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.
