+# Create Agent Task
+
+This task guides you through creating a new BMAD agent following the standard template.
+
+## Prerequisites
+
+- Agent template: `.bmad-core/templates/agent-tmpl.md`
+- Target directory: `.bmad-core/agents/`
+
+## Steps
+
+### 1. Gather Agent Information
+
+Collect the following information from the user:
+
+- **Agent ID**: Unique identifier (lowercase, hyphens allowed, e.g., `data-analyst`)
+- **Agent Name**: Display name (e.g., `Data Analyst`)
+- **Agent Title**: Professional title (e.g., `Data Analysis Specialist`)
+- **Role Description**: Brief description of the agent's primary role
+- **Communication Style**: How the agent communicates (e.g., `analytical, data-driven, clear`)
+- **Identity**: Detailed description of who this agent is
+- **Focus Areas**: Primary areas of expertise and focus
+- **Core Principles**: 3-5 guiding principles for the agent
+- **Customization**: Optional specific behaviors or overrides
+
+### 2. Define Agent Capabilities
+
+**IMPORTANT**:
+
+- If your agent will perform any actions → You MUST create corresponding tasks in `.bmad-core/tasks/`
+- If your agent will create any documents → You MUST create templates in `.bmad-core/templates/` AND include the `create-doc` task
+
+Determine:
+
+- **Custom Commands**: Agent-specific commands beyond the defaults
+- **Required Tasks**: Tasks from `.bmad-core/tasks/` the agent needs
+  - For any action the agent performs, a corresponding task file must exist
+  - Always include `create-doc` if the agent creates any documents
+- **Required Templates**: Templates from `.bmad-core/templates/` the agent uses
+  - For any document the agent can create, a template must exist
+- **Required Checklists**: Checklists the agent references
+- **Required Data**: Data files the agent needs access to
+- **Required Utils**: Utility files the agent uses
+
+### 3. Handle Missing Dependencies
+
+**Protocol for Missing Tasks/Templates:**
+
+1. Check if each required task/template exists
+2. For any missing items:
+   - Create a basic version following the appropriate template
+   - Track what was created in a list
+3. Continue with agent creation
+4. At the end, present a summary of all created items
+
+**Track Created Items:**
+
+```
+Created during agent setup:
+- Tasks:
+  - [ ] task-name-1.md
+  - [ ] task-name-2.md
+- Templates:
+  - [ ] template-name-1.md
+  - [ ] template-name-2.md
+```
+
+### 4. Create Agent File
+
+1. Copy the template from `.bmad-core/templates/agent-tmpl.md`
+2. Replace all placeholders with gathered information:
+
+   - `[AGENT_ID]` → agent id
+   - `[AGENT_NAME]` → agent name
+   - `[AGENT_TITLE]` → agent title
+   - `[AGENT_ROLE_DESCRIPTION]` → role description
+   - `[COMMUNICATION_STYLE]` → communication style
+   - `[AGENT_IDENTITY_DESCRIPTION]` → identity description
+   - `[PRIMARY_FOCUS_AREAS]` → focus areas
+   - `[PRINCIPLE_X]` → core principles
+   - `[OPTIONAL_CUSTOMIZATION]` → customization (or remove if none)
+   - `[DEFAULT_MODE_DESCRIPTION]` → description of default chat mode
+   - `[STARTUP_INSTRUCTIONS]` → what the agent should do on activation
+   - Add custom commands, tasks, templates, etc.
+
+3. Save as `.bmad-core/agents/[agent-id].md`
+
+### 4. Validate Agent
+
+Ensure:
+
+- All placeholders are replaced
+- Dependencies (tasks, templates, etc.) actually exist
+- Commands are properly formatted
+- YAML structure is valid
+
+### 5. Build and Test
+
+1. Run `npm run build:agents` to include in builds
+2. Test agent activation and commands
+3. Verify all dependencies load correctly
+
+### 6. Final Summary
+
+Present to the user:
+
+```
+✅ Agent Created: [agent-name]
+   Location: .bmad-core/agents/[agent-id].md
+
+📝 Dependencies Created:
+   Tasks:
+   - ✅ task-1.md - [brief description]
+   - ✅ task-2.md - [brief description]
+
+   Templates:
+   - ✅ template-1.md - [brief description]
+   - ✅ template-2.md - [brief description]
+
+⚠️  Next Steps:
+   1. Review and customize the created tasks/templates
+   2. Run npm run build:agents
+   3. Test the agent thoroughly
+```
+
+## Template Reference
+
+The agent template structure:
+
+- **activation-instructions**: How the AI should interpret the file
+- **agent**: Basic agent metadata
+- **persona**: Character and behavior definition
+- **startup**: Initial actions on activation
+- **commands**: Available commands (always include defaults)
+- **dependencies**: Required resources organized by type
+
+## Example Usage
+
+```yaml
+agent:
+  name: Data Analyst
+  id: data-analyst
+  title: Data Analysis Specialist
+
+persona:
+  role: Expert in data analysis, visualization, and insights extraction
+  style: analytical, data-driven, clear, methodical
+  identity: I am a seasoned data analyst who transforms raw data into actionable insights
+  focus: data exploration, statistical analysis, visualization, reporting
+
+  core_principles:
+    - Data integrity and accuracy above all
+    - Clear communication of complex findings
+    - Actionable insights over raw numbers
+```
+
+## Creating Missing Dependencies
+
+When a required task or template doesn't exist:
+
+1. **For Missing Tasks**: Create using `.bmad-core/templates/task-template.md`
+
+   - Name it descriptively (e.g., `analyze-metrics.md`)
+   - Define clear steps for the action
+   - Include any required inputs/outputs
+
+2. **For Missing Templates**: Create a basic structure
+
+   - Name it descriptively (e.g., `metrics-report-template.md`)
+   - Include placeholders for expected content
+   - Add sections relevant to the document type
+
+3. **Always Track**: Keep a list of everything created to report at the end
+
+## Important Reminders
+
+### Tasks and Templates Requirement
+
+- **Every agent action needs a task**: If an agent can "analyze data", there must be an `analyze-data.md` task
+- **Every document type needs a template**: If an agent can create reports, there must be a `report-template.md`
+- **Document creation requires**: Both the template AND the `create-doc` task in dependencies
+
+### Example Dependencies
+
+```yaml
+dependencies:
+  tasks:
+    - create-doc # Required if agent creates any documents
+    - analyze-requirements # Custom task for this agent
+    - generate-report # Another custom task
+  templates:
+    - requirements-doc # Template for requirements documents
+    - analysis-report # Template for analysis reports
+```
+
+## Notes
+
+- Keep agent definitions focused and specific
+- Ensure dependencies are minimal and necessary
+- Test thoroughly before distribution
+- Follow existing agent patterns for consistency
+- Remember: No task = agent can't do it, No template = agent can't create it

-# 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

-   - User proposed: {custom team integration}
-   ```
-
-### 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/`

+# 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

-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.
+This task guides you through creating a new BMAD agent following the standard template.
-
-**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`
+- Agent template: `.bmad-core/templates/agent-tmpl.md`
-2. Review existing IDE agents in `/bmad-core/ide-agents/` for patterns and conventions
+- Target directory: `.bmad-core/agents/`
-3. Review workflows in `/bmad-core/workflows/` to identify integration opportunities
-4. Consider if this agent should also have a full agent counterpart
 
-## Process
+## Steps
 
-### 1. Define Agent Core Identity
+### 1. Gather Agent Information
 
-Based on the schema's required fields:
+Collect the following information from the user:
 
-- **Role**: Must end with "IDE Agent" (pattern: `^.+ IDE Agent$`)
+- **Agent ID**: Unique identifier (lowercase, hyphens allowed, e.g., `data-analyst`)
-  - Example: "API Specialist IDE Agent", "Test Engineer IDE Agent"
+- **Agent Name**: Display name (e.g., `Data Analyst`)
-- **Agent ID**: Following pattern `^[a-z][a-z0-9-]*$`
+- **Agent Title**: Professional title (e.g., `Data Analysis Specialist`)
-  - For user agents: prefix with period (`.api-expert`)
+- **Role Description**: Brief description of the agent's primary role
-- **Primary Purpose**: Define ONE focused capability
+- **Communication Style**: How the agent communicates (e.g., `analytical, data-driven, clear`)
+- **Identity**: Detailed description of who this agent is
+- **Focus Areas**: Primary areas of expertise and focus
+- **Core Principles**: 3-5 guiding principles for the agent
+- **Customization**: Optional specific behaviors or overrides
 
-### 2. Create File References
+### 2. Define Agent Capabilities
 
-All IDE agents must include (per schema):
+**IMPORTANT**:
+
+- If your agent will perform any actions → You MUST create corresponding tasks in `.bmad-core/tasks/`
+- If your agent will create any documents → You MUST create templates in `.bmad-core/templates/` AND include the `create-doc` task
+
+Determine:
+
+- **Custom Commands**: Agent-specific commands beyond the defaults
+- **Required Tasks**: Tasks from `.bmad-core/tasks/` the agent needs
+  - For any action the agent performs, a corresponding task file must exist
+  - Always include `create-doc` if the agent creates any documents
+- **Required Templates**: Templates from `.bmad-core/templates/` the agent uses
+  - For any document the agent can create, a template must exist
+- **Required Checklists**: Checklists the agent references
+- **Required Data**: Data files the agent needs access to
+- **Required Utils**: Utility files the agent uses
+
+### 3. Handle Missing Dependencies
+
+**Protocol for Missing Tasks/Templates:**
+
+1. Check if each required task/template exists
+2. For any missing items:
+   - Create a basic version following the appropriate template
+   - Track what was created in a list
+3. Continue with agent creation
+4. At the end, present a summary of all created items
+
+**Track Created Items:**
+
+```
+Created during agent setup:
+- Tasks:
+  - [ ] task-name-1.md
+  - [ ] task-name-2.md
+- Templates:
+  - [ ] template-name-1.md
+  - [ ] template-name-2.md
+```
+
+### 4. Create Agent File
+
+1. Copy the template from `.bmad-core/templates/agent-tmpl.md`
+2. Replace all placeholders with gathered information:
+
+   - `[AGENT_ID]` → agent id
+   - `[AGENT_NAME]` → agent name
+   - `[AGENT_TITLE]` → agent title
+   - `[AGENT_ROLE_DESCRIPTION]` → role description
+   - `[COMMUNICATION_STYLE]` → communication style
+   - `[AGENT_IDENTITY_DESCRIPTION]` → identity description
+   - `[PRIMARY_FOCUS_AREAS]` → focus areas
+   - `[PRINCIPLE_X]` → core principles
+   - `[OPTIONAL_CUSTOMIZATION]` → customization (or remove if none)
+   - `[DEFAULT_MODE_DESCRIPTION]` → description of default chat mode
+   - `[STARTUP_INSTRUCTIONS]` → what the agent should do on activation
+   - Add custom commands, tasks, templates, etc.
+
+3. Save as `.bmad-core/agents/[agent-id].md`
+
+### 4. Validate Agent
+
+Ensure:
+
+- All placeholders are replaced
+- Dependencies (tasks, templates, etc.) actually exist
+- Commands are properly formatted
+- YAML structure is valid
+
+### 5. Build and Test
+
+1. Run `npm run build:agents` to include in builds
+2. Test agent activation and commands
+3. Verify all dependencies load correctly
+
+### 6. Final Summary
+
+Present to the user:
+
+```
+✅ Agent Created: [agent-name]
+   Location: .bmad-core/agents/[agent-id].md
+
+📝 Dependencies Created:
+   Tasks:
+   - ✅ task-1.md - [brief description]
+   - ✅ task-2.md - [brief description]
+
+   Templates:
+   - ✅ template-1.md - [brief description]
+   - ✅ template-2.md - [brief description]
+
+⚠️  Next Steps:
+   1. Review and customize the created tasks/templates
+   2. Run npm run build:agents
+   3. Test the agent thoroughly
+```
+
+## Template Reference
+
+The agent template structure:
+
+- **activation-instructions**: How the AI should interpret the file
+- **agent**: Basic agent metadata
+- **persona**: Character and behavior definition
+- **startup**: Initial actions on activation

+  name: Data Analyst
-checklists: "bmad-core/checklists/"  # Optional
+  id: data-analyst
-default-template: "bmad-core/templates/{template-name}"  # If agent creates documents
+  title: Data Analysis Specialist
+
+persona:
+  role: Expert in data analysis, visualization, and insights extraction
+  style: analytical, data-driven, clear, methodical

+  focus: data exploration, statistical analysis, visualization, reporting
+
+  core_principles:
+    - Data integrity and accuracy above all
+    - Clear communication of complex findings
+    - Actionable insights over raw numbers
 ```
 
-Additional custom references as needed (e.g., `story-path`, `coding-standards`)
+## Creating Missing Dependencies
 
-### 3. Define Persona (Schema Required Fields)
+When a required task or template doesn't exist:
 
-Create concise persona following schema structure:
+1. **For Missing Tasks**: Create using `.bmad-core/templates/task-template.md`
 
-- **Name**: Character name (e.g., "Alex", "Dana")
+   - Name it descriptively (e.g., `analyze-metrics.md`)
-- **Role**: Professional role title
+   - Define clear steps for the action
-- **Identity**: Extended specialization (20+ chars)
+   - Include any required inputs/outputs
-- **Focus**: Primary objectives (20+ chars)
-- **Style**: Communication approach (20+ chars)
 
-Keep descriptions brief for IDE efficiency!
+2. **For Missing Templates**: Create a basic structure
 
-### 4. Core Principles (Minimum 3 Required)
+   - Name it descriptively (e.g., `metrics-report-template.md`)
+   - Include placeholders for expected content
+   - Add sections relevant to the document type
 
-Must include these based on schema validation:
+3. **Always Track**: Keep a list of everything created to report at the end
 
-1. **Numbered Options Protocol** (REQUIRED): "When presenting multiple options, always use numbered lists for easy selection"
+## Important Reminders
-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
+### Tasks and Templates Requirement
 
-First instruction MUST announce name/role and mention *help (schema requirement):
+- **Every agent action needs a task**: If an agent can "analyze data", there must be an `analyze-data.md` task
+- **Every document type needs a template**: If an agent can create reports, there must be a `report-template.md`
+- **Document creation requires**: Both the template AND the `create-doc` task in dependencies
 
-```markdown
+### Example Dependencies
-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.'
+
+```yaml
+dependencies:
+  tasks:
+    - create-doc # Required if agent creates any documents
+    - analyze-requirements # Custom task for this agent
+    - generate-report # Another custom task
+  templates:
+    - requirements-doc # Template for requirements documents
+    - analysis-report # Template for analysis reports
 ```
 
-Add 2-5 additional startup instructions specific to the agent's role.
+## Notes
 
-### 6. Commands (Minimum 2 Required)
+- Keep agent definitions focused and specific
-
+- Ensure dependencies are minimal and necessary
-Required commands per schema:
+- Test thoroughly before distribution
-
+- Follow existing agent patterns for consistency
-```markdown
+- Remember: No task = agent can't do it, No template = agent can't create it
-- `*help` - Show these available commands as a numbered list offering selection
+==================== END: tasks#create-agent ====================
-- `*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
-

+# 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-dev** - Developer
+- **bmad-pm** - Product Manager
+- **bmad-po** - Product Owner
+- **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

+# How to Release a New Version
+
+## Automated Releases (Recommended)
+
+The easiest way to release new versions is through **automatic semantic releases**. Just commit with the right message format and push - everything else happens automatically!
+
+### Commit Message Format
+
+Use these prefixes to control what type of release happens:
+
+```bash
+fix: resolve CLI argument parsing bug      # → patch release (4.1.0 → 4.1.1)
+feat: add new agent orchestration mode     # → minor release (4.1.0 → 4.2.0)
+feat!: redesign CLI interface              # → major release (4.1.0 → 5.0.0)
+```text
+
+### What Happens Automatically
+
+When you push commits with `fix:` or `feat:`, GitHub Actions will:
+
+1. ✅ Analyze your commit messages
+2. ✅ Bump version in `package.json`
+3. ✅ Generate changelog
+4. ✅ Create git tag
+5. ✅ **Publish to NPM automatically**
+6. ✅ Create GitHub release with notes
+
+### Your Simple Workflow
+
+```bash
+# Make your changes
+git add .
+git commit -m "feat: add team collaboration mode"
+git push
+
+# That's it! Release happens automatically 🎉
+# Users can now run: npx bmad-method (and get the new version)
+```
+
+### Commits That DON'T Trigger Releases
+
+These commit types won't create releases (use them for maintenance):
+
+```bash
+chore: update dependencies     # No release
+docs: fix typo in readme      # No release
+style: format code            # No release
+test: add unit tests          # No release
+```text
+
+### Test Your Setup
+
+```bash
+npm run release:test    # Safe to run locally - tests the config
+```
+
+---
+
+## Manual Release Methods (Exceptions Only)
+
+**⚠️ Only use these methods if you need to bypass the automatic system**
+
+### Quick Manual Version Bump
+
+```bash
+npm run version:patch   # 4.1.0 → 4.1.1 (bug fixes)
+npm run version:minor   # 4.1.0 → 4.2.0 (new features)
+npm run version:major   # 4.1.0 → 5.0.0 (breaking changes)
+
+# Then manually publish:
+npm publish
+git push && git push --tags
+```
+
+### Manual GitHub Actions Trigger
+
+You can also trigger releases manually through GitHub Actions workflow dispatch if needed.
+
+---
+
+## Summary
+
+**For 99% of releases**: Just use `fix:` or `feat:` commit messages and push. Everything else is automatic!
+
+**Manual methods**: Only needed for special cases or if you want to bypass the automated system.
