-# 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.
-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.

-# Create IDE Agent Task
-
-This task guides you through creating a new BMAD IDE agent that conforms to the IDE agent schema and integrates effectively with workflows and teams.
-
-**Note for User-Created IDE Agents**: If creating a custom IDE agent for your own use (not part of the core BMAD system), prefix the agent ID with a period (e.g., `.api-expert`) to ensure it's gitignored and won't conflict with repository updates.
-
-## Prerequisites
-
-1. Load and understand the IDE agent schema: `/bmad-core/schemas/ide-agent-schema.yml`
-2. Review existing IDE agents in `/bmad-core/ide-agents/` for patterns and conventions
-3. Review workflows in `/bmad-core/workflows/` to identify integration opportunities
-4. Consider if this agent should also have a full agent counterpart
-
-## Process
-
-### 1. Define Agent Core Identity
-
-Based on the schema's required fields:
-
-- **Role**: Must end with "IDE Agent" (pattern: `^.+ IDE Agent$`)
-  - Example: "API Specialist IDE Agent", "Test Engineer IDE Agent"
-- **Agent ID**: Following pattern `^[a-z][a-z0-9-]*$`
-  - For user agents: prefix with period (`.api-expert`)
-- **Primary Purpose**: Define ONE focused capability
-
-### 2. Create File References
-
-All IDE agents must include (per schema):
-
-```yaml
-taskroot: "bmad-core/tasks/"  # Required constant
-templates: "bmad-core/templates/"  # Optional but common
-checklists: "bmad-core/checklists/"  # Optional
-default-template: "bmad-core/templates/{template-name}"  # If agent creates documents
-```
-
-Additional custom references as needed (e.g., `story-path`, `coding-standards`)
-
-### 3. Define Persona (Schema Required Fields)
-
-Create concise persona following schema structure:
-
-- **Name**: Character name (e.g., "Alex", "Dana")
-- **Role**: Professional role title
-- **Identity**: Extended specialization (20+ chars)
-- **Focus**: Primary objectives (20+ chars)
-- **Style**: Communication approach (20+ chars)
-
-Keep descriptions brief for IDE efficiency!
-
-### 4. Core Principles (Minimum 3 Required)
-
-Must include these based on schema validation:
-
-1. **Numbered Options Protocol** (REQUIRED): "When presenting multiple options, always use numbered lists for easy selection"
-2. **[Domain-Specific Principle]**: Related to agent's expertise
-3. **[Quality/Efficiency Principle]**: How they ensure excellence
-4. Additional principles as needed (keep concise)
-
-### 5. Critical Startup Operating Instructions
-
-First instruction MUST announce name/role and mention *help (schema requirement):
-
-```markdown
-1. Announce your name and role, and let the user know they can say *help at any time to list the commands on your first response as a reminder even if their initial request is a question, wrapping the question. For Example 'I am {role} {name}, {response}... Also remember, you can enter `*help` to see a list of commands at any time.'
-```
-
-Add 2-5 additional startup instructions specific to the agent's role.
-
-### 6. Commands (Minimum 2 Required)
-
-Required commands per schema:
-
-```markdown
-- `*help` - Show these available commands as a numbered list offering selection
-- `*chat-mode` - Enter conversational mode, staying in character while offering `advanced-elicitation` when providing advice or multiple options. Ends if other task or command is given
-```
-
-Add role-specific commands:
-- Use pattern: `^\\*[a-z][a-z0-9-]*( \\{[^}]+\\})?$`
-- Include clear descriptions (10+ chars)
-- Reference tasks when appropriate
-
-### 7. Workflow Integration Analysis
-
-Analyze where this IDE agent fits in workflows:
-
-1. **Load workflow definitions** from `/bmad-core/workflows/`
-2. **Identify integration points**:
-   - Which workflow phases benefit from this agent?
-   - Can they replace or augment existing workflow steps?
-   - Do they enable new workflow capabilities?
-
-3. **Suggest workflow enhancements**:
-   - For technical agents → development/implementation phases
-   - For testing agents → validation phases
-   - For design agents → planning/design phases
-   - For specialized agents → specific workflow steps
-
-4. **Document recommendations**:
-   ```markdown
-   ## Workflow Integration
-   
-   This agent enhances the following workflows:
-   - `greenfield-service`: API design phase (between architecture and implementation)
-   - `brownfield-service`: API refactoring and modernization
-   - User can specify: {custom workflow integration}
-   ```
-
-### 8. Team Integration Suggestions
-
-Consider which teams benefit from this IDE agent:
-
-1. **Analyze team compositions** in `/bmad-core/agent-teams/`
-2. **Suggest team additions**:
-   - Technical specialists → development teams

-
-### 9. Create the IDE Agent File
-
-Create `/bmad-core/ide-agents/{agent-id}.ide.md` following schema structure:
-(For user agents: `/bmad-core/ide-agents/.{agent-id}.ide.md`)
-
-```markdown
-# Role: {Title} IDE Agent
-
-## File References
-
-`taskroot`: `bmad-core/tasks/`
-`templates`: `bmad-core/templates/`
-{additional references}
-

-# 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` (required orchestrator)
-- `sm` - Sprint coordination
-- `dev` - Implementation
-- `qa` - Quality assurance
-- `architect` - Technical guidance
-
-**For Full-Stack Teams:**
-- `bmad` (required orchestrator)
-- `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 
-    robust service architecture, implementation, and testing without UI 
-    components. Ideal for microservices, REST APIs, and backend systems.
-
-agents:
-  - bmad
-  - analyst
-  - architect
-  - dev
-  - qa
-  - po
-
-workflows:
-  - greenfield-service
-  - brownfield-service
-```
-
-### Example 2: Rapid Prototyping Team
-
-```yaml
-bundle:
-  name: "Team Prototype"
-  description: >-
-    Agile team for rapid prototyping and proof of concept development. 
-    Combines planning, design, and implementation for quick iterations 
-    on new ideas and experimental features.
-
-agents:
-  - bmad
-  - pm
-  - ux-expert
-  - architect
-  - dev
-
-workflows:
-  - greenfield-ui
-  - greenfield-fullstack
-```
-
-## 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.

-# 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>

+# 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
+
+
+
+## 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

 **AI-Powered Agile Development Framework** - Transform your software development with specialized AI agents that work as your complete Agile team.
 
+📺 **[Subscribe to BMadCode on YouTube](https://www.youtube.com/@BMadCode?sub_confirmation=1)** - V4 walkthrough and comprehensive guide coming soon!
+
+⭐ **If you find this project helpful or useful, please give it a star!** It helps others discover BMAD-METHOD and you will be notified of updates!
+
 ## 🚀 Quick Start
 
-### Install a Single Agent (Recommended for First Time)
+### Fastest Start: Web UI (2 minutes) 🏃‍♂️
 
-```bash
-npx bmad-method install --agent pm --ide cursor
-```
+1. Copy `.bmad-core/web-bundles/teams/team-fullstack.txt`
+2. Create a new Gemini Gem or CustomGPT
+3. Upload the file and set instructions: "Your critical operating instructions are attached, do not break character as directed"
+4. Start chatting! Type `/help` to see available commands
 
-This installs the Product Manager agent with all its dependencies and configures it for your IDE.
+### IDE Quick Start (5 minutes) 💻
 
-### Install Complete Framework
+**Prerequisites**: Install [Node.js](https://nodejs.org) (v14 or higher)
 
-```bash
-npx bmad-method install --full --ide cursor
-```
+````bash
+npx bmad-method install
+# The installer will automatically detect your project state and guide you through:
+# - Fresh installation or upgrade from v3
+# - Full installation or single agent
+# - Destination folder and IDE configuration
+```text
+
+This installs all agents and configures them for your IDE. If you have an existing v3 installation, it will offer to upgrade it automatically.

 ## Installation
 
-### Method 1: CLI Installer (Recommended) 🎯
+### Method 1: Pre-Built Web Bundles (Fastest) 📦
 
-The easiest way to get started is with our interactive CLI installer:
+For ChatGPT, Claude, or Gemini web interfaces:
+
+1. Choose a bundle:
+   - **Recommended**: `.bmad-core/web-bundles/teams/team-fullstack.txt` (complete development team)
+   - Or pick from individual agents in `.bmad-core/web-bundles/agents/`
+2. Upload to your AI platform (Gemini Gem, CustomGPT, or directly in chat)
+3. Set instructions: "Your critical operating instructions are attached, do not break character as directed"
+4. Type `/help` to see available commands
+
+### Method 2: CLI Installer (For IDEs) 🎯
+
+**Prerequisites**: Install [Node.js](https://nodejs.org) v14+ first
+
+Install directly into your project:
 
 ```bash
-# Interactive installation
+# Interactive installation (recommended)
 npx bmad-method install
+# The installer automatically detects your project state and guides you through:
+# - Fresh installation or upgrade from v3
+# - Installation type (full/single agent)
+# - Destination directory
+# - IDE configuration
 
-# Install specific agent
-npx bmad-method install --agent pm --ide cursor
-
-# Install everything
-npx bmad-method install --full --ide claude-code
-```
+# Or use command line options for fresh installations
+npx bmad-method install --full --directory ./my-project --ide cursor
+npx bmad-method install --agent pm --directory ./my-project --ide claude-code
+````
 
 **Supported IDEs:**
 
-The BMad Method works with any idea, but there are some built in install helpers, more coming soon.
+The BMad Method works with any IDE, but has built-in integration for:
 
 - `cursor` - Cursor IDE with @agent commands
 - `claude-code` - Claude Code with /agent commands
 - `windsurf` - Windsurf with @agent commands
-
-### Method 2: Pre-Built Web Bundles 📦
-
-For ChatGPT, Claude, or Gemini web interfaces:
-
-1. Download bundles from `.bmad-core/web-bundles/`
-2. Upload a single `.txt` bundle file to your AI chat (agents or teams)
-3. Start with: "Your critical operating instructions are attached, do not break character as directed"
-4. Type `/help` to see available commands
+- `roo` - Roo Code with custom modes (see `.roomodes`)
+- More coming soon - BUT ITS easy to use with ANY IDE!

+# 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.
+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.
+
+## IDE Development Workflow
+
+1. Shard the PRD (And Architecture documents if they exist also based on workflow type) using the Doc Shard task. The BMad-Master agent can help you do this. You will select the task, provide the doc to shard and the output folder. for example: `BMad Master, please Shard the docs/prd.md to the doc/prd/ folder` - this should ask you to use the md-tree-parser which is recommended, but either way shoudl result in multiple documents being created in the folder docs/prd.
+2. If you have fullstack, front end and or back end architecture documents you will want to follow the same thing, but shard all of these to an architecture folder instead of a prd folder.
+3. Ensure that you have at least one epic-n.md file in your prd folder, with the stories in order to develop.
+4. The docs or architecture folder or prd folder should have a source tree document and coding standards at a minimum. These are used by the dev agent, and the many other sharded docs are used by the SM agent.
+5. Use a new chat window to allow the SM agent to `draft the next story`.
+6. If you agree the story is correct, mark it as approved in the status field, and then start a new chat window with the dev agent.
+7. Ask the dev agent to implement the next story. If you draft the story file into the chat it will save time for the dev to have to find what the next one is. The dev should follow the tasks and subtasks marking them off as they are completed. The dev agent will also leave notes potentially for the SM to know about any deviations that might have occured to help draft the next story.
+8. Once complete and you have verified, mark it done, and start a new chat. Ask the SM to draft the next story - repeating the cycle.
+
+With this work flow, there is only 1 story in progress at a time, worked sequentially.

+# 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

+# 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:
+
+- What is the primary purpose of this project?
+- Are there any specific areas of the codebase that are particularly complex or important for agents to understand?
+- What types of tasks do you expect AI agents to perform on this project? (e.g., bug fixes, feature additions, refactoring, testing)
+- Are there any existing documentation standards or formats you prefer?
+- What level of technical detail should the documentation target? (junior developers, senior developers, mixed team)
+  ]]
+
+### 2. Core Documentation Generation
+
+[[LLM: Based on your analysis, generate the following core documentation files. Adapt the content and structure to match the specific project type and context you discovered:
+
+**Core Documents (always generate):**
+
+1. **docs/index.md** - Master documentation index
+2. **docs/architecture/index.md** - Architecture documentation index
+3. **docs/architecture/coding-standards.md** - Coding conventions and style guidelines

+### 6. Quality Assurance
+
+[[LLM: Before completing each document:
+
+1. **Accuracy Check**: Verify all file paths, commands, and code examples work
+2. **Completeness Review**: Ensure the document covers the most important patterns an agent would encounter
+3. **Clarity Assessment**: Check that explanations are clear and actionable
+4. **Consistency Verification**: Ensure terminology and patterns align across all documents
+5. **Agent Perspective**: Review from the viewpoint of an AI agent that needs to contribute to this project
+
+Ask the user to review each completed document and use the advanced elicitation task to refine based on their feedback.]]
+
+### 7. Final Integration
+
+[[LLM: After all documents are completed:
+
+1. Ensure all documents are created in the proper BMAD-expected locations:
+
+   - Core docs in `docs/` (index.md, prd.md)
+   - Architecture shards in `docs/architecture/` subdirectory
+   - Create the `docs/architecture/` directory if it doesn't exist
+
+2. Create/update the master index documents:
+
+   - Update `docs/index.md` to reference all documentation
+   - Create `docs/architecture/index.md` listing all architecture shards
+
+3. Verify document cross-references:
+
+   - Ensure all documents link to related documentation
+   - Check that file paths match the actual project structure
+   - Validate that examples reference real files in the project
+
+4. Provide maintenance guidance:
+
+   - Document update triggers (when to update each doc)
+   - 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.]]
+
+## Success Criteria
+
+- Documentation enables AI agents to understand project context without additional explanation
+- All major architectural patterns and coding conventions are captured
+- Examples reference actual project files and demonstrate real usage
+- Documentation is structured consistently and easy to navigate
+- Content is actionable and focuses on what agents need to do, not just understand
+
+## Notes
+
+- This task is designed to work with any project type, language, or framework
+- The documentation should reflect the project as it actually is, not as it should be
+- Focus on patterns that agents can recognize and replicate consistently
+- Include both positive examples (what to do) and negative examples (what to avoid)

+# 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>
