From d09363b1b2649d641b25131bb54a791d8041e9ab Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Alex Verkhovsky Date: Sat, 18 Apr 2026 08:53:23 -0700 Subject: [PATCH 01/12] feat(installer): use GitHub API as primary fetch with raw CDN fallback (#2248) MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8 Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit * feat(installer): use GitHub API as primary fetch with raw CDN fallback Corporate proxies commonly block raw.githubusercontent.com while allowing api.github.com. Add fetchGitHubFile() to RegistryClient that tries the GitHub Contents API first, falling back to the raw CDN transparently. Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.6 (1M context) * fix(installer): cap redirect depth and preserve dual-fallback errors Add maxRedirects parameter to fetch() and _fetchWithHeaders() to prevent unbounded redirect recursion. Wrap CDN fallback in try/catch and throw AggregateError with both API and CDN errors for better diagnostics. Extract marketplace repo coordinates into named constants in external-manager. * chore(installer): drop unused fetchJson and fetchGitHubJson Neither method has any callers. Also drop the corresponding test. * refactor(test): fold registry tests into test-installation-components No reason for RegistryClient tests to be a separate runner — the same file already tests the registry consumers in Suite 33. Drop test:registry from package.json scripts and quality gate. * fix(installer): include URL, API message, and rate-limit info in HTTP errors Non-2xx responses previously yielded bare `HTTP 403`. Now surface the request URL, GitHub's JSON error message (or body snippet), X-RateLimit-Reset when quota is exhausted, and Retry-After. Turns a mystery 403 into 'rate limit exhausted; resets at 2026-04-15T18:00:00Z' — the difference between 'try GITHUB_TOKEN' and a wild goose chase. --------- Co-authored-by: Claude Opus 4.6 (1M context) --- test/test-installation-components.js | 106 ++++++++++++++ tools/installer/modules/community-manager.js | 15 +- tools/installer/modules/external-manager.js | 7 +- tools/installer/modules/registry-client.js | 146 ++++++++++++++++++- 4 files changed, 259 insertions(+), 15 deletions(-) diff --git a/test/test-installation-components.js b/test/test-installation-components.js index f1c1be486..c5d3540b3 100644 --- a/test/test-installation-components.js +++ b/test/test-installation-components.js @@ -1926,6 +1926,112 @@ async function runTests() { console.log('');

Users edit `_bmad/custom/{skill-name}.yaml` (team, committed) or `{skill-name}.user.yaml` (personal, gitignored); customizations survive updates. Resolver is a Python script using PEP 723 inline metadata, invoked via `uv run` so deps auto-install into a cached isolated env on first call. This aligns with Anthropic's Agent Skills spec and BMB conventions, and keeps the dependency declared (scannable by pip-audit/Dependabot) rather than vendored. ## Design choices - **Agent identity is hardcoded** in SKILL.md (name, title, Overview prose) so skills can be invoked reliably by role *or* default name. Brand recognition is preserved; customization shapes behavior, not identity. - **Luminary-anchored personas** (e.g. "Channels Martin Fowler's pragmatism and Werner Vogels's cloud-scale realism") deliver ~55% token savings per agent while preserving distinctive voice beats. - **Universal per-field merge rules** with v6.1-compatible agent semantics: metadata shallow-merge, persona replace, critical_actions and memories append, menu merge-by-code, all else deep-merge. - **Workflow customization** shares the same surface — `bmad-product-brief` pilots `activation_steps_prepend`, `activation_steps_append`, and `skill_end` hooks that any workflow-style skill can adopt. ## Infrastructure - `_bmad/scripts/` houses shared Python scripts (resolver + future). - `_bmad/custom/` is provisioned empty with a seeded `.gitignore` for `*.user.yaml` on fresh installs. - Installer filters ensure `scripts/`, `custom/`, and sidecar-generated `memory/` directories are never treated as modules. - Dead v6.1 code cleaned up: `_config/agents/` no longer created, `metadata.capabilities` removed from schema and CSV manifest. --- .gitignore | 3 + docs/how-to/customize-bmad.md | 268 +++++++++++------- eslint.config.mjs | 4 +- package-lock.json | 42 +-- .../1-analysis/bmad-agent-analyst/SKILL.md | 97 ++++--- .../bmad-agent-analyst/customize.yaml | 44 +++ .../bmad-agent-tech-writer/SKILL.md | 93 +++--- .../bmad-agent-tech-writer/customize.yaml | 38 +++ .../1-analysis/bmad-product-brief/SKILL.md | 25 +- .../bmad-product-brief/customize.yaml | 6 + .../prompts/contextual-discovery.md | 14 +- .../prompts/draft-and-review.md | 10 +- .../bmad-product-brief/prompts/finalize.md | 4 +- .../prompts/guided-elicitation.md | 4 +- .../2-plan-workflows/bmad-agent-pm/SKILL.md | 95 ++++--- .../bmad-agent-pm/customize.yaml | 41 +++ .../bmad-agent-ux-designer/SKILL.md | 91 +++--- .../bmad-agent-ux-designer/customize.yaml | 26 ++ .../bmad-agent-architect/SKILL.md | 90 +++--- .../bmad-agent-architect/customize.yaml | 29 ++ .../4-implementation/bmad-agent-dev/SKILL.md | 112 ++++---- .../bmad-agent-dev/customize.yaml | 44 +++ src/scripts/resolve_customization.py | 248 ++++++++++++++++ tools/installer/core/install-paths.js | 9 +- tools/installer/core/installer.js | 66 ++++- tools/installer/core/manifest-generator.js | 5 +- tools/installer/modules/official-modules.js | 4 +- tools/validate-file-refs.js | 2 +- 28 files changed, 1088 insertions(+), 426 deletions(-) create mode 100644 src/bmm-skills/1-analysis/bmad-agent-analyst/customize.yaml create mode 100644 src/bmm-skills/1-analysis/bmad-agent-tech-writer/customize.yaml create mode 100644 src/bmm-skills/1-analysis/bmad-product-brief/customize.yaml create mode 100644 src/bmm-skills/2-plan-workflows/bmad-agent-pm/customize.yaml create mode 100644 src/bmm-skills/2-plan-workflows/bmad-agent-ux-designer/customize.yaml create mode 100644 src/bmm-skills/3-solutioning/bmad-agent-architect/customize.yaml create mode 100644 src/bmm-skills/4-implementation/bmad-agent-dev/customize.yaml create mode 100644 src/scripts/resolve_customization.py diff --git a/.gitignore b/.gitignore index b15ba6c17..e3fe614fb 100644 --- a/.gitignore +++ b/.gitignore @@ -50,6 +50,9 @@ z*/ _bmad _bmad-output + +# Personal customization files (team files are committed, personal files are not) +_bmad/custom/*.user.yaml .clinerules # .augment/ is gitignored except tracked config files — add exceptions explicitly .augment/* diff --git a/docs/how-to/customize-bmad.md b/docs/how-to/customize-bmad.md index e77d94a72..958887a25 100644 --- a/docs/how-to/customize-bmad.md +++ b/docs/how-to/customize-bmad.md @@ -1,172 +1,240 @@ --- title: 'How to Customize BMad' -description: Customize agents, workflows, and modules while preserving update compatibility +description: Customize agents and workflows while preserving update compatibility sidebar: order: 8 --- -Use the `.customize.yaml` files to tailor agent behavior, personas, and menus while preserving your changes across updates. +Tailor agent personas, inject domain context, add capabilities, and configure workflow behavior -- all without modifying installed files.

Apply Your Changes - -After editing, reinstall to apply changes: +On activation, the agent's SKILL.md runs a shared Python script that does the three-layer merge and returns the resolved `agent` block as JSON. The script uses [PEP 723 inline script metadata](https://peps.python.org/pep-0723/) to declare its dependency on PyYAML, and is designed to be invoked via [`uv`](https://docs.astral.sh/uv/): ```bash -npx bmad-method install +uv run {project-root}/_bmad/scripts/resolve_customization.py \ + --skill {skill-root} \ + --key agent ``` -The installer detects the existing installation and offers these options: +`uv run` reads the inline metadata, creates a cached isolated environment with PyYAML installed, and runs the script.

If `uv` isn't available, the script can be run with plain `python3` provided PyYAML is already installed (`pip install PyYAML`). -For customization-only changes, **Quick Update** is the fastest option. +`--skill` points at the skill's installed directory (where `customize.yaml` lives).

Files only appear when someone actively customizes. - -### Merge Rules (per field) - -| Field | Rule | -|---|---| -| `agent.metadata` | shallow merge -- scalar fields override | -| `agent.persona` | full replace -- if present in override, it replaces wholesale | -| `agent.critical_actions` | append -- override items are added after defaults | -| `agent.memories` | append | -| `agent.menu` | merge by `code` -- matching codes replace, new codes append | -| other tables | deep merge | -| other arrays | atomic replace | -| scalars | override wins | - ## Steps -### 1. Find the Skill's Customization Surface +### 1. Locate Customization Files -Look at the skill's `customize.yaml` in its installed directory. For example, the PM agent: +After installation, find one `.customize.yaml` file per agent in: ```text -.claude/skills/bmad-agent-pm/customize.yaml +_bmad/_config/agents/ +├── core-bmad-master.customize.yaml +├── bmm-dev.customize.yaml +├── bmm-pm.customize.yaml +└── ... (one file per installed agent) ``` -(Path varies by IDE -- Cursor uses `.cursor/skills/`, Cline uses `.cline/skills/`, and so on.) +### 2. Edit the Customization File -This file is the canonical schema. Every field you see is customizable. +Open the `.customize.yaml` file for the agent you want to modify. Every section is optional -- customize only what you need. -### 2. Create Your Override File +| Section | Behavior | Purpose | +| ------------------ | -------- | ----------------------------------------------- | +| `agent.metadata` | Replaces | Override the agent's display name | +| `persona` | Replaces | Set role, identity, style, and principles | +| `memories` | Appends | Add persistent context the agent always recalls | +| `menu` | Appends | Add custom menu items for workflows or prompts | +| `critical_actions` | Appends | Define startup instructions for the agent | +| `prompts` | Appends | Create reusable prompts for menu actions | -Create the `_bmad/custom/` directory in your project root if it doesn't exist. Then create a file named after the skill: +Sections marked **Replaces** overwrite the agent's defaults entirely. Sections marked **Appends** add to the existing configuration. -```text -_bmad/custom/ - bmad-agent-pm.yaml # team overrides (committed to git) - bmad-agent-pm.user.yaml # personal preferences (gitignored) -``` +**Agent Name** -Only include the fields you want to change. Unmentioned fields inherit from the layer below. - -### 3. Customize What You Need - -#### Agent Persona - -Change any combination of title, icon, role, identity, communication style, and principles. Anything under `agent.metadata` merges field-by-field; anything under `agent.persona` replaces the persona wholesale if you include it. - -:::note[Agent names are fixed] -The built-in BMad agents (Mary, John, Winston, Sally, Amelia, Paige) have hardcoded names. This is a deliberate design choice so every skill can be reliably invoked by role *or* default name — "hey Mary" always activates the analyst, no matter how the team has customized her behavior. If you genuinely need a differently-named agent, copy the skill folder, rename it, and ship it as a custom skill (a few-minute task). -::: - -Team override (shallow merge on metadata): +Change how the agent introduces itself: ```yaml -# _bmad/custom/bmad-agent-pm.yaml - agent: metadata: - title: Senior Product Lead - icon: "🏥" + name: 'Spongebob' # Default: "Amelia" ``` -Team override (full persona replacement): +**Persona** + +Replace the agent's personality, role, and communication style: ```yaml -agent: - persona: - role: "Senior Product Lead specializing in healthcare technology" - identity: | - 15-year product leader in healthcare technology and digital health - platforms. Deep expertise in EHR integrations and navigating - FDA/HIPAA regulatory landscapes. - communication_style: | - Precise, regulatory-aware, asks compliance-shaped questions early. - principles: | - - Ship nothing that can't pass an FDA audit. - - User value first, compliance always. +persona: + role: 'Senior Full-Stack Engineer' + identity: 'Lives in a pineapple (under the sea)' + communication_style: 'Spongebob annoying' + principles: + - 'Never Nester, Spongebob Devs hate nesting more than 2 levels deep' + - 'Favor composition over inheritance' ``` -Because `agent.persona` is replace-wholesale, include every persona field you want the agent to have -- anything omitted will be blank. +The `persona` section replaces the entire default persona, so include all four fields if you set it. -#### Memories +**Memories** -Persistent facts the agent always recalls during the session: +Add persistent context the agent will always remember: ```yaml -agent: - memories: - - "Our org is AWS-only -- do not propose GCP or Azure." - - "All PRDs require legal sign-off before engineering kickoff." - - "Target users are clinicians, not patients -- frame examples accordingly." +memories: + - 'Works at Krusty Krab' + - 'Favorite Celebrity: David Hasselhoff' + - 'Learned in Epic 1 that it is not cool to just pretend that tests have passed' ``` -Memories append: your items are added after defaults. +**Menu Items** -#### Critical Actions - -Procedural startup steps the agent must execute before presenting its menu: +Add custom entries to the agent's display menu. Each item needs a `trigger`, a target (`workflow` path or `action` reference), and a `description`: ```yaml -agent: - critical_actions: - - "Scan {project-root}/docs/compliance/ and load any HIPAA-related documents as context." - - "Read {project-root}/_bmad/custom/company-glossary.md if it exists." +menu: + - trigger: my-workflow + workflow: 'my-custom/workflows/my-workflow.yaml' + description: My custom workflow + - trigger: deploy + action: '#deploy-prompt' + description: Deploy to production ``` -Critical actions append too. They run top-to-bottom on every activation. +**Critical Actions** -#### Menu Customization - -Add new capabilities or replace existing ones using `code` as the merge key. Each menu item has exactly one of `skill` (invokes a registered skill) or `prompt` (executes the text directly). +Define instructions that run when the agent starts up: ```yaml -agent: - menu: - # Replace the existing CE item with a custom skill - - code: CE - description: "Create Epics using our delivery framework" - skill: custom-create-epics - - # Add a new item (code RC doesn't exist in defaults) - - code: RC - description: "Run compliance pre-check" - prompt: | - Read {project-root}/_bmad/custom/compliance-checklist.md - and scan all documents in {planning_artifacts} against it. - Report any gaps and cite the relevant regulatory section. +critical_actions: + - 'Check the CI Pipelines with the XYZ Skill and alert user on wake if anything is urgently needing attention' ``` -Items not listed in your override keep their defaults. +**Custom Prompts** -#### Referencing Files - -When a field's text needs to point at a file (in `memories`, `critical_actions`, or a menu item's `prompt`), use a full path rooted at `{project-root}`. Even if the file sits next to your override in `_bmad/custom/`, spell out the full path: `{project-root}/_bmad/custom/info.md`. The agent resolves `{project-root}` at runtime. - -### 4. Personal vs Team - -**Team file** (`bmad-agent-pm.yaml`): Committed to git. Shared across the org. Use for compliance rules, company persona, custom capabilities. - -**Personal file** (`bmad-agent-pm.user.yaml`): Gitignored automatically. Use for tone adjustments, personal workflow preferences, and private memories. +Create reusable prompts that menu items can reference with `action="#id"`: ```yaml -# _bmad/custom/bmad-agent-pm.user.yaml - -agent: - memories: - - "Always include a rough complexity estimate (low/medium/high) when presenting options." +prompts: + - id: deploy-prompt + content: | + Deploy the current branch to production: + 1. Run all tests + 2. Build the project + 3. Execute deployment script ``` -## How Resolution Works +### 3. Apply Your Changes -On activation, the agent's SKILL.md runs a shared Python script that does the three-layer merge and returns the resolved `agent` block as JSON. The script uses [PEP 723 inline script metadata](https://peps.python.org/pep-0723/) to declare its dependency on PyYAML, and is designed to be invoked via [`uv`](https://docs.astral.sh/uv/): +After editing, reinstall to apply changes: ```bash -uv run {project-root}/_bmad/scripts/resolve_customization.py \ - --skill {skill-root} \ - --key agent +npx bmad-method install ``` -`uv run` reads the inline metadata, creates a cached isolated environment with PyYAML installed, and runs the script. First run takes a few seconds while the env is built; subsequent runs reuse the cache and are instant. +The installer detects the existing installation and offers these options: -**Requirements**: Python 3.10+ and `uv` (install via `brew install uv`, `pip install uv`, or [the official installer](https://docs.astral.sh/uv/getting-started/installation/)). If `uv` isn't available, the script can be run with plain `python3` provided PyYAML is already installed (`pip install PyYAML`). +| Option | What It Does | +| ---------------------------- | -------------------------------------------------------------------- | +| **Quick Update** | Updates all modules to the latest version and applies customizations | +| **Modify BMad Installation** | Full installation flow for adding or removing modules | -`--skill` points at the skill's installed directory (where `customize.yaml` lives). The skill name is derived from the directory's basename, and the script looks up `_bmad/custom/{skill-name}.yaml` and `{skill-name}.user.yaml` automatically. - -Useful invocations: - -```bash -# Resolve the full agent block -uv run {project-root}/_bmad/scripts/resolve_customization.py \ - --skill /abs/path/to/bmad-agent-pm \ - --key agent - -# Resolve a single field -uv run {project-root}/_bmad/scripts/resolve_customization.py \ - --skill /abs/path/to/bmad-agent-pm \ - --key agent.metadata.title - -# Full dump (everything under agent plus any other top-level keys) -uv run {project-root}/_bmad/scripts/resolve_customization.py \ - --skill /abs/path/to/bmad-agent-pm -``` - -Output is always JSON. If the script is unavailable on a given platform, the SKILL.md tells the agent to read the three YAML files directly and apply the same merge rules. - -## Workflow Customization - -Some workflows expose their own customization surface (output paths, review settings, section toggles, etc.) via the same `customize.yaml` + override mechanism. The merge rules above apply to any top-level key, not just `agent` -- so a workflow might use `workflow`, `config`, or other keys to organize its fields. Check the workflow's `customize.yaml` for its specific shape. +For customization-only changes, **Quick Update** is the fastest option. ## Troubleshooting -**Customization not appearing?** +**Changes not appearing?** -- Verify your file is in `_bmad/custom/` with the correct skill name -- Check YAML indentation (spaces only, no tabs) and make sure block scalars (`|`) are correctly indented -- For agents, customization lives under `agent:` -- keys written below it belong to that key until another top-level key begins -- Remember `agent.persona` is replace-wholesale: include every persona field you want, not just the ones you're changing +- Run `npx bmad-method install` and select **Quick Update** to apply changes +- Check that your YAML syntax is valid (indentation matters) +- Verify you edited the correct `.customize.yaml` file for the agent -**Need to see what's customizable?** +**Agent not loading?** -- Read the skill's `customize.yaml` -- every field there is customizable +- Check for YAML syntax errors using an online YAML validator +- Ensure you did not leave fields empty after uncommenting them +- Try reverting to the original template and rebuilding -**Need to reset?** +**Need to reset an agent?** -- Delete your override file from `_bmad/custom/` -- the skill falls back to its built-in defaults +- Clear or delete the agent's `.customize.yaml` file +- Run `npx bmad-method install` and select **Quick Update** to restore defaults + +## Workflow Customization + +Customization of existing BMad Method workflows and skills is coming soon. + +## Module Customization + +Guidance on building expansion modules and customizing existing modules is coming soon. diff --git a/eslint.config.mjs b/eslint.config.mjs index 1bf3e270e..9282fdacb 100644 --- a/eslint.config.mjs +++ b/eslint.config.mjs @@ -84,9 +84,9 @@ export default [ }, }, -

Users no longer need uv, pip, or a virtualenv — plain python3 (3.11+) is sufficient, since tomllib shipped in the standard library. ## Schema changes vs PR #2282 - Flat agent schema: fields live directly under [agent], no nested metadata/persona sub-tables. Easier to author, less indentation. - Non-configurable identity: name and title are declared in customize.toml as source-of-truth metadata (for future skill-manifest generation) but SKILL.md ignores overrides there — identity is hardcoded to preserve brand recognition. - role redefined: now describes what the skill does for the user within its module phase, not a restatement of the title. - persistent_facts replaces the activation-time file-context load AND the old memories concept. Entries can be literal sentences or file: prefixed paths/globs; avoids collision with the upcoming runtime memory sidecar. - activation_steps_prepend / activation_steps_append harmonized across agents and workflows (replaces agent-specific critical_actions). - [workflow] namespace mirrors [agent] for workflow customization. Same four structural rules, same field vocabulary. ## Resolver (src/scripts/resolve_customization.py) Four purely structural merge rules, zero field-name hardcoding: - Scalars: override wins - Tables: deep merge - Arrays of tables where every item has `code` or `id`: merge by that key (matching keys replace, new keys append) - Any other array: append No removal mechanism — overrides cannot delete base items. Fork the skill or override by code with a no-op value to suppress defaults. ## Agents ported (6) All six BMad agents now ship customize.toml + rewritten SKILL.md: analyst (Mary), tech-writer (Paige), pm (John), ux-designer (Sally), architect (Winston), dev (Amelia). Each uses the same 8-step activation template: resolve → execute prepend → adopt persona → load persistent facts → load config → greet (with {agent.icon}) → execute append → dispatch or present menu. Step 8 supports fast-path invocation: "hey Mary, let's brainstorm" dispatches the matching menu item directly after greeting, skipping the menu render when intent is clear. Chat, clarifying questions, and bmad-help remain available when nothing on the menu fits. ## Installer + tooling - _bmad/scripts/ provisioned on install (copies src/scripts/) - _bmad/custom/ seeded with .gitignore for *.user.toml on fresh install - Non-module-dir filter extended to skip _memory, memory, docs, scripts, and custom when scanning for modules - Dead _config/agents/ directory no longer created - metadata.capabilities removed from agent-manifest.csv and schema - eslint config extended to cover src/scripts/** - validate-file-refs.js knows about custom/ as install-only ## Deferred for follow-up - bmad-product-brief workflow port (the pilot that demonstrates [workflow] + on_complete) - Translated docs (cs/fr/vi-vn/zh-cn) — regenerate from English * feat(skills): port bmad-product-brief to TOML workflow customization Completes the customization surface rollout by giving the product-brief workflow the same override model as the six BMad agents, under the [workflow] namespace instead of [agent]. ## customize.toml Mirrors the agent shape under [workflow] with: - activation_steps_prepend / activation_steps_append (harmonized across agents and workflows — same field names, same append semantics) - persistent_facts with the file: convention, seeded with file:{project-root}/**/project-context.md - on_complete scalar (renamed from PR #2282's skill_end for clarity — reads cleaner as "what runs when the workflow completes") ## SKILL.md 7-step workflow activation: 1. Resolve workflow block 2. Execute prepend steps 3. Load persistent facts (file: or literal) 4. Load config 5. Greet if not already 6. Execute append steps 7. Stage 1 — Understand Intent python3 + stdlib tomllib invocation; no uv required. ## Prompt file changes - Path normalization: ../agents/ → agents/, ../resources/ → resources/, bare foo.md → prompts/foo.md. All references now resolve from the skill root (matches the convention documented in SKILL.md). - Paths: meta-line added to each of the 4 prompt files that reference other files, reinforcing "bare paths resolve from skill root" so the LLM doesn't lose the convention when operating two hops into a prompt chain. - finalize.md terminal stage now calls the resolver for workflow.on_complete — non-empty values run as the final step. ## Validation - Resolver output verified: 4 workflow fields returned cleanly. - validate-file-refs.js: 254 files scanned, 139 refs checked, 0 broken. - test:refs: passing. * docs(skills): enterprise customization recipes + workflow template variable Three independent improvements bundled because they share the same surface (workflow/agent customization) and landed from the same design discussion: ## Fallback sentence disambiguated (7 SKILL.md files) The "if the script fails" fallback used to say `{project-root}/_bmad/ custom/{skill-name}.toml` for the team override and then just `{skill- name}.user.toml` for the user override, leaving the user file's location implicit. LLMs could reasonably guess skill root or project root instead. Replaced with an unambiguous numbered list that spells out the full path for every file in the merge chain. ## Product-brief: stage promotion + brief_template variable - Promoted `## Stage 1: Understand Intent` from a nested step inside "On Activation" to a top-level section. The previous "Step 7: Stage 1 — Understand Intent → Proceed to Stage 1 below" was mechanical numbering pretending to be a step. Activation now ends cleanly at Step 6; Stage 1 is a peer section. - Added `brief_template` as a workflow-level scalar customization defaulting to `resources/brief-template.md`. Stage 4 reads `{workflow.brief_template}` instead of the hardcoded path, so orgs can point at their own template under `{project-root}/...` without forking the skill. ## New doc: docs/how-to/extend-bmad-for-your-org.md Four worked recipes that together cover most enterprise scenarios: 1. Shape an agent across every workflow it dispatches (dev agent + Context7 MCP + Linear search — the highest-leverage pattern) 2. Enforce org conventions inside a specific workflow (product-brief + compliance-field persistent_facts) 3. Publish completed outputs to external systems (product-brief + Confluence + Jira via MCP, gated on user confirmation for Jira) 4. Swap in your own output template (product-brief + brief_template variable swap) Opens with the two-layer mental model (agent spans workflows, workflow is local) so readers pick the right granularity before reading any recipe. Closes with a "Combining Recipes" section showing all four composed. Cross-linked from customize-bmad.md. ## Validation - Resolver: workflow.brief_template returns the default cleanly. - validate-file-refs.js: 254 files scanned, 146 refs checked (+7 from this commit), 0 broken. * docs(skills): encourage CLAUDE.md/AGENTS.md reinforcement of critical rules Added a "Reinforce Global Rules in Your IDE's Session File" section to extend-bmad-for-your-org.md. BMad customizations only load when a skill activates, but IDE session files (CLAUDE.md, AGENTS.md, cursor rules, copilot-instructions) load every turn — worth restating the most critical rules there too so they survive ad-hoc chat outside a BMad skill. Includes a one-line example reinforcing the Recipe 1 Context7 rule, plus a scope table that clarifies what each layer is for: - IDE session file: universal, every session, keep succinct - Agent customization: persona-specific, every dispatched workflow - Workflow customization: one workflow run Emphasizes brevity — noise in the session file crowds out signal. * docs(skills): add Named Agents explanation doc New docs/explanation/named-agents.md walking through the three-legged stool (skills + named agents + customization) with the "Hey Mary, let's brainstorm" activation flow as the narrative thread. Covers: - Why named agents vs menu-driven or prompt-driven alternatives - The 8-step activation flow and what each step contributes - How customization scales the model beyond a single developer - Cross-links to the how-to docs for implementation details Sits alongside brainstorming.md, quick-dev.md, party-mode.md in the explanation folder — feature narratives for users who want to understand why BMad is designed the way it is, not just how to use it. * docs(skills): clarify that keyed-merge requires a single identifier key per array Review feedback (PR #2284) flagged that the merge-rules wording was ambiguous: "every item has a `code` or `id` field" could reasonably be read as "each item individually has at least one of the two", allowing arrays to mix `code` and `id` across items. The resolver has always required all items share the *same* identifier key (all `code`, or all `id`). Mixed arrays fall through to append — intentional, because mixing identifier keys within one array is a schema smell and any guess about which key should merge creates a worse trap than the append-fallback. Clarified in three places: - Merge-rules table in customize-bmad.md: "every item shares the **same** identifier field" - `code`/`id` convention paragraph: "pick **one** convention ... and stick with it across the whole array" - Resolver docstring and `_detect_keyed_merge_field` docstring: explicit note that mixed arrays fall through with rationale No behavior change. * docs(skills): address CodeRabbit review — fallback rules, OS claim, headless greeting Three fixes from PR #2284 review feedback: ## 1. Fallback merge wording (7 SKILL.md files) Every SKILL.md told the LLM to merge the three customization files "in priority order (later wins)" when the resolver fails. That reads as shallow last-write-wins — but the resolver does structural merge (scalars override, tables deep-merge, code/id-keyed arrays merge by key, other arrays append). Following the old wording manually would have silently stripped base `principles`, `persistent_facts`, and `menu` items whenever a team override was present. Expanded the fallback sentence to restate the four structural rules explicitly, matching the resolver's behavior. Applied to all 6 agents + bmad-product-brief workflow. ## 2. Python 3.11 / OS shipping claim (customize-bmad.md) The docs claimed "macOS 13+, Ubuntu 22.04+, Debian 12+, Fedora 37+ all ship 3.11 or newer." Inaccurate — Ubuntu 22.04 defaults `python3` to 3.10.6 (3.11 is a separate package), and macOS doesn't really ship Python by default anymore. Replaced with honest guidance: check `python3 --version` and note that macOS without Homebrew and Ubuntu 22.04 default to 3.10 or earlier. ## 3. Autonomous mode greeting gate (bmad-product-brief) Product-brief's activation-mode detection documents autonomous mode as "produce complete brief without interaction" — but Step 5 greeted unconditionally, adding conversational output before the headless artifact.

You can rewrite Mary's principles or add menu items; you can't rename her — that's deliberate. Brand recognition survives customization so "hey Mary" always activates the analyst, regardless of how a team has shaped her behavior. + +## The Activation Flow + +When you invoke a named agent, eight steps run in order: + +1. **Resolve the agent block** — merge the shipped `customize.toml` with team and personal overrides, via a Python resolver using stdlib `tomllib` +2. **Execute prepend steps** — any pre-flight behavior the team configured +3. **Adopt persona** — hardcoded identity plus customized role, communication style, principles +4. **Load persistent facts** — org rules, compliance notes, optionally files loaded via a `file:` prefix (e.g., `file:{project-root}/docs/project-context.md`) +5. **Load config** — user name, communication language, output language, artifact paths +6. **Greet** — personalized, in the configured language, with the agent's emoji prefix so you can see at a glance who's speaking +7. **Execute append steps** — any post-greet setup the team configured +8. **Dispatch or present the menu** — if your opening message maps to a menu item, go directly; otherwise render the menu and wait for input + +Step 8 is where the magic lands. "Hey Mary, let's brainstorm" skips rendering because `bmad-brainstorming` is an obvious match for `BP` on Mary's menu. If you say something ambiguous, she asks — once, briefly, not as a confirmation ritual. If nothing fits, she continues the conversation normally. + +## Why Not Just a Menu? + +Menus force the user to meet the tool halfway. You have to remember that brainstorming lives under code `BP` on the analyst agent, not the PM agent. You have to know which persona owns which capabilities. That's cognitive overhead the tool is making you carry. + +Named agents invert it. You say what you want, to whom, in whatever words feel natural. The agent knows who they are and what they do. When your intent is clear enough, they just go. + +The menu is still there as a fallback — show it when you're exploring, skip it when you're not. + +## Why Not Just a Blank Prompt? + +Blank prompts assume you know the magic words. "Help me brainstorm" might work; "let's ideate on my SaaS idea" might not. Results vary based on how you phrase the ask. You become responsible for prompt engineering. + +Named agents bring structure without taking freedom. The persona is consistent, the capabilities are discoverable, the menu is always one `bmad-help` away. You don't have to guess what the agent can do — but you also don't have to consult a manual to do it. + +## Customization as a First-Class Citizen + +The customization model is why this scales beyond a single developer. + +Every agent ships a `customize.toml` with sensible defaults. Teams commit overrides to `_bmad/custom/bmad-agent-{role}.toml`. Individuals can layer personal preferences in `.user.toml` (gitignored). The resolver merges all three at activation time with predictable structural rules. + +Concrete example: a team commits a single file telling Amelia to always use the Context7 MCP tool for library docs and to fall back to Linear when a story isn't in the local epics list. Every dev workflow Amelia dispatches — dev-story, quick-dev, create-story, code-review — inherits that behavior. No source edits, no forks, no per-workflow duplication. + +For the full customization surface and worked examples, see: + +- [How to Customize BMad](../how-to/customize-bmad.md) — the reference for what's customizable and how merge works +- [How to Expand BMad for Your Organization](../how-to/expand-bmad-for-your-org.md) — four worked recipes spanning agent-wide rules, workflow conventions, external publishing, and template swaps + +## The Bigger Idea + +Most AI assistants today are either menus or prompts. Both shift cognitive load onto the user. Named agents plus customizable skills do something different: they let you talk to a teammate who already knows the work, and let your organization shape that teammate without forking. + +The next time you type "Hey Mary, let's brainstorm" and she just gets on with it — notice what didn't happen. No slash command. No menu navigation. No awkward reminder of what she can do.

If you need to suppress a default menu item, override it by `code` with a no-op description or prompt. If you need to restructure an array more deeply, fork the skill. + +#### The `code` / `id` convention + +BMad uses `code` (short identifier like `"BP"` or `"R1"`) and `id` (longer stable identifier) as merge keys on arrays of tables. If you author a custom array-of-tables that should be replaceable-by-key rather than append-only, pick **one** convention (either `code` on every item, or `id` on every item) and stick with it across the whole array. Mixing `code` on some items and `id` on others falls back to append — the resolver won't guess which key to merge on. + +### Some agent fields are read-only + +`agent.name` and `agent.title` live in `customize.toml` as source-of-truth metadata, but the agent's SKILL.md doesn't read them at runtime — they're hardcoded identity. Putting `name = "Bob"` in an override file has no effect. If you genuinely need a different-named agent, copy the skill folder, rename it, and ship it as a custom skill. + ## Steps -### 1. Locate Customization Files +### 1. Find the Skill's Customization Surface -After installation, find one `.customize.yaml` file per agent in: +Look at the skill's `customize.toml` in its installed directory. For example, the PM agent: ```text -_bmad/_config/agents/ -├── core-bmad-master.customize.yaml -├── bmm-dev.customize.yaml -├── bmm-pm.customize.yaml -└── ... (one file per installed agent) +.claude/skills/bmad-agent-pm/customize.toml ``` -### 2. Edit the Customization File +(Path varies by IDE -- Cursor uses `.cursor/skills/`, Cline uses `.cline/skills/`, and so on.) -Open the `.customize.yaml` file for the agent you want to modify. Every section is optional -- customize only what you need. +This file is the canonical schema. Every field you see is customizable (excluding the read-only identity fields noted above). -| Section | Behavior | Purpose | -| ------------------ | -------- | ----------------------------------------------- | -| `agent.metadata` | Replaces | Override the agent's display name | -| `persona` | Replaces | Set role, identity, style, and principles | -| `memories` | Appends | Add persistent context the agent always recalls | -| `menu` | Appends | Add custom menu items for workflows or prompts | -| `critical_actions` | Appends | Define startup instructions for the agent | -| `prompts` | Appends | Create reusable prompts for menu actions | +### 2. Create Your Override File -Sections marked **Replaces** overwrite the agent's defaults entirely. Sections marked **Appends** add to the existing configuration. +Create the `_bmad/custom/` directory in your project root if it doesn't exist. Then create a file named after the skill: -**Agent Name** - -Change how the agent introduces itself: - -```yaml -agent: - metadata: - name: 'Spongebob' # Default: "Amelia" +```text +_bmad/custom/ + bmad-agent-pm.toml # team overrides (committed to git) + bmad-agent-pm.user.toml # personal preferences (gitignored) ``` -**Persona** +:::caution[Do NOT copy the whole `customize.toml`] +Override files are **sparse**. Include only the fields you're changing — nothing else. Every field you omit is inherited automatically from the layer below (team from defaults, user from team-or-defaults). -Replace the agent's personality, role, and communication style: +Copying the full `customize.toml` into an override is actively harmful: the next update ships new defaults, but your override file locks in the old values. You'll silently drift out of sync with every release. +::: -```yaml -persona: - role: 'Senior Full-Stack Engineer' - identity: 'Lives in a pineapple (under the sea)' - communication_style: 'Spongebob annoying' - principles: - - 'Never Nester, Spongebob Devs hate nesting more than 2 levels deep' - - 'Favor composition over inheritance' +**Example — changing the icon and adding one principle**: + +```toml +# _bmad/custom/bmad-agent-pm.toml +# Just the fields I'm changing. Everything else inherits. + +[agent] +icon = "🏥" +principles = [ + "Ship nothing that can't pass an FDA audit.", +] ``` -The `persona` section replaces the entire default persona, so include all four fields if you set it. +This appends the new principle to the defaults (leaving the shipped principles intact) and replaces the icon. Every other field stays as shipped. -**Memories** +### 3. Customize What You Need -Add persistent context the agent will always remember: +All examples below assume BMad's flat agent schema. Fields live directly under `[agent]` — no nested `metadata` or `persona` sub-tables. -```yaml -memories: - - 'Works at Krusty Krab' - - 'Favorite Celebrity: David Hasselhoff' - - 'Learned in Epic 1 that it is not cool to just pretend that tests have passed' +#### Scalars (icon, role, identity, communication_style) + +Scalar overrides simply win.

Run all tests - 2. Build the project - 3. Execute deployment script +When a field's text needs to point at a file (in `persistent_facts`, `activation_steps_prepend`/`activation_steps_append`, or a menu item's `prompt`), use a full path rooted at `{project-root}`. Even if the file sits next to your override in `_bmad/custom/`, spell out the full path: `{project-root}/_bmad/custom/info.md`. The agent resolves `{project-root}` at runtime. + +### 4.

Apply Your Changes +## How Resolution Works -After editing, reinstall to apply changes: +On activation, the agent's SKILL.md runs a shared Python script that does the three-layer merge and returns the resolved block as JSON. The script uses the Python standard library's `tomllib` module (no external dependencies), so plain `python3` is enough: ```bash -npx bmad-method install +python3 {project-root}/_bmad/scripts/resolve_customization.py \ + --skill {skill-root} \ + --key agent ``` -The installer detects the existing installation and offers these options: +**Requirements**: Python 3.11+ (earlier versions don't include `tomllib`). No `pip install`, no `uv`, no virtualenv. Check with `python3 --version` — some common platforms (macOS without Homebrew, Ubuntu 22.04) default `python3` to 3.10 or earlier even when 3.11+ is available to install separately. -| Option | What It Does | -| ---------------------------- | -------------------------------------------------------------------- | -| **Quick Update** | Updates all modules to the latest version and applies customizations | -| **Modify BMad Installation** | Full installation flow for adding or removing modules | +`--skill` points at the skill's installed directory (where `customize.toml` lives). The skill name is derived from the directory's basename, and the script looks up `_bmad/custom/{skill-name}.toml` and `{skill-name}.user.toml` automatically. -For customization-only changes, **Quick Update** is the fastest option. +Useful invocations: -## Troubleshooting +```bash +# Resolve the full agent block +python3 {project-root}/_bmad/scripts/resolve_customization.py \ + --skill /abs/path/to/bmad-agent-pm \ + --key agent -**Changes not appearing?** +# Resolve a single field +python3 {project-root}/_bmad/scripts/resolve_customization.py \ + --skill /abs/path/to/bmad-agent-pm \ + --key agent.icon -- Run `npx bmad-method install` and select **Quick Update** to apply changes -- Check that your YAML syntax is valid (indentation matters) -- Verify you edited the correct `.customize.yaml` file for the agent +# Full dump +python3 {project-root}/_bmad/scripts/resolve_customization.py \ + --skill /abs/path/to/bmad-agent-pm +``` -**Agent not loading?** - -- Check for YAML syntax errors using an online YAML validator -- Ensure you did not leave fields empty after uncommenting them -- Try reverting to the original template and rebuilding - -**Need to reset an agent?** - -- Clear or delete the agent's `.customize.yaml` file -- Run `npx bmad-method install` and select **Quick Update** to restore defaults +Output is always JSON. If the script is unavailable on a given platform, the SKILL.md tells the agent to read the three TOML files directly and apply the same merge rules. ## Workflow Customization -Customization of existing BMad Method workflows and skills is coming soon. +Workflows (skills that drive multi-step processes like `bmad-product-brief`) share the same override mechanism as agents. Their customizable surface lives under `[workflow]` instead of `[agent]`, keeping the two namespaces cleanly separated: -## Module Customization +```toml +# _bmad/custom/bmad-product-brief.toml -Guidance on building expansion modules and customizing existing modules is coming soon. +[workflow] +# Same prepend/append semantics as agents — runs before and after the workflow's +# own activation steps.

Override wins. +on_complete = "Summarize the brief in three bullets and offer to email it via the gws-gmail-send skill." +``` + +The same field conventions cross the agent/workflow boundary: `activation_steps_prepend`/`activation_steps_append`, `persistent_facts` (with `file:` refs), menu-style `[[…]]` tables with `code`/`id` for keyed merge. The resolver applies the same four structural rules regardless of the top-level key. SKILL.md references follow the namespace: `{workflow.activation_steps_prepend}`, `{workflow.persistent_facts}`, `{workflow.on_complete}`. Any additional fields a workflow exposes (output paths, toggles, review settings, stage flags) follow the same merge rules based on their shape.

Highest-leverage pattern. + +**Example — Amelia (dev agent) always uses Context7 for library docs, and falls back to Linear when a story isn't found in the epics list:** + +```toml +# _bmad/custom/bmad-agent-dev.toml + +[agent] + +# Applied on every activation. Carries into dev-story, quick-dev, +# create-story, code-review, qa-generate — every skill Amelia dispatches. +persistent_facts = [ + "For any library documentation lookup (React, TypeScript, Zod, Prisma, etc.), call the context7 MCP tool (`mcp__context7__resolve_library_id` then `mcp__context7__get_library_docs`) before relying on training-data knowledge. Up-to-date docs trump memorized APIs.", + "When a story reference isn't found in {planning_artifacts}/epics-and-stories.md, search Linear via `mcp__linear__search_issues` using the story ID or title before asking the user to clarify. If Linear returns a match, treat it as the authoritative story source.", +] +``` + +**Why this is powerful:** Two sentences reshape every dev workflow in the org. No per-workflow duplication, no source changes, no forks. Every new engineer who pulls the repo inherits the conventions automatically. + +**Team file vs personal file:** +- `bmad-agent-dev.toml` — committed to git; applies to the whole team +- `bmad-agent-dev.user.toml` — gitignored; personal preferences layered on top + +## Recipe 2: Enforce Organizational Conventions Inside a Specific Workflow + +**Use case:** Shape the *content* of a workflow's output so it meets compliance, audit, or downstream-consumer requirements. + +**Example — every product brief must include compliance fields, and the agent knows about the org's publishing conventions:** + +```toml +# _bmad/custom/bmad-product-brief.toml + +[workflow] + +persistent_facts = [ + "Every brief must include an 'Owner' field, a 'Target Release' field, and a 'Security Review Status' field.", + "Non-commercial briefs (internal tools, research projects) must still include a user-value section, but can omit market differentiation.", + "file:{project-root}/docs/enterprise/brief-publishing-conventions.md", +] +``` + +**What happens:** The facts load during Step 3 of the workflow's activation. When the agent drafts the brief, it knows about the required fields and the enterprise conventions document. The shipped default (`file:{project-root}/**/project-context.md`) still loads — this is an append. + +## Recipe 3: Publish Completed Outputs to External Systems + +**Use case:** Once the workflow produces its output, automatically publish to enterprise systems of record (Confluence, Notion, SharePoint) and open follow-up work (Jira, Linear, Asana). + +**Example — briefs auto-publish to Confluence and offer optional Jira epic creation:** + +```toml +# _bmad/custom/bmad-product-brief.toml + +[workflow] + +# Terminal hook. Scalar override replaces the empty default wholesale. +on_complete = """ +Publish and offer follow-up: + +1. Read the finalized brief file path from the prior step. +2. Call `mcp__atlassian__confluence_create_page` with: + - space: "PRODUCT" + - parent: "Product Briefs" + - title: the brief's title + - body: the brief's markdown contents + Capture the returned page URL. +3. Tell the user: "Brief published to Confluence: ". +4. Ask: "Want me to open a Jira epic for this brief now?" +5. If yes, call `mcp__atlassian__jira_create_issue` with: + - type: "Epic" + - project: "PROD" + - summary: the brief's title + - description: a short summary plus a link back to the Confluence page. + Report the epic key and URL. +6. If no, exit cleanly. + +If either MCP tool fails, report the failure, print the brief path, +and ask the user to publish manually. +""" +``` + +**Why `on_complete` and not `activation_steps_append`:** `on_complete` runs exactly once, at the terminal stage, after the workflow's main output is written. It's the right moment to publish artifacts. `activation_steps_append` runs every activation, before the workflow does its work. + +**Tradeoffs:** +- **Confluence publication is non-destructive** — always runs on completion +- **Jira epic creation is visible to the whole team** and kicks off sprint-planning signals — gate on user confirmation +- **Graceful fallback** — if MCP tools fail, hand off to the user rather than silently dropping the output + +## Recipe 4: Swap in Your Own Output Template + +**Use case:** The default output structure doesn't match your organization's expected format, or different orgs in the same repo need different templates. + +**Example — point the product-brief workflow at an enterprise-owned template:** + +```toml +# _bmad/custom/bmad-product-brief.toml + +[workflow] +brief_template = "{project-root}/docs/enterprise/brief-template.md" +``` + +**How it works:** The workflow's `customize.toml` ships with `brief_template = "resources/brief-template.md"` (bare path, resolves from skill root). Your override points at a file under `{project-root}`, so the agent reads your template in Stage 4 instead of the shipped one. + +**Template authoring tips:** +- Keep templates in `{project-root}/docs/` or `{project-root}/_bmad/custom/templates/` so they version alongside the override file +- Use the same structural conventions as the shipped template (section headings, frontmatter) — the agent adapts to what's there +- For multi-org repos, use `.user.toml` to let individual teams point at their own templates without touching the committed team file + +## Reinforce Global Rules in Your IDE's Session File + +BMad customizations load when a skill is activated. But many IDE tools also load a global instruction file at the **start of every session**, before any skill runs — `CLAUDE.md`, `AGENTS.md`, `.cursor/rules/`, `.github/copilot-instructions.md`, etc. For rules that should hold even outside BMad skills, restate the critical ones there too. + +**When to double up:** +- A rule is important enough that a plain chat conversation (no skill active) should still follow it +- You want belt-and-suspenders enforcement because training-data defaults might otherwise pull the model off-course +- The rule is concise enough to repeat without bloating the session file + +**Example — one line in the repo's `CLAUDE.md` reinforcing the dev-agent rule from Recipe 1:** + +```markdown + +``` + +One sentence. Loads every session. Pairs with the `bmad-agent-dev.toml` customization so the rule applies both inside Amelia's workflows and during ad-hoc chats with the assistant. No duplication of effort — each layer owns its scope: + +| Layer | Scope | Use for | +|---|---|---| +| IDE session file (`CLAUDE.md` / `AGENTS.md`) | Every session, before any skill activates | Short, universal rules that should survive outside BMad | +| BMad agent customization | Every workflow the agent dispatches | Agent-persona-specific behavior | +| BMad workflow customization | One workflow run | Workflow-specific output shape, publishing hooks, templates | + +Keep the IDE file **succinct**. A dozen well-chosen lines are more effective than a sprawling list — models read it every turn, and noise crowds out signal. + +## Combining Recipes + +All four recipes compose. A realistic enterprise override for `bmad-product-brief` might set `persistent_facts` (Recipe 2), `on_complete` (Recipe 3), and `brief_template` (Recipe 4) in a single file. The agent-level rule (Recipe 1) lives in a separate file under the agent's name and applies in parallel. + +```toml +# _bmad/custom/bmad-product-brief.toml (workflow-level) + +[workflow] +persistent_facts = ["..."] +brief_template = "{project-root}/docs/enterprise/brief-template.md" +on_complete = """ ... """ +``` + +```toml +# _bmad/custom/bmad-agent-analyst.toml (agent-level — Mary dispatches product-brief) + +[agent] +persistent_facts = ["Always include a 'Regulatory Review' section when the domain involves healthcare, finance, or children's data."] +``` + +Result: Mary loads the regulatory-review rule at persona activation. When the user picks the product-brief menu item, the workflow loads its own conventions on top, writes to the enterprise template, and publishes to Confluence on completion. Every layer contributes; none of them required editing BMad source. + +## Troubleshooting + +**Override not taking effect?** Check that the file is under `_bmad/custom/` with the exact skill directory name (e.g. `bmad-agent-dev.toml`, not `bmad-dev.toml`). See [How to Customize BMad](./customize-bmad.md#troubleshooting). + +**MCP tool name unknown?** Use the exact name the MCP server exposes in the current session. Ask Claude Code to list available MCP tools if unsure — hardcoded names in `persistent_facts` or `on_complete` won't work if the MCP server isn't connected. + +**Pattern doesn't apply to my setup?** The recipes above are illustrative. The underlying machinery (three-layer merge, structural rules, agent-spans-workflow) supports many more patterns — compose them as needed. diff --git a/docs/index.md b/docs/index.md index acbb7ad96..f4a617d00 100644 --- a/docs/index.md +++ b/docs/index.md @@ -33,7 +33,7 @@ These docs are organized into four sections based on what you're trying to do: | **Explanation** | Understanding-oriented.

Per-agent customize.toml remains the deep-behavior source of truth. - Installer emits four TOML files: _bmad/config.toml team install answers + agent roster _bmad/config.user.toml user install answers _bmad/custom/config.toml team overrides stub _bmad/custom/config.user.toml personal overrides stub Prompts declare scope: user to route answers to config.user.toml. - resolve_config.py merges four layers: base-team -> base-user -> custom-team -> custom-user. - Three consumer skills (party-mode, advanced-elicitation, retrospective) switched from agent-manifest.csv to the resolver. - installer.js mergeModuleHelpCatalogs now takes the in-memory agent list from ManifestGenerator -- no CSV roundtrip. - Deleted: 6 bmad-skill-manifest.yaml files, agent-manifest.csv emission, collectAgents/getAgentsFromDirRecursive, paths.agentManifest(). * fix(installer): strip core-key pollution from [modules.*]; soften config headers - writeCentralConfig now always strips core-module keys from every [modules.] bucket, even when the module's schema is not available in src/ (external / marketplace modules like cis, bmb). Core values belong in [core] only; workflows read them directly. - When the module's own schema IS available (built-in modules), also drop any key it does not declare as a prompt — same spread-pollution filter as before, now layered on top. - Section-aware headers on both _bmad/config.toml and _bmad/config.user.toml: [core] / [modules.*] values are editable (installer reads them as defaults on next install); [agents.*] is regenerated from module.yaml and will be wiped — overrides for agents go in _bmad/custom/config*.toml instead. * docs: cover central config.toml + Diataxis prose pass across three files Document the new four-file central configuration surface (_bmad/config.toml, config.user.toml, and custom/ overrides) alongside the existing per-skill customize.toml. Make editing rules, scope partitioning, and when-to-use-which guidance explicit. - customize-bmad.md: new "Central Configuration" section with editing rules, three worked examples (rebrand, fictional agent, module settings override), and a "when to use which surface" table. Converted five h4 headers to bold paragraph intros per style guide. - expand-bmad-for-your-org.md: two-layer mental model extended to three; new Recipe 5 with three variants (rebrand, custom crew, pinned team settings); reinforcement table extended. - named-agents.md: noted the dual customization surface — per-skill shapes behavior, central config shapes roster identity. Diataxis prose pass applied across all three files: banned vocabulary check, em-dash cap, hypophora / metanoia / amplificatio / stakes-inflation cleanup, rhythm and burstiness fixes. Structural conformance verified; markdownlint and prettier clean. * test+docs: add central config unit tests; fix stale recipe count - test: two new suites (35 + 36) covering writeCentralConfig and ensureCustomConfigStubs. Verifies scope partitioning (user_name lands only in config.user.toml), core-key pollution stripping from [modules.*], unknown-schema fallthrough (external modules survive without schema), agent roster baked into config.toml [agents.*] only, stub-preservation on re-install. 44 new assertions. - docs: fixed four stale "four recipes" references to say "five" after Recipe 5 (Customize the Agent Roster) was added. Touches frontmatter, opening paragraph, Combining Recipes paragraph, and the named-agents cross-link blurb. * fix: address PR review feedback on central config - resolve_config.py argparse: three-layer → four-layer description - SKILL/workflow/explanation docs: document all four layers including _bmad/config.user.toml (was missing from merge-stack descriptions) - customize-bmad.md + installer headers: drop the false "direct edits to config.toml persist" claim; installer reads from per-module config.yaml, not central TOML, so direct edits get clobbered. Route users to _bmad/custom/config.toml for durable overrides - writeCentralConfig: warn loudly when a module.yaml can't be parsed (previously silent — user-scoped keys could mis-file into team config) - writeCentralConfig: preserve [agents.*] blocks for modules that didn't contribute fresh agents this run (e.g. quickUpdate skipping modules whose source is unavailable) so the roster doesn't silently shrink - add extractAgentBlocks helper + Test Suite 37 covering preservation Addresses comments from augmentcode and coderabbitai on PR #2285. --- docs/explanation/named-agents.md | 20 +- docs/how-to/customize-bmad.md | 115 ++++- docs/how-to/expand-bmad-for-your-org.md | 114 ++++- .../bmad-skill-manifest.yaml | 11 - .../bmad-skill-manifest.yaml | 11 - .../bmad-agent-pm/bmad-skill-manifest.yaml | 11 - .../bmad-skill-manifest.yaml | 11 - .../bmad-skill-manifest.yaml | 11 - .../bmad-agent-dev/bmad-skill-manifest.yaml | 11 - .../bmad-retrospective/workflow.md | 4 +- src/bmm-skills/module.yaml | 43 ++ .../bmad-advanced-elicitation/SKILL.md | 8 +- .../resources/distillate-format-reference.md | 2 +- src/core-skills/bmad-party-mode/SKILL.md | 23 +- src/core-skills/module.yaml | 2 + src/scripts/resolve_config.py | 176 +++++++ test/test-installation-components.js | 250 ++++++++- tools/installer/core/install-paths.js | 7 +- tools/installer/core/installer.js | 58 +-- tools/installer/core/manifest-generator.js | 484 +++++++++++------- 20 files changed, 1007 insertions(+), 365 deletions(-) delete mode 100644 src/bmm-skills/1-analysis/bmad-agent-analyst/bmad-skill-manifest.yaml delete mode 100644 src/bmm-skills/1-analysis/bmad-agent-tech-writer/bmad-skill-manifest.yaml delete mode 100644 src/bmm-skills/2-plan-workflows/bmad-agent-pm/bmad-skill-manifest.yaml delete mode 100644 src/bmm-skills/2-plan-workflows/bmad-agent-ux-designer/bmad-skill-manifest.yaml delete mode 100644 src/bmm-skills/3-solutioning/bmad-agent-architect/bmad-skill-manifest.yaml delete mode 100644 src/bmm-skills/4-implementation/bmad-agent-dev/bmad-skill-manifest.yaml create mode 100644 src/scripts/resolve_config.py diff --git a/docs/explanation/named-agents.md b/docs/explanation/named-agents.md index 779fd8624..5f8a96774 100644 --- a/docs/explanation/named-agents.md +++ b/docs/explanation/named-agents.md @@ -53,11 +53,11 @@ When you invoke a named agent, eight steps run in order: 7. **Execute append steps** — any post-greet setup the team configured 8. **Dispatch or present the menu** — if your opening message maps to a menu item, go directly; otherwise render the menu and wait for input -Step 8 is where the magic lands.

This is where the **agent roster** lives — the lightweight descriptors that roster consumers like `bmad-party-mode`, `bmad-retrospective`, and `bmad-advanced-elicitation` read to know who's available and how to embody them.

Covers per-skill agent and workflow surfaces; central config is out of scope for v1. - SKILL.md: six-step flow (intent, discover, route, compose, team-vs-user, show-confirm-write-verify) with baked-in agent-vs-workflow routing heuristic and a template-swap subroutine - scripts/list_customizable_skills.py: stdlib-only scanner that enumerates customizable skills across standard IDE install paths, reports surface type and override status, PEP 723, 10 unit tests - Reuses _bmad/scripts/resolve_customization.py for post-write verification - Registered in core-skills/module-help.csv with menu code BC * refactor(bmad-customize): apply QA pass (top 3 recommendations) Applies the three highest-payoff themes from the quality analysis: - Labeling + completion contracts: rename ## Purpose to ## Overview, add domain framing (what customization means in BMad, typical user arrival shapes), add an explicit Completion block with testable conditions for "skill run is done" - Hostile-environment robustness: add On-Activation preflight that classifies no-BMad / BMad-without-resolver / full-install states, instruct Step 2 to surface scanner errors[] and scanned_roots on empty results, add resolver-missing fallback to Step 6.4, add a re-enter-Step-4 recovery loop when verify shows the override didn't take effect - Returning-user and iteration experience: add "Audit / iterate" intent class in Step 1, lead discovery with already-overridden skills for that intent, read existing overrides in Step 3 before composing, frame Step 4 as additive-on-top rather than fresh authoring, give Cross-cutting intent an explicit Step 3 branch that walks agent-vs-workflow with the user Resolves 12 of 18 observations from the quality report. Lint clean (scan-path-standards and scan-scripts both 0 findings). Unit tests still 10/10. * refactor(bmad-customize): derive skills root from install location Previously the scanner hardcoded a list of IDE skill directories (.claude/skills, .cursor/skills, .cline/skills, .continue/skills) and scanned them relative to the project root. That was wrong: skills can be installed either project-local or user-global, the IDE determines the convention, and the set of valid locations is open-ended. The scanner now derives its primary skills root from __file__ — the running skill's own install directory is the authoritative location for finding siblings. --skills-root overrides the default; --extra-root (repeatable) adds additional locations for the rare mixed-install case. Changes: - list_customizable_skills.py: remove SKILL_ROOTS constant, add default_skills_root() derived from __file__, rename scan_project to scan_skills(skills_roots, project_root), add --skills-root and --extra-root flags, de-dupe skills when the same name appears in multiple roots (first wins) - SKILL.md: update Step 2 to describe the scanner's derive-from-install behavior and when to use --extra-root; drop the hardcoded IDE path list from Notes - tests: refactor setUp to place skills under a generic skills root (not .claude/skills), add 3 new tests for multiple-roots merge, duplicate-name precedence, and missing-root error reporting * docs(customization): point users at bmad-customize as the guided path Surface the new bmad-customize skill across the three customization docs so users know they don't need to hand-author TOML to benefit from the surface: - customize-bmad.md: prominent tip at the top introducing the skill as the guided authoring helper; updated the "Need to see what's customizable?" troubleshooting tip to recommend the skill first - expand-bmad-for-your-org.md: tip under prereqs noting every recipe can be applied via the skill, with the recipes remaining the reference for what to override - named-agents.md: short paragraph in the customization section and a link entry under the references list Hand-authoring still works the same way; the skill is additive. Central-config overrides are flagged as the current exception. * docs(bmad-customize): steer users at bmad-builder instead of 'forking' * fix(bmad-customize): reword description to pass file-ref validator * refactor(bmad-customize): tighten description and expand module-help entry - SKILL.md description: drop the catch-all 'or asks how to change the behavior of a specific BMad skill' trigger clause that would fire in casual discussion; keep the four explicit phrase triggers. - module-help.csv: rewrite the description so bmad-help has real routing material — names the concrete capabilities (persistent facts, template swaps, activation hooks, menus), the scope routing, and the value prop (no TOML hand-authoring). Matches the 'Use when...' pattern other Core entries use. * fix(module-help): quote bmad-customize description field that contains commas * fix(bmad-customize): address PR #2289 review findings - SKILL.md preflight: load root config from _bmad/config.toml and config.user.toml (not .yaml) — the installer emits TOML; the YAML references would have made the skill silently miss real user config - SKILL.md resolver fallback (Step 6.4): read all three merge layers when present (base / team / user) and describe the merge in base → team → user order; the prior wording could describe the wrong effective merge when the user wrote .user.toml on top of an existing team .toml - SKILL.md: replace bare 'docs/how-to/customize-bmad.md' references (3 locations) with the public docs URL so users installing the skill aren't pointed at a path they don't have locally - list_customizable_skills.py: catch UnicodeDecodeError in read_frontmatter_description so a non-UTF-8 SKILL.md can't abort the whole scan - list_customizable_skills.py: clarify exit-code contract in the module docstring — errors[] is non-fatal by design, exit 2 is reserved for invocation errors - customize-bmad.md: tighten the tip to scope bmad-customize to the per-skill surface; central-config is out of scope v1 - expand-bmad-for-your-org.md: same scoping — Recipes 1-4 can be applied by the skill; Recipe 5 (central config) stays hand-authored * fix(bmad-customize): markdownlint MD034 and validate-file-refs - Wrap the three docs.bmad-method.org references as [text](url) markdown links instead of bare URLs (MD034) - Drop the {project-root}/ prefix on line 41's config.toml references. validate-file-refs strips the template prefix and tries to resolve 'config.toml' as 'src/config.toml'; sibling skills (party-mode, retrospective, advanced-elicitation) all reference '_bmad/config.toml' bare and pass CI — match that pattern. The '(root level under {project-root}, installer-owned)' parenthetical preserves the disambiguation. * refactor(bmad-customize): cut token-wasting prose from SKILL.md Down from 175 lines to 110. Removed: - 'What customization means in BMad' architecture backgrounder — the LLM reads the live customize.toml in Step 3; doesn't need the lore - 'Desired Outcomes' section — retrospective narration of what the 6 steps already instruct - 'Role' section — fluff; the flow itself defines the role - 'Notes' section — sparse-override rule already in Step 4, IDE-path note is commentary, docs link duplicates the out-of-scope section - 'The scanner derives its skills directory from...' and 'returns JSON with...' — commentary the LLM doesn't need; it runs the script and sees the output - 'that file IS the schema' and similar editorial asides throughout - Explanatory clauses like 'silently drifts on every release' and 'trust the user's domain knowledge' Kept everything that's load-bearing: preflight conditionals, intent classification, routing heuristic, merge semantics, template-swap subroutine, team-vs-user defaults, verify fallback and recovery loop, completion conditions, out-of-scope list. --- docs/explanation/named-agents.md | 3 + docs/how-to/customize-bmad.md | 7 +- docs/how-to/expand-bmad-for-your-org.md | 4 + src/core-skills/bmad-customize/SKILL.md | 111 ++++++++ .../scripts/list_customizable_skills.py | 231 ++++++++++++++++ .../tests/test_list_customizable_skills.py | 249 ++++++++++++++++++ src/core-skills/module-help.csv | 1 + 7 files changed, 605 insertions(+), 1 deletion(-) create mode 100644 src/core-skills/bmad-customize/SKILL.md create mode 100644 src/core-skills/bmad-customize/scripts/list_customizable_skills.py create mode 100644 src/core-skills/bmad-customize/scripts/tests/test_list_customizable_skills.py diff --git a/docs/explanation/named-agents.md b/docs/explanation/named-agents.md index 5f8a96774..e5a92511c 100644 --- a/docs/explanation/named-agents.md +++ b/docs/explanation/named-agents.md @@ -75,6 +75,8 @@ The customization model is what lets this scale beyond a single developer.

Nó làm rõ ý định của bạn, dựng spec, triển khai thay đổi, rồi khi xong sẽ nối thêm một review trail vào file spec và mở file đó trong editor. Bạn nhìn vào spec và thấy thay đổi này chạm tới 20 file, trải trên nhiều module. + +Bạn có thể tự liếc diff. Nhưng khoảng 20 file là lúc cách đó bắt đầu kém hiệu quả: bạn mất mạch, bỏ sót liên hệ giữa hai thay đổi ở xa nhau, hoặc duyệt một thứ mà bạn chưa thực sự hiểu. Thay vì vậy, bạn nói "checkpoint" và LLM sẽ dẫn bạn đi qua thay đổi. + +Điểm bàn giao đó, từ triển khai tự động quay lại phán đoán của con người, chính là tình huống sử dụng chính. Quick-dev có thể chạy khá lâu với rất ít giám sát. Checkpoint Preview là nơi bạn cầm lại tay lái. + +## Vì sao nó tồn tại + +Code review có hai kiểu thất bại. Kiểu đầu là người review lướt qua diff, không thấy gì nổi bật và bấm duyệt. Kiểu thứ hai là họ đọc rất kỹ từng file nhưng lại mất mạch tổng thể, thấy từng cái cây mà bỏ lỡ cả khu rừng. Cả hai đều dẫn tới cùng một kết quả: lần review đã không bắt được điều thực sự quan trọng. + +Vấn đề cốt lõi nằm ở thứ tự tiếp nhận. Một raw diff trình bày thay đổi theo thứ tự file, gần như không bao giờ là thứ tự giúp xây dựng hiểu biết. Bạn thấy một helper function trước khi biết vì sao nó tồn tại. Bạn thấy một schema change trước khi hiểu tính năng nào đang dùng nó. Người review phải tự dựng lại ý đồ của tác giả từ những manh mối rời rạc, và chính ở bước dựng lại đó sự tập trung thường bị đứt. + +Checkpoint Preview giải quyết việc này bằng cách để LLM làm phần dựng lại. Nó đọc diff, spec nếu có, và codebase xung quanh, rồi trình bày thay đổi theo một thứ tự phục vụ việc hiểu, chứ không theo `git diff`. + +## Nó hoạt động như thế nào + +Workflow này có năm bước. Mỗi bước xây trên bước trước, dần dần chuyển từ "đây là gì?" sang "chúng ta có nên phát hành nó không?" + +### 1. Định hướng + +Workflow xác định thay đổi đó là gì, từ PR, commit, branch, file spec, hoặc trạng thái git hiện tại, rồi tạo một câu tóm tắt ý định và vài số liệu bề mặt: số file thay đổi, số module bị chạm tới, số dòng logic, số lần băng qua ranh giới, và các public interface mới. + +Đây là khoảnh khắc "đúng là thứ tôi đang nghĩ tới chứ?". Trước khi đọc mã, người review xác nhận mình đang nhìn đúng thay đổi và cân chỉnh kỳ vọng về phạm vi. + +### 2. Dẫn giải thay đổi (Walkthrough) + +Thay đổi được tổ chức theo **mối quan tâm** như validation đầu vào hay API contract, thay vì theo file. Mỗi mối quan tâm có một giải thích ngắn về *vì sao* cách tiếp cận này được chọn, kèm theo các điểm dừng `path:line` có thể bấm để người review đi theo xuyên suốt code. + +Đây là bước dùng phán đoán về thiết kế. Người review đánh giá xem hướng tiếp cận có đúng với hệ thống hay không, chứ chưa phải xem code có chính xác tuyệt đối hay không. Các mối quan tâm được sắp từ trên xuống: ý định cấp cao trước, phần triển khai hỗ trợ sau. Người review sẽ không gặp tham chiếu tới thứ mà họ chưa thấy. + +### 3. Soi chi tiết + +Sau khi người review đã hiểu thiết kế, workflow sẽ đưa ra 2 đến 5 điểm mà nếu sai thì hậu quả lan rộng nhất. Chúng được gắn nhãn theo loại rủi ro như `[auth]`, `[schema]`, `[billing]`, `[public API]`, `[security]` và các nhãn khác, đồng thời được sắp theo mức độ thiệt hại nếu sai. + +Đây không phải là một cuộc săn bug. Tính đúng đắn được CI và test tự động lo phần lớn. Bước soi chi tiết nhằm kích hoạt ý thức về rủi ro: "đây là những chỗ mà nếu sai thì cái giá phải trả cao nhất". Nếu muốn đào sâu một khu vực cụ thể, bạn có thể nói "đào sâu vào [khu vực]" để chạy một lần review lại tập trung vào tính đúng đắn. + +Nếu spec trước đó đã đi qua các vòng adversarial review, các phát hiện liên quan cũng được đưa ra ở đây. Không phải các bug đã được sửa, mà là những quyết định mà vòng review đó từng gắn cờ để người review hiện tại biết. + +### 4. Kiểm thử + +Workflow gợi ý 2 đến 5 cách quan sát thủ công để thấy thay đổi thực sự hoạt động. Không phải lệnh test tự động, mà là các quan sát tay giúp tăng niềm tin theo cách test suite không cho bạn được. Một tương tác UI để thử, một lệnh CLI để chạy, một request API để gửi, kèm kết quả kỳ vọng cho từng mục. + +Nếu thay đổi không có hành vi nào nhìn thấy được từ phía người dùng, workflow sẽ nói thẳng như vậy. Không bịa thêm việc cho có. + +### 5. Kết thúc + +Người review đưa ra quyết định: duyệt, làm lại, hay tiếp tục thảo luận. Nếu đang duyệt PR, workflow có thể hỗ trợ với `gh pr review --approve`. Nếu cần làm lại, nó sẽ giúp chẩn đoán vấn đề nằm ở cách tiếp cận, spec, hay phần triển khai, đồng thời hỗ trợ soạn phản hồi có thể hành động được và gắn với vị trí code cụ thể. + +## Đây là một cuộc hội thoại, không phải bản báo cáo + +Workflow trình bày từng bước như một điểm khởi đầu, không phải lời kết luận cuối cùng. Giữa các bước, hoặc ngay giữa một bước, bạn có thể trao đổi với LLM, hỏi thêm, phản biện cách nó đóng khung vấn đề, hoặc kéo thêm skill khác để lấy một góc nhìn khác: + +- **"run advanced elicitation on the error handling"** - ép LLM xem xét lại và tinh chỉnh phân tích cho một khu vực cụ thể +- **"party mode on whether this schema migration is safe"** - kéo nhiều góc nhìn agent vào một cuộc tranh luận tập trung +- **"run code review"** - tạo ra các phát hiện có cấu trúc với phân tích đối kháng và edge case + +Workflow checkpoint không khóa bạn vào một đường đi tuyến tính. Nó cho bạn cấu trúc khi bạn cần, và tránh cản đường khi bạn muốn tự khám phá. Năm bước ở đây để bảo đảm bạn nhìn được toàn cảnh, còn việc đi sâu đến mức nào ở mỗi bước và gọi thêm công cụ nào hoàn toàn là do bạn quyết định. + +## Lộ trình review (Review Trail) + +Bước dẫn giải thay đổi hoạt động tốt nhất khi nó có một **thứ tự review gợi ý (Suggested Review Order)**, tức một danh sách các điểm dừng do tác giả spec viết ra để dẫn người review đi qua thay đổi. Nếu spec có phần này, workflow sẽ dùng trực tiếp. + +Nếu không có review trail do tác giả tạo, workflow sẽ tự sinh một trail từ diff và bối cảnh codebase. Trail do máy sinh ra vẫn kém hơn trail do tác giả viết, nhưng vẫn tốt hơn rất nhiều so với việc đọc thay đổi theo thứ tự file. + +## Khi nào nên dùng + +Tình huống chính là bước bàn giao sau `bmad-quick-dev`: phần triển khai đã xong, file spec đang mở trong editor với review trail đã được nối thêm, và bạn cần quyết định có nên phát hành hay không. Lúc đó chỉ cần nói "checkpoint" là bắt đầu. + +Nó cũng hoạt động độc lập: + +- **Review một PR** - đặc biệt hữu ích khi PR có nhiều hơn vài file hoặc có thay đổi cắt ngang nhiều khu vực +- **Làm quen với một thay đổi (onboard to a change)** - khi bạn cần hiểu chuyện gì đã xảy ra trên một branch mà bạn không phải người viết +- **Review sprint (sprint review)** - workflow có thể nhặt các story được đánh dấu `review` trong file trạng thái sprint của bạn + +Bạn có thể gọi nó bằng cách nói "checkpoint" hoặc "dẫn tôi đi qua thay đổi này". Nó chạy được trong mọi terminal, nhưng sẽ phát huy tốt nhất trong IDE như VS Code, Cursor hoặc công cụ tương tự, vì workflow tạo tham chiếu `path:line` ở mọi bước. Trong terminal tích hợp của IDE, các tham chiếu đó có thể bấm được, nên bạn có thể nhảy qua lại giữa các file khi đi theo review trail. + +## Nó không phải là gì + +Checkpoint Preview không thay thế review tự động. Nó không chạy linter, type checker, hay test suite. Nó không chấm mức độ nghiêm trọng hay đưa ra kết luận pass/fail. Nó là một bản hướng dẫn đọc để giúp con người áp dụng phán đoán của mình vào đúng những chỗ đáng chú ý nhất. diff --git a/docs/vi-vn/explanation/named-agents.md b/docs/vi-vn/explanation/named-agents.md new file mode 100644 index 000000000..514555a1c --- /dev/null +++ b/docs/vi-vn/explanation/named-agents.md @@ -0,0 +1,94 @@ +--- +title: "Agent có tên riêng (Named Agents)" +description: Vì sao các agent của BMad có tên, persona và bề mặt tùy chỉnh riêng, và điều đó mở khóa điều gì so với cách tiếp cận dựa trên menu hoặc prompt trống +sidebar: + order: 1 +--- + +Bạn nói: "Hey Mary, brainstorm với tôi nhé", và Mary được kích hoạt.

Bạn có thể viết lại nguyên tắc của Mary hoặc thêm menu item cho cô ấy, nhưng bạn không thể đổi tên cô ấy. Đó là chủ ý thiết kế. Nhận diện thương hiệu của agent phải sống sót qua lớp tùy chỉnh để câu "hey Mary" luôn kích hoạt đúng analyst, bất kể team đã nắn hành vi của cô ấy theo cách nào. + +## Luồng kích hoạt + +Khi bạn gọi một named agent, tám bước sau sẽ chạy theo thứ tự: + +1. **Resolve cấu hình agent**: merge `customize.toml` gốc với override của team và cá nhân qua một Python resolver dùng `tomllib` +2. **Chạy các bước tiền xử lý (prepend steps)**: mọi hành vi pre-flight mà team đã cấu hình +3. **Nhập persona**: danh tính hardcode cộng với vai trò, phong cách giao tiếp và nguyên tắc đã tùy chỉnh +4. **Nạp persistent facts**: quy tắc tổ chức, ghi chú compliance, hoặc cả file được nạp qua tiền tố `file:` +5. **Nạp config**: tên người dùng, ngôn ngữ giao tiếp, ngôn ngữ đầu ra, đường dẫn artifact +6. **Chào người dùng**: lời chào cá nhân hóa, đúng ngôn ngữ cấu hình và có emoji prefix của agent để bạn nhìn là biết ai đang nói +7. **Chạy các bước hậu xử lý (append steps)**: mọi bước thiết lập sau lời chào mà team đã cấu hình +8. **Dispatch hoặc hiện menu**: nếu tin nhắn mở đầu của bạn khớp một menu item thì agent đi thẳng vào đó, nếu không thì hiện menu và chờ input + +Bước 8 là nơi ý định gặp năng lực. Câu "Hey Mary, brainstorm với tôi nhé" bỏ qua phần render menu vì `bmad-brainstorming` là một mapping quá rõ với mục `BP` trong menu của Mary. Nếu bạn nói mơ hồ, cô ấy chỉ hỏi lại một lần, ngắn gọn, chứ không biến xác nhận thành nghi thức. Nếu chẳng có mục nào phù hợp, cô ấy tiếp tục cuộc hội thoại như bình thường. + +## Vì sao không chỉ dùng menu + +Menu buộc người dùng phải chủ động học công cụ. Bạn phải nhớ brainstorming nằm dưới mã `BP` của analyst chứ không phải PM, và phải nhớ persona nào sở hữu nhóm khả năng nào. Toàn bộ gánh nặng nhận thức đó do công cụ đẩy sang cho người dùng. + +Named agents đảo ngược điều đó. Bạn chỉ cần nói điều mình muốn, với đúng người mình nghĩ tới, bằng ngôn từ tự nhiên. Agent biết họ là ai và họ làm gì. Khi ý định của bạn đủ rõ, họ chỉ việc bắt đầu. + +Menu vẫn còn đó như một phương án dự phòng, hiện ra khi bạn đang khám phá, và biến mất khi bạn không cần nó. + +## Vì sao không chỉ dùng prompt trống + +Prompt trống giả định rằng bạn biết "câu thần chú". "Giúp tôi brainstorm" có thể hiệu quả, nhưng "hãy ideate giúp tôi một ý tưởng SaaS" có thể cho kết quả khác, và đầu ra phụ thuộc khá nhiều vào cách bạn diễn đạt. Khi đó người dùng gần như phải kiêm luôn vai trò kỹ sư prompt (prompt engineer). + +Named agents thêm cấu trúc mà không đóng mất sự tự do. Persona giữ ổn định, năng lực thì dễ khám phá, và `bmad-help` luôn chỉ cách bạn một lệnh. Bạn không phải đoán agent làm được gì, nhưng cũng không cần học thuộc một cuốn manual để dùng nó. + +## Tùy chỉnh là công dân hạng nhất + +Chính mô hình customization làm cho cách tiếp cận này mở rộng được ra ngoài phạm vi của một lập trình viên đơn lẻ. + +Mỗi agent đi kèm một `customize.toml` với mặc định hợp lý. Team có thể commit override vào `_bmad/custom/bmad-agent-{role}.toml`. Mỗi cá nhân có thể chồng thêm sở thích riêng trong `.user.toml` bị gitignore. Resolver sẽ merge cả ba lớp tại thời điểm kích hoạt theo các quy tắc có tính dự đoán. + +Đa số người dùng không cần tự tay viết các file đó. Skill `bmad-customize` sẽ dẫn họ qua việc chọn đúng mục tiêu, quyết định override ở mức agent hay workflow, viết file và xác minh merge. Nhờ vậy bề mặt tùy chỉnh vẫn tiếp cận được với bất cứ ai hiểu ý định của mình, chứ không chỉ người rành TOML. + +Ví dụ cụ thể: một team commit một file yêu cầu Amelia luôn dùng Context7 MCP tool khi tra tài liệu thư viện, và fallback sang Linear nếu story không xuất hiện trong danh sách epic cục bộ. Từ đó mọi dev workflow mà Amelia dispatch như `dev-story`, `quick-dev`, `create-story`, `code-review` đều tự động thừa hưởng hành vi này mà không cần sửa source hay lặp lại cấu hình từng workflow. + +Ngoài ra còn có một bề mặt tùy chỉnh thứ hai cho các mối quan tâm *xuyên suốt*: `_bmad/config.toml`, `_bmad/config.user.toml`, `_bmad/custom/config.toml` và `_bmad/custom/config.user.toml`. Đây là nơi **agent roster** sống, tức các descriptor gọn nhẹ mà những skill như `bmad-party-mode`, `bmad-retrospective` và `bmad-advanced-elicitation` dùng để biết ai có mặt và phải nhập vai họ thế nào. Bạn có thể rebrand một agent cho cả tổ chức bằng team override, hoặc thêm những giọng hư cấu như Kirk, Spock hay một persona chuyên gia domain qua `.user.toml`, tất cả mà không cần đụng vào thư mục skill.

File này định nghĩa toàn bộ bề mặt tùy chỉnh của skill, nên hãy đọc nó để biết có thể chỉnh gì. Bạn **không bao giờ** sửa trực tiếp file này. Thay vào đó, bạn tạo các file override dạng thưa, chỉ chứa những trường bạn muốn đổi. + +### Mô hình override ba lớp + +```text +Ưu tiên 1 (thắng): _bmad/custom/{skill-name}.user.toml (cá nhân, bị gitignore) +Ưu tiên 2: _bmad/custom/{skill-name}.toml (team/tổ chức, được commit) +Ưu tiên 3 (gốc): customize.toml của chính skill (mặc định) +``` + +Thư mục `_bmad/custom/` ban đầu là rỗng. File chỉ xuất hiện khi ai đó thực sự bắt đầu tùy chỉnh. + +### Quy tắc merge theo hình dạng, không theo tên trường + +Resolver áp dụng bốn quy tắc cấu trúc. Tên trường không được hardcode riêng; hành vi hoàn toàn được quyết định bởi dạng dữ liệu: + +| Dạng | Quy tắc | +|---|---| +| Scalar (string, int, bool, float) | Giá trị override sẽ thắng | +| Table | Deep merge, tức merge đệ quy theo các quy tắc này | +| Mảng các table mà mọi phần tử đều dùng cùng **một** trường định danh (`code` ở tất cả phần tử, hoặc `id` ở tất cả phần tử) | Merge theo khóa đó, phần tử trùng khóa sẽ **thay tại chỗ**, phần tử mới sẽ **append** | +| Mọi mảng khác (mảng scalar, table không có định danh, hoặc trộn `code` và `id`) | **Append**: phần tử gốc trước, rồi team, rồi user | + +**Không có cơ chế xóa.** Override không thể xóa phần tử mặc định. Nếu bạn cần vô hiệu hóa một menu item mặc định, hãy override nó theo `code` bằng mô tả hoặc prompt no-op. Nếu cần tái cấu trúc mảng sâu hơn, bạn phải fork skill. + +**Quy ước `code` / `id`.** BMad dùng `code` (định danh ngắn như `"BP"` hoặc `"R1"`) và `id` (định danh ổn định dài hơn) làm merge key cho mảng các table. Nếu bạn tự tạo một mảng table muốn có khả năng replace-by-key thay vì append-only, hãy chọn **một** quy ước duy nhất và dùng nhất quán cho toàn bộ mảng. Nếu trộn `code` ở phần tử này và `id` ở phần tử khác, resolver sẽ rơi về chế độ append vì nó không đoán merge theo khóa nào. + +### Một số trường của agent là chỉ đọc + +`agent.name` và `agent.title` vẫn nằm trong `customize.toml` như metadata nguồn gốc, nhưng `SKILL.md` của agent không đọc hai trường này ở runtime, vì danh tính của agent được hardcode. Bạn đặt `name = "Bob"` trong file override cũng sẽ không có tác dụng. Nếu bạn thật sự cần một agent với tên khác, hãy copy thư mục skill, đổi tên và phát hành nó như một custom skill. ## Các bước thực hiện -### 1. Xác định vị trí các tệp tùy chỉnh +### 1. Tìm bề mặt tùy chỉnh của skill -Sau khi cài đặt, bạn sẽ tìm thấy một tệp `.customize.yaml` cho mỗi agent tại: +Hãy mở file `customize.toml` trong thư mục skill đã được cài. Ví dụ với PM agent: ```text -_bmad/_config/agents/ -├── core-bmad-master.customize.yaml -├── bmm-dev.customize.yaml -├── bmm-pm.customize.yaml -└── ... (một tệp cho mỗi agent đã cài) +.claude/skills/bmad-agent-pm/customize.toml ``` -### 2. Chỉnh sửa tệp tùy chỉnh +(Đường dẫn cụ thể thay đổi theo IDE: Cursor dùng `.cursor/skills/`, Cline dùng `.cline/skills/`, v.v.) -Mở tệp `.customize.yaml` của agent mà bạn muốn sửa. Mỗi phần đều là tùy chọn, chỉ tùy chỉnh những gì bạn cần. +Đây là schema chính thức. Mọi trường bạn nhìn thấy trong file này đều có thể tùy chỉnh, ngoại trừ các trường danh tính chỉ đọc đã nêu ở trên. -| Phần | Cách hoạt động | Mục đích | -| --- | --- | --- | -| `agent.metadata` | Thay thế | Ghi đè tên hiển thị của agent | -| `persona` | Thay thế | Đặt vai trò, danh tính, phong cách và các nguyên tắc | -| `memories` | Nối thêm | Thêm bối cảnh cố định mà agent luôn ghi nhớ | -| `menu` | Nối thêm | Thêm mục menu tùy chỉnh cho workflow hoặc prompt | -| `critical_actions` | Nối thêm | Định nghĩa hướng dẫn khởi động cho agent | -| `prompts` | Nối thêm | Tạo các prompt tái sử dụng cho các hành động trong menu | +### 2. Tạo file override của bạn -Những phần được đánh dấu **Thay thế** sẽ ghi đè hoàn toàn cấu hình mặc định của agent. Những phần được đánh dấu **Nối thêm** sẽ bổ sung vào cấu hình hiện có. +Tạo thư mục `_bmad/custom/` ở root dự án nếu nó chưa tồn tại. Sau đó tạo file đặt theo tên skill: -**Tên agent** - -Thay đổi cách agent tự giới thiệu: - -```yaml -agent: - metadata: - name: 'Spongebob' # Mặc định: "Amelia" +```text +_bmad/custom/ + bmad-agent-pm.toml # override của team (commit vào git) + bmad-agent-pm.user.toml # sở thích cá nhân (gitignore) ``` -**Persona** +:::caution[KHÔNG copy nguyên file `customize.toml`] +File override phải **thưa**. Chỉ đưa vào những trường bạn thực sự muốn đổi, không hơn. -Thay thế tính cách, vai trò và phong cách giao tiếp của agent: +Mọi trường bạn bỏ qua sẽ tự động được kế thừa từ lớp bên dưới. Nếu bạn copy toàn bộ `customize.toml` vào file override, những bản cập nhật sau này sẽ không chảy vào các giá trị mặc định mới nữa và bạn sẽ âm thầm bị lệch qua mỗi release. +::: -```yaml -persona: - role: 'Senior Full-Stack Engineer' - identity: 'Sống trong quả dứa (dưới đáy biển)' - communication_style: 'Spongebob gây phiền' - principles: - - 'Không lồng quá sâu, dev Spongebob ghét nesting quá 2 cấp' - - 'Ưu tiên composition hơn inheritance' +**Ví dụ: đổi icon và thêm một principle** + +```toml +# _bmad/custom/bmad-agent-pm.toml +# Chỉ ghi những trường cần đổi. Phần còn lại vẫn kế thừa. + +[agent] +icon = "🏥" +principles = [ + "Không phát hành bất cứ thứ gì không thể vượt qua kiểm toán của FDA.", +] ``` -Phần `persona` sẽ thay thế toàn bộ persona mặc định, vì vậy nếu đặt phần này bạn nên cung cấp đầy đủ cả bốn trường. +Ví dụ này append thêm principle mới vào danh sách mặc định và thay icon. Mọi trường khác vẫn giữ nguyên như bản gốc. -**Memories** +### 3. Tùy chỉnh đúng phần bạn cần -Thêm bối cảnh cố định mà agent sẽ luôn nhớ: +Mọi ví dụ bên dưới đều giả định schema agent phẳng của BMad. Các trường nằm trực tiếp trong `[agent]`, không có các sub-table như `metadata` hay `persona`. -```yaml -memories: - - 'Làm việc tại Krusty Krab' - - 'Người nổi tiếng yêu thích: David Hasselhoff' - - 'Đã học ở Epic 1 rằng giả vờ test đã pass là không ổn' +**Scalar (`icon`, `role`, `identity`, `communication_style`).** Scalar override sẽ thắng, nên bạn chỉ cần đặt những trường đang muốn đổi: + +```toml +# _bmad/custom/bmad-agent-pm.toml + +[agent] +icon = "🏥" +role = "Dẫn dắt product discovery cho domain healthcare có ràng buộc pháp lý." +communication_style = "Chính xác, nhạy với compliance, đặt các câu hỏi mang hình dạng kiểm soát ngay từ sớm." ``` -**Mục menu** +**Persistent facts, principles, activation hooks (các mảng append).** Bốn mảng dưới đây đều là append-only. Phần tử của team được thêm sau mặc định, phần tử user được thêm cuối cùng. -Thêm các mục tùy chỉnh vào menu hiển thị của agent. Mỗi mục cần có `trigger`, đích đến (`workflow` hoặc `action`) và `description`: +```toml +[agent] +# Các fact tĩnh mà agent luôn giữ trong đầu trong cả phiên: quy tắc tổ chức, +# hằng số domain, sở thích của người dùng.

Mỗi item có trường `code`, nên resolver merge theo mã này: item có `code` trùng sẽ thay tại chỗ, item mới sẽ được append. -```yaml -critical_actions: - - 'Kiểm tra pipeline CI bằng XYZ Skill và cảnh báo người dùng ngay khi khởi động nếu có việc khẩn cấp cần xử lý' +Với TOML array-of-tables, mỗi item dùng cú pháp `[[agent.menu]]`: + +```toml +# Thay item CE hiện có bằng một custom skill +[[agent.menu]] +code = "CE" +description = "Tạo Epic theo framework delivery của tổ chức" +skill = "custom-create-epics" + +# Thêm item mới (RC chưa tồn tại trong mặc định) +[[agent.menu]] +code = "RC" +description = "Chạy compliance pre-check" +prompt = """ +Đọc {project-root}/_bmad/custom/compliance-checklist.md +và quét toàn bộ tài liệu trong {planning_artifacts} theo checklist đó. +Báo cáo mọi khoảng trống và trích dẫn điều khoản quy định tương ứng. +""" ``` -**Prompt tùy chỉnh** +Mỗi menu item chỉ có đúng một trong hai trường `skill` hoặc `prompt`. Những item không xuất hiện trong file override của bạn sẽ giữ nguyên mặc định. -Tạo các prompt tái sử dụng để mục menu có thể tham chiếu bằng `action="#id"`: +**Tham chiếu file.** Khi một trường văn bản cần trỏ tới file (trong `persistent_facts`, `activation_steps_prepend`, `activation_steps_append`, hoặc `prompt` của menu item), hãy dùng đường dẫn đầy đủ dựa trên `{project-root}`. Dù file nằm cạnh override trong `_bmad/custom/`, bạn vẫn nên viết rõ là `{project-root}/_bmad/custom/info.md`. Agent sẽ resolve `{project-root}` ở runtime. -```yaml -prompts: - - id: deploy-prompt - content: | - Triển khai nhánh hiện tại lên production: - 1. Chạy toàn bộ test - 2. Build dự án - 3.

Áp dụng thay đổi +## Cách quá trình resolve diễn ra -Sau khi chỉnh sửa, cài đặt lại để áp dụng thay đổi: +Khi agent được kích hoạt, `SKILL.md` của nó sẽ gọi một shared Python script để merge ba lớp nói trên và trả về block kết quả ở dạng JSON. Script này dùng `tomllib` của Python stdlib, nên `python3` thuần là đủ: ```bash -npx bmad-method install +python3 {project-root}/_bmad/scripts/resolve_customization.py \ + --skill {skill-root} \ + --key agent ``` -Trình cài đặt sẽ nhận diện bản cài đặt hiện có và đưa ra các lựa chọn sau: +**Yêu cầu**: Python 3.11+ vì các phiên bản cũ hơn không có `tomllib`. Không cần `pip install`, không cần `uv`, không cần virtualenv. Bạn có thể kiểm tra bằng `python3 --version`. Trên một số nền tảng, `python3` mặc định vẫn là 3.10 hoặc thấp hơn, nên có thể bạn sẽ phải cài 3.11+ riêng. -| Lựa chọn | Tác dụng | -| --- | --- | -| **Quick Update** | Cập nhật tất cả module lên phiên bản mới nhất và áp dụng các tùy chỉnh | -| **Modify BMad Installation** | Chạy lại quy trình cài đặt đầy đủ để thêm hoặc gỡ bỏ module | +`--skill` trỏ vào thư mục skill đã cài, nơi có file `customize.toml`. Tên skill được lấy từ basename của thư mục, sau đó script sẽ tự tìm `_bmad/custom/{skill-name}.toml` và `{skill-name}.user.toml`. -Nếu chỉ thay đổi phần tùy chỉnh, **Quick Update** là lựa chọn nhanh nhất. +Một số lệnh hữu ích: -## Khắc phục sự cố +```bash +# Resolve toàn bộ block agent +python3 {project-root}/_bmad/scripts/resolve_customization.py \ + --skill /duong-dan/tuyet-doi/toi/bmad-agent-pm \ + --key agent -**Thay đổi không xuất hiện?** +# Resolve một trường cụ thể +python3 {project-root}/_bmad/scripts/resolve_customization.py \ + --skill /duong-dan/tuyet-doi/toi/bmad-agent-pm \ + --key agent.icon -- Chạy `npx bmad-method install` và chọn **Quick Update** để áp dụng thay đổi -- Kiểm tra YAML có hợp lệ không (thụt lề rất quan trọng) -- Xác minh bạn đã sửa đúng tệp `.customize.yaml` của agent cần thiết +# Dump toàn bộ +python3 {project-root}/_bmad/scripts/resolve_customization.py \ + --skill /duong-dan/tuyet-doi/toi/bmad-agent-pm +``` -**Agent không tải lên được?** - -- Kiểm tra lỗi cú pháp YAML bằng một công cụ kiểm tra YAML trực tuyến -- Đảm bảo bạn không để trống trường nào sau khi bỏ comment -- Thử khôi phục mẫu gốc rồi build lại - -**Cần đặt lại một agent?** - -- Xóa nội dung hoặc xóa tệp `.customize.yaml` của agent đó -- Chạy `npx bmad-method install` và chọn **Quick Update** để khôi phục mặc định +Đầu ra luôn là JSON. Nếu script này không khả dụng trên một nền tảng nào đó, `SKILL.md` sẽ hướng dẫn agent đọc trực tiếp ba file TOML và áp dụng cùng các quy tắc merge. ## Tùy chỉnh workflow -Tài liệu về cách tùy chỉnh các workflow và skill sẵn có trong BMad Method sẽ được bổ sung trong thời gian tới. +Workflow, tức các skill điều phối tiến trình nhiều bước như `bmad-product-brief`, dùng cùng cơ chế override như agent. Khác biệt là bề mặt tùy chỉnh của chúng nằm dưới `[workflow]` thay vì `[agent]`: -## Tùy chỉnh module +```toml +# _bmad/custom/bmad-product-brief.toml -Hướng dẫn xây dựng expansion module và tùy chỉnh các module hiện có sẽ được bổ sung trong thời gian tới. +[workflow] +# Giống agent: prepend/append chạy trước và sau activation mặc định của +# workflow. Override sẽ append vào mặc định. +activation_steps_prepend = [ + "Nạp {project-root}/docs/product/north-star-principles.md làm context.", +] + +activation_steps_append = [] + +# Cũng dùng semantics literal-hoặc-file: như phía agent. Những fact này được +# nạp làm context nền tảng trong suốt lần chạy workflow. +persistent_facts = [ + "Mọi brief đều phải có một mục explicit về regulatory risk.", + "file:{project-root}/docs/compliance/product-brief-checklist.md", +] + +# Scalar: chạy đúng một lần khi workflow hoàn tất output chính. Override thắng. +on_complete = "Tóm tắt brief trong ba gạch đầu dòng rồi hỏi người dùng có muốn gửi email qua skill gws-gmail-send không." +``` + +Cùng một quy ước trường có thể đi xuyên qua ranh giới agent/workflow: `activation_steps_prepend`, `activation_steps_append`, `persistent_facts` với tham chiếu `file:`, và các table kiểu menu `[[...]]` dùng `code` hoặc `id` làm khóa merge. Resolver áp dụng đúng bốn quy tắc cấu trúc đã nêu bất kể top-level key là gì. Tham chiếu từ `SKILL.md` cũng theo namespace tương ứng: `{workflow.activation_steps_prepend}`, `{workflow.persistent_facts}`, `{workflow.on_complete}`. Mọi trường bổ sung mà một workflow tự expose, ví dụ output path, toggle, review setting hay stage flag, cũng sẽ đi theo cùng cơ chế merge dựa trên shape. Muốn biết chính xác workflow đó cho chỉnh gì, hãy đọc `customize.toml` của nó. + +### Thứ tự activation + +Workflow có thể tùy chỉnh sẽ chạy activation theo thứ tự cố định để bạn biết hook của mình được kích hoạt khi nào: + +1. Resolve block `[workflow]` bằng merge base -> team -> user +2. Chạy `activation_steps_prepend` theo đúng thứ tự +3. Nạp `persistent_facts` làm ngữ cảnh nền tảng cho cả lần chạy +4. Nạp config (`_bmad/bmm/config.yaml`) và resolve các biến chuẩn như tên dự án, ngôn ngữ, đường dẫn, ngày tháng +5. Chào người dùng +6. Chạy `activation_steps_append` theo đúng thứ tự + +Sau bước 6, phần thân chính của workflow mới bắt đầu. Hãy dùng `activation_steps_prepend` khi bạn cần load context trước cả lúc cá nhân hóa lời chào; dùng `activation_steps_append` khi phần thiết lập khá nặng và bạn muốn người dùng thấy lời chào trước. + +### Phạm vi của đợt triển khai đầu tiên này + +Khả năng tùy chỉnh đang được mở rộng dần. Những trường đã mô tả ở trên, gồm `activation_steps_prepend`, `activation_steps_append`, `persistent_facts`, `on_complete`, là **bề mặt nền tảng** mà mọi workflow có thể tùy chỉnh đều sẽ hỗ trợ, và chúng sẽ ổn định qua các phiên bản. Ngày hôm nay, chỉ với những trường này bạn đã có thể kiểm soát những điểm lớn: thêm bước trước/sau, ghim context nền tảng, kích hoạt hành động tiếp theo sau khi workflow hoàn tất. + +Theo thời gian, từng workflow sẽ expose thêm **các điểm tùy chỉnh chuyên biệt hơn** gắn với chính công việc của workflow đó, ví dụ toggle ở từng bước, stage flag, đường dẫn template đầu ra hoặc review gate. Khi những trường đó xuất hiện, chúng sẽ được chồng thêm lên bề mặt nền tảng chứ không thay thế nó, nên những tùy chỉnh bạn viết hôm nay vẫn tiếp tục dùng được. + +Nếu bạn đang cần một "núm tinh chỉnh" chi tiết hơn nhưng workflow chưa expose, hãy tạm dùng `activation_steps_*` và `persistent_facts` để điều hướng hành vi, hoặc mở issue mô tả chính xác điểm tùy chỉnh bạn muốn. Chính những nhu cầu đó sẽ quyết định trường nào được bổ sung tiếp theo. + +## Cấu hình trung tâm + +`customize.toml` theo từng skill bao phủ **hành vi sâu** như hook, menu, `persistent_facts`, override persona cho một agent hay workflow đơn lẻ. Một bề mặt khác sẽ bao phủ **trạng thái cắt ngang** như các câu trả lời lúc cài đặt và roster agent mà những skill bên ngoài như `bmad-party-mode`, `bmad-retrospective` và `bmad-advanced-elicitation` sử dụng. Bề mặt đó nằm trong bốn file TOML ở root dự án: + +```text +_bmad/config.toml (do installer quản lý) team scope: câu trả lời lúc cài đặt + agent roster +_bmad/config.user.toml (do installer quản lý) user scope: user_name, language, skill level +_bmad/custom/config.toml (do con người viết) team overrides (commit vào git) +_bmad/custom/config.user.toml (do con người viết) personal overrides (gitignore) +``` + +### Merge bốn lớp + +```text +Ưu tiên 1 (thắng): _bmad/custom/config.user.toml +Ưu tiên 2: _bmad/custom/config.toml +Ưu tiên 3: _bmad/config.user.toml +Ưu tiên 4 (gốc): _bmad/config.toml +``` + +Các quy tắc cấu trúc hoàn toàn giống phần per-skill customize: scalar override, table deep-merge, mảng dùng `code` hoặc `id` sẽ merge theo khóa, các mảng khác thì append. + +### Cái gì nằm ở đâu + +Installer sẽ phân chia câu trả lời theo `scope:` khai báo trên từng prompt trong `module.yaml`: + +- Các section `[core]` và `[modules.]`: chứa câu trả lời khi cài. `scope = team` sẽ được ghi vào `_bmad/config.toml`; `scope = user` sẽ nằm trong `_bmad/config.user.toml` +- Section `[agents.]`: "bản chất" của agent gồm code, name, title, icon, description, team, được chưng cất từ khối `agents:` trong `module.yaml` của từng module. Phần này luôn ở scope team + +### Quy tắc chỉnh sửa + +- `_bmad/config.toml` và `_bmad/config.user.toml` sẽ **được tạo lại sau mỗi lần cài đặt** từ những câu trả lời mà installer thu thập. Hãy coi chúng là output chỉ đọc; mọi chỉnh sửa trực tiếp sẽ bị ghi đè ở lần cài tiếp theo. Nếu muốn thay đổi bền vững một giá trị cài đặt, hãy chạy lại installer hoặc chồng giá trị đó bằng `_bmad/custom/config.toml` +- `_bmad/custom/config.toml` và `_bmad/custom/config.user.toml` sẽ **không bao giờ** bị installer động vào. Đây mới là bề mặt đúng để thêm custom agent, override descriptor của agent, ép các thiết lập dùng chung cho team và ghim mọi giá trị bạn muốn giữ nguyên bất kể câu trả lời lúc cài là gì + +### Ví dụ: đổi thương hiệu cho một agent + +```toml +# _bmad/custom/config.toml (commit vào git, áp dụng cho mọi developer) + +[agents.bmad-agent-pm] +description = "PM trong domain healthcare, nhạy với compliance, luôn đặt câu hỏi theo hướng FDA ngay từ đầu." +icon = "🏥" +``` + +Resolver sẽ merge đè lên `[agents.bmad-agent-pm]` do installer sinh ra. `bmad-party-mode` và mọi roster consumer khác sẽ tự động thấy description mới này. + +### Ví dụ: thêm một agent hư cấu + +```toml +# _bmad/custom/config.user.toml (cá nhân, gitignore) + +[agents.kirk] +team = "startrek" +name = "Captain James T. Kirk" +title = "Starship Captain" +icon = "🖖" +description = "Một chỉ huy táo bạo, thích bẻ luật. Nói chuyện có các quãng ngắt đầy kịch tính. Suy nghĩ thành tiếng về gánh nặng của quyền chỉ huy." +``` + +Không cần tạo thư mục skill. Chỉ riêng "essence" này cũng đủ để party-mode spawn Kirk như một giọng nói trong cuộc bàn tròn. Bạn có thể lọc theo trường `team` để chỉ mời nhóm Enterprise. + +### Ví dụ: override thiết lập cài đặt của module + +```toml +# _bmad/custom/config.toml + +[modules.bmm] +planning_artifacts = "/shared/org-planning-artifacts" +``` + +Giá trị override này sẽ thắng mọi câu trả lời mà từng developer đã nhập khi cài trên máy của họ.

Đây là mẫu áp dụng (pattern) có sức ảnh hưởng lớn nhất. + +**Ví dụ:** Amelia, tức dev agent, luôn dùng Context7 cho tài liệu thư viện và fallback sang Linear nếu không tìm thấy story trong danh sách epic. + +```toml +# _bmad/custom/bmad-agent-dev.toml + +[agent] + +# Áp dụng ở mọi lần kích hoạt. Theo Amelia đi vào dev-story, quick-dev, +# create-story, code-review, qa-generate và mọi skill cô ấy dispatch. +persistent_facts = [ + "Với mọi truy vấn tài liệu thư viện như React, TypeScript, Zod, Prisma..., hãy gọi Context7 MCP tool (`mcp__context7__resolve_library_id` rồi `mcp__context7__get_library_docs`) trước khi dựa vào kiến thức trong dữ liệu huấn luyện (training data). Tài liệu cập nhật phải thắng API đã ghi nhớ.", + "Khi không tìm thấy tham chiếu story trong {planning_artifacts}/epics-and-stories.md, hãy tìm trong Linear bằng `mcp__linear__search_issues` theo ID hoặc tiêu đề story trước khi yêu cầu người dùng làm rõ. Nếu Linear trả về kết quả khớp, coi đó là nguồn story có thẩm quyền.", +] +``` + +**Vì sao cách này hiệu quả:** Chỉ với hai câu, bạn đã thay đổi mọi dev workflow trong tổ chức mà không lặp config từng nơi và không sửa source. Mọi engineer mới kéo repo về đều tự động thừa hưởng convention đó. + +**File của team và file cá nhân** + +- `bmad-agent-dev.toml`: commit vào git, áp dụng cho cả team +- `bmad-agent-dev.user.toml`: bị gitignore, dùng cho sở thích cá nhân chồng thêm lên trên + +## Recipe 2: ép convention của tổ chức bên trong một workflow cụ thể + +**Trường hợp dùng (use case):** Định hình *nội dung đầu ra* của một workflow để nó đáp ứng yêu cầu compliance, audit hoặc hệ thống downstream. + +**Ví dụ:** mọi product brief đều phải có các trường compliance, và agent biết convention xuất bản của tổ chức. + +```toml +# _bmad/custom/bmad-product-brief.toml + +[workflow] + +persistent_facts = [ + "Mọi brief phải có trường 'Owner', 'Target Release' và 'Security Review Status'.", + "Các brief không mang tính thương mại như công cụ nội bộ hoặc dự án nghiên cứu vẫn phải có phần user value, nhưng có thể bỏ phân biệt cạnh tranh thị trường.", + "file:{project-root}/docs/enterprise/brief-publishing-conventions.md", +] +``` + +**Điều gì xảy ra:** Những fact này được nạp trong quá trình activation của workflow. Khi agent soạn brief, nó đã biết các trường bắt buộc và tài liệu convention nội bộ. Mặc định có sẵn, ví dụ `file:{project-root}/**/project-context.md`, vẫn tiếp tục được nạp vì phần này chỉ append thêm. + +## Recipe 3: xuất bản kết quả hoàn tất sang hệ thống ngoài + +**Trường hợp dùng (use case):** Sau khi workflow tạo ra output chính, tự động đẩy nó sang hệ thống nguồn sự thật của doanh nghiệp như Confluence, Notion, SharePoint, rồi mở tiếp công việc follow-up trong Jira, Linear hoặc Asana. + +**Ví dụ:** brief được tự động publish lên Confluence và tùy chọn mở Jira epic. + +```toml +# _bmad/custom/bmad-product-brief.toml + +[workflow] + +# Hook ở giai đoạn cuối.

Thông báo cho người dùng: "Brief đã được publish lên Confluence: ". +4. Hỏi: "Bạn có muốn tôi mở Jira epic cho brief này ngay bây giờ không?" +5. Nếu có, gọi `mcp__atlassian__jira_create_issue` với: + - type: "Epic" + - project: "PROD" + - summary: tiêu đề của brief + - description: tóm tắt ngắn cùng liên kết ngược về trang Confluence. + Sau đó báo lại epic key và URL. +6. Nếu không, thoát sạch. + +Nếu một trong các MCP tool bị lỗi, hãy báo lỗi, in ra đường dẫn brief +và yêu cầu người dùng publish thủ công. +""" +``` + +**Vì sao dùng `on_complete` thay vì `activation_steps_append`:** `on_complete` chỉ chạy đúng một lần ở cuối, sau khi output chính của workflow đã được ghi ra. Đó là thời điểm đúng để publish artifact. `activation_steps_append` thì chạy mỗi lần kích hoạt, trước khi workflow làm công việc chính của nó. + +**Điểm đánh đổi (trade-offs)** + +- Publish lên Confluence là hành động không phá hủy, nên có thể luôn chạy khi hoàn tất +- Tạo Jira epic là hành động hiển thị cho cả team và kích hoạt các tín hiệu sprint planning, nên nên chặn bởi một bước xác nhận từ người dùng +- Nếu MCP tool lỗi, workflow phải có phương án dự phòng (fallback) rõ ràng thay vì âm thầm làm mất output + +## Recipe 4: thay output template bằng template của riêng bạn + +**Trường hợp dùng (use case):** Cấu trúc đầu ra mặc định không khớp định dạng mà tổ chức mong muốn, hoặc trong cùng một repo có nhiều tổ chức cần template riêng. + +**Ví dụ:** trỏ workflow product-brief sang template do doanh nghiệp sở hữu. + +```toml +# _bmad/custom/bmad-product-brief.toml + +[workflow] +brief_template = "{project-root}/docs/enterprise/brief-template.md" +``` + +**Cách nó hoạt động:** `customize.toml` của workflow đi kèm `brief_template = "resources/brief-template.md"` dưới dạng đường dẫn tương đối tới skill root. Override của bạn lại trỏ tới một file trong `{project-root}`, nên agent sẽ đọc template của bạn trong bước tương ứng thay vì dùng template mặc định đi kèm. + +**Mẹo viết template** + +- Giữ template trong `{project-root}/docs/` hoặc `{project-root}/_bmad/custom/templates/` để nó được version cùng với file override +- Nên dùng cùng convention cấu trúc với template mặc định, ví dụ heading và frontmatter, để agent có điểm tựa ổn định +- Với repo đa tổ chức, hãy dùng `.user.toml` để từng nhóm nhỏ có thể trỏ sang template riêng mà không cần sửa file dùng chung của team + +## Recipe 5: tùy chỉnh danh sách agent (agent roster) + +**Trường hợp dùng (use case):** Thay đổi *ai đang ngồi trong phòng* cho những skill dựa trên roster như `bmad-party-mode`, `bmad-retrospective` và `bmad-advanced-elicitation`, mà không cần sửa source hay fork. Dưới đây là ba biến thể thường gặp. + +### 5a. Rebrand một agent của BMad trên toàn tổ chức + +Mỗi agent thật đều có một descriptor được installer tổng hợp từ `module.yaml`. Bạn có thể override descriptor này để đổi giọng điệu và framing ở mọi roster consumer: + +```toml +# _bmad/custom/config.toml (commit vào git, áp dụng cho mọi developer) + +[agents.bmad-agent-analyst] +description = "Mary, nhà phân tích nghiệp vụ giàu nhận thức pháp lý, pha trộn Porter với Minto nhưng sống cùng các audit trail của FDA. Cô ấy nói như một điều tra viên pháp chứng đang trình bày hồ sơ vụ án." +``` + +Party mode sẽ spawn Mary với description mới này. Bản thân activation của analyst vẫn chạy bình thường vì hành vi của Mary sống trong `customize.toml` theo từng skill. Override này chỉ thay đổi cách **các skill bên ngoài nhìn thấy và giới thiệu cô ấy**, chứ không thay đổi cách cô ấy hoạt động bên trong. + +### 5b. Thêm một agent hư cấu hoặc agent tự định nghĩa + +Chỉ cần một descriptor đầy đủ là đủ cho các tính năng dựa trên roster, không cần thư mục skill. Điều này rất phù hợp nếu bạn muốn tăng màu sắc tính cách cho party mode hay các buổi brainstorming: + +```toml +# _bmad/custom/config.user.toml (cá nhân, gitignore) + +[agents.spock] +team = "startrek" +name = "Commander Spock" +title = "Science Officer" +icon = "🖖" +description = "Logic là trên hết, cảm xúc bị nén lại. Mở đầu nhận xét bằng 'Fascinating.' Không bao giờ làm tròn lên. Là đối trọng với mọi lập luận chỉ dựa vào linh cảm." + +[agents.mccoy] +team = "startrek" +name = "Dr. Leonard McCoy" +title = "Chief Medical Officer" +icon = "⚕️" +description = "Sự ấm áp của một bác sĩ miền quê, đi kèm với tính nóng nảy. 'Dammit Jim, I'm a doctor not a ___.' Là đối trọng đạo đức với Spock." +``` + +Khi bạn yêu cầu party-mode "mời nhóm Star Trek" hoặc "mời phi hành đoàn Enterprise", nó sẽ lọc theo `team = "startrek"` và spawn Spock cùng McCoy dựa trên các descriptor đó. Các agent thật của BMad như Mary hay Amelia vẫn có thể ngồi cùng bàn nếu bạn muốn. + +### 5c. Ghim thiết lập cài đặt dùng chung cho cả team + +Installer sẽ hỏi từng developer các giá trị như đường dẫn `planning_artifacts`. Khi tổ chức muốn có một câu trả lời thống nhất, hãy ghim nó trong cấu hình trung tâm. Khi đó, mọi câu trả lời cục bộ của từng người sẽ bị override lúc resolve: + +```toml +# _bmad/custom/config.toml + +[modules.bmm] +planning_artifacts = "{project-root}/shared/planning" +implementation_artifacts = "{project-root}/shared/implementation" + +[core] +document_output_language = "English" +``` + +Những thiết lập cá nhân như `user_name`, `communication_language` hoặc `user_skill_level` nên vẫn nằm trong `_bmad/config.user.toml` riêng của từng developer. File chung của team không nên đụng vào các giá trị đó. + +**Vì sao việc này nằm ở cấu hình trung tâm thay vì per-agent customize.toml:** File per-agent chỉ định hình cách *một* agent hành xử khi nó được kích hoạt. Cấu hình trung tâm lại định hình những gì các roster consumer *nhìn thấy khi quan sát cánh đồng chung*: agent nào tồn tại, tên gì, thuộc team nào và các thiết lập cài đặt dùng chung mà toàn repo đã thống nhất. Hai bề mặt khác nhau, hai công việc khác nhau. + +## Củng cố các quy tắc toàn cục trong file hướng dẫn phiên của IDE + +Tùy chỉnh của BMad chỉ được nạp khi một skill được kích hoạt. Trong khi đó, nhiều công cụ IDE còn nạp một file hướng dẫn toàn cục ở **đầu mọi phiên**, trước cả khi skill nào chạy, như `CLAUDE.md`, `AGENTS.md`, `.cursor/rules/` hay `.github/copilot-instructions.md`. Với những quy tắc phải đúng cả khi bạn đang chat thường, hãy lặp lại phiên bản rút gọn của chúng trong file đó nữa. + +**Khi nào nên "đánh đôi"** + +- Quy tắc đó đủ quan trọng đến mức một cuộc chat thường, chưa kích hoạt BMad skill nào, cũng vẫn phải tuân theo +- Bạn muốn áp dụng kiểu "gia cố hai lớp" (belt-and-suspenders) vì hành vi mặc định từ dữ liệu huấn luyện (training data) có thể kéo model đi chệch +- Quy tắc đủ ngắn để lặp lại mà không làm file hướng dẫn đầu phiên trở nên phình to + +**Ví dụ:** một dòng trong `CLAUDE.md` của repo để củng cố quy tắc ở Recipe 1. + +```markdown + +``` + +Chỉ một câu, nhưng được nạp ở mọi phiên. Nó kết hợp với cấu hình `bmad-agent-dev.toml` để quy tắc có hiệu lực cả trong workflow của Amelia lẫn trong các cuộc trò chuyện ad-hoc với assistant. Mỗi lớp giữ đúng phạm vi của mình: + +| Lớp | Phạm vi | Dùng cho | +|---|---|---| +| File hướng dẫn phiên của IDE như `CLAUDE.md` hoặc `AGENTS.md` | Mọi phiên, trước khi bất kỳ skill nào chạy | Quy tắc ngắn, phổ quát, phải sống cả ngoài BMad | +| Tùy chỉnh agent của BMad | Mọi workflow mà agent đó dispatch | Hành vi riêng theo persona/agent | +| Tùy chỉnh workflow của BMad | Một lần chạy workflow | Dạng đầu ra, hook publish, template và logic riêng của workflow | +| Cấu hình trung tâm của BMad | Agent roster và thiết lập cài đặt dùng chung | Ai đang ngồi trong phòng và đường dẫn nào cả team dùng chung | + +Hãy giữ file hướng dẫn của IDE **ngắn gọn**. Một tá dòng được chọn kỹ sẽ hiệu quả hơn một danh sách dài lê thê. Model phải đọc file đó ở mọi lượt, và càng nhiều nhiễu thì càng ít tín hiệu. + +## Kết hợp các recipe + +Cả năm recipe này có thể kết hợp song song. Một cấu hình doanh nghiệp thực tế cho `bmad-product-brief` hoàn toàn có thể đặt `persistent_facts` theo Recipe 2, `on_complete` theo Recipe 3 và `brief_template` theo Recipe 4 trong cùng một file. Quy tắc ở cấp agent theo Recipe 1 sẽ nằm trong file của agent tương ứng, còn cấu hình trung tâm theo Recipe 5 thì ghim roster và thiết lập chung. Tất cả cùng hoạt động đồng thời. + +```toml +# _bmad/custom/bmad-product-brief.toml (cấp workflow) + +[workflow] +persistent_facts = ["..."] +brief_template = "{project-root}/docs/enterprise/brief-template.md" +on_complete = """ ... """ +``` + +```toml +# _bmad/custom/bmad-agent-analyst.toml (cấp agent, Mary sẽ dispatch product-brief) + +[agent] +persistent_facts = ["Luôn thêm mục 'Regulatory Review' khi domain liên quan tới healthcare, finance hoặc dữ liệu trẻ em."] +``` + +Kết quả là Mary nạp quy tắc review pháp lý ngay ở lúc kích hoạt persona. Khi người dùng chọn menu item product-brief, workflow sẽ nạp các convention riêng của nó chồng lên, ghi ra template của doanh nghiệp và publish lên Confluence khi hoàn tất. Mỗi lớp đều đóng góp một phần và không lớp nào đòi hỏi sửa source của BMad. + +## Khắc phục sự cố + +**Override không có tác dụng?** Hãy kiểm tra file có nằm trong `_bmad/custom/` và dùng đúng tên thư mục skill không, ví dụ `bmad-agent-dev.toml`, chứ không phải `bmad-dev.toml`. Nếu cần, xem lại [Cách tùy chỉnh BMad](./customize-bmad.md). + +**Không chắc tên MCP tool?** Hãy dùng đúng tên mà MCP server hiện tại expose trong phiên của bạn. Nếu chưa chắc, hãy yêu cầu Claude Code liệt kê các MCP tool đang có. Những tên hardcode trong `persistent_facts` hay `on_complete` sẽ không chạy nếu MCP server chưa được kết nối. + +**Mẫu áp dụng (pattern) trong ví dụ không khớp setup của tôi?** Các recipe trên chỉ là ví dụ mẫu. Cơ chế bên dưới, gồm merge ba lớp, quy tắc cấu trúc và mô hình agent-span-workflow, vẫn hỗ trợ nhiều pattern khác.
