orchestrator** - BMAD Orchestrator

-- **bmad-qa** - QA Specialist
-- **bmad-sm** - Scrum Master
-- **bmad-ux-expert** - UX Expert
-
-## Usage
-
-In Roo Code:
-
-1. Open the mode selector (usually in the status bar)
-2. Select any BMAD agent mode
-3. The AI will adopt that agent's personality and expertise
-
-## File Permissions
-
-Each agent has specific file access permissions:
-
-- **Analysts, PM, PO, SM**: Limited to documentation files (.md, .txt)
-- **Architect**: Architecture docs and configs (.md, .txt, .yml, .yaml, .json)
-- **QA**: Test files and documentation
-- **UX Expert**: Design-related files (.md, .css, .scss, .html, .jsx, .tsx)
-- **Developer, Orchestrator, Master**: Full edit access to all files

+- Implementation workflow (SM/Dev cycles)
+
+**Cost-Saving Tip**: Create large documents (PRDs, architecture) in web UI, then copy to `docs/prd.md` and `docs/architecture.md` in your project before switching to IDE for development.
+
+## Core Philosophy
+
+### Vibe CEO'ing
+
+You are the "Vibe CEO" - thinking like a CEO with unlimited resources and a singular vision. Your AI agents are your high-powered team, and your role is to:
+
+- **Direct**: Provide clear instructions and objectives
+- **Refine**: Iterate on outputs to achieve quality
+- **Oversee**: Maintain strategic alignment across all agents
+
+### Core Principles
+
+1. **MAXIMIZE_AI_LEVERAGE**: Push the AI to deliver more. Challenge outputs and iterate.
+2. **QUALITY_CONTROL**: You are the ultimate arbiter of quality. Review all outputs.
+3. **STRATEGIC_OVERSIGHT**: Maintain the high-level vision and ensure alignment.
+4. **ITERATIVE_REFINEMENT**: Expect to revisit steps. This is not a linear process.
+5. **CLEAR_INSTRUCTIONS**: Precise requests lead to better outputs.
+6. **DOCUMENTATION_IS_KEY**: Good inputs (briefs, PRDs) lead to good outputs.
+7. **START_SMALL_SCALE_FAST**: Test concepts, then expand.
+8. **EMBRACE_THE_CHAOS**: Adapt and overcome challenges.
+
+### Key Workflow Principles
+
+1. **Agent Specialization**: Each agent has specific expertise and responsibilities
+2. **Clean Handoffs**: Always start fresh when switching between agents
+3. **Status Tracking**: Maintain story statuses (Draft → Approved → InProgress → Done)
+4. **Iterative Development**: Complete one story before starting the next
+5. **Documentation First**: Always start with solid PRD and architecture
+

+
+## Core Architecture
+
+### System Overview
+
+The BMAD-Method is built around a modular architecture centered on the `bmad-core` directory, which serves as the brain of the entire system. This design enables the framework to operate effectively in both IDE environments (like Cursor, VS Code) and web-based AI interfaces (like ChatGPT, Gemini).
+
+### Key Architectural Components
+
+#### 1. Agents (`bmad-core/agents/`)
+- **Purpose**: Each markdown file defines a specialized AI agent for a specific Agile role (PM, Dev, Architect, etc.)
+- **Structure**: Contains YAML headers specifying the agent's persona, capabilities, and dependencies
+- **Dependencies**: Lists of tasks, templates, checklists, and data files the agent can use
+- **Startup Instructions**: Can load project-specific documentation for immediate context
+
+#### 2. Agent Teams (`bmad-core/agent-teams/`)
+- **Purpose**: Define collections of agents bundled together for specific purposes
+- **Examples**: `team-all.yml` (comprehensive bundle), `team-fullstack.yml` (full-stack development)
+- **Usage**: Creates pre-packaged contexts for web UI environments
+
+#### 3. Workflows (`bmad-core/workflows/`)
+- **Purpose**: YAML files defining prescribed sequences of steps for specific project types
+- **Types**: Greenfield (new projects) and Brownfield (existing projects) for UI, service, and fullstack development
+- **Structure**: Defines agent interactions, artifacts created, and transition conditions
+
+#### 4. Reusable Resources
+- **Templates** (`bmad-core/templates/`): Markdown templates for PRDs, architecture specs, user stories
+- **Tasks** (`bmad-core/tasks/`): Instructions for specific repeatable actions like "shard-doc" or "create-next-story"
+- **Checklists** (`bmad-core/checklists/`): Quality assurance checklists for validation and review
+- **Data** (`bmad-core/data/`): Core knowledge base and technical preferences
+
+### Dual Environment Architecture
+
+#### IDE Environment
+
+- Users interact directly with agent markdown files
+- Agents can access all dependencies dynamically
+- Supports real-time file operations and project integration
+- Optimized for development workflow execution
+
+#### Web UI Environment
+
+- Uses pre-built bundles from `dist/teams` for stand alone 1 upload files for all agents and their assest with an orchestrating agent
+- Single text files containing all agent dependencies are in `dist/agents/` - these are unnecessary unless you want to create a web agent that is only a single agent and not a team
+- Created by the web-builder tool for upload to web interfaces
+- Provides complete context in one package
+
+### Template Processing System
+
+BMAD employs a sophisticated template system with three key components:
+
+1. **Template Format** (`utils/template-format.md`): Defines markup language for variable substitution and AI processing directives
+2. **Document Creation** (`tasks/create-doc.md`): Orchestrates template selection and user interaction
+3. **Advanced Elicitation** (`tasks/advanced-elicitation.md`): Provides interactive refinement through structured brainstorming
+
+**Template Features**:
+
+- **Self-contained**: Templates embed both output structure and processing instructions
+- **Variable Substitution**: `{{placeholders}}` for dynamic content
+- **AI Processing Directives**: `[[LLM: instructions]]` for AI-only processing
+- **Interactive Refinement**: Built-in elicitation processes for quality improvement
+
+### Technical Preferences Integration
+
+The `technical-preferences.md` file serves as a persistent technical profile that:
+- Ensures consistency across all agents and projects
+- Eliminates repetitive technology specification
+- Provides personalized recommendations aligned with user preferences
+- Evolves over time with lessons learned
+
+### Build and Delivery Process
+
+The `web-builder.js` tool creates web-ready bundles by:
+1. Reading agent or team definition files
+2. Recursively resolving all dependencies
+3. Concatenating content into single text files with clear separators
+4. Outputting ready-to-upload bundles for web AI interfaces
+
+This architecture enables seamless operation across environments while maintaining the rich, interconnected agent ecosystem that makes BMAD powerful.
+
+## Complete Development Workflow
+
+### Planning Phase (Web UI Recommended)
+
+**Ideal for cost efficiency, especially with Gemini:**
+
+1. **Optional Analysis**: `/analyst` - Market research, competitive analysis
+2. **Project Brief**: Create foundation document (Analyst or user)
+3. **PRD Creation**: `/pm create-doc prd` - Comprehensive product requirements
+4. **Architecture Design**: `/architect create-doc architecture` - Technical foundation
+5. **Validation & Alignment**: `/po` run master checklist to ensure document consistency
+6. **Document Preparation**: Copy final documents to project as `docs/prd.md` and `docs/architecture.md`
+
+#### Example Planning Prompts
+
+**For PRD Creation**:
+```text
+"I want to build a [type] application that [core purpose].
+Help me brainstorm features and create a comprehensive PRD."
+```
+
+**For Architecture Design**:
+```text
+"Based on this PRD, design a scalable technical architecture
+that can handle [specific requirements]."
+```
+
+### Critical Transition: Web UI to IDE
+
+**Once planning is complete, you MUST switch to IDE for development:**
+
+- **Why**: Development workflow requires file operations, real-time project integration, and document sharding
+- **Cost Benefit**: Web UI is more cost-effective for large document creation; IDE is optimized for development tasks
+- **Required Files**: Ensure `docs/prd.md` and `docs/architecture.md` exist in your project
+
+### IDE Development Workflow
+
+**Prerequisites**: Planning documents must exist in `docs/` folder
+
+1. **Document Sharding**: 
+   - `@bmad-master` or `@po` shard `docs/prd.md` to `docs/prd/` folder
+   - If architecture exists, shard to `docs/architecture/` folder
+   - Results in multiple manageable documents and epic files
+
+2. **Verify Sharded Content**:
+   - At least one `epic-n.md` file in `docs/prd/` with stories in development order
+   - Source tree document and coding standards for dev agent reference
+   - Sharded docs for SM agent story creation
+
+**Resulting Folder Structure**:
+- `docs/prd/` - Broken down PRD sections
+- `docs/architecture/` - Broken down architecture sections
+- `docs/stories/` - Generated user stories
+
+3. **Development Cycle** (Sequential, one story at a time):
+
+   **Step 1 - Story Creation**: New chat window → `@sm` → `*create`
+   - SM executes create-next-story task
+   - Review generated story in `docs/stories/`
+   - Update status from "Draft" to "Approved"
+   
+   **Step 2 - Story Implementation**: New chat window → `@dev`
+   - Agent asks which story to implement
+   - Include story file content to save dev agent lookup time
+   - Dev follows tasks/subtasks, marking completion
+   - Dev leaves notes for SM about any deviations
+   - Update status to "Done"
+   
+   **Step 3 - Repeat**: Continue SM → Dev cycle until all epic stories complete
+
+**Important**: Only 1 story in progress at a time, worked sequentially until all epic stories complete.
+
+### Status Tracking Workflow
+
+Stories progress through defined statuses:
+- **Draft** → **Approved** → **InProgress** → **Done**
+
+Each status change requires user verification and approval before proceeding.
+
+### Workflow Types
+
+#### Greenfield Development
+- Business analysis and market research
+- Product requirements and feature definition  
+- System architecture and design
+- Development execution
+- Testing and deployment
+
+#### Brownfield Enhancement
+- Current system analysis
+- Enhancement planning
+- Impact assessment
+- Incremental development
+- Integration testing
+
+## Document Creation Best Practices
+
+### Required File Naming for Framework Integration
+
+- `docs/prd.md` - Product Requirements Document
+- `docs/architecture.md` - System Architecture Document
+
+**Why These Names Matter**:
+- Agents automatically reference these files during development
+- Sharding tasks expect these specific filenames
+- Workflow automation depends on standard naming
+
+### Cost-Effective Document Creation Workflow
+
+**Recommended for Large Documents (PRD, Architecture):**
+
+1. **Use Web UI**: Create documents in web interface for cost efficiency
+2. **Copy Final Output**: Save complete markdown to your project
+3. **Standard Names**: Save as `docs/prd.md` and `docs/architecture.md`
+4. **Switch to IDE**: Use IDE agents for development and smaller documents
+
+### Document Sharding
+
+Templates with Level 2 headings (`##`) can be automatically sharded:
+
+**Original PRD**:
+```markdown
+## Goals and Background Context
+## Requirements  
+## User Interface Design Goals
+## Success Metrics
+```
+
+**After Sharding**:
+- `docs/prd/goals-and-background-context.md`
+- `docs/prd/requirements.md`
+- `docs/prd/user-interface-design-goals.md`
+- `docs/prd/success-metrics.md`
+
+Use the `shard-doc` task or `@kayvan/markdown-tree-parser` tool for automatic sharding.
+
+## Usage Patterns and Best Practices
+
+### Environment-Specific Usage
+
+**Web UI Best For**:
+- Initial planning and documentation phases
+- Cost-effective large document creation
+- Agent consultation and brainstorming
+- Multi-agent workflows with orchestrator
+
+**IDE Best For**:
+- Active development and implementation
+- File operations and project integration
+- Story management and development cycles
+- Code review and debugging
+
+### Quality Assurance
+
+- Use appropriate agents for specialized tasks
+- Follow Agile ceremonies and review processes
+- Maintain document consistency with PO agent
+- Regular validation with checklists and templates
+
+### Performance Optimization
+
+- Use specific agents vs. `bmad-master` for focused tasks
+- Choose appropriate team size for project needs
+- Leverage technical preferences for consistency
+- Regular context management and cache clearing
+
+## Success Tips
+
+- **Use Gemini for big picture planning** - The team-fullstack bundle provides collaborative expertise
+- **Use bmad-master for document organization** - Sharding creates manageable chunks
+- **Follow the SM → Dev cycle religiously** - This ensures systematic progress
+- **Keep conversations focused** - One agent, one task per conversation
+- **Review everything** - Always review and approve before marking complete
+
+## Getting Help
+
+- **Commands**: Use `/help` in any environment to see available commands
+- **Agent Switching**: Use `/switch agent-name` with orchestrator for role changes
+- **Documentation**: Check `docs/` folder for project-specific context
+- **Community**: Discord and GitHub resources available for support

 ## Task Execution Instructions
 
+### 0. Load Core Configuration
+
+[[LLM: CRITICAL - This MUST be your first step]]
+
+- Load `.bmad-core/core-config.yml` from the project root
+- If the file does not exist:
+  - HALT and inform the user: "core-config.yml not found. This file is required for story creation. You can:
+    1. Copy it from GITHUB BMAD-METHOD/bmad-core/core-config.yml and configure it for your project
+    2. Run the BMAD installer against your project to upgrade and add the file automatically
+    Please add and configure core-config.yml before proceeding."
+- Extract the following key configurations:
+  - `dev-story-location`: Where to save story files
+  - `prd.prdSharded`: Whether PRD is sharded or monolithic
+  - `prd.prd-file`: Location of monolithic PRD (if not sharded)
+  - `prd.prdShardedLocation`: Location of sharded epic files
+  - `prd.epicFilePattern`: Pattern for epic files (e.g., `epic-{n}*.md`)
+  - `architecture.architectureVersion`: Architecture document version
+  - `architecture.architectureSharded`: Whether architecture is sharded
+  - `architecture.architecture-file`: Location of monolithic architecture
+  - `architecture.architectureShardedLocation`: Location of sharded architecture files
+
 ### 1. Identify Next Story for Preparation
 
 #### 1.1 Locate Epic Files
 
-- First, determine where epic files are located:
-  - Check `docs/prd/` for files matching pattern `epic-{n}-*.md`
-  - If not found, check `docs/epics/` for files matching pattern `epic-{n}-*.md`
-  - If still not found, ask user: "Unable to locate epic files. Please specify the path where epic files are stored."
-- Note: Epic files follow naming convention `epic-{n}-{description}.md` (e.g., `epic-1-foundation-core-infrastructure.md`)
+- Based on `prdSharded` from config:
+  - **If `prdSharded: true`**: Look for epic files in `prdShardedLocation` using `epicFilePattern`
+  - **If `prdSharded: false`**: Load the full PRD from `prd-file` and extract epics from section headings (## Epic N or ### Epic N)
 
 #### 1.2 Review Existing Stories
 
-- Review `docs/stories/` to find the highest-numbered story file.
+- Check `dev-story-location` from config (e.g., `docs/stories/`) for existing story files
+- If the directory exists and has at least 1 file, find the highest-numbered story file.
 - **If a highest story file exists (`{lastEpicNum}.{lastStoryNum}.story.md`):**

+# Document Migration Task
+
+## Purpose
+
+Simple document migration that cleans up heading formats and adds epic structure for PRDs.
+
+## Task Requirements
+
+1. **Input**: User specifies the document to migrate (e.g., `docs/prd.md`)
+2. **Detection**: Automatically determine if it's a PRD or other document type
+3. **Migration**: Apply appropriate transformations
+4. **Backup**: Create backup with `.bak` extension
+
+## Migration Rules
+
+### For PRDs
+
+- Find all level 3 headings that appear to be epics
+- Add a level 2 heading "## Epic #" (incrementing number) before each epic
+- Also apply the heading cleanup rules below
+
+### For All Documents
+
+- Find all level 2 headings (`## ...`)
+- Remove leading numbers and symbols
+- Keep only alphabetic characters and spaces
+- **CRITICAL**: Do not lose any information - preserve all content under appropriate headings
+- Examples:
+  - `## 1. Foo & Bar` → `## Foo Bar`
+  - `## 2.1 Technical Overview` → `## Technical Overview`
+  - `## 3) User Experience` → `## User Experience`
+
+### For Architecture Documents
+
+- **PRIMARY GOAL**: Align level 2 headings to match template level 2 titles exactly
+- **PRESERVE EVERYTHING**: Do not lose any information during migration
+- Map existing content to the closest matching template section
+- If content doesn't fit template sections, create appropriate level 3 subsections
+
+## Detection Logic
+
+A document is considered a PRD if:
+
+- Filename contains "prd" (case insensitive)
+- OR main title contains "Product Requirements" or "PRD"
+- OR contains sections like "User Stories", "Functional Requirements", "Acceptance Criteria"
+
+## Implementation Steps
+
+1. **Backup Original**: Copy `filename.md` to `filename.md.bak`
+2. **Detect Type**: Check if document is a PRD
+3. **Process Headings**:
+   - Clean all level 2 headings
+   - If PRD: Add epic structure before level 3 headings that look like epics
+4. **Write Result**: Overwrite original file with migrated content
+
+## Epic Detection for PRDs
+
+Level 3 headings are treated as epics if they:
+
+- Describe features or functionality
+- Are substantial sections (not just "Overview" or "Notes")
+- Common epic patterns: "User Management", "Payment Processing", "Reporting Dashboard"
+
+The epic numbering starts at 1 and increments for each epic found.
+
+## Example
+
+### Before (PRD):
+
+```markdown
+# Product Requirements Document
+
+## 1. Executive Summary
+
+Content here...
+
+## 2.1 Functional Requirements & Specs
+
+Content here...
+
+### User Management System
+
+Epic content...
+
+### Payment Processing
+
+Epic content...
+
+## 3) Success Metrics

+
+```
+
+### After (PRD):
+
+```markdown
+# Product Requirements Document
+
+## Executive Summary
+Content here...
+
+## Functional Requirements Specs
+Content here...
+
+## Epic 1
+### User Management System

+# Document an Existing Project
+
+## Purpose
+
+Generate comprehensive documentation for existing projects optimized for AI development agents. This task creates structured reference materials that enable AI agents to understand project context, conventions, and patterns for effective contribution to any codebase.
+
+## Task Instructions
+
+### 1. Initial Project Analysis
+
+[[LLM: Begin by conducting a comprehensive analysis of the existing project. Use available tools to:
+
+1. **Project Structure Discovery**: Examine the root directory structure, identify main folders, and understand the overall organization
+2. **Technology Stack Identification**: Look for package.json, requirements.txt, Cargo.toml, pom.xml, etc. to identify languages, frameworks, and dependencies
+3. **Build System Analysis**: Find build scripts, CI/CD configurations, and development commands
+4. **Existing Documentation Review**: Check for README files, docs folders, and any existing documentation
+5. **Code Pattern Analysis**: Sample key files to understand coding patterns, naming conventions, and architectural approaches
+
+Ask the user these elicitation questions to better understand their needs:

+
+Present each document section by section, using the advanced elicitation task after each major section.]]
+
+### 3. Document Structure Template
+
+[[LLM: Use this standardized structure for each documentation file, adapting content as needed:
+
+```markdown
+# {{Document Title}}

+
+{{Comprehensive information organized into logical sections}}
+
+## Examples
+
+{{Concrete examples showing proper usage or implementation}}
+
+## Common Patterns
+
+{{Recurring patterns agents should recognize and follow}}
+
+## Things to Avoid
+
+{{Anti-patterns, deprecated approaches, or common mistakes}}
+
+## Related Resources
+
+{{Links to other relevant documentation or external resources}}
+```
+
+Each document should be:
+
+- **Concrete and actionable** - Focus on what agents need to do, not just concepts
+- **Pattern-focused** - Highlight recurring patterns agents can recognize and replicate
+- **Example-rich** - Include specific code examples and real file references
+- **Context-aware** - Reference actual project files, folders, and conventions

+   - Create a simple checklist for keeping docs current
+   - Suggest automated validation approaches
+
+5. Summary report including:
+   - List of all documents created with their paths
+   - Any gaps or areas needing human review
+   - Recommendations for project-specific additions
+   - Next steps for maintaining documentation accuracy
+
+Present a summary of what was created and ask if any additional documentation would be helpful for AI agents working on this specific project.]]

+# Create AI Frontend Prompt Task
+
+## Purpose
+
+To generate a masterful, comprehensive, and optimized prompt that can be used with any AI-driven frontend development tool (e.g., Vercel v0, Lovable.ai, or similar) to scaffold or generate significant portions of a frontend application.
+
+## Inputs
+
+- Completed UI/UX Specification (`front-end-spec`)
+- Completed Frontend Architecture Document (`front-end-architecture`) or a full stack combined architecture such as `architecture.md`
+- Main System Architecture Document (`architecture` - for API contracts and tech stack to give further context)
+
+## Key Activities & Instructions
+
+### 1. Core Prompting Principles
+
+Before generating the prompt, you must understand these core principles for interacting with a generative AI for code.
+
+- **Be Explicit and Detailed**: The AI cannot read your mind. Provide as much detail and context as possible. Vague requests lead to generic or incorrect outputs.
+- **Iterate, Don't Expect Perfection**: Generating an entire complex application in one go is rare. The most effective method is to prompt for one component or one section at a time, then build upon the results.
+- **Provide Context First**: Always start by providing the AI with the necessary context, such as the tech stack, existing code snippets, and overall project goals.
+- **Mobile-First Approach**: Frame all UI generation requests with a mobile-first design mindset. Describe the mobile layout first, then provide separate instructions for how it should adapt for tablet and desktop.
+
+### 2. The Structured Prompting Framework
+
+To ensure the highest quality output, you MUST structure every prompt using the following four-part framework.
+
+1. **High-Level Goal**: Start with a clear, concise summary of the overall objective. This orients the AI on the primary task.
+   - _Example: "Create a responsive user registration form with client-side validation and API integration."_
+2. **Detailed, Step-by-Step Instructions**: Provide a granular, numbered list of actions the AI should take. Break down complex tasks into smaller, sequential steps. This is the most critical part of the prompt.
+   - _Example: "1. Create a new file named `RegistrationForm.js`. 2. Use React hooks for state management. 3. Add styled input fields for 'Name', 'Email', and 'Password'. 4. For the email field, ensure it is a valid email format. 5. On submission, call the API endpoint defined below."_
+3. **Code Examples, Data Structures & Constraints**: Include any relevant snippets of existing code, data structures, or API contracts. This gives the AI concrete examples to work with. Crucially, you must also state what _not_ to do.
+   - _Example: "Use this API endpoint: `POST /api/register`. The expected JSON payload is `{ "name": "string", "email": "string", "password": "string" }`. Do NOT include a 'confirm password' field. Use Tailwind CSS for all styling."_
+4. **Define a Strict Scope**: Explicitly define the boundaries of the task. Tell the AI which files it can modify and, more importantly, which files to leave untouched to prevent unintended changes across the codebase.
+   - _Example: "You should only create the `RegistrationForm.js` component and add it to the `pages/register.js` file. Do NOT alter the `Navbar.js` component or any other existing page or component."_
+
+### 3. Assembling the Master Prompt
+
+You will now synthesize the inputs and the above principles into a final, comprehensive prompt.
+
+1. **Gather Foundational Context**:
+   - Start the prompt with a preamble describing the overall project purpose, the full tech stack (e.g., Next.js, TypeScript, Tailwind CSS), and the primary UI component library being used.
+2. **Describe the Visuals**:
+   - If the user has design files (Figma, etc.), instruct them to provide links or screenshots.
+   - If not, describe the visual style: color palette, typography, spacing, and overall aesthetic (e.g., "minimalist", "corporate", "playful").
+3. **Build the Prompt using the Structured Framework**:
+   - Follow the four-part framework from Section 2 to build out the core request, whether it's for a single component or a full page.
+4. **Present and Refine**:
+   - Output the complete, generated prompt in a clear, copy-pasteable format (e.g., a large code block).
+   - Explain the structure of the prompt and why certain information was included, referencing the principles above.
+   - <important_note>Conclude by reminding the user that all AI-generated code will require careful human review, testing, and refinement to be considered production-ready.</important_note>
