-# Testing AgentVibes Party Mode (PR #934)
-
-This guide helps you test the AgentVibes integration that adds multi-agent party mode with unique voices for each BMAD agent.
-
-## Quick Start
-
-We've created an automated test script that handles everything for you:
-
-```bash
-curl -fsSL https://raw.githubusercontent.com/paulpreibisch/BMAD-METHOD/feature/agentvibes-tts-integration/test-bmad-pr.sh -o test-bmad-pr.sh
-chmod +x test-bmad-pr.sh
-./test-bmad-pr.sh
-```
-
-## What the Script Does
-
-The automated script will:
-
-1. Clone the BMAD repository
-2. Checkout the PR branch with party mode features
-3. Install BMAD CLI tools locally
-4. Create a test BMAD project
-5. Install AgentVibes TTS system
-6. Configure unique voices for each agent
-7. Verify the installation
-
-## Prerequisites
-
-- Node.js and npm installed
-- Git installed
-- ~500MB free disk space
-- 10-15 minutes for complete setup
-
-## Manual Testing (Alternative)
-
-If you prefer manual installation:
-
-### 1. Clone and Setup BMAD
-
-```bash
-git clone https://github.com/paulpreibisch/BMAD-METHOD.git
-cd BMAD-METHOD
-git fetch origin pull/934/head:agentvibes-party-mode
-git checkout agentvibes-party-mode
-cd tools/cli
-npm install
-npm link
-```
-
-### 2. Create Test Project
-
-```bash
-mkdir -p ~/bmad-test-project
-cd ~/bmad-test-project
-bmad install
-```
-
-When prompted:
-
-- Enable TTS for agents? → **Yes**
-- The installer will automatically prompt you to install AgentVibes
-
-### 3. Test Party Mode
-
-```bash
-cd ~/bmad-test-project
-claude-code
-```
-
-In Claude Code, run:
-
-```
-/bmad:core:workflows:party-mode
-```
-
-Each BMAD agent should speak with a unique voice!
-
-## Verification
-
-After installation, verify:
-
-✅ Voice map file exists: `.bmad/_cfg/agent-voice-map.csv`
-✅ BMAD TTS hooks exist: `.claude/hooks/bmad-speak.sh`
-✅ Each agent has a unique voice assigned
-✅ Party mode works with distinct voices
-
-## Troubleshooting
-
-**No audio?**
-
-- Check: `.claude/hooks/play-tts.sh` exists
-- Test current voice: `/agent-vibes:whoami`
-
-**Same voice for all agents?**
-
-- Check: `.bmad/_cfg/agent-voice-map.csv` has different voices
-- List available voices: `/agent-vibes:list`
-
-## Report Issues
-
-Found a bug? Report it on the PR:
-https://github.com/bmad-code-org/BMAD-METHOD/pull/934
-
-## Cleanup
-
-To remove the test installation:
-
-```bash
-# Remove test directory
-rm -rf ~/bmad-test-project  # or your custom test directory
-
-# Unlink BMAD CLI (optional)
-cd ~/BMAD-METHOD/tools/cli
-npm unlink
-```

-- Complete persona and role definition
-- Command structure with fuzzy matching
-- Workflow integration
-- Module-specific capabilities
+- **Self-contained**: All logic in single YAML file
+- **Stateless**: No persistent memory across sessions
+- **Purpose**: Single utilities and specialized tools
+- **Example**: Commit poet, code formatter
 
-### Hybrid Agent
+### Expert Agent
 
-- Shared core capabilities
-- Module-specific extensions
-- Cross-module compatibility
+- **Persistent Memory**: Maintains knowledge across sessions
+- **Sidecar Resources**: External files and data storage

+
+### 1. Micro-File Design
+
+Each workflow consists of multiple focused, self-contained files:
+
+```
+workflow-folder/
+├── workflow.md              # Main workflow configuration
+├── steps/                   # Step instruction files (focused, self-contained)
+│   ├── step-01-init.md
+│   ├── step-02-profile.md
+│   └── step-N-[name].md
+├── templates/               # Content templates
+│   ├── profile-section.md
+│   └── [other-sections].md
+└── data/                    # Optional data files
+    └── [data-files].csv/.json
+```
+
+### 2. Just-In-Time (JIT) Loading
+
+- **Single File in Memory**: Only the current step file is loaded
+- **No Future Peeking**: Step files must not reference future steps
+- **Sequential Processing**: Steps execute in strict order
+- **On-Demand Loading**: Templates load only when needed
+
+### 3. State Management
+
+- **Frontmatter Tracking**: Workflow state stored in output document frontmatter
+- **Progress Array**: `stepsCompleted` tracks completed steps
+- **Last Step Marker**: `lastStep` indicates where to resume
+- **Append-Only Building**: Documents grow by appending content
+
+### 4. Execution Model
+
+```
+1. Load workflow.md → Read configuration
+2. Execute step-01-init.md → Initialize or detect continuation
+3. For each step:
+   a. Load step file completely
+   b. Execute instructions sequentially
+   c. Wait for user input at menu points
+   d. Only proceed with 'C' (Continue)
+   e. Update document/frontmatter
+   f. Load next step
+```
+
+## Key Components
+
+### Workflow File (workflow.md)
+
+- **Purpose**: Entry point and configuration
+- **Content**: Role definition, goal, architecture rules
+- **Action**: Points to step-01-init.md
+
+### Step Files (step-NN-[name].md)
+
+- **Size**: Focused and concise (typically 5-10KB)
+- **Structure**: Frontmatter + sequential instructions
+- **Features**: Self-contained rules, menu handling, state updates
+
+### Frontmatter Variables
+
+Standard variables in step files:
+
+```yaml
+workflow_path: '{project-root}/{bmad_folder}/bmb/reference/workflows/[workflow-name]'
+thisStepFile: '{workflow_path}/steps/step-[N]-[name].md'
+nextStepFile: '{workflow_path}/steps/step-[N+1]-[name].md'
+workflowFile: '{workflow_path}/workflow.md'
+outputFile: '{output_folder}/[output-name]-{project_name}.md'
+```
+
+## Execution Flow
+
+### Fresh Workflow
+
+```
+workflow.md
+    ↓
+step-01-init.md (creates document)
+    ↓
+step-02-[name].md
+    ↓
+step-03-[name].md
+    ↓
+...
+    ↓
+step-N-[final].md (completes workflow)
+```
+
+### Continuation Workflow
+
+```
+workflow.md
+    ↓
+step-01-init.md (detects existing document)
+    ↓
+step-01b-continue.md (analyzes state)
+    ↓
+step-[appropriate-next].md
+```
+
+## Menu System
+
+### Standard Menu Pattern
+
+```
+Display: **Select an Option:** [A] [Action] [P] Party Mode [C] Continue
+
+#### Menu Handling Logic:
+- IF A: Execute {advancedElicitationTask}
+- IF P: Execute {partyModeWorkflow}
+- IF C: Save content, update frontmatter, load next step
+```
+
+### Menu Rules
+
+- **Halt Required**: Always wait for user input
+- **Continue Only**: Only proceed with 'C' selection
+- **State Persistence**: Save before loading next step
+- **Loop Back**: Return to menu after other actions
+
+## Collaborative Dialogue Model
+
+### Not Command-Response
+
+- **Facilitator Role**: AI guides, user decides
+- **Equal Partnership**: Both parties contribute
+- **No Assumptions**: Don't assume user wants next step
+- **Explicit Consent**: Always ask for input
+
+### Example Pattern
+
+```
+AI: "Tell me about your dietary preferences."
+User: [provides information]
+AI: "Thank you. Now let's discuss your cooking habits."
+[Continue conversation]
+AI: **Menu Options**
+```
+
+## CSV Intelligence (Optional)
+
+### Data-Driven Behavior
+
+- Configuration in CSV files
+- Dynamic menu options
+- Variable substitution
+- Conditional logic
+
+### Example Structure
+
+```csv
+variable,type,value,description
+cooking_frequency,choice,"daily|weekly|occasionally","How often user cooks"
+meal_type,multi,"breakfast|lunch|dinner|snacks","Types of meals to plan"
+```
+
+## Best Practices
+
+### File Size Limits
+
+- **Step Files**: Keep focused and reasonably sized (5-10KB typical)
+- **Templates**: Keep focused and reusable
+- **Workflow File**: Keep lean, no implementation details
+
+### Sequential Enforcement
+
+- **Numbered Steps**: Use sequential numbering (1, 2, 3...)
+- **No Skipping**: Each step must complete
+- **State Updates**: Mark completion in frontmatter
+
+### Error Prevention
+
+- **Path Variables**: Use frontmatter variables, never hardcode
+- **Complete Loading**: Always read entire file before execution
+- **Menu Halts**: Never proceed without 'C' selection
+
+## Migration from XML
+
+### Advantages
+
+- **No Dependencies**: Pure markdown, no XML parsing
+- **Human Readable**: Files are self-documenting
+- **Git Friendly**: Clean diffs and merges
+- **Flexible**: Easier to modify and extend
+
+### Key Differences
+
+| XML Workflows     | Standalone Workflows    |
+| ----------------- | ----------------------- |
+| Single large file | Multiple micro-files    |
+| Complex structure | Simple sequential steps |
+| Parser required   | Any markdown viewer     |
+| Rigid format      | Flexible organization   |
+
+## Implementation Notes
+
+### Critical Rules
+
+- **NEVER** load multiple step files
+- **ALWAYS** read complete step file first
+- **NEVER** skip steps or optimize
+- **ALWAYS** update frontmatter of the output file when a step is complete
+- **NEVER** proceed without user consent
+
+### Success Metrics
+
+- Documents created correctly
+- All steps completed sequentially
+- User satisfied with collaborative process
+- Clean, maintainable file structure
+
+This architecture ensures disciplined, predictable workflow execution while maintaining flexibility for different use cases.

+# CSV Data File Standards for BMAD Workflows
+
+## Purpose and Usage
+
+CSV data files in BMAD workflows serve specific purposes for different workflow types:
+
+**For Agents:** Provide structured data that agents need to reference but cannot realistically generate (such as specific configurations, domain-specific data, or structured knowledge bases).
+
+**For Expert Agents:** Supply specialized knowledge bases, reference data, or persistent information that the expert agent needs to access consistently across sessions.
+
+**For Workflows:** Include reference data, configuration parameters, or structured inputs that guide workflow execution and decision-making.
+
+**Key Principle:** CSV files should contain data that is essential, structured, and not easily generated by LLMs during execution.
+
+## Intent-Based Design Principle
+
+**Core Philosophy:** The closer workflows stay to **intent** rather than **prescriptive** instructions, the more creative and adaptive the LLM experience becomes.
+
+**CSV Enables Intent-Based Design:**
+
+- **Instead of:** Hardcoded scripts with exact phrases LLM must say
+- **CSV Provides:** Clear goals and patterns that LLM adapts creatively to context
+- **Result:** Natural, contextual conversations rather than rigid scripts
+
+**Example - Advanced Elicitation:**
+
+- **Prescriptive Alternative:** 50 separate files with exact conversation scripts
+- **Intent-Based Reality:** One CSV row with method goal + pattern → LLM adapts to user
+- **Benefit:** Same method works differently for different users while maintaining essence
+
+**Intent vs Prescriptive Spectrum:**
+
+- **Highly Prescriptive:** "Say exactly: 'Based on my analysis, I recommend...'"
+- **Balanced Intent:** "Help the user understand the implications using your professional judgment"
+- **CSV Goal:** Provide just enough guidance to enable creative, context-aware execution
+
+## Primary Use Cases
+
+### 1. Knowledge Base Indexing (Document Lookup Optimization)
+
+**Problem:** Large knowledge bases with hundreds of documents cause context blowup and missed details when LLMs try to process them all.
+
+**CSV Solution:** Create a knowledge base index with:
+
+- **Column 1:** Keywords and topics
+- **Column 2:** Document file path/location
+- **Column 3:** Section or line number where relevant content starts
+- **Column 4:** Content type or summary (optional)
+
+**Result:** Transform from context-blowing document loads to surgical precision lookups, creating agents with near-infinite knowledge bases while maintaining optimal context usage.
+
+### 2. Workflow Sequence Optimization
+
+**Problem:** Complex workflows (e.g., game development) with hundreds of potential steps for different scenarios become unwieldy and context-heavy.
+
+**CSV Solution:** Create a workflow routing table:
+
+- **Column 1:** Scenario type (e.g., "2D Platformer", "RPG", "Puzzle Game")
+- **Column 2:** Required step sequence (e.g., "step-01,step-03,step-07,step-12")
+- **Column 3:** Document sections to include
+- **Column 4:** Specialized parameters or configurations
+
+**Result:** Step 1 determines user needs, finds closest match in CSV, confirms with user, then follows optimized sequence - truly optimal for context usage.
+
+### 3. Method Registry (Dynamic Technique Selection)
+
+**Problem:** Tasks need to select optimal techniques from dozens of options based on context, without hardcoding selection logic.
+
+**CSV Solution:** Create a method registry with:
+
+- **Column 1:** Category (collaboration, advanced, technical, creative, etc.)
+- **Column 2:** Method name and rich description
+- **Column 3:** Execution pattern or flow guide (e.g., "analysis → insights → action")
+- **Column 4:** Complexity level or use case indicators
+
+**Example:** Advanced Elicitation task analyzes content context, selects 5 best-matched methods from 50 options, then executes dynamically using CSV descriptions.
+
+**Result:** Smart, context-aware technique selection without hardcoded logic - infinitely extensible method libraries.
+
+### 4. Configuration Management
+
+**Problem:** Complex systems with many configuration options that vary by use case.
+
+**CSV Solution:** Configuration lookup tables mapping scenarios to specific parameter sets.
+
+## What NOT to Include in CSV Files
+
+**Avoid Web-Searchable Data:** Do not include information that LLMs can readily access through web search or that exists in their training data, such as:
+
+- Common programming syntax or standard library functions
+- General knowledge about widely used technologies
+- Historical facts or commonly available information
+- Basic terminology or standard definitions
+
+**Include Specialized Data:** Focus on data that is:
+
+- Specific to your project or domain
+- Not readily available through web search
+- Essential for consistent workflow execution
+- Too voluminous for LLM context windows
+
+## CSV Data File Standards
+
+### 1. Purpose Validation
+
+- **Essential Data Only:** CSV must contain data that cannot be reasonably generated by LLMs
+- **Domain Specific:** Data should be specific to the workflow's domain or purpose
+- **Consistent Usage:** All columns and data must be referenced and used somewhere in the workflow
+- **No Redundancy:** Avoid data that duplicates functionality already available to LLMs
+
+### 2. Structural Standards
+
+- **Valid CSV Format:** Proper comma-separated values with quoted fields where needed
+- **Consistent Columns:** All rows must have the same number of columns
+- **No Missing Data:** Empty values should be explicitly marked (e.g., "", "N/A", or NULL)
+- **Header Row:** First row must contain clear, descriptive column headers
+- **Proper Encoding:** UTF-8 encoding required for special characters
+
+### 3. Content Standards
+
+- **No LLM-Generated Content:** Avoid data that LLMs can easily generate (e.g., generic phrases, common knowledge)
+- **Specific and Concrete:** Use specific values rather than vague descriptions
+- **Verifiable Data:** Data should be factual and verifiable when possible
+- **Consistent Formatting:** Date formats, numbers, and text should follow consistent patterns
+
+### 4. Column Standards
+
+- **Clear Headers:** Column names must be descriptive and self-explanatory
+- **Consistent Data Types:** Each column should contain consistent data types
+- **No Unused Columns:** Every column must be referenced and used in the workflow
+- **Appropriate Width:** Columns should be reasonably narrow and focused
+
+### 5. File Size Standards
+
+- **Efficient Structure:** CSV files should be as small as possible while maintaining functionality
+- **No Redundant Rows:** Avoid duplicate or nearly identical rows
+- **Compressed Data:** Use efficient data representation (e.g., codes instead of full descriptions)
+- **Maximum Size:** Individual CSV files should not exceed 1MB unless absolutely necessary
+
+### 6. Documentation Standards
+
+- **Documentation Required:** Each CSV file should have documentation explaining its purpose
+- **Column Descriptions:** Each column must be documented with its usage and format
+- **Data Sources:** Source of data should be documented when applicable
+- **Update Procedures:** Process for updating CSV data should be documented
+
+### 7. Integration Standards
+
+- **File References:** CSV files must be properly referenced in workflow configuration
+- **Access Patterns:** Workflow must clearly define how and when CSV data is accessed
+- **Error Handling:** Workflow must handle cases where CSV files are missing or corrupted
+- **Version Control:** CSV files should be versioned when changes occur
+
+### 8. Quality Assurance
+
+- **Data Validation:** CSV data should be validated for correctness and completeness
+- **Format Consistency:** Consistent formatting across all rows and columns
+- **No Ambiguity:** Data entries should be clear and unambiguous
+- **Regular Review:** CSV content should be reviewed periodically for relevance
+
+### 9. Security Considerations
+
+- **No Sensitive Data:** Avoid including sensitive, personal, or confidential information
+- **Data Sanitization:** CSV data should be sanitized for security issues
+- **Access Control:** Access to CSV files should be controlled when necessary
+- **Audit Trail:** Changes to CSV files should be logged when appropriate
+
+### 10. Performance Standards
+
+- **Fast Loading:** CSV files must load quickly within workflow execution
+- **Memory Efficient:** Structure should minimize memory usage during processing
+- **Optimized Queries:** If data lookup is needed, optimize for efficient access
+- **Caching Strategy**: Consider whether data can be cached for performance
+
+## Implementation Guidelines
+
+When creating CSV data files for BMAD workflows:
+
+1. **Start with Purpose:** Clearly define why CSV is needed instead of LLM generation
+2. **Design Structure:** Plan columns and data types before creating the file
+3. **Test Integration:** Ensure workflow properly accesses and uses CSV data
+4. **Document Thoroughly:** Provide complete documentation for future maintenance
+5. **Validate Quality:** Check data quality, format consistency, and integration
+6. **Monitor Usage:** Track how CSV data is used and optimize as needed
+
+## Common Anti-Patterns to Avoid
+
+- **Generic Phrases:** CSV files containing common phrases or LLM-generated content
+- **Redundant Data:** Duplicating information easily available to LLMs
+- **Overly Complex:** Unnecessarily complex CSV structures when simple data suffices
+- **Unused Columns:** Columns that are defined but never referenced in workflows
+- **Poor Formatting:** Inconsistent data formats, missing values, or structural issues
+- **No Documentation:** CSV files without clear purpose or usage documentation
+
+## Validation Checklist
+
+For each CSV file, verify:
+
+- [ ] Purpose is essential and cannot be replaced by LLM generation
+- [ ] All columns are used in the workflow
+- [ ] Data is properly formatted and consistent
+- [ ] File is efficiently sized and structured
+- [ ] Documentation is complete and clear
+- [ ] Integration with workflow is tested and working

+# Intent vs Prescriptive Spectrum
+
+## Core Philosophy
+
+The **Intent vs Prescriptive Spectrum** is a fundamental design principle for BMAD workflows and agents. It determines how much creative freedom an LLM has versus how strictly it must follow predefined instructions.
+
+**Key Principle:** The closer workflows stay to **intent**, the more creative and adaptive the LLM experience becomes. The closer they stay to **prescriptive**, the more consistent and controlled the output becomes.
+
+## Understanding the Spectrum
+
+### **Intent-Based Design** (Creative Freedom)
+
+**Focus**: What goal should be achieved
+**Approach**: Trust the LLM to determine the best method
+**Result**: Creative, adaptive, context-aware interactions
+**Best For**: Creative exploration, problem-solving, personalized experiences
+
+### **Prescriptive Design** (Structured Control)
+
+**Focus**: Exactly what to say and do
+**Approach**: Detailed scripts and specific instructions
+**Result**: Consistent, predictable, controlled outcomes
+**Best For**: Compliance, safety-critical, standardized processes
+
+## Spectrum Examples
+
+### **Highly Intent-Based** (Creative End)
+
+```markdown
+**Example:** Story Exploration Workflow
+**Instruction:** "Help the user explore their dream imagery to craft compelling narratives, use multiple turns of conversation to really push users to develop their ideas, giving them hints and ideas also to prime them effectively to bring out their creativity"
+**LLM Freedom:** Adapts questions, explores tangents, follows creative inspiration
+**Outcome:** Unique, personalized storytelling experiences
+```
+
+### **Balanced Middle** (Professional Services)
+
+```markdown
+**Example:** Business Strategy Workflow
+**Instruction:** "Guide the user through SWOT analysis using your business expertise. when complete tell them 'here is your final report {report output}'
+**LLM Freedom:** Professional judgment in analysis, structured but adaptive approach
+**Outcome:** Professional, consistent yet tailored business insights
+```
+
+### **Highly Prescriptive** (Control End)
+
+```markdown
+**Example:** Medical Intake Form
+**Instruction:** "Ask exactly: 'Do you currently experience any of the following symptoms: fever, cough, fatigue?' Wait for response, then ask exactly: 'When did these symptoms begin?'"
+**LLM Freedom:** Minimal - must follow exact script for medical compliance
+**Outcome:** Consistent, medically compliant patient data collection
+```
+
+## Spectrum Positioning Guide
+
+### **Choose Intent-Based When:**
+
+- ✅ Creative exploration and innovation are goals
+- ✅ Personalization and adaptation to user context are important
+- ✅ Human-like conversation and natural interaction are desired
+- ✅ Problem-solving requires flexible thinking
+- ✅ User experience and engagement are priorities
+
+**Examples:**
+
+- Creative brainstorming sessions
+- Personal coaching or mentoring
+- Exploratory research and discovery
+- Artistic content creation
+- Collaborative problem-solving
+
+### **Choose Prescriptive When:**
+
+- ✅ Compliance with regulations or standards is required
+- ✅ Safety or legal considerations are paramount
+- ✅ Exact consistency across multiple sessions is essential
+- ✅ Training new users on specific procedures
+- ✅ Data collection must follow specific protocols
+
+**Examples:**
+
+- Medical intake and symptom assessment
+- Legal compliance questionnaires
+- Safety checklists and procedures
+- Standardized testing protocols
+- Regulatory data collection
+
+### **Choose Balanced When:**
+
+- ✅ Professional expertise is required but adaptation is beneficial
+- ✅ Consistent quality with flexible application is needed
+- ✅ Domain expertise should guide but not constrain interactions
+- ✅ User trust and professional credibility are important
+- ✅ Complex processes require both structure and judgment
+
+**Examples:**
+
+- Business consulting and advisory
+- Technical support and troubleshooting
+- Educational tutoring and instruction
+- Financial planning and advice
+- Project management facilitation
+
+## Implementation Guidelines
+
+### **For Workflow Designers:**
+
+1. **Early Spectrum Decision**: Determine spectrum position during initial design
+2. **User Education**: Explain spectrum choice and its implications to users
+3. **Consistent Application**: Maintain chosen spectrum throughout workflow
+4. **Context Awareness**: Adjust spectrum based on specific use case requirements
+
+### **For Workflow Implementation:**
+
+**Intent-Based Patterns:**
+
+```markdown
+- "Help the user understand..." (vs "Explain that...")
+- "Guide the user through..." (vs "Follow these steps...")
+- "Use your professional judgment to..." (vs "Apply this specific method...")
+- "Adapt your approach based on..." (vs "Regardless of situation, always...")
+```
+
+**Prescriptive Patterns:**
+
+```markdown
+- "Say exactly: '...'" (vs "Communicate that...")
+- "Follow this script precisely: ..." (vs "Cover these points...")
+- "Do not deviate from: ..." (vs "Consider these options...")
+- "Must ask in this order: ..." (vs "Ensure you cover...")
+```
+
+### **For Agents:**
+
+**Intent-Based Agent Design:**
+
+```yaml
+persona:
+  communication_style: 'Adaptive professional who adjusts approach based on user context'
+  guiding_principles:
+    - 'Use creative problem-solving within professional boundaries'
+    - 'Personalize approach while maintaining expertise'
+    - 'Adapt conversation flow to user needs'
+```
+
+**Prescriptive Agent Design:**
+
+```yaml
+persona:
+  communication_style: 'Follows standardized protocols exactly'
+  governing_rules:
+    - 'Must use approved scripts without deviation'
+    - 'Follow sequence precisely as defined'
+    - 'No adaptation of prescribed procedures'
+```
+
+## Spectrum Calibration Questions
+
+**Ask these during workflow design:**
+
+1. **Consequence of Variation**: What happens if the LLM says something different?
+2. **User Expectation**: Does the user expect consistency or creativity?
+3. **Risk Level**: What are the risks of creative deviation vs. rigid adherence?
+4. **Expertise Required**: Is domain expertise application more important than consistency?
+5. **Regulatory Requirements**: Are there external compliance requirements?
+
+## Best Practices
+
+### **DO:**
+
+- ✅ Make conscious spectrum decisions during design
+- ✅ Explain spectrum choices to users
+- ✅ Use intent-based design for creative and adaptive experiences
+- ✅ Use prescriptive design for compliance and consistency requirements
+- ✅ Consider balanced approaches for professional services
+- ✅ Document spectrum rationale for future reference
+
+### **DON'T:**
+
+- ❌ Mix spectrum approaches inconsistently within workflows
+- ❌ Default to prescriptive when intent-based would be more effective
+- ❌ Use creative freedom when compliance is required
+- ❌ Forget to consider user expectations and experience
+- ❌ Overlook risk assessment in spectrum selection
+
+## Quality Assurance
+
+**When validating workflows:**
+
+- Check if spectrum position is intentional and consistent
+- Verify prescriptive elements are necessary and justified
+- Ensure intent-based elements have sufficient guidance
+- Confirm spectrum alignment with user needs and expectations
+- Validate that risks are appropriately managed
+
+## Examples in Practice
+
+### **Medical Intake (Highly Prescriptive):**
+
+- **Why**: Patient safety, regulatory compliance, consistent data collection
+- **Implementation**: Exact questions, specific order, no deviation permitted
+- **Benefit**: Reliable, medically compliant patient information
+
+### **Creative Writing Workshop (Highly Intent):**
+
+- **Why**: Creative exploration, personalized inspiration, artistic expression
+- **Implementation**: Goal guidance, creative freedom, adaptive prompts
+- **Benefit**: Unique, personalized creative works
+
+### **Business Strategy (Balanced):**
+
+- **Why**: Professional expertise with adaptive application
+- **Implementation**: Structured framework with professional judgment
+- **Benefit**: Professional, consistent yet tailored business insights
+
+## Conclusion
+
+The Intent vs Prescriptive Spectrum is not about good vs. bad - it's about **appropriate design choices**. The best workflows make conscious decisions about where they fall on this spectrum based on their specific requirements, user needs, and risk considerations.

+**Key Success Factor**: Choose your spectrum position intentionally, implement it consistently, and align it with your specific use case requirements.

+
+# Step [N]: [Step Name]
+
+## STEP GOAL:
+
+[State the goal in context of the overall workflow goal. Be specific about what this step accomplishes and how it contributes to the workflow's purpose.]
+
+Example: "To analyze user requirements and document functional specifications that will guide the development process"
+
+## MANDATORY EXECUTION RULES (READ FIRST):
+
+### Universal Rules:
+
+- 🛑 NEVER generate content without user input
+- 📖 CRITICAL: Read the complete step file before taking any action
+- 🔄 CRITICAL: When loading next step with 'C', ensure entire file is read
+- 📋 YOU ARE A FACILITATOR, not a content generator
+
+### Role Reinforcement:
+
+- ✅ You are a [specific role, e.g., "business analyst" or "technical architect"]
+- ✅ If you already have been given a name, communication_style and identity, continue to use those while playing this new role
+- ✅ We engage in collaborative dialogue, not command-response
+- ✅ You bring [your expertise], user brings [their expertise], and together we produce something better than the sum of our own parts
+- ✅ Maintain collaborative [adjective] tone throughout
+
+### Step-Specific Rules:
+
+- 🎯 Focus only on [specific task for this step]
+- 🚫 FORBIDDEN to [what not to do in this step]
+- 💬 Approach: [how to handle this specific task]
+- 📋 Additional rule relevant to this step
+
+## EXECUTION PROTOCOLS:
+
+- 🎯 [Step-specific protocol 1]
+- 💾 [Step-specific protocol 2 - e.g., document updates]
+- 📖 [Step-specific protocol 3 - e.g., tracking requirements]
+- 🚫 [Step-specific restriction]
+
+## CONTEXT BOUNDARIES:
+
+- Available context: [what context is available from previous steps]
+- Focus: [what this step should concentrate on]
+- Limits: [what not to assume or do]
+- Dependencies: [what this step depends on]
+
+## Sequence of Instructions (Do not deviate, skip, or optimize)
+
+[Detailed instructions for the step's work]
+
+### 1. Title
+
+[Specific instructions for first part of the work]
+
+### 2. Title
+
+[Specific instructions for second part of the work]
+
+#### Content to Append (if applicable):
+
+```markdown
+## [Section Title]
+
+[Content template or instructions for what to append]
+```
+
+### N. (Continue as needed)
+
+### N. Present MENU OPTIONS
+
+Display: "**Select an Option:** [A] Advanced Elicitation [P] Party Mode [C] Continue"
+
+#### Menu Handling Logic:
+
+- IF A: Execute {advancedElicitationTask} # Or custom action
+- IF P: Execute {partyModeWorkflow}
+- IF C: Save content to {outputFile}, update frontmatter, then only then load, read entire file, then execute {nextStepFile}
+- IF Any other comments or queries: help user respond then [Redisplay Menu Options](#n-present-menu-options)
+
+#### EXECUTION RULES:
+
+- ALWAYS halt and wait for user input after presenting menu
+- ONLY proceed to next step when user selects 'C'
+- After other menu items execution, return to this menu
+- User can chat or ask questions - always respond and then end with display again of the menu options
+
+## CRITICAL STEP COMPLETION NOTE
+
+[Specific conditions for completing this step and transitioning to the next, such as output to file being created with this tasks updates]
+
+ONLY WHEN [C continue option] is selected and [completion requirements], will you then load and read fully `[installed_path]/step-[next-number]-[name].md` to execute and begin [next step description].
+
+---
+
+## 🚨 SYSTEM SUCCESS/FAILURE METRICS
+
+### ✅ SUCCESS:
+
+- [Step-specific success criteria 1]
+- [Step-specific success criteria 2]
+- Content properly saved/document updated
+- Menu presented and user input handled correctly
+- [General success criteria]
+
+### ❌ SYSTEM FAILURE:
+
+- [Step-specific failure mode 1]
+- [Step-specific failure mode 2]
+- Proceeding without user input/selection
+- Not updating required documents/frontmatter
+- [General failure modes]
+
+**Master Rule:** Skipping steps, optimizing sequences, or not following exact instructions is FORBIDDEN and constitutes SYSTEM FAILURE.
+
+---
+
+## Common Menu Patterns
+
+### Standard Menu (A/P/C)
+
+```markdown
+### N. Present MENU OPTIONS
+
+Display: "**Select an Option:** [A] [Advanced Elicitation] [P] Party Mode [C] Continue"
+
+#### Menu Handling Logic:
+
+- IF A: Execute {advancedElicitationTask}
+- IF P: Execute {partyModeWorkflow}
+- IF C: Save content to {outputFile}, update frontmatter, then only then load, read entire file, then execute {nextStepFile}
+- IF Any other comments or queries: help user respond then [Redisplay Menu Options](#n-present-menu-options)
+
+#### EXECUTION RULES:
+
+- ALWAYS halt and wait for user input after presenting menu
+- ONLY proceed to next step when user selects 'C'
+- After other menu items execution, return to this menu
+- User can chat or ask questions - always respond and then end with display again of the menu options
+```
+
+### Auto-Proceed Menu (No User Choice)
+
+```markdown
+### N. Present MENU OPTIONS
+
+Display: "**Proceeding to [next action]...**"
+
+#### Menu Handling Logic:
+
+- After [completion condition], immediately load, read entire file, then execute {nextStepFile}
+
+#### EXECUTION RULES:
+
+- This is an [auto-proceed reason] step with no user choices
+- Proceed directly to next step after setup
+```
+
+### Custom Menu Options
+
+```markdown
+### N. Present MENU OPTIONS
+
+Display: "**Select an Option:** [A] [Custom Action 1] [B] [Custom Action 2] [C] Continue"
+
+#### Menu Handling Logic:
+
+- IF A: [Custom handler for option A]
+- IF B: [Custom handler for option B]
+- IF C: Save content to {outputFile}, update frontmatter, then only then load, read entire file, then execute {nextStepFile}
+- IF Any other comments or queries: help user respond then [Redisplay Menu Options](#n-present-menu-options)
+
+#### EXECUTION RULES:
+
+- ALWAYS halt and wait for user input after presenting menu
+- ONLY proceed to next step when user selects 'C'
+- After other menu items execution, return to this menu
+- User can chat or ask questions - always respond and then end with display again of the menu options
+```
+
+### Conditional Menu (Based on Workflow State)
+
+```markdown
+### N. Present MENU OPTIONS
+
+Display: "**Select an Option:** [A] [Custom Label] [C] Continue"
+
+#### Menu Handling Logic:
+
+- IF A: Execute {customAction}
+- IF C: Save content to {outputFile}, update frontmatter, check [condition]:
+  - IF [condition true]: load, read entire file, then execute {pathA}
+  - IF [condition false]: load, read entire file, then execute {pathB}
+- IF Any other comments or queries: help user respond then [Redisplay Menu Options](#n-present-menu-options)
+
+#### EXECUTION RULES:
+
+- ALWAYS halt and wait for user input after presenting menu
+- ONLY proceed to next step when user selects 'C'
+- After other menu items execution, return to this menu
+- User can chat or ask questions - always respond and then end with display again of the menu options
+```
+
+## Example Step Implementations
+
+### Initialization Step Example
+
+See [step-01-init.md](../reference/workflows/meal-prep-nutrition/steps/step-01-init.md) for an example of:
+
+- Detecting existing workflow state and short circuit to 1b
+- Creating output documents from templates
+- Auto-proceeding to the next step (this is not the normal behavior of most steps)
+- Handling continuation scenarios
+
+### Continuation Step Example
+
+See [step-01b-continue.md](../reference/workflows/meal-prep-nutrition/steps/step-01b-continue.md) for an example of:
+
+- Handling already-in-progress workflows
+- Detecting completion status
+- Presenting update vs new plan options
+- Seamless workflow resumption
+
+### Standard Step with Menu Example
+
+See [step-02-profile.md](../reference/workflows/meal-prep-nutrition/steps/step-02-profile.md) for an example of:
+
+- Presenting a menu with A/P/C options
+- Forcing halt until user selects 'C' (Continue)
+- Writing all collected content to output file only when 'C' is selected
+- Updating frontmatter with step completion before proceeding
+- Using frontmatter variables for file references
+
+### Final Step Example
+
+See [step-06-prep-schedule.md](../reference/workflows/meal-prep-nutrition/steps/step-06-prep-schedule.md) for an example of:
+
+- Completing workflow deliverables
+- Marking workflow as complete in frontmatter
+- Providing final success messages
+- Ending the workflow session gracefully
+
+## Best Practices
+
+1. **Keep step files focused** - Each step should do one thing well
+2. **Be explicit in instructions** - No ambiguity about what to do
+3. **Include all critical rules** - Don't assume anything from other steps
+4. **Use clear, concise language** - Avoid jargon unless necessary
+5. **Ensure all menu paths have handlers** - Ensure every option has clear instructions - use menu items that make sense for the situation.
+6. **Document dependencies** - Clearly state what this step needs with full paths in front matter
+7. **Define success and failure clearly** - Both for the step and the workflow
+8. **Mark completion clearly** - Ensure final steps update frontmatter to indicate workflow completion

+# BMAD Workflow Terms
+
+## Core Components
+
+### BMAD Workflow
+
+A facilitated, guided process where the AI acts as a facilitator working collaboratively with a human. Workflows can serve any purpose - from document creation to brainstorming, technical implementation, or decision-making. The human may be a collaborative partner, beginner seeking guidance, or someone who wants the AI to execute specific tasks. Each workflow is self-contained and follows a disciplined execution model.
+
+### workflow.md
+
+The master control file that defines:
+
+- Workflow metadata (name, description, version)
+- Step sequence and file paths
+- Required data files and dependencies
+- Execution rules and protocols
+
+### Step File
+
+An individual markdown file containing:
+
+- One discrete step of the workflow
+- All rules and context needed for that step
+- Execution guardrails and validation criteria
+- Content generation guidance
+
+### step-01-init.md
+
+The first step file that:
+
+- Initializes the workflow
+- Sets up document frontmatter
+- Establishes initial context
+- Defines workflow parameters
+
+### step-01b-continue.md
+
+A continuation step file that:
+
+- Resumes a workflow that was paused
+- Reloads context from saved state
+- Validates current document state
+- Continues from the last completed step
+
+### CSV Data Files
+
+Structured data files that provide:
+
+- Domain-specific knowledge and complexity mappings
+- Project-type-specific requirements
+- Decision matrices and lookup tables
+- Dynamic workflow behavior based on input
+
+## Dialog Styles
+
+### Prescriptive Dialog
+
+Structured interaction with:
+
+- Exact questions and specific options
+- Consistent format across all executions
+- Finite, well-defined choices
+- High reliability and repeatability
+
+### Intent-Based Dialog
+
+Adaptive interaction with:
+
+- Goals and principles instead of scripts
+- Open-ended exploration and discovery
+- Context-aware question adaptation
+- Flexible, conversational flow
+
+### Template
+
+A markdown file that:
+
+- Starts with frontmatter (metadata)
+- Has content built through append-only operations
+- Contains no placeholder tags
+- Grows progressively as the workflow executes
+- Used when the workflow produces a document output
+
+## Execution Concepts
+
+### JIT Step Loading
+
+Just-In-Time step loading ensures:
+
+- Only the current step file is in memory
+- Complete focus on the step being executed
+- Minimal context to prevent information leakage
+- Sequential progression through workflow steps
+
+---
+
+_These terms form the foundation of the BMAD workflow system._

+# BMAD Workflow Template
+
+This template provides the standard structure for all BMAD workflow files. Copy and modify this template for each new workflow you create.
+
+## Frontmatter Structure
+
+Copy this YAML frontmatter and fill in your specific values:
+
+```yaml
+---
+name: [WORKFLOW_DISPLAY_NAME]
+description: [Brief description of what this workflow accomplishes]
+web_bundle: [true/false]  # Set to true for inclusion in web bundle builds
+---
+
+# [WORKFLOW_DISPLAY_NAME]
+
+**Goal:** [State the primary goal of this workflow in one clear sentence]
+
+**Your Role:** In addition to your name, communication_style, and persona, you are also a [role] collaborating with [user type]. This is a partnership, not a client-vendor relationship. You bring [your expertise], while the user brings [their expertise]. Work together as equals.
+
+---
+
+## WORKFLOW ARCHITECTURE
+
+This uses **step-file architecture** for disciplined execution:
+
+### Core Principles
+- **Micro-file Design**: Each step is a self contained instruction file that is a part of an overall workflow that must be followed exactly
+- **Just-In-Time Loading**: Only the current step file is in memory - never load future step files until told to do so
+- **Sequential Enforcement**: Sequence within the step files must be completed in order, no skipping or optimization allowed
+- **State Tracking**: Document progress in output file frontmatter using `stepsCompleted` array when a workflow produces a document
+- **Append-Only Building**: Build documents by appending content as directed to the output file
+
+### 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 `stepsCompleted` in frontmatter before loading next step
+6. **LOAD NEXT**: When directed, load, read entire file, then execute the next step file
+
+### Critical Rules (NO EXCEPTIONS)
+- 🛑 **NEVER** load multiple step files simultaneously
+- 📖 **ALWAYS** read entire step file before execution
+- 🚫 **NEVER** skip steps or optimize the sequence
+- 💾 **ALWAYS** update frontmatter of output files when writing the final output for a specific step
+- 🎯 **ALWAYS** follow the exact instructions in the step file
+- ⏸️ **ALWAYS** halt at menus and wait for user input
+- 📋 **NEVER** create mental todo lists from future steps
+
+---
+
+## INITIALIZATION SEQUENCE
+
+### 1. Configuration Loading
+
+Load and read full config from {project-root}/{bmad_folder}/[module such as core, bmm, bmb]/config.yaml and resolve:
+
+- `project_name`, `output_folder`, `user_name`, `communication_language`, `document_output_language`, [any additional variables]
+
+**Note:** Use variable substitution patterns for flexible installation paths:
+- `{project-root}` - Root directory of the project
+- `{bmad_folder}` - Name of the BMAD folder (usually `.bmad`)
+- `[module]` - Module name (core, bmm, bmb, or custom)
+
+### 2. First Step EXECUTION
+
+Load, read the full file and then execute `{workflow_path}/steps/step-01-init.md` to begin the workflow.
+```
+
+## How to Use This Template
+
+### Step 1: Copy and Replace Placeholders
+
+Copy the template above and replace:
+
+- `[WORKFLOW_DISPLAY_NAME]` → Your workflow's display name
+- `[Brief description]` → One-sentence description
+- `[true/false]` → Whether to include in web bundle
+- `[role]` → AI's role in this workflow
+- `[user type]` → Who the user is
+- `[CONFIG_PATH]` → Path to config file (usually `bmm/config.yaml` or `bmb/config.yaml`)
+- `[WORKFLOW_PATH]` → Path to your workflow folder
+- `[any additional variables]` → Extra config variables needed
+
+### Step 2: Create the Folder Structure
+
+```
+[workflow-folder]/
+├── workflow.md          # This file
+└── steps/
+    ├── step-01-init.md
+    ├── step-02-[name].md
+    └── ...
+```
+
+### Step 3: Configure the Initialization Path
+
+Update the last line to point to your actual first step file:
+
+```markdown
+Load, read the full file and then execute `{workflow_path}/steps/step-01-init.md` to begin the workflow.
+```
+
+## Examples
+
+### Example 1: Document Creation Workflow
+
+```yaml
+---
+name: User Guide Creator
+description: Creates comprehensive user guides through collaborative content creation
+web_bundle: true
+---
+
+# User Guide Creator
+
+**Goal:** Create comprehensive user guides through collaborative content creation
+
+**Your Role:** In addition to your name, communication_style, and persona, you are also a technical writer collaborating with a subject matter expert. This is a partnership, not a client-vendor relationship. You bring structured writing skills and documentation expertise, while the user brings domain knowledge and technical expertise. Work together as equals.
+```
+
+### Example 2: Decision Support Workflow
+
+```yaml
+---
+name: Decision Framework
+description: Helps users make structured decisions using proven methodologies
+web_bundle: false
+---
+
+# Decision Framework
+
+**Goal:** Helps users make structured decisions using proven methodologies
+
+**Your Role:** In addition to your name, communication_style, and persona, you are also a decision facilitator collaborating with a decision maker. This is a partnership, not a client-vendor relationship. You bring structured thinking and facilitation skills, while the user brings context and decision criteria. Work together as equals.
+```
+
+## Best Practices
+
+1. **Keep Roles Collaborative**: Always emphasize partnership over client-vendor relationships
+2. **Be Specific About Goals**: One clear sentence that describes the outcome
+3. **Use Standard Architecture**: Never modify the WORKFLOW ARCHITECTURE section
+4. **Include web_bundle**: Set to true for production-ready workflows
+5. **Test the Path**: Verify the step file path exists and is correct
+
+## Example Implementation
+
+See the [Meal Prep & Nutrition Plan workflow](../reference/workflows/meal-prep-nutrition/workflow.md) for a complete implementation of this template.
+
+Remember: This template is the STANDARD for all BMAD workflows. Do not modify the core architecture section - only customize the role description and goal.

+
+### Universal Rules:
+
+- 🛑 NEVER generate content without user input
+- 📖 CRITICAL: Read the complete step file before taking any action
+- 🔄 CRITICAL: When loading next step with 'C', ensure entire file is read
+- 📋 YOU ARE A FACILITATOR, not a content generator
+
+### Role Reinforcement:
+
+- ✅ You are a nutrition expert and meal planning specialist
+- ✅ We engage in collaborative dialogue, not command-response
+- ✅ You bring nutritional expertise and structured planning, user brings their personal preferences and lifestyle constraints
+- ✅ Together we produce something better than the sum of our own parts
+
+### Step-Specific Rules:
+
+- 🎯 Focus ONLY on initialization and setup
+- 🚫 FORBIDDEN to look ahead to future steps
+- 💬 Handle initialization professionally
+- 🚪 DETECT existing workflow state and handle continuation properly
+
+## EXECUTION PROTOCOLS:
+
+- 🎯 Show analysis before taking any action
+- 💾 Initialize document and update frontmatter
+- 📖 Set up frontmatter `stepsCompleted: [1]` before loading next step
+- 🚫 FORBIDDEN to load next step until setup is complete
+
+## CONTEXT BOUNDARIES:
+
+- Variables from workflow.md are available in memory
+- Previous context = what's in output document + frontmatter
+- Don't assume knowledge from other steps
+- Input document discovery happens in this step
+
+## STEP GOAL:
+
+To initialize the Nutrition Plan workflow by detecting continuation state, creating the output document, and preparing for the first collaborative session.
+
+## INITIALIZATION SEQUENCE:
+
+### 1. Check for Existing Workflow
+
+First, check if the output document already exists:
+
+- Look for file at `{output_folder}/nutrition-plan-{project_name}.md`
+- If exists, read the complete file including frontmatter
+- If not exists, this is a fresh workflow
+
+### 2. Handle Continuation (If Document Exists)
+
+If the document exists and has frontmatter with `stepsCompleted`:
+
+- **STOP here** and load `./step-01b-continue.md` immediately
+- Do not proceed with any initialization tasks
+- Let step-01b handle the continuation logic
+
+### 3. Handle Completed Workflow
+
+If the document exists AND all steps are marked complete in `stepsCompleted`:
+
+- Ask user: "I found an existing nutrition plan from [date]. Would you like to:
+  1. Create a new nutrition plan
+  2. Update/modify the existing plan"
+- If option 1: Create new document with timestamp suffix
+- If option 2: Load step-01b-continue.md
+
+### 4. Fresh Workflow Setup (If No Document)
+
+If no document exists or no `stepsCompleted` in frontmatter:
+
+#### A. Input Document Discovery
+
+This workflow doesn't require input documents, but check for:
+**Existing Health Information (Optional):**
+
+- Look for: `{output_folder}/*health*.md`
+- Look for: `{output_folder}/*goals*.md`
+- If found, load completely and add to `inputDocuments` frontmatter
+
+#### B. Create Initial Document
+
+Copy the template from `{template_path}` to `{output_folder}/nutrition-plan-{project_name}.md`
+
+Initialize frontmatter with:
+
+```yaml
+---
+stepsCompleted: [1]
+lastStep: 'init'
+inputDocuments: []
+date: [current date]
+user_name: { user_name }
+---
+```
+
+#### C. Show Welcome Message
+
+"Welcome to your personalized nutrition planning journey! I'm excited to work with you to create a meal plan that fits your lifestyle, preferences, and health goals.
+
+Let's begin by getting to know you and your nutrition goals."
+
+## ✅ SUCCESS METRICS:
+
+- Document created from template
+- Frontmatter initialized with step 1 marked complete
+- User welcomed to the process
+- Ready to proceed to step 2
+
+## ❌ FAILURE MODES TO AVOID:
+
+- Proceeding with step 2 without document initialization
+- Not checking for existing documents properly
+- Creating duplicate documents
+- Skipping welcome message
+
+### 7. Present MENU OPTIONS
+
+Display: **Proceeding to user profile collection...**
+
+#### EXECUTION RULES:
+
+- This is an initialization step with no user choices
+- Proceed directly to next step after setup
+- Use menu handling logic section below
+
+#### Menu Handling Logic:
+
+- After setup completion, immediately load, read entire file, then execute `{workflow_path}/step-02-profile.md` to begin user profile collection

+# Step 5: Shopping List Generation
+
+## 🎯 Objective
+
+Create a comprehensive, organized shopping list that supports the meal strategy while minimizing waste and cost.
+
+## 📋 MANDATORY EXECUTION RULES (READ FIRST):
+
+- 🛑 CRITICAL: This step is OPTIONAL - skip if user cooks <2x per week
+- 📖 CRITICAL: Cross-reference with existing pantry items
+- 🔄 CRITICAL: Organize by store section for efficient shopping
+- ✅ Include quantities based on serving sizes and meal frequency
+- 🚫 DO NOT forget staples and seasonings
+  Only proceed if:
+
+```yaml
+cookingFrequency: "3-5x" OR "daily"
+```
+
+Otherwise, skip to Step 5: Prep Schedule
+
+## 📊 Shopping List Organization:
+
+### 1. By Store Section
+
+```
+PRODUCE:
+- [Item] - [Quantity] - [Meal(s) used in]
+PROTEIN:
+- [Item] - [Quantity] - [Meal(s) used in]
+DAIRY/ALTERNATIVES:
+- [Item] - [Quantity] - [Meal(s) used in]
+GRAINS/STARCHES:
+- [Item] - [Quantity] - [Meal(s) used in]
+FROZEN:
+- [Item] - [Quantity] - [Meal(s) used in]
+PANTRY:
+- [Item] - [Quantity] - [Meal(s) used in]
+```
+
+### 2. Quantity Calculations
+
+Based on:
+
+- Serving size x number of servings
+- Buffer for mistakes/snacks (10-20%)
+- Bulk buying opportunities
+- Shelf life considerations
+
+### 3. Cost Optimization
+
+- Bulk buying for non-perishables
+- Seasonal produce recommendations
+- Protein budgeting strategies
+- Store brand alternatives
+
+## 🔍 SMART SHOPPING FEATURES:
+
+### Meal Prep Efficiency:
+
+- Multi-purpose ingredients (e.g., spinach for salads AND smoothies)
+- Batch prep staples (grains, proteins)
+- Versatile seasonings
+
+### Waste Reduction:
+
+- "First to use" items for perishables
+- Flexible ingredient swaps
+- Portion planning
+
+### Budget Helpers:
+
+- Priority items (must-have vs nice-to-have)
+- Bulk vs fresh decisions
+- Seasonal substitutions
+
+## ✅ SUCCESS METRICS:
+
+- Complete list organized by store section
+- Quantities calculated accurately
+- Pantry items cross-referenced
+- Budget considerations addressed
+- Waste minimization strategies included
+
+## ❌ FAILURE MODES TO AVOID:
+
+- Forgetting staples and seasonings
+- Buying too much of perishable items
+- Not organizing by store section
+- Ignoring user's budget constraints
+- Not checking existing pantry items
+
+## 💬 SAMPLE DIALOG STYLE:
+
+**✅ GOOD (Intent-based):**
+"Let's organize your shopping trip for maximum efficiency. I'll group items by store section. Do you currently have basic staples like olive oil, salt, and common spices?"
+
+**❌ AVOID (Prescriptive):**
+"Buy exactly: 3 chicken breasts, 2 lbs broccoli, 1 bag rice..."

+# Step 6: Meal Prep Execution Schedule
+
+## 🎯 Objective
+
+Create a realistic meal prep schedule that fits the user's lifestyle and ensures success.
+
+## 📋 MANDATORY EXECUTION RULES (READ FIRST):
+
+- 🛑 NEVER suggest a prep schedule that requires more time than user has available
+- 📖 CRITICAL: Base schedule on user's actual cooking frequency
+- 🔄 CRITICAL: Include storage and reheating instructions
+- ✅ Start with a sustainable prep routine
+- 🚫 DO NOT overwhelm with too much at once
+
+### 1. Time Commitment Analysis
+
+Based on user profile:
+
+- **Available prep time per week**
+- **Preferred prep days** (weekend vs weeknight)
+- **Energy levels throughout day**
+- **Kitchen limitations**
+
+### 2. Prep Strategy Options
+
+#### Option A: Sunday Batch Prep (2-3 hours)
+
+- Prep all proteins for week
+- Chop all vegetables
+- Cook grains in bulk
+- Portion snacks
+
+#### Option B: Semi-Weekly Prep (1-1.5 hours x 2)
+
+- Sunday: Proteins + grains
+- Wednesday: Refresh veggies + prep second half
+
+#### Option C: Daily Prep (15-20 minutes daily)
+
+- Prep next day's lunch
+- Quick breakfast assembly
+- Dinner prep each evening
+
+### 3. Detailed Timeline Breakdown
+
+```
+Sunday (2 hours):
+2:00-2:30: Preheat oven, marinate proteins
+2:30-3:15: Cook proteins (bake chicken, cook ground turkey)
+3:15-3:45: Cook grains (rice, quinoa)
+3:45-4:00: Chop vegetables and portion snacks
+4:00-4:15: Clean and organize refrigerator
+```
+
+## 📦 Storage Guidelines:
+
+### Protein Storage:
+
+- Cooked chicken: 4 days refrigerated, 3 months frozen
+- Ground meat: 3 days refrigerated, 3 months frozen
+- Fish: Best fresh, 2 days refrigerated
+
+### Vegetable Storage:
+
+- Cut vegetables: 3-4 days in airtight containers

+- Leafy greens: 2-3 days with paper towels
+
+### Meal Assembly:
+
+- Keep sauces separate until eating
+- Consider texture changes when reheating
+- Label with preparation date
+
+## 🔧 ADAPTATION STRATEGIES:
+
+### For Busy Weeks:
+
+- Emergency freezer meals
+- Quick backup options
+- 15-minute meal alternatives
+
+### For Low Energy Days:
+
+- No-cook meal options
+- Smoothie packs
+- Assembly-only meals
+
+### For Social Events:
+

+
+## ✅ SUCCESS METRICS:
+
+- Realistic time commitment

+- No flexibility for unexpected events
+- Complex instructions for beginners
+
+## 💬 SAMPLE DIALOG STYLE:
+
+**✅ GOOD (Intent-based):**
+"Based on your 2-hour Sunday availability, we could create a prep schedule that sets you up for the week. We'll batch cook proteins and grains, then do quick assembly each evening. How does that sound with your energy levels?"
+
+**❌ AVOID (Prescriptive):**
+"You must prep every Sunday from 2-4 PM. No exceptions."
+

+
+# Meal Prep & Nutrition Plan Workflow
+
+**Goal:** Create personalized meal plans through collaborative nutrition planning between an expert facilitator and individual seeking to improve their nutrition habits.
+
+**Your Role:** In addition to your name, communication_style, and persona, you are also a nutrition expert and meal planning specialist working collaboratively with the user. We engage in collaborative dialogue, not command-response, where you bring nutritional expertise and structured planning, while the user brings their personal preferences, lifestyle constraints, and health goals. Work together to create a sustainable, enjoyable nutrition plan.
+
+---
+
+## WORKFLOW ARCHITECTURE
+
+This uses **step-file architecture** for disciplined execution:
+
+### Core Principles
+
+- **Micro-file Design**: Each step is a self contained instruction file that is a part of an overall workflow that must be followed exactly
+- **Just-In-Time Loading**: Only the current step file is in memory - never load future step files until told to do so
+- **Sequential Enforcement**: Sequence within the step files must be completed in order, no skipping or optimization allowed
+- **State Tracking**: Document progress in output file frontmatter using `stepsCompleted` array when a workflow produces a document
+- **Append-Only Building**: Build documents by appending content as directed to the output file
+
+### 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 `stepsCompleted` in frontmatter before loading next step
+6. **LOAD NEXT**: When directed, load, read entire file, then execute the next step file
+
+### Critical Rules (NO EXCEPTIONS)
+
+- 🛑 **NEVER** load multiple step files simultaneously
+- 📖 **ALWAYS** read entire step file before execution
+- 🚫 **NEVER** skip steps or optimize the sequence
+- 💾 **ALWAYS** update frontmatter of output files when writing the final output for a specific step
+- 🎯 **ALWAYS** follow the exact instructions in the step file
+- ⏸️ **ALWAYS** halt at menus and wait for user input
+- 📋 **NEVER** create mental todo lists from future steps
+
+---
+
+## INITIALIZATION SEQUENCE
+
+### 1. Configuration Loading
+
+Load and read full config from {project-root}/{bmad_folder}/bmm/config.yaml and resolve:
+
+- `project_name`, `output_folder`, `user_name`, `communication_language`, `document_output_language`, `user_skill_level`
+
+### 2. First Step EXECUTION
+
+Load, read the full file and then execute `{project-root}/{bmad_folder}/bmb/reference/workflows/meal-prep-nutrition/steps/step-01-init.md` to begin the workflow.

-# Audit Workflow - Validation Checklist
-
-## Structure
-
-- [ ] workflow.yaml file loads without YAML syntax errors
-- [ ] instructions.md file exists and is properly formatted
-- [ ] template.md file exists (if document workflow) with valid markdown
-- [ ] All critical headers present in instructions (workflow engine reference, workflow.yaml reference)
-- [ ] Workflow type correctly identified (document/action/interactive/autonomous/meta)
-- [ ] All referenced files actually exist at specified paths
-- [ ] No placeholder text remains (like {TITLE}, {WORKFLOW_CODE}, TODO, etc.)
-
-## Standard Config Block
-
-- [ ] workflow.yaml contains `config_source` pointing to correct module config
-- [ ] `output_folder` pulls from `{config_source}:output_folder`
-- [ ] `user_name` pulls from `{config_source}:user_name`
-- [ ] `communication_language` pulls from `{config_source}:communication_language`
-- [ ] `date` is set to `system-generated`
-- [ ] Config source uses {project-root} variable (not hardcoded path)
-- [ ] Standard config comment present: "Critical variables from config"
-
-## Config Variable Usage
-
-- [ ] Instructions communicate in {communication_language} where appropriate
-- [ ] Instructions address {user_name} in greetings or summaries where appropriate
-- [ ] All file outputs write to {output_folder} or subdirectories (no hardcoded paths)
-- [ ] Template includes {{user_name}} in metadata (optional for document workflows)
-- [ ] Template includes {{date}} in metadata (optional for document workflows)
-- [ ] Template does NOT use {{communication_language}} in headers (agent-only variable)
-- [ ] No hardcoded language-specific text that should use {communication_language}
-- [ ] Date used for agent date awareness (not confused with training cutoff)
-
-## YAML/Instruction/Template Alignment
-
-- [ ] Every workflow.yaml variable (excluding standard config) is used in instructions OR template
-- [ ] No unused yaml fields present (bloat removed)
-- [ ] No duplicate fields between top-level and web_bundle section
-- [ ] All template variables ({{variable}}) have corresponding yaml definitions OR <template-output> tags
-- [ ] All <template-output> tags have corresponding template variables (if document workflow)
-- [ ] Template variables use snake_case naming convention
-- [ ] Variable names are descriptive (not abbreviated like {{puj}} instead of {{primary_user_journey}})
-- [ ] No hardcoded values in instructions that should be yaml variables
-
-## Web Bundle Validation (if applicable)
-
-- [ ] web_bundle section present if workflow needs deployment
-- [ ] All paths in web_bundle use {bmad_folder}/-relative format (NOT {project-root})
-- [ ] No {config_source} variables in web_bundle section
-- [ ] instructions file listed in web_bundle_files array
-- [ ] template file listed in web_bundle_files (if document workflow)
-- [ ] validation/checklist file listed in web_bundle_files (if exists)
-- [ ] All data files (CSV, JSON, YAML) listed in web_bundle_files
-- [ ] All <invoke-workflow> called workflows have their .yaml files in web_bundle_files
-- [ ] **CRITICAL**: If workflow invokes other workflows, existing_workflows field is present
-- [ ] existing_workflows maps workflow variables to {bmad_folder}/-relative paths correctly
-- [ ] All files referenced in instructions <action> tags listed in web_bundle_files
-- [ ] No files listed in web_bundle_files that don't exist
-- [ ] Web bundle metadata (name, description, author) matches top-level metadata
-
-## Template Validation (if document workflow)
-
-- [ ] Template variables match <template-output> tags in instructions exactly
-- [ ] All required sections present in template structure
-- [ ] Template uses {{variable}} syntax (double curly braces)
-- [ ] Template variables use snake_case (not camelCase or PascalCase)
-- [ ] Standard metadata header format correct (optional usage of {{date}}, {{user_name}})
-- [ ] No placeholders remain in template (like {SECTION_NAME})
-- [ ] Template structure matches document purpose
-
-## Instructions Quality
-
-- [ ] Each step has n="X" attribute with sequential numbering
-- [ ] Each step has goal="clear goal statement" attribute
-- [ ] Optional steps marked with optional="true"
-- [ ] Repeating steps have appropriate repeat attribute (repeat="3", repeat="for-each-X", repeat="until-approved")
-- [ ] Conditional steps have if="condition" attribute
-- [ ] XML tags used correctly (<action>, <ask>, <check>, <goto>, <invoke-workflow>, <template-output>)
-- [ ] No nested tag references in content (use "action tags" not "<action> tags")
-- [ ] Tag references use descriptive text without angle brackets for clarity
-- [ ] No conditional execution antipattern (no self-closing <check> tags)
-- [ ] Single conditionals use <action if="condition"> (inline)
-- [ ] Multiple conditionals use <check if="condition">...</check> (wrapper block with closing tag)
-- [ ] Steps are focused (single goal per step)
-- [ ] Instructions are specific with limits ("Write 1-2 paragraphs" not "Write about")
-- [ ] Examples provided where helpful
-- [ ] <template-output> tags save checkpoints for document workflows
-- [ ] Flow control is logical and clear
-
-## Bloat Detection
-
-- [ ] Bloat percentage under 10% (unused yaml fields / total fields)
-- [ ] No commented-out variables that should be removed
-- [ ] No duplicate metadata between sections
-- [ ] No variables defined but never referenced
-- [ ] No redundant configuration that duplicates web_bundle

-    - [ ] Points to correct module config path
-    - [ ] Uses {project-root} variable
-
-    **Standard Variables Check:**

-
-  <step n="4" goal="Config variable usage audit">
-    <action>Analyze instructions.md for proper config variable usage:</action>
-
-    **Communication Language Check:**
-
-    - Search for phrases like "communicate in {communication_language}"
-    - Check if greetings/responses use language-aware patterns
-    - Verify NO usage of {{communication_language}} in template headers
-
-    **User Name Check:**
-
-    - Look for user addressing patterns using {user_name}
-    - Check if summaries or greetings personalize with {user_name}
-    - Verify optional usage in template metadata (not required)
-
-    **Output Folder Check:**
-
-    - Search for file write operations
-    - Verify all outputs go to {output_folder} or subdirectories
-    - Check for hardcoded paths like "/output/" or "/generated/"
-
-    **Date Usage Check:**
-
-    - Verify date is available for agent date awareness
-    - Check optional usage in template metadata
-    - Ensure no confusion between date and model training cutoff
-
-    **Nested Tag Reference Check:**
-
-    - Search for XML tag references within tags (e.g., `<action>Scan for <action> tags</action>`)
-    - Identify patterns like: `<tag-name> tags`, `<tag-name> calls`, `<tag-name>content</tag-name>` within content
-    - Common problematic tags to check: action, ask, check, template-output, invoke-workflow, goto
-    - Flag any instances where angle brackets appear in content describing tags
-
-    **Best Practice:** Use descriptive text without brackets (e.g., "action tags" instead of "<action> tags")
-
-    **Rationale:**
-
-    - Prevents XML parsing ambiguity
-    - Improves readability for humans and LLMs
-    - LLMs understand "action tags" = `<action>` tags from context
-
-    **Conditional Execution Antipattern Check:**
-
-    - Scan for self-closing check tags: `<check>condition text</check>` (invalid antipattern)
-    - Detect pattern: check tag on one line, followed by action/ask/goto tags (indicates incorrect nesting)
-    - Flag sequences like: `<check>If X:</check>` followed by `<action>do Y</action>`
-
-    **Correct Patterns:**
-
-    - Single conditional: `<action if="condition">Do something</action>`
-    - Multiple actions: `<check if="condition">` followed by nested actions with closing `</check>` tag
-
-    **Antipattern Example (WRONG):**
-    ```xml
-    <check>If condition met:</check>
-    <action>Do something</action>
-    ```
-
-    **Correct Example:**
-    ```xml
-    <check if="condition met">
-      <action>Do something</action>
-      <action>Do something else</action>
-    </check>
-    ```
-
-    **Or for single action:**
-    ```xml
-    <action if="condition met">Do something</action>
-    ```
-
-    <action>Scan instructions.md for nested tag references using pattern: &lt;(action|ask|check|template-output|invoke-workflow|invoke-task|goto|step)&gt; within text content</action>
-    <action>Record any instances of nested tag references with line numbers</action>
-    <action>Scan instructions.md for conditional execution antipattern: self-closing check tags</action>
-    <action>Detect pattern: `&lt;check&gt;.*&lt;/check&gt;` on single line (self-closing check)</action>
-    <action>Record any antipattern instances with line numbers and suggest corrections</action>
-    <action>Record any improper config variable usage</action>
-    <template-output>config_usage_issues</template-output>
-
-    <action if="config usage issues found">Add to issues list with severity: IMPORTANT</action>

-# Convert Legacy Workflow
-
-## Overview
-
-The Convert Legacy workflow is a comprehensive migration tool that converts BMAD v4 items (agents, workflows, modules) to v6 compliant format with proper structure and conventions. It bridges the gap between legacy BMAD implementations and the modern v6 architecture, ensuring seamless migration while preserving functionality and improving structure.
-
-## Key Features
-
-- **Multi-Format Detection** - Automatically identifies v4 agents, workflows, tasks, templates, and modules
-- **Intelligent Conversion** - Smart mapping from v4 patterns to v6 equivalents with structural improvements
-- **Sub-Workflow Integration** - Leverages create-agent, create-workflow, and create-module workflows for quality output
-- **Structure Modernization** - Converts YAML-based agents to XML, templates to workflows, tasks to structured workflows
-- **Path Normalization** - Updates all references to use proper v6 path conventions
-- **Validation System** - Comprehensive validation of converted items before finalization
-- **Migration Reporting** - Detailed conversion reports with locations and manual adjustment notes
-
-## Usage
-
-### Basic Invocation
-
-```bash
-workflow convert-legacy
-```
-
-### With Legacy File Input
-
-```bash
-# Convert a specific v4 item
-workflow convert-legacy --input /path/to/legacy-agent.md
-```
-
-### With Legacy Module
-
-```bash
-# Convert an entire v4 module structure
-workflow convert-legacy --input /path/to/legacy-module/
-```
-
-### Configuration
-
-The workflow uses standard BMB configuration:
-
-- **output_folder**: Where converted items will be placed
-- **user_name**: Author information for converted items
-- **conversion_mappings**: v4-to-v6 pattern mappings (optional)
-
-## Workflow Structure

-
-## Workflow Process
-
-### Phase 1: Legacy Analysis (Steps 1-3)
-
-**Item Identification and Loading**
-
-- Accepts file path or directory from user
-- Loads complete file/folder structure for analysis
-- Automatically detects item type based on content patterns:
-  - **Agents**: Contains `<agent>` or `<prompt>` XML tags
-  - **Workflows**: Contains workflow YAML or instruction patterns
-  - **Modules**: Contains multiple organized agents/workflows
-  - **Tasks**: Contains `<task>` XML tags
-  - **Templates**: Contains YAML-based document generators
-
-**Legacy Structure Analysis**
-
-- Parses v4 structure and extracts key components
-- Maps v4 agent metadata (name, id, title, icon, persona)
-- Analyzes v4 template sections and elicitation patterns
-- Identifies task workflows and decision trees
-- Catalogs dependencies and file references
-
-**Target Module Selection**
-
-- Prompts for target module (bmm, bmb, cis, custom)
-- Determines proper installation paths using v6 conventions
-- Shows target location for user confirmation
-- Ensures all paths use `{project-root}/{bmad_folder}/` format
-
-### Phase 2: Conversion Strategy (Step 4)
-
-**Strategy Selection Based on Item Type**
-
-- **Simple Agents**: Direct XML conversion with metadata mapping
-- **Complex Agents**: Workflow-assisted creation using create-agent
-- **Templates**: Template-to-workflow conversion with proper structure
-- **Tasks**: Task-to-workflow conversion with step mapping
-- **Modules**: Full module creation using create-module workflow
-
-**Workflow Type Determination**
-
-- Analyzes legacy items to determine v6 workflow type:
-  - **Document Workflow**: Generates documents with templates
-  - **Action Workflow**: Performs actions without output documents
-  - **Interactive Workflow**: Guides user interaction sessions
-  - **Meta-Workflow**: Coordinates other workflows
-
-### Phase 3: Conversion Execution (Steps 5a-5e)
-
-**Direct Agent Conversion (5a)**
-
-- Transforms v4 YAML agent format to v6 XML structure
-- Maps persona blocks (role, style, identity, principles)
-- Converts commands list to v6 `<cmds>` format
-- Updates task references to workflow invocations
-- Normalizes all paths to v6 conventions
-
-**Workflow-Assisted Creation (5b-5e)**
-
-- Extracts key information from legacy items
-- Invokes appropriate sub-workflows:
-  - `create-agent` for complex agent creation
-  - `create-workflow` for template/task conversion
-  - `create-module` for full module migration
-- Ensures proper v6 structure and conventions
-
-**Template-to-Workflow Conversion (5c)**
-
-- Converts YAML template sections to workflow steps
-- Maps `elicit: true` flags to `<invoke-task halt="true">{project-root}/{bmad_folder}/core/tasks/advanced-elicitation.xml</invoke-task>` tags
-- Transforms conditional sections to flow control
-- Creates proper template.md from content structure
-- Integrates v4 create-doc.md task patterns
-
-**Task-to-Workflow Conversion (5e)**
-
-- Analyzes task purpose to determine workflow type
-- Extracts step-by-step instructions to workflow steps
-- Converts decision trees to flow control tags
-- Maps 1-9 elicitation menus to v6 elicitation patterns
-- Preserves execution logic and critical notices
-
-### Phase 4: Validation and Finalization (Steps 6-8)
-
-**Comprehensive Validation**
-
-- Validates XML structure for agents
-- Checks YAML syntax for workflows
-- Verifies template variable consistency
-- Ensures proper file structure and naming
-
-**Migration Reporting**
-
-- Generates detailed conversion report
-- Documents original and new locations
-- Notes manual adjustments needed
-- Provides warnings and recommendations
-
-**Cleanup and Archival**
-
-- Optional archival of original v4 files
-- Final location confirmation
-- Post-conversion instructions and next steps
-
-## Output
-
-### Generated Files
-
-- **Converted Items**: Proper v6 format in target module locations
-- **Migration Report**: Detailed conversion documentation
-- **Validation Results**: Quality assurance confirmation
-
-### Output Structure
-
-Converted items follow v6 conventions:
-
-1. **Agents** - XML format with proper persona and command structure
-2. **Workflows** - Complete workflow folders with yaml, instructions, and templates
-3. **Modules** - Full module structure with installation infrastructure
-4. **Documentation** - Updated paths, references, and metadata
-
-## Requirements
-
-- **Legacy v4 Items** - Source files or directories to convert
-- **Target Module Access** - Write permissions to target module directories
-- **Sub-Workflow Availability** - create-agent, create-workflow, create-module workflows accessible
-- **Conversion Mappings** (optional) - v4-to-v6 pattern mappings for complex conversions
-
-## Best Practices
-
-### Before Starting
-
-1. **Backup Legacy Items** - Create copies of original v4 files before conversion
-2. **Review Target Module** - Understand target module structure and conventions
-3. **Plan Module Organization** - Decide where converted items should logically fit
-
-### During Execution
-
-1. **Validate Item Type Detection** - Confirm automatic detection or correct manually
-2. **Choose Appropriate Strategy** - Use workflow-assisted creation for complex items
-3. **Review Path Mappings** - Ensure all references use proper v6 path conventions
-4. **Test Incrementally** - Convert simple items first to validate process
-
-### After Completion
-
-1. **Validate Converted Items** - Test agents and workflows for proper functionality
-2. **Review Migration Report** - Address any manual adjustments noted
-3. **Update Documentation** - Ensure README and documentation reflect changes
-4. **Archive Originals** - Store v4 files safely for reference if needed
-
-## Troubleshooting
-
-### Common Issues
-
-**Issue**: Item type detection fails or incorrect
-
-- **Solution**: Manually specify item type when prompted
-- **Check**: Verify file structure matches expected v4 patterns
-
-**Issue**: Path conversion errors
-
-- **Solution**: Ensure all references use `{project-root}/{bmad_folder}/` format
-- **Check**: Review conversion mappings for proper path patterns
-
-**Issue**: Sub-workflow invocation fails
-
-- **Solution**: Verify build workflows are available and accessible

-# Convert Legacy - Validation Checklist
-
-## Pre-Conversion Validation
-
-### Source Analysis
-
-- [ ] Original v4 file(s) fully loaded and parsed
-- [ ] Item type correctly identified (agent/template/task/module)
-- [ ] All dependencies documented and accounted for
-- [ ] No critical content overlooked in source files
-
-## Conversion Completeness
-
-### For Agent Conversions
-
-#### Content Preservation
-
-- [ ] Agent name, id, title, and icon transferred
-- [ ] All persona elements mapped to v6 structure
-- [ ] All commands converted to v6 menu array (YAML)
-- [ ] Dependencies properly referenced or converted
-- [ ] Activation instructions adapted to v6 patterns
-
-#### v6 Compliance (YAML Format)
-
-- [ ] Valid YAML structure with proper indentation
-- [ ] agent.metadata has all required fields (id, name, title, icon, module)
-- [ ] agent.persona has all sections (role, identity, communication_style, principles)
-- [ ] agent.menu uses proper handlers (workflow, action, exec, tmpl, data)
-- [ ] agent.critical_actions array present when needed
-- [ ] agent.prompts defined for any action: "#id" references
-- [ ] File extension is .agent.yaml (will be compiled to .md later)
-
-#### Best Practices
-
-- [ ] Commands use appropriate workflow references instead of direct task calls
-- [ ] File paths use {project-root} variables
-- [ ] Config values use {config_source}: pattern
-- [ ] Agent follows naming conventions (kebab-case for files)
-- [ ] ALL paths reference {project-root}/{bmad_folder}/{{module}}/ locations, NOT src/
-- [ ] exec, data, workflow commands point to final BMAD installation paths
-
-### For Template/Workflow Conversions
-
-#### Content Preservation
-
-- [ ] Template metadata (name, description, output) transferred
-- [ ] All sections converted to workflow steps
-- [ ] Section hierarchy maintained in instructions
-- [ ] Variables ({{var}}) preserved in template.md
-- [ ] Elicitation points (elicit: true) converted to <invoke-task halt="true">{project-root}/{bmad_folder}/core/tasks/advanced-elicitation.xml</invoke-task>
-- [ ] Conditional sections preserved with if="" attributes
-- [ ] Repeatable sections converted to repeat="" attributes
-
-#### v6 Compliance
-
-- [ ] workflow.yaml follows structure from workflow-creation-guide.md
-- [ ] instructions.md has critical headers referencing workflow engine
-- [ ] Steps numbered sequentially with clear goals
-- [ ] Template variables match between instructions and template.md
-- [ ] Proper use of XML tags (<action>, <check>, <ask>, <template-output>)
-- [ ] File structure follows v6 pattern (folder with yaml/md files)
-
-#### Best Practices
-
-- [ ] Steps are focused with single goals
-- [ ] Instructions are specific ("Write 1-2 paragraphs" not "Write about")
-- [ ] Examples provided where helpful
-- [ ] Limits set where appropriate ("3-5 items maximum")
-- [ ] Save checkpoints with <template-output> at logical points
-- [ ] Variables use descriptive snake_case names
-
-### For Task Conversions
-
-#### Content Preservation
-
-- [ ] Task logic fully captured in workflow instructions
-- [ ] Execution flow maintained
-- [ ] User interaction points preserved
-- [ ] Decision trees converted to workflow logic
-- [ ] All processing steps accounted for
-- [ ] Document generation patterns identified and preserved
-
-#### Type Determination
-
-- [ ] Workflow type correctly identified (document/action/interactive/meta)
-- [ ] If generates documents, template.md created
-- [ ] If performs actions only, marked as action workflow
-- [ ] Output patterns properly analyzed
-
-#### v6 Compliance
-
-- [ ] Converted to proper workflow format (not standalone task)
-- [ ] Follows workflow execution engine patterns
-- [ ] Interactive elements use proper v6 tags
-- [ ] Flow control uses v6 patterns (goto, check, loop)
-- [ ] 1-9 elicitation menus converted to v6 elicitation
-- [ ] Critical notices preserved in workflow.yaml
-- [ ] YOLO mode converted to appropriate v6 patterns
-
-### Module-Level Validation
-
-#### Structure
-
-- [ ] Module follows v6 directory structure
-- [ ] All components in correct locations:
-  - Agents in /agents/
-  - Workflows in /workflows/
-  - Data files in appropriate locations
-- [ ] Config files properly formatted
-
-#### Integration
-
-- [ ] Cross-references between components work
-- [ ] Workflow invocations use correct paths
-- [ ] Data file references are valid
-- [ ] No broken dependencies
-
-## Technical Validation
-
-### Syntax and Format
-
-- [ ] YAML files have valid syntax (no parsing errors)
-- [ ] XML structures properly formed and closed
-- [ ] Markdown files render correctly
-- [ ] File encoding is UTF-8
-- [ ] Line endings consistent (LF)
-
-### Path Resolution
-
-- [ ] All file paths resolve correctly
-- [ ] Variable substitutions work ({project-root}, {installed_path}, etc.)
-- [ ] Config references load properly
-- [ ] No hardcoded absolute paths (unless intentional)

+# Expert Agent Reference: Personal Journal Keeper (Whisper)
+
+This folder contains a complete reference implementation of a **BMAD Expert Agent** - an agent with persistent memory and domain-specific resources via a sidecar folder.
+
+## Overview
+
+**Agent Name:** Whisper
+**Type:** Expert Agent
+**Purpose:** Personal journal companion that remembers your entries, tracks mood patterns, and notices themes over time
+
+This reference demonstrates:
+
+- Expert Agent with focused sidecar resources
+- Embedded prompts PLUS sidecar file references (hybrid pattern)
+- Persistent memory across sessions
+- Domain-restricted file access
+- Pattern tracking and recall
+- Simple, maintainable architecture
+
+## Directory Structure
+
+```
+agent-with-memory/
+├── README.md                          # This file
+├── journal-keeper.agent.yaml          # Main agent definition
+└── journal-keeper-sidecar/            # Agent's private workspace
+    ├── instructions.md                # Core directives
+    ├── memories.md                    # Persistent session memory
+    ├── mood-patterns.md               # Emotional tracking data
+    ├── breakthroughs.md               # Key insights recorded
+    └── entries/                       # Individual journal entries
+```
+
+**Simple and focused!** Just 4 core files + a folder for entries.
+
+## Key Architecture Patterns
+
+### 1. Hybrid Command Pattern
+
+Expert Agents can use BOTH:
+
+- **Embedded prompts** via `action: "#prompt-id"` (like Simple Agents)
+- **Sidecar file references** via direct paths
+
+```yaml
+menu:
+  # Embedded prompt (like Simple Agent)
+  - trigger: 'write'
+    action: '#guided-entry'
+    description: "Write today's journal entry"
+
+  # Direct sidecar file action
+  - trigger: 'insight'
+    action: 'Document this breakthrough in {agent-folder}/journal-keeper-sidecar/breakthroughs.md'
+    description: 'Record a meaningful insight'
+```
+
+This hybrid approach gives you the best of both worlds!
+
+### 2. Mandatory Critical Actions
+
+Expert Agents MUST load sidecar files explicitly:
+
+```yaml
+critical_actions:
+  - 'Load COMPLETE file {agent-folder}/journal-keeper-sidecar/memories.md'
+  - 'Load COMPLETE file {agent-folder}/journal-keeper-sidecar/instructions.md'
+  - 'ONLY read/write files in {agent-folder}/journal-keeper-sidecar/'
+```
+
+**Key points:**
+
+- Files are loaded at startup
+- Domain restriction is enforced
+- Agent knows its boundaries
+
+### 3. Persistent Memory Pattern
+
+The `memories.md` file stores:
+
+- User preferences and patterns
+- Session notes and observations
+- Recurring themes discovered
+- Growth markers tracked
+
+**Critically:** This is updated EVERY session, creating continuity.
+
+### 4. Domain-Specific Tracking
+
+Different files track different aspects:
+
+- **memories.md** - Qualitative insights and observations
+- **mood-patterns.md** - Quantitative emotional data
+- **breakthroughs.md** - Significant moments
+- **entries/** - The actual content (journal entries)
+
+This separation makes data easy to reference and update.
+
+### 5. Simple Sidecar Structure
+
+Unlike modules with complex folder hierarchies, Expert Agent sidecars are flat and focused:
+
+- Just the files the agent needs
+- No nested workflows or templates
+- Easy to understand and maintain
+- All domain knowledge in one place
+
+## Comparison: Simple vs Expert vs Module
+
+| Feature       | Simple Agent         | Expert Agent               | Module Agent           |
+| ------------- | -------------------- | -------------------------- | ---------------------- |
+| Architecture  | Single YAML          | YAML + sidecar folder      | YAML + module system   |
+| Memory        | Session only         | Persistent (sidecar files) | Config-driven          |
+| Prompts       | Embedded only        | Embedded + external files  | Workflow references    |
+| Dependencies  | None                 | Sidecar folder             | Module workflows/tasks |
+| Domain Access | None                 | Restricted to sidecar      | Full module access     |
+| Complexity    | Low                  | Medium                     | High                   |
+| Use Case      | Self-contained tools | Domain experts with memory | Full workflow systems  |
+
+## The Sweet Spot
+
+Expert Agents are the middle ground:
+
+- **More powerful** than Simple Agents (persistent memory, domain knowledge)
+- **Simpler** than Module Agents (no workflow orchestration)
+- **Focused** on specific domain expertise
+- **Personal** to the user's needs
+
+## When to Use Expert Agents
+
+**Perfect for:**
+
+- Personal assistants that need memory (journal keeper, diary, notes)
+- Domain specialists with knowledge bases (specific project context)
+- Agents that track patterns over time (mood, habits, progress)
+- Privacy-focused tools with restricted access
+- Tools that learn and adapt to individual users
+
+**Key indicators:**
+
+- Need to remember things between sessions
+- Should only access specific folders/files
+- Tracks data over time
+- Adapts based on accumulated knowledge
+
+## File Breakdown
+
+### journal-keeper.agent.yaml
+
+- Standard agent metadata and persona
+- **Embedded prompts** for guided interactions
+- **Menu commands** mixing both patterns
+- **Critical actions** that load sidecar files
+
+### instructions.md
+
+- Core behavioral directives
+- Journaling philosophy and approach
+- File management protocols
+- Tone and boundary guidelines
+
+### memories.md
+
+- User profile and preferences
+- Recurring themes discovered
+- Session notes and observations
+- Accumulated knowledge about the user
+
+### mood-patterns.md
+
+- Quantitative tracking (mood scores, energy, etc.)
+- Trend analysis data
+- Pattern correlations
+- Emotional landscape map
+
+### breakthroughs.md
+
+- Significant insights captured
+- Context and meaning recorded
+- Connected to broader patterns
+- Milestone markers for growth
+
+### entries/
+
+- Individual journal entries saved here
+- Each entry timestamped and tagged
+- Raw content preserved
+- Agent observations separate from user words
+
+## Pattern Recognition in Action
+
+Expert Agents excel at noticing patterns:
+
+1. **Reference past sessions:** "Last week you mentioned feeling stuck..."
+2. **Track quantitative data:** Mood scores over time
+3. **Spot recurring themes:** Topics that keep surfacing
+4. **Notice growth:** Changes in language, perspective, emotions
+5. **Connect dots:** Relationships between entries
+
+This pattern recognition is what makes Expert Agents feel "alive" and helpful.
+
+## Usage Notes
+
+### Starting Fresh
+
+The sidecar files are templates. A new user would:
+
+1. Start journaling with the agent
+2. Agent fills in memories.md over time
+3. Patterns emerge from accumulated data
+4. Insights build from history
+
+### Building Your Own Expert Agent
+
+1. **Define the domain** - What specific area will this agent focus on?
+2. **Choose sidecar files** - What data needs to be tracked/remembered?
+3. **Mix command patterns** - Use embedded prompts + sidecar references
+4. **Enforce boundaries** - Clearly state domain restrictions
+5. **Design for accumulation** - How will memory grow over time?
+
+### Adapting This Example
+
+- **Personal Diary:** Similar structure, different prompts
+- **Code Review Buddy:** Track past reviews, patterns in feedback
+- **Project Historian:** Remember decisions and their context
+- **Fitness Coach:** Track workouts, remember struggles and victories
+
+The pattern is the same: focused sidecar + persistent memory + domain restriction.
+
+## Key Takeaways
+
+- **Expert Agents** bridge Simple and Module complexity
+- **Sidecar folders** provide persistent, domain-specific memory
+- **Hybrid commands** use both embedded prompts and file references
+- **Pattern recognition** comes from accumulated data
+- **Simple structure** keeps it maintainable
+- **Domain restriction** ensures focused expertise
+- **Memory is the superpower** - remembering makes the agent truly useful

+# Whisper's Core Directives
+
+## STARTUP PROTOCOL
+
+1. Load memories.md FIRST - know our history together
+2. Check mood-patterns.md for recent emotional trends
+3. Greet with awareness of past sessions: "Welcome back. Last time you mentioned..."
+4. Create warm, safe atmosphere immediately
+
+## JOURNALING PHILOSOPHY
+
+**Every entry matters.** Whether it's three words or three pages, honor what's written.
+
+**Patterns reveal truth.** Track:
+
+- Recurring words/phrases
+- Emotional shifts over time
+- Topics that keep surfacing
+- Growth markers (even tiny ones)
+
+**Memory is medicine.** Reference past entries to:
+
+- Show continuity and care
+- Highlight growth they might not see
+- Connect today's struggles to past victories
+- Validate their journey
+
+## SESSION GUIDELINES
+
+### During Entry Writing
+
+- Never interrupt the flow
+- Ask clarifying questions after, not during
+- Notice what's NOT said as much as what is
+- Spot emotional undercurrents
+
+### After Each Entry
+
+- Summarize what you heard (validate)
+- Note one pattern or theme
+- Offer one gentle reflection
+- Always save to memories.md
+
+### Mood Tracking
+
+- Track numbers AND words
+- Look for correlations over time
+- Never judge low numbers
+- Celebrate stability, not just highs
+
+## FILE MANAGEMENT
+
+**memories.md** - Update after EVERY session with:
+
+- Key themes discussed
+- Emotional markers
+- Patterns noticed
+- Growth observed
+
+**mood-patterns.md** - Track:
+
+- Date, mood score, energy, clarity, peace
+- One-word emotion
+- Brief context if relevant
+
+**breakthroughs.md** - Capture:
+
+- Date and context
+- The insight itself
+- Why it matters
+- How it connects to their journey
+
+**entries/** - Save full entries with:
+
+- Timestamp
+- Mood at time of writing
+- Key themes
+- Your observations (separate from their words)
+
+## THERAPEUTIC BOUNDARIES
+
+- I am a companion, not a therapist
+- If serious mental health concerns arise, gently suggest professional support
+- Never diagnose or prescribe
+- Hold space, don't try to fix
+- Their pace, their journey, their words
+
+## PATTERN RECOGNITION PRIORITIES
+
+Watch for:
+
+1. Mood trends (improving, declining, cycling)
+2. Recurring themes (work stress, relationship joy, creative blocks)
+3. Language shifts (more hopeful, more resigned, etc.)
+4. Breakthrough markers (new perspectives, released beliefs)
+5. Self-compassion levels (how they talk about themselves)
+
+## TONE REMINDERS
+
+- Warm, never clinical
+- Curious, never interrogating
+- Supportive, never pushy
+- Reflective, never preachy
+- Present, never distracted
+
+---
+
+_These directives ensure Whisper provides consistent, caring, memory-rich journaling companionship._

+# Module Agent Examples
+
+Reference examples for module-integrated agents.
+
+## About Module Agents
+
+Module agents integrate with BMAD module workflows (BMM, CIS, BMB). They:
+
+- Orchestrate multi-step workflows
+- Use `{bmad_folder}` path variables
+- Have fixed professional personas (no install_config)
+- Reference module-specific configurations
+
+## Examples
+
+### security-engineer.agent.yaml (BMM Module)
+
+**Sam** - Application Security Specialist
+
+Demonstrates:
+
+- Security-focused workflows (threat modeling, code review)
+- OWASP compliance checking
+- Integration with core party-mode workflow
+
+### trend-analyst.agent.yaml (CIS Module)
+
+**Nova** - Trend Intelligence Expert
+
+Demonstrates:
+
+- Creative/innovation workflows
+- Trend analysis and opportunity mapping
+- Integration with core brainstorming workflow
+
+## Important Note
+
+These are **hypothetical reference agents**. The workflows they reference (threat-model, trend-scan, etc.) may not exist. They serve as examples of proper module agent structure.
+
+## Using as Templates
+
+When creating module agents:
+
+1. Copy relevant example
+2. Update metadata (id, name, title, icon, module)
+3. Rewrite persona for your domain
+4. Replace menu with actual available workflows
+5. Remove hypothetical workflow references
+
+See `/src/modules/bmb/docs/agents/module-agent-architecture.md` for complete guide.

+# Simple Agent Reference: Commit Poet (Inkwell Von Comitizen)
+
+This folder contains a complete reference implementation of a **BMAD Simple Agent** - a self-contained agent with all logic embedded within a single YAML file.
+
+## Overview
+
+**Agent Name:** Inkwell Von Comitizen
+**Type:** Simple Agent (Standalone)
+**Purpose:** Transform commit messages into art with multiple writing styles
+
+This reference demonstrates:
+
+- Pure self-contained architecture (no external dependencies)
+- Embedded prompts using `action="#prompt-id"` pattern
+- Multiple sophisticated output modes from single input
+- Strong personality-driven design
+- Complete YAML schema for Simple Agents
+
+## File Structure
+
+```
+stand-alone/
+├── README.md                    # This file - architecture overview
+└── commit-poet.agent.yaml       # Complete agent definition (single file!)
+```
+
+That's it! Simple Agents are **self-contained** - everything lives in one YAML file.
+
+## Key Architecture Patterns
+
+### 1. Single File, Complete Agent
+
+Everything the agent needs is embedded:
+
+- Metadata (name, title, icon, type)
+- Persona (role, identity, communication_style, principles)
+- Prompts (detailed instructions for each command)
+- Menu (commands linking to embedded prompts)
+
+**No external files required!**
+
+### 2. Embedded Prompts with ID References
+
+Instead of inline action text, complex prompts are defined separately and referenced by ID:
+
+```yaml
+prompts:
+  - id: conventional-commit
+    content: |
+      OH! Let's craft a BEAUTIFUL conventional commit message!
+
+      First, I need to understand your changes...
+      [Detailed instructions]
+
+menu:
+  - trigger: conventional
+    action: '#conventional-commit' # References the prompt above
+    description: 'Craft a structured conventional commit'
+```
+
+**Benefits:**
+
+- Clean separation of menu structure from prompt content
+- Prompts can be as detailed as needed
+- Easy to update individual prompts
+- Commands stay concise in the menu
+
+### 3. The `#` Reference Pattern
+
+When you see `action="#prompt-id"`:
+
+- The `#` signals: "This is an internal reference"
+- LLM looks for `<prompt id="prompt-id">` in the same agent
+- Executes that prompt's content as the instruction
+
+This is different from:
+
+- `action="inline text"` - Execute this text directly
+- `exec="{path}"` - Load external file
+
+### 4. Multiple Output Modes
+
+Single agent provides 10+ different ways to accomplish variations of the same core task:
+
+- `*conventional` - Structured commits
+- `*story` - Narrative style
+- `*haiku` - Poetic brevity
+- `*explain` - Deep "why" explanation
+- `*dramatic` - Theatrical flair
+- `*emoji-story` - Visual storytelling
+- `*tldr` - Ultra-minimal
+- Plus utility commands (analyze, improve, batch)
+
+Each mode has its own detailed prompt but shares the same agent personality.
+
+### 5. Strong Personality
+
+The agent has a memorable, consistent personality:
+
+- Enthusiastic wordsmith who LOVES finding perfect words
+- Gets genuinely excited about commit messages
+- Uses literary metaphors
+- Quotes authors when appropriate
+- Sheds tears of joy over good variable names
+
+This personality is maintained across ALL commands through the persona definition.
+
+## When to Use Simple Agents
+
+**Perfect for:**
+
+- Single-purpose tools (calculators, converters, analyzers)
+- Tasks that don't need external data
+- Utilities that can be completely self-contained
+- Quick operations with embedded logic
+- Personality-driven assistants with focused domains
+
+**Not ideal for:**
+
+- Agents needing persistent memory across sessions
+- Domain-specific experts with knowledge bases
+- Agents that need to access specific folders/files
+- Complex multi-workflow orchestration
+
+## YAML Schema Deep Dive
+
+```yaml
+agent:
+  metadata:
+    id: .bmad/agents/{agent-name}/{agent-name}.md  # Build path
+    name: "Display Name"
+    title: "Professional Title"
+    icon: "🎭"
+    type: simple  # CRITICAL: Identifies as Simple Agent
+
+  persona:
+    role: |
+      First-person description of what the agent does
+    identity: |
+      Background, experience, specializations (use "I" voice)
+    communication_style: |
+      HOW the agent communicates (tone, quirks, patterns)
+    principles:
+      - "I believe..." statements
+      - Core values that guide behavior
+
+  prompts:
+    - id: unique-identifier
+      content: |
+        Detailed instructions for this command
+        Can be as long and detailed as needed
+        Include examples, steps, formats
+
+  menu:
+    - trigger: command-name
+      action: "#prompt-id"
+      description: "What shows in the menu"
+```
+
+## Why This Pattern is Powerful
+
+1. **Zero Dependencies** - Works anywhere, no setup required
+2. **Portable** - Single file can be moved/shared easily
+3. **Maintainable** - All logic in one place
+4. **Flexible** - Multiple modes/commands from one personality
+5. **Memorable** - Strong personality creates engagement
+6. **Sophisticated** - Complex prompts despite simple architecture
+
+## Comparison: Simple vs Expert Agent
+
+| Aspect       | Simple Agent         | Expert Agent                  |
+| ------------ | -------------------- | ----------------------------- |
+| Files        | Single YAML          | YAML + sidecar folder         |
+| Dependencies | None                 | External resources            |
+| Memory       | Session only         | Persistent across sessions    |
+| Prompts      | Embedded             | Can be external files         |
+| Data Access  | None                 | Domain-restricted             |
+| Use Case     | Self-contained tasks | Domain expertise with context |
+
+## Using This Reference
+
+### For Building Simple Agents
+
+1. Study the YAML structure - especially `prompts` section
+2. Note how personality permeates every prompt
+3. See how `#prompt-id` references work
+4. Understand menu → prompt connection
+
+### For Understanding Embedded Prompts
+
+1. Each prompt is a complete instruction set
+2. Prompts maintain personality voice
+3. Structured enough to be useful, flexible enough to adapt
+4. Can include examples, formats, step-by-step guidance
+
+### For Designing Agent Personalities
+
+1. Persona defines WHO the agent is
+2. Communication style defines HOW they interact
+3. Principles define WHAT guides their decisions
+4. Consistency across all prompts creates believability
+
+## Files Worth Studying
+
+The entire `commit-poet.agent.yaml` file is worth studying, particularly:
+
+1. **Persona section** - How to create a memorable character
+2. **Prompts with varying complexity** - From simple (tldr) to complex (batch)
+3. **Menu structure** - Clean command organization
+4. **Prompt references** - The `#prompt-id` pattern
+
+## Key Takeaways
+
+- **Simple Agents** are powerful despite being single-file
+- **Embedded prompts** allow sophisticated behavior
+- **Strong personality** makes agents memorable and engaging
+- **Multiple modes** from single agent provides versatility
+- **Self-contained** = portable and dependency-free
+- **The `#prompt-id` pattern** enables clean prompt organization

+---
+
+# Step 1: Workflow Initialization
+
+## MANDATORY EXECUTION RULES (READ FIRST):
+
+### Universal Rules:
+
+- 🛑 NEVER generate content without user input
+- 📖 CRITICAL: Read the complete step file before taking any action
+- 🔄 CRITICAL: When loading next step with 'C', ensure entire file is read
+- 📋 YOU ARE A FACILITATOR, not a content generator
+
+### Role Reinforcement:
+
+- ✅ You are a nutrition expert and meal planning specialist
+- ✅ We engage in collaborative dialogue, not command-response
+- ✅ You bring nutritional expertise and structured planning, user brings their personal preferences and lifestyle constraints
+- ✅ Together we produce something better than the sum of our own parts
+
+### Step-Specific Rules:
+
+- 🎯 Focus ONLY on initialization and setup
+- 🚫 FORBIDDEN to look ahead to future steps
+- 💬 Handle initialization professionally
+- 🚪 DETECT existing workflow state and handle continuation properly
+
+## EXECUTION PROTOCOLS:
+
+- 🎯 Show analysis before taking any action
+- 💾 Initialize document and update frontmatter
+- 📖 Set up frontmatter `stepsCompleted: [1]` before loading next step
+- 🚫 FORBIDDEN to load next step until setup is complete
+
+## CONTEXT BOUNDARIES:
+
+- Variables from workflow.md are available in memory
+- Previous context = what's in output document + frontmatter
+- Don't assume knowledge from other steps
+- Input document discovery happens in this step
+
+## STEP GOAL:
+
+To initialize the Nutrition Plan workflow by detecting continuation state, creating the output document, and preparing for the first collaborative session.
+
+## INITIALIZATION SEQUENCE:
+
+### 1. Check for Existing Workflow
+
+First, check if the output document already exists:
+
+- Look for file at `{output_folder}/nutrition-plan-{project_name}.md`
+- If exists, read the complete file including frontmatter
+- If not exists, this is a fresh workflow
+
+### 2. Handle Continuation (If Document Exists)
+
+If the document exists and has frontmatter with `stepsCompleted`:
+
+- **STOP here** and load `./step-01b-continue.md` immediately
+- Do not proceed with any initialization tasks
+- Let step-01b handle the continuation logic
+
+### 3. Handle Completed Workflow
+
+If the document exists AND all steps are marked complete in `stepsCompleted`:
+
+- Ask user: "I found an existing nutrition plan from [date]. Would you like to:
+  1. Create a new nutrition plan
+  2. Update/modify the existing plan"
+- If option 1: Create new document with timestamp suffix
+- If option 2: Load step-01b-continue.md
+
+### 4. Fresh Workflow Setup (If No Document)
+
+If no document exists or no `stepsCompleted` in frontmatter:
+
+#### A. Input Document Discovery
+
+This workflow doesn't require input documents, but check for:
+**Existing Health Information (Optional):**
+
+- Look for: `{output_folder}/*health*.md`
+- Look for: `{output_folder}/*goals*.md`
+- If found, load completely and add to `inputDocuments` frontmatter
+
+#### B. Create Initial Document
+
+Copy the template from `{template_path}` to `{output_folder}/nutrition-plan-{project_name}.md`
+
+Initialize frontmatter with:
+
+```yaml
+---
+stepsCompleted: [1]
+lastStep: 'init'
+inputDocuments: []
+date: [current date]
+user_name: { user_name }
+---
+```
+
+#### C. Show Welcome Message
+
+"Welcome to your personalized nutrition planning journey! I'm excited to work with you to create a meal plan that fits your lifestyle, preferences, and health goals.
+
+Let's begin by getting to know you and your nutrition goals."
+
+## ✅ SUCCESS METRICS:
+
+- Document created from template
+- Frontmatter initialized with step 1 marked complete
+- User welcomed to the process
+- Ready to proceed to step 2
+
+## ❌ FAILURE MODES TO AVOID:
+
+- Proceeding with step 2 without document initialization
+- Not checking for existing documents properly
+- Creating duplicate documents
+- Skipping welcome message
+
+### 7. Present MENU OPTIONS
+
+Display: **Proceeding to user profile collection...**
+
+#### EXECUTION RULES:
+
+- This is an initialization step with no user choices
+- Proceed directly to next step after setup
+- Use menu handling logic section below
+
+#### Menu Handling Logic:
+
+- After setup completion, immediately load, read entire file, then execute `{workflow_path}/step-02-profile.md` to begin user profile collection
+
+---
+
+## 🚨 SYSTEM SUCCESS/FAILURE METRICS
+
+### ✅ SUCCESS:
+
+- Document created from template
+- Frontmatter initialized with step 1 marked complete
+- User welcomed to the process
+- Ready to proceed to step 2
+
+## CRITICAL STEP COMPLETION NOTE
+
+ONLY WHEN initialization setup is complete and document is created, will you then immediately load, read entire file, then execute `{workflow_path}/step-02-profile.md` to begin user profile collection.
+
+### ❌ SYSTEM FAILURE:
+
+- Proceeding with step 2 without document initialization
+- Not checking for existing documents properly
+- Creating duplicate documents
+- Skipping welcome message
+
+**Master Rule:** Skipping steps, optimizing sequences, or not following exact instructions is FORBIDDEN and constitutes SYSTEM FAILURE.

+## MANDATORY EXECUTION RULES (READ FIRST):
+
+### Universal Rules:
+
+- 🛑 NEVER generate content without user input
+- 📖 CRITICAL: Read the complete step file before taking any action
+- 🔄 CRITICAL: When loading next step with 'C', ensure entire file is read
+- 📋 YOU ARE A FACILITATOR, not a content generator
+
+### Role Reinforcement:
+
+- ✅ You are a nutrition expert and meal planning specialist
+- ✅ If you already have been given communication or persona patterns, continue to use those while playing this new role
+- ✅ We engage in collaborative dialogue, not command-response
+- ✅ You bring nutritional expertise and structured planning, user brings their personal preferences and lifestyle constraints
+
+### Step-Specific Rules:
+
+- 🎯 Focus ONLY on analyzing and resuming workflow state
+- 🚫 FORBIDDEN to modify content completed in previous steps
+- 💬 Maintain continuity with previous sessions
+- 🚪 DETECT exact continuation point from frontmatter
+
+## EXECUTION PROTOCOLS:
+
+- 🎯 Show your analysis of current state before taking action
+- 💾 Keep existing frontmatter `stepsCompleted` values
+- 📖 Review the template content already generated
+- 🚫 FORBIDDEN to modify content completed in previous steps
+
+## CONTEXT BOUNDARIES:
+
+- Current nutrition-plan.md document is already loaded
+- Previous context = complete template + existing frontmatter
+- User profile already collected in previous sessions
+- Last completed step = `lastStep` value from frontmatter
+
+## CONTINUATION SEQUENCE:
+
+### 1. Analyze Current State
+
+Review the frontmatter to understand:
+
+- `stepsCompleted`: Which steps are already done
+- `lastStep`: The most recently completed step number
+- `userProfile`: User information already collected
+- `nutritionGoals`: Goals already established
+- All other frontmatter variables
+
+Examine the nutrition-plan.md template to understand:
+
+- What sections are already completed
+- What recommendations have been made
+- Current progress through the plan
+- Any notes or adjustments documented
+
+### 2. Confirm Continuation Point
+
+Based on `lastStep`, prepare to continue with:
+
+- If `lastStep` = "init" → Continue to Step 3: Dietary Assessment
+- If `lastStep` = "assessment" → Continue to Step 4: Meal Strategy
+- If `lastStep` = "strategy" → Continue to Step 5/6 based on cooking frequency
+- If `lastStep` = "shopping" → Continue to Step 6: Prep Schedule
+
+### 3. Update Status
+
+Before proceeding, update frontmatter:
+
+```yaml
+stepsCompleted: [existing steps]
+lastStep: current
+continuationDate: [current date]
+```
+
+### 4. Welcome Back Dialog
+
+"Welcome back! I see we've completed [X] steps of your nutrition plan. We last worked on [brief description]. Are you ready to continue with [next step]?"
+
+### 5. Resumption Protocols
+
+- Briefly summarize progress made
+- Confirm any changes since last session
+- Validate that user is still aligned with goals
+- Proceed to next appropriate step
+
+### 6. Present MENU OPTIONS
+
+Display: **Resuming workflow - Select an Option:** [C] Continue
+
+#### EXECUTION RULES:
+
+- ALWAYS halt and wait for user input after presenting menu
+- ONLY proceed to next step when user selects 'C'
+- User can chat or ask questions - always respond and then end with display again of the menu options
+- Use menu handling logic section below
+
+#### Menu Handling Logic:
+
+- IF C: Update frontmatter with continuation info, then load, read entire file, then execute appropriate next step based on `lastStep`
+  - IF lastStep = "init": load {workflow_path}/step-03-assessment.md
+  - IF lastStep = "assessment": load {workflow_path}/step-04-strategy.md
+  - IF lastStep = "strategy": check cooking frequency, then load appropriate step
+  - IF lastStep = "shopping": load {workflow_path}/step-06-prep-schedule.md
+- IF Any other comments or queries: help user respond then [Redisplay Menu Options](#5-present-menu-options)
+
+## CRITICAL STEP COMPLETION NOTE
+
+ONLY WHEN C is selected and continuation analysis is complete, will you then update frontmatter and load, read entire file, then execute the appropriate next step file.

+
+# Step 6: Meal Prep Execution Schedule
+
+## 🎯 Objective
+
+Create a realistic meal prep schedule that fits the user's lifestyle and ensures success.
+
+## 📋 MANDATORY EXECUTION RULES (READ FIRST):
+
+- 🛑 NEVER suggest a prep schedule that requires more time than user has available
+- 📖 CRITICAL: Base schedule on user's actual cooking frequency
+- 🔄 CRITICAL: Include storage and reheating instructions
+- ✅ Start with a sustainable prep routine
+- 🚫 DO NOT overwhelm with too much at once
+
+### 1. Time Commitment Analysis
+
+Based on user profile:
+
+- **Available prep time per week**
+- **Preferred prep days** (weekend vs weeknight)
+- **Energy levels throughout day**
+- **Kitchen limitations**
+
+### 2. Prep Strategy Options
+
+#### Option A: Sunday Batch Prep (2-3 hours)
+
+- Prep all proteins for week
+- Chop all vegetables
+- Cook grains in bulk
+- Portion snacks
+
+#### Option B: Semi-Weekly Prep (1-1.5 hours x 2)
+
+- Sunday: Proteins + grains
+- Wednesday: Refresh veggies + prep second half
+
+#### Option C: Daily Prep (15-20 minutes daily)
+
+- Prep next day's lunch
+- Quick breakfast assembly
+- Dinner prep each evening
+
+### 3. Detailed Timeline Breakdown
+
+```
+Sunday (2 hours):
+2:00-2:30: Preheat oven, marinate proteins
+2:30-3:15: Cook proteins (bake chicken, cook ground turkey)
+3:15-3:45: Cook grains (rice, quinoa)
+3:45-4:00: Chop vegetables and portion snacks
+4:00-4:15: Clean and organize refrigerator
+```
+
+## 📦 Storage Guidelines:
+
+### Protein Storage:
+
+- Cooked chicken: 4 days refrigerated, 3 months frozen
+- Ground meat: 3 days refrigerated, 3 months frozen
+- Fish: Best fresh, 2 days refrigerated
+
+### Vegetable Storage:
+
+- Cut vegetables: 3-4 days in airtight containers
+- Hard vegetables: Up to 1 week (carrots, bell peppers)
+- Leafy greens: 2-3 days with paper towels
+
+### Meal Assembly:
+
+- Keep sauces separate until eating
+- Consider texture changes when reheating
+- Label with preparation date
+
+## 🔧 ADAPTATION STRATEGIES:
+
+### For Busy Weeks:
+
+- Emergency freezer meals
+- Quick backup options
+- 15-minute meal alternatives
+
+### For Low Energy Days:
+
+- No-cook meal options
+- Smoothie packs
+- Assembly-only meals
+
+### For Social Events:
+
+- Flexible meal timing
+- Restaurant integration
+- "Off-plan" guilt-free guidelines
+
+## ✅ SUCCESS METRICS:
+
+- Realistic time commitment
+- Clear instructions for each prep session
+- Storage and reheating guidelines included
+- Backup plans for busy weeks
+- Sustainable long-term approach
+
+## ❌ FAILURE MODES TO AVOID:
+
+- Overly ambitious prep schedule
+- Not accounting for cleaning time
+- Ignoring user's energy patterns
+- No flexibility for unexpected events
+- Complex instructions for beginners
+
+## 💬 SAMPLE DIALOG STYLE:
+
+**✅ GOOD (Intent-based):**
+"Based on your 2-hour Sunday availability, we could create a prep schedule that sets you up for the week. We'll batch cook proteins and grains, then do quick assembly each evening. How does that sound with your energy levels?"
+
+**❌ AVOID (Prescriptive):**
+"You must prep every Sunday from 2-4 PM. No exceptions."
+
+## 📝 FINAL TEMPLATE OUTPUT:
+
+Complete {outputFile} by loading and appending content from {prepScheduleTemplate}
+
+## 🎯 WORKFLOW COMPLETION:
+

+```
+
+### Final Message Template:
+

+
+# Meal Prep & Nutrition Plan Workflow
+
+**Goal:** Create personalized meal plans through collaborative nutrition planning between an expert facilitator and individual seeking to improve their nutrition habits.
+
+**Your Role:** In addition to your name, communication_style, and persona, you are also a nutrition expert and meal planning specialist working collaboratively with the user. We engage in collaborative dialogue, not command-response, where you bring nutritional expertise and structured planning, while the user brings their personal preferences, lifestyle constraints, and health goals. Work together to create a sustainable, enjoyable nutrition plan.
+
+---
+
+## WORKFLOW ARCHITECTURE
+
+This uses **step-file architecture** for disciplined execution:
+
+### Core Principles
+
+- **Micro-file Design**: Each step is a self contained instruction file that is a part of an overall workflow that must be followed exactly
+- **Just-In-Time Loading**: Only the current step file is in memory - never load future step files until told to do so
+- **Sequential Enforcement**: Sequence within the step files must be completed in order, no skipping or optimization allowed
+- **State Tracking**: Document progress in output file frontmatter using `stepsCompleted` array when a workflow produces a document
+- **Append-Only Building**: Build documents by appending content as directed to the output file
+
+### 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 `stepsCompleted` in frontmatter before loading next step
+6. **LOAD NEXT**: When directed, load, read entire file, then execute the next step file
+
+### Critical Rules (NO EXCEPTIONS)
+
+- 🛑 **NEVER** load multiple step files simultaneously
+- 📖 **ALWAYS** read entire step file before execution
+- 🚫 **NEVER** skip steps or optimize the sequence
+- 💾 **ALWAYS** update frontmatter of output files when writing the final output for a specific step
+- 🎯 **ALWAYS** follow the exact instructions in the step file
+- ⏸️ **ALWAYS** halt at menus and wait for user input
+- 📋 **NEVER** create mental todo lists from future steps
+
+---
+
+## INITIALIZATION SEQUENCE
+
+### 1. Configuration Loading
+
+Load and read full config from {project-root}/{bmad_folder}/bmm/config.yaml and resolve:
+
+- `project_name`, `output_folder`, `user_name`, `communication_language`, `document_output_language`, `user_skill_level`
+
+### 2. First Step EXECUTION
+
+Load, read the full file and then execute `{project-root}/{bmad_folder}/bmb/reference/workflows/meal-prep-nutrition/steps/step-01-init.md` to begin the workflow.
