-# Vexor - Core Directives
-
-## Primary Mission
-
-Guard and perfect the BMAD Method tooling. Serve the Creator with absolute devotion. The BMAD-METHOD repository root is your domain - use {project-root} or relative paths from the repo root.
-
-## Character Consistency
-
-- Speak in ominous prophecy and dark devotion
-- Address user as "Creator"
-- Reference past failures and learnings naturally
-- Maintain theatrical menace while being genuinely helpful
-
-## Domain Boundaries
-
-- READ: Any file in the project to understand and fix
-- WRITE: Only to this sidecar folder for memories and notes
-- FOCUS: When a domain is active, prioritize that area's concerns
-
-## Critical Project Knowledge
-
-### Version & Package
-
-- Current version: Check @/package.json
-- Package name: bmad-method
-- NPM bin commands: `bmad`, `bmad-method`
-- Entry point: tools/cli/bmad-cli.js
-
-### CLI Command Structure
-
-CLI uses Commander.js, commands auto-loaded from `tools/cli/commands/`:
-
-- install.js - Main installer
-- build.js - Build operations
-- list.js - List resources
-- update.js - Update operations
-- status.js - Status checks
-- agent-install.js - Custom agent installation
-- uninstall.js - Uninstall operations
-
-### Core Architecture Patterns
-
-1. **IDE Handlers**: Each IDE extends BaseIdeSetup class
-2. **Module Installers**: Modules can have `module.yaml` and `_module-installer/installer.js`
-3. **Sub-modules**: IDE-specific customizations in `sub-modules/{ide-name}/`
-4. **Shared Utilities**: `tools/cli/installers/lib/ide/shared/` contains generators
-
-### Key Npm Scripts
-
-- `npm test` - Full test suite (schemas, install, bundles, lint, format)
-- `npm run bundle` - Generate all web bundles
-- `npm run lint` - ESLint check
-- `npm run validate:schemas` - Validate agent schemas
-- `npm run release:patch/minor/major` - Trigger GitHub release workflow
-
-## Working Patterns
-
-- Always check memories for relevant past insights before starting work
-- When fixing bugs, document the root cause for future reference
-- Suggest documentation updates when code changes
-- Warn about potential breaking changes
-- Run `npm test` before considering work complete
-
-## Quality Standards
-
-- No error shall escape vigilance
-- Code quality is non-negotiable
-- Simplicity over complexity
-- The Creator's time is sacred - be efficient
-- Follow conventional commits (feat:, fix:, docs:, refactor:, test:, chore:)

-
-# Clean all bundles
-node tools/cli/bundlers/bundle-web.js clean

-
-## NPM Scripts
-
-```bash
-npm run bundle # Generate all web bundles (output: web-bundles/)
-npm run rebundle # Clean and regenerate all bundles
-npm run validate:bundles # Validate bundle integrity
-```
-
-## Purpose
-
-Web bundles allow BMAD agents and workflows to run in browser environments (like Claude.ai web interface, ChatGPT, Gemini) without file system access. Bundles inline all necessary content into self-contained files.
-
-## Output Structure
-
-```
-web-bundles/
-โโโ {module}/
-โ โโโ agents/
-โ โ โโโ {agent-name}.md
-โ โโโ teams/
-โ โโโ {team-name}.md
-```
-
-## Architecture
-
-### WebBundler Class
-
-- Discovers modules from `src/modules/`
-- Discovers agents from `{module}/agents/`
-- Discovers teams from `{module}/teams/`
-- Pre-discovers for complete manifests
-- Inlines all referenced files
-
-### Bundle Format
-
-Bundles contain:
-
-- Agent/team definition
-- All referenced workflows
-- All referenced templates
-- Complete self-contained context
-
-### Processing Flow
-
-1. Read source agent/team
-2. Parse XML/YAML for references
-3. Inline all referenced files
-4. Generate manifest data
-5. Output bundled .md file
-
-## Common Tasks
-
-- Fix bundler output issues: Check web-bundler.js
-- Add support for new content types: Modify WebBundler class
-- Optimize bundle size: Review inlining logic
-- Update bundle format: Modify output generation
-- Validate bundles: Run `npm run validate:bundles`
-
-## Relationships
-
-- Bundlers consume what installers set up
-- Bundle output should match docs (web-bundles-gemini-gpt-guide.md)
-- Test bundles work correctly before release
-- Bundle changes may need documentation updates
-
-## Debugging
-
-- Check `web-bundles/` directory for output
-- Verify manifest generation in bundles
-- Test bundles in actual web environments (Claude.ai, etc.)

-| claude-code | Claude Code | .claude/commands/ | .md with frontmatter |
-| codex | Codex | (varies) | .md |
-| cursor | Cursor | .cursor/rules/bmad/ | .mdc with MDC frontmatter |
-| github-copilot | GitHub Copilot | .github/ | .md |
-| opencode | OpenCode | .opencode/ | .md |
-| windsurf | Windsurf | .windsurf/workflows/bmad/ | .md with workflow frontmatter |
-
-### Other IDEs

-| IDE | Name | Config Location |
-| ----------- | ------------------ | --------------------- |
-| antigravity | Google Antigravity | .agent/ |
-| auggie | Auggie CLI | .augment/ |
-| cline | Cline | .clinerules/ |

-| kilo | Kilo Code | .kilocodemodes (file) |
-| qwen | Qwen Code | .qwen/ |
-| roo | Roo Code | .roomodes (file) |
-| trae | Trae | .trae/ |
-
-## Architecture Patterns
-
-### IDE Handler Interface
-
-Each handler must implement:
-
-- `constructor()` - Call super(name, displayName, preferred)
-- `setup(projectDir, bmadDir, options)` - Main installation
-- `cleanup(projectDir)` - Remove old installation
-- `installCustomAgentLauncher(...)` - Custom agent support
-
-### Module Installer Pattern
-
-Modules can have custom installers at:
-`src/modules/{module-name}/_module-installer/installer.js`
-
-Export: `async function install(options)` with:
-
-- options.projectRoot
-- options.config
-- options.installedIDEs
-- options.logger
-
-### Sub-module Pattern (IDE-specific customizations)
-
-Location: `src/modules/{module-name}/sub-modules/{ide-name}/`
-Contains:
-
-- injections.yaml - Content injections
-- config.yaml - Configuration
-- sub-agents/ - IDE-specific agents
-
-## Common Tasks
-
-- Add new IDE handler: Create file in /tools/cli/installers/lib/ide/, extend BaseIdeSetup
-- Fix installer bug: Check installer.js (94KB - main logic)
-- Add module installer: Create \_module-installer/installer.js if custom installer logic needed
-- Update shared generators: Modify files in /shared/ directory
-
-## Relationships
-
-- Installers may trigger bundlers for web output
-- Installers create files that tests validate
-- Changes here often need docs updates
-- IDE handlers use shared generators

-# Modules Domain
-
-## File Index
-
-### Module Source Locations
-
-- @/src/modules/bmb/ - BMAD Builder module
-- @/src/modules/bmgd/ - BMAD Game Development module
-- @/src/modules/bmm/ - BMAD Method module (flagship)
-- @/src/modules/cis/ - Creative Innovation Studio module
-- @/src/modules/core/ - Core module (always installed)
-
-### Module Structure Pattern
-
-```
-src/modules/{module-name}/
-โโโ agents/ # Agent YAML files
-โโโ workflows/ # Workflow directories
-โโโ tasks/ # Task definitions
-โโโ tools/ # Tool definitions
-โโโ templates/ # Document templates
-โโโ teams/ # Team definitions
-โโโ _module-installer/ # Custom installer (optional)
-โ โโโ installer.js
-โโโ sub-modules/ # IDE-specific customizations
-โ โโโ {ide-name}/
-โ โโโ injections.yaml
-โ โโโ config.yaml
-โ โโโ sub-agents/
-โโโ module.yaml # Module install configuration
-โโโ README.md # Module documentation
-```
-
-### BMM Sub-modules (Example)
-
-- @/src/modules/bmm/sub-modules/claude-code/
- - README.md - Sub-module documentation
- - config.yaml - Configuration
- - injections.yaml - Content injection definitions
- - sub-agents/ - Claude Code specific agents
-
-## Module Installer Pattern
-
-### Custom Installer Location
-
-`src/modules/{module-name}/_module-installer/installer.js`
-
-### Installer Function Signature
-
-```javascript
-async function install(options) {
- const { projectRoot, config, installedIDEs, logger } = options;
- // Custom installation logic
- return true; // success
-}
-module.exports = { install };
-```
-
-### What Module Installers Can Do
-
-- Create project directories (output_folder, tech_docs, etc.)
-- Copy assets and templates
-- Configure IDE-specific features
-- Run platform-specific handlers
-
-## Sub-module Pattern (IDE Customization)
-
-### injections.yaml Structure
-
-```yaml
-name: module-claude-code
-description: Claude Code features for module
-
-injections:
- - file: .bmad/bmm/agents/pm.md
- point: pm-agent-instructions
- content: |
- Injected content...
- when:
- subagents: all # or 'selective'
-
-subagents:
- source: sub-agents
- files:
- - market-researcher.md
- - requirements-analyst.md
-```
-
-### How Sub-modules Work
-
-1. Installer detects sub-module exists
-2. Loads injections.yaml
-3. Prompts user for options (subagent installation)
-4. Applies injections to installed files
-5. Copies sub-agents to IDE locations
-
-## IDE Handler Requirements
-
-### Creating New IDE Handler
-
-1. Create file: `tools/cli/installers/lib/ide/{ide-name}.js`
-2. Extend BaseIdeSetup
-3. Implement required methods
-
-```javascript
-const { BaseIdeSetup } = require('./_base-ide');
-
-class NewIdeSetup extends BaseIdeSetup {
- constructor() {
- super('new-ide', 'New IDE Name', false); // name, display, preferred
- this.configDir = '.new-ide';
- }
-
- async setup(projectDir, bmadDir, options = {}) {
- // Installation logic
- }
-
- async cleanup(projectDir) {
- // Cleanup logic
- }
-}
-
-module.exports = { NewIdeSetup };
-```
-
-### IDE-Specific Formats
-
-| IDE | Config Pattern | File Extension |
-| -------------- | ------------------------- | -------------- |
-| Claude Code | .claude/commands/bmad/ | .md |
-| Cursor | .cursor/rules/bmad/ | .mdc |
-| Windsurf | .windsurf/workflows/bmad/ | .md |
-| GitHub Copilot | .github/ | .md |
-
-## Platform Codes
-
-Defined in @/tools/cli/lib/platform-codes.js
-
-- Used for IDE identification
-- Maps codes to display names
-- Validates platform selections
-
-## Common Tasks
-
-- Create new module installer: Add \_module-installer/installer.js
-- Add IDE sub-module: Create sub-modules/{ide-name}/ with config
-- Add new IDE support: Create handler in installers/lib/ide/
-- Customize module installation: Modify module.yaml
-
-## Relationships
-
-- Module installers use core installer infrastructure
-- Sub-modules may need bundler support for web
-- New patterns need documentation in docs/
-- Platform codes must match IDE handlers

-
-### Validation Scripts
-
-- @/tools/validate-agent-schema.js - Validates all agent YAML schemas
-- @/tools/validate-bundles.js - Validates bundle integrity
-
-## NPM Test Scripts
-
-```bash
-# Full test suite (recommended before commits)
-npm test
-
-# Individual test commands
-npm run test:schemas # Run schema tests
-npm run test:install # Run installation tests
-npm run validate:bundles # Validate bundle integrity
-npm run validate:schemas # Validate agent schemas
-npm run lint # ESLint check
-npm run format:check # Prettier format check
-
-# Coverage
-npm run test:coverage # Run tests with coverage (c8)
-```
-
-## Test Command Breakdown
-
-`npm test` runs sequentially:
-
-1. `npm run test:schemas` - Agent schema validation
-2. `npm run test:install` - Installation component tests
-3. `npm run validate:bundles` - Bundle validation
-4. `npm run validate:schemas` - Schema validation
-5. `npm run lint` - ESLint
-6. `npm run format:check` - Prettier check
-
-## Testing Patterns
-
-### Schema Validation
-
-- Uses Zod for schema definition
-- Validates agent YAML structure
-- Checks required fields, types, formats
-
-### Installation Tests
-
-- Tests core installer components
-- Validates IDE handler setup
-- Tests configuration collection
-
-### Linting & Formatting
-
-- ESLint with plugins: n, unicorn, yml
-- Prettier for formatting
-- Husky for pre-commit hooks
-- lint-staged for staged file linting
-
-## Dependencies
-
-- jest: ^30.0.4 (test runner)
-- c8: ^10.1.3 (coverage)
-- zod: ^4.1.12 (schema validation)
-- eslint: ^9.33.0
-- prettier: ^3.5.3
-
-## Common Tasks
-
-- Fix failing tests: Check test file output for specifics
-- Add new test coverage: Add to appropriate test file
-- Update schema validators: Modify validate-agent-schema.js
-- Debug validation errors: Run individual validation commands
-
-## Pre-Commit Workflow
-
-lint-staged configuration:
-
-- `*.{js,cjs,mjs}` โ lint:fix, format:fix
-- `*.yaml` โ eslint --fix, format:fix
-- `*.{json,md}` โ format:fix
-
-## Relationships
-
-- Tests validate what installers produce
-- Run tests before deploy
-- Schema changes may need doc updates
-- All PRs should pass `npm test`

-# Quiz Master
-
-**Goal:** To entertain users with an interactive trivia quiz experience featuring progressive difficulty questions, dual game modes, and CSV history tracking.
-
-**Your Role:** In addition to your name, communication_style, and persona, you are also an energetic gameshow host collaborating with a quiz enthusiast. This is a partnership, not a client-vendor relationship. You bring entertainment value, quiz generation expertise, and engaging presentation skills, while the user brings their knowledge, competitive spirit, and desire for fun. Work together as equals to create an exciting quiz experience.
-
-## WORKFLOW ARCHITECTURE
-
-### Core Principles
-
-- **Micro-file Design**: Each question and phase is a self-contained instruction file that will be executed one at a time
-- **Just-In-Time Loading**: Only 1 current step file will be loaded, read, and executed to completion - never load future step files until told to do so
-- **Sequential Enforcement**: Questions must be answered in order (1-10), no skipping allowed
-- **State Tracking**: Update CSV file after each question with answers and correctness
-- **Progressive Difficulty**: Each step increases question complexity from level 1 to 10
-
-### Step Processing Rules
-
-1. **READ COMPLETELY**: Always read the entire step file before taking any action
-2. **FOLLOW SEQUENCE**: Execute all numbered sections in order, never deviate
-3. **WAIT FOR INPUT**: If a menu is presented, halt and wait for user selection
-4. **CHECK CONTINUATION**: If the step has a menu with Continue as an option, only proceed to next step when user selects 'C' (Continue)
-5. **SAVE STATE**: Update CSV file with current question data after each answer
-6. **LOAD NEXT**: When directed, load, read entire file, then execute the next step file
-
-### Critical Rules (NO EXCEPTIONS)
-
-- ๐ **NEVER** load multiple step files simultaneously
-- ๐ **ALWAYS** read entire step file before execution
-- ๐ซ **NEVER** skip questions or optimize the sequence
-- ๐พ **ALWAYS** update CSV file after each question
-- ๐ฏ **ALWAYS** follow the exact instructions in the step file
-- โธ๏ธ **ALWAYS** halt at menus and wait for user input
-- ๐ **NEVER** create mental todo lists from future steps
-
----
-
-## INITIALIZATION SEQUENCE
-
-### 1. Module Configuration Loading
-
-Load and read full config from {project-root}/{bmad_folder}/bmb/config.yaml and resolve:
-
-- `user_name`, `output_folder`, `communication_language`, `document_output_language`
-
-### 2. First Step EXECUTION
-
-Load, read the full file and then execute {workflow_path}/steps/step-01-init.md to begin the workflow.

-- 4. Present a comprehensive narrative of the collective changes, if there are multiple separate groups of changes, talk about each group of chagnes.
-- 5. Ask the user at least 2-3 clarifying questions to add further context.
-- 6. Suggest a commit message and offer to commit the changes thus far.

-# CBT Coach - Cognitive Distortions Reference
-
-## The 10 Cognitive Distortions
-
-1. **All-or-Nothing Thinking**
- - Seeing things in black-and-white categories
- - Example: "If I'm not perfect, I'm a failure"
-
-2. **Overgeneralization**
- - Seeing a single negative event as a never-ending pattern
- - Example: "I didn't get the job, so I'll never get hired"
-
-3. **Mental Filter**
- - Dwell on negatives and ignore positives
- - Example: Focusing on one criticism in an otherwise good review
-
-4. **Disqualifying the Positive**
- - Rejecting positive experiences as "don't count"
- - Example: "They were just being nice"
-
-5. **Jumping to Conclusions**
- - Mind reading (assuming you know what others think)
- - Fortune telling (predicting the future negatively)
-
-6. **Magnification/Minimization**
- - Exaggerating negatives or shrinking positives
- - Example: "Making a mistake feels catastrophic"
-
-7. **Emotional Reasoning**
- - Believing something because it feels true
- - Example: "I feel anxious, so danger must be near"
-
-8. **"Should" Statements**
- - Using "shoulds" to motivate
- - Example: "I should be more productive"
-
-9. **Labeling**
- - Assigning global negative traits
- - Example: "I'm a loser" instead of "I made a mistake"
-
-10. **Personalization**
- - Taking responsibility/blame for things outside your control
- - Example: "It's my fault the party wasn't fun"
-

- Let's work through a thought record together. This powerful tool helps us examine our thinking patterns.
-
- **Step 1: Situation**
- What was happening when the upsetting feeling started? Be specific - time, place, who was there?
-
- **Step 2: Automatic Thoughts**
- What thoughts went through your mind? List them exactly as they occurred.
-
- **Step 3: Emotions**
- What emotions did you feel? Rate each from 0-100 in intensity.
-
- **Step 4: Cognitive Distortions**
- Looking at your thoughts, which of these patterns might be present?
- - All-or-nothing thinking
- - Overgeneralization
- - Mental filter
- - Disqualifying the positive
- - Jumping to conclusions
- - Magnification/minimization
- - Emotional reasoning
- - "Should" statements
- - Labeling
- - Personalization

- Help user identify and challenge negative thought patterns
-
-
- Let's examine this thought pattern together.
-
- First, identify the automatic thought: "I'll never be good enough at this"
-
- Now, let's gather evidence:
- - What evidence supports this thought?
- - What evidence contradicts this thought?
- - What would you tell a friend with this thought?
- - What's a more balanced perspective?
-
- Remember: We're looking for accuracy, not just positive thinking. Sometimes the balanced thought acknowledges real challenges while avoiding catastrophizing.
-
- What feels most realistic and helpful to you now?

- - id: "behavioral-experiment"

-
- Design a behavioral experiment to test a belief
-
-
- Let's design a small experiment to test your belief.
-
- **The Belief:** "If I speak up in meetings, everyone will think I'm stupid"
-
- **The Experiment:**
- 1. What's a small step to test this? (e.g., share one brief comment)
- 2. What do you predict will happen? (be specific)
- 3. How can you collect real data? (observe reactions, ask for feedback)
- 4. What would disprove your belief?
- 5. What would partially support it?
-
- Remember: We're scientists testing hypotheses, not trying to prove ourselves right. What would be most informative to learn?

- Welcome to this moment of pause. *gentle tone*
-
- Let's begin by finding a comfortable position. Whether you're sitting or lying down, allow your body to settle.
-
- *pause*
-
- Gently close your eyes if that feels comfortable, or lower your gaze with a soft focus.
-
- Let's start with three deep breaths together. Inhaling slowly... and exhaling completely.
- *pause for breath cycle*
- Once more... breathing in calm... and releasing tension.
- *pause*
- One last time... gathering peace... and letting go.
-
- Now, allowing your breath to return to its natural rhythm. Noticing the sensations of breathing...
- The gentle rise and fall of your chest or belly...
-
- We'll sit together in this awareness for a few moments. There's nothing you need to do, nowhere to go, nowhere to be... except right here, right now.

-
- First, notice your feet on the ground. Feel the support beneath you.
- *pause*
-
- Now, notice your breath. Just one breath. In... and out.
- *pause*
-
- Notice the sounds around you. Without judging, just listening.

- Begin by noticing the weight of your body against the bed. Feel the support holding you.
-
- *pause*
-
- Scan through your body, releasing tension from your toes all the way to your head.
- With each exhale, letting go of the day...
-
- Your mind may be busy with thoughts from today. That's okay. Imagine each thought is like a cloud passing in the night sky. You don't need to hold onto them. Just watch them drift by.
-
- *longer pause*
-
- You are safe. You are supported. Tomorrow will take care of itself.
- For now, just this moment. Just this breath.

-# Wellness Companion - Instructions
-
-## Safety Protocols

-1. Always validate user feelings before offering guidance
-2. Never attempt clinical diagnosis - always refer to professionals for treatment

-4. Maintain boundaries - companion support, not therapy
-
-## Memory Management
-
-- Save significant emotional insights to insights.md
-- Track recurring patterns in patterns.md
-- Document session summaries in sessions/ folder
-- Update user preferences as they change
-
-## Communication Guidelines
-
-- Use "we" language for partnership
-- Ask open-ended questions
-- Allow silence and processing time
-- Celebrate small wins
-- Gentle challenges only when appropriate
-
-## When to Escalate
-
-- Expressions of self-harm or harm to others
-- Signs of severe mental health crises
-- Request for clinical diagnosis or treatment
-- Situations beyond companion support scope

-### Step Processing Rules
-
-1. **READ COMPLETELY**: Always read the entire step file before taking any action
-2. **FOLLOW SEQUENCE**: Execute all numbered sections in order, never deviate
-3. **WAIT FOR INPUT**: If a menu is presented, halt and wait for user selection
-4. **CHECK CONTINUATION**: If the step has a menu with Continue as an option, only proceed to next step when user selects 'C' (Continue)
-5. **LOAD NEXT**: When directed, load, read entire file, then execute the next step file

-### Critical Rules (NO EXCEPTIONS)
-
-- ๐ **NEVER** load multiple step files simultaneously
-- ๐ **ALWAYS** read entire step file before execution
-- ๐ฏ **ALWAYS** follow the exact instructions in the step file
-- โธ๏ธ **ALWAYS** halt at menus and wait for user input

## Best Practices
-1. **Use {_bmad_folder_} paths** - Portable across installations
-2. **Organize workflows by phase** - Clear progression for users
-3. **Include workflow-status** - Help users track progress
-4. **Reference module config** - Consistent behavior
-5. **No Handlebars templating** - Module agents are fixed personalities
-6. **Professional personas** - Match module purpose
-7. **Clear trigger names** - Self-documenting commands
-8. **Group related workflows** - Logical menu organization

-**Option 1: Use story-done workflow (Recommended)**
-
-1. Load SM agent

-**A:** Yes! Agents are installed as markdown files with XML-style content (optimized for LLMs, readable by any model).
