# BMAD Method Guide for Cline (VS Code)
|
|
|
|
This guide covers Cline-specific setup and usage with BMAD Method. For the complete workflow, see the [BMAD Workflow Guide](../bmad-workflow-guide.md).
|
|
|
|
## Installation
|
|
|
|
When running `npx bmad-method install`, select **Cline** as your IDE. This creates:
|
|
|
|
- `.clinerules/` directory with numbered agent rule files (`.md`)
|
|
- Agents ordered by priority (bmad-master first)
|
|
|
|
## Using BMAD Agents in Cline
|
|
|
|
1. **Open Cline panel** in VS Code
|
|
2. **Type `@agent-name`** in the chat (e.g., `@dev`, `@sm`, `@architect`)
|
|
3. The agent adopts that persona for the conversation
|
|
|
|
## Available Agents
|
|
|
|
All agents use `@` prefix:
|
|
|
|
- `@bmad-master` - Universal task executor
|
|

|
|

|
|
|
|
## Cline-Specific Features

- **Rule files**: Stored as numbered files in `.clinerules/` (e.g., `01-bmad-master.md`)
|
|
