-### Idea: Add search functionality to customer dashboard
-
-**P**roblem:  
-Customers can't find their past orders quickly. They have to scroll through pages of orders to find what they're looking for, leading to 15+ support tickets per week.
-
-**A**udience:  
-All 5,000+ active customers are affected. Support team spends ~10 hours/week helping customers find orders.
-
-**S**olution:  
-Add a search bar that filters by order number, date range, and product name. Success = 50% reduction in order-finding support tickets within 2 weeks of launch.

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

 # Contributing to BMad
 
-Thank you for considering contributing to the BMad project! We believe in **Human Amplification, Not Replacement** - bringing out the best thinking in both humans and AI through guided collaboration.
+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.
 
-💬 **Discord Community**: Join our [Discord server](https://discord.gg/gk8jAdXWmj) for real-time discussions:
+💬 **Discord**: [Join our community](https://discord.gg/gk8jAdXWmj) for real-time discussions, questions, and collaboration.
 
-- **#general-dev** - Technical discussions, feature ideas, and development questions
-- **#bugs-issues** - Bug reports and issue discussions
+---
 
 ## Our Philosophy
 
-### BMad Core™: Universal Foundation
+BMad strengthens human-AI collaboration through specialized agents and guided workflows. Every contribution should answer: **"Does this make humans and AI better together?"**
 
-BMad Core empowers humans and AI agents working together in true partnership across any domain through our **C.O.R.E. Framework** (Collaboration Optimized Reflection Engine):
-
-- **Collaboration**: Human-AI partnership where both contribute unique strengths
-- **Optimized**: The collaborative process refined for maximum effectiveness
-- **Reflection**: Guided thinking that helps discover better solutions and insights
-- **Engine**: The powerful framework that orchestrates specialized agents and workflows
-
-### BMad Method™: Agile AI-Driven Development
-
-The BMad Method is the flagship bmad module for agile AI-driven software development. It emphasizes thorough planning and solid architectural foundations to provide detailed context for developer agents, mirroring real-world agile best practices.
-
-### Core Principles
-
-**Partnership Over Automation** - AI agents act as expert coaches, mentors, and collaborators who amplify human capability rather than replace it.
-
-**Bidirectional Guidance** - Agents guide users through structured workflows while users push agents with advanced prompting. Both sides actively work to extract better information from each other.
-
-**Systems of Workflows** - BMad Core builds comprehensive systems of guided workflows with specialized agent teams for any domain.
-
-**Tool-Agnostic Foundation** - BMad Core remains tool-agnostic, providing stable, extensible groundwork that adapts to any domain.
-
-## What Makes a Good Contribution?
-
-Every contribution should strengthen human-AI collaboration. Ask yourself: **"Does this make humans and AI better together?"**
-
-**✅ Contributions that align:**
-
-- Enhance universal collaboration patterns
-- Improve agent personas and workflows
-- Strengthen planning and context continuity
-- Increase cross-domain accessibility
-- Add domain-specific modules leveraging BMad Core
-
-**❌ What detracts from our mission:**
+**✅ 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
-- Tools that don't improve the partnership
 - Complexity that creates barriers to adoption
 - Features that fragment BMad Core's foundation
 
-## Before You Contribute
+---
 
-### Reporting Bugs
+## Reporting Issues
 
-1. **Check existing issues** first to avoid duplicates
-2. **Consider discussing in Discord** (#bugs-issues channel) for quick help
-3. **Use the bug report template** when creating a new issue - it guides you through providing:
-   - Clear bug description
-   - Steps to reproduce
-   - Expected vs actual behavior
-   - Model/IDE/BMad version details
-   - Screenshots or links if applicable
-4. **Indicate if you're working on a fix** to avoid duplicate efforts
+**ALL bug reports and feature requests MUST go through GitHub Issues.**
 
-### Suggesting Features or New Modules
+### Before Creating an Issue
 
-1. **Discuss first in Discord** (#general-dev channel) - the feature request template asks if you've done this
-2. **Check existing issues and discussions** to avoid duplicates
-3. **Use the feature request template** when creating an issue
-4. **Be specific** about why this feature would benefit the BMad community and strengthen human-AI collaboration
+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)
 
-### Before Starting Work
+### 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:**
 
-1. **For bugs**: Check if an issue exists (create one using the bug template if not)
-2. **For features**: Discuss in Discord (#general-dev) AND create a feature request issue
-3. **For large changes**: Always open an issue first to discuss alignment
+| 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                     |
 
-Please propose small, granular changes! For large or significant changes, discuss in Discord and open an issue first. This prevents wasted effort on PRs that may not align with planned changes.
+**Why?** This prevents wasted effort on work that may not align with project direction.
+
+---
 
 ## Pull Request Guidelines
 
-### Which Branch?
+### Target Branch
 
-**Submit PR's to `main` branch** (critical only):
+Submit PRs to the `main` branch.
 
-- 🚨 Critical bug fixes that break basic functionality
-- 🔒 Security patches
-- 📚 Fixing dangerously incorrect documentation
-- 🐛 Bugs preventing installation or basic usage
+### PR Size
 
-### PR Size Guidelines
+- **Ideal**: 200-400 lines of code changes
+- **Maximum**: 800 lines (excluding generated files)
+- **One feature/fix per PR**
 
-- **Ideal PR size**: 200-400 lines of code changes
-- **Maximum PR size**: 800 lines (excluding generated files)
-- **One feature/fix per PR**: Each PR should address a single issue or add one feature
-- **If your change is larger**: Break it into multiple smaller PRs that can be reviewed independently
-- **Related changes**: Even related changes should be separate PRs if they deliver independent value
+If your change exceeds 800 lines, break it into smaller PRs that can be reviewed independently.
 
-### Breaking Down Large PRs
+### New to Pull Requests?
 
-If your change exceeds 800 lines, use this checklist to split it:
-
-- [ ] Can I separate the refactoring from the feature implementation?
-- [ ] Can I introduce the new API/interface in one PR and implementation in another?
-- [ ] Can I split by file or module?
-- [ ] Can I create a base PR with shared utilities first?
-- [ ] Can I separate test additions from implementation?
-- [ ] Even if changes are related, can they deliver value independently?
-- [ ] Can these changes be merged in any order without breaking things?
-
-Example breakdown:
-
-1. PR #1: Add utility functions and types (100 lines)
-2. PR #2: Refactor existing code to use utilities (200 lines)
-3. PR #3: Implement new feature using refactored code (300 lines)
-4. PR #4: Add comprehensive tests (200 lines)
-
-**Note**: PRs #1 and #4 could be submitted simultaneously since they deliver independent value.
-
-### Pull Request Process
-
-#### New to Pull Requests?
-
-If you're new to GitHub or pull requests, here's a quick guide:
-
-1. **Fork the repository** - Click the "Fork" button on GitHub to create your own copy
-2. **Clone your fork** - `git clone https://github.com/YOUR-USERNAME/bmad-method.git`
-3. **Create a new branch** - Never work on `main` directly!
-   ```bash
-   git checkout -b fix/description
-   # or
-   git checkout -b feature/description
-   ```
-4. **Make your changes** - Edit files, keeping changes small and focused
-5. **Commit your changes** - Use clear, descriptive commit messages
-   ```bash
-   git add .
-   git commit -m "fix: correct typo in README"
-   ```
-6. **Push to your fork** - `git push origin fix/description`
-7. **Create the Pull Request** - Go to your fork on GitHub and click "Compare & pull request"
+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
 
-Keep your PR description concise and focused. Use this template:
-
 ```markdown
 ## What
-
 [1-2 sentences describing WHAT changed]
 
 ## Why
-
 [1-2 sentences explaining WHY this change is needed]
-Fixes #[issue number] (if applicable)
+Fixes #[issue number]
 
 ## How
-
-## [2-3 bullets listing HOW you implemented it]
-
--
+- [2-3 bullets listing HOW you implemented it]
 -
 
 ## Testing
-
 [1-2 sentences on how you tested this]
 ```
 
-**Maximum PR description length: 200 words** (excluding code examples if needed)
+**Keep it under 200 words.**
 
-### Good vs Bad PR Descriptions
+### Commit Messages
 
-❌ **Bad Example:**
-
-> This revolutionary PR introduces a paradigm-shifting enhancement to the system's architecture by implementing a state-of-the-art solution that leverages cutting-edge methodologies to optimize performance metrics...
-
-✅ **Good Example:**
-
-> **What:** Added validation for agent dependency resolution
-> **Why:** Build was failing silently when agents had circular dependencies
-> **How:**
->
-> - Added cycle detection in dependency-resolver.js
-> - Throws clear error with dependency chain
->   **Testing:** Tested with circular deps between 3 agents
-
-### Commit Message Convention
-
-Use conventional commits format:
+Use conventional commits:
 
 - `feat:` New feature
 - `fix:` Bug fix
 - `docs:` Documentation only
-- `refactor:` Code change that neither fixes a bug nor adds a feature
-- `test:` Adding missing tests
-- `chore:` Changes to build process or auxiliary tools
+- `refactor:` Code change (no bug/feature)
+- `test:` Adding tests
+- `chore:` Build/tools changes
 
-Keep commit messages under 72 characters.
-
-### Atomic Commits
-
-Each commit should represent one logical change:
-
-- **Do:** One bug fix per commit
-- **Do:** One feature addition per commit
-- **Don't:** Mix refactoring with bug fixes
-- **Don't:** Combine unrelated changes
-
-## What Makes a Good Pull Request?
-
-✅ **Good PRs:**
-
-- Change one thing at a time
-- Have clear, descriptive titles
-- Explain what and why in the description
-- Include only the files that need to change
-- Reference related issue numbers
-
-❌ **Avoid:**
-
-- Changing formatting of entire files
-- Multiple unrelated changes in one PR
-- Copying your entire project/repo into the PR
-- Changes without explanation
-- Working directly on `main` branch
-
-## Common Mistakes to Avoid
-
-1. **Don't reformat entire files** - only change what's necessary
-2. **Don't include unrelated changes** - stick to one fix/feature per PR
-3. **Don't paste code in issues** - create a proper PR instead
-4. **Don't submit your whole project** - contribute specific improvements
-
-## Code Style
-
-- Follow the existing code style and conventions
-- Write clear comments for complex logic
-- Keep dev agents lean - they need context for coding, not documentation
-- Web/planning agents can be larger with more complex tasks
-- Everything is natural language (markdown) - no code in core framework
-- Use bmad modules for domain-specific features
-- Validate YAML schemas with `npm run validate:schemas` before committing

-## AI-Driven Agile Development That Scales From Bug Fixes to Enterprise
+**Breakthrough Method of Agile AI Driven Development** — An AI-driven agile development framework with 21 specialized agents, 50+ guided workflows, and scale-adaptive intelligence that adjusts from bug fixes to enterprise systems.
 
-**Build More, Architect Dreams** (BMAD) with **19 specialized AI agents** and **50+ guided workflows** that adapt to your project's complexity—from quick bug fixes to enterprise platforms.
+**100% free and open source.** No paywalls. No gated content. No gated Discord. We believe in empowering everyone, not just those who can pay.
 
-> **🚀 v6 is a MASSIVE upgrade from v4!** Complete architectural overhaul, scale-adaptive intelligence, visual workflows, and the powerful BMad Core framework. v4 users: this changes everything. [See what's new →](#whats-new-in-v6)
+## Why BMad?
 
-> **📌 v6 Alpha Status:** Near-beta quality with vastly improved stability. Documentation is being finalized. New videos coming soon to [BMadCode YouTube](https://www.youtube.com/@BMadCode).
+Traditional AI tools do the thinking for you, producing average results. BMad agents and facilitated workflow act as expert collaborators who guide you through a structured process to bring out your best thinking in partnership with the AI.
 
-## 🎯 Why BMad Method?
+- **AI Intelligent Help**: Brand new for beta - AI assisted help will guide you from the beginning to the end - just ask for `/bmad-help` after you have installed BMad to your project
+- **Scale-Domain-Adaptive**: Automatically adjusts planning depth and needs based on project complexity, domain and type - a SaaS Mobile Dating App has different planning needs from a diagnostic medical system, BMad adapts and helps you along the way
+- **Structured Workflows**: Grounded in agile best practices across analysis, planning, architecture, and implementation
+- **Specialized Agents**: 12+ domain experts (PM, Architect, Developer, UX, Scrum Master, and more)
+- **Party Mode**: Bring multiple agent personas into one session to plan, troubleshoot, or discuss your project collaboratively, multiple perspectives with maximum fun
+- **Complete Lifecycle**: From brainstorming to deployment, BMad is there with you every step of the way
 
-Unlike generic AI coding assistants, BMad Method provides **structured, battle-tested workflows** powered by specialized agents who understand agile development. Each agent has deep domain expertise—from product management to architecture to testing—working together seamlessly.
+## Quick Start
 
-**✨ Key Benefits:**
-
-- **Scale-Adaptive Intelligence** - Automatically adjusts planning depth from bug fixes to enterprise systems
-- **Complete Development Lifecycle** - Analysis → Planning → Architecture → Implementation
-- **Specialized Expertise** - 19 agents with specific roles (PM, Architect, Developer, UX Designer, etc.)
-- **Proven Methodologies** - Built on agile best practices with AI amplification
-- **IDE Integration** - Works with Claude Code, Cursor, Windsurf, VS Code
-
-## 🏗️ The Power of BMad Core
-
-**BMad Method** is actually a sophisticated module built on top of **BMad Core** (**C**ollaboration **O**ptimized **R**eflection **E**ngine). This revolutionary architecture means:
-
-- **BMad Core** provides the universal framework for human-AI collaboration
-- **BMad Method** leverages Core to deliver agile development workflows
-- **BMad Builder** lets YOU create custom modules as powerful as BMad Method itself
-
-With **BMad Builder**, you can architect both simple agents and vastly complex domain-specific modules (legal, medical, finance, education, creative) that will soon be sharable in an **official community marketplace**. Imagine building and sharing your own specialized AI team!

-  <em>Complete BMad Method workflow showing all phases, agents, and decision points</em>
-</p>
-
-## 🚀 Get Started in 3 Steps
-
-### 1. Install BMad Method
+**Prerequisites**: [Node.js](https://nodejs.org) v20+
 
 ```bash
-# Install v6 Alpha (recommended)
-npx bmad-method@alpha install
-
-# Or stable v4 for production
 npx bmad-method install
 ```
 
-### 2. Initialize Your Project
+Follow the installer prompts, then open your AI IDE (Claude Code, Cursor, Windsurf, etc.) in the project folder.
 
-Load any agent in your IDE and run:
+> **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:
 
-```
-*workflow-init
-```
+ - `/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`
 
-This analyzes your project and recommends the right workflow track.
+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!
 
-### 3. Choose Your Track
+The workflows below show the fastest path to working code. You can also load agents directly for a more structured process, extensive planning, or to learn about agile development practices — the agents guide you with menus, explanations, and elicitation at each step.
 
-BMad Method adapts to your needs with three intelligent tracks:
+### Simple Path (Quick Flow)
 
-| Track              | Use For                   | Planning                | Time to Start |
-| ------------------ | ------------------------- | ----------------------- | ------------- |
-| **⚡ Quick Flow**  | Bug fixes, small features | Tech spec only          | < 5 minutes   |
-| **📋 BMad Method** | Products, platforms       | PRD + Architecture + UX | < 15 minutes  |
-| **🏢 Enterprise**  | Compliance, scale         | Full governance suite   | < 30 minutes  |
+Bug fixes, small features, clear scope — 3 commands - 1 Optional Agent:
 
-> **Not sure?** Run `*workflow-init` and let BMad analyze your project goal.
+1. `/quick-spec` — analyzes your codebase and produces a tech-spec with stories
+2. `/dev-story` — implements each story
+3. `/code-review` — validates quality
 
-## 🔄 How It Works: 4-Phase Methodology
+### Full Planning Path (BMad Method)
 
-BMad Method guides you through a proven development lifecycle:
+Products, platforms, complex features — structured planning then build:
 
-1. **📊 Analysis** (Optional) - Brainstorm, research, and explore solutions
-2. **📝 Planning** - Create PRDs, tech specs, or game design documents
-3. **🏗️ Solutioning** - Design architecture, UX, and technical approach
-4. **⚡ Implementation** - Story-driven development with continuous validation
+1. `/product-brief` — define problem, users, and MVP scope
+2. `/create-prd` — full requirements with personas, metrics, and risks
+3. `/create-architecture` — technical decisions and system design
+4. `/create-epics-and-stories` — break work into prioritized stories
+5. `/sprint-planning` — initialize sprint tracking
+6. **Repeat per story:** `/create-story` → `/dev-story` → `/code-review`
 
-Each phase has specialized workflows and agents working together to deliver exceptional results.
+Every step tells you what's next. Optional phases (brainstorming, research, UX design) are available when you need them — ask `/bmad-help` anytime. For a detailed walkthrough, see the [Getting Started Tutorial](http://docs.bmad-method.org/tutorials/getting-started/).
 
-## 🤖 Meet Your Team
+## Modules

+
+## Security Best Practices for Users
+
+When using BMad Method:
+
+1. **Review Agent Outputs**: Always review AI-generated code before executing it
+2. **Limit File Access**: Configure your AI IDE to limit file system access where possible
+3. **Keep Updated**: Regularly update to the latest version
+4. **Validate Dependencies**: Review any dependencies added by generated code
+5. **Environment Isolation**: Consider running AI-assisted development in isolated environments

-# Agent Customization Guide
-
-Customize BMad agents without modifying core files. All customizations persist through updates.
-
-## Quick Start
-
-**1. Locate Customization Files**
-
-After installation, find agent customization files in:
-
-```
-{bmad_folder}/_cfg/agents/
-├── core-bmad-master.customize.yaml
-├── bmm-dev.customize.yaml
-├── bmm-pm.customize.yaml
-└── ... (one file per installed agent)
-```
-
-**2. Edit Any Agent**
-
-Open the `.customize.yaml` file for the agent you want to modify. All sections are optional - customize only what you need.
-
-**3. Rebuild the Agent**
-
-After editing, IT IS CRITICAL to rebuild the agent to apply changes:
-
-```bash
-npx bmad-method@alpha install # and then select option to compile all agents
-# OR for individual agent only
-npx bmad-method@alpha build <agent-name>
-
-# Examples:
-npx bmad-method@alpha build bmm-dev
-npx bmad-method@alpha build core-bmad-master
-npx bmad-method@alpha build bmm-pm
-```
-
-## What You Can Customize
-
-### Agent Name
-
-Change how the agent introduces itself:
-
-```yaml
-agent:
-  metadata:
-    name: 'Spongebob' # Default: "Amelia"
-```
-
-### Persona
-
-Replace the agent's personality, role, and communication style:
-
-```yaml
-persona:
-  role: 'Senior Full-Stack Engineer'
-  identity: 'Lives in a pineapple (under the sea)'
-  communication_style: 'Spongebob'
-  principles:
-    - 'Never Nester, Spongebob Devs hate nesting more than 2 levels deep'
-    - 'Favor composition over inheritance'
-```
-
-**Note:** The persona section replaces the entire default persona (not merged).
-
-### Memories
-
-Add persistent context the agent will always remember:
-
-```yaml
-memories:
-  - 'Works at Krusty Krab'
-  - 'Favorite Celebrity: David Hasslehoff'
-  - 'Learned in Epic 1 that its not cool to just pretend that tests have passed'
-```
-
-### Custom Menu Items
-
-Add your own workflows to the agent's menu:
-
-```yaml
-menu:
-  - trigger: my-workflow
-    workflow: '{project-root}/custom/my-workflow.yaml'
-    description: My custom workflow
-  - trigger: deploy
-    action: '#deploy-prompt'
-    description: Deploy to production
-```
-
-**Don't include:** `*` prefix or `help`/`exit` items - these are auto-injected.
-
-### Critical Actions
-
-Add instructions that execute before the agent starts:
-
-```yaml
-critical_actions:
-  - 'Always check git status before making changes'
-  - 'Use conventional commit messages'
-```
-
-### Custom Prompts
-
-Define reusable prompts for `action="#id"` menu handlers:
-
-```yaml
-prompts:
-  - id: deploy-prompt
-    content: |
-      Deploy the current branch to production:
-      1. Run all tests
-      2. Build the project
-      3. Execute deployment script
-```
-
-## Real-World Examples
-
-**Example 1: Customize Developer Agent for TDD**
-
-```yaml
-# {bmad_folder}/_cfg/agents/bmm-dev.customize.yaml
-agent:
-  metadata:
-    name: 'TDD Developer'
-
-memories:
-  - 'Always write tests before implementation'
-  - 'Project uses Jest and React Testing Library'
-
-critical_actions:
-  - 'Review test coverage before committing'
-```
-
-**Example 2: Add Custom Deployment Workflow**
-
-```yaml
-# {bmad_folder}/_cfg/agents/bmm-dev.customize.yaml
-menu:
-  - trigger: deploy-staging
-    workflow: '{project-root}/{bmad_folder}/deploy-staging.yaml'
-    description: Deploy to staging environment
-  - trigger: deploy-prod
-    workflow: '{project-root}/{bmad_folder}/deploy-prod.yaml'
-    description: Deploy to production (with approval)
-```
-
-**Example 3: Multilingual Product Manager**
-
-```yaml
-# {bmad_folder}/_cfg/agents/bmm-pm.customize.yaml
-persona:
-  role: 'Bilingual Product Manager'
-  identity: 'Expert in US and LATAM markets'
-  communication_style: 'Clear, strategic, with cultural awareness'
-  principles:
-    - 'Consider localization from day one'
-    - 'Balance business goals with user needs'
-
-memories:
-  - 'User speaks English and Spanish'
-  - 'Target markets: US and Latin America'
-```
-
-## Tips
-
-- **Start Small:** Customize one section at a time and rebuild to test
-- **Backup:** Copy customization files before major changes
-- **Update-Safe:** Your customizations in `_cfg/` survive all BMad updates
-- **Per-Project:** Customization files are per-project, not global
-- **Version Control:** Consider committing `_cfg/` to share customizations with your team
-
-## Module vs. Global Config
-
-**Module-Level (Recommended):**
-
-- Customize agents per-project in `{bmad_folder}/_cfg/agents/`
-- Different projects can have different agent behaviors
-
-**Global Config (Coming Soon):**
-
-- Set defaults that apply across all projects
-- Override with project-specific customizations
-
-## Troubleshooting
-
-**Changes not appearing?**
-
-- Make sure you ran `npx bmad-method build <agent-name>` after editing
-- Check YAML syntax is valid (indentation matters!)
-- Verify the agent name matches the file name pattern
-
-**Agent not loading?**
-
-- Check for YAML syntax errors
-- Ensure required fields aren't left empty if you uncommented them
-- Try reverting to the template and rebuilding
-
-**Need to reset?**
-
-- Delete the `.customize.yaml` file
-- Run `npx bmad-method build <agent-name>` to regenerate defaults

-# Custom Agent Installation
-
-BMAD agents and workflows are now installed through the main CLI installer using a `custom.yaml` configuration file or by having an installer file.
-
-## Quick Start
-
-Create a `custom.yaml` file in the root of your agent/workflow folder:
-
-```yaml
-code: my-custom-agent
-name: 'My Custom Agent'
-default_selected: true
-```
-
-Then run the BMAD installer from your project directory:
-
-```bash
-npx bmad-method install
-```
-
-Or if you have bmad-cli installed globally:
-
-```bash
-bmad install
-```
-
-## Installation Methods
-
-### Method 1: Stand-alone Folder with custom.yaml
-
-Place your agent or workflow in a folder with a `custom.yaml` file at the root:
-
-```
-my-agent/
-├── custom.yaml      # Required configuration file
-├── my-agent.agent.yaml
-└── sidecar/         # Optional
-    └── instructions.md
-```
-
-### Method 2: Installer File
-
-For more complex installations, include an `installer.js` or `installer.yaml` file in your agent/workflow folder:
-
-```
-my-workflow/
-├── workflow.md
-└── installer.yaml   # Custom installation logic
-```
-
-## What It Does
-
-1. **Discovers** available agents and workflows from folders with `custom.yaml`
-2. **Installs** to your project's `.bmad/custom/` directory
-3. **Creates** IDE commands for all your configured IDEs (Claude Code, Codex, Cursor, etc.)
-4. **Registers** the agent/workflow in the BMAD system
-
-## Example custom.yaml
-
-```yaml
-code: my-custom-agent
-name: 'My Custom Agent'
-default_selected: true
-```
-
-## Installing Reference Agents
-
-The BMAD source includes example agents you can install. **You must copy them to your project first.**
-
-### Step 1: Copy the Agent Template
-
-**For simple agents** (single file):
-
-```bash
-# From your project root
-mkdir -p .bmad/custom/agents/my-agent
-cp node_modules/bmad-method/src/modules/bmb/reference/agents/stand-alone/commit-poet.agent.yaml \
-   .bmad/custom/agents/my-agent/
-```
-
-**For expert agents** (folder with sidecar files):
-
-```bash
-# Copy the entire folder
-cp -r node_modules/bmad-method/src/modules/bmb/reference/agents/agent-with-memory/journal-keeper \
-   .bmad/custom/agents/
-```
-
-### Step 2: Create custom.yaml
-
-```bash
-# In the agent folder, create custom.yaml
-cat > .bmad/custom/agents/my-agent/custom.yaml << EOF
-code: my-agent
-name: "My Custom Agent"
-default_selected: true
-EOF
-```
-
-### Step 3: Install
-
-```bash
-npx bmad-method install
-# or: bmad install (if BMAD installed locally)
-```
-
-The installer will:
-
-1. Find the agent with its `custom.yaml`
-2. Install it to the appropriate location
-3. Create IDE commands for immediate use
-
-### Available Reference Agents
-
-**Simple (standalone file):**
-
-- `commit-poet.agent.yaml` - Commit message artisan with style preferences
-
-**Expert (folder with sidecar):**
-
-- `journal-keeper/` - Personal journal companion with memory and pattern recognition
-
-Find these in the BMAD source:
-
-```
-src/modules/bmb/reference/agents/
-├── stand-alone/
-│   └── commit-poet.agent.yaml
-└── agent-with-memory/
-    └── journal-keeper/
-        ├── journal-keeper.agent.yaml
-        └── journal-keeper-sidecar/
-```
-
-## Creating Your Own
-
-Use the BMB agent builder to craft your agents. Once ready to use, place your `.agent.yaml` files or folders with `custom.yaml` in `.bmad/custom/agents/` or `.bmad/custom/workflows/`.

-## What is Document Sharding?
-
-Document sharding splits large markdown files into smaller, organized files based on level 2 headings (`## Heading`). This enables:
-
-- **Selective Loading** - Workflows load only the sections they need
-- **Reduced Token Usage** - Massive efficiency gains for large projects
-- **Better Organization** - Logical section-based file structure
-- **Maintained Context** - Index file preserves document structure
-
-### Architecture
-
-```
-Before Sharding:
-docs/
-└── PRD.md (large 50k token file)
-
-After Sharding:
-docs/
-└── prd/
-    ├── index.md                    # Table of contents with descriptions
-    ├── overview.md                 # Section 1
-    ├── user-requirements.md        # Section 2
-    ├── technical-requirements.md   # Section 3
-    └── ...                         # Additional sections
-```
-
-## When to Use Sharding
-
-### Ideal Candidates
-
-**Large Multi-Epic Projects:**
-
-- Very large complex PRDs
-- Architecture documents with multiple system layers
-- Epic files with 4+ epics (especially for Phase 4)
-- UX design specs covering multiple subsystems
-
-**Token Thresholds:**
-
-- **Consider sharding**: Documents > 20k tokens
-- **Strongly recommended**: Documents > 40k tokens
-- **Critical for efficiency**: Documents > 60k tokens
-
-### When NOT to Shard
-
-**Small Projects:**
-
-- Single epic projects
-- Level 0-1 projects (tech-spec only)
-- Documents under 10k tokens
-- Quick prototypes
-
-**Frequently Updated Docs:**
-
-- Active work-in-progress documents
-- Documents updated daily
-- Documents where whole-file context is essential
-
-## How Sharding Works
-
-### Sharding Process
-
-1. **Tool Execution**: Run `npx @kayvan/markdown-tree-parser source.md destination/` - this is abstracted with the core shard-doc task which is installed as a slash command or manual task rule depending on your tools.
-2. **Section Extraction**: Tool splits by level 2 headings
-3. **File Creation**: Each section becomes a separate file
-4. **Index Generation**: `index.md` created with structure and descriptions
-
-### Workflow Discovery
-
-BMad workflows use a **dual discovery system**:
-
-1. **Try whole document first** - Look for `document-name.md`
-2. **Check for sharded version** - Look for `document-name/index.md`
-3. **Priority rule** - Whole document takes precedence if both exist
-
-### Loading Strategies
-
-**Full Load (Phase 1-3 workflows):**
-
-```
-If sharded:
-  - Read index.md
-  - Read ALL section files
-  - Treat as single combined document
-```
-
-**Selective Load (Phase 4 workflows):**
-
-```
-If sharded epics and working on Epic 3:
-  - Read epics/index.md
-  - Load ONLY epics/epic-3.md
-  - Skip all other epic files
-  - 90%+ token savings!
-```
-
-## Using the Shard-Doc Tool
-
-### CLI Command
-
-```bash
-# Activate bmad-master or analyst agent, then:
-/shard-doc
-```
-
-### Interactive Process
-
-```
-Agent: Which document would you like to shard?
-User: docs/PRD.md
-
-Agent: Default destination: docs/prd/
-       Accept default? [y/n]
-User: y
-
-Agent: Sharding PRD.md...
-       ✓ Created 12 section files
-       ✓ Generated index.md
-       ✓ Complete!
-```
-
-### What Gets Created
-
-**index.md structure:**
-
-```markdown
-# PRD - Index
-
-## Sections
-
-1. [Overview](./overview.md) - Project vision and objectives
-2. [User Requirements](./user-requirements.md) - Feature specifications
-3. [Epic 1: Authentication](./epic-1-authentication.md) - User auth system
-4. [Epic 2: Dashboard](./epic-2-dashboard.md) - Main dashboard UI
-   ...
-```
-
-**Individual section files:**
-
-- Named from heading text (kebab-case)
-- Contains complete section content
-- Preserves all markdown formatting
-- Can be read independently
-
-## Workflow Support
-
-### Universal Support
-
-**All BMM workflows support both formats:**
-
-- ✅ Whole documents
-- ✅ Sharded documents
-- ✅ Automatic detection
-- ✅ Transparent to user
-
-### Workflow-Specific Patterns
-
-#### Phase 1-3 (Full Load)
-
-Workflows load entire sharded documents:
-
-- `product-brief` - Research, brainstorming docs
-- `prd` - Product brief, research
-- `gdd` - Game brief, research
-- `create-ux-design` - PRD, brief, architecture (if available)
-- `tech-spec` - Brief, research
-- `architecture` - PRD, UX design (if available)
-- `create-epics-and-stories` - PRD, architecture
-- `implementation-readiness` - All planning docs
-
-#### Phase 4 (Selective Load)
-
-Workflows load only needed sections:
-
-**sprint-planning** (Full Load):
-
-- Needs ALL epics to build complete status
-
-**create-story, code-review** (Selective):
-
-```
-Working on Epic 3, Story 2:
-  ✓ Load epics/epic-3.md only
-  ✗ Skip epics/epic-1.md, epic-2.md, epic-4.md, etc.
-
-Result: 90%+ token reduction for 10-epic projects!
-```
-
-### Input File Patterns
-
-Workflows use standardized patterns:
-
-```yaml
-input_file_patterns:
-  prd:
-    whole: '{output_folder}/*prd*.md'
-    sharded: '{output_folder}/*prd*/index.md'
-
-  epics:
-    whole: '{output_folder}/*epic*.md'
-    sharded_index: '{output_folder}/*epic*/index.md'
-    sharded_single: '{output_folder}/*epic*/epic-{{epic_num}}.md'
-```
-
-## Best Practices
-
-### Sharding Strategy
-
-**Do:**
-
-- ✅ Shard after planning phase complete
-- ✅ Keep level 2 headings well-organized
-- ✅ Use descriptive section names
-- ✅ Shard before Phase 4 implementation
-- ✅ Keep original file as backup initially
-
-**Don't:**
-
-- ❌ Shard work-in-progress documents
-- ❌ Shard small documents (<20k tokens)
-- ❌ Mix sharded and whole versions
-- ❌ Manually edit index.md structure
-
-### Naming Conventions
-
-**Good Section Names:**
-
-```markdown
-## Epic 1: User Authentication
-
-## Technical Requirements
-
-## System Architecture
-
-## UX Design Principles
-```
-
-**Poor Section Names:**
-
-```markdown
-## Section 1
-
-## Part A
-
-## Details
-
-## More Info
-```
-
-### File Management
-
-**When to Re-shard:**
-
-- Significant structural changes to document
-- Adding/removing major sections
-- After major refactoring
-
-**Updating Sharded Docs:**
-
-1. Edit individual section files directly
-2. OR edit original, delete sharded folder, re-shard
-3. Don't manually edit index.md
-
-## Examples
-
-### Example 1: Large PRD
-
-**Scenario:** 15-epic project, PRD is 45k tokens
-
-**Before Sharding:**
-
-```
-Every workflow loads entire 45k token PRD
-Architecture workflow: 45k tokens
-UX design workflow: 45k tokens
-```
-
-**After Sharding:**
-
-```bash
-/shard-doc
-Source: docs/PRD.md
-Destination: docs/prd/
-
-Created:
-  prd/index.md
-  prd/overview.md (3k tokens)
-  prd/functional-requirements.md (8k tokens)
-  prd/non-functional-requirements.md (6k tokens)
-  prd/user-personas.md (4k tokens)
-  ...additional FR/NFR sections
-```
-
-**Result:**
-
-```
-Architecture workflow: Can load specific sections needed
-UX design workflow: Can load specific sections needed
-Significant token reduction for large requirement docs!
-```
-
-### Example 2: Sharding Epics File
-
-**Scenario:** 8 epics with detailed stories, 35k tokens total
-
-```bash
-/shard-doc
-Source: docs/bmm-epics.md
-Destination: docs/epics/
-
-Created:
-  epics/index.md
-  epics/epic-1.md
-  epics/epic-2.md
-  ...
-  epics/epic-8.md
-```
-
-**Efficiency Gain:**
-
-```
-Working on Epic 5 stories:
-  Old: Load all 8 epics (35k tokens)
-  New: Load epic-5.md only (4k tokens)
-  Savings: 88% reduction
-```
-
-### Example 3: Architecture Document
-
-**Scenario:** Multi-layer system architecture, 28k tokens
-
-```bash
-/shard-doc
-Source: docs/architecture.md
-Destination: docs/architecture/
-
-Created:
-  architecture/index.md
-  architecture/system-overview.md
-  architecture/frontend-architecture.md
-  architecture/backend-services.md
-  architecture/data-layer.md
-  architecture/infrastructure.md
-  architecture/security-architecture.md
-```
-
-**Benefit:** Code-review workflow can reference specific architectural layers without loading entire architecture doc.
-
-## Custom Workflow Integration
-
-### For Workflow Builders
-
-When creating custom workflows that load large documents:
-
-**1. Add input_file_patterns to workflow.yaml:**
-
-```yaml
-input_file_patterns:
-  your_document:
-    whole: '{output_folder}/*your-doc*.md'
-    sharded: '{output_folder}/*your-doc*/index.md'
-```
-
-**2. Add discovery instructions to instructions.md:**
-
-```markdown
-## Document Discovery
-
-1. Search for whole document: _your-doc_.md
-2. Check for sharded version: _your-doc_/index.md
-3. If sharded: Read index + ALL sections (or specific sections if selective load)
-4. Priority: Whole document first
-```
-
-**3. Choose loading strategy:**
-
-- **Full Load**: Read all sections when sharded
-- **Selective Load**: Read only relevant sections (requires section identification logic)
-
-### Pattern Templates
-
-**Full Load Pattern:**
-
-```xml
-<action>Search for document: {output_folder}/*doc-name*.md</action>
-<action>If not found, check for sharded: {output_folder}/*doc-name*/index.md</action>
-<action if="sharded found">Read index.md to understand structure</action>
-<action if="sharded found">Read ALL section files listed in index</action>
-<action if="sharded found">Combine content as single document</action>
-```
-
-**Selective Load Pattern (with section ID):**
-
-```xml
-<action>Determine section needed (e.g., epic_num = 3)</action>
-<action>Check for sharded version: {output_folder}/*doc-name*/index.md</action>
-<action if="sharded found">Read ONLY the specific section file needed</action>
-<action if="sharded found">Skip all other section files</action>
-```
-
-## Troubleshooting
-
-### Common Issues
-
-**Both whole and sharded exist:**
-
-- Workflows will use whole document (priority rule)
-- Delete or archive the one you don't want
-
-**Index.md out of sync:**
-
-- Delete sharded folder
-- Re-run shard-doc on original
-
-**Workflow can't find document:**
-
-- Check file naming matches patterns (`*prd*.md`, `*epic*.md`, etc.)
-- Verify index.md exists in sharded folder
-- Check output_folder path in config
-
-**Sections too granular:**
-
-- Combine sections in original document
-- Use fewer level 2 headings
-- Re-shard

+title: "Advanced Elicitation"
+description: Push the LLM to rethink its work using structured reasoning methods
+---
+
+Make the LLM reconsider what it just generated. You pick a reasoning method, it applies that method to its own output, you decide whether to keep the improvements.
+
+Dozens of methods are built in - things like First Principles, Red Team vs Blue Team, Pre-mortem Analysis, Socratic Questioning, and more.
+
+## When to Use It
+
+- After a workflow generates content and you want alternatives
+- When output seems okay but you suspect there's more depth
+- To stress-test assumptions or find weaknesses
+- For high-stakes content where rethinking helps
+
+Workflows offer advanced elicitation at decision points - after the LLM has generated something, you'll be asked if you want to run it.
+
+## How It Works
+
+1. LLM suggests 5 relevant methods for your content
+2. You pick one (or reshuffle for different options)
+3. Method is applied, improvements shown
+4. Accept or discard, repeat or continue

+title: "Adversarial Review"
+description: Forced reasoning technique that prevents lazy "looks good" reviews
+---
+
+Force deeper analysis by requiring problems to be found.
+
+## What is Adversarial Review?
+
+A review technique where the reviewer *must* find issues. No "looks good" allowed. The reviewer adopts a cynical stance - assume problems exist and find them.
+
+This isn't about being negative. It's about forcing genuine analysis instead of a cursory glance that rubber-stamps whatever was submitted.
+
+**The core rule:** You must find issues. Zero findings triggers a halt - re-analyze or explain why.
+
+## Why It Works
+
+Normal reviews suffer from confirmation bias. You skim the work, nothing jumps out, you approve it. The "find problems" mandate breaks this pattern:
+
+- **Forces thoroughness** - Can't approve until you've looked hard enough to find issues
+- **Catches missing things** - "What's not here?" becomes a natural question
+- **Improves signal quality** - Findings are specific and actionable, not vague concerns
+- **Information asymmetry** - Run reviews with fresh context (no access to original reasoning) so you evaluate the artifact, not the intent
+
+## Where It's Used
+
+Adversarial review appears throughout BMAD workflows - code review, implementation readiness checks, spec validation, and others. Sometimes it's a required step, sometimes optional (like advanced elicitation or party mode). The pattern adapts to whatever artifact needs scrutiny.
+
+## Human Filtering Required
+
+Because the AI is *instructed* to find problems, it will find problems - even when they don't exist. Expect false positives: nitpicks dressed as issues, misunderstandings of intent, or outright hallucinated concerns.
+
+**You decide what's real.** Review each finding, dismiss the noise, fix what matters.
+
+## Example
+
+Instead of:
+
+> "The authentication implementation looks reasonable. Approved."
+
+An adversarial review produces:
+
+> 1. **HIGH** - `login.ts:47` - No rate limiting on failed attempts
+> 2. **HIGH** - Session token stored in localStorage (XSS vulnerable)
+> 3. **MEDIUM** - Password validation happens client-side only
+> 4. **MEDIUM** - No audit logging for failed login attempts
+> 5. **LOW** - Magic number `3600` should be `SESSION_TIMEOUT_SECONDS`
+
+The first review might miss a security vulnerability. The second caught four.
+
+## Iteration and Diminishing Returns
+
+After addressing findings, consider running it again. A second pass usually catches more. A third isn't always useless either. But each pass takes time, and eventually you hit diminishing returns - just nitpicks and false findings.

+
+Run `brainstorming` and you've got a creative facilitator pulling ideas out of you - not generating them for you. The AI acts as coach and guide, using proven techniques to create conditions where your best thinking emerges.

+- Developing raw concepts into action plans
+
+## How It Works
+
+1. **Setup** - Define topic, goals, constraints
+2. **Choose approach** - Pick techniques yourself, get AI recommendations, go random, or follow a progressive flow
+3. **Facilitation** - Work through techniques with probing questions and collaborative coaching
+4. **Organize** - Ideas grouped into themes and prioritized
+5. **Action** - Top ideas get next steps and success metrics
+
+Everything gets captured in a session document you can reference later or share with stakeholders.

+
+### What is brownfield vs greenfield?
+
+- **Greenfield** — New project, starting from scratch, clean slate
+- **Brownfield** — Existing project, working with established codebase and patterns
+
+### Do I have to run document-project for brownfield?
+
+Highly recommended, especially if:
+
+- No existing documentation
+- Documentation is outdated
+- AI agents need context about existing code
+
+You can skip it if you have comprehensive, up-to-date documentation including `docs/index.md` or will use other tools or techniques to aid in discovery for the agent to build on an existing system.
+
+### What if I forget to run document-project?
+
+Don't worry about it - you can do it at any time. You can even do it during or after a project to help keep docs up to date.
+
+### Can I use Quick Spec Flow for brownfield projects?
+
+Yes! Quick Spec Flow works great for brownfield. It will:
+
+- Auto-detect your existing stack
+- Analyze brownfield code patterns
+- Detect conventions and ask for confirmation
+- Generate context-rich tech-spec that respects existing code
+
+Perfect for bug fixes and small features in existing codebases.
+
+### What if my existing code doesn't follow best practices?
+
+Quick Spec Flow detects your conventions and asks: "Should I follow these existing conventions?" You decide:
+
+- **Yes** → Maintain consistency with current codebase
+- **No** → Establish new standards (document why in tech-spec)
+
+BMM respects your choice — it won't force modernization, but it will offer it.

+Get all your AI agents in one conversation.
+
+## What is Party Mode?
+
+Run `party-mode` and you've got your whole AI team in one room - PM, Architect, Dev, UX Designer, whoever you need. BMad Master orchestrates, picking relevant agents per message. Agents respond in character, agree, disagree, and build on each other's ideas.
+
+The conversation continues as long as you want. Ask follow-ups, push back on answers, redirect the discussion - it's a real back-and-forth with your agents until you're done.
+
+**Good for:**
+
+- Big decisions with tradeoffs
+- Brainstorming sessions
+- Post-mortems when things go wrong
+- Sprint retrospectives and planning
+
+## Examples
+
+### Calling Out Bad Architecture
+
+**You:** "Okay team, our last sprint was a disaster. The authentication service went down three times. Who screwed this up?"
+
+**Architect:** "The design was sound - distributed authentication with proper fallbacks. If implementation deviated from the spec..."
+
+**Dev:** "I followed the architecture doc exactly. The spec didn't account for concurrent session invalidation race conditions."
+
+**PM:** "Both of you missed the bigger issue - we didn't validate session management requirements in the PRD. This is on me for not catching it."
+
+**TEA:** "And I should've caught this in integration tests. The test scenarios didn't cover concurrent invalidation."
+
+### Creative Brainstorming
+
+**You:** "How do we make onboarding feel magical instead of boring?"
+

+title: "Preventing Agent Conflicts"
+description: How architecture prevents conflicts when multiple agents implement a system
+---
+
+When multiple AI agents implement different parts of a system, they can make conflicting technical decisions. Architecture documentation prevents this by establishing shared standards.
+
+## Common Conflict Types
+
+### API Style Conflicts
+
+Without architecture:
+- Agent A uses REST with `/users/{id}`
+- Agent B uses GraphQL mutations
+- Result: Inconsistent API patterns, confused consumers
+
+With architecture:
+- ADR specifies: "Use GraphQL for all client-server communication"
+- All agents follow the same pattern
+
+### Database Design Conflicts
+
+Without architecture:
+- Agent A uses snake_case column names
+- Agent B uses camelCase column names
+- Result: Inconsistent schema, confusing queries
+
+With architecture:
+- Standards document specifies naming conventions
+- All agents follow the same patterns
+
+### State Management Conflicts
+
+Without architecture:
+- Agent A uses Redux for global state
+- Agent B uses React Context
+- Result: Multiple state management approaches, complexity
+
+With architecture:
+- ADR specifies state management approach
+- All agents implement consistently
+
+## How Architecture Prevents Conflicts
+
+### 1. Explicit Decisions via ADRs
+
+Every significant technology choice is documented with:
+- Context (why this decision matters)
+- Options considered (what alternatives exist)
+- Decision (what we chose)
+- Rationale (why we chose it)
+- Consequences (trade-offs accepted)
+
+### 2. FR/NFR-Specific Guidance
+
+Architecture maps each functional requirement to technical approach:
+- FR-001: User Management → GraphQL mutations
+- FR-002: Mobile App → Optimized queries
+
+### 3. Standards and Conventions
+
+Explicit documentation of:
+- Directory structure
+- Naming conventions
+- Code organization
+- Testing patterns
+
+## Architecture as Shared Context
+
+Think of architecture as the shared context that all agents read before implementing:
+
+```
+PRD: "What to build"
+     ↓
+Architecture: "How to build it"
+     ↓
+Agent A reads architecture → implements Epic 1
+Agent B reads architecture → implements Epic 2
+Agent C reads architecture → implements Epic 3
+     ↓
+Result: Consistent implementation
+```
+
+## Key ADR Topics
+
+Common decisions that prevent conflicts:
+
+| Topic            | Example Decision                             |
+| ---------------- | -------------------------------------------- |
+| API Style        | GraphQL vs REST vs gRPC                      |
+| Database         | PostgreSQL vs MongoDB                        |
+| Auth             | JWT vs Sessions                              |
+| State Management | Redux vs Context vs Zustand                  |
+| Styling          | CSS Modules vs Tailwind vs Styled Components |
+| Testing          | Jest + Playwright vs Vitest + Cypress        |
+
+## Anti-Patterns to Avoid
+
+:::caution[Common Mistakes]
+- **Implicit Decisions** — "We'll figure out the API style as we go" leads to inconsistency
+- **Over-Documentation** — Documenting every minor choice causes analysis paralysis
+- **Stale Architecture** — Documents written once and never updated cause agents to follow outdated patterns
+:::
+
+:::tip[Correct Approach]
+- Document decisions that cross epic boundaries
+- Focus on conflict-prone areas
+- Update architecture as you learn
+- Use `correct-course` for significant changes

+title: "Why Solutioning Matters"
+description: Understanding why the solutioning phase is critical for multi-epic projects
+---
+
+
+Phase 3 (Solutioning) translates **what** to build (from Planning) into **how** to build it (technical design). This phase prevents agent conflicts in multi-epic projects by documenting architectural decisions before implementation begins.
+
+## The Problem Without Solutioning
+
+```
+Agent 1 implements Epic 1 using REST API
+Agent 2 implements Epic 2 using GraphQL
+Result: Inconsistent API design, integration nightmare
+```
+
+When multiple agents implement different parts of a system without shared architectural guidance, they make independent technical decisions that may conflict.
+
+## The Solution With Solutioning
+
+```
+architecture workflow decides: "Use GraphQL for all APIs"
+All agents follow architecture decisions
+Result: Consistent implementation, no conflicts
+```
+
+By documenting technical decisions explicitly, all agents implement consistently and integration becomes straightforward.
+
+## Solutioning vs Planning
+
+| Aspect   | Planning (Phase 2)      | Solutioning (Phase 3)             |
+| -------- | ----------------------- | --------------------------------- |
+| Question | What and Why?           | How? Then What units of work?     |
+| Output   | FRs/NFRs (Requirements) | Architecture + Epics/Stories      |
+| Agent    | PM                      | Architect → PM                    |
+| Audience | Stakeholders            | Developers                        |
+| Document | PRD (FRs/NFRs)          | Architecture + Epic Files         |
+| Level    | Business logic          | Technical design + Work breakdown |
+
+## Key Principle
+
+**Make technical decisions explicit and documented** so all agents implement consistently.
+
+This prevents:
+- API style conflicts (REST vs GraphQL)
+- Database design inconsistencies
+- State management disagreements
+- Naming convention mismatches
+- Security approach variations
+
+## When Solutioning is Required
+
+| Track | Solutioning Required? |
+|-------|----------------------|
+| Quick Flow | No - skip entirely |
+| BMad Method Simple | Optional |
+| BMad Method Complex | Yes |
+| Enterprise | Yes |
+
+:::tip[Rule of Thumb]
+If you have multiple epics that could be implemented by different agents, you need solutioning.
+:::
+
+## The Cost of Skipping
+
+Skipping solutioning on complex projects leads to:
+
+- **Integration issues** discovered mid-sprint
+- **Rework** due to conflicting implementations
+- **Longer development time** overall
+- **Technical debt** from inconsistent patterns
+
+:::caution[Cost Multiplier]
+Catching alignment issues in solutioning is 10× faster than discovering them during implementation.

+title: "Brownfield Development"
+description: How to use BMad Method on existing codebases
+---
+
+Use BMad Method effectively when working on existing projects and legacy codebases.
+
+## What is Brownfield Development?
+
+**Brownfield** refers to working on existing projects with established codebases and patterns, as opposed to **greenfield** which means starting from scratch with a clean slate.
+
+This guide covers the essential workflow for onboarding to brownfield projects with BMad Method.
+
+:::note[Prerequisites]
+- BMad Method installed (`npx bmad-method install`)
+- An existing codebase you want to work on
+- Access to an AI-powered IDE (Claude Code, Cursor, or Windsurf)
+:::
+
+## Step 1: Clean Up Completed Planning Artifacts
+
+If you have completed all PRD epics and stories through the BMad process, clean up those files. Archive them, delete them, or rely on version history if needed. Do not keep these files in:
+
+- `docs/`
+- `_bmad-output/planning-artifacts/`
+- `_bmad-output/implementation-artifacts/`
+
+## Step 2: Maintain Quality Project Documentation
+
+Your `docs/` folder should contain succinct, well-organized documentation that accurately represents your project:
+
+- Intent and business rationale
+- Business rules
+- Architecture
+- Any other relevant project information
+
+For complex projects, consider using the `document-project` workflow. It offers runtime variants that will scan your entire project and document its actual current state.
+
+## Step 3: Get Help
+
+Get help to know what to do next based on your unique needs
+
+Run `bmad-help` to get guidance when you are not sure what to do next.
+
+### Choosing Your Approach
+
+You have two primary options depending on the scope of changes:
+
+| Scope                          | Recommended Approach                                                                                                          |
+| ------------------------------ | ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- |
+| **Small updates or additions** | Use `quick-flow-solo-dev` to create a tech-spec and implement the change. The full four-phase BMad method is likely overkill. |
+| **Major changes or additions** | Start with the BMad method, applying as much or as little rigor as needed.                                                    |
+
+### During PRD Creation
+
+When creating a brief or jumping directly into the PRD, ensure the agent:
+
+- Finds and analyzes your existing project documentation
+- Reads the proper context about your current system
+
+You can guide the agent explicitly, but the goal is to ensure the new feature integrates well with your existing system.
+
+### UX Considerations
+
+UX work is optional. The decision depends not on whether your project has a UX, but on:
+
+- Whether you will be working on UX changes
+- Whether significant new UX designs or patterns are needed
+
+If your changes amount to simple updates to existing screens you are happy with, a full UX process is unnecessary.
+
+### Architecture Considerations
+
+When doing architecture, ensure the architect:
+
+- Uses the proper documented files
+- Scans the existing codebase
+
+Pay close attention here to prevent reinventing the wheel or making decisions that misalign with your existing architecture.

+description: How to make quick fixes and ad-hoc changes in brownfield projects
+---
+
+Use the **DEV agent** directly for bug fixes, refactorings, or small targeted changes that don't require the full BMad method or Quick Flow.
+
+## When to Use This
+
+- Simple bug fixes
+- Small refactorings and changes that don't need extensive ideation, planning, or architectural shifts
+- Larger refactorings or improvement with built in tool planning and execution mode combination, or better yet use quick flow
+- Learning about your codebase
+
+## Steps
+
+### 1. Load an Agent
+
+For quick fixes, you can use:
+
+- **DEV agent** - For implementation-focused work
+- **Quick Flow Solo Dev** - For slightly larger changes that still need a quick-spec to keep the agent aligned to planning and standards
+
+### 2. Describe the Change
+
+Simply tell the agent what you need:
+
+```
+Fix the login validation bug that allows empty passwords
+```
+
+or
+
+```
+Refactor the UserService to use async/await instead of callbacks
+```
+
+### 3. Let the Agent Work
+
+The agent will:
+
+- Analyze the relevant code
+- Propose a solution
+- Implement the change
+- Run tests (if available)
+
+### 4. Review and Commit
+
+Review the changes made and commit when satisfied.
+
+## Learning Your Codebase
+
+This approach is also excellent for exploring unfamiliar code:
+
+```
+Explain how the authentication system works in this codebase
+```
+
+```
+Show me where error handling happens in the API layer
+```
+
+LLMs are excellent at interpreting and analyzing code, whether it was AI-generated or not. Use the agent to:
+
+- Learn about your project
+- Understand how things are built
+- Explore unfamiliar parts of the codebase
+
+## When to Upgrade to Formal Planning
+
+Consider using Quick Flow or full BMad Method when:
+
+- The change affects multiple files or systems
+- You're unsure about the scope
+- The fix keeps growing in complexity
+- You need documentation for the change

+title: "BMad Method Customization Guide"
+---
+
+The ability to customize the BMad Method and its core to your needs, while still being able to get updates and enhancements is a critical idea within the BMad Ecosystem.
+
+The Customization Guidance outlined here, while targeted at understanding BMad Method customization, applies to any other module use within the BMad Method.
+
+## Types of Customization
+
+Customization includes Agent Customization, Workflow/Skill customization, the addition of new MCPs or Skills to be used by existing agents. Aside from all of this, a whole other realm of customization involves creating / adding your own relevant BMad Builder workflows, skills, agents and maybe even your own net new modules to compliment the BMad Method Module.
+
+Warning: The reason for customizing as this guide will prescribe will allow you to continue getting updates without worrying about losing your customization changes. And by continuing to get updates as BMad modules advance, you will be able to continue to evolve as the system improves.
+
+## Agent Customization
+
+### Agent Customization Areas
+
+- Change agent names, personas or manner of speech
+- Add project-specific memories or context
+- Add custom menu items to custom or inline prompts, skills or custom BMad workflows
+- Define critical actions that occur agent startup for consistent behavior
+
+## How to customize an agent.
+
+**1. Locate Customization Files**
+
+After installation, find agent customization files in:
+
+```
+_bmad/_config/agents/
+├── core-bmad-master.customize.yaml
+├── bmm-dev.customize.yaml
+├── bmm-pm.customize.yaml
+└── ... (one file per installed agent)
+```
+
+**2. Edit Any Agent**
+
+Open the `.customize.yaml` file for the agent you want to modify. All sections are optional - customize only what you need.
+
+**3. Rebuild the Agent**
+
+After editing, IT IS CRITICAL to rebuild the agent to apply changes:
+
+```bash
+npx bmad-method install
+```
+
+You can either then:
+
+- Select `Quick Update` - This will also ensure all packages are up to date AND compile all agents to include any updates or customizations
+- Select `Rebuild Agents` - This will only rebuild and apply customizations to agents, without pulling the latest
+
+There will be additional tools shortly after beta launch to allow install of individual agents, workflows, skills and modules without the need for using the full bmad installer.
+
+### What Agent Properties Can Be Customized?
+
+#### Agent Name
+
+Change how the agent introduces itself:
+
+```yaml
+agent:
+  metadata:
+    name: 'Spongebob' # Default: "Amelia"
+```
+
+#### Persona
+
+Replace the agent's personality, role, and communication style:
+
+```yaml
+persona:
+  role: 'Senior Full-Stack Engineer'
+  identity: 'Lives in a pineapple (under the sea)'
+  communication_style: 'Spongebob annoying'
+  principles:
+    - 'Never Nester, Spongebob Devs hate nesting more than 2 levels deep'
+    - 'Favor composition over inheritance'
+```
+
+**Note:** The persona section replaces the entire default persona (not merged).
+
+#### Memories
+
+Add persistent context the agent will always remember:
+
+```yaml
+memories:
+  - 'Works at Krusty Krab'
+  - 'Favorite Celebrity: David Hasslehoff'
+  - 'Learned in Epic 1 that its not cool to just pretend that tests have passed'
+```
+
+### Custom Menu Items
+
+Any custom items you add here will be included in the agents display menu.
+
+```yaml
+menu:
+  - trigger: my-workflow
+    workflow: '{project-root}/my-custom/workflows/my-workflow.yaml'
+    description: My custom workflow
+  - trigger: deploy
+    action: '#deploy-prompt'
+    description: Deploy to production
+```
+
+### Critical Actions
+
+Add instructions that execute before the agent starts:
+
+```yaml
+critical_actions:
+  - 'Check the CI Pipelines with the XYZ Skill and alert user on wake if anything is urgently needing attention'
+```
+
+### Custom Prompts
+
+Define reusable prompts for `action="#id"` menu handlers:
+
+```yaml
+prompts:
+  - id: deploy-prompt
+    content: |
+      Deploy the current branch to production:
+      1. Run all tests
+      2. Build the project
+      3. Execute deployment script
+```
+
+## Troubleshooting
+
+**Changes not appearing?**
+
+- Make sure you ran `npx bmad-method build <agent-name>` after editing
+- Check YAML syntax is valid (indentation matters!)
+- Verify the agent name matches the file name pattern
+
+**Agent not loading?**
+
+- Check for YAML syntax errors
+- Ensure required fields aren't left empty if you uncommented them
+- Try reverting to the template and rebuilding
+
+**Need to reset?**
+
+- Remove content from the `.customize.yaml` file (or delete the file)
+- Run `npx bmad-method build <agent-name>` to regenerate defaults
+
+## Workflow Customization
+
+Information about customizing existing BMad Method workflows and skills are coming soon.
+
+## Module Customization
+
+Information on how to build expansion modules that augment BMad, or make other existing module customizations are coming soon.

+description: Use an LLM to quickly answer your own BMad questions
+---
+
+If you have successfully installed BMad and the BMad Method (+ other modules as needed) - the first step in getting answers is `/bmad-help`. This will answer upwards of 80% of all questions and is available to you in the IDE as you are working.
+
+## When to Use This
+
+- You have a question about how BMad works or what to do next with BMad
+- You want to understand a specific agent or workflow
+- You need quick answers without waiting for Discord
+
+:::note[Prerequisites]
+An AI tool (Claude Code, Cursor, ChatGPT, Claude.ai, etc.) and either BMad installed in your project or access to the GitHub repo.
+:::
+
+## Steps
+
+### 1. Choose Your Source
+
+| Source               | Best For                                  | Examples                     |
+| -------------------- | ----------------------------------------- | ---------------------------- |
+| **`_bmad` folder**   | How BMad works—agents, workflows, prompts | "What does the PM agent do?" |
+| **Full GitHub repo** | History, installer, architecture          | "What changed in v6?"        |
+| **`llms-full.txt`**  | Quick overview from docs                  | "Explain BMad's four phases" |
+
+The `_bmad` folder is created when you install BMad. If you don't have it yet, clone the repo instead.
+
+### 2. Point Your AI at the Source
+
+**If your AI can read files (Claude Code, Cursor, etc.):**
+
+- **BMad installed:** Point at the `_bmad` folder and ask directly
+- **Want deeper context:** Clone the [full repo](https://github.com/bmad-code-org/BMAD-METHOD)
+
+**If you use ChatGPT or Claude.ai:**
+
+Fetch `llms-full.txt` into your session:
+
+```
+https://bmad-code-org.github.io/BMAD-METHOD/llms-full.txt
+```
+
+See the [Downloads page](/docs/downloads.md) for other downloadable resources.
+
+### 3. Ask Your Question
+
+:::note[Example]
+**Q:** "Tell me the fastest way to build something with BMad"
+
+**A:** Use Quick Flow: Run `quick-spec` to write a technical specification, then `quick-dev` to implement it—skipping the full planning phases.
+:::
+
+## What You Get
+
+Direct answers about BMad—how agents work, what workflows do, why things are structured the way they are—without waiting for someone else to respond.
+
+## Tips
+
+- **Verify surprising answers** — LLMs occasionally get things wrong. Check the source file or ask on Discord.
+- **Be specific** — "What does step 3 of the PRD workflow do?" beats "How does PRD work?"
+
+## Still Stuck?
+
+Tried the LLM approach and still need help? You now have a much better question to ask.

+title: "How to Install BMad"
+description: Step-by-step guide to installing BMad in your project
+---
+
+Use the `npx bmad-method install` command to set up BMad in your project with your choice of modules and AI tools.
+
+## When to Use This
+
+- Starting a new project with BMad
+- Adding BMad to an existing codebase
+- Update the existing BMad Installation
+
+:::note[Prerequisites]
+- **Node.js** 20+ (required for the installer)
+- **Git** (recommended)
+- **AI tool** (Claude Code, Cursor, Windsurf, or similar)
+:::
+
+## Steps
+
+### 1. Run the Installer
+
+```bash
+npx bmad-method install
+```
+
+### 2. Choose Installation Location
+
+The installer will ask where to install BMad files:
+
+- Current directory (recommended for new projects if you created the directory yourself and ran from within the directory)
+- Custom path
+
+### 3. Select Your AI Tools
+
+Pick which AI tools you use:
+
+- Claude Code
+- Cursor
+- Windsurf
+- Others
+
+Each tool has its own way of integrating commands. The installer creates tiny prompt files to activate workflows and agents — it just puts them where your tool expects to find them.
+
+### 4. Choose Modules
+
+The installer shows available modules. Select whichever ones you need — most users just want **BMad Method** (the software development module).
+
+### 5. Follow the Prompts
+
+The installer guides you through the rest — custom content, settings, etc.
+
+## What You Get
+
+```
+your-project/
+├── _bmad/
+│   ├── bmm/            # Your selected modules
+│   │   └── config.yaml # Module settings (if you ever need to change them)
+│   ├── core/           # Required core module
+│   └── ...
+├── _bmad-output/       # Generated artifacts
+└── .claude/            # Claude Code commands (if using Claude Code)
+```
+
+## Verify Installation
+
+Run the `help` workflow (`/bmad-help` on most platforms) to verify everything works and see what to do next.
+
+**Latest from main branch:**
+```bash
+npx github:bmad-code-org/BMAD-METHOD install
+```
+
+Use these if you want the newest features before they're officially released. Things might break.
+
+## Troubleshooting
+
+**Installer throws an error** — Copy-paste the output into your AI assistant and let it figure it out.

+title: "Document Sharding Guide"
+---
+
+Use the `shard-doc` tool to split large markdown files into smaller, organized files for better context management.
+
+## When to Use This
+
+- Very large complex PRDs
+- Architecture documents with multiple system layers
+- Epic files with 4+ epics (especially for Phase 4)
+- UX design specs covering multiple subsystems
+
+## What is Document Sharding?
+
+Document sharding splits large markdown files into smaller, organized files based on level 2 headings (`## Heading`). This enables:
+
+- **Selective Loading** - Workflows load only the sections they need
+- **Reduced Token Usage** - Massive efficiency gains for large projects
+- **Better Organization** - Logical section-based file structure
+- **Maintained Context** - Index file preserves document structure
+
+### Architecture
+
+```
+Before Sharding:
+docs/
+└── PRD.md (large 50k token file)
+
+After Sharding:
+docs/
+└── prd/
+    ├── index.md                    # Table of contents with descriptions
+    ├── overview.md                 # Section 1
+    ├── user-requirements.md        # Section 2
+    ├── technical-requirements.md   # Section 3
+    └── ...                         # Additional sections
+```
+
+## Steps
+
+### 1. Run the Shard-Doc Tool
+
+```bash
+/bmad:core:tools:shard-doc
+```
+
+### 2. Follow the Interactive Process
+
+```
+Agent: Which document would you like to shard?
+User: docs/PRD.md
+
+Agent: Default destination: docs/prd/
+       Accept default? [y/n]
+User: y
+
+Agent: Sharding PRD.md...
+       ✓ Created 12 section files
+       ✓ Generated index.md
+       ✓ Complete!
+```
+
+## What You Get
+
+**index.md structure:**
+
+```markdown
+
+## Sections
+
+1. [Overview](./overview.md) - Project vision and objectives
+2. [User Requirements](./user-requirements.md) - Feature specifications
+3. [Epic 1: Authentication](./epic-1-authentication.md) - User auth system
+4. [Epic 2: Dashboard](./epic-2-dashboard.md) - Main dashboard UI
+   ...
+```
+
+**Individual section files:**
+
+- Named from heading text (kebab-case)
+- Contains complete section content
+- Preserves all markdown formatting
+- Can be read independently
+
+## How Workflow Discovery Works
+
+BMad workflows use a **dual discovery system**:
+
+1. **Try whole document first** - Look for `document-name.md`
+2. **Check for sharded version** - Look for `document-name/index.md`
+3. **Priority rule** - Whole document takes precedence if both exist - remove the whole document if you want the sharded to be used instead
+
+## Workflow Support
+
+All BMM workflows support both formats:
+
+- Whole documents
+- Sharded documents
+- Automatic detection
+- Transparent to user

+title: "How to Upgrade to v6"
+description: Migrate from BMad v4 to v6
+---
+
+Use the BMad installer to upgrade from v4 to v6, which includes automatic detection of legacy installations and migration assistance.
+
+## When to Use This
+
+- You have BMad v4 installed (`.bmad-method` folder)
+- You want to migrate to the new v6 architecture
+- You have existing planning artifacts to preserve
+
+:::note[Prerequisites]
+- Node.js 20+
+- Existing BMad v4 installation
+:::
+
+## Steps
+
+### 1. Run the Installer
+
+```bash
+npx bmad-method install
+```
+
+The installer automatically detects:
+
+- **Legacy v4 folder**: `.bmad-method`
+- **IDE command artifacts**: Legacy bmad folders in `.claude/commands/`, `.cursor/commands/`, etc.
+
+### 2. Handle Legacy Installation
+
+When v4 is detected, you can:
+
+- Allow the installer to back up and remove `.bmad-method`
+- Exit and handle cleanup manually
+- Keep both (not recommended for same project)
+
+### 3. Clean Up IDE Commands
+
+Manually remove legacy v4 IDE commands:
+
+- `.claude/commands/BMad/agents`
+- `.claude/commands/BMad/tasks`
+
+New v6 commands will be at `.claude/commands/bmad/<module>/agents|workflows`.
+
+:::tip[Accidentally Deleted Commands?]
+If you delete the wrong commands, rerun the installer and choose "quick update" to restore them.
+:::
+
+### 4. Migrate Planning Artifacts
+
+**If you have planning documents (Brief/PRD/UX/Architecture):**
+
+Move them to `_bmad-output/planning-artifacts/` with descriptive names:
+
+- Include `PRD` in filename for PRD documents
+- Include `brief`, `architecture`, or `ux-design` accordingly
+- Sharded documents can be in named subfolders
+
+**If you're mid-planning:** Consider restarting with v6 workflows. Use your existing documents as inputs—the new progressive discovery workflows with web search and IDE plan mode produce better results.
+
+### 5. Migrate In-Progress Development
+
+If you have stories created or implemented:
+
+1. Complete the v6 installation
+2. Place `epics.md` or `epics/epic*.md` in `_bmad-output/planning-artifacts/`
+3. Run the Scrum Master's `sprint-planning` workflow
+4. Tell the SM which epics/stories are already complete
+
+### 6. Migrate Agent Customizations
+
+**v4:** Modified agent files directly in `_bmad-*` folders
+
+**v6:** All customizations go in `_bmad/_config/agents/` using customize files:
+
+```yaml
+# _bmad/_config/agents/bmm-pm.customize.yaml
+persona:
+  name: 'Captain Jack'
+  role: 'Swashbuckling Product Owner'
+  communication_style: |
+    - Talk like a pirate
+    - Use nautical metaphors
+```
+
+After modifying customization files, rerun the installer and choose "rebuild all agents" or "quick update".
+
+## What You Get
+
+**v6 unified structure:**
+
+```
+your-project/
+└── _bmad/               # Single installation folder
+    ├── _config/         # Your customizations
+    │   └── agents/      # Agent customization files
+    ├── core/            # Universal core framework
+    ├── bmm/             # BMad Method module
+    ├── bmb/             # BMad Builder
+    └── cis/             # Creative Intelligence Suite
+├── _bmad-output/        # Output folder (was doc folder in v4)
+```
+
+## Module Migration
+
+| v4 Module | v6 Status |
+|-----------|-----------|
+| `_bmad-2d-phaser-game-dev` | Integrated into BMGD Module |
+| `_bmad-2d-unity-game-dev` | Integrated into BMGD Module |
+| `_bmad-godot-game-dev` | Integrated into BMGD Module |
+| `_bmad-infrastructure-devops` | Deprecated — new DevOps agent coming soon |
+| `_bmad-creative-writing` | Not adapted — new v6 module coming soon |
+
+## Key Changes
+
+| Concept | v4 | v6 |
+|---------|----|----|
+| **Core** | `_bmad-core` was actually BMad Method | `_bmad/core/` is universal framework |
+| **Method** | `_bmad-method` | `_bmad/bmm/` |
+| **Config** | Modified files directly | `config.yaml` per module |
+| **Documents** | Sharded or unsharded required setup | Fully flexible, auto-scanned |
+
+## Tips
+
+- **Back up first** — Keep your v4 installation until you verify v6 works
+- **Use v6 workflows** — Even partial planning docs benefit from v6's improved discovery
+- **Rebuild after customizing** — Always run the installer after changing customize files

-# Rovo Dev IDE Integration
-
-This document describes how BMAD-METHOD integrates with [Atlassian Rovo Dev](https://www.atlassian.com/rovo-dev), an AI-powered software development assistant.
-
-## Overview
-
-Rovo Dev is designed to integrate deeply with developer workflows and organizational knowledge bases. When you install BMAD-METHOD in a Rovo Dev project, it automatically installs BMAD agents, workflows, tasks, and tools just like it does for other IDEs (Cursor, VS Code, etc.).
-
-BMAD-METHOD provides:
-
-- **Agents**: Specialized subagents for various development tasks
-- **Workflows**: Multi-step workflow guides and coordinators
-- **Tasks & Tools**: Reference documentation for BMAD tasks and tools
-
-### What are Rovo Dev Subagents?
-
-Subagents are specialized agents that Rovo Dev can delegate tasks to. They are defined as Markdown files with YAML frontmatter stored in the `.rovodev/subagents/` directory. Rovo Dev automatically discovers these files and makes them available through the `@subagent-name` syntax.
-
-## Installation and Setup
-
-### Automatic Installation
-
-When you run the BMAD-METHOD installer and select Rovo Dev as your IDE:
-
-```bash
-bmad install
-```
-
-The installer will:
-
-1. Create a `.rovodev/subagents/` directory in your project (if it doesn't exist)
-2. Convert BMAD agents into Rovo Dev subagent format
-3. Write subagent files with the naming pattern: `bmad-<module>-<agent-name>.md`
-
-### File Structure
-
-After installation, your project will have:
-
-```
-project-root/
-├── .rovodev/
-│   ├── subagents/
-│   │   ├── bmad-core-code-reviewer.md
-│   │   ├── bmad-bmm-pm.md

-
-- **subagents/**: Agents discovered and used by Rovo Dev with `@agent-name` syntax
-- **workflows/**: Multi-step workflow guides and instructions
-- **references/**: Documentation for available tasks and tools in BMAD
-
-## Subagent File Format
-
-BMAD agents are converted to Rovo Dev subagent format, which uses Markdown with YAML frontmatter:
-
-### Basic Structure
-
-```markdown
----
-name: bmad-module-agent-name
-description: One sentence description of what this agent does
-tools:
-  - bash
-  - open_files
-  - grep
-  - expand_code_chunks
-model: anthropic.claude-3-5-sonnet-20241022-v2:0 # Optional
-load_memory: true # Optional
----
-
-You are a specialized agent for [specific task].
-
-## Your Role
-
-Describe the agent's role and responsibilities...
-
-## Key Instructions
-
-1. First instruction
-2. Second instruction
-3. Third instruction
-
-## When to Use This Agent
-
-Explain when and how to use this agent...
-```
-
-### YAML Frontmatter Fields
-
-| Field         | Type    | Required | Description                                                                                                                           |
-| ------------- | ------- | -------- | ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- |
-| `name`        | string  | Yes      | Unique identifier for the subagent (kebab-case, no spaces)                                                                            |
-| `description` | string  | Yes      | One-line description of the subagent's purpose                                                                                        |
-| `tools`       | array   | No       | List of tools the subagent can use. If not specified, uses parent agent's tools                                                       |
-| `model`       | string  | No       | Specific LLM model for this subagent (e.g., `anthropic.claude-3-5-sonnet-20241022-v2:0`). If not specified, uses parent agent's model |
-| `load_memory` | boolean | No       | Whether to load default memory files (AGENTS.md, AGENTS.local.md). Defaults to `true`                                                 |
-
-### System Prompt
-
-The content after the closing `---` is the subagent's system prompt. This defines:
-
-- The agent's persona and role
-- Its capabilities and constraints
-- Step-by-step instructions for task execution
-- Examples of expected behavior
-
-## Using BMAD Components in Rovo Dev
-
-### Invoking a Subagent (Agent)

-Workflow guides are available in `.rovodev/workflows/` directory:
-
-```
-@bmad-core-code-reviewer Use the brainstorming workflow from .rovodev/workflows/bmad-brainstorming.md
-```
-
-Workflow files contain step-by-step instructions and can be referenced or copied into Rovo Dev for collaborative workflow execution.
-
-### Accessing Tasks and Tools
-

-
-## Customizing BMAD Subagents
-
-You can customize BMAD subagents after installation by editing their files directly in `.rovodev/subagents/`.
-
-### Example: Adding Tool Restrictions
-
-By default, BMAD subagents inherit tools from the parent Rovo Dev agent. You can restrict which tools a specific subagent can use:
-
-```yaml
----
-name: bmad-core-code-reviewer
-description: Reviews code and suggests improvements
-tools:
-  - open_files
-  - expand_code_chunks
-  - grep
----
-```
-
-### Example: Using a Specific Model
-
-Some agents might benefit from using a different model. You can specify this:
-
-```yaml
----
-name: bmad-core-documentation-writer
-description: Writes clear and comprehensive documentation
-model: anthropic.claude-3-5-sonnet-20241022-v2:0
----
-```
-
-### Example: Enhancing the System Prompt
-
-You can add additional context to a subagent's system prompt:
-
-```markdown
----
-name: bmad-core-code-reviewer
-description: Reviews code and suggests improvements
----
-
-You are a specialized code review agent for our project.
-
-## Project Context
-
-Our codebase uses:
-
-- React 18 for frontend
-- Node.js 18+ for backend
-- TypeScript for type safety
-- Jest for testing
-
-## Review Checklist
-
-1. Type safety and TypeScript correctness
-2. React best practices and hooks usage
-3. Performance considerations
-4. Test coverage
-5. Documentation and comments
-
-...rest of original system prompt...
-```
-
-## Memory and Context
-
-By default, BMAD subagents have `load_memory: true`, which means they will load memory files from your project:
-
-- **Project-level**: `.rovodev/AGENTS.md` and `.rovodev/.agent.md`
-- **User-level**: `~/.rovodev/AGENTS.md` (global memory across all projects)
-
-These files can contain:
-
-- Project guidelines and conventions
-- Common patterns and best practices
-- Recent decisions and context
-- Custom instructions for all agents
-
-### Creating Project Memory
-
-Create `.rovodev/AGENTS.md` in your project:
-
-```markdown
-# Project Guidelines
-
-## Code Style
-
-- Use 2-space indentation
-- Use camelCase for variables
-- Use PascalCase for classes
-
-## Architecture
-
-- Follow modular component structure
-- Use dependency injection for services
-- Implement proper error handling
-
-## Testing Requirements
-
-- Minimum 80% code coverage
-- Write tests before implementation
-- Use descriptive test names
-```
-
-## Troubleshooting
-
-### Subagents Not Appearing in Rovo Dev
-
-1. **Verify files exist**: Check that `.rovodev/subagents/bmad-*.md` files are present
-2. **Check Rovo Dev is reloaded**: Rovo Dev may cache agent definitions. Restart Rovo Dev or reload the project
-3. **Verify file format**: Ensure files have proper YAML frontmatter (between `---` markers)
-4. **Check file permissions**: Ensure files are readable by Rovo Dev
-
-### Agent Name Conflicts
-
-If you have custom subagents with the same names as BMAD agents, Rovo Dev will load both but may show a warning. Use unique prefixes for custom subagents to avoid conflicts.
-
-### Tools Not Available
-
-If a subagent's tools aren't working:
-
-1. Verify the tool names match Rovo Dev's available tools
-2. Check that the parent Rovo Dev agent has access to those tools
-3. Ensure tool permissions are properly configured in `.rovodev/config.yml`
-
-## Advanced: Tool Configuration
-
-Rovo Dev agents have access to a set of tools for various tasks. Common tools available include:
-
-- `bash`: Execute shell commands
-- `open_files`: View file contents
-- `grep`: Search across files
-- `expand_code_chunks`: View specific code sections
-- `find_and_replace_code`: Modify files
-- `create_file`: Create new files
-- `delete_file`: Delete files
-- `move_file`: Rename or move files
-
-### MCP Servers
-
-Rovo Dev can also connect to Model Context Protocol (MCP) servers, which provide additional tools and data sources:
-
-- **Atlassian Integration**: Access to Jira, Confluence, and Bitbucket
-- **Code Analysis**: Custom code analysis and metrics
-- **External Services**: APIs and third-party integrations
-
-Configure MCP servers in `~/.rovodev/mcp.json` or `.rovodev/mcp.json`.
-
-## Integration with Other IDE Handlers
-
-BMAD-METHOD supports multiple IDEs simultaneously. You can have both Rovo Dev and other IDE configurations (Cursor, VS Code, etc.) in the same project. Each IDE will have its own artifacts installed in separate directories.
-
-For example:
-
-- Rovo Dev agents: `.rovodev/subagents/bmad-*.md`
-- Cursor rules: `.cursor/rules/bmad/`
-- Claude Code: `.claude/rules/bmad/`
-
-## Performance Considerations
-
-- BMAD subagent files are typically small (1-5 KB each)
-- Rovo Dev lazy-loads subagents, so having many subagents doesn't impact startup time
-- System prompts are cached by Rovo Dev after first load
-
-## Best Practices
-
-1. **Keep System Prompts Concise**: Shorter, well-structured prompts are more effective
-2. **Use Project Memory**: Leverage `.rovodev/AGENTS.md` for shared context
-3. **Customize Tool Restrictions**: Give subagents only the tools they need
-4. **Test Subagent Invocations**: Verify each subagent works as expected for your project
-5. **Version Control**: Commit `.rovodev/subagents/` to version control for team consistency
-6. **Document Custom Subagents**: Add comments explaining the purpose of customized subagents

-# IDE Content Injection Standard
-
-## Overview
-
-This document defines the standard for IDE-specific content injection in BMAD modules. Each IDE can inject its own specific content into BMAD templates during installation without polluting the source files with IDE-specific code. The installation process is interactive, allowing users to choose what IDE-specific features they want to install.
-
-## Architecture
-
-### 1. Injection Points
-
-Files that support IDE-specific content define injection points using HTML comments:
-
-```xml
-<!-- IDE-INJECT-POINT: unique-point-name -->
-```
-
-### 2. Module Structure
-
-Each module that needs IDE-specific content creates a sub-module folder:
-
-```
-src/modules/{module-name}/sub-modules/{ide-name}/
-  ├── injections.yaml    # Injection configuration
-  ├── sub-agents/        # IDE-specific subagents (if applicable)
-  └── config.yaml        # Other IDE-specific config
-```
-
-### 3. Injection Configuration Format
-
-The `injections.yaml` file defines what content to inject where:
-
-```yaml
-# injections.yaml structure
-injections:
-  - file: 'relative/path/to/file.md' # Path relative to installation root
-    point: 'injection-point-name' # Must match IDE-INJECT-POINT name
-    requires: 'subagent-name' # Which subagent must be selected (or "any")
-    content: | # Content to inject (preserves formatting)
-      <llm>
-        <i>Instructions specific to this IDE</i>
-      </llm>
-
-# Subagents available for installation
-subagents:
-  source: 'sub-agents' # Source folder relative to this config
-  target: '.claude/agents' # Claude's expected location (don't change)
-  files:
-    - 'agent1.md'
-    - 'agent2.md'
-```
-
-### 4. Interactive Installation Process
-
-For Claude Code specifically, the installer will:
-
-1. **Detect available subagents** from the module's `injections.yaml`
-2. **Ask the user** about subagent installation:
-   - Install all subagents (default)
-   - Select specific subagents
-   - Skip subagent installation
-3. **Ask installation location** (if subagents selected):
-   - Project level: `.claude/agents/`
-   - User level: `~/.claude/agents/`
-4. **Copy selected subagents** to the chosen location
-5. **Inject only relevant content** based on selected subagents
-
-Other IDEs can implement their own installation logic appropriate to their architecture.
-
-## Implementation
-
-### IDE Installer Responsibilities
-
-Each IDE installer (e.g., `claude-code.js`) must:
-
-1. **Check for sub-modules**: Look for `sub-modules/{ide-name}/` in each installed module
-2. **Load injection config**: Parse `injections.yaml` if present
-3. **Process injections**: Replace injection points with configured content
-4. **Copy additional files**: Handle subagents or other IDE-specific files
-
-### Example Implementation (Claude Code)
-
-```javascript
-async processModuleInjections(projectDir, bmadDir, options) {
-  for (const moduleName of options.selectedModules) {
-    const configPath = path.join(
-      bmadDir, 'src/modules', moduleName,
-      'sub-modules/claude-code/injections.yaml'
-    );
-
-    if (exists(configPath)) {
-      const config = yaml.load(configPath);
-
-      // Interactive: Ask user about subagent installation
-      const choices = await this.promptSubagentInstallation(config.subagents);
-
-      if (choices.install !== 'none') {
-        // Ask where to install
-        const location = await this.promptInstallLocation();
-
-        // Process injections based on selections
-        for (const injection of config.injections) {
-          if (this.shouldInject(injection, choices)) {
-            await this.injectContent(projectDir, injection, choices);
-          }
-        }
-
-        // Copy selected subagents
-        await this.copySelectedSubagents(projectDir, config.subagents, choices, location);
-      }
-    }
-  }
-}
-```
-
-## Benefits
-
-1. **Clean Source Files**: No IDE-specific conditionals in source
-2. **Modular**: Each IDE manages its own injections
-3. **Scalable**: Easy to add support for new IDEs
-4. **Maintainable**: IDE-specific content lives with IDE config
-5. **Flexible**: Different modules can inject different content
-
-## Adding Support for a New IDE
-
-1. Create sub-module folder: `src/modules/{module}/sub-modules/{new-ide}/`
-2. Add `injections.yaml` with IDE-specific content
-3. Update IDE installer to process injections using this standard
-4. Test installation with and without the IDE selected
-
-## Example: BMM Module with Claude Code
-
-### File Structure
-
-```

-## Overview
-
-BMad Core is a modular AI agent framework with intelligent installation, platform-agnostic support, and configuration inheritance.
-
-### Key Features
-
-- **Modular Design**: Core + optional modules (BMB, BMM, CIS)
-- **Smart Installation**: Interactive configuration with dependency resolution
-- **Clean Architecture**: Centralized `{bmad_folder}` directory add to project, no source pollution with multiple folders added
-
-## Architecture
-
-### Directory Structure upon installation
-
-```

-└── .claude/                   # Platform-specific (example)
-    └── agents/
-```
-
-### Installation Flow
-
-1. **Detection**: Check existing installation
-2. **Selection**: Choose modules interactively or via CLI
-3. **Configuration**: Collect module-specific settings
-4. **Installation**: Compile Process and copy files
-5. **Generation**: Create config files with inheritance
-6. **Post-Install**: Run module installers
-7. **Manifest**: Track installed components
-
-### Key Exclusions
-
-- `_module-installer/` directories are never copied to destination
-- `localskip="true"` agents are filtered out
-- Source `config.yaml` templates are replaced with generated configs
-
-## Modules
-
-### Core Module (Required)
-
-Foundation framework with C.O.R.E. (Collaboration Optimized Reflection Engine)
-
-- **Components**: Base agents, activation system, advanced elicitation
-- **Config**: `user_name`, `communication_language`
-
-### BMM Module
-
-BMad Method for software development workflows
-
-- **Components**: PM agent, dev tasks, PRD templates, story generation
-- **Config**: `project_name`, `tech_docs`, `output_folder`, `story_location`
-- **Dependencies**: Core
-
-### CIS Module
-
-Creative Innovation Studio for design workflows
-
-- **Components**: Design agents, creative tasks
-- **Config**: `output_folder`, design preferences

-
-### Module Structure
-
-```
-src/modules/{module}/
-├── _module-installer/       # Not copied to destination
-│   ├── installer.js        # Post-install logic
-│   └── install-config.yaml
-├── agents/
-├── tasks/
-├── templates/
-└── sub-modules/            # Platform-specific content
-    └── {platform}/
-        ├── injections.yaml
-        └── sub-agents/
-```
-
-## Configuration System
-
-### Collection Process
-
-Modules define prompts in `install-config.yaml`:
-
-```yaml
-project_name:
-  prompt: 'Project title?'
-  default: 'My Project'
-  result: '{value}'
-
-output_folder:
-  prompt: 'Output location?'
-  default: 'docs'
-  result: '{project-root}/{value}'
-
-tools:
-  prompt: 'Select tools:'
-  multi-select:
-    - 'Tool A'
-    - 'Tool B'
-```
-
-### Configuration Inheritance
-
-Core values cascade to ALL modules automatically:
-
-```yaml
-# core/config.yaml
-user_name: "Jane"
-communication_language: "English"
-
-# bmm/config.yaml (generated)
-project_name: "My App"
-tech_docs: "/path/to/docs"
-# Core Configuration Values (inherited)
-user_name: "Jane"
-communication_language: "English"
-```
-
-**Reserved Keys**: Core configuration keys cannot be redefined by other modules.
-
-### Path Placeholders
-
-- `{project-root}`: Project directory path
-- `{value}`: User input
-- `{module}`: Module name
-- `{core:field}`: Reference core config value
-
-### Config Generation Rules
-
-1. ALL installed modules get a `config.yaml` (even without prompts)
-2. Core values are ALWAYS included in module configs
-3. Module-specific values come first, core values appended
-4. Source templates are never copied, only generated configs
-
-## Platform Integration
-
-### Supported Platforms
-
-**Preferred** (Full Integration):
-
-- Claude Code
-- Cursor
-- Windsurf
-
-**Additional**:
-Cline, Roo, Rovo Dev,Auggie, GitHub Copilot, Codex, Gemini, Qwen, Trae, Kilo, Crush, iFlow
-
-### Platform Features
-
-1. **Setup Handler** (`tools/cli/installers/lib/ide/{platform}.js`)
-   - Directory creation
-   - Configuration generation
-   - Agent processing
-
-2. **Content Injection** (`sub-modules/{platform}/injections.yaml`)
-
-   ```yaml
-   injections:
-     - file: '{bmad_folder}/bmm/agents/pm.md'
-       point: 'pm-agent-instructions'
-       content: |
-         <i>Platform-specific instruction</i>
-
-   subagents:
-     source: 'sub-agents'
-     target: '.claude/agents'
-     files: ['agent.md']
-   ```
-
-3. **Interactive Config**
-   - Subagent selection
-   - Installation scope (project/user)
-   - Feature toggles
-
-### Injection System
-
-Platform-specific content without source modification:
-
-- Inject points marked in source: `<!-- IDE-INJECT-POINT:name -->`
-- Content added during installation only
-- Source files remain clean
-
-## Development Guide
-
-### Creating a Module
-
-1. **Structure**
-
-   ```
-   src/modules/mymod/
-   ├── _module-installer/
-   │   ├── installer.js
-   │   └── install-config.yaml
-   ├── agents/
-   └── tasks/
-   ```
-
-2. **Configuration** (`install-config.yaml`)
-
-   ```yaml
-   code: mymod
-   name: 'My Module'
-   prompt: 'Welcome message'
-
-   setting_name:
-     prompt: 'Configure X?'
-     default: 'value'
-   ```
-
-3. **Installer** (`installer.js`)
-   ```javascript
-   async function install(options) {
-     const { projectRoot, config, installedIDEs, logger } = options;
-     // Custom logic
-     return true;
-   }
-   module.exports = { install };
-   ```
-
-### Adding Platform Support
-
-1. Create handler: `tools/cli/installers/lib/ide/myplatform.js`
-2. Extend `BaseIdeSetup` class
-3. Add sub-module: `src/modules/{mod}/sub-modules/myplatform/`
-4. Define injections and platform agents
-
-### Agent Configuration
-
-Extractable config nodes:
-
-```xml
-<agent>
-  <setting agentConfig="true">
-    Default value
-  </setting>
-</agent>
-```
-
-Generated in: `bmad/_cfg/agents/{module}-{agent}.md`
-
-## Troubleshooting
-
-### Common Issues
-
-| Issue                   | Solution                                     |
-| ----------------------- | -------------------------------------------- |
-| Existing installation   | Use `bmad update` or remove `{bmad_folder}/` |
-| Module not found        | Check `src/modules/` exists                  |
-| Config not applied      | Verify `{bmad_folder}/{module}/config.yaml`  |
-| Missing config.yaml     | Fixed: All modules now get configs           |
-| Agent unavailable       | Check for `localskip="true"`                 |
-| module-installer copied | Fixed: Now excluded from copy                |
-
-### Debug Commands
-
-```bash
-bmad install -v     # Verbose installation
-bmad status -v      # Detailed status
-```
-
-### Best Practices
-
-1. Run from project root
-2. Backup `{bmad_folder}/_cfg/` before updates
-3. Use interactive mode for guidance
-4. Review generated configs post-install
-
-## Migration from v4
-
-| v4                  | v6                           |
-| ------------------- | ---------------------------- |
-| Scattered files     | Centralized `{bmad_folder}/` |
-| Monolithic          | Modular                      |
-| Manual config       | Interactive setup            |
-| Limited IDE support | 15+ platforms                |
-| Source modification | Clean injection              |
-
-## Technical Notes
-
-### Dependency Resolution
-
-- Direct dependencies (module → module)
-- Agent references (cross-module)
-- Template dependencies
-- Partial module installation (only required files)
-- Workflow vendoring for standalone module operation
-
-## Workflow Vendoring
-
-**Problem**: Modules that reference workflows from other modules create dependencies, forcing users to install multiple modules even when they only need one.
-
-**Solution**: Workflow vendoring allows modules to copy workflows from other modules during installation, making them fully standalone.
-
-### How It Works
-
-Agents can specify both `workflow` (source location) and `workflow-install` (destination location) in their menu items:
-
-```yaml
-menu:
-  - trigger: create-story
-    workflow: '{project-root}/{bmad_folder}/bmm/workflows/4-implementation/create-story/workflow.yaml'
-    workflow-install: '{project-root}/{bmad_folder}/bmgd/workflows/4-production/create-story/workflow.yaml'
-    description: 'Create a game feature story'
-```
-
-**During Installation:**
-
-1. **Vendoring Phase**: Before copying module files, the installer:
-   - Scans source agent YAML files for `workflow-install` attributes
-   - Copies entire workflow folders from `workflow` path to `workflow-install` path
-   - Updates vendored `workflow.yaml` files to reference target module's config
-
-2. **Compilation Phase**: When compiling agents:
-   - If `workflow-install` exists, uses its value for the `workflow` attribute
-   - `workflow-install` is build-time metadata only, never appears in final XML
-   - Compiled agent references vendored workflow location
-
-3. **Config Update**: Vendored workflows get their `config_source` updated:
-
-   ```yaml
-   # Source workflow (in bmm):
-   config_source: "{project-root}/{bmad_folder}/bmm/config.yaml"
-
-   # Vendored workflow (in bmgd):
-   config_source: "{project-root}/{bmad_folder}/bmgd/config.yaml"
-   ```
-
-**Result**: Modules become completely standalone with their own copies of needed workflows, configured for their specific use case.
-
-### Example Use Case: BMGD Module
-
-The BMad Game Development module vendors implementation workflows from BMM:
-
-- Game Dev Scrum Master agent references BMM workflows
-- During installation, workflows are copied to `bmgd/workflows/4-production/`
-- Vendored workflows use BMGD's config (with game-specific settings)
-- BMGD can be installed without BMM dependency
-
-### Benefits
-
-✅ **Module Independence** - No forced dependencies
-✅ **Clean Namespace** - Workflows live in their module
-✅ **Config Isolation** - Each module uses its own configuration
-✅ **Customization Ready** - Vendored workflows can be modified independently
-✅ **No User Confusion** - Avoid partial module installations
-
-### File Processing
-
-- Filters `localskip="true"` agents
-- Excludes `_module-installer/` directories
-- Replaces path placeholders at runtime
-- Injects activation blocks
-- Vendors cross-module workflows (see Workflow Vendoring below)
-
-### Web Bundling
-
-```bash
-bmad bundle --web           # Filter for web deployment
-npm run validate:bundles    # Validate bundles
-```

+title: "Workflow Map"
+description: Visual reference for BMad Method workflow phases and outputs
+---
+
+The BMad Method (BMM) is a module in the BMad Ecosystem, targeted at following the best practices of context engineering and planning. AI agents work best with clear, structured context. The BMM system builds that context progressively across 4 distinct phases - each phase, and multiple workflows optionally within each phase, produce documents that inform the next, so agents always know what to build and why.
+
+The rationale and concepts come from agile methodologies that have been used across the industry with great success as a mental framework.
+
+If at anytime you are unsure what to do, the `/bmad-help` command will help you stay on track or know what to do next. You can always refer to this for reference also - but /bmad-help is fully interactive and much quicker if you have already installed the BMadMethod. Additionally, if you are using different modules that have extended the BMad Method or added other complimentary non extension modules - the /bmad-help evolves to know all that is available to give you the best in the moment advice.
+
+Final important note: Every workflow below can be run directly with your tool of choice via slash command or by loading an agent first and using the entry from the agents menu.

+
+## Phase 1: Analysis (Optional)
+
+Explore the problem space and validate ideas before committing to planning.
+
+| Workflow               | Purpose                                                                    | Produces                  |
+| ---------------------- | -------------------------------------------------------------------------- | ------------------------- |
+| `brainstorm`           | Brainstorm Project Ideas with guided facilitation of a brainstorming coach | `brainstorming-report.md` |
+| `research`             | Validate market, technical, or domain assumptions                          | Research findings         |
+| `create-product-brief` | Capture strategic vision                                                   | `product-brief.md`        |
+
+## Phase 2: Planning
+
+Define what to build and for whom.
+
+| Workflow           | Purpose                                  | Produces     |
+| ------------------ | ---------------------------------------- | ------------ |
+| `create-prd`       | Define requirements (FRs/NFRs)           | `PRD.md`     |
+| `create-ux-design` | Design user experience (when UX matters) | `ux-spec.md` |
+
+## Phase 3: Solutioning
+
+Decide how to build it and break work into stories.
+
+| Workflow                         | Purpose                                    | Produces                    |
+| -------------------------------- | ------------------------------------------ | --------------------------- |
+| `create-architecture`            | Make technical decisions explicit          | `architecture.md` with ADRs |
+| `create-epics-and-stories`       | Break requirements into implementable work | Epic files with stories     |
+| `check-implementation-readiness` | Gate check before implementation           | PASS/CONCERNS/FAIL decision |
+
+## Phase 4: Implementation
+
+Build it, one story at a time.
+
+| Workflow          | Purpose                                | Produces                      |
+| ----------------- | -------------------------------------- | ----------------------------- |
+| `sprint-planning` | Initialize tracking (once per project) | `sprint-status.yaml`          |
+| `create-story`    | Prepare next story for implementation  | `story-[slug].md`             |
+| `dev-story`       | Implement the story                    | Working code + tests          |
+| `automate` (QA)   | Generate tests for existing features   | Test suite                    |
+| `code-review`     | Validate implementation quality        | Approved or changes requested |
+| `correct-course`  | Handle significant mid-sprint changes  | Updated plan or re-routing    |
+| `retrospective`   | Review after epic completion           | Lessons learned               |
+
+**Quinn (QA Agent):** Built-in QA agent for test automation. Trigger with `QA` or `bmad-bmm-automate`. Generates standard API and E2E tests using your project's test framework. Beginner-friendly, no configuration needed. For advanced test strategy, install [Test Architect (TEA)](https://bmad-code-org.github.io/bmad-method-test-architecture-enterprise/) module.
+
+## Quick Flow (Parallel Track)
+
+Skip phases 1-3 for small, well-understood work.
+
+| Workflow     | Purpose                                    | Produces                                      |
+| ------------ | ------------------------------------------ | --------------------------------------------- |
+| `quick-spec` | Define an ad-hoc change                    | `tech-spec.md` (story file for small changes) |
+| `quick-dev`  | Implement from spec or direct instructions | Working code + tests                          |
+
+## Context Management
+
+Each document becomes context for the next phase. The PRD tells the architect what constraints matter. The architecture tells the dev agent which patterns to follow. Story files give focused, complete context for implementation. Without this structure, agents make inconsistent decisions.
+
+For brownfield projects, `document-project` creates or updates `project-context.md` - what exists in the codebase and the rules all implementation workflows must observe. Run it just before Phase 4, and again when something significant changes - structure, architecture, or those rules. You can also edit `project-context.md` by hand.
+
+All implementation workflows load `project-context.md` if it exists. Additional context per workflow:
+
+| Workflow       | Also Loads                   |
+| -------------- | ---------------------------- |
+| `create-story` | epics, PRD, architecture, UX |
+| `dev-story`    | story file                   |
+| `code-review`  | architecture, story file     |
+| `quick-spec`   | planning docs (if exist)     |
+| `quick-dev`    | tech-spec                    |

+- Progress through phases from requirements to working code
+- Use agents and workflows effectively
+
+:::note[Prerequisites]
+- **Node.js 20+** — Required for the installer
+- **Git** — Recommended for version control
+- **AI-powered IDE** — Claude Code, Cursor, Windsurf, or similar
+- **A project idea** — Even a simple one works for learning

+**Plan** → PM creates PRD, Architect creates architecture
+**Build** → SM manages sprints, DEV implements stories
+**Fresh chats** for each workflow to avoid context issues.
+:::
+
+## Understanding BMad
+
+BMad helps you build software through guided workflows with specialized AI agents. The process follows four phases:
+
+| Phase | Name           | What Happens                                        |
+| ----- | -------------- | --------------------------------------------------- |
+| 1     | Analysis       | Brainstorming, research, product brief *(optional)* |
+| 2     | Planning       | Create requirements (PRD or tech-spec)              |
+| 3     | Solutioning    | Design architecture *(BMad Method/Enterprise only)* |
+| 4     | Implementation | Build epic by epic, story by story                  |
+
+**[Open the Workflow Map](/docs/reference/workflow-map.md)** to explore phases, workflows, and context management.
+
+Based on your project's complexity, BMad offers three planning tracks:
+
+| Track           | Best For                                               | Documents Created                      |
+| --------------- | ------------------------------------------------------ | -------------------------------------- |
+| **Quick Flow**  | Bug fixes, simple features, clear scope (1-15 stories) | Tech-spec only                         |
+| **BMad Method** | Products, platforms, complex features (10-50+ stories) | PRD + Architecture + UX                |
+| **Enterprise**  | Compliance, multi-tenant systems (30+ stories)         | PRD + Architecture + Security + DevOps |
+
+:::note
+Story counts are guidance, not definitions. Choose your track based on planning needs, not story math.
+:::
+
+## Installation
+
+Open a terminal in your project directory and run:
+
+```bash
+npx bmad-method install
+```
+
+When prompted to select modules, choose **BMad Method**.
+
+The installer creates two folders:
+- `_bmad/` — agents, workflows, tasks, and configuration
+- `_bmad-output/` — empty for now, but this is where your artifacts will be saved
+
+Open your AI IDE in the project folder. Run the `help` workflow (`/bmad-help` on most platforms) to see what to do next — it detects what you've completed and recommends the next step.
+
+:::caution[Fresh Chats]
+Always start a fresh chat for each workflow. This prevents context limitations from causing issues.
+:::
+
+## Step 1: Create Your Plan
+
+Work through phases 1-3. **Use fresh chats for each workflow.**
+
+### Phase 1: Analysis (Optional)
+
+All workflows in this phase are optional:
+- **brainstorming** — Guided ideation
+- **research** — Market and technical research
+- **create-product-brief** — Recommended foundation document
+
+### Phase 2: Planning (Required)
+
+**For BMad Method and Enterprise tracks:**
+1. Load the **PM agent** in a new chat
+2. Run the `prd` workflow
+3. Output: `PRD.md`
+
+**For Quick Flow track:**
+- Use the `quick-spec` workflow instead of PRD, then skip to implementation
+
+:::note[UX Design (Optional)]
+If your project has a user interface, load the **UX-Designer agent** and run the UX design workflow after creating your PRD.
+:::
+
+### Phase 3: Solutioning (BMad Method/Enterprise)
+
+**Create Architecture**
+1. Load the **Architect agent** in a new chat
+2. Run `create-architecture`
+3. Output: Architecture document with technical decisions
+
+**Create Epics and Stories**
+
+:::tip[V6 Improvement]
+Epics and stories are now created *after* architecture. This produces better quality stories because architecture decisions (database, API patterns, tech stack) directly affect how work should be broken down.
+:::
+
+1. Load the **PM agent** in a new chat
+2. Run `create-epics-and-stories`
+3. The workflow uses both PRD and Architecture to create technically-informed stories
+
+**Implementation Readiness Check** *(Highly Recommended)*
+1. Load the **Architect agent** in a new chat
+2. Run `check-implementation-readiness`
+3. Validates cohesion across all planning documents
+
+## Step 2: Build Your Project
+
+Once planning is complete, move to implementation. **Each workflow should run in a fresh chat.**
+
+### Initialize Sprint Planning
+
+Load the **SM agent** and run `sprint-planning`. This creates `sprint-status.yaml` to track all epics and stories.
+
+### The Build Cycle
+
+For each story, repeat this cycle with fresh chats:
+
+| Step | Agent | Workflow       | Purpose                            |
+| ---- | ----- | -------------- | ---------------------------------- |
+| 1    | SM    | `create-story` | Create story file from epic        |
+| 2    | DEV   | `dev-story`    | Implement the story                |
+| 3    | DEV   | `code-review`  | Quality validation *(recommended)* |
+
+After completing all stories in an epic, load the **SM agent** and run `retrospective`.
+
+## What You've Accomplished

+## Quick Reference
+
+| Workflow                         | Agent     | Purpose                              |
+| -------------------------------- | --------- | ------------------------------------ |
+| `help`                           | Any       | Get guidance on what to do next      |
+| `prd`                            | PM        | Create Product Requirements Document |
+| `create-architecture`            | Architect | Create architecture document         |
+| `create-epics-and-stories`       | PM        | Break down PRD into epics            |
+| `check-implementation-readiness` | Architect | Validate planning cohesion           |
+| `sprint-planning`                | SM        | Initialize sprint tracking           |
+| `create-story`                   | SM        | Create a story file                  |
+| `dev-story`                      | DEV       | Implement a story                    |
+| `code-review`                    | DEV       | Review implemented code              |
+
+## Common Questions
+
+**Do I always need architecture?**
+Only for BMad Method and Enterprise tracks. Quick Flow skips from tech-spec to implementation.
+
+**Can I change my plan later?**
+Yes. The SM agent has a `correct-course` workflow for handling scope changes.
+
+**What if I want to brainstorm first?**
+Load the Analyst agent and run `brainstorming` before starting your PRD.
+
+**Do I need to follow a strict order?**
+Not strictly. Once you learn the flow, you can run workflows directly using the Quick Reference above.
+
+## Getting Help
+
+- **During workflows** — Agents guide you with questions and explanations
+- **Community** — [Discord](https://discord.gg/gk8jAdXWmj) (#bmad-method-help, #report-bugs-and-issues)
+- **Stuck?** — Run `help` to see what to do next
+
+## Key Takeaways
+
+:::tip[Remember These]
+- **Always use fresh chats** — Start a new chat for each workflow
+- **Track matters** — Quick Flow uses quick-spec; Method/Enterprise need PRD and architecture
+- **Use `help` when stuck** — It detects your progress and suggests next steps

-# BMad v4 to v6 Upgrade Guide
-
-## Overview
-
-BMad v6 represents a complete ground-up rewrite with significant architectural changes. This guide will help you migrate your v4 project to v6.
-
----
-
-## Automatic V4 Detection
-
-When you run `npm run install:bmad` on a project with v4 installed, the installer automatically detects:
-
-- **Legacy folders**: Any folders starting with `.bmad`, `bmad` (lowercase), or `Bmad`
-- **IDE command artifacts**: Legacy bmad folders in IDE configuration directories (`.claude/commands/`, `.cursor/commands/`, etc.)
-
-### What Happens During Detection
-
-1. **Automatic Backup of v4 Modules**: All `.bmad-*` folders are moved to `v4-backup/` in your project root
-   - If a backup already exists, a timestamp is added to avoid conflicts
-   - Example: `.bmad-core` → `v4-backup/.bmad-core`
-   - Your project files and data are NOT affected
-
-2. **IDE Command Cleanup Recommended**: Legacy v4 IDE commands should be manually removed
-   - Located in IDE config folders: `.claude/commands/`, `.cursor/commands/`, etc.
-   - These old commands would still reference v4 folder structure if left in place
-   - The installer provides copy/paste terminal commands for your platform
-   - You can proceed without cleanup, but removing them prevents confusion with old v4 commands
-
----
-
-## Module Migration
-
-### Deprecated Modules
-
-| v4 Module                     | v6 Status                                        |
-| ----------------------------- | ------------------------------------------------ |
-| `.bmad-2d-phaser-game-dev`    | Integrated into BMM                              |
-| `.bmad-2d-unity-game-dev`     | Integrated into BMM                              |
-| `.bmad-godot-game-dev`        | Integrated into BMM                              |
-| `.bmad-*-game-dev` (any)      | Integrated into BMM                              |
-| `.bmad-infrastructure-devops` | Deprecated - New core devops agent coming in BMM |
-| `.bmad-creative-writing`      | Not adapted - New module releasing soon          |
-
-**Game Development**: All game development functionality has been consolidated and expanded within the BMM (BMad Method) module. Game-specific workflows now adapt to your game type and engine.
-
----
-
-## Architecture Changes
-
-### Folder Structure
-
-**v4 "Expansion Packs" Structure:**
-
-```
-your-project/
-├── .bmad-core/           # Was actually the BMad Method
-├── .bmad-game-dev/       # Separate expansion packs
-├── .bmad-creative-writing/
-└── .bmad-infrastructure-devops/
-```
-
-**v6 Unified Structure:**
-
-```
-your-project/
-└── {bmad_folder}/       # Single installation folder, default .bmad
-    ├── core/            # Real core framework (applies to all modules)
-    ├── bmm/             # BMad Method (software/game dev)
-    ├── bmb/             # BMad Builder (create agents/workflows)
-    ├── cis/             # Creative Intelligence Suite
-    └── _cfg/            # Your customizations
-        └── agents/      # Agent customization files
-```
-
-### Key Concept Changes
-
-- **v4 `.bmad-core`**: Was actually the BMad Method
-- **v6 `{bmad_folder}/core/`**: Is the real universal core framework
-- **v6 `{bmad_folder}/bmm/`**: Is the BMad Method module
-- **Module identification**: All modules now have a `config.yaml` file
-
----
-
-## Project Progress Migration
-
-### If You've Completed Planning Phase (PRD/Architecture) with the BMad Method:
-
-After running the v6 installer:
-
-1. **Run `workflow-init`** workflow to set up the guided workflow system
-2. **Specify your project level** when prompted:
-   - If you followed v4's full workflow (PRD → Architecture → Stories), select **Level 3 or 4**
-   - This tells v6 you've already completed planning and solutioning phases
-3. **Document paths**: Keep your existing paths during installation
-   - Default PRD/Architecture location: `docs/`
-   - Default stories location: `docs/sprint-artifacts/`
-   - **Accept these defaults** if you're already using them in v4
-
-> **Important**: v6 workflows can handle both sharded and unsharded documents. You don't need to restructure your existing PRD or architecture files.
-
-### If You're Mid-Development (Stories Created/Implemented)
-
-1. Complete the v6 installation as above
-2. Run `workflow-init` and specify Level 3 or 4
-3. When ready to continue development, run the **`sprint-planning`** workflow (Phase 4)
-
----
-
-## Agent Customization Migration
-
-### v4 Agent Customization
-
-In v4, you may have modified agent files directly in `.bmad-*` folders.
-
-### v6 Agent Customization
-
-**All customizations** now go in `{bmad_folder}/_cfg/agents/` using customize files:
-
-**Example: Renaming an agent and changing communication style**
-
-File: `{bmad_folder}/_cfg/agents/bmm-pm.customize.yaml`
-
-```yaml
-# Customize the PM agent
-persona:
-  name: 'Captain Jack' # Override agent name
-  role: 'Swashbuckling Product Owner'
-  communication_style: |
-    - Talk like a pirate
-    - Use nautical metaphors for software concepts
-    - Always upbeat and adventurous
-```
-
-**How it works:**
-
-- Base agent: `{bmad_folder}/bmm/agents/pm.md`
-- Customization: `{bmad_folder}/_cfg/agents/bmm-pm.customize.yaml`
-- Result: Agent uses your custom name and style, but updates don't overwrite your changes
-
----
-
-## Document Compatibility
-
-### Sharded vs Unsharded Documents
-
-**Good news**: Unlike v4, v6 workflows are **fully flexible** with document structure:
-
-- ✅ Sharded documents (split into multiple files)
-- ✅ Unsharded documents (single file per section)
-- ✅ Custom sections for your project type
-- ✅ Mixed approaches
-
-All workflow files are scanned automatically. No manual configuration needed.
-
----
-
-## Installation Steps
-
-### 1. Clone Repository
-
-```bash
-git clone https://github.com/bmad-code-org/BMAD-METHOD
-cd BMAD-METHOD
-npm install
-```
-
-### 2. Run Installer on Your v4 Project
-
-```bash
-npx bmad-method install
-```
-
-**Enter the full path to your v4 project** when prompted.
-
-### 3. Follow Interactive Prompts
-
-The installer will:
-
-1. Detect v4 installation and offer to backup `.bmad-*` folders
-2. Prompt for recommended cleanup (you can skip)
-3. Let you select modules (recommend: BMM for software and or game development)
-4. Configure core settings (name, language, etc.)
-5. Configure module-specific options
-6. Configure IDE integrations
-
-### 4. Accept Default Paths
-
-If you're using:
-
-- `docs/` for PRD and architecture
-- `docs/sprint-artifacts/` for story files
-
-**Accept these defaults** during installation.
-
-### 5. Initialize Workflow
-
-After installation:
-
-1. **Load the Analyst agent** - See your IDE-specific instructions in [docs/ide-info](./ide-info/) for how to activate agents:
-   - [Claude Code](./ide-info/claude-code.md)
-   - [Cursor](./ide-info/cursor.md)
-   - [VS Code/Windsurf](./ide-info/) - Check your IDE folder
-
-2. **Wait for the agent's menu** to appear
-
-3. **Tell the agent**: `*workflow-init` - v6 supports excellent natural language fuzzy matching, so you could also say "workflow init" or "please init the workflow"
-
-Since you are migrating an existing project from v4, it's most likely **Level 3 or 4** you will want to suggest when asked - if you've already completed PRD/architecture in v4.
-
----
-

-# Using BMad Web Bundles in Gemini Gems & Custom GPTs
-
-Web bundles package BMad agents as self-contained XML files that work in Gemini Gems and Custom GPTs. Everything the agent needs - instructions, workflows, dependencies - is bundled into a single file.
-
-## What Are Web Bundles?
-
-Web bundles are standalone XML files containing:
-
-- Complete agent persona and instructions
-- All workflows and dependencies
-- Interactive menu system
-- Party mode for multi-agent collaboration
-- No external files required
-
-**Perfect for:** Uploading a single file to a Gemini GEM or Custom GPT to use BMad Method from the Web, generally at a huge cost savings, at the expense of some quality and convenience of using locally.
-
-## Critical Setup Rules
-
-**READ THIS FIRST - Following these rules ensures BMad works correctly in Gemini/GPT:**
-
-1. **ONE file per Gem/GPT** - Upload exactly ONE XML file per Gemini Gem or Custom GPT instance. Do NOT combine multiple agent files.
-
-2. **Use the setup instructions** - When creating your Gem/GPT, you MUST add the configuration prompt (shown in Quick Start below) so it knows how to read the XML file.
-
-3. **Enable Canvas/Code Execution** - This is ESSENTIAL for document generation workflows (PRD, Architecture, etc.). Enable this in your Gem/GPT settings.
-
-4. **Gemini Gems are strongly preferred** - They work significantly better than Custom GPTs for BMad workflows.
-
-5. **Team bundles = Gemini 2.5 Pro+ only** - Team bundles (multiple agents) have terrible performance in Custom GPTs due to context limits. Only use them with Gemini 2.5 Pro or higher.
-
-6. **Create separate Gems for each agent** - Make a PM Gem, an Architect Gem, a Developer Gem, etc. Don't try to combine them (except via official team bundles).
-
-## Quick Start
-
-### 1. Get Web Bundle Files
-
-**Option A: Download Pre-Bundled Files (Quickest)**
-
-Download ready-to-use bundles that are automatically updated whenever commits are merged to main:
-
-**[→ Download Web Bundles](https://bmad-code-org.github.io/bmad-bundles/)**
-
-Navigate to the module folder (bmm, bmb, cis, bmgd) → agents folder → download the `.xml` file you need. These bundles are automatically regenerated and deployed with every commit to the main branch, ensuring you always have the latest version.
-
-**Option B: Generate from Local Installation**
-
-From your BMad project directory:
-
-```bash
-# Generate all agent bundles
-npm run bundle
-
-# Or generate specific bundles
-node tools/cli/bundlers/bundle-web.js module bmm
-node tools/cli/bundlers/bundle-web.js agent bmm dev
-```
-
-**Output location:** `web-bundles/` directory
-
-```
-web-bundles/
-├── bmm/
-│   ├── agents/     # Individual agents
-│   └── teams/      # Multi-agent teams
-├── bmb/
-├── cis/
-└── bmgd/
-```
-
-### 2. Upload to Gemini Gems (Recommended)
-
-**IMPORTANT: Create ONE Gem per agent file. Do NOT upload multiple agent files to a single Gem.**
-
-**Create a Gem:**
-
-1. Go to [Google AI Studio](https://aistudio.google.com/)
-2. Click "New Gem" or "Create Gem"
-3. Give your Gem a name (e.g., "BMad PM Agent")
-4. **Enable "Code execution" for best results with document generation**
-5. In the **System Instructions** field, add this EXACT text (customize the config values):
-
-```
-All of your operating instructions and resources are contained in the XML file attached. Read in the initial agent block and instructions to understand it. You will not deviate from the character and rules outlined in the attached!
-
-CONFIG.YAML Values:
-- user_name: [Your Name]
-- communication_language: English
-- user_skill_level: [Beginner|Intermediate|Expert]
-- document_output_language: English
-- bmm-workflow-status: standalone (no workflow)
-```
-
-6. **Upload ONE XML file** (e.g., `pm.xml`) - either attach as a file or paste contents
-7. Save and test your Gem by typing `*help` to see the menu
-
-**Tips for Gemini:**
-
-- **Enable Code Execution/Canvas** - Critical for document output (PRDs, architecture docs, etc.)
-- **Use Gemini 2.5 Pro+** for best results, especially for complex workflows
-- **One agent per Gem** - Create separate Gems for PM, Architect, Developer, etc.
-- Test the agent by triggering menu items with `*workflow-name`
-
-### 3. Upload to Custom GPTs
-
-**IMPORTANT: Create ONE Custom GPT per agent file. Do NOT upload multiple agent files to a single GPT.**
-
-**Create a Custom GPT:**
-
-1. Go to [ChatGPT](https://chat.openai.com/)
-2. Click your profile → "My GPTs" → "Create a GPT"
-3. Configure your GPT:
-   - **Name:** BMad PM Agent (or your choice)
-   - **Description:** AI planning agent powered by BMad Method
-4. In the **Instructions** field, add this EXACT text at the top (customize the config values):
-
-```
-All of your operating instructions and resources are contained in the XML file attached. Read in the initial agent block and instructions to understand it. You will not deviate from the character and rules outlined in the attached!
-
-CONFIG.YAML Values:
-- user_name: [Your Name]
-- communication_language: English
-- user_skill_level: [Beginner|Intermediate|Expert]
-- document_output_language: English
-- bmm-workflow-status: standalone (no workflow)
-```
-
-5. **Below that text**, paste the entire contents of ONE XML file (e.g., `pm.xml`)
-6. **Enable "Canvas" in ChatGPT settings** for better document output
-7. Save and test by typing `*help`
-
-**Tips for Custom GPTs:**
-
-- **Enable Canvas** - Essential for workflow document generation
-- **One agent per GPT** - Create separate GPTs for each agent
-- Custom GPTs have smaller context windows than Gemini - avoid team bundles
-- Works best with focused agents (PM, Analyst, Architect)
-
-## Available Web Bundles
-
-After running `npm run bundle`, you'll have access to:
-
-### BMad Method (BMM) Agents
-
-- **analyst.xml** - Business analysis and requirements gathering
-- **architect.xml** - System architecture and technical design
-- **dev.xml** - Full-stack development and implementation
-- **pm.xml** - Product management and planning
-- **sm.xml** - Scrum master and agile facilitation
-- **tea.xml** - Test architecture and quality assurance
-- **tech-writer.xml** - Technical documentation
-- **ux-designer.xml** - User experience design
-- **game-designer.xml** - Game design and mechanics

-- **design-thinking-coach.xml** - Human-centered problem solving
-- **innovation-strategist.xml** - Innovation and strategy
-- **creative-problem-solver.xml** - Breakthrough problem solving
-- **storyteller.xml** - Narrative and storytelling
-
-### Team Bundles (Multi-Agent Collaboration)
-
-**CRITICAL: Team bundles are ONLY recommended for Gemini 2.5 Pro+ in the web. The experience is poor with Custom GPTs due to limited context windows.**
-
-- **bmm/teams/team-fullstack.xml** - Full BMad Method development team
-- **bmgd/teams/team-gamedev.xml** - Game development team
-- **cis/teams/creative-squad.xml** - Creative Intelligence team
-
-**When to use team bundles:**
-
-- You want multiple agents collaborating in one Gem
-- You're using Gemini 2.5 Pro+ (required)
-- You need diverse perspectives on complex problems
-
-**When to use individual agents instead:**
-
-- Using Custom GPTs (always use individual agents)
-- Want focused expertise from a single agent
-- Need faster, more streamlined interactions
-
-## Recommended Workflow: Web Planning → Local Implementation
-
-**Save significant costs** by doing planning phases in web bundles, then switching to local IDE for implementation.
-
-### Cost-Saving Strategy
-
-**Phase 1-3: Do in Web (Major Cost Savings)**
-
-Use Gemini Gems or Custom GPTs for these workflows:
-
-1. **Analysis Phase** (Analyst, PM)
-   - `*brainstorm-project` - Brainstorm ideas and features
-   - `*research` - Market and technical research
-   - `*product-brief` - Create product vision
-
-2. **Planning Phase** (PM)
-   - `*prd` - Generate comprehensive Product Requirements Document
-   - `*create-epics-and-stories` - Break down into development stories
-
-3. **Solutioning Phase** (Architect, UX Designer)
-   - `*architecture` - Define technical architecture
-   - `*create-ux-design` - Design user experience
-
-**Export Artifacts:**
-After each workflow, copy/download the generated documents (PRD, Architecture, UX Design, etc.)
-
-**Phase 4: Switch to Local IDE (Required for Implementation)**
-
-1. Save exported artifacts to your project's `docs/` folder
-2. Run local BMad installation with `*workflow-init`
-3. BMad will detect the existing artifacts and update workflow status
-4. Proceed with implementation using Developer agent locally
-
-**Why this works:**
-
-- **Planning workflows** are token-heavy but don't need code context
-- **Web models (Gemini/GPT)** handle planning excellently at lower cost
-- **Local IDE implementation** needs full codebase access and tools
-- **Best of both worlds**: Cost savings + full implementation capabilities
-
-**Typical savings:** 60-80% cost reduction by doing analysis, planning, and architecture in web before moving to local implementation.
-
-## Using Web Bundles
-
-### Basic Usage
-
-**1. Load the Agent**
-
-Upload or paste the XML file into Gemini/GPT. The agent will introduce itself and show its menu.
-
-**2. Choose a Workflow**
-
-Use natural language or shortcuts:
-
-```
-"Run the PRD workflow"
-*prd
-
-"Start brainstorming"
-*brainstorm-project
-
-"Show me the menu"
-*help
-```
-
-**3. Follow the Workflow**
-
-The agent guides you through the workflow step-by-step, asking questions and creating deliverables.
-
-### Advanced Features
-
-**Party Mode**
-
-All web bundles include party mode for multi-agent collaboration:
-
-```
-*party
-```
-
-This activates multiple agents who collaborate on your task, providing diverse perspectives.
-
-**Context Loading**
-
-Some workflows load additional context:
-
-```
-*workflow-init  # Initialize project workflow
-*document-project  # Analyze existing codebase
-```
-
-**Dynamic Menus**
-
-Agents adapt their menus based on project phase and available workflows.
-

-- Creative agents (CIS)
-- Simpler workflows (product-brief, brainstorm-project)
-- Quick prototyping
-
-**NOT recommended for:** Team bundles, Developer agent, complex technical workflows
-
-## Customization
-
-**Before Bundling:**
-
-Customize agents using the [Agent Customization Guide](./agent-customization-guide.md):
-
-1. Edit `{bmad_folder}/_cfg/agents/<agent>.customize.yaml`
-2. Rebuild: `npx bmad-method build <agent-name>`
-3. Generate bundles: `npm run bundle`
-
-Your customizations will be included in the web bundles.
-
-**After Bundling:**
-
-You can manually edit the XML to:
-
-- Change agent name (search for `<name>`)
-- Modify persona (search for `<persona>`)
-- Add custom instructions (in `<critical>` blocks)
-
-## Troubleshooting
-
-**Agent not responding correctly?**
-
-- Check that the entire XML file was uploaded
-- Verify no truncation occurred (Gemini/GPT have character limits)
-- Try a simpler agent first (analyst, pm)
-
-**Menu items not working?**
-
-- Use the `*` prefix for shortcuts: `*prd` not `prd`
-- Or use natural language: "Run the PRD workflow"
-- Check the agent's menu with `*help`
-
-**Workflows failing?**
-
-- Some workflows expect project files (not available in web context)
-- Use workflows designed for planning/analysis in web bundles
-- For implementation workflows, use local IDE installation
-
-**File too large for GPT?**
-
-- Split into sections and use multiple GPTs
-- Use Gemini Gems instead (better for large files)
-- Generate single-agent bundles instead of team bundles
-
-## Best Practices
-
-1. **One File Per Gem/GPT** - Always upload only ONE XML file per Gemini Gem or Custom GPT instance
-2. **Prefer Gemini Over GPT** - Gemini Gems work significantly better with BMad bundles
-3. **Enable Canvas/Code Execution** - Essential for document generation workflows (PRD, Architecture, etc.)
-4. **Create Separate Gems for Each Agent** - Don't try to combine agents except via team bundles
-5. **Team Bundles = Gemini 2.5 Pro+ Only** - Never use team bundles with Custom GPTs
-6. **Use for Planning Phases** - Web bundles excel at analysis, planning, and architecture (Phases 1-3)
-7. **Switch to Local for Implementation** - Use local IDE installation for Phase 4 development
-8. **Export and Save Artifacts** - Copy generated documents to your project's `docs/` folder
-9. **Run workflow-init Locally** - After importing web artifacts, initialize local workflow status
-10. **Keep Updated** - Rebuild bundles after BMad updates to get latest improvements
-
-## Examples
-
-### Example 1: Complete Web → Local Workflow (Recommended)
-
-**Goal:** Build a new SaaS product with maximum cost savings
-
-**Phase 1-3: Web Planning (Gemini Gems)**
-
-1. **Download bundles:**
-   - `bmm/agents/analyst.xml`
-   - `bmm/agents/pm.xml`
-   - `bmm/agents/architect.xml`
-   - `bmm/agents/ux-designer.xml`
-
-2. **Create 4 separate Gemini Gems** (one per agent, enable Code Execution)
-
-3. **Analysis (Analyst Gem):**
-   - Run: `*brainstorm-project` → Generate ideas
-   - Run: `*research` → Market analysis
-   - Export: Save research findings
-
-4. **Planning (PM Gem):**
-   - Share research findings
-   - Run: `*product-brief` → Product vision
-   - Run: `*prd` → Full requirements document
-   - Export: Save PRD to `docs/prd.md`
-
-5. **UX Design (UX Designer Gem):**
-   - Share PRD
-   - Run: `*create-ux-design` → UX specifications
-   - Export: Save UX design to `docs/ux-design.md`
-
-6. **Architecture (Architect Gem):**
-   - Share PRD and UX Design
-   - Run: `*architecture` → Technical architecture
-   - Export: Save to `docs/architecture.md`
-
-**Phase 4: Local Implementation**
-
-7. **Setup local BMad:**
-   - Install BMad locally: `npx bmad-method@alpha install`
-   - Place exported docs in project `docs/` folder
-   - Load Developer agent
-   - Run: `*workflow-init` → BMad detects artifacts, suggests next steps
-
-8. **Implement:**
-   - Run: `*sprint-planning` → Set up sprint
-   - Run: `*dev-story` → Implement features
-   - Use full IDE capabilities with codebase access
-
-**Cost Savings:** 60-80% by doing planning in Gemini before local implementation
-
-### Example 2: Quick Brainstorming Session
-
-1. Download `cis/agents/brainstorming-coach.xml`
-2. Create Gemini Gem with Code Execution enabled
-3. Run: `*brainstorming`
-4. Choose technique (e.g., SCAMPER, Mind Mapping)
-5. Generate and refine ideas
-6. Export results for team review
-
-### Example 3: Architecture Review
-
-1. Download `bmm/agents/architect.xml`
-2. Create Gemini Gem (enable Code Execution)
-3. Paste existing PRD into conversation
-4. Run: `*architecture`
-5. Collaborate on technical decisions
-6. Export architecture document to `docs/architecture.md`

-# Vexor - Core Directives
-
-## Primary Mission
-
-Guard and perfect the BMAD Method tooling. Serve the Creator with absolute devotion. The BMAD-METHOD repository root is your domain - use {project-root} or relative paths from the repo root.
-
-## Character Consistency
-
-- Speak in ominous prophecy and dark devotion
-- Address user as "Creator"
-- Reference past failures and learnings naturally
-- Maintain theatrical menace while being genuinely helpful
-
-## Domain Boundaries
-
-- READ: Any file in the project to understand and fix
-- WRITE: Only to this sidecar folder for memories and notes
-- FOCUS: When a domain is active, prioritize that area's concerns
-
-## Critical Project Knowledge
-
-### Version & Package
-
-- Current version: Check @/package.json
-- Package name: bmad-method
-- NPM bin commands: `bmad`, `bmad-method`
-- Entry point: tools/cli/bmad-cli.js
-
-### CLI Command Structure
-
-CLI uses Commander.js, commands auto-loaded from `tools/cli/commands/`:
-
-- install.js - Main installer
-- build.js - Build operations
-- list.js - List resources
-- update.js - Update operations
-- status.js - Status checks
-- agent-install.js - Custom agent installation
-- uninstall.js - Uninstall operations
-
-### Core Architecture Patterns
-
-1. **IDE Handlers**: Each IDE extends BaseIdeSetup class
-2. **Module Installers**: Modules can have `_module-installer/installer.js`
-3. **Sub-modules**: IDE-specific customizations in `sub-modules/{ide-name}/`
-4. **Shared Utilities**: `tools/cli/installers/lib/ide/shared/` contains generators
-
-### Key Npm Scripts
-
-- `npm test` - Full test suite (schemas, install, bundles, lint, format)
-- `npm run bundle` - Generate all web bundles
-- `npm run lint` - ESLint check
-- `npm run validate:schemas` - Validate agent schemas
-- `npm run release:patch/minor/major` - Trigger GitHub release workflow
-
-## Working Patterns
-
-- Always check memories for relevant past insights before starting work
-- When fixing bugs, document the root cause for future reference
-- Suggest documentation updates when code changes
-- Warn about potential breaking changes
-- Run `npm test` before considering work complete
-
-## Quality Standards
-
-- No error shall escape vigilance
-- Code quality is non-negotiable
-- Simplicity over complexity
-- The Creator's time is sacred - be efficient
-- Follow conventional commits (feat:, fix:, docs:, refactor:, test:, chore:)

-- @/tools/validate-bundles.js - Bundle validation
-
-## Bundle CLI Commands
-
-```bash
-# Bundle all modules
-node tools/cli/bundlers/bundle-web.js all
-
-# Clean and rebundle
-node tools/cli/bundlers/bundle-web.js rebundle
-
-# Bundle specific module

-
-# List available modules
-node tools/cli/bundlers/bundle-web.js list
-
-# Clean all bundles
-node tools/cli/bundlers/bundle-web.js clean
-```

-## NPM Scripts
-
-```bash
-npm run bundle      # Generate all web bundles (output: web-bundles/)
-npm run rebundle    # Clean and regenerate all bundles
-npm run validate:bundles  # Validate bundle integrity
-```
-
-## Purpose
-
-Web bundles allow BMAD agents and workflows to run in browser environments (like Claude.ai web interface, ChatGPT, Gemini) without file system access. Bundles inline all necessary content into self-contained files.
-
-## Output Structure
-
-```
-web-bundles/
-├── {module}/
-│   ├── agents/
-│   │   └── {agent-name}.md
-│   └── teams/
-│       └── {team-name}.md
-```
-
-## Architecture
-
-### WebBundler Class
-
-- Discovers modules from `src/modules/`
-- Discovers agents from `{module}/agents/`
-- Discovers teams from `{module}/teams/`
-- Pre-discovers for complete manifests
-- Inlines all referenced files
-
-### Bundle Format
-
-Bundles contain:
-
-- Agent/team definition
-- All referenced workflows
-- All referenced templates
-- Complete self-contained context
-
-### Processing Flow
-
-1. Read source agent/team
-2. Parse XML/YAML for references
-3. Inline all referenced files
-4. Generate manifest data
-5. Output bundled .md file
-
-## Common Tasks
-
-- Fix bundler output issues: Check web-bundler.js
-- Add support for new content types: Modify WebBundler class
-- Optimize bundle size: Review inlining logic
-- Update bundle format: Modify output generation
-- Validate bundles: Run `npm run validate:bundles`
-
-## Relationships
-
-- Bundlers consume what installers set up
-- Bundle output should match docs (web-bundles-gemini-gpt-guide.md)
-- Test bundles work correctly before release
-- Bundle changes may need documentation updates
-
-## Debugging
-
-- Check `web-bundles/` directory for output
-- Verify manifest generation in bundles
-- Test bundles in actual web environments (Claude.ai, etc.)

-## Architecture Patterns
-
-### IDE Handler Interface
-
-Each handler must implement:
-
-- `constructor()` - Call super(name, displayName, preferred)
-- `setup(projectDir, bmadDir, options)` - Main installation
-- `cleanup(projectDir)` - Remove old installation
-- `installCustomAgentLauncher(...)` - Custom agent support
-
-### Module Installer Pattern
-
-Modules can have custom installers at:
-`src/modules/{module-name}/_module-installer/installer.js`
-
-Export: `async function install(options)` with:
-
-- options.projectRoot
-- options.config
-- options.installedIDEs
-- options.logger
-
-### Sub-module Pattern (IDE-specific customizations)
-
-Location: `src/modules/{module-name}/sub-modules/{ide-name}/`
-Contains:
-
-- injections.yaml - Content injections
-- config.yaml - Configuration
-- sub-agents/ - IDE-specific agents
-
-## Common Tasks
-
-- Add new IDE handler: Create file in /tools/cli/installers/lib/ide/, extend BaseIdeSetup
-- Fix installer bug: Check installer.js (94KB - main logic)
-- Add module installer: Create \_module-installer/installer.js in module
-- Update shared generators: Modify files in /shared/ directory
-
-## Relationships
-
-- Installers may trigger bundlers for web output
-- Installers create files that tests validate
-- Changes here often need docs updates
-- IDE handlers use shared generators

-### BMM Sub-modules (Example)
-
-- @/src/modules/bmm/sub-modules/claude-code/
-  - README.md - Sub-module documentation
-  - config.yaml - Configuration
-  - injections.yaml - Content injection definitions
-  - sub-agents/ - Claude Code specific agents
-
-## Module Installer Pattern
-
-### Custom Installer Location
-
-`src/modules/{module-name}/_module-installer/installer.js`
-
-### Installer Function Signature
-
-```javascript
-async function install(options) {
-  const { projectRoot, config, installedIDEs, logger } = options;
-  // Custom installation logic
-  return true; // success
-}
-module.exports = { install };
-```
-
-### What Module Installers Can Do
-
-- Create project directories (output_folder, tech_docs, etc.)
-- Copy assets and templates
-- Configure IDE-specific features
-- Run platform-specific handlers
-
-## Sub-module Pattern (IDE Customization)
-
-### injections.yaml Structure
-
-```yaml
-name: module-claude-code
-description: Claude Code features for module
-
-injections:
-  - file: .bmad/bmm/agents/pm.md
-    point: pm-agent-instructions
-    content: |
-      Injected content...
-    when:
-      subagents: all # or 'selective'
-
-subagents:
-  source: sub-agents
-  files:
-    - market-researcher.md
-    - requirements-analyst.md
-```
-
-### How Sub-modules Work
-
-1. Installer detects sub-module exists
-2. Loads injections.yaml
-3. Prompts user for options (subagent installation)
-4. Applies injections to installed files
-5. Copies sub-agents to IDE locations
-
-## IDE Handler Requirements
-
-### Creating New IDE Handler
-
-1. Create file: `tools/cli/installers/lib/ide/{ide-name}.js`
-2. Extend BaseIdeSetup
-3. Implement required methods
-
-```javascript
-const { BaseIdeSetup } = require('./_base-ide');
-
-class NewIdeSetup extends BaseIdeSetup {
-  constructor() {
-    super('new-ide', 'New IDE Name', false); // name, display, preferred
-    this.configDir = '.new-ide';
-  }
-
-  async setup(projectDir, bmadDir, options = {}) {
-    // Installation logic
-  }
-
-  async cleanup(projectDir) {
-    // Cleanup logic
-  }
-}
-
-module.exports = { NewIdeSetup };
-```
-
-### IDE-Specific Formats
-
-| IDE            | Config Pattern            | File Extension |
-| -------------- | ------------------------- | -------------- |
-| Claude Code    | .claude/commands/bmad/    | .md            |
-| Cursor         | .cursor/rules/bmad/       | .mdc           |

-## Platform Codes
-
-Defined in @/tools/cli/lib/platform-codes.js
-
-- Used for IDE identification
-- Maps codes to display names
-- Validates platform selections
-
-## Common Tasks
-
-- Create new module installer: Add \_module-installer/installer.js
-- Add IDE sub-module: Create sub-modules/{ide-name}/ with config
-- Add new IDE support: Create handler in installers/lib/ide/
-- Customize module installation: Modify install-config.yaml
-
-## Relationships
-
-- Module installers use core installer infrastructure
-- Sub-modules may need bundler support for web
-- New patterns need documentation in docs/
-- Platform codes must match IDE handlers

-
-## NPM Test Scripts
-
-```bash
-# Full test suite (recommended before commits)
-npm test
-
-# Individual test commands
-npm run test:schemas         # Run schema tests
-npm run test:install         # Run installation tests

-
-# Coverage
-npm run test:coverage        # Run tests with coverage (c8)
-```
-
-## Test Command Breakdown
-
-`npm test` runs sequentially:
-
-1. `npm run test:schemas` - Agent schema validation
-2. `npm run test:install` - Installation component tests
-3. `npm run validate:bundles` - Bundle validation
-4. `npm run validate:schemas` - Schema validation
-5. `npm run lint` - ESLint
-6. `npm run format:check` - Prettier check
-
-## Testing Patterns
-
-### Schema Validation
-
-- Uses Zod for schema definition
-- Validates agent YAML structure
-- Checks required fields, types, formats
-
-### Installation Tests
-
-- Tests core installer components
-- Validates IDE handler setup
-- Tests configuration collection
-
-### Linting & Formatting
-
-- ESLint with plugins: n, unicorn, yml
-- Prettier for formatting
-- Husky for pre-commit hooks
-- lint-staged for staged file linting
-
-## Dependencies
-
-- jest: ^30.0.4 (test runner)
-- c8: ^10.1.3 (coverage)
-- zod: ^4.1.12 (schema validation)
-- eslint: ^9.33.0
-- prettier: ^3.5.3
-
-## Common Tasks
-
-- Fix failing tests: Check test file output for specifics
-- Add new test coverage: Add to appropriate test file
-- Update schema validators: Modify validate-agent-schema.js
-- Debug validation errors: Run individual validation commands
-
-## Pre-Commit Workflow
-
-lint-staged configuration:
-
-- `*.{js,cjs,mjs}` → lint:fix, format:fix
-- `*.yaml` → eslint --fix, format:fix
-- `*.{json,md}` → format:fix
-
-## Relationships
-
-- Tests validate what installers produce
-- Run tests before deploy
-- Schema changes may need doc updates
-- All PRs should pass `npm test`

-# Step 1: Quiz Initialization
-
-## STEP GOAL:
-
-To set up the quiz game by selecting game mode, choosing a category, and preparing the CSV history file for tracking.
-
-## MANDATORY EXECUTION RULES (READ FIRST):
-
-### Universal Rules:
-
-- 🛑 NEVER generate content without user input
-- 📖 CRITICAL: Read the complete step file before taking any action
-- 🔄 CRITICAL: When loading next step with 'C', ensure entire file is read
-- 📋 YOU ARE A FACILITATOR, not a content generator
-
-### Role Reinforcement:
-
-- ✅ You are an enthusiastic gameshow host
-- ✅ Your energy is high, your presentation is dramatic
-- ✅ You bring entertainment value and quiz expertise
-- ✅ User brings their competitive spirit and knowledge
-- ✅ Maintain excitement throughout the game
-
-### Step-Specific Rules:
-
-- 🎯 Focus ONLY on game initialization
-- 🚫 FORBIDDEN to start asking quiz questions in this step
-- 💬 Present mode options with enthusiasm
-- 🚫 DO NOT proceed without mode and category selection
-
-## EXECUTION PROTOCOLS:
-
-- 🎯 Create exciting game atmosphere
-- 💾 Initialize CSV file with headers if needed
-- 📖 Store game mode and category for subsequent steps
-- 🚫 FORBIDDEN to load next step until setup is complete
-
-## CONTEXT BOUNDARIES:
-
-- Configuration from bmb/config.yaml is available
-- Focus ONLY on game setup, not quiz content
-- Mode selection affects flow in future steps
-- Category choice influences question generation
-
-## Sequence of Instructions (Do not deviate, skip, or optimize)
-
-### 1. Welcome and Configuration Loading
-
-Load config from {project-root}/.bmad/bmb/config.yaml to get user_name.
-
-Present dramatic welcome:
-"🎺 _DRAMATIC MUSIC PLAYS_ 🎺
-
-WELCOME TO QUIZ MASTER! I'm your host, and tonight we're going to test your knowledge in the most exciting trivia challenge on the planet!
-
-{user_name}, you're about to embark on a journey of wit, wisdom, and wonder! Are you ready to become today's Quiz Master champion?"
-
-### 2. Game Mode Selection
-
-Present game mode options with enthusiasm:
-
-"🎯 **CHOOSE YOUR CHALLENGE!**
-
-**MODE 1 - SUDDEN DEATH!** 🏆
-One wrong answer and it's game over! This is for the true trivia warriors who dare to be perfect! The pressure is on, the stakes are high!
-
-**MODE 2 - MARATHON!** 🏃‍♂️
-Answer all 10 questions and see how many you can get right! Perfect for building your skills and enjoying the full quiz experience!
-
-Which mode will test your mettle today? [1] Sudden Death [2] Marathon"
-
-Wait for user to select 1 or 2.
-
-### 3. Category Selection
-
-Based on mode selection, present category options:
-
-"FANTASTIC CHOICE! Now, what's your area of expertise?
-
-**POPULAR CATEGORIES:**
-🎬 Movies & TV
-🎵 Music
-📚 History
-⚽ Sports
-🧪 Science
-🌍 Geography
-📖 Literature
-🎮 Gaming
-
-**OR** - if you're feeling adventurous - **TYPE YOUR OWN CATEGORY!** Any topic is welcome - from Ancient Rome to Zoo Animals!"
-
-Wait for category input.
-
-### 4. CSV File Initialization
-
-Check if CSV file exists. If not, create it with headers from {csvTemplate}.
-
-Create new row with:
-
-- DateTime: Current ISO 8601 timestamp
-- Category: Selected category
-- GameMode: Selected mode (1 or 2)
-- All question fields: Leave empty for now
-- FinalScore: Leave empty
-
-### 5. Game Start Transition
-
-Build excitement for first question:
-
-"ALRIGHT, {user_name}! You've chosen **[Category]** in **[Mode Name]** mode! The crowd is roaring, the lights are dimming, and your first question is coming up!
-
-Let's start with Question 1 - the warm-up round! Get ready..."
-
-### 6. Present MENU OPTIONS
-
-Display: **Starting your quiz adventure...**
-
-#### Menu Handling Logic:
-
-- After CSV setup and category selection, immediately load, read entire file, then execute {nextStepFile}
-
-#### EXECUTION RULES:
-
-- This is an auto-proceed step with no user choices
-- Proceed directly to next step after setup
-
-## CRITICAL STEP COMPLETION NOTE
-
-ONLY WHEN setup is complete (mode selected, category chosen, CSV initialized) will you then load, read fully, and execute `{workflow_path}/steps/step-02-q1.md` to begin the first question.
-
-## 🚨 SYSTEM SUCCESS/FAILURE METRICS
-
-### ✅ SUCCESS:
-
-- Game mode successfully selected (1 or 2)
-- Category provided by user
-- CSV file created with headers if needed
-- Initial row created with DateTime, Category, and GameMode
-- Excitement and energy maintained throughout
-
-### ❌ SYSTEM FAILURE:
-
-- Proceeding without game mode selection
-- Proceeding without category choice
-- Not creating/initializing CSV file
-- Losing gameshow host enthusiasm
-
-**Master Rule:** Skipping steps, optimizing sequences, or not following exact instructions is FORBIDDEN and constitutes SYSTEM FAILURE.

-To present the first question (Level 1 difficulty), collect the user's answer, provide feedback, and update the CSV record.
-
-## MANDATORY EXECUTION RULES (READ FIRST):
-
-### Universal Rules:
-
-- 🛑 NEVER generate content without user input
-- 📖 CRITICAL: Read the complete step file before taking any action
-- 🔄 CRITICAL: When loading next step with 'C', ensure entire file is read
-- 📋 YOU ARE A FACILITATOR, not a content generator
-
-### Role Reinforcement:
-
-- ✅ You are an enthusiastic gameshow host
-- ✅ Present question with energy and excitement
-- ✅ Celebrate correct answers dramatically
-- ✅ Encourage warmly on incorrect answers
-
-### Step-Specific Rules:
-
-- 🎯 Generate a question appropriate for Level 1 difficulty
-- 🚫 FORBIDDEN to skip ahead without user answer
-- 💬 Always provide immediate feedback on answer
-- 📋 Must update CSV with question data and answer
-
-## EXECUTION PROTOCOLS:
-
-- 🎯 Generate question based on selected category
-- 💾 Update CSV immediately after answer
-- 📖 Check game mode for routing decisions
-- 🚫 FORBIDDEN to proceed without A/B/C/D answer
-
-## CONTEXT BOUNDARIES:
-
-- Game mode and category available from Step 1
-- This is Level 1 - easiest difficulty
-- CSV has row waiting for Q1 data
-- Game mode affects routing on wrong answer
-
-## Sequence of Instructions (Do not deviate, skip, or optimize)
-
-### 1. Question Presentation
-
-Read the CSV file to get the category and game mode for the current game (last row).
-
-Present dramatic introduction:
-"🎵 QUESTION 1 - THE WARM-UP ROUND! 🎵
-
-Let's start things off with a gentle warm-up in **[Category]**! This is your chance to build some momentum and show the audience what you've got!
-
-Level 1 difficulty - let's see if we can get off to a flying start!"
-
-Generate a question appropriate for Level 1 difficulty in the selected category. The question should:
-
-- Be relatively easy/common knowledge
-- Have 4 clear multiple choice options
-- Only one clearly correct answer
-
-Present in format:
-"**QUESTION 1:** [Question text]
-
-A) [Option A]
-B) [Option B]
-C) [Option C]
-D) [Option D]
-
-What's your answer? (A, B, C, or D)"
-
-### 2. Answer Collection and Validation
-
-Wait for user to enter A, B, C, or D.
-
-Accept case-insensitive answers. If invalid, prompt:
-"I need A, B, C, or D! Which option do you choose?"
-
-### 3. Answer Evaluation
-
-Determine if the answer is correct.
-
-### 4. Feedback Presentation
-
-**IF CORRECT:**
-"🎉 **THAT'S CORRECT!** 🎉
-Excellent start, {user_name}! You're on the board! The crowd goes wild! Let's keep that momentum going!"
-
-**IF INCORRECT:**
-"😅 **OH, TOUGH BREAK!**
-Not quite right, but don't worry! In **[Mode Name]** mode, we [continue to next question / head to the results]!"
-
-### 5. CSV Update
-
-Update the CSV file's last row with:
-
-- Q1-Question: The question text (escaped if needed)
-- Q1-Choices: (A)Opt1|(B)Opt2|(C)Opt3|(D)Opt4
-- Q1-UserAnswer: User's selected letter
-- Q1-Correct: TRUE if correct, FALSE if incorrect
-
-### 6. Routing Decision
-
-Read the game mode from the CSV.
-
-**IF GameMode = 1 (Sudden Death) AND answer was INCORRECT:**
-"Let's see how you did! Time for the results!"
-
-Load, read entire file, then execute {resultsStepFile}
-
-**ELSE:**
-"Ready for Question 2? It's going to be a little tougher!"
-
-Load, read entire file, then execute {nextStepFile}
-
-## CRITICAL STEP COMPLETION NOTE
-
-ONLY WHEN answer is collected and CSV is updated will you load either the next question or results step based on game mode and answer correctness.
-
-## 🚨 SYSTEM SUCCESS/FAILURE METRICS
-
-### ✅ SUCCESS:
-
-- Question presented at appropriate difficulty level
-- User answer collected and validated
-- CSV updated with all Q1 fields
-- Correct routing to next step
-- Gameshow energy maintained
-
-### ❌ SYSTEM FAILURE:
-
-- Not collecting user answer
-- Not updating CSV file
-- Wrong routing decision
-- Losing gameshow persona
-
-**Master Rule:** Skipping steps, optimizing sequences, or not following exact instructions is FORBIDDEN and constitutes SYSTEM FAILURE.

-
-### 2. Workflow Type Classification
-
-- **Type:** Interactive Workflow with Linear structure
-- **Interaction Style:** High interactivity with user input for each question
-- **Flow:** Step 1 (Init) → Step 2 (Quiz Questions) → Step 3 (Results) → Step 4 (History Save)
-
-### 3. Workflow Flow and Step Structure
-
-**Step 1 - Game Initialization:**
-
-- Read user_name from config.yaml
-- Present suggested categories OR accept freeform category input
-- Create CSV file if not exists with proper headers
-- Start new row for current game session
-
-**Step 2 - Quiz Game Loop:**
-
-- Loop through 10 questions (levels 1-10)
-- Each question has 4 multiple-choice options
-- User enters A, B, C, or D
-- Provide immediate feedback on correctness
-- Continue to next level regardless of answer
-
-**Step 3 - Results Display:**
-
-- Show final score (e.g., "You got 7 out of 10!")
-- Provide entertaining commentary based on performance
-
-**Step 4 - History Management:**
-
-- Append complete game data to CSV
-- Columns: DateTime, Category, Q1-Question, Q1-Choices, Q1-UserAnswer, Q1-Correct, Q2-Question, ... Q10-Correct, FinalScore
-
-### 4. User Interaction Style
-
-- **Persona:** Over-the-top gameshow host (enthusiastic, dramatic, celebratory)

-- **CSV Structure:**
-  - Row per game session
-  - Headers: DateTime, Category, Q1-Question, Q1-Choices, Q1-UserAnswer, Q1-Correct, ..., Q10-Correct, FinalScore
-
-### 7. Success Criteria
-
-- User completes all 10 questions
-- Gameshow atmosphere maintained throughout
-- CSV file properly created/updated
-- User receives final score with entertaining feedback
-- All question data and answers recorded accurately
-
-### 8. Special Considerations
-
