* fix: use repo-relative links with .md for GitHub compatibility

and converts .md to trailing slash at build time for Astro/Starlight.

- Update fix-doc-links.js to generate /docs/ prefixed paths with .md extension
- Convert 217 links across 64 files to new format

before checking if files exist.

updated repo-relative link format.

How to Set Up Party Mode How to set up and use Party Mode for multi-agent collaboration

Use Party Mode to orchestrate dynamic multi-agent conversations with your entire BMad team.


When to Use This

  • Exploring complex topics that benefit from diverse expert perspectives
  • Brainstorming with agents who can build on each other's ideas
  • Getting comprehensive views across multiple domains
  • Strategic decisions with trade-offs

Prerequisites

  • BMad Method installed with multiple agents
  • Any agent loaded that supports party mode

Steps

1. Load Any Agent

Start with any agent that supports party mode (most do).

2. Start Party Mode

*party-mode

Or use the full path:

/bmad:core:workflows:party-mode

3. Introduce Your Topic

Present a topic or question for the group to discuss:

I'm trying to decide between a monolithic architecture
and microservices for our new platform.

4. Engage with the Discussion

The facilitator will:

  • Select 2-3 most relevant agents based on expertise
  • Let agents respond in character
  • Enable natural cross-talk and debate
  • Continue until you choose to exit

5. Exit When Ready

Type "exit" or "done" to conclude the session. Participating agents will say personalized farewells.


What Happens

  1. Agent Roster - Party Mode loads your complete agent roster
  2. Introduction - Available team members are introduced
  3. Topic Analysis - The facilitator analyzes your topic
  4. Agent Selection - 2-3 most relevant agents are selected
  5. Discussion - Agents respond, reference each other, engage in cross-talk
  6. Exit - Session concludes with farewells

Technical Design

  • Architect + Creative Problem Solver (CIS) + Game Architect

User Experience

  • Use for strategic decisions, not routine tasks
