This commit represents a significant milestone in the BMAD-METHOD v4 framework restructuring effort, focusing on cleaning up legacy v3 content and enhancing IDE agent configurations.
Key Changes:
1. Legacy Content Cleanup:
- Removed entire _old/ directory containing v3 framework content (55 files, ~6900 lines)
- Deleted deprecated checklists, personas, tasks, and templates from v3
- Cleaned up obsolete web orchestrator configurations
2. IDE Agent Enhancements:
- Added new IDE agent configurations for all major roles:
* analyst.ide.md - Business Analyst agent
* architect.ide.md - Architecture specialist agent
* pm.ide.md - Product Manager agent
* po.ide.md - Product Owner agent
* devops.ide.md - DevOps/Platform Engineer agent (replacing devops-pe.ide.md)
- Updated dev.ide.md with improved structure and commands
- Enhanced sm.ide.md with proper persona naming (Bob)
3. New Persona Definitions:
- Added missing persona files: dev.md, devops.md, qa.md
- Standardized persona format across all roles
4. QA Agent Addition:
- Added qa.yml configuration for Quality Assurance agent
5. IDE Integration Improvements:
- Added .claude/commands/ directory for Claude Code command definitions
- Added .cursor/rules/ for Cursor IDE integration
- Created agent-switcher.ide.md utility for seamless agent switching
6. Command Updates:
- Renamed /exit command to /exit-agent for clarity and consistency
7. Build System Updates:
- Minor fixes to web-builder.js for improved bundle generation
This restructuring aligns with the v4 architecture goals of modularity, reusability, and improved developer experience across different IDE environments.

Do This First, and all will make sense
There are lots of docs here, but I HIGHLY suggest you just try the Web Agent - it takes just a few minutes to set up in Gemini - and you can use the BMad Agent to explain how this method works, how to set up in the IDE, how to set up in the Web, what should be done in the web or ide (although you can choose your own path also!) - all just by talking to the bmad agent!
Web Quickstart Project Setup (Recommended)
Orchestrator Uber BMad Agent that does it all - already pre-compiled in the web-build-sample folder.
- The contents of Agent Prompt Sample text get pasted into the Gemini Gem, or ChatPGT customGPT 'Instructions' field.
- The remaining files in that same folder folder just need to be attached as shown in the screenshot below. Give it a name (such as BMad Agent) and save it, and you now have the BMad Agent available to help you brainstorm, research, plan, execute on your vision, or understand how this all even works!
- Once its running, start with typing
/help, and then type option2when it presents 3 options to learn about the method!
