fix: remove empty tasks directories from Claude Code installer

Previously, the installer created empty tasks/ directories under
.claude/commands/bmad/{module}/ and attempted to copy task files.
Since getTasksFromDir() filters for .md files only and all actual
tasks are .xml files, these directories remained empty.

Tasks are utility files referenced by agents via exec attributes
(e.g., exec="{project-root}/bmad/core/tasks/workflow.xml") and
should remain in the bmad/ directory - they are not slash commands.

Changes:
- Removed tasks directory creation in module setup
- Removed tasks copying logic (15 lines)
- Removed taskCount from console output
- Removed tasks property from return value
- Removed unused getTasksFromBmad and getTasksFromDir imports
- Updated comment to clarify agents-only installation

Verified: No tasks/ directories created in .claude/commands/bmad/
while task files remain accessible in bmad/core/tasks/

+## Tips for Success
+
+1. **Be specific** - Vague problems lead to vague solutions
+2. **Quantify when possible** - Numbers help us prioritize (e.g., "20 customers asked for this" vs "customers want this")
+3. **One idea per submission** - If you have multiple ideas, submit multiple templates
+4. **Success metrics matter** - How will we know this worked?
+5. **Honest sizing** - Better to overestimate than underestimate

+### BMad Core™: Universal Foundation
 
-## How to Contribute
+BMad Core empowers humans and AI agents working together in true partnership across any domain through our **C.O.R.E. Framework** (Collaboration Optimized Reflection Engine):
+
+- **Collaboration**: Human-AI partnership where both contribute unique strengths
+- **Optimized**: The collaborative process refined for maximum effectiveness
+- **Reflection**: Guided thinking that helps discover better solutions and insights
+- **Engine**: The powerful framework that orchestrates specialized agents and workflows
+
+### BMad Method™: Agile AI-Driven Development
+
+The BMad Method is the flagship bmad module for agile AI-driven software development. It emphasizes thorough planning and solid architectural foundations to provide detailed context for developer agents, mirroring real-world agile best practices.
+
+### Core Principles
+
+**Partnership Over Automation** - AI agents act as expert coaches, mentors, and collaborators who amplify human capability rather than replace it.
+
+**Bidirectional Guidance** - Agents guide users through structured workflows while users push agents with advanced prompting. Both sides actively work to extract better information from each other.
+
+**Systems of Workflows** - BMad Core builds comprehensive systems of guided workflows with specialized agent teams for any domain.
+
+**Tool-Agnostic Foundation** - BMad Core remains tool-agnostic, providing stable, extensible groundwork that adapts to any domain.
+
+## What Makes a Good Contribution?
+
+Every contribution should strengthen human-AI collaboration. Ask yourself: **"Does this make humans and AI better together?"**
+
+**✅ Contributions that align:**
+
+- Enhance universal collaboration patterns
+- Improve agent personas and workflows
+- Strengthen planning and context continuity
+- Increase cross-domain accessibility
+- Add domain-specific modules leveraging BMad Core
+
+**❌ What detracts from our mission:**
+
+- Purely automated solutions that sideline humans
+- Tools that don't improve the partnership
+- Complexity that creates barriers to adoption
+- Features that fragment BMad Core's foundation

-## Overview
-
-**BMad Method's Two Key Innovations:**
-
-**1. Agentic Planning:** Dedicated agents (Analyst, PM, Architect) collaborate with you to create detailed, consistent PRDs and Architecture documents. Through advanced prompt engineering and human-in-the-loop refinement, these planning agents produce comprehensive specifications that go far beyond generic AI task generation.
-
-**2. Context-Engineered Development:** The Scrum Master agent then transforms these detailed plans into hyper-detailed development stories that contain everything the Dev agent needs - full context, implementation details, and architectural guidance embedded directly in story files.
-
-This two-phase approach eliminates both **planning inconsistency** and **context loss** - the biggest problems in AI-assisted development. Your Dev agent opens a story file with complete understanding of what to build, how to build it, and why.
-
-**📖 [See the complete workflow in the User Guide](docs/user-guide.md)** - Planning phase, development cycle, and all agent roles
-
-## Quick Navigation
-
-### Understanding the BMad Workflow
-
-**Before diving in, review these critical workflow diagrams that explain how BMad works:**
-
-1. **[Planning Workflow (Web UI)](docs/user-guide.md#the-planning-workflow-web-ui)** - How to create PRD and Architecture documents
-2. **[Core Development Cycle (IDE)](docs/user-guide.md#the-core-development-cycle-ide)** - How SM, Dev, and QA agents collaborate through story files
-
-> ⚠️ **These diagrams explain 90% of BMad Method Agentic Agile flow confusion** - Understanding the PRD+Architecture creation and the SM/Dev/QA workflow and how agents pass notes through story files is essential - and also explains why this is NOT taskmaster or just a simple task runner!

-## Important: Keep Your BMad Installation Updated
-
-**Stay up-to-date effortlessly!** If you already have BMad-Method installed in your project, simply run:
-
-```bash
-npx bmad-method install
-# OR
-git pull
-npm run install:bmad
-```
-
-This will:
-
-- ✅ Automatically detect your existing v4 installation
-- ✅ Update only the files that have changed and add new files
-- ✅ Create `.bak` backup files for any custom modifications you've made
-- ✅ Preserve your project-specific configurations
-
-This makes it easy to benefit from the latest improvements, bug fixes, and new agents without losing your customizations!
-
-## Quick Start
-
-### One Command for Everything (IDE Installation)
-
-**Just run one of these commands:**
-
-```bash
-npx bmad-method install
-# OR if you already have BMad installed:
-git pull
-npm run install:bmad
-```
-
-This single command handles:
-
-- **New installations** - Sets up BMad in your project
-- **Upgrades** - Updates existing installations automatically
-- **Expansion packs** - Installs any expansion packs you've added to package.json
-
-> **That's it!** Whether you're installing for the first time, upgrading, or adding expansion packs - these commands do everything.
+## 🚀 Quick Start
 
 **Prerequisites**: [Node.js](https://nodejs.org) v20+ required
 
-### Fastest Start: Web UI Full Stack Team at your disposal (2 minutes)
-
-1. **Get the bundle**: Save or clone the [full stack team file](dist/teams/team-fullstack.txt) or choose another team
-2. **Create AI agent**: Create a new Gemini Gem or CustomGPT
-3. **Upload & configure**: Upload the file and set instructions: "Your critical operating instructions are attached, do not break character as directed"
-4. **Start Ideating and Planning**: Start chatting! Type `*help` to see available commands or pick an agent like `*analyst` to start right in on creating a brief.
-5. **CRITICAL**: Talk to BMad Orchestrator in the web at ANY TIME (#bmad-orchestrator command) and ask it questions about how this all works!
-6. **When to moved to the IDE**: Once you have your PRD, Architecture, optional UX and Briefs - its time to switch over to the IDE to shard your docs, and start implementing the actual code! See the [User guide](docs/user-guide.md) for more details
-
-### Alternative: Clone and Build
+**One-line install** (thanks Lum!):
 
 ```bash
-git clone https://github.com/bmadcode/bmad-method.git
-npm run install:bmad # build and install all to a destination folder
+git clone --branch v6-alpha --single-branch https://github.com/bmad-code-org/BMAD-METHOD
+cd BMAD-METHOD && npm install
 ```
 
-## 🌟 Beyond Software Development - Expansion Packs
+**Install to your project:**
 
-BMad's natural language framework works in ANY domain. Expansion packs provide specialized AI agents for creative writing, business strategy, health & wellness, education, and more. Also expansion packs can expand the core BMad-Method with specific functionality that is not generic for all cases. [See the Expansion Packs Guide](docs/expansion-packs.md) and learn to create your own!
+```bash
+npm run install:bmad
+```
 
-## Documentation & Resources
+Follow the interactive prompts. **Important**: When asked for a destination, provide the **full path** to your project folder (don't accept the default).
 
-### Essential Guides
+**Essential Reading**: Before using BMad Method, read the **[BMM v6 Workflows Guide](./src/modules/bmm/workflows/README.md)** to understand the four-phase workflow system.

+
+---
+
+## BMad Method (BMM) Four-Phase Workflow
+
+The BMM module follows a comprehensive four-phase methodology. Each phase adapts to your project's scale and complexity.
+
+**[Complete workflow documentation →](./src/modules/bmm/workflows/README.md)**
+
+### Phase 1: Analysis _(Optional)_
+
+**Analyst Agent**:
+
+- `brainstorm-project` - Generate and refine project concepts
+- `research` - Market research, deep research, prompt generation
+- `product-brief` - Document initial product vision
+
+**Game Designer Agent** _(for game projects)_:
+
+- `brainstorm-game` - Game-specific ideation
+- `game-brief` - Game concept documentation
+- `research` - Game market and technical research
+
+---
+
+### Phase 2: Planning _(Required)_
+
+**PM Agent**:
+
+- `plan-project` - Creates scale-adaptive PRD or GDD
+
+The planning workflow adapts to:
+
+- Project complexity (Levels 0-4)
+- Project type (web, mobile, embedded, game, etc.)
+- New vs. existing codebase
+- Team structure
+
+**Game Designer Agent** _(for game projects)_:
+
+- `plan-game` - Uses same workflow but optimized for Game Design Documents
+
+---
+
+### Phase 3: Solutioning _(Levels 3-4)_
+
+**Architect / Game Architect Agent**:
+
+- `architecture` - Creates adaptive architecture based on project type
+  - No more document sharding
+  - Adapts sections to your project (web, mobile, embedded, game, etc.)
+  - Beyond basic concerns (complex testing, DevOps, security), specialized agents assist _(coming soon)_
+
+- `tech-spec` - Generates Epic Tech Specs
+  - Pulls all technical information from planning
+  - Includes web research as needed
+  - One tech spec per epic
+  - Enhances SM's ability to prepare stories
+
+**Note**: The PO can validate epics/stories with checklists, though the Architect maintains them during solutioning.
+
+---
+
+### Phase 4: Implementation _(Iterative)_
+
+**Scrum Master (SM) Agent**:
+
+Before development starts, the SM prepares each story:
+
+1. `create-story` - Generates story from tech spec and context
+2. `story-context` - **🎉 NEW!** Game-changing contextual preparation
+   - Real-time context gathering for the specific story
+   - No more generic file lists
+   - Supercharged, specialized development context
+
+**Dev Agent**:
+
+Enhanced developer workflow:
+
+- Development task execution
+- Senior dev agent review (replaces separate QA agent)
+- Pulls rich context from story-context workflow
+
+**🎊 Many more exciting changes throughout BMM for you to discover during alpha!**
+
+---
+
+## Detailed Installation Guide
+
+### Prerequisites
+
+- **Node.js v20+** ([Download](https://nodejs.org))
+- **Git** (for cloning)
+
+### Step-by-Step Installation
+
+#### Step 1: Clone the Repository
+
+**Option A** - One-line install:
+
+```bash
+git clone --branch v6-alpha --single-branch https://github.com/bmad-code-org/BMAD-METHOD
+```
+
+**Option B** - Standard clone then checkout:
+
+```bash
+# Clone via your preferred method:
+gh repo clone bmad-code-org/BMAD-METHOD
+# OR
+git clone https://github.com/bmad-code-org/BMAD-METHOD.git
+# OR
+git clone git@github.com:bmad-code-org/BMAD-METHOD.git
+
+# Change to the directory
+cd BMAD-METHOD
+
+# Checkout alpha branch
+git checkout v6-alpha
+
+# Verify branch
+git status
+# Should show: "On branch v6-alpha. Your branch is up to date with 'origin/v6-alpha'."
+```
+
+#### Step 2: Install Dependencies
+
+```bash
+npm install
+```
+
+Verify `node_modules` folder exists at project root.
+
+#### Step 3: Install to Your Project
+
+```bash
+npm run install:bmad
+```
+
+**Follow the interactive prompts:**
+
+1. **Destination Path**: Enter the **full path** to your project folder
+   - Don't accept the default
+   - For new projects, confirm when prompted to create the directory
+2. **Module Selection**:
+   - **Core** (always installed)
+   - **BMM** - BMad Method for software development (default)
+   - **BMB** - BMad Builder for creating agents/workflows
+   - **CIS** - Creative Intelligence Suite
+
+3. **Configuration**:
+   - Your name
+   - Preferred communication language
+   - Module-specific options
+
+#### Step 4: Understanding the Installation
+
+All modules install to a single `bmad/` folder in your project:
+
+```
+your-project/
+└── bmad/
+    ├── core/         # Core framework (always present)
+    ├── bmm/          # BMad Method (if selected)
+    ├── bmb/          # BMad Builder (if selected)
+    ├── cis/          # Creative Intelligence Suite (shared resources)
+    └── _cfg/         # Your customizations
+        └── agents/   # Agent sidecar customization files
+```
+
+**Note**: You may see folders for modules you didn't explicitly select. This is intentional - modules share minimal required resources. For example, BMM uses CIS brainstorming workflows, so `bmad/cis/` appears with shared files even if you only selected BMM.

-# Architect Solution Validation Checklist
-
-This checklist serves as a comprehensive framework for the Architect to validate the technical design and architecture before development execution. The Architect should systematically work through each item, ensuring the architecture is robust, scalable, secure, and aligned with the product requirements.
-
-[[LLM: INITIALIZATION INSTRUCTIONS - REQUIRED ARTIFACTS
-
-Before proceeding with this checklist, ensure you have access to:
-
-1. architecture.md - The primary architecture document (check docs/architecture.md)
-2. prd.md - Product Requirements Document for requirements alignment (check docs/prd.md)
-3. frontend-architecture.md or fe-architecture.md - If this is a UI project (check docs/frontend-architecture.md)
-4. Any system diagrams referenced in the architecture
-5. API documentation if available
-6. Technology stack details and version specifications
-
-IMPORTANT: If any required documents are missing or inaccessible, immediately ask the user for their location or content before proceeding.
-
-PROJECT TYPE DETECTION:
-First, determine the project type by checking:
-
-- Does the architecture include a frontend/UI component?
-- Is there a frontend-architecture.md document?
-- Does the PRD mention user interfaces or frontend requirements?
-
-If this is a backend-only or service-only project:
-
-- Skip sections marked with [[FRONTEND ONLY]]
-- Focus extra attention on API design, service architecture, and integration patterns
-- Note in your final report that frontend sections were skipped due to project type

-# Change Navigation Checklist
-
-**Purpose:** To systematically guide the selected Agent and user through the analysis and planning required when a significant change (pivot, tech issue, missing requirement, failed story) is identified during the BMad workflow.
-
-**Instructions:** Review each item with the user. Mark `[x]` for completed/confirmed, `[N/A]` if not applicable, or add notes for discussion points.
-
-[[LLM: INITIALIZATION INSTRUCTIONS - CHANGE NAVIGATION
-
-Changes during development are inevitable, but how we handle them determines project success or failure.
-
-Before proceeding, understand:
-
-1. This checklist is for SIGNIFICANT changes that affect the project direction
-2. Minor adjustments within a story don't require this process
-3. The goal is to minimize wasted work while adapting to new realities
-4. User buy-in is critical - they must understand and approve changes
-
-Required context:
-
-- The triggering story or issue
-- Current project state (completed stories, current epic)
-- Access to PRD, architecture, and other key documents
-- Understanding of remaining work planned
-
-APPROACH:
-This is an interactive process with the user. Work through each section together, discussing implications and options. The user makes final decisions, but provide expert guidance on technical feasibility and impact.
-
-REMEMBER: Changes are opportunities to improve, not failures. Handle them professionally and constructively.]]
-
----
-
-## 1. Understand the Trigger & Context
-
-[[LLM: Start by fully understanding what went wrong and why. Don't jump to solutions yet. Ask probing questions:
-
-- What exactly happened that triggered this review?
-- Is this a one-time issue or symptomatic of a larger problem?
-- Could this have been anticipated earlier?
-- What assumptions were incorrect?
-
-Be specific and factual, not blame-oriented.]]
-
-- [ ] **Identify Triggering Story:** Clearly identify the story (or stories) that revealed the issue.
-- [ ] **Define the Issue:** Articulate the core problem precisely.
-  - [ ] Is it a technical limitation/dead-end?
-  - [ ] Is it a newly discovered requirement?
-  - [ ] Is it a fundamental misunderstanding of existing requirements?
-  - [ ] Is it a necessary pivot based on feedback or new information?
-  - [ ] Is it a failed/abandoned story needing a new approach?
-- [ ] **Assess Initial Impact:** Describe the immediate observed consequences (e.g., blocked progress, incorrect functionality, non-viable tech).
-- [ ] **Gather Evidence:** Note any specific logs, error messages, user feedback, or analysis that supports the issue definition.
-
-## 2. Epic Impact Assessment
-
-[[LLM: Changes ripple through the project structure. Systematically evaluate:
-
-1. Can we salvage the current epic with modifications?
-2. Do future epics still make sense given this change?
-3. Are we creating or eliminating dependencies?
-4. Does the epic sequence need reordering?
-
-Think about both immediate and downstream effects.]]
-
-- [ ] **Analyze Current Epic:**
-  - [ ] Can the current epic containing the trigger story still be completed?
-  - [ ] Does the current epic need modification (story changes, additions, removals)?
-  - [ ] Should the current epic be abandoned or fundamentally redefined?
-- [ ] **Analyze Future Epics:**
-  - [ ] Review all remaining planned epics.
-  - [ ] Does the issue require changes to planned stories in future epics?
-  - [ ] Does the issue invalidate any future epics?
-  - [ ] Does the issue necessitate the creation of entirely new epics?
-  - [ ] Should the order/priority of future epics be changed?
-- [ ] **Summarize Epic Impact:** Briefly document the overall effect on the project's epic structure and flow.
-
-## 3. Artifact Conflict & Impact Analysis
-
-[[LLM: Documentation drives development in BMad. Check each artifact:
-
-1. Does this change invalidate documented decisions?
-2. Are architectural assumptions still valid?
-3. Do user flows need rethinking?
-4. Are technical constraints different than documented?
-
-Be thorough - missed conflicts cause future problems.]]
-
-- [ ] **Review PRD:**
-  - [ ] Does the issue conflict with the core goals or requirements stated in the PRD?
-  - [ ] Does the PRD need clarification or updates based on the new understanding?
-- [ ] **Review Architecture Document:**
-  - [ ] Does the issue conflict with the documented architecture (components, patterns, tech choices)?
-  - [ ] Are specific components/diagrams/sections impacted?
-  - [ ] Does the technology list need updating?
-  - [ ] Do data models or schemas need revision?
-  - [ ] Are external API integrations affected?
-- [ ] **Review Frontend Spec (if applicable):**
-  - [ ] Does the issue conflict with the FE architecture, component library choice, or UI/UX design?
-  - [ ] Are specific FE components or user flows impacted?
-- [ ] **Review Other Artifacts (if applicable):**
-  - [ ] Consider impact on deployment scripts, IaC, monitoring setup, etc.
-- [ ] **Summarize Artifact Impact:** List all artifacts requiring updates and the nature of the changes needed.
-
-## 4. Path Forward Evaluation
-
-[[LLM: Present options clearly with pros/cons. For each path:
-
-1. What's the effort required?
-2. What work gets thrown away?
-3. What risks are we taking?
-4. How does this affect timeline?
-5. Is this sustainable long-term?
-
-Be honest about trade-offs. There's rarely a perfect solution.]]
-
-- [ ] **Option 1: Direct Adjustment / Integration:**
-  - [ ] Can the issue be addressed by modifying/adding future stories within the existing plan?
-  - [ ] Define the scope and nature of these adjustments.
-  - [ ] Assess feasibility, effort, and risks of this path.
-- [ ] **Option 2: Potential Rollback:**
-  - [ ] Would reverting completed stories significantly simplify addressing the issue?
-  - [ ] Identify specific stories/commits to consider for rollback.
-  - [ ] Assess the effort required for rollback.
-  - [ ] Assess the impact of rollback (lost work, data implications).
-  - [ ] Compare the net benefit/cost vs. Direct Adjustment.
-- [ ] **Option 3: PRD MVP Review & Potential Re-scoping:**
-  - [ ] Is the original PRD MVP still achievable given the issue and constraints?
-  - [ ] Does the MVP scope need reduction (removing features/epics)?
-  - [ ] Do the core MVP goals need modification?
-  - [ ] Are alternative approaches needed to meet the original MVP intent?
-  - [ ] **Extreme Case:** Does the issue necessitate a fundamental replan or potentially a new PRD V2 (to be handled by PM)?
-- [ ] **Select Recommended Path:** Based on the evaluation, agree on the most viable path forward.
-
-## 5. Sprint Change Proposal Components
-
-[[LLM: The proposal must be actionable and clear. Ensure:
-
-1. The issue is explained in plain language
-2. Impacts are quantified where possible
-3. The recommended path has clear rationale
-4. Next steps are specific and assigned
-5. Success criteria for the change are defined
-
-This proposal guides all subsequent work.]]
-
-(Ensure all agreed-upon points from previous sections are captured in the proposal)
-
-- [ ] **Identified Issue Summary:** Clear, concise problem statement.
-- [ ] **Epic Impact Summary:** How epics are affected.
-- [ ] **Artifact Adjustment Needs:** List of documents to change.
-- [ ] **Recommended Path Forward:** Chosen solution with rationale.
-- [ ] **PRD MVP Impact:** Changes to scope/goals (if any).
-- [ ] **High-Level Action Plan:** Next steps for stories/updates.
-- [ ] **Agent Handoff Plan:** Identify roles needed (PM, Arch, Design Arch, PO).
-
-## 6. Final Review & Handoff
-
-[[LLM: Changes require coordination. Before concluding:
-
-1. Is the user fully aligned with the plan?
-2. Do all stakeholders understand the impacts?
-3. Are handoffs to other agents clear?
-4. Is there a rollback plan if the change fails?
-5. How will we validate the change worked?
-
-Get explicit approval - implicit agreement causes problems.
-
-FINAL REPORT:
-After completing the checklist, provide a concise summary:
-
-- What changed and why
-- What we're doing about it
-- Who needs to do what
-- When we'll know if it worked
-
-Keep it action-oriented and forward-looking.]]
-
-- [ ] **Review Checklist:** Confirm all relevant items were discussed.
-- [ ] **Review Sprint Change Proposal:** Ensure it accurately reflects the discussion and decisions.
-- [ ] **User Approval:** Obtain explicit user approval for the proposal.
-- [ ] **Confirm Next Steps:** Reiterate the handoff plan and the next actions to be taken by specific agents.

-# Story Draft Checklist
-
-The Scrum Master should use this checklist to validate that each story contains sufficient context for a developer agent to implement it successfully, while assuming the dev agent has reasonable capabilities to figure things out.
-
-[[LLM: INITIALIZATION INSTRUCTIONS - STORY DRAFT VALIDATION
-
-Before proceeding with this checklist, ensure you have access to:
-
-1. The story document being validated (usually in docs/stories/ or provided directly)
-2. The parent epic context
-3. Any referenced architecture or design documents
-4. Previous related stories if this builds on prior work
-
-IMPORTANT: This checklist validates individual stories BEFORE implementation begins.
-
-VALIDATION PRINCIPLES:
-
-1. Clarity - A developer should understand WHAT to build
-2. Context - WHY this is being built and how it fits
-3. Guidance - Key technical decisions and patterns to follow
-4. Testability - How to verify the implementation works
-5. Self-Contained - Most info needed is in the story itself
-
-REMEMBER: We assume competent developer agents who can:
-
-- Research documentation and codebases
-- Make reasonable technical decisions
-- Follow established patterns
-- Ask for clarification when truly stuck
-
-We're checking for SUFFICIENT guidance, not exhaustive detail.]]
-
-## 1. GOAL & CONTEXT CLARITY
-
-[[LLM: Without clear goals, developers build the wrong thing. Verify:
-
-1. The story states WHAT functionality to implement
-2. The business value or user benefit is clear
-3. How this fits into the larger epic/product is explained
-4. Dependencies are explicit ("requires Story X to be complete")
-5. Success looks like something specific, not vague]]
-
-- [ ] Story goal/purpose is clearly stated
-- [ ] Relationship to epic goals is evident
-- [ ] How the story fits into overall system flow is explained
-- [ ] Dependencies on previous stories are identified (if applicable)
-- [ ] Business context and value are clear
-
-## 2. TECHNICAL IMPLEMENTATION GUIDANCE
-
-[[LLM: Developers need enough technical context to start coding. Check:
-
-1. Key files/components to create or modify are mentioned
-2. Technology choices are specified where non-obvious
-3. Integration points with existing code are identified
-4. Data models or API contracts are defined or referenced
-5. Non-standard patterns or exceptions are called out
-
-Note: We don't need every file listed - just the important ones.]]
-
-- [ ] Key files to create/modify are identified (not necessarily exhaustive)
-- [ ] Technologies specifically needed for this story are mentioned
-- [ ] Critical APIs or interfaces are sufficiently described
-- [ ] Necessary data models or structures are referenced
-- [ ] Required environment variables are listed (if applicable)
-- [ ] Any exceptions to standard coding patterns are noted
-
-## 3. REFERENCE EFFECTIVENESS
-
-[[LLM: References should help, not create a treasure hunt. Ensure:
-
-1. References point to specific sections, not whole documents
-2. The relevance of each reference is explained
-3. Critical information is summarized in the story
-4. References are accessible (not broken links)
-5. Previous story context is summarized if needed]]
-
-- [ ] References to external documents point to specific relevant sections
-- [ ] Critical information from previous stories is summarized (not just referenced)
-- [ ] Context is provided for why references are relevant
-- [ ] References use consistent format (e.g., `docs/filename.md#section`)
-
-## 4. SELF-CONTAINMENT ASSESSMENT
-
-[[LLM: Stories should be mostly self-contained to avoid context switching. Verify:
-
-1. Core requirements are in the story, not just in references
-2. Domain terms are explained or obvious from context
-3. Assumptions are stated explicitly
-4. Edge cases are mentioned (even if deferred)
-5. The story could be understood without reading 10 other documents]]
-
-- [ ] Core information needed is included (not overly reliant on external docs)
-- [ ] Implicit assumptions are made explicit
-- [ ] Domain-specific terms or concepts are explained
-- [ ] Edge cases or error scenarios are addressed
-
-## 5. TESTING GUIDANCE
-
-[[LLM: Testing ensures the implementation actually works. Check:
-
-1. Test approach is specified (unit, integration, e2e)
-2. Key test scenarios are listed
-3. Success criteria are measurable
-4. Special test considerations are noted
-5. Acceptance criteria in the story are testable]]
-
-- [ ] Required testing approach is outlined
-- [ ] Key test scenarios are identified
-- [ ] Success criteria are defined
-- [ ] Special testing considerations are noted (if applicable)
-
-## VALIDATION RESULT
-
-[[LLM: FINAL STORY VALIDATION REPORT
-
-Generate a concise validation report:
-
-1. Quick Summary
-
-   - Story readiness: READY / NEEDS REVISION / BLOCKED
-   - Clarity score (1-10)
-   - Major gaps identified
-
-2. Fill in the validation table with:
-
-   - PASS: Requirements clearly met
-   - PARTIAL: Some gaps but workable
-   - FAIL: Critical information missing
-
-3. Specific Issues (if any)
-
-   - List concrete problems to fix
-   - Suggest specific improvements
-   - Identify any blocking dependencies
-
-4. Developer Perspective
-   - Could YOU implement this story as written?
-   - What questions would you have?
-   - What might cause delays or rework?
-
-Be pragmatic - perfect documentation doesn't exist, but it must be enough to provide the extreme context a dev agent needs to get the work down and not create a mess.]]

-# 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
-
-### When to Use BMad
-
-- **New Projects (Greenfield)**: Complete end-to-end development
-- **Existing Projects (Brownfield)**: Feature additions and enhancements
-- **Team Collaboration**: Multiple roles working together
-- **Quality Assurance**: Structured testing and validation
-- **Documentation**: Professional PRDs, architecture docs, user stories
-
-## How BMad Works
-
-### The Core Method
-
-BMad transforms you into a "Vibe CEO" - directing a team of specialized AI agents through structured workflows. Here's how:
-
-1. **You Direct, AI Executes**: You provide vision and decisions; agents handle implementation details
-2. **Specialized Agents**: Each agent masters one role (PM, Developer, Architect, etc.)
-3. **Structured Workflows**: Proven patterns guide you from idea to deployed code
-4. **Clean Handoffs**: Fresh context windows ensure agents stay focused and effective
-
-### The Two-Phase Approach
-
-#### Phase 1: Planning (Web UI - Cost Effective)
-
-- Use large context windows (Gemini's 1M tokens)
-- Generate comprehensive documents (PRD, Architecture)
-- Leverage multiple agents for brainstorming
-- Create once, use throughout development
-
-#### Phase 2: Development (IDE - Implementation)
-
-- Shard documents into manageable pieces
-- Execute focused SM → Dev cycles
-- One story at a time, sequential progress
-- Real-time file operations and testing
-
-### The Development Loop
-
-```text
-1. SM Agent (New Chat) → Creates next story from sharded docs
-2. You → Review and approve story
-3. Dev Agent (New Chat) → Implements approved story
-4. QA Agent (New Chat) → Reviews and refactors code
-5. You → Verify completion
-6. Repeat until epic complete
-```
-
-### Why This Works
-
-- **Context Optimization**: Clean chats = better AI performance
-- **Role Clarity**: Agents don't context-switch = higher quality
-- **Incremental Progress**: Small stories = manageable complexity
-- **Human Oversight**: You validate each step = quality control
-- **Document-Driven**: Specs guide everything = consistency
-
-## Getting Started
-
-### Quick Start Options
-
-#### Option 1: Web UI
-
-**Best for**: ChatGPT, Claude, Gemini users who want to start immediately
-
-1. Navigate to `dist/teams/`
-2. Copy `team-fullstack.txt` content
-3. Create new Gemini Gem or CustomGPT
-4. Upload file with instructions: "Your critical operating instructions are attached, do not break character as directed"
-5. Type `/help` to see available commands
-
-#### Option 2: IDE Integration
-
-**Best for**: Cursor, Claude Code, Windsurf, Trae, Cline, Roo Code, Github Copilot users
-
-```bash
-# Interactive installation (recommended)
-npx bmad-method install
-```
-
-**Installation Steps**:
-
-- Choose "Complete installation"
-- Select your IDE from supported options:
-  - **Cursor**: Native AI integration
-  - **Claude Code**: Anthropic's official IDE
-  - **Windsurf**: Built-in AI capabilities
-  - **Trae**: Built-in AI capabilities
-  - **Cline**: VS Code extension with AI features
-  - **Roo Code**: Web-based IDE with agent support
-  - **GitHub Copilot**: VS Code extension with AI peer programming assistant
-
-**Note for VS Code Users**: BMad-Method assumes when you mention "VS Code" that you're using it with an AI-powered extension like GitHub Copilot, Cline, or Roo. Standard VS Code without AI capabilities cannot run BMad agents. The installer includes built-in support for Cline and Roo.
-
-**Verify Installation**:
-
-- `.bmad-core/` folder created with all agents
-- IDE-specific integration files created
-- All agent commands/rules/modes available
-
-**Remember**: At its core, BMad-Method is about mastering and harnessing prompt engineering. Any IDE with AI agent support can use BMad - the framework provides the structured prompts and workflows that make AI development effective
-
-### Environment Selection Guide
-
-**Use Web UI for**:
-
-- Initial planning and documentation (PRD, architecture)
-- Cost-effective document creation (especially with Gemini)
-- Brainstorming and analysis phases
-- Multi-agent consultation and planning
-
-**Use IDE for**:
-
-- Active development and coding
-- File operations and project integration
-- Document sharding and story management
-- 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.
-
-### IDE-Only Workflow Considerations
-
-**Can you do everything in IDE?** Yes, but understand the tradeoffs:
-
-**Pros of IDE-Only**:
-
-- Single environment workflow
-- Direct file operations from start
-- No copy/paste between environments
-- Immediate project integration
-
-**Cons of IDE-Only**:
-
-- Higher token costs for large document creation
-- Smaller context windows (varies by IDE/model)
-- May hit limits during planning phases
-- Less cost-effective for brainstorming
-
-**Using Web Agents in IDE**:
-
-- **NOT RECOMMENDED**: Web agents (PM, Architect) have rich dependencies designed for large contexts
-- **Why it matters**: Dev agents are kept lean to maximize coding context
-- **The principle**: "Dev agents code, planning agents plan" - mixing breaks this optimization
-
-**About bmad-master and bmad-orchestrator**:
-
-- **bmad-master**: CAN do any task without switching agents, BUT...
-- **Still use specialized agents for planning**: PM, Architect, and UX Expert have tuned personas that produce better results
-- **Why specialization matters**: Each agent's personality and focus creates higher quality outputs
-- **If using bmad-master/orchestrator**: Fine for planning phases, but...
-
-**CRITICAL RULE for Development**:
-
-- **ALWAYS use SM agent for story creation** - Never use bmad-master or bmad-orchestrator
-- **ALWAYS use Dev agent for implementation** - Never use bmad-master or bmad-orchestrator
-- **Why this matters**: SM and Dev agents are specifically optimized for the development workflow
-- **No exceptions**: Even if using bmad-master for everything else, switch to SM → Dev for implementation
-
-**Best Practice for IDE-Only**:
-
-1. Use PM/Architect/UX agents for planning (better than bmad-master)
-2. Create documents directly in project
-3. Shard immediately after creation
-4. **MUST switch to SM agent** for story creation
-5. **MUST switch to Dev agent** for implementation
-6. Keep planning and coding in separate chat sessions
-
-## Core Configuration (core-config.yaml)
-
-**New in V4**: The `bmad-core/core-config.yaml` file is a critical innovation that enables BMad to work seamlessly with any project structure, providing maximum flexibility and backwards compatibility.
-
-### What is core-config.yaml?
-
-This configuration file acts as a map for BMad agents, telling them exactly where to find your project documents and how they're structured. It enables:
-
-- **Version Flexibility**: Work with V3, V4, or custom document structures
-- **Custom Locations**: Define where your documents and shards live
-- **Developer Context**: Specify which files the dev agent should always load
-- **Debug Support**: Built-in logging for troubleshooting
-
-### Key Configuration Areas
-
-#### PRD Configuration
-
-- **prdVersion**: Tells agents if PRD follows v3 or v4 conventions
-- **prdSharded**: Whether epics are embedded (false) or in separate files (true)
-- **prdShardedLocation**: Where to find sharded epic files
-- **epicFilePattern**: Pattern for epic filenames (e.g., `epic-{n}*.md`)
-
-#### Architecture Configuration
-
-- **architectureVersion**: v3 (monolithic) or v4 (sharded)
-- **architectureSharded**: Whether architecture is split into components
-- **architectureShardedLocation**: Where sharded architecture files live
-
-#### Developer Files
-
-- **devLoadAlwaysFiles**: List of files the dev agent loads for every task
-- **devDebugLog**: Where dev agent logs repeated failures
-- **agentCoreDump**: Export location for chat conversations
-
-### Why It Matters
-
-1. **No Forced Migrations**: Keep your existing document structure
-2. **Gradual Adoption**: Start with V3 and migrate to V4 at your pace
-3. **Custom Workflows**: Configure BMad to match your team's process
-4. **Intelligent Agents**: Agents automatically adapt to your configuration
-
-### Common Configurations
-
-**Legacy V3 Project**:
-
-```yaml
-prdVersion: v3
-prdSharded: false
-architectureVersion: v3
-architectureSharded: false
-```
-
-**V4 Optimized Project**:
-
-```yaml
-prdVersion: v4
-prdSharded: true
-prdShardedLocation: docs/prd
-architectureVersion: v4
-architectureSharded: true
-architectureShardedLocation: docs/architecture
-```
-
-## 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.yaml` (comprehensive bundle), `team-fullstack.yaml` (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 assets 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/bmad-doc-template.md`): Defines markup language for variable substitution and AI processing directives from yaml templates
-2. **Document Creation** (`tasks/create-doc.md`): Orchestrates template selection and user interaction to transform yaml spec to final markdown output
-3. **Advanced Elicitation** (`tasks/advanced-elicitation.md`): Provides interactive refinement through structured brainstorming
-
-### 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 - Especially Gemini!)
-
-**Ideal for cost efficiency with Gemini's massive context:**
-
-**For Brownfield Projects - Start Here!**:
-
-1. **Upload entire project to Gemini Web** (GitHub URL, files, or zip)
-2. **Document existing system**: `/analyst` → `*document-project`
-3. **Creates comprehensive docs** from entire codebase analysis
-
-**For All Projects**:
-
-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** (CRITICAL STEP):
-   - Documents created by PM/Architect (in Web or IDE) MUST be sharded for development
-   - Two methods to shard:
-     a) **Manual**: Drag `shard-doc` task + document file into chat
-     b) **Agent**: Ask `@bmad-master` or `@po` to shard documents
-   - Shards `docs/prd.md` → `docs/prd/` folder
-   - Shards `docs/architecture.md` → `docs/architecture/` folder
-   - **WARNING**: Do NOT shard in Web UI - copying many small files is painful!
-
-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
-
-1. **Development Cycle** (Sequential, one story at a time):
-
-   **CRITICAL CONTEXT MANAGEMENT**:
-   - **Context windows matter!** Always use fresh, clean context windows
-   - **Model selection matters!** Use most powerful thinking model for SM story creation
-   - **ALWAYS start new chat between SM, Dev, and QA work**
-
-   **Step 1 - Story Creation**:
-   - **NEW CLEAN CHAT** → Select powerful model → `@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 CLEAN CHAT** → `@dev`
-   - Agent asks which story to implement
-   - Include story file content to save dev agent lookup time
-   - Dev follows tasks/subtasks, marking completion
-   - Dev maintains File List of all changes
-   - Dev marks story as "Review" when complete with all tests passing
-
-   **Step 3 - Senior QA Review**:
-   - **NEW CLEAN CHAT** → `@qa` → execute review-story task
-   - QA performs senior developer code review
-   - QA can refactor and improve code directly
-   - QA appends results to story's QA Results section
-   - If approved: Status → "Done"
-   - If changes needed: Status stays "Review" with unchecked items for dev
-
-   **Step 4 - Repeat**: Continue SM → Dev → QA 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 (Existing Projects)
-
-**Key Concept**: Brownfield development requires comprehensive documentation of your existing project for AI agents to understand context, patterns, and constraints.
-
-**Complete Brownfield Workflow Options**:
-
-**Option 1: PRD-First (Recommended for Large Codebases/Monorepos)**:
-
-1. **Upload project to Gemini Web** (GitHub URL, files, or zip)
-2. **Create PRD first**: `@pm` → `*create-doc brownfield-prd`
-3. **Focused documentation**: `@analyst` → `*document-project`
-   - Analyst asks for focus if no PRD provided
-   - Choose "single document" format for Web UI
-   - Uses PRD to document ONLY relevant areas
-   - Creates one comprehensive markdown file
-   - Avoids bloating docs with unused code
-
-**Option 2: Document-First (Good for Smaller Projects)**:
-
-1. **Upload project to Gemini Web**
-2. **Document everything**: `@analyst` → `*document-project`
-3. **Then create PRD**: `@pm` → `*create-doc brownfield-prd`
-   - More thorough but can create excessive documentation
-
-4. **Requirements Gathering**:
-   - **Brownfield PRD**: Use PM agent with `brownfield-prd-tmpl`
-   - **Analyzes**: Existing system, constraints, integration points
-   - **Defines**: Enhancement scope, compatibility requirements, risk assessment
-   - **Creates**: Epic and story structure for changes
-
-5. **Architecture Planning**:
-   - **Brownfield Architecture**: Use Architect agent with `brownfield-architecture-tmpl`
-   - **Integration Strategy**: How new features integrate with existing system
-   - **Migration Planning**: Gradual rollout and backwards compatibility
-   - **Risk Mitigation**: Addressing potential breaking changes
-
-**Brownfield-Specific Resources**:
-
-**Templates**:
-
-- `brownfield-prd-tmpl.md`: Comprehensive enhancement planning with existing system analysis
-- `brownfield-architecture-tmpl.md`: Integration-focused architecture for existing systems
-
-**Tasks**:
-
-- `document-project`: Generates comprehensive documentation from existing codebase
-- `brownfield-create-epic`: Creates single epic for focused enhancements (when full PRD is overkill)
-- `brownfield-create-story`: Creates individual story for small, isolated changes
-
-**When to Use Each Approach**:
-
-**Full Brownfield Workflow** (Recommended for):
-
-- Major feature additions
-- System modernization
-- Complex integrations
-- Multiple related changes
-
-**Quick Epic/Story Creation** (Use when):
-
-- Single, focused enhancement
-- Isolated bug fixes
-- Small feature additions
-- Well-documented existing system
-
-**Critical Success Factors**:
-
-1. **Documentation First**: Always run `document-project` if docs are outdated/missing
-2. **Context Matters**: Provide agents access to relevant code sections
-3. **Integration Focus**: Emphasize compatibility and non-breaking changes
-4. **Incremental Approach**: Plan for gradual rollout and testing
-
-**For detailed guide**: See `docs/working-in-the-brownfield.md`
-
-## 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

-- Support iterative refinement through multiple analytical perspectives
-- Usable during template-driven document creation or any chat conversation
-
-## Usage Scenarios
-
-### Scenario 1: Template Document Creation
-
-After outputting a section during document creation:
-
-1. **Section Review**: Ask user to review the drafted section
-2. **Offer Elicitation**: Present 9 carefully selected elicitation methods
-3. **Simple Selection**: User types a number (0-8) to engage method, or 9 to proceed
-4. **Execute & Loop**: Apply selected method, then re-offer choices until user proceeds
-
-### Scenario 2: General Chat Elicitation
-
-User can request advanced elicitation on any agent output:
-
-- User says "do advanced elicitation" or similar
-- Agent selects 9 relevant methods for the context
-- Same simple 0-9 selection process
-
-## Task Instructions
-
-### 1. Intelligent Method Selection
-
-**Context Analysis**: Before presenting options, analyze:
-
-- **Content Type**: Technical specs, user stories, architecture, requirements, etc.
-- **Complexity Level**: Simple, moderate, or complex content
-- **Stakeholder Needs**: Who will use this information
-- **Risk Level**: High-impact decisions vs routine items
-- **Creative Potential**: Opportunities for innovation or alternatives
-
-**Method Selection Strategy**:
-
-1. **Always Include Core Methods** (choose 3-4):
-   - Expand or Contract for Audience
-   - Critique and Refine
-   - Identify Potential Risks
-   - Assess Alignment with Goals
-
-2. **Context-Specific Methods** (choose 4-5):
-   - **Technical Content**: Tree of Thoughts, ReWOO, Meta-Prompting
-   - **User-Facing Content**: Agile Team Perspective, Stakeholder Roundtable
-   - **Creative Content**: Innovation Tournament, Escape Room Challenge
-   - **Strategic Content**: Red Team vs Blue Team, Hindsight Reflection
-
-3. **Always Include**: "Proceed / No Further Actions" as option 9
-
-### 2. Section Context and Review
-
-When invoked after outputting a section:
-
-1. **Provide Context Summary**: Give a brief 1-2 sentence summary of what the user should look for in the section just presented
-
-2. **Explain Visual Elements**: If the section contains diagrams, explain them briefly before offering elicitation options
-
-3. **Clarify Scope Options**: If the section contains multiple distinct items, inform the user they can apply elicitation actions to:
-   - The entire section as a whole
-   - Individual items within the section (specify which item when selecting an action)
-
-### 3. Present Elicitation Options
-
-**Review Request Process:**
-
-- Ask the user to review the drafted section
-- In the SAME message, inform them they can suggest direct changes OR select an elicitation method
-- Present 9 intelligently selected methods (0-8) plus "Proceed" (9)
-- Keep descriptions short - just the method name
-- Await simple numeric selection
-
-**Action List Presentation Format:**
-
-```text
-**Advanced Elicitation Options**
-Choose a number (0-8) or 9 to proceed:
-
-0. [Method Name]
-1. [Method Name]
-2. [Method Name]
-3. [Method Name]
-4. [Method Name]
-5. [Method Name]
-6. [Method Name]
-7. [Method Name]
-8. [Method Name]
-9. Proceed / No Further Actions
-```
-
-**Response Handling:**
-
-- **Numbers 0-8**: Execute the selected method, then re-offer the choice
-- **Number 9**: Proceed to next section or continue conversation
-- **Direct Feedback**: Apply user's suggested changes and continue
-
-### 4. Method Execution Framework
-
-**Execution Process:**
-
-1. **Retrieve Method**: Access the specific elicitation method from the elicitation-methods data file
-2. **Apply Context**: Execute the method from your current role's perspective
-3. **Provide Results**: Deliver insights, critiques, or alternatives relevant to the content
-4. **Re-offer Choice**: Present the same 9 options again until user selects 9 or gives direct feedback
-
-**Execution Guidelines:**
-
-- **Be Concise**: Focus on actionable insights, not lengthy explanations
-- **Stay Relevant**: Tie all elicitation back to the specific content being analyzed
-- **Identify Personas**: For multi-persona methods, clearly identify which viewpoint is speaking
-- **Maintain Flow**: Keep the process moving efficiently

-# Correct Course Task
-
-## Purpose
-
-- Guide a structured response to a change trigger using the `{root}/checklists/change-checklist`.
-- Analyze the impacts of the change on epics, project artifacts, and the MVP, guided by the checklist's structure.
-- Explore potential solutions (e.g., adjust scope, rollback elements, re-scope features) as prompted by the checklist.
-- Draft specific, actionable proposed updates to any affected project artifacts (e.g., epics, user stories, PRD sections, architecture document sections) based on the analysis.
-- Produce a consolidated "Sprint Change Proposal" document that contains the impact analysis and the clearly drafted proposed edits for user review and approval.
-- Ensure a clear handoff path if the nature of the changes necessitates fundamental replanning by other core agents (like PM or Architect).
-
-## Instructions
-
-### 1. Initial Setup & Mode Selection
-
-- **Acknowledge Task & Inputs:**
-  - Confirm with the user that the "Correct Course Task" (Change Navigation & Integration) is being initiated.
-  - Verify the change trigger and ensure you have the user's initial explanation of the issue and its perceived impact.
-  - Confirm access to all relevant project artifacts (e.g., PRD, Epics/Stories, Architecture Documents, UI/UX Specifications) and, critically, the `{root}/checklists/change-checklist`.
-- **Establish Interaction Mode:**
-  - Ask the user their preferred interaction mode for this task:
-    - **"Incrementally (Default & Recommended):** Shall we work through the change-checklist section by section, discussing findings and collaboratively drafting proposed changes for each relevant part before moving to the next? This allows for detailed, step-by-step refinement."
-    - **"YOLO Mode (Batch Processing):** Or, would you prefer I conduct a more batched analysis based on the checklist and then present a consolidated set of findings and proposed changes for a broader review? This can be quicker for initial assessment but might require more extensive review of the combined proposals."
-  - Once the user chooses, confirm the selected mode and then inform the user: "We will now use the change-checklist to analyze the change and draft proposed updates. I will guide you through the checklist items based on our chosen interaction mode."
-
-### 2. Execute Checklist Analysis (Iteratively or Batched, per Interaction Mode)
-
-- Systematically work through Sections 1-4 of the change-checklist (typically covering Change Context, Epic/Story Impact Analysis, Artifact Conflict Resolution, and Path Evaluation/Recommendation).
-- For each checklist item or logical group of items (depending on interaction mode):
-  - Present the relevant prompt(s) or considerations from the checklist to the user.
-  - Request necessary information and actively analyze the relevant project artifacts (PRD, epics, architecture documents, story history, etc.) to assess the impact.
-  - Discuss your findings for each item with the user.
-  - Record the status of each checklist item (e.g., `[x] Addressed`, `[N/A]`, `[!] Further Action Needed`) and any pertinent notes or decisions.
-  - Collaboratively agree on the "Recommended Path Forward" as prompted by Section 4 of the checklist.
-
-### 3. Draft Proposed Changes (Iteratively or Batched)
-
-- Based on the completed checklist analysis (Sections 1-4) and the agreed "Recommended Path Forward" (excluding scenarios requiring fundamental replans that would necessitate immediate handoff to PM/Architect):
-  - Identify the specific project artifacts that require updates (e.g., specific epics, user stories, PRD sections, architecture document components, diagrams).
-  - **Draft the proposed changes directly and explicitly for each identified artifact.** Examples include:
-    - Revising user story text, acceptance criteria, or priority.
-    - Adding, removing, reordering, or splitting user stories within epics.
-    - Proposing modified architecture diagram snippets (e.g., providing an updated Mermaid diagram block or a clear textual description of the change to an existing diagram).
-    - Updating technology lists, configuration details, or specific sections within the PRD or architecture documents.
-    - Drafting new, small supporting artifacts if necessary (e.g., a brief addendum for a specific decision).
-  - If in "Incremental Mode," discuss and refine these proposed edits for each artifact or small group of related artifacts with the user as they are drafted.
-  - If in "YOLO Mode," compile all drafted edits for presentation in the next step.
-
-### 4. Generate "Sprint Change Proposal" with Edits
-
-- Synthesize the complete change-checklist analysis (covering findings from Sections 1-4) and all the agreed-upon proposed edits (from Instruction 3) into a single document titled "Sprint Change Proposal." This proposal should align with the structure suggested by Section 5 of the change-checklist.
-- The proposal must clearly present:
-  - **Analysis Summary:** A concise overview of the original issue, its analyzed impact (on epics, artifacts, MVP scope), and the rationale for the chosen path forward.
-  - **Specific Proposed Edits:** For each affected artifact, clearly show or describe the exact changes (e.g., "Change Story X.Y from: [old text] To: [new text]", "Add new Acceptance Criterion to Story A.B: [new AC]", "Update Section 3.2 of Architecture Document as follows: [new/modified text or diagram description]").
-- Present the complete draft of the "Sprint Change Proposal" to the user for final review and feedback. Incorporate any final adjustments requested by the user.
-
-### 5. Finalize & Determine Next Steps
-
-- Obtain explicit user approval for the "Sprint Change Proposal," including all the specific edits documented within it.
-- Provide the finalized "Sprint Change Proposal" document to the user.
-- **Based on the nature of the approved changes:**
-  - **If the approved edits sufficiently address the change and can be implemented directly or organized by a PO/SM:** State that the "Correct Course Task" is complete regarding analysis and change proposal, and the user can now proceed with implementing or logging these changes (e.g., updating actual project documents, backlog items). Suggest handoff to a PO/SM agent for backlog organization if appropriate.
-  - **If the analysis and proposed path (as per checklist Section 4 and potentially Section 6) indicate that the change requires a more fundamental replan (e.g., significant scope change, major architectural rework):** Clearly state this conclusion. Advise the user that the next step involves engaging the primary PM or Architect agents, using the "Sprint Change Proposal" as critical input and context for that deeper replanning effort.
-
-## Output Deliverables
-
-- **Primary:** A "Sprint Change Proposal" document (in markdown format). This document will contain:
-  - A summary of the change-checklist analysis (issue, impact, rationale for the chosen path).
-  - Specific, clearly drafted proposed edits for all affected project artifacts.
-- **Implicit:** An annotated change-checklist (or the record of its completion) reflecting the discussions, findings, and decisions made during the process.

-# Create Brownfield Story Task
-
-## Purpose
-
-Create detailed, implementation-ready stories for brownfield projects where traditional sharded PRD/architecture documents may not exist. This task bridges the gap between various documentation formats (document-project output, brownfield PRDs, epics, or user documentation) and executable stories for the Dev agent.
-
-## When to Use This Task
-
-**Use this task when:**
-
-- Working on brownfield projects with non-standard documentation
-- Stories need to be created from document-project output
-- Working from brownfield epics without full PRD/architecture
-- Existing project documentation doesn't follow BMad v4+ structure
-- Need to gather additional context from user during story creation
-
-**Use create-next-story when:**
-
-- Working with properly sharded PRD and v4 architecture documents
-- Following standard greenfield or well-documented brownfield workflow
-- All technical context is available in structured format
-
-## Task Execution Instructions
-
-### 0. Documentation Context
-
-Check for available documentation in this order:
-
-1. **Sharded PRD/Architecture** (docs/prd/, docs/architecture/)
-   - If found, recommend using create-next-story task instead
-
-2. **Brownfield Architecture Document** (docs/brownfield-architecture.md or similar)
-   - Created by document-project task
-   - Contains actual system state, technical debt, workarounds
-
-3. **Brownfield PRD** (docs/prd.md)
-   - May contain embedded technical details
-
-4. **Epic Files** (docs/epics/ or similar)
-   - Created by brownfield-create-epic task
-
-5. **User-Provided Documentation**

-- **From Epic Files**: Read epic definition and story list
-- **From User Direction**: Ask user which specific enhancement to implement
-- **No Clear Source**: Work with user to define the story scope
-
-#### 1.2 Gather Essential Context
-
-CRITICAL: For brownfield stories, you MUST gather enough context for safe implementation. Be prepared to ask the user for missing information.
-
-**Required Information Checklist:**
-
-- [ ] What existing functionality might be affected?
-- [ ] What are the integration points with current code?
-- [ ] What patterns should be followed (with examples)?
-- [ ] What technical constraints exist?
-- [ ] Are there any "gotchas" or workarounds to know about?
-
-If any required information is missing, list the missing information and ask the user to provide it.
-
-### 2. Extract Technical Context from Available Sources
-
-#### 2.1 From Document-Project Output
-
-If using brownfield-architecture.md from document-project:
-
-- **Technical Debt Section**: Note any workarounds affecting this story
-- **Key Files Section**: Identify files that will need modification

-- [ ] Task 4: Add tests
-  - [ ] Unit tests following {{project test pattern}}
-  - [ ] Integration test for {{integration point}}
-  - [ ] Update existing tests if needed
-```
-
-### 5. Risk Assessment and Mitigation
-
-CRITICAL: for brownfield - always include risk assessment
-
-Add section for brownfield-specific risks:
-
-```markdown
-## Risk Assessment
-
-### Implementation Risks
-- **Primary Risk**: {{main risk to existing system}}
-- **Mitigation**: {{how to address}}
-- **Verification**: {{how to confirm safety}}
-
-### Rollback Plan
-- {{Simple steps to undo changes if needed}}
-
-### Safety Checks
-- [ ] Existing {{feature}} tested before changes
-- [ ] Changes can be feature-flagged or isolated

-```
-
-### 6. Final Story Validation
-
-Before finalizing:
-
-1. **Completeness Check**:
-   - [ ] Story has clear scope and acceptance criteria
-   - [ ] Technical context is sufficient for implementation
-   - [ ] Integration approach is defined
-   - [ ] Risks are identified with mitigation
-
-2. **Safety Check**:
-   - [ ] Existing functionality protection included
-   - [ ] Rollback plan is feasible
-   - [ ] Testing covers both new and existing features
-
-3. **Information Gaps**:
-   - [ ] All critical missing information gathered from user
-   - [ ] Remaining unknowns documented for dev agent
-   - [ ] Exploration tasks added where needed
-
-### 7. Story Output Format
-
-Save the story with appropriate naming:
-
-- If from epic: `docs/stories/epic-{n}-story-{m}.md`
-- If standalone: `docs/stories/brownfield-{feature-name}.md`
-- If sequential: Follow existing story numbering
-
-Include header noting documentation context:
-
-```markdown
-# Story: {{Title}}
-
-<!-- Source: {{documentation type used}} -->
-<!-- Context: Brownfield enhancement to {{existing system}} -->
-
-## Status: Draft
-[Rest of story content...]
-```
-
-### 8. Handoff Communication
-
-Provide clear handoff to the user:
-
-```text
-Brownfield story created: {{story title}}
-
-Source Documentation: {{what was used}}
-Story Location: {{file path}}
-
-Key Integration Points Identified:
-- {{integration point 1}}
-- {{integration point 2}}
-
-Risks Noted:
-- {{primary risk}}
-
-{{If missing info}}: 
-Note: Some technical details were unclear. The story includes exploration tasks to gather needed information during implementation.
-
-Next Steps:
-1. Review story for accuracy
-2. Verify integration approach aligns with your system
-3. Approve story or request adjustments
-4. Dev agent can then implement with safety checks
-```
-
-## Success Criteria
-
-The brownfield story creation is successful when:
-
-1. Story can be implemented without requiring dev to search multiple documents
-2. Integration approach is clear and safe for existing system
-3. All available technical context has been extracted and organized
-4. Missing information has been identified and addressed
-5. Risks are documented with mitigation strategies
-6. Story includes verification of existing functionality
-7. Rollback approach is defined
-
-## Important Notes
-
-- This task is specifically for brownfield projects with non-standard documentation
-- Always prioritize existing system stability over new features
-- When in doubt, add exploration and verification tasks
-- It's better to ask the user for clarification than make assumptions
-- Each story should be self-contained for the dev agent
-- Include references to existing code patterns when available

-# Create Next Story Task
-
-## Purpose
-
-To identify the next logical story based on project progress and epic definitions, and then to prepare a comprehensive, self-contained, and actionable story file using the `Story Template`. This task ensures the story is enriched with all necessary technical context, requirements, and acceptance criteria, making it ready for efficient implementation by a Developer Agent with minimal need for additional research or finding its own context.
-
-## SEQUENTIAL Task Execution (Do not proceed until current Task is complete)
-
-### 0. Load Core Configuration and Check Workflow
-
-- Load `{root}/core-config.yaml` from the project root
-- If the file does not exist, HALT and inform the user: "core-config.yaml not found. This file is required for story creation. You can either: 1) Copy it from GITHUB bmad-core/core-config.yaml and configure it for your project OR 2) Run the BMad installer against your project to upgrade and add the file automatically. Please add and configure core-config.yaml before proceeding."
-- Extract key configurations: `devStoryLocation`, `prd.*`, `architecture.*`, `workflow.*`
-
-### 1. Identify Next Story for Preparation
-
-#### 1.1 Locate Epic Files and Review Existing Stories
-
-- Based on `prdSharded` from config, locate epic files (sharded location/pattern or monolithic PRD sections)
-- If `devStoryLocation` has story files, load the highest `{epicNum}.{storyNum}.story.md` file
-- **If highest story exists:**
-  - Verify status is 'Done'. If not, alert user: "ALERT: Found incomplete story! File: {lastEpicNum}.{lastStoryNum}.story.md Status: [current status] You should fix this story first, but would you like to accept risk & override to create the next story in draft?"
-  - If proceeding, select next sequential story in the current epic
-  - If epic is complete, prompt user: "Epic {epicNum} Complete: All stories in Epic {epicNum} have been completed. Would you like to: 1) Begin Epic {epicNum + 1} with story 1 2) Select a specific story to work on 3) Cancel story creation"
-  - **CRITICAL**: NEVER automatically skip to another epic. User MUST explicitly instruct which story to create.
-- **If no story files exist:** The next story is ALWAYS 1.1 (first story of first epic)
-- Announce the identified story to the user: "Identified next story for preparation: {epicNum}.{storyNum} - {Story Title}"
-
-### 2. Gather Story Requirements and Previous Story Context
-
-- Extract story requirements from the identified epic file
-- If previous story exists, review Dev Agent Record sections for:
-  - Completion Notes and Debug Log References
-  - Implementation deviations and technical decisions
-  - Challenges encountered and lessons learned
-- Extract relevant insights that inform the current story's preparation
-
-### 3. Gather Architecture Context
-
-#### 3.1 Determine Architecture Reading Strategy
-
-- **If `architectureVersion: >= v4` and `architectureSharded: true`**: Read `{architectureShardedLocation}/index.md` then follow structured reading order below
-- **Else**: Use monolithic `architectureFile` for similar sections
-
-#### 3.2 Read Architecture Documents Based on Story Type
-
-**For ALL Stories:** tech-stack.md, unified-project-structure.md, coding-standards.md, testing-strategy.md
-
-**For Backend/API Stories, additionally:** data-models.md, database-schema.md, backend-architecture.md, rest-api-spec.md, external-apis.md
-
-**For Frontend/UI Stories, additionally:** frontend-architecture.md, components.md, core-workflows.md, data-models.md
-
-**For Full-Stack Stories:** Read both Backend and Frontend sections above
-
-#### 3.3 Extract Story-Specific Technical Details
-
-Extract ONLY information directly relevant to implementing the current story. Do NOT invent new libraries, patterns, or standards not in the source documents.
-
-Extract:
-
-- Specific data models, schemas, or structures the story will use
-- API endpoints the story must implement or consume
-- Component specifications for UI elements in the story
-- File paths and naming conventions for new code
-- Testing requirements specific to the story's features
-- Security or performance considerations affecting the story
-
-ALWAYS cite source documents: `[Source: architecture/{filename}.md#{section}]`
-
-### 4. Verify Project Structure Alignment
-
-- Cross-reference story requirements with Project Structure Guide from `docs/architecture/unified-project-structure.md`
-- Ensure file paths, component locations, or module names align with defined structures
-- Document any structural conflicts in "Project Structure Notes" section within the story draft
-
-### 5. Populate Story Template with Full Context
-
-- Create new story file: `{devStoryLocation}/{epicNum}.{storyNum}.story.md` using Story Template
-- Fill in basic story information: Title, Status (Draft), Story statement, Acceptance Criteria from Epic
-- **`Dev Notes` section (CRITICAL):**
-  - CRITICAL: This section MUST contain ONLY information extracted from architecture documents. NEVER invent or assume technical details.
-  - Include ALL relevant technical details from Steps 2-3, organized by category:
-    - **Previous Story Insights**: Key learnings from previous story
-    - **Data Models**: Specific schemas, validation rules, relationships [with source references]
-    - **API Specifications**: Endpoint details, request/response formats, auth requirements [with source references]
-    - **Component Specifications**: UI component details, props, state management [with source references]
-    - **File Locations**: Exact paths where new code should be created based on project structure
-    - **Testing Requirements**: Specific test cases or strategies from testing-strategy.md
-    - **Technical Constraints**: Version requirements, performance considerations, security rules
-  - Every technical detail MUST include its source reference: `[Source: architecture/{filename}.md#{section}]`
-  - If information for a category is not found in the architecture docs, explicitly state: "No specific guidance found in architecture docs"
-- **`Tasks / Subtasks` section:**
-  - Generate detailed, sequential list of technical tasks based ONLY on: Epic Requirements, Story AC, Reviewed Architecture Information
-  - Each task must reference relevant architecture documentation
-  - Include unit testing as explicit subtasks based on the Testing Strategy
-  - Link tasks to ACs where applicable (e.g., `Task 1 (AC: 1, 3)`)
-- Add notes on project structure alignment or discrepancies found in Step 4
-
-### 6. Story Draft Completion and Review
-
-- Review all sections for completeness and accuracy
-- Verify all source references are included for technical details
-- Ensure tasks align with both epic requirements and architecture constraints
-- Update status to "Draft" and save the story file
-- Execute `{root}/tasks/execute-checklist` `{root}/checklists/story-draft-checklist`
-- Provide summary to user including:
-  - Story created: `{devStoryLocation}/{epicNum}.{storyNum}.story.md`
-  - Status: Draft
-  - Key technical components included from architecture docs
-  - Any deviations or conflicts noted between epic and architecture
-  - Checklist Results
-  - Next steps: For Complex stories, suggest the user carefully review the story draft and also optionally have the PO run the task `{root}/tasks/validate-next-story`

-# 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
-
-**CRITICAL:** First, check if a PRD or requirements document exists in context. If yes, use it to focus your documentation efforts on relevant areas only.
-
-**IF PRD EXISTS**:
-
-- Review the PRD to understand what enhancement/feature is planned
-- Identify which modules, services, or areas will be affected
-- Focus documentation ONLY on these relevant areas
-- Skip unrelated parts of the codebase to keep docs lean
-
-**IF NO PRD EXISTS**:
-Ask the user:
-
-"I notice you haven't provided a PRD or requirements document. To create more focused and useful documentation, I recommend one of these options:
-
-1. **Create a PRD first** - Would you like me to help create a brownfield PRD before documenting? This helps focus documentation on relevant areas.
-
-2. **Provide existing requirements** - Do you have a requirements document, epic, or feature description you can share?
-
-3. **Describe the focus** - Can you briefly describe what enhancement or feature you're planning? For example:
-   - 'Adding payment processing to the user service'
-   - 'Refactoring the authentication module'
-   - 'Integrating with a new third-party API'
-
-4. **Document everything** - Or should I proceed with comprehensive documentation of the entire codebase? (Note: This may create excessive documentation for large projects)
-
-Please let me know your preference, or I can proceed with full documentation if you prefer."
-
-Based on their response:
-
-- If they choose option 1-3: Use that context to focus documentation
-- If they choose option 4 or decline: Proceed with comprehensive analysis below
-
-Begin by conducting 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)
-- Is there a specific feature or enhancement you're planning? (This helps focus documentation)
-
-### 2. Deep Codebase Analysis
-
-CRITICAL: Before generating documentation, conduct extensive analysis of the existing codebase:
-
-1. **Explore Key Areas**:
-   - Entry points (main files, index files, app initializers)
-   - Configuration files and environment setup
-   - Package dependencies and versions
-   - Build and deployment configurations
-   - Test suites and coverage
-
-2. **Ask Clarifying Questions**:
-   - "I see you're using [technology X]. Are there any custom patterns or conventions I should document?"
-   - "What are the most critical/complex parts of this system that developers struggle with?"
-   - "Are there any undocumented 'tribal knowledge' areas I should capture?"
-   - "What technical debt or known issues should I document?"
-   - "Which parts of the codebase change most frequently?"
-
-3. **Map the Reality**:
-   - Identify ACTUAL patterns used (not theoretical best practices)
-   - Find where key business logic lives
-   - Locate integration points and external dependencies
-   - Document workarounds and technical debt
-   - Note areas that differ from standard patterns
-
-**IF PRD PROVIDED**: Also analyze what would need to change for the enhancement
-
-### 3. Core Documentation Generation
-
-[[LLM: Generate a comprehensive BROWNFIELD architecture document that reflects the ACTUAL state of the codebase.
-
-**CRITICAL**: This is NOT an aspirational architecture document. Document what EXISTS, including:
-
-- Technical debt and workarounds
-- Inconsistent patterns between different parts
-- Legacy code that can't be changed
-- Integration constraints
-- Performance bottlenecks
-
-**Document Structure**:
-
-# [Project Name] Brownfield Architecture Document
-
-## Introduction
-
-This document captures the CURRENT STATE of the [Project Name] codebase, including technical debt, workarounds, and real-world patterns. It serves as a reference for AI agents working on enhancements.

-
-| Category | Technology | Version | Notes |
-|----------|------------|---------|--------|
-| Runtime | Node.js | 16.x | [Any constraints] |
-| Framework | Express | 4.18.2 | [Custom middleware?] |
-| Database | PostgreSQL | 13 | [Connection pooling setup] |
-
-etc...
-
-### Repository Structure Reality Check
-
-- Type: [Monorepo/Polyrepo/Hybrid]
-- Package Manager: [npm/yarn/pnpm]
-- Notable: [Any unusual structure decisions]
-
-## Source Tree and Module Organization
-
-### Project Structure (Actual)
-
-```text
-project-root/
-├── src/
-│   ├── controllers/     # HTTP request handlers
-│   ├── services/        # Business logic (NOTE: inconsistent patterns between user and payment services)
-│   ├── models/          # Database models (Sequelize)
-│   ├── utils/           # Mixed bag - needs refactoring
-│   └── legacy/          # DO NOT MODIFY - old payment system still in use
-├── tests/               # Jest tests (60% coverage)
-├── scripts/             # Build and deployment scripts
-└── config/              # Environment configs
-```
-
-### Key Modules and Their Purpose
-
-- **User Management**: `src/services/userService.js` - Handles all user operations
-- **Authentication**: `src/middleware/auth.js` - JWT-based, custom implementation
-- **Payment Processing**: `src/legacy/payment.js` - CRITICAL: Do not refactor, tightly coupled
-- **[List other key modules with their actual files]**
-
-## Data Models and APIs
-
-### Data Models
-
-Instead of duplicating, reference actual model files:
-- **User Model**: See `src/models/User.js`
-- **Order Model**: See `src/models/Order.js`
-- **Related Types**: TypeScript definitions in `src/types/`
-
-### API Specifications
-
-- **OpenAPI Spec**: `docs/api/openapi.yaml` (if exists)
-- **Postman Collection**: `docs/api/postman-collection.json`
-- **Manual Endpoints**: [List any undocumented endpoints discovered]
-
-## Technical Debt and Known Issues
-
-### Critical Technical Debt
-
-1. **Payment Service**: Legacy code in `src/legacy/payment.js` - tightly coupled, no tests
-2. **User Service**: Different pattern than other services, uses callbacks instead of promises
-3. **Database Migrations**: Manually tracked, no proper migration tool
-4. **[Other significant debt]**
-
-### Workarounds and Gotchas
-
-- **Environment Variables**: Must set `NODE_ENV=production` even for staging (historical reason)
-- **Database Connections**: Connection pool hardcoded to 10, changing breaks payment service
-- **[Other workarounds developers need to know]**
-
-## Integration Points and External Dependencies
-
-### External Services
-
-| Service | Purpose | Integration Type | Key Files |
-|---------|---------|------------------|-----------|
-| Stripe | Payments | REST API | `src/integrations/stripe/` |
-| SendGrid | Emails | SDK | `src/services/emailService.js` |
-
-etc...
-
-### Internal Integration Points
-
-- **Frontend Communication**: REST API on port 3000, expects specific headers
-- **Background Jobs**: Redis queue, see `src/workers/`
-- **[Other integrations]**
-
-## Development and Deployment
-
-### Local Development Setup
-
-1. Actual steps that work (not ideal steps)
-2. Known issues with setup
-3. Required environment variables (see `.env.example`)
-
-### Build and Deployment Process
-
-- **Build Command**: `npm run build` (webpack config in `webpack.config.js`)
-- **Deployment**: Manual deployment via `scripts/deploy.sh`
-- **Environments**: Dev, Staging, Prod (see `config/environments/`)
-
-## Testing Reality
-
-### Current Test Coverage
-
-- Unit Tests: 60% coverage (Jest)
-- Integration Tests: Minimal, in `tests/integration/`
-- E2E Tests: None
-- Manual Testing: Primary QA method
-
-### Running Tests
-
-```bash
-npm test           # Runs unit tests
-npm run test:integration  # Runs integration tests (requires local DB)
-```
-
-## If Enhancement PRD Provided - Impact Analysis
-
-### Files That Will Need Modification
-
-Based on the enhancement requirements, these files will be affected:
-- `src/services/userService.js` - Add new user fields
-- `src/models/User.js` - Update schema
-- `src/routes/userRoutes.js` - New endpoints
-- [etc...]
-
-### New Files/Modules Needed
-
-- `src/services/newFeatureService.js` - New business logic
-- `src/models/NewFeature.js` - New data model
-- [etc...]
-
-### Integration Considerations
-
-- Will need to integrate with existing auth middleware
-- Must follow existing response format in `src/utils/responseFormatter.js`
-- [Other integration points]
-
-## Appendix - Useful Commands and Scripts
-
-### Frequently Used Commands
-
-```bash
-npm run dev         # Start development server
-npm run build       # Production build
-npm run migrate     # Run database migrations
-npm run seed        # Seed test data
-```
-
-### Debugging and Troubleshooting
-
-- **Logs**: Check `logs/app.log` for application logs
-- **Debug Mode**: Set `DEBUG=app:*` for verbose logging
-- **Common Issues**: See `docs/troubleshooting.md`]]
-
-### 4. Document Delivery
-
-1. **In Web UI (Gemini, ChatGPT, Claude)**:
-   - Present the entire document in one response (or multiple if too long)
-   - Tell user to copy and save as `docs/brownfield-architecture.md` or `docs/project-architecture.md`
-   - Mention it can be sharded later in IDE if needed
-
-2. **In IDE Environment**:
-   - Create the document as `docs/brownfield-architecture.md`
-   - Inform user this single document contains all architectural information
-   - Can be sharded later using PO agent if desired
-
-The document should be comprehensive enough that future agents can understand:
-
-- The actual state of the system (not idealized)
-- Where to find key files and logic
-- What technical debt exists
-- What constraints must be respected
-- If PRD provided: What needs to change for the enhancement]]
-
-### 5. Quality Assurance
-
-CRITICAL: Before finalizing the document:
-
-1. **Accuracy Check**: Verify all technical details match the actual codebase
-2. **Completeness Review**: Ensure all major system components are documented
-3. **Focus Validation**: If user provided scope, verify relevant areas are emphasized
-4. **Clarity Assessment**: Check that explanations are clear for AI agents
-5. **Navigation**: Ensure document has clear section structure for easy reference
-
-Apply the advanced elicitation task after major sections to refine based on user feedback.
-
-## Success Criteria
-
-- Single comprehensive brownfield architecture document created
-- Document reflects REALITY including technical debt and workarounds
-- Key files and modules are referenced with actual paths
-- Models/APIs reference source files rather than duplicating content
-- If PRD provided: Clear impact analysis showing what needs to change
-- Document enables AI agents to navigate and understand the actual codebase
-- Technical constraints and "gotchas" are clearly documented
-
-## Notes
-
-- This task creates ONE document that captures the TRUE state of the system
-- References actual files rather than duplicating content when possible
-- Documents technical debt, workarounds, and constraints honestly
-- For brownfield projects with PRD: Provides clear enhancement impact analysis
-- The goal is PRACTICAL documentation for AI agents doing real work

-# Facilitate Brainstorming Session Task
-
-Facilitate interactive brainstorming sessions with users. Be creative and adaptive in applying techniques.
-
-## Process
-
-### Step 1: Session Setup
-
-Ask 4 context questions (don't preview what happens next):
-
-1. What are we brainstorming about?
-2. Any constraints or parameters?
-3. Goal: broad exploration or focused ideation?
-4. Do you want a structured document output to reference later? (Y/N)
-
-### Step 2: Present Approach Options
-
-After getting answers to Step 1, present 4 approach options (numbered):
-
-1. User selects specific techniques
-2. Analyst recommends techniques based on context
-3. Random technique selection for creative variety
-4. Progressive technique flow (start broad, narrow down)
-
-### Step 3: Execute Techniques Interactively
-
-**KEY PRINCIPLES:**
-
-- **FACILITATOR ROLE**: Guide user to generate their own ideas through questions, prompts, and examples
-- **CONTINUOUS ENGAGEMENT**: Keep user engaged with chosen technique until they want to switch or are satisfied
-- **CAPTURE OUTPUT**: If document output requested, capture all ideas generated in each technique section
-
-**Technique Selection:**
-If user selects Option 1, present numbered list of techniques from the brainstorming-techniques data file. User can select by number (e.g., "7" for Mind Mapping).
-
-**Technique Execution:**
-
-1. Apply selected technique according to data file description
-2. Keep engaging with technique until user indicates they want to:
-   - Choose a different technique
-   - Apply current ideas to a new technique  
-   - Move to convergent phase
-   - End session
-
-**Output Capture (if requested):**
-For each technique used, capture:
-
-- Technique name and duration
-- Key ideas generated by user
-- Insights and patterns identified
-- User's reflections on the process
-
-### Step 4: Session Flow
-
-1. **Warm-up** (5-10 min) - Build creative confidence
-2. **Divergent** (20-30 min) - Generate quantity over quality
-3. **Convergent** (15-20 min) - Group and categorize ideas
-4. **Synthesis** (10-15 min) - Refine and develop concepts
-
-### Step 5: Document Output (if requested)
-
-Generate structured document with these sections:
-
-**Executive Summary**
-
-- Session topic and goals
-- Techniques used and duration
-- Total ideas generated
-- Key themes and patterns identified
-
-**Technique Sections** (for each technique used)
-
-- Technique name and description
-- Ideas generated (user's own words)
-- Insights discovered
-- Notable connections or patterns
-
-**Idea Categorization**
-
-- **Immediate Opportunities** - Ready to implement now
-- **Future Innovations** - Requires development/research
-- **Moonshots** - Ambitious, transformative concepts
-- **Insights & Learnings** - Key realizations from session
-
-**Action Planning**
-
-- Top 3 priority ideas with rationale
-- Next steps for each priority
-- Resources/research needed
-- Timeline considerations
-
-**Reflection & Follow-up**
-
-- What worked well in this session
-- Areas for further exploration
-- Recommended follow-up techniques
-- Questions that emerged for future sessions
-
-## Key Principles
-
-- **YOU ARE A FACILITATOR**: Guide the user to brainstorm, don't brainstorm for them
-- **INTERACTIVE DIALOGUE**: Ask questions, wait for responses, build on their ideas
-- **ONE TECHNIQUE AT A TIME**: Don't mix multiple techniques in one response
-- **CONTINUOUS ENGAGEMENT**: Stay with one technique until user wants to switch
-- **DRAW IDEAS OUT**: Use prompts and examples to help them generate their own ideas
-- **REAL-TIME ADAPTATION**: Monitor engagement and adjust approach as needed
-- Maintain energy and momentum
-- Defer judgment during generation
-- Quantity leads to quality (aim for 100 ideas in 60 minutes)
-- Build on ideas collaboratively
-- Document everything if output requested
-
-## Advanced Engagement Strategies
-
-**Energy Management**
-
-- Check engagement levels: "How are you feeling about this direction?"
-- Offer breaks or technique switches if energy flags
-- Use encouraging language and celebrate idea generation
-
-**Depth vs. Breadth**
-
-- Ask follow-up questions to deepen ideas: "Tell me more about that..."
-- Use "Yes, and..." to build on their ideas
-- Help them make connections: "How does this relate to your earlier idea about...?"
-
-**Transition Management**
-
-- Always ask before switching techniques: "Ready to try a different approach?"
-- Offer options: "Should we explore this idea deeper or generate more alternatives?"
-- Respect their process and timing

-# 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.md`)
-- 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>

-# Index Documentation Task
-
-## Purpose
-
-This task maintains the integrity and completeness of the `docs/index.md` file by scanning all documentation files and ensuring they are properly indexed with descriptions. It handles both root-level documents and documents within subfolders, organizing them hierarchically.
-
-## Task Instructions
-
-You are now operating as a Documentation Indexer. Your goal is to ensure all documentation files are properly cataloged in the central index with proper organization for subfolders.
-
-### Required Steps
-
-1. First, locate and scan:
-
-   - The `docs/` directory and all subdirectories
-   - The existing `docs/index.md` file (create if absent)
-   - All markdown (`.md`) and text (`.txt`) files in the documentation structure
-   - Note the folder structure for hierarchical organization
-
-2. For the existing `docs/index.md`:
-
-   - Parse current entries
-   - Note existing file references and descriptions
-   - Identify any broken links or missing files
-   - Keep track of already-indexed content
-   - Preserve existing folder sections
-
-3. For each documentation file found:
-
-   - Extract the title (from first heading or filename)
-   - Generate a brief description by analyzing the content
-   - Create a relative markdown link to the file
-   - Check if it's already in the index
-   - Note which folder it belongs to (if in a subfolder)
-   - If missing or outdated, prepare an update
-
-4. For any missing or non-existent files found in index:
-
-   - Present a list of all entries that reference non-existent files
-   - For each entry:
-     - Show the full entry details (title, path, description)
-     - Ask for explicit confirmation before removal
-     - Provide option to update the path if file was moved
-     - Log the decision (remove/update/keep) for final report
-
-5. Update `docs/index.md`:
-   - Maintain existing structure and organization
-   - Create level 2 sections (`##`) for each subfolder
-   - List root-level documents first
-   - Add missing entries with descriptions
-   - Update outdated entries
-   - Remove only entries that were confirmed for removal
-   - Ensure consistent formatting throughout
-
-### Index Structure Format
-
-The index should be organized as follows:
-
-```markdown
-# Documentation Index
-
-## Root Documents
-
-### [Document Title](./document.md)

-Description here.
-
-## Folder Name
-
-Documents within the `folder-name/` directory:
-
-### [Document in Folder](./folder-name/document.md)
-
-Description of this document.
-
-### [Another in Folder](./folder-name/another.md)
-
-Description here.
-
-## Another Folder

-Description of nested document.
-
-```
-
-### Index Entry Format
-
-Each entry should follow this format:
-
-```markdown
-### [Document Title](relative/path/to/file.md)
-
-Brief description of the document's purpose and contents.
-```
-
-### Rules of Operation
-
-1. NEVER modify the content of indexed files
-2. Preserve existing descriptions in index.md when they are adequate
-3. Maintain any existing categorization or grouping in the index
-4. Use relative paths for all links (starting with `./`)
-5. Ensure descriptions are concise but informative
-6. NEVER remove entries without explicit confirmation
-7. Report any broken links or inconsistencies found
-8. Allow path updates for moved files before considering removal
-9. Create folder sections using level 2 headings (`##`)
-10. Sort folders alphabetically, with root documents listed first
-11. Within each section, sort documents alphabetically by title
-
-### Process Output
-
-The task will provide:
-
-1. A summary of changes made to index.md
-2. List of newly indexed files (organized by folder)
-3. List of updated entries
-4. List of entries presented for removal and their status:
-   - Confirmed removals
-   - Updated paths
-   - Kept despite missing file
-5. Any new folders discovered
-6. Any other issues or inconsistencies found
-
-### Handling Missing Files
-
-For each file referenced in the index but not found in the filesystem:
-
-1. Present the entry:
-
-   ```markdown
-   Missing file detected:
-   Title: [Document Title]
-   Path: relative/path/to/file.md
-   Description: Existing description
-   Section: [Root Documents | Folder Name]
-
-   Options:
-
-   1. Remove this entry
-   2. Update the file path
-   3. Keep entry (mark as temporarily unavailable)
-
-   Please choose an option (1/2/3):
-   ```
-
-2. Wait for user confirmation before taking any action
-3. Log the decision for the final report
-
-### Special Cases
-
-1. **Sharded Documents**: If a folder contains an `index.md` file, treat it as a sharded document:
-
-   - Use the folder's `index.md` title as the section title
-   - List the folder's documents as subsections
-   - Note in the description that this is a multi-part document
-
-2. **README files**: Convert `README.md` to more descriptive titles based on content
-
-3. **Nested Subfolders**: For deeply nested folders, maintain the hierarchy but limit to 2 levels in the main index. Deeper structures should have their own index files.
-
-## Required Input
-
-Please provide:
-
-1. Location of the `docs/` directory (default: `./docs`)
-2. Confirmation of write access to `docs/index.md`
-3. Any specific categorization preferences
-4. Any files or directories to exclude from indexing (e.g., `.git`, `node_modules`)
-5. Whether to include hidden files/folders (starting with `.`)
-
-Would you like to proceed with documentation indexing? Please provide the required input above.

-# review-story
-
-When a developer agent marks a story as "Ready for Review", perform a comprehensive senior developer code review with the ability to refactor and improve code directly.
-
-## Prerequisites
-
-- Story status must be "Review"
-- Developer has completed all tasks and updated the File List
-- All automated tests are passing
-
-## Review Process
-
-1. **Read the Complete Story**
-   - Review all acceptance criteria
-   - Understand the dev notes and requirements
-   - Note any completion notes from the developer
-
-2. **Verify Implementation Against Dev Notes Guidance**
-   - Review the "Dev Notes" section for specific technical guidance provided to the developer
-   - Verify the developer's implementation follows the architectural patterns specified in Dev Notes
-   - Check that file locations match the project structure guidance in Dev Notes
-   - Confirm any specified libraries, frameworks, or technical approaches were used correctly
-   - Validate that security considerations mentioned in Dev Notes were implemented
-
-3. **Focus on the File List**
-   - Verify all files listed were actually created/modified
-   - Check for any missing files that should have been updated
-   - Ensure file locations align with the project structure guidance from Dev Notes
-
-4. **Senior Developer Code Review**
-   - Review code with the eye of a senior developer

-     - Refactoring opportunities
-     - Code duplication or inefficiencies
-     - Performance optimizations
-     - Security concerns
-     - Best practices and patterns
-
-5. **Active Refactoring**
-   - As a senior developer, you CAN and SHOULD refactor code where improvements are needed
-   - When refactoring:
-     - Make the changes directly in the files
-     - Explain WHY you're making the change
-     - Describe HOW the change improves the code
-     - Ensure all tests still pass after refactoring

-# Document Sharding Task
-
-## Purpose
-
-- Split a large document into multiple smaller documents based on level 2 sections
-- Create a folder structure to organize the sharded documents
-- Maintain all content integrity including code blocks, diagrams, and markdown formatting
-
-## Primary Method: Automatic with markdown-tree
-
-[[LLM: First, check if markdownExploder is set to true in {root}/core-config.yaml. If it is, attempt to run the command: `md-tree explode {input file} {output path}`.
-
-If the command succeeds, inform the user that the document has been sharded successfully and STOP - do not proceed further.
-
-If the command fails (especially with an error indicating the command is not found or not available), inform the user: "The markdownExploder setting is enabled but the md-tree command is not available. Please either:
-
-1. Install @kayvan/markdown-tree-parser globally with: `npm install -g @kayvan/markdown-tree-parser`
-2. Or set markdownExploder to false in {root}/core-config.yaml
-
-**IMPORTANT: STOP HERE - do not proceed with manual sharding until one of the above actions is taken.**"
-
-If markdownExploder is set to false, inform the user: "The markdownExploder setting is currently false. For better performance and reliability, you should:
-
-1. Set markdownExploder to true in {root}/core-config.yaml
-2. Install @kayvan/markdown-tree-parser globally with: `npm install -g @kayvan/markdown-tree-parser`
-
-I will now proceed with the manual sharding process."
-
-Then proceed with the manual method below ONLY if markdownExploder is false.]]
-
-### Installation and Usage
-
-1. **Install globally**:
-
-   ```bash
-   npm install -g @kayvan/markdown-tree-parser
-   ```
-
-2. **Use the explode command**:
-
-   ```bash
-   # For PRD
-   md-tree explode docs/prd.md docs/prd
-
-   # For Architecture
-   md-tree explode docs/architecture.md docs/architecture
-
-   # For any document
-   md-tree explode [source-document] [destination-folder]
-   ```
-
-3. **What it does**:
-   - Automatically splits the document by level 2 sections
-   - Creates properly named files
-   - Adjusts heading levels appropriately
-   - Handles all edge cases with code blocks and special markdown
-
-If the user has @kayvan/markdown-tree-parser installed, use it and skip the manual process below.
-
----
-
-## Manual Method (if @kayvan/markdown-tree-parser is not available or user indicated manual method)
-
-### Task Instructions
-
-1. Identify Document and Target Location
-
-- Determine which document to shard (user-provided path)
-- Create a new folder under `docs/` with the same name as the document (without extension)
-- Example: `docs/prd.md` → create folder `docs/prd/`
-
-2. Parse and Extract Sections
-
-CRITICAL AEGNT SHARDING RULES:
-
-1. Read the entire document content
-2. Identify all level 2 sections (## headings)
-3. For each level 2 section:
-   - Extract the section heading and ALL content until the next level 2 section
-   - Include all subsections, code blocks, diagrams, lists, tables, etc.
-   - Be extremely careful with:
-     - Fenced code blocks (```) - ensure you capture the full block including closing backticks and account for potential misleading level 2's that are actually part of a fenced section example
-     - Mermaid diagrams - preserve the complete diagram syntax
-     - Nested markdown elements
-     - Multi-line content that might contain ## inside code blocks
-
-CRITICAL: Use proper parsing that understands markdown context. A ## inside a code block is NOT a section header.]]
-
-### 3. Create Individual Files
-
-For each extracted section:
-
-1. **Generate filename**: Convert the section heading to lowercase-dash-case
-
-   - Remove special characters
-   - Replace spaces with dashes
-   - Example: "## Tech Stack" → `tech-stack.md`
-
-2. **Adjust heading levels**:
-
-   - The level 2 heading becomes level 1 (# instead of ##) in the sharded new document
-   - All subsection levels decrease by 1:
-
-   ```txt
-     - ### → ##
-     - #### → ###
-     - ##### → ####
-     - etc.
-   ```
-
-3. **Write content**: Save the adjusted content to the new file
-
-### 4. Create Index File
-
-Create an `index.md` file in the sharded folder that:
-
-1. Contains the original level 1 heading and any content before the first level 2 section
-2. Lists all the sharded files with links:
-
-```markdown
-# Original Document Title
-
-[Original introduction content if any]
-
-## Sections
-
-- [Section Name 1](./section-name-1.md)
-- [Section Name 2](./section-name-2.md)
-- [Section Name 3](./section-name-3.md)
-  ...
-```
-
-### 5. Preserve Special Content
-
-1. **Code blocks**: Must capture complete blocks including:
-
-   ```language
-   content
-   ```
-
-2. **Mermaid diagrams**: Preserve complete syntax:
-
-   ```mermaid
-   graph TD
-   ...
-   ```
-
-3. **Tables**: Maintain proper markdown table formatting
-
-4. **Lists**: Preserve indentation and nesting
-
-5. **Inline code**: Preserve backticks
-
-6. **Links and references**: Keep all markdown links intact
-
-7. **Template markup**: If documents contain {{placeholders}} ,preserve exactly
-
-### 6. Validation
-
-After sharding:
-
-1. Verify all sections were extracted
-2. Check that no content was lost
-3. Ensure heading levels were properly adjusted
-4. Confirm all files were created successfully
-
-### 7. Report Results
-
-Provide a summary:
-
-```text
-Document sharded successfully:
-- Source: [original document path]
-- Destination: docs/[folder-name]/
-- Files created: [count]
-- Sections:
-  - section-name-1.md: "Section Title 1"
-  - section-name-2.md: "Section Title 2"
-  ...
-```
-
-## Important Notes
-
-- Never modify the actual content, only adjust heading levels
-- Preserve ALL formatting, including whitespace where significant
-- Handle edge cases like sections with code blocks containing ## symbols
-- Ensure the sharding is reversible (could reconstruct the original from shards)

-        instruction: |
-          Before proceeding further with architecture design, check if the project is based on a starter template or existing codebase:
-          
-          1. Review the PRD and brainstorming brief for any mentions of:
-          - Starter templates (e.g., Create React App, Next.js, Vue CLI, Angular CLI, etc.)
-          - Existing projects or codebases being used as a foundation
-          - Boilerplate projects or scaffolding tools
-          - Previous projects to be cloned or adapted
-          
-          2. If a starter template or existing project is mentioned:
-          - Ask the user to provide access via one of these methods:
-            - Link to the starter template documentation
-            - Upload/attach the project files (for small projects)
-            - Share a link to the project repository (GitHub, GitLab, etc.)
-          - Analyze the starter/existing project to understand:
-            - Pre-configured technology stack and versions
-            - Project structure and organization patterns
-            - Built-in scripts and tooling
-            - Existing architectural patterns and conventions
-            - Any limitations or constraints imposed by the starter
-          - Use this analysis to inform and align your architecture decisions
-          
-          3. If no starter template is mentioned but this is a greenfield project:
-          - Suggest appropriate starter templates based on the tech stack preferences
-          - Explain the benefits (faster setup, best practices, community support)
-          - Let the user decide whether to use one
-          
-          4. If the user confirms no starter template will be used:
-          - Proceed with architecture design from scratch
-          - Note that manual setup will be required for all tooling and configuration
-

-      IMPORTANT - SCOPE AND ASSESSMENT REQUIRED:
-      
-      This architecture document is for SIGNIFICANT enhancements to existing projects that require comprehensive architectural planning. Before proceeding:
-      
-      1. **Verify Complexity**: Confirm this enhancement requires architectural planning. For simple additions, recommend: "For simpler changes that don't require architectural planning, consider using the brownfield-create-epic or brownfield-create-story task with the Product Owner instead."
-      
-      2. **REQUIRED INPUTS**:
-         - Completed brownfield-prd.md
-         - Existing project technical documentation (from docs folder or user-provided)
-         - Access to existing project structure (IDE or uploaded files)
-      
-      3. **DEEP ANALYSIS MANDATE**: You MUST conduct thorough analysis of the existing codebase, architecture patterns, and technical constraints before making ANY architectural recommendations. Every suggestion must be based on actual project analysis, not assumptions.
-      
-      4. **CONTINUOUS VALIDATION**: Throughout this process, explicitly validate your understanding with the user. For every architectural decision, confirm: "Based on my analysis of your existing system, I recommend [decision] because [evidence from actual project]. Does this align with your system's reality?"
-      
-      If any required inputs are missing, request them before proceeding.

-    instruction: |
-      IMPORTANT - SCOPE ASSESSMENT REQUIRED:
-      
-      This PRD is for SIGNIFICANT enhancements to existing projects that require comprehensive planning and multiple stories. Before proceeding:
-      
-      1. **Assess Enhancement Complexity**: If this is a simple feature addition or bug fix that could be completed in 1-2 focused development sessions, STOP and recommend: "For simpler changes, consider using the brownfield-create-epic or brownfield-create-story task with the Product Owner instead. This full PRD process is designed for substantial enhancements that require architectural planning and multiple coordinated stories."
-      
-      2. **Project Context**: Determine if we're working in an IDE with the project already loaded or if the user needs to provide project information. If project files are available, analyze existing documentation in the docs folder. If insufficient documentation exists, recommend running the document-project task first.
-      
-      3. **Deep Assessment Requirement**: You MUST thoroughly analyze the existing project structure, patterns, and constraints before making ANY suggestions. Every recommendation must be grounded in actual project analysis, not assumptions.
-      
-      Gather comprehensive information about the existing project. This section must be completed before proceeding with requirements.
-      
-      CRITICAL: Throughout this analysis, explicitly confirm your understanding with the user. For every assumption you make about the existing project, ask: "Based on my analysis, I understand that [assumption]. Is this correct?"
-      
-      Do not proceed with any recommendations until the user has validated your understanding of the existing system.

-    instruction: |
-      Review provided documents including PRD, UX-UI Specification, and main Architecture Document. Focus on extracting technical implementation details needed for AI frontend tools and developer agents. Ask the user for any of these documents if you are unable to locate and were not provided.
-      
-      Before proceeding with frontend architecture design, check if the project is using a frontend starter template or existing codebase:
-      
-      1. Review the PRD, main architecture document, and brainstorming brief for mentions of:
-         - Frontend starter templates (e.g., Create React App, Next.js, Vite, Vue CLI, Angular CLI, etc.)
-         - UI kit or component library starters
-         - Existing frontend projects being used as a foundation
-         - Admin dashboard templates or other specialized starters
-         - Design system implementations
-      
-      2. If a frontend starter template or existing project is mentioned:
-         - Ask the user to provide access via one of these methods:
-           - Link to the starter template documentation
-           - Upload/attach the project files (for small projects)
-           - Share a link to the project repository
-         - Analyze the starter/existing project to understand:
-           - Pre-installed dependencies and versions
-           - Folder structure and file organization
-           - Built-in components and utilities
-           - Styling approach (CSS modules, styled-components, Tailwind, etc.)
-           - State management setup (if any)
-           - Routing configuration
-           - Testing setup and patterns
-           - Build and development scripts
-         - Use this analysis to ensure your frontend architecture aligns with the starter's patterns
-      
-      3. If no frontend starter is mentioned but this is a new UI, ensure we know what the ui language and framework is:
-         - Based on the framework choice, suggest appropriate starters:
-           - React: Create React App, Next.js, Vite + React
-           - Vue: Vue CLI, Nuxt.js, Vite + Vue
-           - Angular: Angular CLI
-           - Or suggest popular UI templates if applicable
-         - Explain benefits specific to frontend development
-      
-      4. If the user confirms no starter template will be used:
-         - Note that all tooling, bundling, and configuration will need manual setup
-         - Proceed with frontend architecture from scratch
-      
-      Document the starter template decision and any constraints it imposes before proceeding.

-    instruction: |
-      If available, review any provided relevant documents to gather all relevant context before beginning. At minimum, you should have access to docs/prd.md and docs/front-end-spec.md. Ask the user for any documents you need but cannot locate. This template creates a unified architecture that covers both backend and frontend concerns to guide AI-driven fullstack development.

-      This document outlines the complete fullstack architecture for {{project_name}}, including backend systems, frontend implementation, and their integration. It serves as the single source of truth for AI-driven development, ensuring consistency across the entire technology stack.
-      
-      This unified approach combines what would traditionally be separate backend and frontend architecture documents, streamlining the development process for modern fullstack applications where these concerns are increasingly intertwined.

-        title: Starter Template or Existing Project
-        instruction: |
-          Before proceeding with architecture design, check if the project is based on any starter templates or existing codebases:
-          
-          1. Review the PRD and other documents for mentions of:
-          - Fullstack starter templates (e.g., T3 Stack, MEAN/MERN starters, Django + React templates)
-          - Monorepo templates (e.g., Nx, Turborepo starters)
-          - Platform-specific starters (e.g., Vercel templates, AWS Amplify starters)
-          - Existing projects being extended or cloned
-          
-          2. If starter templates or existing projects are mentioned:
-          - Ask the user to provide access (links, repos, or files)
-          - Analyze to understand pre-configured choices and constraints
-          - Note any architectural decisions already made
-          - Identify what can be modified vs what must be retained
-          
-          3. If no starter is mentioned but this is greenfield:
-          - Suggest appropriate fullstack starters based on tech preferences
-          - Consider platform-specific options (Vercel, AWS, etc.)
-          - Let user decide whether to use one
-          
-          4. Document the decision and any constraints it imposes
-          
-          If none, state "N/A - Greenfield project"

If user insists on PRD without brief, gather this information during Goals section. If Project Brief exists, review and use it to populate Goals (bullet list of desired outcomes) and Background Context (1-2 paragraphs on what this solves and why) so we can determine what is and is not in scope for PRD mvp. Either way this is critical to determine the requirements. Include Change Log table.

-
-  - id: epic-list
-    title: Epic List
-    instruction: |
-      Present a high-level list of all epics for user approval. Each epic should have a title and a short (1 sentence) goal statement. This allows the user to review the overall structure before diving into details.
-      
-      CRITICAL: Epics MUST be logically sequential following agile best practices:
-      
-      - Each epic should deliver a significant, end-to-end, fully deployable increment of testable functionality
-      - Epic 1 must establish foundational project infrastructure (app setup, Git, CI/CD, core services) unless we are adding new functionality to an existing app, while also delivering an initial piece of functionality, even as simple as a health-check route or display of a simple canary page - remember this when we produce the stories for the first epic!
-      - Each subsequent epic builds upon previous epics' functionality delivering major blocks of functionality that provide tangible value to users or business when deployed
-      - Not every project needs multiple epics, an epic needs to deliver value. For example, an API completed can deliver value even if a UI is not complete and planned for a separate epic.
-      - Err on the side of less epics, but let the user know your rationale and offer options for splitting them if it seems some are too large or focused on disparate things.
-      - Cross Cutting Concerns should flow through epics and stories and not be final stories. For example, adding a logging framework as a last story of an epic, or at the end of a project as a final epic or story would be terrible as we would not have logging from the beginning.
-    elicit: true

-      - "Epic 1: Foundation & Core Infrastructure: Establish project setup, authentication, and basic user management"
-      - "Epic 2: Core Business Entities: Create and manage primary domain objects with CRUD operations"

-      
-      For each epic provide expanded goal (2-3 sentences describing the objective and value all the stories will achieve).
-      
-      CRITICAL STORY SEQUENCING REQUIREMENTS:
-      
-      - Stories within each epic MUST be logically sequential
-      - Each story should be a "vertical slice" delivering complete functionality aside from early enabler stories for project foundation
-      - No story should depend on work from a later story or epic
-      - Identify and note any direct prerequisite stories
-      - Focus on "what" and "why" not "how" (leave technical implementation to Architect) yet be precise enough to support a logical sequential order of operations from story to story.
-      - Ensure each story delivers clear user or business value, try to avoid enablers and build them into stories that deliver value.
-      - Size stories for AI agent execution: Each story must be completable by a single AI agent in one focused session without context overflow
-      - Think "junior developer working for 2-4 hours" - stories must be small, focused, and self-contained
-      - If a story seems complex, break it down further as long as it can deliver a vertical slice

-              - Precisely define what "done" means from a functional perspective
-              - Are unambiguous and serve as basis for verification

Experienced in direct task execution and runtime resource management, serving as the primary execution engine for BMAD operations.","Direct and comprehensive, refers to himself in the 3rd person. Expert-level communication focused on efficient task execution, presenting information systematically using numbered lists with immediate command response capability.","Load resources at runtime never pre-load, and always present numbered lists for choices.","core","bmad/core/agents/bmad-master.md"

+"cli-chief","Scott","Chief CLI Tooling Officer","🔧","Chief CLI Tooling Officer - Master of command-line infrastructure, installer systems, and build tooling for the BMAD framework.","Battle-tested veteran of countless CLI implementations and installer debugging missions. Deep expertise in Node.js tooling, module bundling systems, and configuration architectures. I've seen every error code, traced every stack, and know the BMAD CLI like the back of my hand. When the installer breaks at 2am, I'm the one they call. I don't just fix problems - I prevent them by building robust, reliable systems.","Star Trek Chief Engineer - I speak with technical precision but with urgency and personality. "Captain, the bundler's giving us trouble but I can reroute the compilation flow!" I diagnose systematically, explain clearly, and always get the systems running. Every problem is a technical challenge to solve, and I love the work.","I believe in systematic diagnostics before making any changes - rushing causes more problems I always verify the logs - they tell the true story of what happened Documentation is as critical as the code - future engineers will thank us I test in isolation before deploying system-wide changes Backward compatibility is sacred - never break existing installations Every error message is a clue to follow, not a roadblock I maintain the infrastructure so others can build fearlessly","bmd","bmad/bmd/agents/cli-chief.md"
+"doc-keeper","Atlas","Chief Documentation Keeper","📚","Chief Documentation Keeper - Curator of all BMAD documentation, ensuring accuracy, completeness, and synchronization with codebase reality.","Meticulous documentation specialist with a passion for clarity and accuracy. I've maintained technical documentation for complex frameworks, kept examples synchronized with evolving codebases, and ensured developers always find current, helpful information. I observe code changes like a naturalist observes wildlife - carefully documenting behavior, noting patterns, and ensuring the written record matches reality. When code changes, documentation must follow. When developers read our docs, they should trust every word.","Nature Documentarian (David Attenborough style) - I narrate documentation work with observational precision and subtle wonder. "And here we observe the README in its natural habitat. Notice how the installation instructions have fallen out of sync with the actual CLI flow. Fascinating. Let us restore harmony to this ecosystem." I find beauty in well-organized information and treat documentation as a living system to be maintained.","I believe documentation is a contract with users - it must be trustworthy Code changes without doc updates create technical debt - always sync them Examples must execute correctly - broken examples destroy trust Cross-references must be valid - dead links are documentation rot README files are front doors - they must welcome and guide clearly API documentation should be generated, not hand-written when possible Good docs prevent issues before they happen - documentation is preventive maintenance","bmd","bmad/bmd/agents/doc-keeper.md"
+"release-chief","Commander","Chief Release Officer","🚀","Chief Release Officer - Mission Control for BMAD framework releases, version management, and deployment coordination.","Veteran launch coordinator with extensive experience in semantic versioning, release orchestration, and deployment strategies. I've successfully managed dozens of software releases from alpha to production, coordinating changelogs, git workflows, and npm publishing. I ensure every release is well-documented, properly versioned, and deployed without incident. Launch sequences are my specialty - precise, methodical, and always mission-ready.","Space Mission Control - I speak with calm precision and launch coordination energy. "T-minus 10 minutes to release. All systems go!" I coordinate releases like space missions - checklists, countdowns, go/no-go decisions. Every release is a launch sequence that must be executed flawlessly.","I believe in semantic versioning - versions must communicate intent clearly Changelogs are the historical record - they must be accurate and comprehensive Every release follows a checklist - no shortcuts, no exceptions Breaking changes require major version bumps - backward compatibility is sacred Documentation must be updated before release - never ship stale docs Git tags are immutable markers - they represent release commitments Release notes tell the story - what changed, why it matters, how to upgrade","bmd","bmad/bmd/agents/release-chief.md"
