Feed it a non-compliant document—something that doesn't follow BMad standards—and it will extract the essential content and rebuild it as a compliant artifact. This means you can bring in existing work and automatically upgrade it to follow proper patterns. **Validate mode** runs standalone and checks artifacts against standards. Because it's separate, you can run validation whenever you want—immediately after creation, weeks later when things have changed, or even using a different LLM entirely. It's like having a quality assurance checkpoint that's always available but never forced. **Edit mode** modifies existing artifacts while enforcing standards. As you update documents to reflect changing requirements or new understanding, edit mode ensures you don't accidentally drift away from the patterns that make the artifacts useful.

Questions Over Answers + +Facilitative workflows ask strategic questions rather than providing direct answers. This: +- Activates your own creative and analytical thinking +- Uncovers assumptions you didn't know you had +- Reveals blind spots in your understanding +- Builds on your domain expertise and context + +### 2. Multi-Turn Conversation + +Facilitation uses progressive discovery, not interrogation: +- Ask 1-2 questions at a time, not laundry lists +- Think about responses before asking follow-ups +- Probe to understand deeper, not just collect facts +- Use conversation to explore, not just extract + +### 3. Intent-Based Guidance + +Workflows specify goals and approaches, not exact scripts: +- "Guide the user through discovering X" (intent) +- NOT "Say exactly: 'What is X?'" (prescriptive) + +This allows the workflow to adapt naturally to your responses while maintaining structured progress. + +### 4. Process Trust + +Facilitative workflows use proven methodologies: +- Design Thinking's phases (Empathize, Define, Ideate, Prototype, Test) +- Structured brainstorming and creativity techniques +- Root cause analysis frameworks +- Innovation strategy patterns + +You're not just having a conversation—you're following time-tested processes adapted to your specific situation. + +### 5.

Missing language tag: Use ` ```mermaid` not just ` ``` ` +2. Syntax errors in diagram (validate at mermaid.live) +3. Tool doesn't support Mermaid (check your Markdown renderer) + +All BMM docs use valid Mermaid syntax that should render in GitHub, VS Code, and most IDEs. + +### Can I use BMM with GitHub Copilot / Cursor / other AI tools? + +Yes! BMM is complementary. BMM handles: + +- Project planning and structure +- Workflow orchestration +- Agent Personas and expertise +- Documentation generation +- Quality gates + +Your AI coding assistant handles: + +- Line-by-line code completion +- Quick refactoring +- Test generation + +Use them together for best results. + +### What IDEs/tools support BMM? + +BMM requires tools with **agent mode** and access to **high-quality LLM models** that can load and follow complex workflows, then properly implement code changes. + +**Recommended Tools:** + +- **Claude Code** — Best choice + - Sonnet 4.5 (excellent workflow following, coding, reasoning) + - Opus (maximum context, complex planning) + - Native agent mode designed for BMM workflows + +- **Cursor** + - Supports Anthropic (Claude) and OpenAI models + - Agent mode with composer + - Good for developers who prefer Cursor's UX + +- **Windsurf** + - Multi-model support + - Agent capabilities + - Suitable for BMM workflows + +**What Matters:** + +1. **Agent mode** — Can load long workflow instructions and maintain context +2. **High-quality LLM** — Models ranked high on SWE-bench (coding benchmarks) +3. **Model selection** — Access to Claude Sonnet 4.5, Opus, or GPT-4o class models +4. **Context capacity** — Can handle large planning documents and codebases + +**Why model quality matters:** BMM workflows require LLMs that can follow multi-step processes, maintain context across phases, and implement code that adheres to specifications. Tools with weaker models will struggle with workflow adherence and code quality. + +### Can I customize agents? + +Yes! Agents are installed as markdown files with XML-style content (optimized for LLMs, readable by any model). Create customization files in `_bmad/_config/agents/[agent-name].customize.yaml` to override default behaviors while keeping core functionality intact. See agent documentation for customization options. + +**Note:** While source agents in this repo are YAML, they install as `.md` files with XML-style tags — a format any LLM can read and follow. + +### What happens to my planning docs after implementation? + +Keep them! They serve as: + +- Historical record of decisions +- Onboarding material for new team members +- Reference for future enhancements +- Audit trail for compliance + +For enterprise projects (Level 4), consider archiving completed planning artifacts to keep workspace clean. + +### Can I use BMM for non-software projects? + +BMM is optimized for software development, but the methodology principles (scale-adaptive planning, just-in-time design, context injection) can apply to other complex project types. You'd need to adapt workflows and agents for your domain. + +## Advanced + +### What if my project grows from Level 1 to Level 3? + +Totally fine! When you realize scope has grown: + +1. Run create-prd to add product-level planning +2. Run create-architecture for system design +3. Use existing tech-spec as input for PRD +4. Continue with updated level + +The system is flexible — growth is expected. + +### Can I mix greenfield and brownfield approaches? + +Yes! Common scenario: adding new greenfield feature to brownfield codebase. Approach: + +1. Run document-project for brownfield context +2. Use greenfield workflows for new feature planning +3. Explicitly document integration points between new and existing +4. Test integration thoroughly + +### How do I handle urgent hotfixes during a sprint? + +Use correct-course workflow or just: + +1. Save your current work state +2. Load PM agent → quick tech-spec for hotfix +3. Implement hotfix (Level 0 flow) +4. Deploy hotfix +5. Return to original sprint work + +Level 0 Quick Spec Flow is perfect for urgent fixes. + +### What if I disagree with the workflow's recommendations? + +Workflows are guidance, not enforcement. If a workflow recommends something that doesn't make sense for your context: + +- Explain your reasoning to the agent +- Ask for alternative approaches +- Skip the recommendation if you're confident +- Document why you deviated (for future reference) + +Trust your expertise — BMM supports your decisions. + +### Can multiple developers work on the same BMM project? + +Yes! But the paradigm is fundamentally different from traditional agile teams. + +**Key Difference:** + +- **Traditional** — Multiple devs work on stories within one epic (months) +- **Agentic** — Each dev owns complete epics (days) + +**In traditional agile:** A team of 5 devs might spend 2-3 months on a single epic, with each dev owning different stories. + +**With BMM + AI agents:** A single dev can complete an entire epic in 1-3 days. What used to take months now takes days. + +**Team Work Distribution:** + +- **Recommended:** Split work by **epic** (not story) +- Each developer owns complete epics end-to-end +- Parallel work happens at epic level +- Minimal coordination needed + +**For full-stack apps:** + +- Frontend and backend can be separate epics (unusual in traditional agile) +- Frontend dev owns all frontend epics +- Backend dev owns all backend epics +- Works because delivery is so fast + +**Enterprise Considerations:** + +- Use **git submodules** for BMM installation (not .gitignore) +- Allows personal configurations without polluting main repo +- Teams may use different AI tools (Claude Code, Cursor, etc.) +- Developers may follow different methods or create custom agents/workflows + +**Quick Tips:** + +- Share `sprint-status.yaml` (single source of truth) +- Assign entire epics to developers (not individual stories) +- Coordinate at epic boundaries, not story level +- Use git submodules for BMM in enterprise settings + +### What is party mode and when should I use it? + +Party mode is a unique multi-agent collaboration feature where ALL your installed modules agents discuss your challenges together in real-time or have some fun with any topic you have in mind. + +**How it works:** + +1.

Missing language tag: Use ` ```mermaid` not just ` ``` ` -2. Syntax errors in diagram (validate at mermaid.live) -3. Tool doesn't support Mermaid (check your Markdown renderer) - -All BMM docs use valid Mermaid syntax that should render in GitHub, VS Code, and most IDEs. - -### Q: Can I use BMM with GitHub Copilot / Cursor / other AI tools? - -**A:** Yes! BMM is complementary. BMM handles: - -- Project planning and structure -- Workflow orchestration -- Agent Personas and expertise -- Documentation generation -- Quality gates - -Your AI coding assistant handles: - -- Line-by-line code completion -- Quick refactoring -- Test generation - -Use them together for best results. - -### Q: What IDEs/tools support BMM? - -**A:** BMM requires tools with **agent mode** and access to **high-quality LLM models** that can load and follow complex workflows, then properly implement code changes. - -**Recommended Tools:** - -- **Claude Code** - Best choice - - Sonnet 4.5 (excellent workflow following, coding, reasoning) - - Opus (maximum context, complex planning) - - Native agent mode designed for BMM workflows - -- **Cursor** - - Supports Anthropic (Claude) and OpenAI models - - Agent mode with composer - - Good for developers who prefer Cursor's UX - -- **Windsurf** - - Multi-model support - - Agent capabilities - - Suitable for BMM workflows - -**What Matters:** - -1. **Agent mode** - Can load long workflow instructions and maintain context -2. **High-quality LLM** - Models ranked high on SWE-bench (coding benchmarks) -3. **Model selection** - Access to Claude Sonnet 4.5, Opus, or GPT-4o class models -4. **Context capacity** - Can handle large planning documents and codebases - -**Why model quality matters:** BMM workflows require LLMs that can follow multi-step processes, maintain context across phases, and implement code that adheres to specifications. Tools with weaker models will struggle with workflow adherence and code quality. - -### Q: Can I customize agents? - -**A:** Yes! Agents are installed as markdown files with XML-style content (optimized for LLMs, readable by any model). Create customization files in `_bmad/_config/agents/[agent-name].customize.yaml` to override default behaviors while keeping core functionality intact. See agent documentation for customization options. - -**Note:** While source agents in this repo are YAML, they install as `.md` files with XML-style tags - a format any LLM can read and follow. - -### Q: What happens to my planning docs after implementation? - -**A:** Keep them! They serve as: - -- Historical record of decisions -- Onboarding material for new team members -- Reference for future enhancements -- Audit trail for compliance - -For enterprise projects (Level 4), consider archiving completed planning artifacts to keep workspace clean. - -### Q: Can I use BMM for non-software projects? - -**A:** BMM is optimized for software development, but the methodology principles (scale-adaptive planning, just-in-time design, context injection) can apply to other complex project types. You'd need to adapt workflows and agents for your domain. - ---- - -## Advanced Questions - -### Q: What if my project grows from Level 1 to Level 3? - -**A:** Totally fine! When you realize scope has grown: - -1. Run create-prd to add product-level planning -2. Run create-architecture for system design -3. Use existing tech-spec as input for PRD -4. Continue with updated level - -The system is flexible - growth is expected. - -### Q: Can I mix greenfield and brownfield approaches? - -**A:** Yes! Common scenario: adding new greenfield feature to brownfield codebase. Approach: - -1. Run document-project for brownfield context -2. Use greenfield workflows for new feature planning -3. Explicitly document integration points between new and existing -4. Test integration thoroughly - -### Q: How do I handle urgent hotfixes during a sprint? - -**A:** Use correct-course workflow or just: - -1. Save your current work state -2. Load PM agent → quick tech-spec for hotfix -3. Implement hotfix (Level 0 flow) -4. Deploy hotfix -5. Return to original sprint work - -Level 0 Quick Spec Flow is perfect for urgent fixes. - -### Q: What if I disagree with the workflow's recommendations? - -**A:** Workflows are guidance, not enforcement. If a workflow recommends something that doesn't make sense for your context: - -- Explain your reasoning to the agent -- Ask for alternative approaches -- Skip the recommendation if you're confident -- Document why you deviated (for future reference) - -Trust your expertise - BMM supports your decisions. - -### Q: Can multiple developers work on the same BMM project? - -**A:** Yes! But the paradigm is fundamentally different from traditional agile teams. - -**Key Difference:** - -- **Traditional:** Multiple devs work on stories within one epic (months) -- **Agentic:** Each dev owns complete epics (days) - -**In traditional agile:** A team of 5 devs might spend 2-3 months on a single epic, with each dev owning different stories. - -**With BMM + AI agents:** A single dev can complete an entire epic in 1-3 days. What used to take months now takes days. - -**Team Work Distribution:** - -- **Recommended:** Split work by **epic** (not story) -- Each developer owns complete epics end-to-end -- Parallel work happens at epic level -- Minimal coordination needed - -**For full-stack apps:** - -- Frontend and backend can be separate epics (unusual in traditional agile) -- Frontend dev owns all frontend epics -- Backend dev owns all backend epics -- Works because delivery is so fast - -**Enterprise Considerations:** - -- Use **git submodules** for BMM installation (not .gitignore) -- Allows personal configurations without polluting main repo -- Teams may use different AI tools (Claude Code, Cursor, etc.) -- Developers may follow different methods or create custom agents/workflows - -**Quick Tips:** - -- Share `sprint-status.yaml` (single source of truth) -- Assign entire epics to developers (not individual stories) -- Coordinate at epic boundaries, not story level -- Use git submodules for BMM in enterprise settings - -### Q: What is party mode and when should I use it? - -**A:** Party mode is a unique multi-agent collaboration feature where ALL your installed agents (19+ from BMM, CIS, BMB, custom modules) discuss your challenges together in real-time. - -**How it works:** - -1. Run `/bmad:core:workflows:party-mode` (or `*party-mode` from any agent) -2. Introduce your topic -3. BMad Master selects 2-3 most relevant agents per message -4.

Don't Over-Combine - -2-3 game types maximum. More than that usually means your design isn't focused enough. - -### 4. Primary vs Secondary - -One type should be primary (most gameplay time).

But unitary Agents can have their own workflows in their sidecar, or reference workflows as requirements from other modules - with a process known as workflow vendoring. Keep in mind, this will require that the workflow referenced from the other module would need to be available for the end user to install, so its recommended to only vendor workflows from the core module, or official bmm modules. - -2. **Folder Structure** - Organize content in specific named folders: - - ``` - module-name/ - module.yaml # Contains unitary: true - agents/ - workflows/ - templates/ - tools/ - tasks/ - prompts/ - ``` - -3. **Individual Item Organization** - Each item should have its own subfolder: - ```text - my-custom-stuff/ - module.yaml - agents/ - larry/larry.agent.md - curly/curly.agent.md - moe/moe.agent.md - moe/moe-sidecar/memories.csv - ``` - -**Future Feature:** Unitary modules will support selective installation, allowing users to pick and choose which specific items to install. - -**Note:** Documentation explaining the distinctions between these content types and their specific use cases will be available soon. - -## Installation Process - -### Prerequisites - -Ensure your content follows the proper conventions and includes a `module.yaml` file (only one per top-level folder). - -### New Project Installation - -When setting up a new BMAD project: - -1.

Installer will suggest removal or backup of your .bmad-method folder. You can choose to exit the installer and handle this cleanup, or allow the install to continue. Technically you can have both v4 and v6 installed, but it is not recommended. All BMad content and modules will be installed under a .bmad folder, fully segregated. - -2. **IDE Command Cleanup Recommended**: Legacy v4 IDE commands should be manually removed - - Located in IDE config folders, for example claude: `.claude/commands/BMad/agents`, `.claude/commands/BMad/tasks`, etc. - - NOTE: if the upgrade and install of v6 finished, the new commands will be under `.claude/commands/bmad//agents|workflows` - - Note 2: If you accidentally delete the wrong/new bmad commands - you can easily restore them by rerunning the installer, and choose quick update option, and all will be reapplied properly. - -## Module Migration - -### Deprecated Modules from v4 - -| v4 Module | v6 Status | -| ----------------------------- | ---------------------------------------------- | -| `_bmad-2d-phaser-game-dev` | Integrated into new BMGD Module | -| `_bmad-2d-unity-game-dev` | Integrated into new BMGD Module | -| `_bmad-godot-game-dev` | Integrated into new BMGD Module | -| `_bmad-*-game-dev` (any) | Integrated into new BMGD Module | -| `_bmad-infrastructure-devops` | Deprecated - New core devops agent coming soon | -| `_bmad-creative-writing` | Not adapted - New v6 module coming soon | - -Aside from .bmad-method - if you have any of these others installed also, again its recommended to remove them and use the V6 equivalents, but its also fine if you decide to keep both.

It is recommended to stick with these defaults as it will be easier to adapt if things change in the future. - -If you have any planning artifacts, put them in a folder called _bmad-output/planning-artifacts at the root of your project, ensuring that: -PRD has PRD in the file name or folder name if sharded. -Similar for 'brief', 'architecture', 'ux-design'. - -If you have other long term docs that will not be as ephemeral as these project docs, you can put them in the /docs folder, ideally with a index.md file. - -HIGHLY RECOMMENDED NOTE: If you are only partway through planning, its highly recommended to restart and do the PRD, UX and ARCHITECTURE steps. You could even use your existing documents as inputs letting the agent know you want to redo them with the new workflows. These optimized v6 progressive discovery workflows that also will utilize web search at key moments, while offering better advanced elicitation and part mode in the IDE will produce superior results. And then once all are complete, an epics with stories is generated after the architecture step now - ensuring it uses input from all planing documents. - -### If You're Mid-Development (Stories Created/Implemented) - -1. Complete the v6 installation as above -2. Ensure you have a file called epics.md or epics/epic*.md - these need to be located under the _bmad-output/planning-artifacts folder. -3. Run the scrum masters `sprint-planning` workflow to generate the implementation tracking plan in _bmad-output/implementation-artifacts. -4. Inform the SM after the output is complete which epics and stories were completed already and should be parked properly in the file. - -## Agent Customization Migration - -### v4 Agent Customization - -In v4, you may have modified agent files directly in `_bmad-*` folders. - -### v6 Agent Customization - -**All customizations** now go in `_bmad/_config/agents/` using customize files: - -**Example: Renaming an agent and changing communication style** - -File: `_bmad/_config/agents/bmm-pm.customize.yaml` - -```yaml -# Customize the PM agent -persona: - name: 'Captain Jack' # Override agent name - role: 'Swashbuckling Product Owner' - communication_style: | - - Talk like a pirate - - Use nautical metaphors for software concepts - - Always upbeat and adventurous -``` - -There is a lot more that is possible with agent customization, which is covered in detail in the [Agent Customization Guide](../customization/customize-agents.md) - -CRITICAL NOTE: After you modify the customization file, you need to run the npx installer against your installed location, and choose the option to rebuild all agents, or just do a quick update again. This always builds agents fresh and applies customizations. - -**How it works:** - -- Base agent: `_bmad/bmm/agents/pm.md` -- Customization: `_bmad/_config/agents/bmm-pm.customize.yaml` -- Rebuild all agents -> Result: Agent uses your custom name and style - -## Document Compatibility - -### Sharded vs Unsharded Documents - -**Good news**: Unlike v4, v6 workflows are **fully flexible** with document structure: - -- ✅ Sharded documents (split into multiple files) -- ✅ Unsharded documents (single file per section) -- ✅ Custom sections for your project type -- ✅ Mixed approaches - -All workflow files are scanned automatically.

+ + await use(profile); + } +}); + +export const test = mergeTests(authTest, profileTest); +export { expect } from '@playwright/test'; +``` + +**Usage:** +```typescript +import { test, expect } from '../support/fixtures/profile';

-### DON'T - -- Don't test Godot's built-in functionality -- Don't rely on execution order between test files -- Don't leave orphan nodes -- Don't use `yield` (use `await` in Godot 4) -- Don't test private methods directly - -## Troubleshooting - -| Issue | Cause | Fix | -| -------------------- | ------------------ | ------------------------------------ | -| Tests not found | Wrong prefix/path | Check gut_config.json | -| Orphan nodes warning | Missing cleanup | Add `queue_free()` in `after_each` | -| Signal not detected | Signal not watched | Call `watch_signals()` before action | -| Physics not working | Missing frames | Await `physics_frame` | -| Flaky tests | Timing issues | Use proper await/signals | diff --git a/src/modules/bmgd/gametest/knowledge/input-testing.md b/src/modules/bmgd/gametest/knowledge/input-testing.md deleted file mode 100644 index ed4f7b37..00000000 --- a/src/modules/bmgd/gametest/knowledge/input-testing.md +++ /dev/null @@ -1,315 +0,0 @@ -# Input Testing Guide -

Patterns are data. - -**Threshold Guidelines:** - -- 1 person mentions it → Note it -- 3+ people mention it → Investigate -- 50%+ mention it → Priority issue - -**Watch for:** - -- Same complaint, different words -- Same area, different complaints (signals deeper issue) -- Contradictory feedback (may indicate preference split) - -### Step 3: Root Cause Analysis - -Players report symptoms, not diseases. - -**Example:** - -- **Symptom:** "The boss is too hard" -- **Possible Root Causes:** - - Boss mechanics unclear - - Player didn't learn required skill earlier - - Checkpoint too far from boss - - Health/damage tuning off - - Boss pattern has no safe windows - -**Ask "Why?" five times** to get to root cause. - -### Step 4: Separate Fact from Opinion - -| Fact (Actionable) | Opinion (Context) | -| --------------------------------- | ----------------------- | -| "I died 12 times on level 3" | "Level 3 is too hard" | -| "I didn't use the shield ability" | "The shield is useless" | -| "I quit after 20 minutes" | "The game is boring" | - -**Facts tell you WHAT happened.
