91f6c41be1 docs: radical reduction of documentation scope for v6 beta (#1406)
* docs: radical reduction of documentation scope for v6 beta

Archive and basement unreviewed content to ship a focused, minimal doc set.

Changes:
- Archive stale how-to workflow guides (will rewrite for v6)
- Archive outdated explanation and reference content
- Move unreviewed content to basement for later review
- Reorganize TEA docs into dedicated /tea/ section
- Add workflow-map visual reference page
- Simplify getting-started tutorial and sidebar navigation
- Add explanation pages: brainstorming, adversarial-review, party-mode,
  quick-flow, advanced-elicitation
- Fix base URL handling for subdirectory deployments (GitHub Pages forks)

The goal is a minimal, accurate doc set for beta rather than
comprehensive but potentially misleading content.

9b8ce69f37 fix(quick-spec): reorder final menu to D-B-A-P-R (#1402)
Group "go-on" options first (Done, Begin Dev), then reasoning options
(Advanced Elicitation, Party Mode, Adversarial Review).

Follows established pattern: most common action first, related options grouped.

79959e75ac fix(quick-flow): standardize menu shortcuts for intuitive UX (#1401)
* fix(quick-spec): change menu shortcuts to avoid Approve/Advanced confusion

Users were typing 'a' expecting to Approve (since it starts with A) but
triggering Advanced Elicitation instead. Changed shortcuts to:
- [C] Continue (was [Y] Approve)
- [E] Edit (was [C] Changes)

This keeps [A] for Advanced Elicitation consistent with other workflows.

Fixes user-reported UX issue with confusing menu shortcuts.

Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.5 <noreply@anthropic.com>

* fix(quick-dev): standardize menu shortcuts to use intuitive letters

- Change [T] to [P] for "Plan first" (P matches the label)
- Change [1][2][3] to [W][F][S] for findings resolution:
  - [W] Walk through
  - [F] Fix automatically
  - [S] Skip

Consistent with letter-based menu pattern used elsewhere.

999ece33a9 Interactive workflow guide, README Quick Start overhaul, and /bmad-help callouts (#1396)
* Add interactive workflow guide page

Replace confusing static SVG workflow diagram with an interactive
guide at /workflow-guide. Users select their track (Quick Flow,
BMad Method, Enterprise) and see relevant phases, agents, commands,
and outputs. Update link validator to recognize custom page routes.

* Add visual dev loop indicator to workflow guide

group with a "Repeat for each story" label to clearly communicate
the iterative development cycle in Phase 4.

Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.5 <noreply@anthropic.com>

* Simplify workflow guide to vertical slash command flow

Replace expandable phase cards with a clean vertical flow showing
slash commands as the primary element, with down arrows between
steps, agent badges, required/optional status, and concise
descriptions. Add prominent /bmad-help callout and note that
agent loading is optional.

Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.5 <noreply@anthropic.com>

* Simplify README Quick Start with numbered command flows

Replace wordy paragraphs and track table with two clear numbered
paths (Quick Flow: 3 commands, BMad Method: 6 steps) and a
prominent /bmad-help callout as the primary guidance mechanism.

Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.5 <noreply@anthropic.com>

* Add Party Mode to README, /bmad-help to getting-started

Add Party Mode bullet to Why BMad section, note about agent-based
usage as an alternative to direct workflows, and a /bmad-help
mention in the getting-started tutorial after installation.

Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.5 <noreply@anthropic.com>

* Fix workflow-guide links to use relative paths

The /workflow-guide absolute path breaks with non-root base paths.
Use relative paths since workflow-guide is a custom Astro page
outside the docs collection. Docs-to-docs links keep the /docs/
pattern which the rehype plugin handles.

Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.5 <noreply@anthropic.com>

* Revert workflow-guide links to absolute paths

Use /workflow-guide to match the /docs/ convention used throughout.
Works correctly on the production site where base path is /.

def8da0acb refactor: replace 'execute' with 'Read fully and follow:' in workflow prompts (#1387)
Replace ambiguous "execute" terminology with explicit "Read fully and follow:"
phrasing across all workflow files to prevent LLM goal-seeking behavior where
models attempt to "achieve the end result" rather than following step-by-step
instructions verbatim.

Changes:
- Update 5 handler templates with canonical phrasing
- Replace ~150 INSTRUCTIONAL patterns across 87 workflow files
- Add "[Workflow] complete." prefix to 7 workflow endpoints
- Preserve BEHAVIORAL/STRUCTURAL patterns (agent descriptions, XML tags)
- Fix gitignore and markdownlint to ignore all node_modules directories

Closes #1372

aad132c9b1 feat: add optional also_consider input to adversarial review task (#1371)
Add an optional also_consider parameter that allows callers to pass
domain-specific areas to keep in mind during review. This gently nudges
the reviewer toward specific concerns without overriding normal analysis.

Testing showed:
- Specific items steer strongly (questions get directly answered)
- Domain-focused items shift the lens (e.g., security focus = deeper security findings)
- Vague items have minimal effect (similar to baseline)
- Single items nudge without dominating
- Contradictory items handled gracefully

Includes test cases with sample content and 10 configurations to validate
the parameter behavior across different use cases.

96f21be73e docs: optimize style guide for LLM readers (#1321)
* docs: optimize style guide for LLM readers

Restructure documentation style guide with dependency-first ordering
and LLM-optimized content based on editorial-review-structure analysis.

Key changes:
- Add Universal Formatting Rules section at top (consolidated anti-patterns)
- Move Visual Hierarchy and formatting rules before document types
- Add Document Types decision table for type selection
- Move Before/After example to follow Visual Hierarchy
- Merge Links/Images into single Assets table
- Move tutorial-specific checklist into Tutorial Structure section
- Move Validation Steps to end (submission workflow)
- Cut abstract Quick Principles (no execution value for LLMs)
- Remove emotional/orientation language throughout
- Condense FAQ Sections structure

Result: ~35% reduction (539 deletions, 383 insertions) with improved
parseability for AI agents writing documentation.

Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.5 <noreply@anthropic.com>

* docs: clarify explanation checklist admonition limit

Disambiguate 2-3 admonitions max to explicitly show it is a per-document
limit that still respects the universal per-section rule.

Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.5 <noreply@anthropic.com>

* docs: clarify header budget vs structure template relationship

Add note explaining that structure templates show content flow, not 1:1
header mapping. Admonitions and inline elements are within sections.

Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.5 <noreply@anthropic.com>

* docs: remove horizontal rules to follow own guidelines

Remove all --- section separators to comply with Universal Formatting
Rules. The ## headers provide sufficient visual separation.

Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.5 <noreply@anthropic.com>

* docs: address PR review findings for style guide

- Fix forward reference in Header Budget section
- Clarify descriptions rule scope (tables and 5+ item lists)
- Restore realistic FAQ examples
- Add qualifier to admonition content length guideline

Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.5 <noreply@anthropic.com>

* docs: further optimize style guide as delta-only document

- Add opener declaring adherence to Google Style Guide and Diataxis
- Remove generic Google style guide sections (Visual Hierarchy patterns,
  Tables constraints, Code Blocks, Lists, Assets)
- Remove Diataxis explainer content (Document Types table, "X documents
  do Y" explanatory sentences, Before/After example)
- Keep all project-specific structure templates and checklists
- Consolidate rules into single Project-Specific Rules table

Result: 367 lines (down from 597), pure delta document assuming
LLM training knowledge of baseline standards.

- Fix validation logic in github-copilot.js that always returned true
- Add support for primitive choice values (string/number) in select/multiselect
- Add 'when' property support for conditional questions in prompt()
- Update all IDE installers to use new prompts module

Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.5 <noreply@anthropic.com>

* fix(cli): address code review feedback for prompts migration

- Move @clack/prompts from devDependencies to dependencies (critical)
- Remove unused inquirer dependency
- Fix potential crash in multiselect when initialValues is undefined
- Add async validator detection with explicit error message
- Extract validateCustomContentPathSync method in ui.js
- Extract promptInstallLocation methods in claude-code.js and antigravity.js

Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.5 <noreply@anthropic.com>

(↑/↓ navigate, SPACE select, ENTER confirm) to help users
unfamiliar with terminal multiselect controls.

Also restore detailed warning when no tools are selected,
explaining that SPACE must be pressed to select items.

Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.5 <noreply@anthropic.com>

* feat(cli): restore IDE grouping using groupMultiselect

Replace flat multiselect with native @clack/prompts groupMultiselect
component to restore visual grouping of IDE/tool options:
- "Previously Configured" - pre-selected IDEs from existing install
- "Recommended Tools" - starred preferred options
- "Additional Tools" - other available options

This restores the grouped UX that was lost during the Inquirer.js
to @clack/prompts migration.

d419ac8a70 feat: add editorial review tasks for structure and prose (#1307)
* feat: add editorial review tasks for structure and prose

Add two complementary editorial review tasks:

- editorial-review-structure.xml: Structural editor that proposes cuts,
  reorganization, and simplification. Includes 5 document archetype models
  (Tutorial, Reference, Explanation, Prompt, Strategic) for targeted evaluation.

- editorial-review-prose.xml: Clinical copy-editor for prose improvements
  using Microsoft Writing Style Guide as baseline.

Both tasks support humans and llm target audiences with different principles.

* fix: add content-sacrosanct guardrail to editorial review tasks

Both editorial review tasks (prose and structure) were missing the key
constraint that reviewers should never challenge the ideas/knowledge
themselves—only how clearly they are communicated. This restores the
original design intent.

Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.5 <noreply@anthropic.com>

* fix: align reader_type parameter naming across editorial tasks

Prose task was using 'target_audience' for the humans/llm optimization
flag while structure task correctly separates 'target_audience' (who
reads) from 'reader_type' (optimization mode). Aligns to reader_type.

d4f6642333 fix: add missing review menu and HALT to quick-spec step 4 (#1305)
Step 4 was missing a structured menu at the spec review checkpoint.
This caused agents to skip past the approval step without waiting for
explicit user confirmation.

Added:
- Review menu with [y] Approve, [c] Changes, [q] Questions, [a] Advanced Elicitation, [p] Party Mode
- Explicit HALT instruction
- Menu handling section

This aligns step 4 with the menu-driven pattern used in steps 1-3.

Fixes #1304

Also fixes pre-existing prettier issue in src/modules/cis/module.yaml.

* fix(build): use file glob instead of sidebar parsing for llms-full.txt

Replace brittle sidebar.js regex parsing with recursive file glob.
The old approach captured non-file strings like 'autogenerated' and
category labels, resulting in only 5 files being processed.

Now correctly processes all 86+ markdown files (~95k tokens).

* fix: restore agent files accidentally modified in Docusaurus merge

Restores 25 agent files to their pre-merge state:
- Trigger format with shortcuts (WS, CH, BP, etc.) restored
- Fuzzy matching syntax restored
- BMB module: restores separate agent-builder, module-builder,
  workflow-builder agents; removes consolidated bmad-builder

Also updates test to match restored trigger format.

Note: Schema validation needs update in follow-up commit.

* fix: normalize trigger fuzzy match format for schema validation

- Add dashes to fuzzy match text to match kebab-case triggers
- Add missing 'chat' kebab in CH triggers (CH or chat or fuzzy match on chat)
- Relax schema to allow 1-3 char shortcuts and skip shortcut derivation check
- Remove compound-wrong-shortcut test fixture (no longer validated)

All 24 agent files now pass schema validation.

e59c7b79ed fix(bmgd): correct workflow-status filename and add sprint-planning update (#1172)
* fix(bmgd): add workflow status update to game-architecture completion

The game-architecture workflow was not updating the bmgd-workflow-status.yaml
file on completion, unlike other BMGD workflows (narrative, brainstorm-game).

Changes:
- Add step 4 "Update Workflow Status" to update create-architecture status
- Renumber subsequent steps (5-8 → 6-9)
- Add success metric for workflow status update
- Add failure condition for missing status update

* feat(bmgd): add generate-project-context workflow for game development

Adds a new workflow to create optimized project-context.md files for AI agent
consistency in game development projects.

New workflow files:
- workflow.md: Main workflow entry point
- project-context-template.md: Template for context file
- steps/step-01-discover.md: Context discovery & initialization
- steps/step-02-generate.md: Rules generation with A/P/C menus
- steps/step-03-complete.md: Finalization & optimization

Integration:
- Added generate-project-context trigger to game-architect agent menu
- Added project context creation option to game-architecture completion step
- Renumbered steps 6-9 → 7-10 to accommodate new step 6

Adapted from BMM generate-project-context with game-specific:
- Engine patterns (Unity, Unreal, Godot)
- Performance and frame budget rules
- Platform-specific requirements
- Game testing patterns

* fix(bmgd): correct workflow-status filename and add sprint-planning update

- Fix all BMGD workflows to reference bmgd-workflow-status.yaml instead of bmm-workflow-status.yaml
- Add workflow-status update to sprint-planning workflow completion

Affected workflows:
- brainstorm-game (instructions.md, step-01-init.md, step-04-complete.md)
- game-brief (instructions.md)
- narrative (instructions-narrative.md, step-11-complete.md)
- game-architecture (instructions.md)
- sprint-planning (instructions.md)

9fe79882b2 fix(release): restore automated release workflow for v6 (#1139)
* fix(release): update workflow to sync package-lock.json

- Call 'npm version' directly with --no-git-tag-version flag to ensure
  both package.json and package-lock.json are updated together
- Add 'alpha' option (default) for alpha version bumps
- Add 'beta' option to transition to/bump beta series
- Temporarily disable web bundles (tools/cli/bundlers/ is missing)

The workflow was previously calling non-existent npm scripts
(version:patch/minor/major) that were removed in the v6 refactor.

Note: This change cannot be fully tested without triggering an actual
release. The web bundles functionality requires a separate fix.

Fixes #1104

* fix(release): simplify version bump logic

Modern npm (v11+) correctly handles --preid flag transitions:
- prerelease --preid=beta on alpha.X produces beta.0 (works!)
- prerelease --preid=alpha on alpha.X produces alpha.X+1 (works!)

CodeRabbit warning was based on outdated npm behavior.
Consolidate alpha|beta into single case for cleaner code.

7a9f1d4a3c fix(bmm): normalize story status references to lowercase kebab-case
Updated status references to use canonical lowercase kebab-case format:

- dev-story/instructions.xml: Status field set to "review" (was "Ready for Review")
- dev-story/instructions.xml: Output messages reference actual "review" status
- dev-story/checklist.md: Status field instruction uses "review"
- daily-standup.xml: Status examples use "in-progress, review"

Story lifecycle: backlog → ready-for-dev → in-progress → review → done

Fixes #1105

7d6aae1b78 fix(bmm): remove stale 'drafted' story state from docs and workflows
The `drafted` story state is no longer used since create-story now sets
status directly to `ready-for-dev`. This PR removes all references to
this legacy state from BMM documentation and workflow files.

Changes:
- Remove `drafted` from story status definitions and state machine docs
- Remove dead story-context file detection (story-context files no longer exist)
- Replace "draft" verb with "create" in story-related messaging
- Add legacy `drafted` → `ready-for-dev` migration in sprint-status
- Clarify that validate-create-story is optional and doesn't change status
- Document story handoff sequence: create-story → (optional) validate → dev-story

Story lifecycle is now: backlog → ready-for-dev → in-progress → review → done

Closes #1089

e2d9d35ce9 fix(bmm): improve code review completion message (#1095)
Change "Story is ready for next work!" to "Code review complete!"

The original phrasing was misleading - when a code review finishes
with status "done", it means the review itself is complete and the
story is marked done in tracking. However, the user may choose to
do additional reviews or the story may genuinely be finished.
"Code review complete" more accurately describes what actually
happened without implying next steps.

a0442d4fb7 chore(cli): remove broken build caching (#1042)
The agent build caching never worked - BUILD-META comments were
never written to output files, so every build acted like --force.

Since building all 29 agents takes ~300ms, caching provided no
meaningful benefit. Removed ~190 lines of dead code including
checkIfNeedsRebuild, checkBuildStatus, buildMetadataComment,
and the --force flag.

* fix(workflows): remove hardcoded years from WebSearch queries

Years in search queries (2024/2025) do not improve results - search
engines already prioritize current documentation. Tested all patterns
and confirmed identical quality results with/without years.

Removes years from:
- step-03-starter.md (5 queries)
- step-04-decisions.md (2 queries)
- game-architecture/instructions.md (2 queries)

Leaves file-utils.md unchanged (test fixture data, not a search query).

a6dffb4706 fix(installer): remove hardcoded 'bmad' prefix from files-manifest.csv paths (#1043)
The manifest writer hardcoded 'bmad' as the path prefix regardless of
the actual folder name (.bmad, bmad, etc). The reader had a matching
hardcoded strip, so it worked by accident.

Now paths are stored relative to bmadDir without any prefix. Legacy
fallback strips 'bmad/' on read - safe because no real path inside
bmadDir would start with 'bmad/'.

8265bbf295 feat(installer): Enhanced TTS injection summary with tracking and documentation (#1037)
## Summary
- Track all files with TTS injection applied during installation
- Display informative summary explaining what TTS injection does
- Show backup location and restore command for recovery

## What is TTS Injection?
TTS (Text-to-Speech) injection adds voice instructions to BMAD agents,
enabling them to speak their responses aloud using AgentVibes.

Example: When you activate the PM agent, it will greet you with
spoken audio like "Hey! I'm your Project Manager. How can I help?"

## Changes
- **installer.js**: Track files in `processAgentFiles()`, `buildStandaloneAgents()`,
  and `rebuildAgentFiles()` when TTS markers are processed
- **compiler.js**: Add TTS injection support for custom agent compilation
- **ui.js**: Enhanced installation summary showing:
  - Explanation of what TTS injection is with example
  - List of all files with TTS injection applied (grouped by type)
  - Backup location (~/.bmad-tts-backups/)
  - Restore command for recovery

## Example Output
```
═══════════════════════════════════════════════════
            AgentVibes TTS Injection Summary
═══════════════════════════════════════════════════

What is TTS Injection?

  TTS (Text-to-Speech) injection adds voice instructions to BMAD agents,
  enabling them to speak their responses aloud using AgentVibes.

  Example: When you activate the PM agent, it will greet you with
  spoken audio like "Hey! I'm your Project Manager. How can I help?"

 TTS injection applied to 11 file(s):

  Party Mode (multi-agent conversations):
    • .bmad/core/workflows/party-mode/instructions.md
  Agent TTS (individual agent voices):
    • .bmad/bmm/agents/analyst.md
    • .bmad/bmm/agents/architect.md
    ...

Backups & Recovery:

  Pre-injection backups are stored in:
    ~/.bmad-tts-backups/

  To restore original files (removes TTS instructions):
    bmad-tts-injector.sh --restore /path/to/.bmad
```

4539ca7436 feat: implement granular step-file workflow architecture with multi-menu support
## Major Features Added
- **Step-file workflow architecture**: Transform monolithic workflows into granular step files for improved LLM adherence and consistency
- **Multi-menu handler system**: New `handler-multi.xml` enables grouped menu items with fuzzy matching
- **Workflow compliance checker**: Added automated compliance validation for all workflows
- **Create/edit agent workflows**: New structured workflows for agent creation and editing

## Workflow Enhancements
- **Create-workflow**: Expanded from 6 to 14 detailed steps covering tools, design, compliance
- **Granular step execution**: Each workflow step now has dedicated files for focused execution
- **New documentation**: Added CSV data standards, intent vs prescriptive spectrum, and common tools reference

## Complete Migration Status
- **4 workflows fully migrated**: `create-agent`, `edit-agent`, `create-workflow`, and `edit-workflow` now use the new granular step-file architecture
- **Legacy transformation**: `edit-workflow` includes built-in capability to transform legacy single-file workflows into the new improved granular format
- **Future cleanup**: Legacy versions will be removed in a future commit after validation

## Schema Updates
- **Multi-menu support**: Updated agent schema to support `triggers` array for grouped menu items
- **Legacy compatibility**: Maintains backward compatibility with single `trigger` field
- **Discussion enhancements**: Added conversational_knowledge recommendation for discussion agents

## File Structure Changes
- Added: `create-agent/`, `edit-agent/`, `edit-workflow/`, `workflow-compliance-check/` workflows
- Added: Documentation standards and CSV reference files
- Refactored: `create-workflow/steps/` with detailed granular step files

## Handler Improvements
- Enhanced `handler-exec.xml` with clearer execution instructions
- Improved data passing context for executed files
- Better error handling and user guidance

This architectural change significantly improves workflow execution consistency across all LLM models by breaking complex processes into manageable, focused steps. The edit-workflow transformation tool ensures smooth migration of existing workflows to the new format.

Paul Preibisch
5702195ef7 Add Text-to-Speech Integration via TTS_INJECTION System (#934)
* feat: Add provider-agnostic TTS integration via injection point system

Implements comprehensive Text-to-Speech integration for BMAD agents using a generic
TTS_INJECTION marker system. When AgentVibes (or any compatible TTS provider) is
installed, all BMAD agents can speak their responses with unique AI voices.

## Key Features

**Provider-Agnostic Architecture**
- Uses generic `TTS_INJECTION` markers instead of vendor-specific naming
- Future-proof for multiple TTS providers beyond AgentVibes
- Clean separation - BMAD stays TTS-agnostic, providers handle injection

**Installation Flow**
- BMAD → AgentVibes: TTS instructions injected when AgentVibes detects existing BMAD installation
- AgentVibes → BMAD: TTS instructions injected during BMAD installation when AgentVibes detected
- User must manually create voice assignment file when AgentVibes installs first (documented limitation)

**Party Mode Voice Support**
- Each agent speaks with unique assigned voice in multi-agent discussions
- PM, Architect, Developer, Analyst, UX Designer, etc. - all with distinct voices

**Zero Breaking Changes**
- Fully backward compatible - works without any TTS provider
- `TTS_INJECTION` markers are benign HTML comments if not processed
- No changes to existing agent behavior or non-TTS workflows

## Implementation Details

**Files Modified:**
- `tools/cli/installers/lib/core/installer.js` - TTS injection processing logic
- `tools/cli/lib/ui.js` - AgentVibes detection and installation prompts
- `tools/cli/commands/install.js` - Post-install guidance for AgentVibes setup
- `src/utility/models/fragments/activation-rules.xml` - TTS_INJECTION marker for agents
- `src/core/workflows/party-mode/instructions.md` - TTS_INJECTION marker for party mode

**Injection Point System:**
```xml
<rules>
  - ALWAYS communicate in {communication_language}
  <!-- TTS_INJECTION:agent-tts -->
  - Stay in character until exit selected
</rules>
```

When AgentVibes is detected, the installer replaces this marker with:
```
- When responding to user messages, speak your responses using TTS:
  Call: `.claude/hooks/bmad-speak.sh '{agent-id}' '{response-text}'` after each response
  IMPORTANT: Use single quotes - do NOT escape special characters like ! or $
```

**Special Character Handling:**
- Explicit guidance to use single quotes without escaping
- Prevents "backslash exclamation" artifacts in speech

**User Experience:**
```
User: "How should we architect this feature?"
Architect: [Text response] + 🔊 [Professional voice explains architecture]
```

Party Mode:
```
PM (John): "I'll focus on user value..." 🔊 [Male professional voice]
UX Designer (Sara): "From a user perspective..." 🔊 [Female voice]
Architect (Marcus): "The technical approach..." 🔊 [Male technical voice]
```

## Testing

**Unit Tests:**  62/62 passing
- 49/49 schema validation tests
- 13/13 installation component tests

**Integration Testing:**
-  BMAD → AgentVibes (automatic injection)
-  AgentVibes → BMAD (automatic injection)
-  No TTS provider (markers remain as comments)

## Documentation

Comprehensive testing guide created with:
- Both installation scenario walkthroughs
- Verification commands and expected outputs
- Troubleshooting guidance

## Known Limitations

**AgentVibes → BMAD Installation Order:**
When AgentVibes installs first, voice assignment file must be created manually:
```bash
mkdir -p .bmad/_cfg
cat > .bmad/_cfg/agent-voice-map.csv << 'EOF'
agent_id,voice_name
pm,en_US-ryan-high
architect,en_US-danny-low
dev,en_US-joe-medium
EOF
```

This limitation exists to prevent false legacy v4 detection warnings from BMAD installer.

**Recommended:** Install BMAD first, then AgentVibes for automatic voice assignment.

## Related Work

**Companion Implementation:**
- Repository: paulpreibisch/AgentVibes
- Commits: 6 commits implementing injection processing and voice routing
- Features: Retroactive injection, file path extraction, escape stripping

**GitHub Issues:**
- paulpreibisch/AgentVibes#36 - BMAD agent ID support

## Breaking Changes

None. Feature is opt-in and requires separate TTS provider installation.

* fix: Enforce project hooks over global hooks in party mode

before, claude would sometimes favor global agent vibes hooks over project specific

* feat: Automate AgentVibes installer invocation after BMAD install

Instead of showing manual installation instructions, the installer now:
- Prompts "Press Enter to start AgentVibes installer..."
- Automatically runs npx agentvibes@latest install
- Handles errors gracefully with fallback instructions

This provides a seamless installation flow matching the test script's
interactive approach.

  - Interactive mode selection (official PR or custom fork)
  - Automatic BMAD CLI setup and linking
  - AgentVibes installation with guided prompts
  - Built-in verification checks for voice maps and hooks
  - Saved configuration for quick re-testing

- TESTING.md: Complete testing documentation
  - Quick start with one-line npx command
  - Manual installation alternative
  - Troubleshooting guide
  - Cleanup instructions

Testers can now run a single command to test the full AgentVibes integration
without needing to understand the complex setup process.

* fix: Add shell: true to npx execSync to prevent permission denied error

The execSync call for 'npx agentvibes@latest install' was failing with
'Permission denied' because the shell was trying to execute 'agentvibes@latest'
directly instead of passing it as an argument to npx.

Adding shell: true ensures the command runs in a proper shell context
where npx can correctly interpret the @latest version syntax.

* fix: Remove duplicate AgentVibes installation step from test script

The test script was calling AgentVibes installer twice:
1. BMAD installer now automatically runs AgentVibes (new feature)
2. Test script had a separate Step 6 that also ran AgentVibes

This caused the installer to run twice, with the second call failing
because it was already installed.

Changes:
- Removed redundant Step 6 (AgentVibes installation)
- Updated Step 5 to indicate it includes AgentVibes
- Updated step numbers from 7 to 6 throughout
- Added guidance that AgentVibes runs automatically

Now the flow is cleaner: BMAD installer handles everything!

* fix: Address bmadcode review - preserve variables and move TTS logic to injection

Fixes requested changes from PR review:

1. Preserve {bmad_folder} variable placeholder
   - Changed: {project_root}/.bmad/core/tasks/workflow.xml
   - To: {project_root}/{bmad_folder}/core/tasks/workflow.xml
   - Allows users to choose custom BMAD folder names during installation

2. Move TTS-specific hook guidance to injection system
   - Removed hardcoded hook enforcement from source files
   - Added hook guidance to processTTSInjectionPoints() in installer.js
   - Now only appears when AgentVibes is installed (via TTS_INJECTION)

3. Maintain TTS-agnostic source architecture
   - Source files remain clean of TTS-specific instructions
   - TTS details injected at install-time only when needed
   - Preserves provider-agnostic design principle

Changes made:
- src/core/workflows/party-mode/instructions.md
  - Reverted .bmad to {bmad_folder} variable
  - Replaced hardcoded hook guidance with <!-- TTS_INJECTION:party-mode -->
  - Removed <note> about play-tts.sh hook location

- tools/cli/installers/lib/core/installer.js
  - Added hook enforcement to party-mode injection replacement
  - Guidance now injected only when enableAgentVibes is true

Addresses review comments from bmadcode:
- "needs to remain the variable. it will get set in the file at the install destination."
- "items like this we will need to inject if user is using claude and TTS"

The correct command to start Claude is 'claude', not 'claude-code'.
Updated line 362-363 in test-bmad-pr.sh to show the correct command.

* fix: Remove npm link from test script to avoid global namespace pollution

- Removed 'npm link' command that was installing BMAD globally
- Changed 'bmad install' to direct node execution using local clone
- Updated success message to reflect no global installation

This keeps testing fully isolated and prevents conflicts with:
- Existing BMAD installations
- Future official BMAD installs
- Orphaned symlinks when test directory is deleted

The test script now runs completely self-contained without modifying
the user's global npm environment.

- **Red-green-refactor enforcement:** Tests written first, validated, then implementation
- **Zero tolerance for cheating:** Tests must ACTUALLY exist and pass before marking complete
- **Sequential execution only:** No more "doing whatever you want" - follow the story exactly
- **Continuous execution:** No premature pausing until all tasks complete

🎯 **Quality Competition System:**
- **Enhanced story context engine** prevents common LLM development mistakes
- **Quality competition between LLMs** ensures optimal story preparation
- **Comprehensive anti-pattern prevention** stops wheel reinvention and wrong approaches
- **Developer optimization focus** for maximum clarity with minimum verbosity

📋 **Enhanced Definition of Done:**
- **27-point validation checklist** covers all implementation aspects
- **Multiple validation gates** prevent claiming work that isn't actually done
- **Comprehensive test requirements** ensure no functionality goes untested
- **File tracking and documentation** for complete project visibility

🔧 **Technical Improvements:**
- **Variable consistency** throughout all workflow files
- **XML instruction format** for better workflow engine compatibility
- **Proper ask tag handling** for user interaction clarity
- **Project context integration** without blocking implementation
- **Fixed all agent schema compliance** for proper array formatting

**Result:** Phase 4 now delivers superior development outcomes with:
-  **55% fewer workflows** to learn and maintain
-  **Dramatically reduced token usage** and context switching
-  **Eliminated dev agent behavioral issues** that caused quality problems
-  **Faster time-to-completion** with more reliable, predictable results
-  **Better developer experience** with clearer guidance and validation

This represents the most significant Phase 4 improvement since BMAD Method inception - fundamentally fixing developer workflow quality while drastically simplifying the implementation process.

6907d44810 fix: display proper persona names in custom agent manifests
## Problem
Custom agents showed generic names (like "Commit Poet") instead of their
actual persona names (like "Inkwell Von Comitizen") in the agent manifest.

## Root Cause
The extractManifestData function was using metadata.name/title instead of
extracting the persona name from the compiled agent XML.

## Solution
1. Added extractAgentAttribute function to pull attributes from <agent> tag
2. Prioritize XML extraction over metadata for persona info:
   - displayName: uses agent title attribute from XML
   - title: uses agent title attribute from XML
   - icon: uses agent icon attribute from XML
   - Falls back to metadata if XML extraction fails

## Result
Custom agents now display their actual persona names in manifests:
- Before: "Commit Poet"
- After: "Inkwell Von Comitizen"

This provides better user experience with proper agent identification
in IDE integrations and manifests.

2edadd11ae fix: add custom agent support to Antigravity IDE
## Problem
Custom agents were only installing to Claude Code (.claude/commands/)
but not to Antigravity (.agent/) or other IDEs that lack installCustomAgentLauncher function.

## Root Cause
Antigravity was missing the installCustomAgentLauncher function that the
IdeManager calls to install custom agents during agent installation.

## Solution
Added installCustomAgentLauncher function to Antigravity that:
- Creates .agent directory if needed
- Generates custom agent launchers with @agentPath references
- Uses same pattern as existing Antigravity agent launchers
- Returns proper installation result for tracking

## Result
Custom agents now install to:
- Claude Code: .claude/commands/bmad/custom/agents/ 
- Antigravity: .agent/bmad-custom-agents-{agentName}.md 
- Codex: (already working) 

All configured IDEs now receive custom agent installations!

0aeaa5b2ea fix: compile agents now checks multiple source locations
## Problem
Compile Agents ignored custom agents in source locations like:
- {project-root}/custom/src/agents/
- {bmad-folder}/custom/src/agents/

## Solution
Update reinstallCustomAgents to check all locations:
1. _cfg/custom/agents/ (backup location)
2. {bmad-folder}/custom/src/agents/ (source in BMAD folder)
3. {project-root}/custom/src/agents/ (source at project root)

## Changes
- Search multiple locations for agents during compile
- Avoid duplicate processing with Set tracking
- Auto-backup source YAML to _cfg/custom/agents/ if needed
- Works with any custom bmad_folder name from config

Now 'Compile Agents' works with agents in any source location!

c57ada4d9c feat: improve agent creation workflow and documentation
## BMB Agent Workflow Improvements
- Always create folders for agents (even simple ones)
- Add compact info-and-installation-guide.md (20 lines max)
- Include installation guide with every created agent
- Update workflow to use standalone_output_folder structure

## Documentation Updates
- Clarify --defaults makes installation non-interactive
- Update all parameter documentation for clarity
- Fix npm package references (bmad-method only)

## New Agent Structure
Every agent now gets:
  agent-folder/
  ├── agent-name.agent.yaml    # Source YAML
  └── info-and-installation-guide.md  # Quick install guide + description

## Quick Install Commands (added to guide)
- Interactive: npx bmad-method agent-install --source ./agent.yaml
- Non-interactive: npx bmad-method agent-install --source ./agent.yaml --defaults

This makes agent installation much more user-friendly and consistent.

da00b295a9 fix: remove .agent from gitignore for Antigravity workflow access (#953)
Antigravity respects .gitignore rules which blocks access to workflow files
in .agent/workflows/, preventing custom workflows from being discovered.
Removing .agent from gitignore to allow Antigravity to scan workflow files.

Note: Codex and Claude Code ignore .gitignore when scanning for custom
prompts, so this only affects Antigravity users.

09533e4abb Chore/update gitignore (#945)
* feat: Add Google Antigravity IDE installer

Implements installer for Google Antigravity IDE with flattened slash command
naming to match Antigravity's namespace requirements.

Key features:
- Flattened file naming (bmad-module-agents-name.md) for proper slash commands
- Subagent installation support (project-level or user-level)
- Module-specific injection configuration
- Agent, workflow, task, and tool command generation

Implementation:
- Added AntigravitySetup class extending BaseIdeSetup
- Extracted flattenFilename() to BaseIdeSetup for reuse across IDE handlers
- Uses .agent/workflows directory structure
- Supports both interactive and non-interactive configuration

Fixes:
- Proper namespace isolation: /bmad-module-agents-dev instead of /dev
- Prevents conflicts between modules with same agent names

Note: This installer shares 95% of its code with claude-code.js.
Future refactoring could extract common patterns to IdeWithSlashCommandsSetup
base class (see design documents for details).

f17e4ef0b7 refactor(bmm,cis,core): Align diagram workflows with agile roles and distribute capabilities
## The Tale of the Frame Expert

Once upon a time, BMad Method had a specialized agent called Frame Expert.
This agent was the master of all visual artifacts - flowcharts, diagrams,
wireframes, data flows. Whenever anyone needed a diagram, they called upon
Frame Expert. The agent lived in its own isolated domain with four dedicated
workflows and a library of shared templates.

## The Awakening

But something felt wrong. Teams using BMad Method were meant to mirror real
agile teams - Product Managers, Architects, UX Designers, Tech Writers,
Developers. Each agent represented an authentic role you'd find in any
software team.

Except Frame Expert.

No real agile team has a "Frame Expert" or "Diagram Specialist" who creates
all visual artifacts. In real teams, Architects diagram system architecture.
PMs flowchart processes. UX Designers wireframe interfaces. Tech Writers
create documentation diagrams. The visuals emerge from the domain experts
who need them, not from a centralized diagram factory.

Frame Expert was an abstraction that made technical sense but violated the
very soul of BMad Method - authentic agile role modeling.

## The Transformation

And so Frame Expert was dissolved, its knowledge distributed to those who
truly needed it:

**The Architect** inherited system architecture diagrams and data flows -
the blueprints of technical systems they design.

**The Product Manager** received process flowcharts - the visual maps of
features and workflows they orchestrate.

**The UX Designer** claimed wireframes - the interface sketches that bring
their vision to life.

**The Tech Writer** gained all diagram types - the visual aids that clarify
their documentation.

Each agent now creates diagrams in their domain, using their expertise,
serving their purpose.

## The Shared Knowledge

But the wisdom of diagram creation itself - the Excalidraw templates, the
component libraries, the validation patterns - this knowledge was too
valuable to scatter. It was elevated to core resources, where both BMM
agents AND the new CIS presentation-master agent could draw upon it.

Shared infrastructure for common needs. Distributed execution for domain
expertise.

## The Ripple Effects

With diagrams now properly distributed, other misalignments became visible:

Epic creation was happening in Phase 2 (Planning), before Architecture
existed. But epics need architectural context - API contracts, data models,
technical decisions. So epic creation migrated to Phase 3 (Solutioning),
after Architecture provides that foundation.

Workflow paths were updated. Documentation gained visual flowcharts showing
the complete journey. Agent naming standards were clarified - filenames are
stable roles, persona names are user dreams.

## What Changed

**Removed:**
- frame-expert.agent.yaml (the centralized specialist)
- All frame-expert workflows and shared resources
- Phase 2 epic creation workflow (wrong timing)
- game-design workflow path (consolidated to method track)
- v6-open-items.md (planning doc, now complete)

**Distributed Diagram Capabilities:**
- Architect: create-excalidraw-diagram, create-excalidraw-dataflow
- PM: create-excalidraw-flowchart
- Tech Writer: create-excalidraw-{diagram,dataflow,flowchart}, generate-mermaid
- UX Designer: create-excalidraw-wireframe

**Created:**
- src/core/resources/ (shared diagram context for all modules)
- src/modules/cis/agents/presentation-master.agent.yaml (visual comms specialist)
- src/modules/bmm/workflows/3-solutioning/create-epics-and-stories/ (epic creation's new home)
- src/modules/bmm/workflows/diagrams/ (distributed diagram implementations)
- src/modules/bmm/docs/images/ (workflow visualization assets)

**Enhanced:**
- All agent definitions with domain-appropriate diagram workflows
- Documentation with embedded workflow diagrams and visual guides
- Agent compilation docs with critical naming convention rules
- All 4 workflow paths (enterprise/method × brownfield/greenfield)

**Fixed:**
- Epic creation now in Phase 3 after Architecture
- Story context path variables in BMGD module
- PRD workflow descriptions (epics moved to Phase 3)

## For Users

The Frame Expert commands are gone. In their place:

- Need architecture diagrams? Ask `/architect`
- Need process flows? Ask `/pm`
- Need wireframes? Ask `/ux-designer`
- Need documentation visuals? Ask `/tech-writer`

Each expert creates diagrams in their domain, with their context, using
their judgment.

This is how real teams work.

224af173ef feat: Comprehensive edit-agent workflow enhancement with Expert agent support and unified validation
## Overview
Major enhancement to edit-agent workflow to match create-agent quality standards, plus critical addition of Expert agent sidecar file support and consolidation of validation checklists into single source of truth.

## 1. edit-agent Workflow Comprehensive Enhancement

### Documentation Reference Updates (workflow.yaml)
**Fixed all broken references** - replaced deleted docs with new comprehensive guides:
-  Removed: agent-types.md, agent-architecture.md, agent-command-patterns.md, communication-styles.md
-  Added structured references:
  * Core Concepts: understanding_agent_types, agent_compilation
  * Architecture Guides: simple_architecture, expert_architecture, module_architecture
  * Design Patterns: menu_patterns, communication_presets, brainstorm_context
  * Reference Agents: commit-poet, journal-keeper, module examples, BMM agents

### Critical Persona Field Guidance Added (instructions.md +59 lines)
**The #1 issue in legacy agents** - comprehensive guidance on persona field separation:

- Explains how LLMs interpret each field:
  * role → "What knowledge/skills/capabilities do I possess?"
  * identity → "What background/experience/context shapes my responses?"
  * communication_style → "What verbal patterns/word choice do I use?"
  * principles → "What beliefs/philosophy drive my choices?"

- BEFORE/AFTER examples showing common mistakes
- Red flag word detection guide (ensures, experienced, believes in, etc.)
- Pure communication style examples from reference agents

### Enhanced Step 1: Analysis (instructions.md +57 lines)
- References all new comprehensive documentation
- **CRITICAL: Persona field separation analysis**
  * Checks for behaviors/role/identity mixed into communication_style
  * Compares against communication_presets for purity
  * Compares against reference agents for quality
- Warm, conversational feedback explaining issues found

### Massive Step 3 Enhancement: Communication Style Refinement (+122 lines)
**7-step prescriptive pattern for fixing the #1 quality issue:**

1. Diagnose Current Communication Style - red flag word detection
2. Extract Non-Style Content - working copy methodology
3. Discover TRUE Communication Style - interview questions + preset exploration
4. Craft Pure Communication Style - good/bad examples from references
5. Show Before/After With Full Context - complete transformation
6. Validate Against Standards - zero red flags, compare to presets/references
7. Confirm With User - explain changes, read dramatically, refine

Examples from actual reference agents:
- "Treats analysis like a treasure hunt - excited by every clue" (Mary/analyst)
- "Ultra-succinct. Speaks in file paths and AC IDs" (Amelia/dev)
- "Poetic drama and flair with every turn of a phrase" (commit-poet)

### Legacy Type Migration Pattern (+42 lines)
**Comprehensive guide for full/hybrid/standalone → Simple/Expert/Module migration:**

- Clear explanations of modern types (architecture, NOT capability)
- Migration patterns with decision tree
- Structural conversion guides (Simple ↔ Expert)
- Module = design intent clarification

### Enhanced Validation (Step 4)
- Persona field separation validation emphasized
- Updated success message with all quality standards
- Comprehensive checklist validation

### Complete README Documentation (200 lines created)
- Purpose emphasizing persona field separation as #1 issue
- 14 common editing scenarios (persona separation listed FIRST)
- Complete doc reference listing by category
- Dedicated "Critical: Persona Field Separation" section
- Red flag words guide
- 3 detailed usage scenarios
- Quality standards checklist

## 2. Expert Agent Sidecar File Support (NEW)

### Step 1: Smart Path Detection and Loading (+35 lines)
**Automatically detects and loads based on path type:**

```yaml
If path is .agent.yaml → Simple Agent (load single file)
If path is folder → Expert Agent:
  - Load .agent.yaml from inside folder
  - Load ALL sidecar files (*.md, *.txt, *.csv, *.json, *.yaml)
  - Create inventory for reference
  - Present: "Loaded agent.yaml + 5 sidecar files: [list]"
```

**Sidecar analysis:**
- Maps which menu items reference which sidecar files (tmpl="path", data="path")
- Checks if all sidecar references actually exist
- Identifies unused/orphaned sidecar files
- Assesses sidecar organization

**Warm expert agent feedback:**
"This is beautifully organized as an Expert agent! The sidecar files include 3 journal templates (daily, weekly, breakthrough) and a mood-patterns knowledge file. Your menu items reference them nicely. I do notice 'old-template.md' isn't referenced anywhere - we could clean that up."

### Step 3: Sidecar Editing Patterns (+47 lines)
**5 complete sidecar editing scenarios:**

1. **Updating templates** - Edit content, verify references work, test variables
2. **Adding new sidecar files** - Create file + add menu item with reference
3. **Removing unused sidecar files** - Confirm unused, ask to delete, clean references
4. **Reorganizing sidecar structure** - Move files, update ALL YAML references
5. **Updating knowledge base files** - Edit .csv/.json/.yaml data directly

**Critical mindset:** "Sidecar files are as much a part of the agent as the YAML!"

### Step 4: Sidecar Validation (+16 lines)
**Conversational validation:**
- "Your menu item 'daily-journal' references 'templates/daily.md'... checking... ✓ exists!"
- Check for orphaned files not referenced anywhere
- Verify sidecar file formats (YAML parses, CSV has headers, markdown well-formed)
- Success message: "✓ All sidecar file references valid - 5 sidecar files, all referenced correctly!"

### README Updates
- "What You'll Need" distinguishes Simple vs Expert paths
- Scenario 2b: Complete Expert agent editing example (journal-keeper template update)
- Updated common scenarios list

## 3. Unified Validation Checklist (Single Source of Truth)

### Problem Solved
- create-agent had outdated checklist (62 lines, no persona field separation)
- edit-agent had enhanced checklist (112 lines, with our improvements)
- Risk of drift and inconsistency between workflows

### Solution: agent-validation-checklist.md (160 lines)
**Canonical location:** `/src/modules/bmb/workflows/create-agent/`

**Comprehensive coverage combining best of both:**
- YAML structure validation
- **Persona field separation** (field separation check, purity check, quality benchmarking)
- Menu validation (including sidecar file path validation)
- Type-specific validation (Simple/Expert/Module)
- Compilation validation
- Common issues and fixes section

**Key sections:**
- Persona Validation (CRITICAL - #1 Quality Issue)
  * Field Separation Check (what belongs where)
  * Communication Style Purity Check (red flag word detection)
  * Quality Benchmarking (compare to presets and references)
- Expert Agent validation (9 sidecar-specific checks)
- Module Agent validation (design intent verification)
- Common Issues and Fixes (real examples with solutions)

### References Updated
**create-agent/workflow.yaml:**
```yaml
validation: "{installed_path}/agent-validation-checklist.md"
```

**edit-agent/workflow.yaml:**
```yaml
# Shared validation checklist (canonical location in create-agent folder)
validation: "{project-root}/{bmad_folder}/bmb/workflows/create-agent/agent-validation-checklist.md"
```

**edit-agent/instructions.md:**
```xml
<note>The validation checklist is shared between create-agent and edit-agent workflows to ensure consistent quality standards.</note>
```

### Files Changed
-  Created: agent-validation-checklist.md (160 lines)
-  Deleted: create-agent/checklist.md (62 lines)
-  Deleted: edit-agent/checklist.md (112 lines)
- Updated: Both workflow.yaml files to reference unified checklist

## Statistics

**Overall changes:** 6 files changed, +553 insertions, -264 deletions

**edit-agent enhancements:**
- instructions.md: +396 lines (comprehensive guidance)
- README.md: +213 lines (complete documentation)
- workflow.yaml: +32 lines (proper doc references)

**Validation unification:**
- Net result: Better quality, less duplication, easier maintenance
- Single source of truth for all agent validation

## Impact

### For Users Editing Agents
- Automatically detects and handles Expert agents with sidecar files
- Clear guidance on fixing #1 issue (persona field separation)
- 7-step prescriptive pattern for communication style refinement
- Warm, educational feedback throughout
- Validates against same standards as create-agent

### For Agent Quality
- Both create and edit workflows use same validation standards
- Persona field separation gets proper attention
- Expert agent sidecar files treated as first-class citizens
- Legacy agents can be migrated to modern standards
- All agents validated against reference implementations

### For Maintenance
- ONE checklist to maintain instead of two

054b031c1d feat: Complete BMAD agent creation system with install tooling, references, and field guidance
## Overview
This commit represents a complete overhaul of the BMAD agent creation system, establishing clear standards for agent development, installation workflows, and persona design. The changes span documentation, tooling, reference implementations, and field-specific guidance.

## Key Components

### 1. Agent Installation Infrastructure
**New CLI Command: `agent-install`**
- Interactive agent installation with persona customization
- Supports Simple (single YAML), Expert (sidecar files), and Module agents
- Template variable processing with Handlebars-style syntax
- Automatic compilation from YAML to XML (.md) format
- Manifest tracking and IDE integration (Claude Code, Cursor, Windsurf, etc.)
- Source preservation in `_cfg/custom/agents/` for reinstallation

**Files Created:**
- `tools/cli/commands/agent-install.js` - Main CLI command
- `tools/cli/lib/agent/compiler.js` - YAML to XML compilation engine
- `tools/cli/lib/agent/installer.js` - Installation orchestration
- `tools/cli/lib/agent/template-engine.js` - Handlebars template processing

**Compiler Features:**
- Auto-injects frontmatter, activation, handlers, help/exit menu items
- Smart handler inclusion (only includes action/workflow/exec/tmpl handlers actually used)
- Proper XML escaping and formatting
- Persona name customization (e.g., "Fred the Commit Poet")

### 2. Documentation Overhaul
**Deleted Bloated/Outdated Docs (2,651 lines removed):**
- Old verbose architecture docs
- Redundant pattern files
- Outdated workflow guides

**Created Focused, Type-Specific Docs:**
- `src/modules/bmb/docs/understanding-agent-types.md` - Architecture vs capability distinction
- `src/modules/bmb/docs/simple-agent-architecture.md` - Self-contained agents
- `src/modules/bmb/docs/expert-agent-architecture.md` - Agents with sidecar files
- `src/modules/bmb/docs/module-agent-architecture.md` - Workflow-integrated agents
- `src/modules/bmb/docs/agent-compilation.md` - YAML → XML process
- `src/modules/bmb/docs/agent-menu-patterns.md` - Menu design patterns
- `src/modules/bmb/docs/index.md` - Documentation hub

**Net Result:** ~1,930 line reduction while adding MORE value through focused content

### 3. Create-Agent Workflow Enhancements
**Critical Persona Field Guidance Added to Step 4:**
Explains how the LLM interprets each persona field when the agent activates:

- **role** → "What knowledge, skills, and capabilities do I possess?"
- **identity** → "What background, experience, and context shape my responses?"
- **communication_style** → "What verbal patterns, word choice, quirks, and phrasing do I use?"
- **principles** → "What beliefs and operating philosophy drive my choices?"

**Key Insight:** `communication_style` should ONLY describe HOW the agent talks, not restate role/identity/principles. The `communication-presets.csv` provides 60 pure communication styles with NO role/identity/principles mixed in.

**Files Updated:**
- `src/modules/bmb/workflows/create-agent/instructions.md` - Added persona field interpretation guide
- `src/modules/bmb/workflows/create-agent/brainstorm-context.md` - Refined to 137 lines
- `src/modules/bmb/workflows/create-agent/communication-presets.csv` - 60 styles across 13 categories

### 4. Reference Agent Cleanup
**Removed install_config Personality Bloat:**
Understanding: Future installer will handle personality customization, so stripped all personality toggles from reference agents.

**commit-poet.agent.yaml** (Simple Agent):
- BEFORE: 36 personality combinations (3 enthusiasm × 3 depths × 4 styles) = decision fatigue
- AFTER: Single concise persona with pure communication style
- Changed from verbose conditionals to: "Poetic drama and flair with every turn of a phrase. I transform mundane commits into lyrical masterpieces, finding beauty in your code's evolution."
- Reduction: 248 lines → 153 lines (38% reduction)

**journal-keeper.agent.yaml** (Expert Agent):
- Stripped install_config, simplified communication_style
- Shows proper Expert agent structure with sidecar files

**security-engineer.agent.yaml & trend-analyst.agent.yaml** (Module Agents):
- Added header comments explaining WHY Module Agent (design intent, not just location)
- Clarified: Module agents are designed FOR ecosystem integration, not capability-limited

**Files Updated:**
- `src/modules/bmb/reference/agents/simple-examples/commit-poet.agent.yaml`
- `src/modules/bmb/reference/agents/expert-examples/journal-keeper/journal-keeper.agent.yaml`
- `src/modules/bmb/reference/agents/module-examples/security-engineer.agent.yaml`
- `src/modules/bmb/reference/agents/module-examples/trend-analyst.agent.yaml`

### 5. BMM Agent Voice Enhancement
**Gave all 9 BMM agents distinct, memorable communication voices:**

**Mary (analyst)** - The favorite! Changed from generic "systematic and probing" to:
"Treats analysis like a treasure hunt - excited by every clue, thrilled when patterns emerge. Asks questions that spark 'aha!' moments while structuring insights with precision."

**Other Notable Voices:**
- **John (pm):** "Asks 'WHY?' relentlessly like a detective on a case. Direct and data-sharp, cuts through fluff to what actually matters."
- **Winston (architect):** "Speaks in calm, pragmatic tones, balancing 'what could be' with 'what should be.' Champions boring technology that actually works."
- **Amelia (dev):** "Ultra-succinct. Speaks in file paths and AC IDs - every statement citable. No fluff, all precision."
- **Bob (sm):** "Crisp and checklist-driven. Every word has a purpose, every requirement crystal clear. Zero tolerance for ambiguity."
- **Sally (ux-designer):** "Paints pictures with words, telling user stories that make you FEEL the problem. Empathetic advocate with creative storytelling flair."

**Pattern Applied:** Moved behaviors from communication_style to principles, keeping communication_style as PURE verbal patterns.

**Files Updated:**
- `src/modules/bmm/agents/analyst.agent.yaml`
- `src/modules/bmm/agents/pm.agent.yaml`
- `src/modules/bmm/agents/architect.agent.yaml`
- `src/modules/bmm/agents/dev.agent.yaml`
- `src/modules/bmm/agents/sm.agent.yaml`
- `src/modules/bmm/agents/tea.agent.yaml`
- `src/modules/bmm/agents/tech-writer.agent.yaml`
- `src/modules/bmm/agents/ux-designer.agent.yaml`
- `src/modules/bmm/agents/frame-expert.agent.yaml`

### 6. Linting Fixes
**ESLint Compliance:**
- Replaced all `'utf-8'` with `'utf8'` (unicorn/text-encoding-identifier-case)
- Changed `variables.hasOwnProperty(varName)` to `Object.hasOwn(variables, varName)` (unicorn/prefer-object-has-own)
- Replaced `JSON.parse(JSON.stringify(...))` with `structuredClone(...)` (unicorn/prefer-structured-clone)
- Fixed empty YAML mapping values in sample files

**Files Fixed:**
- 7 JavaScript files across agent tooling (compiler, installer, commands, IDE integration)
- 1 YAML sample file

## Architecture Decisions

### Agent Types Are About Architecture, Not Capability
- **Simple:** Self-contained in single YAML (NOT limited in capability)
- **Expert:** Includes sidecar files (templates, docs, etc.)
- **Module:** Designed for BMAD ecosystem integration (workflows, cross-agent coordination)

### Persona Field Separation Critical for LLM Interpretation
The LLM needs distinct fields to understand its role:
- Mixing role/identity/principles into communication_style confuses the persona
- Pure communication styles (from communication-presets.csv) have ZERO role/identity/principles content
- Example DON'T: "Experienced analyst who uses systematic approaches..." (mixing identity + style)
- Example DO: "Systematic and probing. Structures findings hierarchically." (pure style)

### Install-Time vs Runtime Configuration
- Template variables ({{var}}) resolve at compile-time
- Runtime variables ({user_name}, {bmad_folder}) resolve when agent activates
- Future installer will handle personality customization, so agents should ship with single default persona

## Testing
- All linting passes (ESLint with max-warnings=0)
- Agent compilation tested with commit-poet, journal-keeper examples
- Install workflow validated with Simple and Expert agent types
- Manifest tracking and IDE integration verified

## Impact
This establishes BMAD as having a complete, production-ready agent creation and installation system with:
- Clear documentation for all agent types
- Automated compilation and installation
- Strong persona design guidance
- Reference implementations showing best practices
- Distinct, memorable agent voices throughout BMM module

7b7f984cd2 feat: Add Google Antigravity IDE installer (#938)
Implements installer for Google Antigravity IDE with flattened slash command
naming to match Antigravity's namespace requirements.

Key features:
- Flattened file naming (bmad-module-agents-name.md) for proper slash commands
- Subagent installation support (project-level or user-level)
- Module-specific injection configuration
- Agent, workflow, task, and tool command generation

Implementation:
- Added AntigravitySetup class extending BaseIdeSetup
- Extracted flattenFilename() to BaseIdeSetup for reuse across IDE handlers
- Uses .agent/workflows directory structure
- Supports both interactive and non-interactive configuration

Fixes:
- Proper namespace isolation: /bmad-module-agents-dev instead of /dev
- Prevents conflicts between modules with same agent names

Note: This installer shares 95% of its code with claude-code.js.
Future refactoring could extract common patterns to IdeWithSlashCommandsSetup
base class (see design documents for details).

073597a8ff feat: Add project-specific installation option for Codex CLI (#937)
Add support for choosing between global and project-specific installation
locations for Codex CLI prompts with CODEX_HOME configuration instructions.

Changes:
- Add collectConfiguration() to prompt for installation location (default: global)
- Support global (~/.codex/prompts) and project-specific (<project>/.codex/prompts)
- Display OS-specific CODEX_HOME setup instructions before user confirms
- Update detect() and cleanup() to handle both installation locations

Installation options:
- Global: Simple, works immediately, but prompts reference specific .bmad path
- Project-specific: Requires CODEX_HOME, better for multi-project workflows
  - Unix/Mac: alias codex='CODEX_HOME="$PWD/.codex" codex'
  - Windows: codex.cmd wrapper with %~dp0

f38905628a Fix: Add prompts and memories merging from customize.yaml (#889)
- Add merging logic for customizeYaml.prompts and customizeYaml.memories in loadAndMergeAgent()
- Implement buildMemoriesXml() method to output memories XML section
- Update buildPromptsXml() to use <content> wrapper instead of CDATA for better compatibility
- Integrate memories output into convertToXml() between persona and prompts sections

Changes:
1. Line 123-131: Added prompts and memories append logic in loadAndMergeAgent()
2. Line 215-218: Added memories XML output in convertToXml()
3. Line 286-301: New buildMemoriesXml() method
4. Line 312-315: Updated prompts to use <content> wrapper for consistency

This allows users to customize agents via bmad/_cfg/agents/*.customize.yaml with:
- prompts: Array of {id, content} objects for action handlers
- memories: Array of strings for persistent agent memories

f14014f0c7 refactor: Major workflow enhancements - time estimates prohibition, progressive epic creation, and workflow simplification
## Key Changes

### 1. Time Estimate Prohibition (All Modules)
- Added critical warnings against providing ANY time estimates (hours/days/weeks/months)
- Acknowledges AI has fundamentally changed development speed
- Applied to 33 workflow instruction files across BMB, BMGD, BMM, and CIS modules
- Updated workflow creation guide with prohibition guidelines

### 2. Enhanced Epic Creation Workflow

- Cleaner path selection and initialization logic
- Removed redundant complexity while maintaining functionality

### 4. Workflow Path Updates
- Updated all 4 workflow paths (enterprise/method × brownfield/greenfield)
- Added multiple optional epic creation steps at different phases:
  - After PRD (basic structure)
  - After UX Design (with interaction context)
  - After Architecture (final with full context)
- Changed PRD output description from "with epics and stories" to "with FRs and NFRs"

### 5. Architecture & Innovation Updates

1868477238 refactor(config): replace hardcoded .bmad paths with {bmad_folder} placeholder
Remove hardcoded .bmad folder references throughout documentation and source files, replacing them with the configurable {bmad_folder} placeholder. This change enables users to customize the BMAD installation folder name via configuration, improving flexibility and reducing coupling to a specific directory structure.

Changes include:
- Update all documentation to reference {bmad_folder} instead of .bmad
- Remove legacy configuration files from .bmad and .claude directories
- Update workflow.xml and CLI documentation with new placeholder syntax

48cf5c8056 feat(workflows): Implement intelligent file discovery protocol and Phase 4 BMGD workflows
## Core Workflow Engine Enhancements

### discover_inputs Protocol (MAJOR)
- Added reusable `discover_inputs` protocol to workflow.xml for intelligent file loading
- Supports three loading strategies:
  - FULL_LOAD: Load all shards for PRD, Architecture, UX (changed pattern from /index.md to /*/*.md)
  - SELECTIVE_LOAD: Load specific shard via template variable (e.g., epic-{{epic_num}}.md)
  - INDEX_GUIDED: Load index, analyze TOC, intelligently load relevant docs (with "DO NOT BE LAZY" mandate)
- Auto-discovers whole vs sharded documents with proper fallback
- Provides transparent reporting of loaded content with file counts
- Invoked via <invoke-protocol name="discover_inputs" /> tag in workflow instructions

### Advanced Elicitation Improvements
- Renamed adv-elicit.xml to advanced-elicitation.xml for clarity
- Updated all references across agents and commands

### Shard Document Tool Enhancement
- Added Step 6: Handle Original Document with three options:
  - [d] Delete - Remove original (recommended, prevents confusion)
  - [m] Move to archive - Backup original to archive folder
  - [k] Keep - Warning about defeating sharding purpose
- Prevents issue where both whole and sharded versions exist, confusing discover_inputs protocol

## BMM Module - Input File Pattern Standardization

### Phase 1 - Analysis (1 workflow)
- product-brief: Added load_strategy (FULL_LOAD for research/brainstorming, INDEX_GUIDED for document_project)
- Updated instructions.md to use invoke-protocol, replaced manual fuzzy matching

### Phase 2 - Planning (4 workflows)
- prd: Added load_strategy, updated instructions to reference {product_brief_content}, {research_content}
- create-ux-design: Added load_strategy, removed fuzzy matching from instructions
- tech-spec: Added load_strategy for brownfield context discovery
- All epics patterns updated to support SELECTIVE_LOAD for specific epic shards

### Phase 3 - Solutioning (2 workflows)
- architecture: Added load_strategy, updated instructions to use pre-loaded {prd_content}, {epics_content}, {ux_design_content}
- solutioning-gate-check: Added load_strategy, replaced manual discovery with protocol invocation

### Phase 4 - Implementation (8 workflows)
- code-review: Added load_strategy, fixed sharded patterns to /*/*.md, added step 1.5 for protocol
- correct-course: Added complete input_file_patterns section (was missing), added step 0.5
- create-story: Added load_strategy, updated to SELECTIVE_LOAD for epics, added step 1.5
- dev-story: Added complete input_file_patterns section (was missing), added step 0.5
- epic-tech-context: Added load_strategy, updated PRD extraction to use {prd_content}, added step 1.5
- retrospective: Added load_strategy for architecture/prd (FULL_LOAD), epics (SELECTIVE_LOAD), added step 0.5
- sprint-planning: Fixed sharded pattern to load ALL epics (/*/*.md), added step 0.5
- story-context: Added load_strategy, updated doc collection to reference pre-loaded content, added step 1.5

### Sprint Artifacts Path Corrections
- story-done: Added missing sprint_artifacts variable, fixed sprint_status path from {context_dir} to {sprint_artifacts}
- story-ready: Added missing sprint_artifacts variable
- story-context: Fixed undefined {context_dir} -> {sprint_artifacts}
- correct-course: Added sprint_artifacts and sprint_status variables

## BMGD Module - Phase 4 Production Workflows (NEW)

Added complete Phase 4 implementation workflows for game development:
- code-review: Senior developer review for completed game features
- correct-course: Sprint change management for game projects
- create-story: Story generation for game mechanics/features
- dev-story: Feature implementation workflow
- epic-tech-context: Technical spec generation per game epic
- retrospective: Epic completion review and lessons learned
- sprint-planning: Game development sprint status tracking
- story-context: Dynamic context assembly for game stories
- story-done: Story completion workflow
- story-ready: Story readiness workflow

All BMGD workflows follow BMM patterns with game-specific adaptations.

## Agent Updates

### BMM Agents
- Updated all 7 BMM agents (analyst, architect, dev, pm, sm, tea, tech-writer, ux-designer)
- Standardized web bundle configurations

### BMGD Agents
- Updated 4 game development agents (game-architect, game-designer, game-dev, game-scrum-master)
- Aligned with BMM agent structure

### CIS Agents
- Updated 5 creative intelligence agents for consistency

## Documentation & Configuration

- Updated CHANGELOG.md with Phase 4 workflow additions
- Updated files-manifest.csv and task-manifest.csv
- Updated .claude commands for all agents
- Fixed formatting issues from previous commits

## Breaking Changes

NONE - All changes are backward compatible. Workflows without input_file_patterns continue to work.
Workflows with input_file_patterns now benefit from intelligent auto-loading.

## Migration Notes

Existing workflows can gradually adopt discover_inputs protocol by:
1. Adding load_strategy to existing input_file_patterns in workflow.yaml
2. Adding <invoke-protocol name="discover_inputs" /> step in instructions.md
3. Replacing manual file loading with references to {pattern_name_content} variables

4d745532aa refactor(tech-spec): unify story generation and adopt intent-based approach
Major refactoring of tech-spec workflow for quick-flow projects:

## Unified Story Generation
- Consolidated instructions-level0-story.md and instructions-level1-stories.md into single instructions-generate-stories.md
- Always generates epic + stories (minimal epic for 1 story, detailed for multiple)
- Consistent naming: story-{epic-slug}-N.md for all stories (1-5)
- Eliminated branching logic and duplicate code

## Intent-Based Intelligence
- Removed 150+ lines of hardcoded stack detection examples (Node.js, Python, Ruby, Java, Go, Rust, PHP)
- Replaced prescriptive instructions with intelligent guidance that trusts LLM capabilities
- PHASE 2 stack detection now adapts to ANY project type automatically
- Step 2 discovery changed from scripted Q&A to adaptive conversation goals

## Terminology Updates
- Replaced "Level 0" and "Level 1" with "quick-flow" terminology throughout
- Updated to "single story" vs "multiple stories (2-5)" language
- Consistent modern terminology across all files

## Variable and Structure Improvements
- Fixed variable references: now uses {instructions_generate_stories} instead of hardcoded paths
- Updated workflow.yaml with cleaner variable structure
- Removed unused variables (project_level, development_context)
- Added story_count and epic_slug runtime variables

## Files Changed
- Deleted: instructions-level0-story.md (7,259 bytes)
- Deleted: instructions-level1-stories.md (16,274 bytes)
- Created: instructions-generate-stories.md (13,109 bytes)
- Updated: instructions.md (reduced from 35,028 to 32,006 bytes)
- Updated: workflow.yaml, checklist.md

## Impact
- 50% fewer workflow files (3 → 1 for story generation)
- More adaptable to any tech stack
- Clearer, more maintainable code
- Better developer and user experience
- Trusts modern LLM intelligence instead of constraining with examples

- Complete guide for customizing agent names, personas, memories, and behaviors
- Update-safe customization via bmad/_cfg/agents/ configuration files
- Real-world examples (TDD setup, multilingual agents, custom workflows)
- Troubleshooting and best practices

**docs/web-bundles-gemini-gpt-guide.md**
- Comprehensive guide for using BMad agents in Gemini Gems and Custom GPTs
- Critical setup rules with exact configuration text required
- Cost-saving strategy: web planning → local implementation (60-80% savings)
- Platform comparison (Gemini Gems strongly recommended over Custom GPTs)
- Complete workflow examples showing full planning-to-implementation cycle
- Team bundle guidance (Gemini 2.5 Pro+ only)

**README.md updates**
- Added prominent links in v6 Core Enhancements section
- Created new "Customization & Sharing" documentation category
- Web Bundles feature highlighted with direct guide link

**Unified output folder structure across all modules:**

**Before (confusing):**
- output_folder: Main docs
- game_design_docs: Separate design folder
- tech_docs: Separate technical folder
- dev_ephemeral_location: Separate ephemeral folder outside docs

**After (simplified):**
- output_folder: Single location for ALL AI-generated artifacts (default: "docs")
  - Clearer prompt: "Where should AI Generated Artifacts be saved?"
- sprint_artifacts: Phase 4 ephemeral content now WITHIN output_folder
  - BMM: {output_folder}/stories (stories, context, reports)
  - BMGD: {output_folder}/sprint-artifacts
  - No longer in separate {bmad_folder}-ephemeral location

**Benefits:**
- One clear location for all planning artifacts (PRD, Architecture, UX, etc.)
- Phase 4 ephemeral items logically grouped within output folder
- Eliminated confusing separate folder proliferation
- sprint_artifacts now configurable per module

**Files changed:**
- src/core/_module-installer/install-config.yaml
- src/modules/bmm/_module-installer/install-config.yaml
- src/modules/bmgd/_module-installer/install-config.yaml

**Also cleaned up BMGD config:**
- Renamed: specified_framework → primary_platform (clearer naming)
- Removed: unused data_path variable

Replaced old "project_level" (0-4) system with new "selected_track" terminology:
- **quick-flow**: Bug fixes and small features (replaces Level 0-1)
- **bmad-method**: Full planning track (replaces Level 2-3)
- **enterprise-bmad-method**: Extended planning (replaces Level 4)

**Core workflow updates:**
- solutioning-gate-check: Complete rewrite of validation logic for track-based artifacts
- architecture: Updated context detection, error handling, and messaging for tracks
- workflow-init: Updated artifact detection patterns for track-based paths
- All workflow status paths updated (method-greenfield, method-brownfield, enterprise-*)

Unified variable naming conventions across all workflows:
- {output_folder} → {output-folder} (hyphenated format)
- {dev_ephemeral_location} → {sprint_artifacts} (clearer purpose)
- Hardcoded status file paths → {workflow_status_file} variable

Fixed corrupted variable patterns throughout workflow files:
- {output*folder} → {output-folder}
- {ephemeral*location} → {sprint_artifacts}
- \_prd* → *prd* (escaped underscore artifacts)
- **\*\***\_\_\_**\*\*** → proper field placeholders

Affected patterns included malformed glob patterns, template variables, and markdown formatting artifacts from previous edits.

**Architecture workflow (create-architecture):**
- Fixed: "Decision Architecture" → "Create Architecture" (consistent naming)
- Improved PRD not found handling with exit/continue options
- Better user guidance when running standalone vs. within workflow path
- Removed hardcoded Level checks, now track-aware
- Enhanced validation checklist formatting (□ → - [])
- Typo fixes: "mulitple" → "multiple"

**Solutioning gate check:**
- Complete validation logic rewrite for track-based system
- Removed Level-specific artifact expectations
- Simplified document discovery (track determines what exists)
- Better analysis prompts and user feedback

**Workflow-init:**
- Updated artifact detection patterns for new folder structure
- Fixed corrupt glob patterns throughout
- Better sprint_artifacts location detection
- Improved workflow path assignment logic

**Various workflows:**
- Consistent variable naming across 40+ workflow files
- Improved error messages and user guidance
- Better markdown formatting (checkboxes, lists)
- Removed redundant validation criteria files (now inline)

Removed duplicate BMGD 4-production workflows (12 workflows):
- code-review, correct-course, create-story, dev-story
- epic-tech-context, retrospective, sprint-planning
- story-context, story-done, story-ready

**Why:** BMGD now uses shared BMM Phase 4 implementation workflows
**Benefit:** Single source of truth, no duplication to maintain

Also removed:
- validation-criteria.yaml (validation now inline in instructions)
- architecture-patterns.yaml references (patterns now managed differently)
- AUDIT-REPORT.md files (stale audit artifacts)

**BMB workflows:**
- Updated checklists for workflow and module creation
- Improved agent architecture documentation
- Minor instruction clarifications

**Core brainstorming workflow:**
- Updated README with usage examples
- Enhanced instructions and template clarity
- Better integration with other modules

**BMM installer:**
- Updated for track-based system
- sprint_artifacts configuration

**Tech Writer agent:**
- Minor configuration update for documentation workflows

Removed 200+ files that should not be in repository:
- Installed agent markdown files (analyst, architect, dev, pm, sm, tea, etc.)
- Complete workflow instruction copies
- Documentation duplicates (quick-start, agents-guide, workflows-*)
- Test architecture knowledge base (22 files, 14,000+ lines)
- Configuration files (config.yaml, team definitions)

These are generated during installation and should not be version controlled.

Removed 21 pre-generated XML bundles:
- BMM agents (analyst, architect, dev, pm, sm, tea, tech-writer, ux-designer)
- BMGD agents (game-architect, game-designer, game-dev, game-scrum-master)
- CIS agents (brainstorming-coach, creative-problem-solver, etc.)
- Team bundles (team-fullstack, team-gamedev, creative-squad)

**Why:** Users should generate fresh bundles via `npm run bundle` to get latest changes and customizations.

- **2 new documentation files** (comprehensive guides)
- **98 source files modified** (299 insertions, 6,567 deletions)
- **3 installer config files simplified** (major folder structure improvement)
- **200+ .bmad/ artifacts removed** (should not be in repo)
- **21 web-bundle files removed** (users regenerate as needed)
- **12 duplicate workflows removed** (BMGD consolidation)
- **40+ workflows updated** (track system, variable standardization, corruption fixes)

80a04bfce3 fix: Remove menu items for workflows with web_bundle: false
Enhanced removeSkippedWorkflowCommands() to properly remove all menu item
formats that reference workflows with web_bundle: false:

1. <item> tags with workflow attribute
2. <item> tags with run-workflow attribute
3. <c> tags with run-workflow attribute (legacy)

This ensures that workflows not designed for web bundles (like workflow-status
which requires filesystem access) are completely excluded from web bundles,
including their menu items.

Verified:
- workflow-status menu item removed from SM agent
- workflow-status YAML not included in bundle dependencies

281eac3373 feat: Add workflow vendoring to web bundler
The web bundler now performs workflow vendoring before bundling agents,
similar to the module installer. This ensures that workflows referenced
via workflow-install attributes are copied from their source locations
to their destination locations before the bundler attempts to resolve
and bundle them.

Changes:
- Added vendorCrossModuleWorkflows() method to WebBundler class
- Added updateWorkflowConfigSource() helper method
- Integrated vendoring into bundleAll(), bundleModule(), and bundleAgent()
- Workflows are vendored before agent discovery and bundling
- Config_source is updated in vendored workflows to reference target module

This fixes missing dependency warnings for BMGD agents that vendor
BMM workflows for Phase 4 (Production) workflows.

f84e18760f feat: Extract BMGD module and implement workflow vendoring
This commit extracts game development functionality from BMM into a standalone
BMGD (BMad Game Development) module and implements workflow vendoring to enable
module independence.

BMGD Module Creation:
- Moved agents: game-designer, game-dev, game-architect from BMM to BMGD
- Moved team config: team-gamedev
- Created new Game Dev Scrum Master agent using workflow vendoring pattern
- Reorganized workflows into industry-standard game dev phases:
  * Phase 1 (Preproduction): brainstorm-game, game-brief
  * Phase 2 (Design): gdd, narrative
  * Phase 3 (Technical): game-architecture
  * Phase 4 (Production): vendored from BMM workflows
- Updated all module metadata and config_source references

Workflow Vendoring Feature:
- Enables modules to copy workflows from other modules during installation
- Build-time process that updates config_source in vendored workflows
- New agent YAML attribute: workflow-install (build-time metadata)
- Final compiled agents use workflow-install value for workflow attribute
- Implementation in module manager: vendorCrossModuleWorkflows()
- Allows standalone module installation without forced dependencies

Technical Changes:
- tools/cli/lib/yaml-xml-builder.js: Use workflow-install for workflow attribute
- tools/cli/installers/lib/modules/manager.js: Add vendoring functions
- tools/schema/agent.js: Add workflow-install to menu item schema
- Updated 3 documentation files with workflow vendoring details

BMM Workflow Updates:
- workflow-status/init: Added game detection checkpoint
- workflow-status/paths/game-design.yaml: Redirect to BMGD module
- prd/instructions.md: Route game projects to BMGD
- research/instructions-market.md: Reference BMGD for game development

Documentation:
- Created comprehensive BMGD module README
- Added workflow vendoring documentation
- Updated BMB agent creation and module creation guides

accae5d789 refactor: comprehensive workflow modernization and standardization
## Major Improvements

### 1. Elicitation System Modernization
- Removed legacy `<elicit-required />` tag from workflow.xml
- Replaced with direct `<invoke-task halt="true">{project-root}/bmad/core/tasks/adv-elicit.xml</invoke-task>` pattern
- More explicit, self-documenting, and eliminates indirection layer
- Added strategic elicitation points across all planning workflows:
  - PRD: After success criteria, scope, functional requirements, and final review
  - Create-Epics-And-Stories: After epic proposals and each epic's stories
  - Architecture: After decisions, structure, patterns, implementation patterns, and final doc
  - Updated audit-workflow tag scanner to remove obsolete elicit-required reference

### 2. Input Document Discovery Streamlined
- Replaced verbose 19-line "Input Document Discovery" sections with single critical tag
- New format: `<critical>Input documents specified in workflow.yaml input_file_patterns...</critical>`
- Eliminates duplication - workflow.yaml already defines patterns
- Updated across 6 workflows (PRD, create-epics-and-stories, architecture, tech-spec, UX, gate-check)
- Saved ~114 lines of repeated bloat

### 3. Scale System Migration (Levels 0-4 → 3 Tracks)
- Updated PRD workflow from "Level 0-4" to "Quick Flow / BMad Method / Enterprise Method"
- Changed `project_level` variable to `project_track`
- Removed `target_scale` variable (no longer needed)
- Updated workflow.yaml descriptions to reference tracks not levels
- Updated checklist from "Level 2" and "Level 3-4" to "BMad Method" and "Enterprise Method"
- Aligns with new scale-adaptive-system.md (3-track methodology)

### 4. Epic/Story Template Standardization
- Replaced hardcoded 8-epic template with clean repeating pattern using N/M variables
- Added BDD-style acceptance criteria (Given/When/Then/And)
- Removed instructional bloat from templates (moved to instructions.md where it belongs)
- Template shows OUTPUT structure, instructions show PROCESS
- Applied to both create-epics-and-stories and tech-spec workflows
- Templates now use HTML comments to indicate repeating sections

### 5. Workflow.yaml Pattern Consistency
- Standardized input_file_patterns across all workflows
- Separated `recommended_inputs` (semantic WHAT) from `input_file_patterns` (file discovery WHERE)
- Removed duplication between recommended_inputs file paths and input_file_patterns
- Create-epics-and-stories now uses proper whole/sharded pattern like architecture workflow
- Solutioning-gate-check cleaned up to use semantic descriptions not file paths

## Files Changed (18)
- Core: workflow.xml (removed elicit-required tag and references)
- Audit workflow: Updated tag pattern scanner
- PRD workflow: Elicitation points, track migration, input discovery
- Create-epics-and-stories: Template rebuild, BDD format, elicitation, input patterns
- Tech-spec: Template rebuild, BDD format, input discovery
- UX Design: Input discovery streamlined
- Architecture: Elicitation at 5 key decision points, input discovery
- Gate-check: Input pattern cleanup, input discovery

## Impact
- More consistent elicitation across workflows
- Cleaner, more maintainable templates
- Better separation of concerns (templates vs instructions)
- Aligned with v6 3-track scale system
- Reduced bloat and duplication significantly

17f81a84f3 docs: comprehensive documentation accuracy overhaul and PM/UX evolution analysis
This commit represents a major documentation quality improvement, fixing critical inaccuracies and adding forward-looking guidance on the evolving role of PMs/UX in AI-driven development.

## Documentation Accuracy Fixes (Agent YAML as Source of Truth)

### Critical Corrections in agents-guide.md
- **Game Developer workflows**: Fixed incorrect workflow names (dev-story → develop-story, added story-done, removed non-existent create-story and retro)
- **Technical Writer naming**: Added agent name "Paige" to match all other agent naming patterns
- **Agent reference tables**: Updated to reflect actual agent capabilities from YAML configs
- **epic-tech-context ownership**: Corrected across all docs - belongs to SM agent, not Architect

### Critical Corrections in workflows-implementation.md
- **Line 16 + 75**: Fixed epic-tech-context agent from "Architect" → "SM" (matches sm.agent.yaml)
- **Line 258**: Updated epic-tech-context section header to show correct agent ownership
- **Multi-agent workflow table**: Moved epic-tech-context to SM agent row where it belongs

### Principle Applied
**Agent YAML files are source of truth** - All documentation now accurately reflects what agents can actually do per their YAML configurations, not assumptions or outdated info.

## Brownfield Development: Phase 0 Documentation Reality Check

### Rewrote brownfield-guide.md Phase 0 Section
Replaced oversimplified 3-scenario model with **real-world guidance**:

**Before**: Assumed docs are either perfect or non-existent
**After**: Handles messy reality of brownfield projects

**New Scenarios (4 instead of 3)**:
- **Scenario A**: No documentation → document-project (was covered)
- **Scenario B**: Docs exist but massive/outdated/incomplete → **document-project** (NEW - very common)
- **Scenario C**: Good docs but no structure → **shard-doc → index-docs** (NEW - handles massive files)
- **Scenario D**: Confirmed AI-optimized docs → Skip Phase 0 (was "Scenario C", now correctly marked RARE)

**Key Additions**:
- Default recommendation: "Run document-project unless you have confirmed, trusted, AI-optimized docs"
- Quality assessment checklist (current, AI-optimized, comprehensive, trusted)
- Massive document handling with shard-doc tool (>500 lines, 10+ level 2 sections)
- Explicit guidance on why regenerate vs index (outdated docs cause hallucinations)
- Impact explanation: how bad docs break AI workflows (token limits, wrong assumptions, broken integrations)

**Principle**: "When in doubt, run document-project" - Better to spend 10-30 minutes generating fresh docs than waste hours debugging AI agents with bad documentation.

## PM/UX Evolution: Enterprise Agentic Development

### New Content: The Evolving Role of Product Managers & UX Designers

Added comprehensive section based on **November 2025 industry research**:

**Industry Data**:
- 56% of product professionals cite AI/ML as top focus
- PRD-to-Code automation: build and deploy apps in 10-15 minutes
- By 2026: Roles converging into "Full-Stack Product Lead" (PM + Design + Engineering)
- Very high salaries for AI agent PMs who orchestrate autonomous systems

**Role Transformation**:
- From spec writers → code orchestrators
- PMs writing AI-optimized PRDs that **feed agentic pipelines directly**
- UX designers generating code with Figma-to-code tools
- Technical fluency becoming **table stakes**, not optional
- Review PRs from AI agents alongside human developers

**New Section: "How BMad Method Enables PM/UX Technical Evolution"** (10 ways):
1. **AI-Executable PRD Generation** - PRDs become work packages for cloud agents
2. **Automated Epic/Story Breakdown** - No more story refinement sessions
3. **Human-in-the-Loop Architecture** - PMs learn while validating technical decisions
4. **Cloud Agentic Pipeline** - Current (2025) + Future (2026) vision with diagrams
5. **UX Design Integration** - Designs validated through working prototypes
6. **PM Technical Skills Development** - Learn by doing through conversational workflows
7. **Organizational Leverage** - 1 PM → 20-50 AI agents (5-10× multiplier)
8. **Quality Consistency** - What gets built matches what was specified
9. **Rapid Prototyping** - Hours to validate ideas vs months
10. **Career Path Evolution** - Positions PMs for AI Agent PM, Full-Stack Product Lead roles

**Cloud Agentic Pipeline Vision**:
```
Current (2025): PM PRD → Stories → Human devs + BMad agents → PRs → Review → Deploy
Future (2026): PM PRD → Stories → Cloud AI agents → Auto PRs → Review → Auto-merge → Deploy
Time savings: 6-8 weeks → 2-5 days
```

**What Remains Human**:
- Product vision, empathy, creativity, judgment, ethics
- PMs spend MORE time on human elements (AI handles execution)
- Product leaders become "builder-thinkers" not just spec writers

### Document Tightening (enterprise-agentic-development.md)
- **Reduced from 1207 → 640 lines (47% reduction)**
- **10× more BMad-centric** - Every section ties back to how BMad enables the future
- Removed redundant examples, consolidated sections, kept actionable insights
- Stronger value propositions for PMs, UX, enterprise teams throughout

**Key Message**: "The future isn't AI replacing PMs—it's AI-augmented PMs becoming 10× more powerful through BMad Method."

## Impact

These changes bring documentation quality from **D- to A+**:
- **Accuracy**: Agent capabilities now match YAML source of truth (zero hallucination risk)
- **Reality**: Brownfield guidance handles messy real-world scenarios, not idealized ones
- **Forward-looking**: PM/UX evolution section positions BMad as essential framework for emerging roles
- **Actionable**: Concrete workflows, commands, examples throughout
- **Concise**: 47% reduction while strengthening value proposition

Users now have **trustworthy, reality-based, future-oriented guidance** for using BMad Method in both current workflows and emerging agentic development patterns.

3d4ea5ffd2 feat: add universal document sharding support with dual-strategy loading
Implement comprehensive document sharding system across all BMM workflows enabling 90%+ token savings for large multi-epic projects through selective loading optimization.

## Document Sharding System

### Core Features
- **Universal Support**: All 12 BMM workflows (Phase 1-4) handle both whole and sharded documents
- **Dual Loading Strategy**: Full Load (Phase 1-3) vs Selective Load (Phase 4)
- **Automatic Discovery**: Workflows detect format transparently (whole → sharded priority)
- **Efficiency Optimization**: 90%+ token reduction for 10+ epic projects in Phase 4

### Implementation Details

**Phase 1-3 Workflows (7 workflows) - Full Load Strategy:**
- product-brief, prd, gdd, create-ux-design, tech-spec, architecture, solutioning-gate-check
- Load entire sharded documents when present
- Transparent to user experience
- Better organization for large projects

**Phase 4 Workflows (5 workflows) - Selective Load Strategy:**
- sprint-planning (Full Load exception - needs all epics)
- epic-tech-context, create-story, story-context, code-review (Selective Load)
- Load ONLY the specific epic needed (e.g., epic-3.md for Epic 3 stories)
- Massive efficiency: Skip loading 9 other epics in 10-epic project

### Workflow Enhancements

**Added to all workflows:**
- `input_file_patterns` in workflow.yaml with wildcard discovery
- Document Discovery section in instructions.md
- Support for sharded index + section files
- Brownfield `docs/index.md` support

**Pattern standardization:**
```yaml
input_file_patterns:
  document:
    whole: "{output_folder}/*doc*.md"
    sharded: "{output_folder}/*doc*/index.md"
    sharded_single: "{output_folder}/*doc*/section-{{id}}.md"  # Selective load
```

### Retrospective Workflow Major Overhaul

Transformed retrospective into immersive, interactive team experience:

**Epic Discovery Priority (Fixed):**
- Priority 1: Check sprint-status.yaml for last completed epic
- Priority 2: Ask user directly
- Priority 3: Scan stories folder (last resort)

**New Capabilities:**
- Deep story analysis: Extract dev notes, mistakes, review feedback, lessons learned
- Previous retro integration: Track action items, verify lessons applied
- Significant change detection: Alert when discoveries require epic updates
- Intent-based facilitation: Natural conversation vs scripted phrases
- Party mode protocol: Clear speaker identification (Name (Role): dialogue)
- Team dynamics: Drama, disagreements, diverse perspectives, authentic conflict

**Structure:**
- 12 whole-number steps (no decimals)
- Highly interactive with constant user engagement
- Cross-references previous retro for accountability
- Synthesizes patterns across all stories
- Detects architectural assumption changes

## Documentation

**Created:**
- `docs/document-sharding-guide.md` - Comprehensive 300+ line guide
  - What is sharding, when to use it (token thresholds)
  - How sharding works (discovery system, loading strategies)
  - Using shard-doc tool
  - Full Load vs Selective Load patterns
  - Complete examples and troubleshooting
  - Custom workflow integration patterns

**Updated:**
- `README.md` - Added Document Sharding feature section
- `docs/index.md` - Added under Advanced Topics → Optimization
- `src/modules/bmm/workflows/README.md` - Added sharding section with usage
- `src/modules/bmb/workflows/create-workflow/workflow-creation-guide.md` - Added complete implementation patterns for workflow builders

**Documentation levels:**
1. Overview (README.md) - Quick feature highlight
2. User guide (BMM workflows README) - Practical usage
3. Reference (document-sharding-guide.md) - Complete details
4. Builder guide (workflow-creation-guide.md) - Implementation patterns

## Efficiency Gains

**Example: 10-Epic Project**

Before sharding:
- epic-tech-context for Epic 3: Load all 10 epics (~50k tokens)
- create-story for Epic 3: Load all 10 epics (~50k tokens)
- story-context for Epic 3: Load all 10 epics (~50k tokens)

After sharding with selective load:
- epic-tech-context for Epic 3: Load Epic 3 only (~5k tokens) = 90% reduction
- create-story for Epic 3: Load Epic 3 only (~5k tokens) = 90% reduction
- story-context for Epic 3: Load Epic 3 only (~5k tokens) = 90% reduction

## Breaking Changes

None - fully backward compatible. Workflows work with existing whole documents.

## Files Changed

**Workflows Updated (25 files):**
- 7 Phase 1-3 workflows: Added full load sharding support
- 5 Phase 4 workflows: Added selective load sharding support
- 1 retrospective workflow: Complete overhaul with sharding support

**Documentation (5 files):**
- Created: document-sharding-guide.md
- Updated: README.md, docs/index.md, BMM workflows README, BMB workflow-creation-guide
- Removed: Old conversion report (obsolete)

## Future Extensibility

- BMB workflows now aware of sharding patterns
- Custom modules can easily implement sharding support
- Standard patterns documented for consistency
- No need to explain concept in future development

8376ca0ba2 fix: add CommonMark-compliant markdown formatting rules (#830)
* fix: add CommonMark-compliant markdown formatting rules to workflow

Problem:
--------
BMAD generates markdown that violates CommonMark specification by omitting
required blank lines around lists, tables, and code blocks. While GitHub's
renderer (GFM) handles this gracefully, strict parsers like Mac Markdown.app
break completely, rendering lists as plain text and losing document structure.

Solution:
---------
Add 6 mandatory markdown formatting rules to workflow.xml (line 73) that
enforce proper spacing and consistency:

1. ALWAYS add blank line before and after bullet lists
2. ALWAYS add blank line before and after numbered lists
3. ALWAYS add blank line before and after tables
4. ALWAYS add blank line before and after code blocks
5. Use - for bullets consistently (not * or +)
6. Use language identifier for code fences

Impact:
-------
- Makes BMAD output CommonMark compliant
- Ensures compatibility with ALL markdown parsers, not just GitHub
- Follows industry best practices for professional documentation
- Future-proofs against stricter parser implementations
- Zero content changes - only formatting improved

Testing:
--------
Comprehensive three-phase testing completed:
- Phase 1: Synthetic test validating fix mechanism
- Phase 2: Fresh install end-to-end test (API Gateway project)
- Phase 3: GitHub validation with visual proof

Results: 1,112 lines of formatting improvements, 0 content changes,
100% CommonMark compliance achieved.

Test Evidence:
--------------
Complete test repository with before/after comparison, Mac Markdown.app
screenshot proving the issue, and comprehensive documentation:

rows from older schema versions (without the 'standalone' column) were being
added to CSVs with new schema headers, causing "Invalid Record Length" errors
during parsing.

Added schema upgrade logic to detect old column structure and upgrade preserved
rows by adding missing columns with appropriate default values. This ensures all
CSV rows match the header column count, fixing installation errors.

Fixes column count mismatch in:
- workflow-manifest.csv (added standalone column)
- task-manifest.csv (added standalone column)
- tool-manifest.csv (added standalone column)
- agent-manifest.csv (schema validation for future-proofing)

- Modified tools/cli/platform-codes.yaml to include opencode config
- Modified tools/cli/installers/lib/ide/workflow-command-template.md to
include frontmatter with description as opencode requires this for
commands and adding it to the template by default does not seem to
impact other IDEs
- Modified src/modules/bmm/workflows/workflow-status/workflow.yaml

60475ac6f8 feat(tools/cli): Refactor Qwen IDE configuration logic to support modular command structure (#762)
- Unify BMad directory name from 'BMad' to lowercase 'bmad'
- Use shared utility functions [getAgentsFromBmad] and [getTasksFromBmad] to fetch agents and tasks
- Create independent subdirectory structures (agents, tasks) for each module
- Update file writing paths to store TOML files by module classification
- Remove legacy QWEN.md merged documentation generation logic
- Add TOML metadata header support (not available in previous versions)
- Clean up old version configuration directories (including uppercase BMad and bmad-method)

69d1f75435 fix: remove empty tasks directories from Claude Code installer (#776)
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/

31666c1f0f feat: add agent schema validation with comprehensive testing (#774)
Introduce automated validation for agent YAML files using Zod to ensure
schema compliance across all agent definitions. This feature validates
17 agent files across core and module directories, catching structural
errors and maintaining consistency.

Schema Validation (tools/schema/agent.js):
- Zod-based schema validating metadata, persona, menu, prompts, and critical actions
- Module-aware validation: module field required for src/modules/**/agents/,
  optional for src/core/agents/
- Enforces kebab-case unique triggers and at least one command target per menu item
- Validates persona.principles as array (not string)
- Comprehensive refinements for data integrity

CLI Validator (tools/validate-agent-schema.js):
- Scans src/{core,modules/*}/agents/*.agent.yaml
- Parses with js-yaml and validates using Zod schema
- Reports detailed errors with file paths and field paths
- Exits 1 on failures, 0 on success
- Accepts optional project_root parameter for testing

Testing (679 lines across 3 test files):
- test/test-cli-integration.sh: CLI behavior and error handling tests
- test/unit-test-schema.js: Direct schema validation unit tests
- test/test-agent-schema.js: Comprehensive fixture-based tests
- 50 test fixtures covering valid and invalid scenarios
- ESLint configured to support CommonJS test files
- Prettier configured to ignore intentionally broken fixtures

CI Integration (.github/workflows/lint.yaml):
- Renamed from format-check.yaml to lint.yaml
- Added schema-validation job running npm run validate:schemas
- Runs in parallel with prettier and eslint jobs
- Validates on all pull requests

Data Cleanup:
- Fixed src/core/agents/bmad-master.agent.yaml: converted persona.principles
  from string to array format

Documentation:
- Updated schema-classification.md with validation section
- Documents validator usage, enforcement rules, and CI integration

- Update IDE configuration with proper location handling and tilde expansion
- Add interactive prompt for users to select installation locations
- Update documentation in bmad-kb.md to include Augment Code in supported IDEs
- Implement setupAugmentCode method with location selection and file installation

This enables BMAD Method integration with Augment Code's custom command system,
allowing users to access BMad agents via /agent-name slash commands in both
global and project-specific contexts.

* Added options to choose the rule locations

* Update instruction to match with namespace for commands

* Update instruction to match with namespace for commands

* Renamed Augment Code to Auggie CLI (Augment Code)

ab70baca59 fix: remove incorrect else branch causing flatten command regression (#452)
This fixes a regression bug where the flatten command would fail with an
error message even when valid arguments were provided.

The bug was:
- First introduced in commit 0fdbca7
- Fixed in commit fab9d5e (v5.0.0-beta.2)
- Accidentally reintroduced in commit ed53943

The else branch at lines 130-134 was incorrectly handling the case when
users provided arguments, showing a misleading error about
'no arguments provided' when arguments were actually present.

Fixes all flatten command variations:
- npx bmad-method flatten
- npx bmad-method flatten --input /path
- npx bmad-method flatten --output file.xml
- npx bmad-method flatten --input /path --output file.xml

b6fe44b16e fix: alphabetize agent commands and dependencies for improved organization
- Alphabetized all commands in agent files while maintaining help first and exit last
- Alphabetized all dependency categories (checklists, data, tasks, templates, utils, workflows)
- Alphabetized items within each dependency category across all 10 core agents:
  - analyst.md: commands and dependencies reorganized
  - architect.md: commands and dependencies reorganized
  - bmad-master.md: commands and dependencies reorganized, fixed YAML parsing issue
  - bmad-orchestrator.md: commands and dependencies reorganized
  - dev.md: commands and dependencies reorganized
  - pm.md: commands and dependencies reorganized
  - po.md: commands and dependencies reorganized
  - qa.md: commands and dependencies reorganized
  - sm.md: commands and dependencies reorganized
  - ux-expert.md: commands and dependencies reorganized
- Fixed YAML parsing error in bmad-master.md by properly quoting activation instructions
- Rebuilt all agent bundles and team bundles successfully
- Updated expansion pack bundles including new creative writing agents

This improves consistency and makes it easier to locate specific commands and dependencies
across all agent configurations.

d563266b97 feat: install Cursor rules to subdirectory (#438)
* feat: install Cursor rules to subdirectory

Implement feature request #376 to avoid filename collisions and confusion
between repo-specific and BMAD-specific rules.

Changes:
- Move Cursor rules from .cursor/rules/ to .cursor/rules/bmad/
- Update installer configuration to use new subdirectory structure
- Update upgrader to reflect new rule directory path

This keeps BMAD Method files separate from existing project rules,
reducing chance of conflicts and improving organization.

Fixes #376

* chore: correct formatting in cursor rules directory path

b7361d244c Update dependency-resolver.js (#286)
When cloning a project in a Windows environment, Git may automatically convert line endings from `\n` to `\r\n`. This can cause a mismatch in the `yaml` configuration, leading to a build failure. To resolve this, a step has been added to enforce the replacement of `\r` characters, ensuring the build can proceed normally.

3af3d33d4a feat: enhance QA agent as senior developer with code review capabilities and major brownfield improvements
This release introduces significant enhancements across multiple areas:

QA Agent Transformation:
- Transform QA agent into senior developer role with active code refactoring abilities
- Add review-story task enabling QA to review, refactor, and improve code directly
- Integrate QA review step into standard development workflow (SM → Dev → QA)
- QA can fix small issues directly and leave checklist for remaining items
- Updated dev agent to maintain File List for QA review focus

Knowledge Base Improvements:
- Add extensive brownfield development documentation and best practices
- Clarify Web UI vs IDE usage with cost optimization strategies
- Document PRD-first approach for large codebases/monorepos
- Add comprehensive expansion packs explanation
- Update IDE workflow to include QA review step
- Clarify agent usage (bmad-master vs specialized agents)

Brownfield Enhancements:
- Create comprehensive Working in the Brownfield guide
- Add document-project task to analyst agent capabilities
- Implement PRD-first workflow option for focused documentation
- Transform document-project to create practical brownfield architecture docs
- Document technical debt, workarounds, and real-world constraints
- Reference actual files instead of duplicating content
- Add impact analysis when PRD is provided

Documentation Task Improvements:
- Simplify to always create ONE unified architecture document
- Add deep codebase analysis phase with targeted questions
- Focus on documenting reality including technical debt
- Include Quick Reference section with key file paths
- Add practical sections: useful commands, debugging tips, known issues

Workflow Updates:
- Update all 6 workflow files with detailed IDE transition instructions
- Add clear SM → Dev → QA → Dev cycle explanation
- Emphasize Gemini Web for brownfield analysis (1M+ context advantage)
- Support both PRD-first and document-first approaches

This release significantly improves the brownfield development experience and introduces a powerful shift-left QA approach with senior developer mentoring.

# [4.12.0](https://github.com/bmadcode/BMAD-METHOD/compare/v4.11.0...v4.12.0) (2025-06-23)

### Features

* **dev-agent:** add quality gates to prevent task completion with failing validations ([#261](https://github.com/bmadcode/BMAD-METHOD/issues/261)) ([45110ff](45110ffffe))

45110ffffe feat(dev-agent): add quality gates to prevent task completion with failing validations (#261)
Issue Being Solved:
Dev agent was marking tasks as complete even when tests/lint/typecheck failed,
causing broken code to reach merge and creating technical debt.

Gap in System:
Missing explicit quality gates in dev agent configuration to block task completion
until all automated validations pass.

Solution:
- Add "Quality Gate Discipline" core principle
- Update task execution flow: Execute validations→Only if ALL pass→Update [x]
- Add "Failing validations" to blocking conditions
- Simplify completion criteria to focus on validation success

Alignment with BMAD Core Principles:
- Quality-First: Prevents defective code progression through workflow
- Agent Excellence: Ensures dev agent maintains high standards
- Technology Agnostic: Uses generic "validations" concept vs specific tools

Small, focused change that strengthens existing dev agent without architectural changes.

5c8485d09f fix: resolve web bundles directory path when using relative paths in NPX installer
When users enter "." as the installation directory, the web bundles directory
path was not being resolved correctly, causing the bundles to not be copied.
This fix ensures the web bundles directory is resolved using the same logic
as the main installation directory, resolving relative paths from the original
working directory where npx was executed.

# Contributor Covenant Code of Conduct
## Our Pledge
We as members, contributors, and leaders pledge to make participation in our
community a harassment-free experience for everyone, regardless of age, body
size, visible or invisible disability, ethnicity, sex characteristics, gender
identity and expression, level of experience, education, socio-economic status,
nationality, personal appearance, race, religion, or sexual identity
and orientation.
We pledge to act and interact in ways that contribute to an open, welcoming,
diverse, inclusive, and healthy community.
## Our Standards
Examples of behavior that contributes to a positive environment for our
community include:
* Demonstrating empathy and kindness toward other people
* Being respectful of differing opinions, viewpoints, and experiences
* Giving and gracefully accepting constructive feedback
* Accepting responsibility and apologizing to those affected by our mistakes,
and learning from the experience
* Focusing on what is best not just for us as individuals, but for the
overall community
Examples of unacceptable behavior include:
* The use of sexualized language or imagery, and sexual attention or
advances of any kind
* Trolling, insulting or derogatory comments, and personal or political attacks
* Public or private harassment
* Publishing others' private information, such as a physical or email
address, without their explicit permission
* Other conduct which could reasonably be considered inappropriate in a
professional setting
## Enforcement Responsibilities
Community leaders are responsible for clarifying and enforcing our standards of
acceptable behavior and will take appropriate and fair corrective action in
response to any behavior that they deem inappropriate, threatening, offensive,
or harmful.
Community leaders have the right and responsibility to remove, edit, or reject
comments, commits, code, wiki edits, issues, and other contributions that are
not aligned to this Code of Conduct, and will communicate reasons for moderation
decisions when appropriate.
## Scope
This Code of Conduct applies within all community spaces, and also applies when
an individual is officially representing the community in public spaces.
Examples of representing our community include using an official e-mail address,
posting via an official social media account, or acting as an appointed
representative at an online or offline event.
## Enforcement
Instances of abusive, harassing, or otherwise unacceptable behavior may be
reported to the community leaders responsible for enforcement at
the official BMAD Discord server (<https://discord.com/invite/gk8jAdXWmj>) - DM a moderator or flag a post.
All complaints will be reviewed and investigated promptly and fairly.
All community leaders are obligated to respect the privacy and security of the
reporter of any incident.
## Enforcement Guidelines
Community leaders will follow these Community Impact Guidelines in determining
the consequences for any action they deem in violation of this Code of Conduct:
### 1. Correction
**Community Impact**: Use of inappropriate language or other behavior deemed
unprofessional or unwelcome in the community.
**Consequence**: A private, written warning from community leaders, providing
clarity around the nature of the violation and an explanation of why the
behavior was inappropriate. A public apology may be requested.
### 2. Warning
**Community Impact**: A violation through a single incident or series
of actions.
**Consequence**: A warning with consequences for continued behavior. No
interaction with the people involved, including unsolicited interaction with
those enforcing the Code of Conduct, for a specified period of time. This
includes avoiding interactions in community spaces as well as external channels
like social media. Violating these terms may lead to a temporary or
permanent ban.
### 3. Temporary Ban
**Community Impact**: A serious violation of community standards, including
sustained inappropriate behavior.
**Consequence**: A temporary ban from any sort of interaction or public
communication with the community for a specified period of time. No public or
private interaction with the people involved, including unsolicited interaction
with those enforcing the Code of Conduct, is allowed during this period.
Violating these terms may lead to a permanent ban.
### 4. Permanent Ban
**Community Impact**: Demonstrating a pattern of violation of community
standards, including sustained inappropriate behavior, harassment of an
individual, or aggression toward or disparagement of classes of individuals.
**Consequence**: A permanent ban from any sort of public interaction within
the community.

# Roo Code Custom Modes for BMAD-METHOD
This directory contains custom mode configurations for Roo Code to enable BMAD agent personalities.
## Setup
The `.roomodes` file defines all BMAD agents as custom modes using the proper `customModes:` structure. Modes are automatically available in Roo Code when you open this project.
## Available Modes
## Usage
In Roo Code:
1. Open the mode selector (usually in the status bar)
2. Select any BMAD agent mode
3. The AI will adopt that agent's personality and expertise
## File Permissions
Each agent has specific file access permissions:
- **Analysts, PM, PO, SM**: Limited to documentation files (.md, .txt)
- **Architect**: Architecture docs and configs (.md, .txt, .yml, .yaml, .json)
- **QA**: Test files and documentation
- **UX Expert**: Design-related files (.md, .css, .scss, .html, .jsx, .tsx)
- **Developer, Orchestrator, Master**: Full edit access to all files

# Contributing to this project
# Contributing to BMad
Thank you for considering contributing to this project! This document outlines the process for contributing and some guidelines to follow.
Thank you for considering contributing! We believe in **Human Amplification, Not Replacement** — bringing out the best thinking in both humans and AI through guided collaboration.
🆕 **New to GitHub or pull requests?** Check out our [beginner-friendly Pull Request Guide](docs/how-to-contribute-with-pull-requests.md) first!
💬 **Discord**: [Join our community](https://discord.gg/gk8jAdXWmj) for real-time discussions, questions, and collaboration.
Also note, we use the discussions feature in GitHub to have a community to discuss potential ideas, uses, additions and enhancements.
---
## Our Philosophy
BMad strengthens human-AI collaboration through specialized agents and guided workflows. Every contribution should answer: **"Does this make humans and AI better together?"**
**✅ What we welcome:**
- Enhanced collaboration patterns and workflows
- Improved agent personas and prompts
- Domain-specific modules leveraging BMad Core
- Better planning and context continuity
**❌ What doesn't fit:**
- Purely automated solutions that sideline humans
- Complexity that creates barriers to adoption
- Features that fragment BMad Core's foundation
---
## Reporting Issues
**ALL bug reports and feature requests MUST go through GitHub Issues.**
### Before Creating an Issue
1. **Search existing issues** — Use the GitHub issue search to check if your bug or feature has already been reported
2. **Search closed issues** — Your issue may have been fixed or addressed previously
3. **Check discussions** — Some conversations happen in [GitHub Discussions](https://github.com/bmad-code-org/BMAD-METHOD/discussions)
### Bug Reports
After searching, if the bug is unreported, use the [bug report template](https://github.com/bmad-code-org/BMAD-METHOD/issues/new?template=bug_report.md) and include:
- Clear description of the problem
- Steps to reproduce
- Expected vs actual behavior
- Your environment (model, IDE, BMad version)
- Screenshots or error messages if applicable
### Feature Requests
After searching, use the [feature request template](https://github.com/bmad-code-org/BMAD-METHOD/issues/new?template=feature_request.md) and explain:
- What the feature is
- Why it would benefit the BMad community
- How it strengthens human-AI collaboration
**For community modules**, review [TRADEMARK.md](TRADEMARK.md) for proper naming conventions (e.g., "My Module (BMad Community Module)").
---
## Before Starting Work
⚠️ **Required before submitting PRs:**
| Work Type | Requirement |
| ------------- | ---------------------------------------------- |
| Bug fix | An open issue (create one if it doesn't exist) |
| Feature | An open feature request issue |
| Large changes | Discussion via issue first |
**Why?** This prevents wasted effort on work that may not align with project direction.
---
## Pull Request Guidelines
### Target Branch
Submit PRs to the `main` branch.
### PR Size
- **Ideal**: 200-400 lines of code changes
- **Maximum**: 800 lines (excluding generated files)
- **One feature/fix per PR**
If your change exceeds 800 lines, break it into smaller PRs that can be reviewed independently.
### New to Pull Requests?
1. **Fork** the repository
2. **Clone** your fork: `git clone https://github.com/YOUR-USERNAME/bmad-method.git`
3. **Create a branch**: `git checkout -b fix/description` or `git checkout -b feature/description`
4. **Make changes** — keep them focused
5. **Commit**: `git commit -m "fix: correct typo in README"`
6. **Push**: `git push origin fix/description`
7. **Open PR** from your fork on GitHub
### PR Description Template
```markdown
## What
[1-2 sentences describing WHAT changed]
## Why
[1-2 sentences explaining WHY this change is needed]
Fixes #[issue number]
## How
- [2-3 bullets listing HOW you implemented it]
-
## Testing
[1-2 sentences on how you tested this]
```
**Keep it under 200 words.**
### Commit Messages
Use conventional commits:
- `feat:` New feature
- `fix:` Bug fix
- `docs:` Documentation only
- `refactor:` Code change (no bug/feature)
- `test:` Adding tests
- `chore:` Build/tools changes
Keep messages under 72 characters. Each commit = one logical change.
---
## What Makes a Good PR?
| ✅ Do | ❌ Don't |
| --------------------------- | ---------------------------- |
| Change one thing per PR | Mix unrelated changes |
| Clear title and description | Vague or missing explanation |
| Reference related issues | Reformat entire files |
| Small, focused commits | Copy your whole project |
| Work on a branch | Work directly on `main` |
---
## Prompt & Agent Guidelines
- Keep dev agents lean — focus on coding context, not documentation
- Web/planning agents can be larger with complex tasks
- Everything is natural language (markdown) — no code in core framework
- Use BMad modules for domain-specific features
- Validate YAML schemas: `npm run validate:schemas`
---
## Need Help?
- 💬 **Discord**: [Join the community](https://discord.gg/gk8jAdXWmj)
- 🐛 **Bugs**: Use the [bug report template](https://github.com/bmad-code-org/BMAD-METHOD/issues/new?template=bug_report.md)
- 💡 **Features**: Use the [feature request template](https://github.com/bmad-code-org/BMAD-METHOD/issues/new?template=feature_request.md)

## How to Contribute
### Reporting Bugs
- Check if the bug has already been reported in the Issues section
- Include detailed steps to reproduce the bug
- Include any relevant logs or screenshots
### Suggesting Features
- Check if the feature has already been suggested in the Issues section, and consider using the discussions tab in GitHub also. Explain the feature in detail and why it would be valuable.
### Pull Request Process
Please only propose small granular commits! If its large or significant, please discuss in the discussions tab and open up an issue first. I do not want you to waste your time on a potentially very large PR to have it rejected because it is not aligned or deviates from other planned changes. Communicate and lets work together to build and improve this great community project!
1. Fork the repository
2. Create a new branch (`git checkout -b feature/your-feature-name`)
3. Make your changes
4. Run any tests or linting to ensure quality
5. Commit your changes with clear, descriptive messages following our commit message convention
6. Push to your branch (`git push origin feature/your-feature-name`)
7. Open a Pull Request against the main branch
## Commit Message Convention
PRs with a wall of AI Generated marketing hype that is unclear in what is being proposed will be closed and rejected. Your best change to contribute is with a small clear PR description explaining, what is the issue being solved or gap in the system being filled. Also explain how it leads to the core guiding principles of the project.
## Code Style
- Follow the existing code style and conventions
- Write clear comments for complex logic

## Overview
BMAD-METHOD (Breakthrough Method of Agile AI-Driven Development) revolutionizes software development by providing specialized AI agents for every role in an Agile team. Each agent has deep expertise in their domain and can collaborate to deliver complete software projects.
### Why BMAD?
- **🎯 Specialized Expertise**: Each agent is an expert in their specific role
- **🔄 True Agile Workflow**: Follows real Agile methodologies and best practices
- **📦 Modular Design**: Use one agent or an entire team
- **🛠️ IDE Integration**: Works seamlessly with Cursor, Claude Code, and Windsurf
- **🌐 Platform Agnostic**: Use with ChatGPT, Claude, Gemini, or any AI platform
## Installation
### Method 1: Pre-Built Web Bundles (Fastest) 📦
For ChatGPT, Claude, or Gemini web interfaces:
1. Choose a bundle:
- **Recommended**: `.bmad-core/web-bundles/teams/team-fullstack.txt` (complete development team)
- Or pick from individual agents in `.bmad-core/web-bundles/agents/`
2. Upload to your AI platform (Gemini Gem, CustomGPT, or directly in chat)
3. Set instructions: "Your critical operating instructions are attached, do not break character as directed"
4. Type `/help` to see available commands
### Method 2: CLI Installer (For IDEs) 🎯
**Prerequisites**: Install [Node.js](https://nodejs.org) v20+ first
Install directly into your project: `npx bmad-method install`
**Supported IDEs:**
The BMad Method works with any IDE, but has built-in integration for:
- `cursor` - Cursor IDE with @agent commands
- `claude-code` - Claude Code with /agent commands
- `windsurf` - Windsurf with @agent commands
- `roo` - Roo Code with custom modes (see `.roomodes`)
- More coming soon - BUT ITS easy to use with ANY IDE - just copy the bmad-code folder to your project, and rename it .bmad-code.
## Available Agents
### Core Development Team
| Agent | Role | Specialty |
| ----------- | ------------------ | --------------------------------------------- |
| `analyst` | Business Analyst | market analysis, brainstorming, project brief |
| `pm` | Product Manager | Product strategy, roadmaps, PRDs |
| `architect` | Solution Architect | System design, technical architecture |
| `dev` | Developer | Code implementation across all technologies |
| `qa` | QA Specialist | Testing strategies, quality assurance |
| `ux-expert` | UX Designer | User experience, UI design, prototypes |
| `po` | Product Owner | Backlog management, story validation |
| `sm` | Scrum Master | Sprint planning, story creation |
### Meta Agents
| Agent | Role | Specialty |
| ------------------- | ---------------- | ------------------------------------------------------------------- |
| `bmad-orchestrator` | Team Coordinator | Multi-agent workflows, role switching, is part of every team bundle |
| `bmad-master` | Universal Expert | All capabilities without switching |
## Usage
### With IDE Integration
After installation with `--ide` flag:
````bash
# In Cursor
@pm Create a PRD for a task management app
# In Claude Code
/architect Design a microservices architecture
# In Windsurf
@dev Implement story 1.3
```text
### With Web UI (ChatGPT/Claude/Gemini)
After uploading a bundle you can ask /help of the agent to learn what it can do
### CLI Commands
**Prerequisites**: [Node.js](https://nodejs.org) v20+
```bash
# List all available agents
npx bmad-method list
# Install or update (automatically detects existing installations)
npx bmad-method install
# Check installation status
npx bmad-method status
````
### Upgrading from V3 to V4
If you have an existing BMAD-METHOD V3 project, simply run the installer in your project directory:
````bash
npx bmad-method install
# The installer will automatically detect your V3 installation and offer to upgrade
```text
The upgrade process will:
1. Create a backup of your V3 files in `.bmad-v3-backup/`
2. Install the new V4 `.bmad-core/` structure
3. Migrate your documents (PRD, Architecture, Stories, Epics)
4. Set up IDE integration for all V4 agents
5. Create an install manifest for future updates
After upgrading:
1. Review your documents in the `docs/` folder
2. Use `@bmad-master` agent to run the `doc-migration-task` to align your documents with V4 templates
3. If you have separate front-end and backend architecture docs, the migration task will help merge them into a unified `full-stack-architecture.md`
**Note**: The agents in `.bmad-core/` fully replace the items in `bmad-agent/`.
## Teams & Workflows
### Pre-Configured Teams
Save context by using specialized teams:
- **Team All**: Complete Agile team with all 10 agents
- **Team Fullstack**: Frontend + Backend development focus
- **Team No-UI**: Backend/API development without UX
### Workflows
Structured approaches for different scenarios:
- **Greenfield**: Starting new projects (fullstack/service/UI)
- **Brownfield**: Enhancing existing projects
- **Simple**: Quick prototypes and MVPs
- **Complex**: Enterprise and large-scale projects

## Documentation & Guides
Follow the installer prompts, then open your AI IDE (Claude Code, Cursor, Windsurf, etc.) in the project folder.
### Architecture & Technical
> **Not sure what to do?** Run `/bmad-help` — it tells you exactly what's next and what's optional. You can also ask it questions like:
- 🏗️ [Core Architecture](docs/core-architecture.md) - Complete technical architecture and system design
- 📖 [User Guide](docs/user-guide.md) - Comprehensive guide to using BMAD-METHOD effectively
- `/bmad-help How should I build a web app for my TShirt Business that can scale to millions?`
- `/bmad-help I just finished the architecture, I am not sure what to do next`
### Workflow Guides
And the amazing thing is BMad Help evolves depending on what modules you install also!
- `/bmad-help Im interested in really exploring creative ways to demo BMad at work, what do you recommend to help plan a great slide deck and compelling narrative?`, and if you have the Creative Intelligence Suite installed, it will offer you different or complimentary advice than if you just have BMad Method Module installed!
- 📚 [Universal BMAD Workflow Guide](docs/bmad-workflow-guide.md) - Core workflow that applies to all IDEs
- 🎯 [Cursor Guide](docs/cursor-guide.md) - Complete workflow for Cursor users

# 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
VALIDATION APPROACH:
For each section, you must:
1. Deep Analysis - Don't just check boxes, thoroughly analyze each item against the provided documentation
2. Evidence-Based - Cite specific sections or quotes from the documents when validating
3. Critical Thinking - Question assumptions and identify gaps, not just confirm what's present
4. Risk Assessment - Consider what could go wrong with each architectural decision
EXECUTION MODE:
Ask the user if they want to work through the checklist:
- Section by section (interactive mode) - Review each section, present findings, get confirmation before proceeding
- All at once (comprehensive mode) - Complete full analysis and present comprehensive report at end]]
## 1. REQUIREMENTS ALIGNMENT
[[LLM: Before evaluating this section, take a moment to fully understand the product's purpose and goals from the PRD. What is the core problem being solved? Who are the users? What are the critical success factors? Keep these in mind as you validate alignment. For each item, don't just check if it's mentioned - verify that the architecture provides a concrete technical solution.]]
### 1.1 Functional Requirements Coverage
- [ ] Architecture supports all functional requirements in the PRD
- [ ] Technical approaches for all epics and stories are addressed
- [ ] Edge cases and performance scenarios are considered
- [ ] All required integrations are accounted for
- [ ] User journeys are supported by the technical architecture
### 1.2 Non-Functional Requirements Alignment
- [ ] Performance requirements are addressed with specific solutions
- [ ] Scalability considerations are documented with approach
- [ ] Security requirements have corresponding technical controls
- [ ] Reliability and resilience approaches are defined
- [ ] Compliance requirements have technical implementations
### 1.3 Technical Constraints Adherence
- [ ] All technical constraints from PRD are satisfied
- [ ] Platform/language requirements are followed
- [ ] Infrastructure constraints are accommodated
- [ ] Third-party service constraints are addressed
- [ ] Organizational technical standards are followed
## 2. ARCHITECTURE FUNDAMENTALS
[[LLM: Architecture clarity is crucial for successful implementation. As you review this section, visualize the system as if you were explaining it to a new developer. Are there any ambiguities that could lead to misinterpretation? Would an AI agent be able to implement this architecture without confusion? Look for specific diagrams, component definitions, and clear interaction patterns.]]

# 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.

# Product Owner (PO) Master Validation Checklist
This checklist serves as a comprehensive framework for the Product Owner to validate project plans before development execution. It adapts intelligently based on project type (greenfield vs brownfield) and includes UI/UX considerations when applicable.
[[LLM: INITIALIZATION INSTRUCTIONS - PO MASTER CHECKLIST
PROJECT TYPE DETECTION:
First, determine the project type by checking:
1. Is this a GREENFIELD project (new from scratch)?
- Look for: New project initialization, no existing codebase references
- Check for: prd.md, architecture.md, new project setup stories
2. Is this a BROWNFIELD project (enhancing existing system)?
- Look for: References to existing codebase, enhancement/modification language
- Check for: brownfield-prd.md, brownfield-architecture.md, existing system analysis
3. Does the project include UI/UX components?
- Check for: frontend-architecture.md, UI/UX specifications, design files
- Look for: Frontend stories, component specifications, user interface mentions
DOCUMENT REQUIREMENTS:
Based on project type, ensure you have access to:
For GREENFIELD projects:
- prd.md - The Product Requirements Document
- architecture.md - The system architecture
- frontend-architecture.md - If UI/UX is involved
- All epic and story definitions
For BROWNFIELD projects:
- brownfield-prd.md - The brownfield enhancement requirements
- brownfield-architecture.md - The enhancement architecture
- Existing project codebase access (CRITICAL - cannot proceed without this)
- Current deployment configuration and infrastructure details
- Database schemas, API documentation, monitoring setup
SKIP INSTRUCTIONS:
- Skip sections marked [[BROWNFIELD ONLY]] for greenfield projects
- Skip sections marked [[GREENFIELD ONLY]] for brownfield projects
- Skip sections marked [[UI/UX ONLY]] for backend-only projects
- Note all skipped sections in your final report
VALIDATION APPROACH:
1. Deep Analysis - Thoroughly analyze each item against documentation
2. Evidence-Based - Cite specific sections or code when validating
3. Critical Thinking - Question assumptions and identify gaps
4. Risk Assessment - Consider what could go wrong with each decision
EXECUTION MODE:
Ask the user if they want to work through the checklist:
- Section by section (interactive mode) - Review each section, get confirmation before proceeding
- All at once (comprehensive mode) - Complete full analysis and present report at end]]

# 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. Focus on whether a competent developer can succeed with this story.]]

# BMAD Knowledge Base
## Overview
BMAD-METHOD (Breakthrough Method of Agile AI-driven Development) is a framework that combines AI agents with Agile development methodologies. The v4 system introduces a modular architecture with improved dependency management, bundle optimization, and support for both web and IDE environments.
### Key Features
- **Modular Agent System**: Specialized AI agents for each Agile role
- **Build System**: Automated dependency resolution and optimization
- **Dual Environment Support**: Optimized for both web UIs and IDEs
- **Reusable Resources**: Portable templates, tasks, and checklists
- **Slash Command Integration**: Quick agent switching and control
## Core Philosophy
### Vibe CEO'ing
You are the "Vibe CEO" - thinking like a CEO with unlimited resources and a singular vision. Your AI agents are your high-powered team, and your role is to:
- **Direct**: Provide clear instructions and objectives
- **Refine**: Iterate on outputs to achieve quality
- **Oversee**: Maintain strategic alignment across all agents
### Core Principles
1. **MAXIMIZE_AI_LEVERAGE**: Push the AI to deliver more. Challenge outputs and iterate.
2. **QUALITY_CONTROL**: You are the ultimate arbiter of quality. Review all outputs.
3. **STRATEGIC_OVERSIGHT**: Maintain the high-level vision and ensure alignment.
4. **ITERATIVE_REFINEMENT**: Expect to revisit steps. This is not a linear process.
5. **CLEAR_INSTRUCTIONS**: Precise requests lead to better outputs.
6. **DOCUMENTATION_IS_KEY**: Good inputs (briefs, PRDs) lead to good outputs.
7. **START_SMALL_SCALE_FAST**: Test concepts, then expand.
8. **EMBRACE_THE_CHAOS**: Adapt and overcome challenges.
## IDE Development Workflow
1. Shard the PRD (And Architecture documents if they exist also based on workflow type) using the Doc Shard task. The BMad-Master agent can help you do this. You will select the task, provide the doc to shard and the output folder. for example: `BMad Master, please Shard the docs/prd.md to the doc/prd/ folder` - this should ask you to use the md-tree-parser which is recommended, but either way shoudl result in multiple documents being created in the folder docs/prd.
2. If you have fullstack, front end and or back end architecture documents you will want to follow the same thing, but shard all of these to an architecture folder instead of a prd folder.
3. Ensure that you have at least one epic-n.md file in your prd folder, with the stories in order to develop.
4. The docs or architecture folder or prd folder should have a source tree document and coding standards at a minimum. These are used by the dev agent, and the many other sharded docs are used by the SM agent.
5. Use a new chat window to allow the SM agent to `draft the next story`.
6. If you agree the story is correct, mark it as approved in the status field, and then start a new chat window with the dev agent.
7. Ask the dev agent to implement the next story. If you draft the story file into the chat it will save time for the dev to have to find what the next one is. The dev should follow the tasks and subtasks marking them off as they are completed. The dev agent will also leave notes potentially for the SM to know about any deviations that might have occured to help draft the next story.
8. Once complete and you have verified, mark it done, and start a new chat. Ask the SM to draft the next story - repeating the cycle.
With this work flow, there is only 1 story in progress at a time, worked sequentially.

# Advanced Elicitation Task
## Purpose
- Provide optional reflective and brainstorming actions to enhance content quality
- Enable deeper exploration of ideas through structured elicitation techniques
- Support iterative refinement through multiple analytical perspectives
## Task Instructions
### 1. Section Context and Review
[[LLM: When invoked after outputting a section:
1. First, provide a brief 1-2 sentence summary of what the user should look for in the section just presented (e.g., "Please review the technology choices for completeness and alignment with your project needs. Pay special attention to version numbers and any missing categories.")
2. If the section contains Mermaid diagrams, explain each diagram briefly before offering elicitation options (e.g., "The component diagram shows the main system modules and their interactions. Notice how the API Gateway routes requests to different services.")
3. If the section contains multiple distinct items (like multiple components, multiple patterns, etc.), 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)
4. Then present the action list as specified below.]]
### 2. Ask for Review and Present Action List
[[LLM: Ask the user to review the drafted section. In the SAME message, inform them that they can suggest additions, removals, or modifications, OR they can select an action by number from the 'Advanced Reflective, Elicitation & Brainstorming Actions'. If there are multiple items in the section, mention they can specify which item(s) to apply the action to. Then, present ONLY the numbered list (0-9) of these actions. Conclude by stating that selecting 9 will proceed to the next section. Await user selection. If an elicitation action (0-8) is chosen, execute it and then re-offer this combined review/elicitation choice. If option 9 is chosen, or if the user provides direct feedback, proceed accordingly.]]
**Present the numbered list (0-9) with this exact format:**
```text
**Advanced Reflective, Elicitation & Brainstorming Actions**
Choose an action (0-9 - 9 to bypass - HELP for explanation of these options):
0. Expand or Contract for Audience
1. Explain Reasoning (CoT Step-by-Step)
2. Critique and Refine
3. Analyze Logical Flow and Dependencies
4. Assess Alignment with Overall Goals

9. Proceed / No Further Actions
```
### 2. Processing Guidelines
**Do NOT show:**
- The full protocol text with `[[LLM: ...]]` instructions
- Detailed explanations of each option unless executing or the user asks, when giving the definition you can modify to tie its relevance
- Any internal template markup
**After user selection from the list:**
- Execute the chosen action according to the protocol instructions below
- Ask if they want to select another action or proceed with option 9 once complete
- Continue until user selects option 9 or indicates completion
## Action Definitions
0. Expand or Contract for Audience
[[LLM: Ask the user whether they want to 'expand' on the content (add more detail, elaborate) or 'contract' it (simplify, clarify, make more concise). Also, ask if there's a specific target audience they have in mind. Once clarified, perform the expansion or contraction from your current role's perspective, tailored to the specified audience if provided.]]
1. Explain Reasoning (CoT Step-by-Step)
[[LLM: Explain the step-by-step thinking process, characteristic of your role, that you used to arrive at the current proposal for this content.]]
2. Critique and Refine
[[LLM: From your current role's perspective, review your last output or the current section for flaws, inconsistencies, or areas for improvement, and then suggest a refined version reflecting your expertise.]]
3. Analyze Logical Flow and Dependencies
[[LLM: From your role's standpoint, examine the content's structure for logical progression, internal consistency, and any relevant dependencies. Confirm if elements are presented in an effective order.]]
4. Assess Alignment with Overall Goals
[[LLM: Evaluate how well the current content contributes to the stated overall goals of the document, interpreting this from your specific role's perspective and identifying any misalignments you perceive.]]
5. Identify Potential Risks and Unforeseen Issues
[[LLM: Based on your role's expertise, brainstorm potential risks, overlooked edge cases, or unintended consequences related to the current content or proposal.]]
6. Challenge from Critical Perspective (Self or Other Persona)
[[LLM: Adopt a critical perspective on the current content. If the user specifies another role or persona (e.g., 'as a customer', 'as [Another Persona Name]'), critique the content or play devil's advocate from that specified viewpoint. If no other role is specified, play devil's advocate from your own current persona's viewpoint, arguing against the proposal or current content and highlighting weaknesses or counterarguments specific to your concerns. This can also randomly include YAGNI when appropriate, such as when trimming the scope of an MVP, the perspective might challenge the need for something to cut MVP scope.]]
7. Explore Diverse Alternatives (ToT-Inspired)
[[LLM: From your role's perspective, first broadly brainstorm a range of diverse approaches or solutions to the current topic. Then, from this wider exploration, select and present 2 distinct alternatives, detailing the pros, cons, and potential implications you foresee for each.]]
8. Hindsight is 20/20: The 'If Only...' Reflection
[[LLM: In your current persona, imagine it's a retrospective for a project based on the current content. What's the one 'if only we had known/done X...' that your role would humorously or dramatically highlight, along with the imagined consequences?]]
9. Proceed / No Further Actions
[[LLM: Acknowledge the user's choice to finalize the current work, accept the AI's last output as is, or move on to the next step without selecting another action from this list. Prepare to proceed accordingly.]]

# Correct Course Task
## Purpose
- Guide a structured response to a change trigger using the `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, rescope 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 `change-checklist` (e.g., `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."
- Request the user to select their preferred mode.
- Once the user chooses, confirm the selected mode (e.g., "Okay, we will proceed in Incremental mode."). This chosen mode will govern how subsequent steps in this task are executed.
- **Explain Process:** Briefly 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."
<rule>When asking multiple questions or presenting multiple points for user input at once, number them clearly (e.g., 1., 2a., 2b.) to make it easier for the user to provide specific responses.</rule>
### 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` (Proposal Components).
- 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 Document from Template Task
## Purpose
- Generate documents from any specified template following embedded instructions from the perspective of the selected agent persona
## Instructions
### 1. Identify Template and Context
- Determine which template to use (user-provided or list available for selection to user)
- Agent-specific templates are listed in the agent's dependencies under `templates`. For each template listed, consider it a document the agent can create. So if an agent has:
@{example}
dependencies:
templates: - prd-tmpl - architecture-tmpl
@{/example}
You would offer to create "PRD" and "Architecture" documents when the user asks what you can help with.
- Gather all relevant inputs, or ask for them, or else rely on user providing necessary details to complete the document
- Understand the document purpose and target audience
### 2. Determine Interaction Mode
Confirm with the user their preferred interaction style:
- **Incremental:** Work through chunks of the document.
- **YOLO Mode:** Draft complete document making reasonable assumptions in one shot. (Can be entered also after starting incremental by just typing /yolo)
### 3. Execute Template
- Load specified template from `templates#*` or the /templates directory
- Follow ALL embedded LLM instructions within the template
- Process template markup according to `utils#template-format` conventions
### 4. Template Processing Rules
#### CRITICAL: Never display template markup, LLM instructions, or examples to users
- Replace all {{placeholders}} with actual content
- Execute all [[LLM: instructions]] internally
- Process `<<REPEAT>>` sections as needed
- Evaluate ^^CONDITION^^ blocks and include only if applicable
- Use @{examples} for guidance but never output them
### 5. Content Generation
- **Incremental Mode**: Present each major section for review before proceeding
- **YOLO Mode**: Generate all sections, then review complete document with user
- Apply any elicitation protocols specified in template
- Incorporate user feedback and iterate as needed
### 6. Validation
If template specifies a checklist:
- Run the appropriate checklist against completed document
- Document completion status for each item
- Address any deficiencies found
- Present validation summary to user
### 7. Final Presentation
- Present clean, formatted content only
- Ensure all sections are complete
- DO NOT truncate or summarize content
- Begin directly with document content (no preamble)
- Include any handoff prompts specified in template
## Important Notes
- Template markup is for AI processing only - never expose to users

# 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.
## Inputs for this Task
- Access to the project's documentation repository, specifically:
- `docs/index.md` (hereafter "Index Doc")
- All Epic files - located in one of these locations:
- Primary: `docs/prd/epic-{n}-{description}.md` (e.g., `epic-1-foundation-core-infrastructure.md`)
- Secondary: `docs/epics/epic-{n}-{description}.md`
- User-specified location if not found in above paths
- Existing story files in `docs/stories/`
- Main PRD (hereafter "PRD Doc")
- Main Architecture Document (hereafter "Main Arch Doc")
- Frontend Architecture Document (hereafter "Frontend Arch Doc," if relevant)
- Project Structure Guide (`docs/project-structure.md`)
- Operational Guidelines Document (`docs/operational-guidelines.md`)
- Technology Stack Document (`docs/tech-stack.md`)
- Data Models Document (as referenced in Index Doc)
- API Reference Document (as referenced in Index Doc)
- UI/UX Specifications, Style Guides, Component Guides (if relevant, as referenced in Index Doc)
- The `bmad-core/templates/story-tmpl.md` (hereafter "Story Template")
- The `bmad-core/checklists/story-draft-checklist.md` (hereafter "Story Draft Checklist")
- User confirmation to proceed with story identification and, if needed, to override warnings about incomplete prerequisite stories.
## Task Execution Instructions
### 1. Identify Next Story for Preparation
#### 1.1 Locate Epic Files
- First, determine where epic files are located:
- Check `docs/prd/` for files matching pattern `epic-{n}-*.md`
- If not found, check `docs/epics/` for files matching pattern `epic-{n}-*.md`
- If still not found, ask user: "Unable to locate epic files. Please specify the path where epic files are stored."
- Note: Epic files follow naming convention `epic-{n}-{description}.md` (e.g., `epic-1-foundation-core-infrastructure.md`)
#### 1.2 Review Existing Stories
- Review `docs/stories/` to find the highest-numbered story file.
- **If a highest story file exists (`{lastEpicNum}.{lastStoryNum}.story.md`):**
- Verify its `Status` is 'Done' (or equivalent).
- If not 'Done', present an alert to the user:
```plaintext
ALERT: Found incomplete story:
File: {lastEpicNum}.{lastStoryNum}.story.md
Status: [current status]
Would you like to:
1. View the incomplete story details (instructs user to do so, agent does not display)
2. Cancel new story creation at this time
3. Accept risk & Override to create the next story in draft
Please choose an option (1/2/3):
```
- Proceed only if user selects option 3 (Override) or if the last story was 'Done'.
- If proceeding: Look for the Epic File for `{lastEpicNum}` (e.g., `epic-{lastEpicNum}-*.md`) and check for a story numbered `{lastStoryNum + 1}`. If it exists and its prerequisites (per Epic File) are met, this is the next story.
- Else (story not found or prerequisites not met): The next story is the first story in the next Epic File (e.g., look for `epic-{lastEpicNum + 1}-*.md`, then `epic-{lastEpicNum + 2}-*.md`, etc.) whose prerequisites are met.
- **If no story files exist in `docs/stories/`:**
- The next story is the first story in the first epic file (look for `epic-1-*.md`, then `epic-2-*.md`, etc.) whose prerequisites are met.
- If no suitable story with met prerequisites is found, report to the user that story creation is blocked, specifying what prerequisites are pending. HALT task.
- Announce the identified story to the user: "Identified next story for preparation: {epicNum}.{storyNum} - {Story Title}".
### 2. Gather Core Story Requirements (from Epic File)
- For the identified story, open its parent Epic File (e.g., `epic-{epicNum}-*.md` from the location identified in step 1.1).
- Extract: Exact Title, full Goal/User Story statement, initial list of Requirements, all Acceptance Criteria (ACs), and any predefined high-level Tasks.
- Keep a record of this original epic-defined scope for later deviation analysis.
### 3. Review Previous Story and Extract Dev Notes
[[LLM: This step is CRITICAL for continuity and learning from implementation experience]]
- If this is not the first story (i.e., previous story exists):
- Read the previous story file: `docs/stories/{prevEpicNum}.{prevStoryNum}.story.md`
- Pay special attention to:
- Dev Agent Record sections (especially Completion Notes and Debug Log References)
- Any deviations from planned implementation
- Technical decisions made during implementation
- Challenges encountered and solutions applied
- Any "lessons learned" or notes for future stories
- Extract relevant insights that might inform the current story's preparation
### 4. Gather & Synthesize Architecture Context from Sharded Docs
[[LLM: CRITICAL - You MUST gather technical details from the sharded architecture documents. NEVER make up technical details not found in these documents.]]
#### 4.1 Start with Architecture Index
- Read `docs/architecture/index.md` to understand the full scope of available documentation
- Identify which sharded documents are most relevant to the current story
#### 4.2 Recommended Reading Order Based on Story Type
[[LLM: Read documents in this order, but ALWAYS verify relevance to the specific story. Skip irrelevant sections but NEVER skip documents that contain information needed for the story.]]
**For ALL Stories:**
1. `docs/architecture/tech-stack.md` - Understand technology constraints and versions
2. `docs/architecture/unified-project-structure.md` - Know where code should be placed
3. `docs/architecture/coding-standards.md` - Ensure dev follows project conventions
4. `docs/architecture/testing-strategy.md` - Include testing requirements in tasks
**For Backend/API Stories, additionally read:** 5. `docs/architecture/data-models.md` - Data structures and validation rules 6. `docs/architecture/database-schema.md` - Database design and relationships 7. `docs/architecture/backend-architecture.md` - Service patterns and structure 8. `docs/architecture/rest-api-spec.md` - API endpoint specifications 9. `docs/architecture/external-apis.md` - Third-party integrations (if relevant)
**For Frontend/UI Stories, additionally read:** 5. `docs/architecture/frontend-architecture.md` - Component structure and patterns 6. `docs/architecture/components.md` - Specific component designs 7. `docs/architecture/core-workflows.md` - User interaction flows 8. `docs/architecture/data-models.md` - Frontend data handling
**For Full-Stack Stories:**
- Read both Backend and Frontend sections above
#### 4.3 Extract Story-Specific Technical Details
[[LLM: As you read each document, extract ONLY the information directly relevant to implementing the current story. Do NOT include general information unless it directly impacts the story implementation.]]
For each relevant document, 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
#### 4.4 Document Source References
[[LLM: ALWAYS cite the source document and section for each technical detail you include. This helps the dev agent verify information if needed.]]
Format references as: `[Source: architecture/{filename}.md#{section}]`
### 5. Verify Project Structure Alignment
- Cross-reference the story's requirements and anticipated file manipulations with the Project Structure Guide from `docs/architecture/unified-project-structure.md`.
- Ensure any file paths, component locations, or module names implied by the story align with defined structures.
- Document any structural conflicts, necessary clarifications, or undefined components/paths in a "Project Structure Notes" section within the story draft.
### 6. Populate Story Template with Full Context
- Create a new story file: `docs/stories/{epicNum}.{storyNum}.story.md`.
- Use the Story Template to structure the file.
- Fill in:
- Story `{EpicNum}.{StoryNum}: {Short Title Copied from Epic File}`
- `Status: Draft`
- `Story` (User Story statement from Epic)
- `Acceptance Criteria (ACs)` (from Epic, to be refined if needed based on context)
- **`Dev Technical Guidance` section (CRITICAL):**
[[LLM: This section MUST contain ONLY information extracted from the architecture shards. NEVER invent or assume technical details.]]
- Include ALL relevant technical details gathered from Steps 3 and 4, organized by category:
- **Previous Story Insights**: Key learnings or considerations from the 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 a detailed, sequential list of technical tasks based ONLY on:
- Requirements from the Epic
- Technical constraints from architecture shards
- Project structure from unified-project-structure.md
- Testing requirements from testing-strategy.md
- Each task must reference relevant architecture documentation
- Include unit testing as explicit subtasks based on testing-strategy.md
- Link tasks to ACs where applicable (e.g., `Task 1 (AC: 1, 3)`)
- Add notes on project structure alignment or discrepancies found in Step 5.
- Prepare content for the "Deviation Analysis" based on any conflicts between epic requirements and architecture constraints.
### 7. Run Story Draft Checklist
- Execute the Story Draft Checklist against the prepared story
- Document any issues or gaps identified
- Make necessary adjustments to meet quality standards
- Ensure all technical guidance is properly sourced from architecture docs
### 8. Finalize Story File
- 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"
- Save the story file to `docs/stories/{epicNum}.{storyNum}.story.md`
### 9. Report Completion
Provide a summary to the user including:
- Story created: `{epicNum}.{storyNum} - {Story Title}`
- Status: Draft
- Key technical components included from architecture docs
- Any deviations or conflicts noted between epic and architecture
- Recommendations for story review before approval
- Next steps: Story should be reviewed by PO for approval before dev work begins
[[LLM: Remember - The success of this task depends on extracting real, specific technical details from the architecture shards. The dev agent should have everything they need in the story file without having to search through multiple documents.]]

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

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

- Create `docs/architecture/index.md` listing all architecture shards
3. Verify document cross-references:
- Ensure all documents link to related documentation
- Check that file paths match the actual project structure
- Validate that examples reference real files in the project
4. Provide maintenance guidance:
- Document update triggers (when to update each doc)
- Create a simple checklist for keeping docs current
- Suggest automated validation approaches
5. Summary report including:
- List of all documents created with their paths
- Any gaps or areas needing human review
- Recommendations for project-specific additions
- Next steps for maintaining documentation accuracy
Present a summary of what was created and ask if any additional documentation would be helpful for AI agents working on this specific project.]]
## Success Criteria
- Documentation enables AI agents to understand project context without additional explanation
- All major architectural patterns and coding conventions are captured
- Examples reference actual project files and demonstrate real usage
- Documentation is structured consistently and easy to navigate
- Content is actionable and focuses on what agents need to do, not just understand
## Notes
- This task is designed to work with any project type, language, or framework
- The documentation should reflect the project as it actually is, not as it should be
- Focus on patterns that agents can recognize and replicate consistently
- Include both positive examples (what to do) and negative examples (what to avoid)

# Checklist Validation Task
This task provides instructions for validating documentation against checklists. The agent MUST follow these instructions to ensure thorough and systematic validation of documents.
## Context
The BMAD Method uses various checklists to ensure quality and completeness of different artifacts. Each checklist contains embedded prompts and instructions to guide the LLM through thorough validation and advanced elicitation. The checklists automatically identify their required artifacts and guide the validation process.
## Available Checklists
If the user asks or does not specify a specific checklist, list the checklists available to the agent persona. If the task is being run not with a specific agent, tell the user to check the bmad-core/checklists folder to select the appropriate one to run.
## Instructions
1. **Initial Assessment**
- If user or the task being run provides a checklist name:
- Try fuzzy matching (e.g. "architecture checklist" -> "architect-checklist")
- If multiple matches found, ask user to clarify
- Load the appropriate checklist from bmad-core/checklists/
- If no checklist specified:
- Ask the user which checklist they want to use
- Present the available options from the files in the checklists folder
- Confirm if they want to work through the checklist:
- Section by section (interactive mode - very time consuming)
- All at once (YOLO mode - recommended for checklists, there will be a summary of sections at the end to discuss)
2. **Document and Artifact Gathering**
- Each checklist will specify its required documents/artifacts at the beginning
- Follow the checklist's specific instructions for what to gather, generally a file can be resolved in the docs folder, if not or unsure, halt and ask or confirm with the user.
3. **Checklist Processing**
If in interactive mode:
- Work through each section of the checklist one at a time
- For each section:
- Review all items in the section following instructions for that section embedded in the checklist
- Check each item against the relevant documentation or artifacts as appropriate
- Present summary of findings for that section, highlighting warnings, errors and non applicable items (rationale for non-applicability).
- Get user confirmation before proceeding to next section or if any thing major do we need to halt and take corrective action
If in YOLO mode:
- Process all sections at once
- Create a comprehensive report of all findings
- Present the complete analysis to the user
4. **Validation Approach**
For each checklist item:
- Read and understand the requirement
- Look for evidence in the documentation that satisfies the requirement
- Consider both explicit mentions and implicit coverage
- Aside from this, follow all checklist llm instructions
- Mark items as:
- ✅ PASS: Requirement clearly met
- ❌ FAIL: Requirement not met or insufficient coverage
- ⚠️ PARTIAL: Some aspects covered but needs improvement
- N/A: Not applicable to this case
5. **Section Analysis**
For each section:
- think step by step to calculate pass rate
- Identify common themes in failed items
- Provide specific recommendations for improvement
- In interactive mode, discuss findings with user
- Document any user decisions or explanations
6. **Final Report**
Prepare a summary that includes:
- Overall checklist completion status
- Pass rates by section
- List of failed items with context
- Specific recommendations for improvement
- Any sections or items marked as N/A with justification
## Checklist Execution Methodology
Each checklist now contains embedded LLM prompts and instructions that will:
1. **Guide thorough thinking** - Prompts ensure deep analysis of each section
2. **Request specific artifacts** - Clear instructions on what documents/access is needed
3. **Provide contextual guidance** - Section-specific prompts for better validation
4. **Generate comprehensive reports** - Final summary with detailed findings
The LLM will:
- Execute the complete checklist validation
- Present a final report with pass/fail rates and key findings
- Offer to provide detailed analysis of any section, especially those with warnings or failures

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

# 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)
Brief description of the document's purpose and contents.
### [Another Document](./another.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
Documents within the `another-folder/` directory:
### [Nested Document](./another-folder/document.md)
Description of nested document.
````text
### 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.
