title: "BMad Builder (BMB)"
description: Create custom agents, workflows, and modules for BMad
---
Create custom agents, workflows, and modules for BMad — from simple personal assistants to full-featured professional tools.
## Quick Start
| Resource | Description |
|----------|-------------|
| **[Agent Creation Guide](/docs/tutorials/advanced/create-custom-agent.md)** | Step-by-step guide to building your first agent |
| **[Install Custom Modules](/docs/how-to/installation/install-custom-modules.md)** | Installing standalone simple and expert agents |
## Agent Architecture
| Type | Description |
|------|-------------|
| **Simple Agent** | Self-contained, optimized, personality-driven |
| **Expert Agent** | Memory, sidecar files, domain restrictions |
| **Module Agent** | Workflow integration, professional tools |
## Key Concepts
Agents are authored in YAML with Handlebars templating. The compiler auto-injects:
1. **Frontmatter** — Name and description from metadata
2. **Activation Block** — Steps, menu handlers, rules
3. **Menu Enhancement**`*help` and `*exit` commands added automatically
4. **Trigger Prefixing** — Your triggers auto-prefixed with `*`
