manjaroblack 5efbff3227 Feat/flattener-tool (#337)
* This PR introduces a powerful new Codebase Flattener Tool that aggregates entire codebases into AI-optimized XML format, making it easy to share project context with AI assistants for analysis, debugging, and development assistance.

- AI-Optimized XML Output : Generates clean, structured XML specifically designed for AI model consumption
- Smart File Discovery : Recursive file scanning with intelligent filtering using glob patterns
- Binary File Detection : Automatically identifies and excludes binary files, focusing on source code
- Progress Tracking : Real-time progress indicators with comprehensive completion statistics
- Flexible Output : Customizable output file location and naming via CLI arguments
- Gitignore Integration : Automatically respects .gitignore patterns to exclude unnecessary files
- CDATA Handling : Proper XML CDATA sections with escape sequence handling for ]]> patterns
- Content Indentation : Beautiful XML formatting with properly indented file content (4-space indentation)
- Error Handling : Robust error handling with detailed logging for problematic files
- Hierarchical Formatting : Clean XML structure with proper indentation and formatting
- File Content Preservation : Maintains original file formatting within indented CDATA sections
- Exclusion Logic : Prevents self-inclusion of output files ( flattened-codebase.xml , repomix-output.xml )
- tools/flattener/main.js - Complete flattener implementation with CLI interface
- package.json - Added new dependencies (glob, minimatch, fs-extra, commander, ora, chalk)
- package-lock.json - Updated dependency tree
- .gitignore - Added exclusions for flattener outputs
- README.md - Comprehensive documentation with usage examples
- docs/bmad-workflow-guide.md - Integration guidance
- tools/cli.js - CLI integration
- .vscode/settings.json - SonarLint configuration
```
current directory
npm run flatten

npm run flatten -- --output my-project.xml
npm run flatten -- -o /path/to/output/codebase.xml
```
The tool provides comprehensive completion summaries including:

- File count and breakdown (text/binary/errors)
- Source code size and generated XML size
- Total lines of code and estimated token count
- Processing progress and performance metrics
- Bug Fix : Corrected typo in exclusion patterns ( repromix-output.xml → repomix-output.xml )
- Performance : Efficient file processing with streaming and progress indicators
- Reliability : Comprehensive error handling and validation
- Maintainability : Clean, well-documented code with modular functions
- AI Integration : Perfect for sharing codebase context with AI assistants
- Code Reviews : Streamlined code review process with complete project context
- Documentation : Enhanced project documentation and analysis capabilities
- Development Workflow : Improved development assistance and debugging support
This tool significantly enhances the BMad-Method framework's AI integration capabilities, providing developers with a seamless way to share complete project context for enhanced AI-assisted development workflows.

* docs(bmad-core): update documentation for enhanced workflow and user guide

- Fix typos and improve clarity in user guide
- Add new enhanced development workflow documentation
- Update brownfield workflow with flattened codebase instructions
- Improve consistency in documentation formatting

* chore: remove unused files and configurations

- Delete deprecated bmad workflow guide and roomodes file
- Remove sonarlint project configuration
- Downgrade ora dependency version
- Remove jest test script

* Update package.json

Removed jest as it is not needed.

* Update working-in-the-brownfield.md

added documentation for sharding docs

* perf(flattener): improve memory efficiency by streaming xml output

- Replace in-memory XML generation with streaming approach
- Add comprehensive common ignore patterns list
- Update statistics calculation to use file size instead of content length

* fix/chore: Update console.log for user-guide.md install path. Cleaned up config files/folders and updated .gitignore (#347)

* fix: Update console.log for user-guide.md install path

Changed
IMPORTANT: Please read the user guide installed at docs/user-guilde.md
to
IMPORTANT: Please read the user guide installed at .bmad-core/user-guide.md

WHY: the actual install location of the user-guide.md is in the .bmad-core directory.

* chore: remove formatting configs and clean up gitignore

- Delete husky pre-commit hook and prettier config files
- Remove VS Code chat/copilot settings
- Reorganize and clean up gitignore entries

* feat: Overhaul and Enhance 2D Unity Game Dev Expansion Pack (#350)

* Updated game-sm agent to match the new core framework patterns

* feat:Created more comprehensive game story matching new format system as well

* feat:Added Game specific course correct task

* feat:Updated dod-checklist to match new DoD format

* feat:Added new Architect agent for appropriate architecture doc creation and design

* feat:Overhaul of game-architecture-tmpl template

* feat:Updated rest of templates besides level which doesnt really need it

* feat: Finished extended architecture documentation needed for new game story tasks

* feat: Updated game Developer to new format

* feat: Updated last agent to new format and updated bmad-kb. bmad-kb I did my best with but im not sure of it's valid usage in the expansion pack, the AI generated more of the file then myself. I made sure to include it due to the new core-config file

* feat: Finished updating designer agent to new format and cleaned up template linting errors

* Built dist for web bundle

* Increased expansion pack minor verison number

* Updated architecht and design for sharding built-in

* chore: bump bmad-2d-unity-game-dev version (minor)

* updated config.yaml for game-specific pieces to supplement core-config.yaml

* Updated game-core-config and epic processing for game story and game design. Initial implementation was far too generic

* chore: bump bmad-2d-unity-game-dev version (patch)

* feat: Fixed issue with multi-configs being needed. chore: bump bmad-2d-unity-game-dev version (patch)

* Chore: Built web-bundle

* feat: Added the ability to specify the unity editor install location.\nchore: bump bmad-2d-unity-game-dev version (patch)

* feat: core-config must be in two places to support inherited tasks at this time so added instructions to copy and create one in expansion pack folder as well. chore: bump bmad-2d-unity-game-dev version (patch)

* This PR introduces a powerful new Codebase Flattener Tool that aggregates entire codebases into AI-optimized XML format, making it easy to share project context with AI assistants for analysis, debugging, and development assistance.
