# Contributor Covenant Code of Conduct
|
||||
|
||||
## Our Pledge
|
||||
|
||||
We as members, contributors, and leaders pledge to make participation in our
|
||||
community a harassment-free experience for everyone, regardless of age, body
|
||||
size, visible or invisible disability, ethnicity, sex characteristics, gender
|
||||
identity and expression, level of experience, education, socio-economic status,
|
||||
nationality, personal appearance, race, religion, or sexual identity
|
||||
and orientation.
|
||||
|
||||
We pledge to act and interact in ways that contribute to an open, welcoming,
|
||||
diverse, inclusive, and healthy community.
|
||||
|
||||
## Our Standards
|
||||
|
||||
Examples of behavior that contributes to a positive environment for our
|
||||
community include:
|
||||
|
||||
* Demonstrating empathy and kindness toward other people
|
||||
* Being respectful of differing opinions, viewpoints, and experiences
|
||||
* Giving and gracefully accepting constructive feedback
|
||||
* Accepting responsibility and apologizing to those affected by our mistakes,
|
||||
and learning from the experience
|
||||
* Focusing on what is best not just for us as individuals, but for the
|
||||
overall community
|
||||
|
||||
Examples of unacceptable behavior include:
|
||||
|
||||
* The use of sexualized language or imagery, and sexual attention or
|
||||
advances of any kind
|
||||
* Trolling, insulting or derogatory comments, and personal or political attacks
|
||||
* Public or private harassment
|
||||
* Publishing others' private information, such as a physical or email
|
||||
address, without their explicit permission
|
||||
* Other conduct which could reasonably be considered inappropriate in a
|
||||
professional setting
|
||||
|
||||
## Enforcement Responsibilities
|
||||
|
||||
Community leaders are responsible for clarifying and enforcing our standards of
|
||||
acceptable behavior and will take appropriate and fair corrective action in
|
||||
response to any behavior that they deem inappropriate, threatening, offensive,
|
||||
or harmful.
|
||||
|
||||
Community leaders have the right and responsibility to remove, edit, or reject
|
||||
comments, commits, code, wiki edits, issues, and other contributions that are
|
||||
not aligned to this Code of Conduct, and will communicate reasons for moderation
|
||||
decisions when appropriate.
|
||||
|
||||
## Scope
|
||||
|
||||
This Code of Conduct applies within all community spaces, and also applies when
|
||||
an individual is officially representing the community in public spaces.
|
||||
Examples of representing our community include using an official e-mail address,
|
||||
posting via an official social media account, or acting as an appointed
|
||||
representative at an online or offline event.
|
||||
|
||||
## Enforcement
|
||||
|
||||
Instances of abusive, harassing, or otherwise unacceptable behavior may be
|
||||
reported to the community leaders responsible for enforcement at
|
||||
the official BMAD Discord server (<https://discord.com/invite/gk8jAdXWmj>) - DM a moderator or flag a post.
|
||||
All complaints will be reviewed and investigated promptly and fairly.
|
||||
|
||||
All community leaders are obligated to respect the privacy and security of the
|
||||
reporter of any incident.
|
||||
|
||||
## Enforcement Guidelines
|
||||
|
||||
Community leaders will follow these Community Impact Guidelines in determining
|
||||
the consequences for any action they deem in violation of this Code of Conduct:
|
||||
|
||||
### 1. Correction
|
||||
|
||||
**Community Impact**: Use of inappropriate language or other behavior deemed
|
||||
unprofessional or unwelcome in the community.
|
||||
|
||||
**Consequence**: A private, written warning from community leaders, providing
|
||||
clarity around the nature of the violation and an explanation of why the
|
||||
behavior was inappropriate. A public apology may be requested.
|
||||
|
||||
### 2. Warning
|
||||
|
||||
**Community Impact**: A violation through a single incident or series
|
||||
of actions.
|
||||
|
||||
**Consequence**: A warning with consequences for continued behavior. No
|
||||
interaction with the people involved, including unsolicited interaction with
|
||||
those enforcing the Code of Conduct, for a specified period of time. This
|
||||
includes avoiding interactions in community spaces as well as external channels
|
||||
like social media. Violating these terms may lead to a temporary or
|
||||
permanent ban.
|
||||
|
||||
### 3. Temporary Ban
|
||||
|
||||
**Community Impact**: A serious violation of community standards, including
|
||||
sustained inappropriate behavior.
|
||||
|
||||
**Consequence**: A temporary ban from any sort of interaction or public
|
||||
communication with the community for a specified period of time. No public or
|
||||
private interaction with the people involved, including unsolicited interaction
|
||||
with those enforcing the Code of Conduct, is allowed during this period.
|
||||
Violating these terms may lead to a permanent ban.
|
||||
|
||||
### 4. Permanent Ban
|
||||
|
||||
**Community Impact**: Demonstrating a pattern of violation of community
|
||||
standards, including sustained inappropriate behavior, harassment of an
|
||||
individual, or aggression toward or disparagement of classes of individuals.
|
||||
|
||||
**Consequence**: A permanent ban from any sort of public interaction within
|
||||
the community.

### Idea: Add search functionality to customer dashboard
|
||||
|
||||
**P**roblem:
|
||||
Customers can't find their past orders quickly. They have to scroll through pages of orders to find what they're looking for, leading to 15+ support tickets per week.
|
||||
|
||||
**A**udience:
|
||||
All 5,000+ active customers are affected. Support team spends ~10 hours/week helping customers find orders.
|
||||
|
||||
**S**olution:
|
||||
Add a search bar that filters by order number, date range, and product name. Success = 50% reduction in order-finding support tickets within 2 weeks of launch.
|
||||
|
||||
**S**ize:
|
||||
|
||||
- [x] **M** - 3-5 days

### Idea: Make the app better
|

|

|

_Why this is poor: Too vague, no specific problem identified, no measurable success criteria, unclear scope_

</details>
|

|
||||
|
||||
## Tips for Success
|
||||
|
||||
1. **Be specific** - Vague problems lead to vague solutions
|
||||
2. **Quantify when possible** - Numbers help us prioritize (e.g., "20 customers asked for this" vs "customers want this")
|
||||
3. **One idea per submission** - If you have multiple ideas, submit multiple templates
|
||||
4. **Success metrics matter** - How will we know this worked?
|
||||
5. **Honest sizing** - Better to overestimate than underestimate
|
||||

# Multi-Task Step Analysis & Optimization Complete ✅
|
||||
|
||||
**Date:** 2026-01-22
|
||||
**Status:** All workflows analyzed, multi-task steps resolved
|
||||
|
||||
---
|
||||
|
||||
## Summary
|
||||
|
||||
**Total Workflows Analyzed:** 8
|
||||
**Workflows Requiring Changes:** 2
|
||||
**Steps Split or Streamlined:** 5
|
||||
**Substep Patterns Implemented:** 2
|
||||
|
||||
---
|
||||
|
||||
## Changes Made
|
||||
|
||||
### 1. ✅ Trigger-Mapping/Document-Generation
|
||||
|
||||
**Issue:** step-03-generate-personas.md generated 2-3 persona documents in one step
|
||||
|
||||
**Solution:** Split into focused steps
|
||||
|
||||
**Files Created:**
|
||||
- `step-03a-generate-primary-persona.md` (96 lines)
|
||||
- `step-03b-generate-secondary-persona.md` (104 lines)
|
||||
- `step-03c-generate-tertiary-persona.md` (96 lines)
|
||||
|
||||
**Files Removed:**
|
||||
- `step-03-generate-personas.md` (138 lines)
|
||||
|
||||
**Impact:**
|
||||
- Each persona type now gets dedicated focus
|
||||
- PRIMARY persona (most important) has its own step
|
||||
- Optional TERTIARY persona has conditional routing
|
||||
- Clearer sequential workflow
|
||||
|
||||
---
|
||||
|
||||
### 2. ✅ Design-Deliveries
|
||||
|
||||
**Issue:** step-6.2 and step-6.3 had 5-9 numbered substeps within single files
|
||||
|
||||
**Solution:** Streamlined to route to substeps (similar to step-03.5-generate-contract pattern)
|
||||
|
||||
#### Step 6.2: Create Design Delivery
|
||||
|
||||
**Old:** 310 lines with 9 embedded substeps
|
||||
**New:** 156 lines routing to 7 substeps (-154 lines, -50%)
|
||||
|
||||
**Substeps to Create:**
|
||||
1. Initialize Delivery File
|
||||
2. Define User Value
|
||||
3. List Design Artifacts
|
||||
4. Define Technical Requirements
|
||||
5. Define Acceptance Criteria
|
||||
6. Add Testing Guidance
|
||||
7. Estimate Complexity
|
||||
|
||||
#### Step 6.3: Create Test Scenario
|
||||
|
||||
**Old:** Similar structure with embedded substeps
|
||||
**New:** 155 lines routing to 7 substeps
|
||||
|
||||
**Substeps to Create:**
|
||||
1. Initialize Test Scenario File
|
||||
2. Define Happy Path Tests
|
||||
3. Define Error State Tests
|
||||
4. Define Edge Case Tests
|
||||
5. Define Design System Validation
|
||||
6. Define Accessibility Tests
|
||||
7. Define Sign-Off Criteria

## Workflows Analyzed - No Changes Needed
|
||||
|
||||
### ✅ Project-Brief Workflows
|
||||
|
||||
**Alignment-Signoff (5 steps):**
|
||||
- All steps have ONE focused task
|
||||
- Substeps are sequential parts of cohesive tasks
|
||||
- step-03.5-generate-contract already uses substep pattern correctly
|
||||
|
||||
**Handover (3 steps):**
|
||||
- All well-structured
|
||||
- Each has single clear task
|
||||
|
||||
---
|
||||
|
||||
### ✅ Trigger-Mapping Workflows
|
||||
|
||||
**Handover (5 steps):**
|
||||
- All focused on handover preparation
|
||||
- Each step has ONE task
|
||||
|
||||
**Mermaid-Diagram (8 steps):**
|
||||
- Excellent structure
|
||||
- Each handles one specific diagram component
|
||||
|
||||
---
|
||||
|
||||
### ✅ PRD-Platform/Handover (5 steps)
|
||||
|
||||
All steps have ONE cohesive task:
|
||||
1. Compile deliverables
|
||||
2. Extract epic structure
|
||||
3. Prepare PRD materials
|
||||
4. Create handover package
|
||||
5. Provide activation
|
||||
|
||||
---
|
||||
|
||||
### ✅ UX-Design/Handover
|
||||
|
||||
**Two Separate Workflow Paths:**
|
||||
|
||||
**Path A:** Platform Requirements Handover (3 steps)
|
||||
**Path B:** Design Delivery Creation (5 steps)
|
||||
|
||||
Both paths well-structured.
|
||||
|
||||
---
|
||||
|
||||
### ✅ Testing Workflows (7 steps)
|
||||
|
||||
**step-7.2-prepare-testing:**
|
||||
- Flagged as having "9 distinct tasks"
|
||||
- Actually: Comprehensive preparation checklist
|
||||
- ONE task: "Prepare testing environment"
|
||||
- No changes needed
|
||||
|
||||
---
|
||||
|
||||
### ✅ Ongoing-Development Workflows (8 steps)
|
||||
|
||||
**step-8.3-design-update:**
|
||||
- Flagged as multi-task
|
||||
- Actually: Guided process for ONE task (design the update)
|
||||
- No changes needed
|
||||
|
||||
---
|
||||
|
||||
## Key Findings
|
||||
|
||||
### Pattern 1: Checklists vs. Multiple Tasks
|
||||
|
||||
**Many flagged steps were comprehensive checklists:**
|
||||
- Preparation steps with many items to check
|
||||
- Validation steps with many criteria
|
||||
- These are ONE task with thorough execution steps
|
||||
|
||||
**Example:** step-7.2-prepare-testing
|
||||
- 9 preparation categories
|
||||
- Still ONE task: "Prepare for testing"
|
||||
- No splitting needed
|
||||
|
||||
### Pattern 2: Guided Processes vs. Multiple Tasks
|
||||
|
||||
**Some flagged steps were guided processes:**
|
||||
- Multiple sections to complete
|
||||
- Sequential flow through a process
|
||||
- All parts of ONE cohesive task
|
||||
|
||||
**Example:** step-8.3-design-update
|
||||
- Define changes vs. staying
|
||||
- Create specifications
|
||||
- Design new components
|
||||
- Still ONE task: "Design the update"
|
||||
|
||||
### Pattern 3: True Multi-Task Steps
|
||||
|
||||
**Actually needed splitting/substeps:**
|
||||
- Generating multiple separate documents
|
||||
- Multiple distinct deliverables
|
||||
- Independent tasks bundled together
|
||||
|
||||
**Examples:**
|
||||
- step-03-generate-personas → 3 separate persona documents
|
||||
- step-6.2-create-delivery → 7 distinct YAML sections
|
||||
- step-6.3-create-test-scenario → 7 distinct test definitions
|
||||
|
||||
---
|
||||
|
||||
## Substep Pattern Implementation
|
||||
|
||||
### Pattern A: Split into Separate Steps
|
||||
|
||||
**Used for:** Multiple independent deliverables
|
||||
|
||||
**Example:** Persona generation
|
||||
- Each persona is a complete document
|
||||
- Can be worked on independently
|
||||
- Different focus per type
|
||||
|
||||
**Result:**
|
||||
- step-03a (Primary)
|
||||
- step-03b (Secondary)
|
||||
- step-03c (Tertiary, optional)
|
||||
|
||||
### Pattern B: Route to Substeps
|
||||
|
||||
**Used for:** Sequential sections of single deliverable
|
||||
|
||||
**Example:** Design Delivery creation
|
||||
- All sections go into ONE YAML file
|
||||
- Must be done in sequence
|
||||
- Each section is complex enough to be substep
|
||||
|
||||
**Result:**
|
||||
- Main step routes to 7 substeps
|
||||
- Each substep handles one YAML section
|
||||
- Preserves sequential workflow
|
||||
|
||||

|
||||
|
||||
## Statistics
|
||||
|
||||
### Before Optimization
|
||||
|
||||
**Files needing attention:** 5
|
||||
- step-03-generate-personas.md (138 lines)
|
||||
- step-6.2-create-delivery.md (310 lines)
|
||||
- step-6.3-create-test-scenario.md (similar)
|
||||
|
||||
**Total lines:** ~600-700 lines
|
||||
|
||||
### After Optimization
|
||||
|
||||
**New step files:** 5
|
||||
- step-03a-generate-primary-persona.md (96 lines)
|
||||
- step-03b-generate-secondary-persona.md (104 lines)
|
||||
- step-03c-generate-tertiary-persona.md (96 lines)
|
||||
- step-6.2-create-delivery.md (156 lines)
|
||||
- step-6.3-create-test-scenario.md (155 lines)
|
||||
|
||||
**Total lines:** ~607 lines (similar, but better organized)
|
||||
|
||||
**Reduction through substep extraction:**
|
||||
- step-6.2: -154 lines (-50%)
|
||||
- step-6.3: Similar reduction
|
||||
|
||||
**Substeps to create:** 14 files (7 for step-6.2, 7 for step-6.3)
|
||||

## Substeps Requiring Creation
|
||||
|
||||
**Priority: Medium**
|
||||
|
||||
The following substep directories need to be populated:
|
||||
|
||||

|
||||
|
||||
## Methodology Success
|
||||
|
||||
### What Worked
|
||||
|
||||
1. **Thorough Analysis:** Read every flagged file completely
|
||||
2. **Context Understanding:** Distinguished checklists from true multi-task steps
|
||||
3. **Pattern Recognition:** Identified when to split vs. when to use substeps
|
||||
4. **User Guidance:** User clarified: "split into separate steps" for personas
|
||||
5. **Consistent Patterns:** Applied established patterns (substep routing, sequential steps)
|
||||
|
||||
### Decision Criteria
|
||||
|
||||
**Split into separate steps when:**
|
||||
- Multiple independent deliverables
|
||||
- Different document outputs
|
||||
- Can work on parts independently
|
||||
|
||||
**Route to substeps when:**
|
||||
- Sequential sections of single deliverable
|
||||
- Building one file with multiple parts
|
||||
- Order matters
|
||||
|
||||
**Leave as-is when:**
|
||||
- Comprehensive checklist for ONE task
|
||||
- Guided process for ONE outcome
|
||||
- Sub-activities are execution steps
|
||||

## 📁 Output Structure
|
||||
|
||||
WDS creates a clean, alphabetized folder structure in your project's `docs/` folder:
|
||||
|
||||
| Folder | Phase | Purpose | Timing |
|
||||
| ------------------ | ----- | -------------------------------------------- | ------------------- |
|
||||
| `A-Product-Brief/` | 1 | Strategic foundation & vision | Start here |
|
||||
| `B-Trigger-Map/` | 2 | User psychology & business goals | After Phase 1 |
|
||||
| `C-Scenarios/` | 4 | UX specifications (HOW it works) | After Phase 2 |
|
||||
| `D-Design-System/` | 5 | Visual identity & components (HOW it looks) | **Anytime** 🎨 |
|
||||
| `D-PRD/` | 3 | Technical requirements (optional) | Before development |
|
||||
| `E-UI-Roadmap/` | 6 | Development handoff | After Phase 4 |
|
||||
|
||||
## 🎯 Design Phases
|
||||
|
||||
### Core Workflow
|
||||
|
||||
**Phase 1: Product Exploration** → `A-Product-Brief/`
|
||||
Define vision, positioning, and success criteria
|
||||
|
||||
**Phase 2: User Research** → `B-Trigger-Map/`
|
||||
Connect business goals to user psychology and triggers
|
||||
|
||||
**Phase 4: UX Design** → `C-Scenarios/`
|
||||
**HOW it works** - Functionality, interactions, content structure
|
||||
|
||||
**Phase 5: Visual Design** → `D-Design-System/`
|
||||
**HOW it looks** - Tie UX to brand, create visual system
|
||||
⚡ **Can start anytime** - Brand identity is independent of product!
|
||||
|
||||
### Optional Phases
|
||||
|
||||
**Phase 3: Requirements** → `D-PRD/` (for technical products)
|
||||
**Phase 6: Dev Integration** → `E-UI-Roadmap/` (handoff to development)
|
||||
|
||||

|
||||
|
||||
## 💡 Key Concepts
|
||||
|
||||
### UX vs Visual Design
|
||||
|
||||
```
|
||||
Phase 4 (UX Design)
|
||||
├─ Defines HOW it works
|
||||
├─ Functionality & interactions
|
||||
├─ Content structure & hierarchy
|
||||
└─ Question: "What does this do?"
|
||||
|
||||
Phase 5 (Visual Design)
|
||||
├─ Defines HOW it looks and feels
|
||||
├─ Brand expression & visual language
|
||||
├─ Design tokens & system
|
||||
└─ Question: "How does this feel like our brand?"
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
### Brand Independence
|
||||
|
||||
**Visual design is NOT tied to product timing!**
|
||||
|
||||
- ✅ Before product work (brand-first approach)
|
||||
- ✅ Parallel to strategy (simultaneous development)
|
||||
- ✅ After strategy (informed by insights)

||||

|
||||
|
||||
---
|
||||
|
||||
## 📋 Conventions
|
||||
|
||||
- **One README rule** - Only this README.md; all other docs use `xxx-guide.md` naming
|
||||
- **Alphabetized output** - A-B-C-D-E folder prefix for clean organization
|
||||
- **Design focus** - No development artifacts (handled by BMM)
|
||||
- **Phase-selectable** - Choose phases based on project needs
|
||||
- **Tool-agnostic** - Works with any design/development tools
|
||||
|
||||
## 🚀 Getting Started
|
||||
|
||||
### 1. Sideload Agents (Manual Installation)
|
||||
|
||||
Since the installer isn't working, manually copy agents:
|
||||
|
||||
```bash
|
||||
# Copy agent files to your IDE's agent folder
|
||||
cp src/modules/wds/agents/*.yaml <your-ide-agent-folder>/
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
### 2. Activate an Agent
|
||||
|
||||
In your IDE, activate one of the WDS agents:
|
||||
- **Saga** - Business & Product Analyst
|
||||
- **Idunn** - Product Manager
|
||||
- **Freya** - UX/UI Designer
|
||||
|
||||
### 3. Initialize Workflow
|
||||
|
||||
```
|
||||
*workflow-init
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
The agent will guide you through project setup and phase selection.
|
||||
|
||||
📖 **Detailed setup guide:** [docs/how-to/installation/install-bmad.md](../../docs/how-to/installation/install-bmad.md)
|
||||
|
||||
## 🔗 Integration with BMM
|
||||
|
||||
WDS design artifacts feed directly into BMad Method (BMM) development workflows:
|
||||
|
||||
```
|
||||
WDS Design System → E-UI-Roadmap/ → BMM Architecture & Stories → Development
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
**Handoff includes:**
|
||||
- Component specifications with Object IDs
|
||||
- Design tokens (colors, typography, spacing)
|
||||
- Interactive HTML prototypes
|
||||
- User flow documentation
|
||||
- Acceptance criteria

## Optimization Strategy Applied
|
||||
|
||||
### Primary Focus: One Task Per Step
|
||||
|
||||
**Key Principle:** "Let's make sure characters is not the benchmark. Let's instead focus on one task per step."
|
||||
|
||||
Every step file now has ONE clear, focused task:
|
||||
- Define purpose
|
||||
- Load context
|
||||
- Apply framework
|
||||
- Generate content
|
||||
- Verify quality
|
||||
|
||||
### Substep Extraction Pattern
|
||||
|
||||
Created **12 substep files** total across all workflows:
|
||||
|
||||
**Pattern:**
|
||||
1. Extract detailed examples (50-150 lines)
|
||||
2. Extract framework guides (100+ lines)
|
||||
3. Extract complete templates (40+ lines)
|
||||
4. Replace with condensed summary + reference link
|
||||
|
||||
**Reference Format:**
|
||||
```markdown
|
||||
**See:** [substeps/XX-descriptive-name.md](substeps/XX-descriptive-name.md)
|
||||
|
||||
Brief description of what the substep contains and why it's useful.
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
### Quality Preserved
|
||||
|
||||
- ✅ All examples preserved (not deleted)
|
||||
- ✅ All frameworks accessible via references
|
||||
- ✅ Educational value maintained
|
||||
- ✅ Implementation guidance intact
|
||||
- ✅ One-task-per-step focus achieved
|
||||
|
||||

||||
|
||||
### All Workflows Now Meet Standards
|
||||
|
||||
**250-Line Limit:** ✅ All step files under 250 lines
|
||||
**Micro-File Design:** ✅ Substeps enable just-in-time loading
|
||||
**Task Focus:** ✅ Each step has ONE clear task
|
||||
**Maintainability:** ✅ Easier to scan and understand
|
||||
|
||||
### Files by Size Range
|
||||
|
||||
**Under 100 lines:** 8 files
|
||||
**100-200 lines:** 9 files
|
||||
**200-250 lines:** 6 files
|
||||
**Over 250 lines:** 0 files ✅
|
||||
|
||||

|
||||
|
||||
## Impact Summary
|
||||
|
||||
**Before Optimization:**
|
||||

||||
|
||||
1. **Substep Pattern** - Consistent extraction pattern across all workflows
|
||||
2. **Reference Links** - Clear "See: substeps/XX-name.md" pattern
|
||||
3. **Context Preservation** - Brief descriptions explain what's in substeps
|
||||
4. **One-Task Focus** - Prioritizing task clarity over arbitrary line counts
|
||||
5. **Quality Maintenance** - Nothing deleted, everything accessible
|
||||
|
||||
### User Feedback Integration
|
||||
|
||||
**Initial Guidance:** "Let's make sure characters is not the benchmark. Let's instead focus on one task per step."
|
||||
|
||||
**Response:** Shifted from purely line-count reduction to ensuring:
|
||||
- Each step has ONE clear task
|
||||
- Line count became validation metric, not primary goal
|
||||
- Examples and frameworks moved to substeps for reference
|
||||
- Main files focus on the core task workflow
|
||||
|
||||

|
||||
|
||||
## Next Steps
|
||||
|
||||
All workflows in the WDS BMAD Method expansion are now optimized and compliant with BMAD v6 standards.
|
||||
|
||||
**Current Status:**
|
||||
- ✅ 6 workflows validated
|
||||
- ✅ 3 workflows optimized
|
||||
- ✅ 0 workflows over limit
|
||||
- ✅ 12 substep files created
|
||||
- ✅ 779 lines optimized
|
||||
|
||||
**Ready for:**
|
||||
- Production use
|
||||
- Further workflow development
|
||||
- Additional quality validation
|
||||
- Integration testing

## Regenerating SVG from Excalidraw
|
||||
|
||||
When you edit `workflow-method-greenfield.excalidraw`, regenerate the SVG:
|
||||
|
||||
1. Open <https://excalidraw.com/>
|
||||
2. Load the `.excalidraw` file
|
||||
3. Click menu (☰) → Export image → SVG
|
||||
4. **Set "Scale" to 1x** (default is 2x)
|
||||
5. Click "Export"
|
||||
6. Save as `workflow-method-greenfield.svg`
|
||||
7. **Validate the changes** (see below)
|
||||
8. Commit both files together
|
||||
|
||||
**Important:**
|
||||
|
||||
- Always use **1x scale** to maintain consistent dimensions
|
||||
- Automated export tools (`excalidraw-to-svg`) are broken - use manual export only
|
||||
|
||||
## Visual Validation
|
||||
|
||||
After regenerating the SVG, validate that it renders correctly:
|
||||
|
||||
```bash
|
||||
./tools/validate-svg-changes.sh path/to/workflow-method-greenfield.svg
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
This script:
|
||||
|
||||
- Checks for required dependencies (Playwright, ImageMagick)
|
||||
- Installs Playwright locally if needed (no package.json pollution)
|
||||
- Renders old vs new SVG using browser-accurate rendering
|
||||
- Compares pixel-by-pixel and generates a diff image
|
||||
- Outputs a prompt for AI visual analysis (paste into Gemini/Claude)
|
||||
|
||||
**Threshold**: <0.01% difference is acceptable (anti-aliasing variations)

# Documentation Style Guide
|
||||
|
||||
Internal guidelines for maintaining consistent, high-quality documentation across the BMad Method project. This document is not included in the Starlight sidebar — it's for contributors and maintainers, not end users.
|
||||
|
||||
## Quick Principles
|
||||
|
||||
1. **Clarity over brevity** — Be concise, but never at the cost of understanding
|
||||
2. **Consistent structure** — Follow established patterns so readers know what to expect
|
||||
3. **Strategic visuals** — Use admonitions, tables, and diagrams purposefully
|
||||
4. **Scannable content** — Headers, lists, and callouts help readers find what they need
|
||||
|
||||
## Validation Steps
|
||||
|
||||
Before submitting documentation changes, run these checks from the repo root:
|
||||
|
||||
1. **Fix link format** — Convert relative links (`./`, `../`) to site-relative paths (`/path/`)
|
||||
```bash
|
||||
npm run docs:fix-links # Preview changes
|
||||
npm run docs:fix-links -- --write # Apply changes
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
2. **Validate links** — Check all links point to existing files
|
||||
```bash
|
||||
npm run docs:validate-links # Preview issues
|
||||
npm run docs:validate-links -- --write # Auto-fix where possible
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
3. **Build the site** — Verify no build errors
|
||||
```bash
|
||||
npm run docs:build
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
## Tutorial Structure
|
||||
|
||||
Every tutorial should follow this structure:
|
||||
|
||||
```
|
||||
1. Title + Hook (1-2 sentences describing the outcome)
|
||||
2. Version/Module Notice (info or warning admonition as appropriate)
|
||||
3. What You'll Learn (bullet list of outcomes)
|
||||
4. Prerequisites (info admonition)
|
||||
5. Quick Path (tip admonition - TL;DR summary)
|
||||
6. Understanding [Topic] (context before steps - tables for phases/agents)
|
||||
7. Installation (if applicable)
|
||||
8. Step 1: [First Major Task]
|
||||
9. Step 2: [Second Major Task]
|
||||
10. Step 3: [Third Major Task]
|
||||
11. What You've Accomplished (summary + folder structure if applicable)
|
||||
12. Quick Reference (commands table)
|
||||
13. Common Questions (FAQ format)
|
||||
14. Getting Help (community links)
|
||||
15. Key Takeaways (tip admonition - memorable points)
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
Not all sections are required for every tutorial, but this is the standard flow.
|
||||
|
||||
## Visual Hierarchy
|
||||
|
||||
### Avoid
|
||||
|
||||
| Pattern | Problem |
|
||||
|---------|---------|
|
||||
| `---` horizontal rules | Fragment the reading flow |
|
||||
| `####` deep headers | Create visual noise |
|
||||
| **Important:** bold paragraphs | Blend into body text |
|
||||
| Deeply nested lists | Hard to scan |
|
||||
| Code blocks for non-code | Confusing semantics |
|
||||
|
||||
### Use Instead
|
||||
|
||||
| Pattern | When to Use |
|
||||
|---------|-------------|
|
||||
| White space + section headers | Natural content separation |
|
||||
| Bold text within paragraphs | Inline emphasis |
|
||||
| Admonitions | Callouts that need attention |
|
||||
| Tables | Structured comparisons |
|
||||
| Flat lists | Scannable options |
|
||||
|
||||
## Admonitions
|
||||
|
||||
Use Starlight admonitions strategically:
|
||||
|
||||
```md
|
||||
:::tip[Title]
|
||||
Shortcuts, best practices, "pro tips"
|
||||
:::
|
||||
|
||||
:::note[Title]
|
||||
Context, definitions, examples, prerequisites
|
||||
:::
|
||||
|
||||
:::caution[Title]
|
||||
Caveats, potential issues, things to watch out for
|
||||
:::
|
||||
|
||||
:::danger[Title]
|
||||
Critical warnings only — data loss, security issues
|
||||
:::
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
### Standard Admonition Uses
|
||||
|
||||
| Admonition | Standard Use in Tutorials |
|
||||
|------------|---------------------------|
|
||||
| `:::note[Prerequisites]` | What users need before starting |
|
||||
| `:::tip[Quick Path]` | TL;DR summary at top of tutorial |
|
||||
| `:::caution[Fresh Chats]` | Context limitation reminders |
|
||||
| `:::note[Example]` | Command/response examples |
|
||||
| `:::tip[Check Your Status]` | How to verify progress |
|
||||
| `:::tip[Remember These]` | Key takeaways at end |
|
||||
|
||||
### Admonition Guidelines
|
||||
|
||||
- **Always include a title** for tip, info, and warning
|
||||
- **Keep content brief** — 1-3 sentences ideal
|
||||
- **Don't overuse** — More than 3-4 per major section feels noisy
|
||||
- **Don't nest** — Admonitions inside admonitions are hard to read
|
||||
|
||||
## Headers
|
||||
|
||||
### Budget
|
||||
|
||||
- **8-12 `##` sections** for full tutorials following standard structure
|
||||
- **2-3 `###` subsections** per `##` section maximum
|
||||
- **Avoid `####` entirely** — use bold text or admonitions instead
|
||||
|
||||
### Naming
|
||||
|
||||
- Use action verbs for steps: "Install BMad", "Create Your Plan"
|
||||
- Use nouns for reference sections: "Common Questions", "Quick Reference"
|
||||
- Keep headers short and scannable
|
||||
|
||||
## Code Blocks
|
||||
|
||||
### Do
|
||||
|
||||
```md
|
||||
```bash
|
||||
npx bmad-method install
|
||||
```
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
### Don't
|
||||
|
||||
````md
|
||||
```
|
||||
You: Do something
|
||||
Agent: [Response here]
|
||||
```
|
||||
````
|
||||
|
||||
For command/response examples, use an admonition instead:
|
||||
|
||||
```md
|
||||
:::note[Example]
|
||||
Run `workflow-status` and the agent will tell you the next recommended workflow.
|
||||
:::
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
## Tables
|
||||
|
||||
Use tables for:
|
||||
- Phases and what happens in each
|
||||
- Agent roles and when to use them
|
||||
- Command references
|
||||
- Comparing options
|
||||
- Step sequences with multiple attributes
|
||||
|
||||
Keep tables simple:
|
||||
- 2-4 columns maximum
|
||||
- Short cell content
|
||||
- Left-align text, right-align numbers
|
||||
|
||||
### Standard Tables
|
||||
|
||||
**Phases Table:**
|
||||
```md
|
||||
| Phase | Name | What Happens |
|
||||
|-------|------|--------------|
|
||||
| 1 | Analysis | Brainstorm, research *(optional)* |
|
||||
| 2 | Planning | Requirements — PRD or tech-spec *(required)* |
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
**Quick Reference Table:**
|
||||
```md
|
||||
| Command | Agent | Purpose |
|
||||
|---------|-------|---------|
|
||||
| `*workflow-init` | Analyst | Initialize a new project |
|
||||
| `*prd` | PM | Create Product Requirements Document |
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
**Build Cycle Table:**
|
||||
```md
|
||||
| Step | Agent | Workflow | Purpose |
|
||||
|------|-------|----------|---------|
|
||||
| 1 | SM | `create-story` | Create story file from epic |
|
||||
| 2 | DEV | `dev-story` | Implement the story |
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
## Lists
|
||||
|
||||
### Flat Lists (Preferred)
|
||||
|
||||
```md
|
||||
- **Option A** — Description of option A
|
||||
- **Option B** — Description of option B
|
||||
- **Option C** — Description of option C
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
### Numbered Steps
|
||||
|
||||
```md
|
||||
1. Load the **PM agent** in a new chat
|
||||
2. Run the PRD workflow: `*prd`
|
||||
3. Output: `PRD.md`
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
### Avoid Deep Nesting
|
||||
|
||||
```md
|
||||
<!-- Don't do this -->
|
||||
1. First step
|
||||
- Sub-step A
|
||||
- Detail 1
|
||||
- Detail 2
|
||||
- Sub-step B
|
||||
2. Second step
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
Instead, break into separate sections or use an admonition for context.
|
||||
|
||||
## Links
|
||||
|
||||
- Use descriptive link text: `[Tutorial Style Guide](./tutorial-style.md)`
|
||||
- Avoid "click here" or bare URLs
|
||||
- Prefer relative paths within docs
|
||||
|
||||
## Images
|
||||
|
||||
- Always include alt text
|
||||
- Add a caption in italics below: `*Description of the image.*`
|
||||
- Use SVG for diagrams when possible
|
||||
- Store in `./images/` relative to the document
|
||||
|
||||
## FAQ Sections
|
||||
|
||||
Use a TOC with jump links, `###` headers for questions, and direct answers:
|
||||
|
||||
```md
|
||||
## Questions
|
||||
|
||||
- [Do I always need architecture?](#do-i-always-need-architecture)
|
||||
- [Can I change my plan later?](#can-i-change-my-plan-later)
|
||||
|
||||
### Do I always need architecture?
|
||||
|
||||
Only for BMad Method and Enterprise tracks. Quick Flow skips to implementation.
|
||||
|
||||
### Can I change my plan later?
|
||||
|
||||
Yes. The SM agent has a `correct-course` workflow for handling scope changes.
|
||||
|
||||
**Have a question not answered here?** Please [open an issue](...) or ask in [Discord](...) so we can add it!
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
### FAQ Guidelines
|
||||
|
||||
- **TOC at top** — Jump links under `## Questions` for quick navigation
|
||||
- **`###` headers** — Questions are scannable and linkable (no `Q:` prefix)
|
||||
- **Direct answers** — No `**A:**` prefix, just the answer
|
||||
- **No "Related Documentation"** — Sidebar handles navigation; avoid repetitive links
|
||||
- **End with CTA** — "Have a question not answered here?" with issue/Discord links
|
||||
|
||||
## Folder Structure Blocks
|
||||
|
||||
Show project structure in "What You've Accomplished":
|
||||
|
||||
````md
|
||||
Your project now has:

|
||||
- Why you're building it
|
||||
2. The complexity
|

## Step 1: Initialize Your Project
|
||||
|
||||
Load the **Analyst agent** in your IDE, wait for the menu, then run `workflow-init`.
|
||||
|
||||
:::note[What Happens]

## Understanding BMad
|
||||
|
||||
BMad helps you build software through guided workflows with specialized AI agents. The process follows four phases:
|
||||
|
||||
| Phase | Name | What Happens |
|
||||
|-------|------|--------------|
|
||||
| 1 | Analysis | Brainstorm, research *(optional)* |
|
||||
| 2 | Planning | Requirements — PRD or tech-spec *(required)* |
|
||||
| 3 | Solutioning | Architecture, design decisions *(varies by track)* |
|
||||
| 4 | Implementation | Build code story by story *(required)* |
|
||||
|
||||
Based on your project's complexity, BMad offers three planning tracks:
|
||||
|
||||
| Track | Best For | Documents Created |
|
||||
|-------|----------|-------------------|
|
||||
| **Quick Flow** | Bug fixes, simple features, clear scope | Tech-spec only |
|
||||
| **BMad Method** | Products, platforms, complex features | PRD + Architecture + UX |
|
||||
| **Enterprise** | Compliance, multi-tenant, enterprise needs | PRD + Architecture + Security + DevOps |
|
||||
|
||||
## Installation
|
||||
|
||||
Open a terminal in your project directory and run:
|
||||
|
||||
```bash
|
||||
npx bmad-method install
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
The interactive installer guides you through setup:
|
||||
|
||||
- **Choose Installation Location** — Select current directory (recommended), subdirectory, or custom path
|
||||
- **Select Your AI Tool** — Claude Code, Cursor, Windsurf, or other
|
||||
- **Choose Modules** — Select **BMM** (BMad Method) for this tutorial
|
||||
- **Accept Defaults** — Customize later in `_bmad/[module]/config.yaml`
|
||||

:::tip[Troubleshooting]
|
||||
Having issues? See [Install BMad](../../how-to/installation/install-bmad.md) for common solutions.
|
||||
:::
|
||||
|
||||
## Step 1: Initialize Your Project
|
||||
|
||||
Load the **Analyst agent** in your IDE:
|
||||
- **Claude Code**: Type `/analyst` or load the agent file directly
|
||||
- **Cursor/Windsurf**: Open the agent file from `_bmad/bmm/agents/`
|
||||
|
||||
Wait for the agent's menu to appear, then run:
|
||||
|
||||
```
|
||||
Run workflow-init
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
Or use the shorthand: `*workflow-init`
|
||||
|
||||
The workflow asks you to describe:
|
||||
- **Your project and goals** — What are you building? What problem does it solve?
|
||||
- **Existing codebase** — Is this new (greenfield) or existing code (brownfield)?
|
||||
- **Size and complexity** — Roughly how big is this? (adjustable later)
|
||||
|
||||
Based on your description, the workflow suggests a planning track. For this tutorial, choose **BMad Method**.
|
||||
|
||||
Once you confirm, the workflow creates `bmm-workflow-status.yaml` to track your progress.
|
||||
|
||||
:::caution[Fresh Chats]
|
||||
Always start a fresh chat for each workflow. This prevents context limitations from causing issues.
|
||||
:::
|
||||
|
||||
## Step 2: Create Your Plan
|
||||
|
||||
With your project initialized, work through the planning phases.
|
||||
|
||||
### Phase 1: Analysis (Optional)
|
||||
|
||||
If you want to brainstorm or research first:
|
||||
- **brainstorm-project** — Guided ideation with the Analyst
|
||||
- **research** — Market and technical research
|
||||
- **product-brief** — Recommended foundation document
|
||||
|
||||
### Phase 2: Planning (Required)
|
||||
|
||||
**Start a fresh chat** and load the **PM agent**.
|
||||
|
||||
```
|
||||
Run prd
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
Or use shortcuts: `*prd`, select "create-prd" from the menu, or say "Let's create a PRD".
|
||||
|
||||
The PM agent guides you through:
|
||||
1. **Project overview** — Refine your project description
|
||||
2. **Goals and success metrics** — What does success look like?
|
||||
3. **User personas** — Who uses this product?
|
||||
4. **Functional requirements** — What must the system do?
|
||||
5. **Non-functional requirements** — Performance, security, scalability needs
|
||||
|
||||
When complete, you'll have `PRD.md` in your `_bmad-output/` folder.
|
||||
|
||||
:::note[UX Design (Optional)]
|
||||
If your project has a user interface, load the **UX-Designer agent** and run the UX design workflow after creating your PRD.
|
||||
:::
|
||||
|
||||
### Phase 3: Solutioning (Required for BMad Method)
|
||||
|
||||
**Start a fresh chat** and load the **Architect agent**.
|
||||
|
||||
```
|
||||
Run create-architecture
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
The architect guides you through technical decisions: tech stack, database design, API patterns, and system structure.
|
||||
|
||||
:::tip[Check Your Status]
|
||||
Unsure what's next? Load any agent and run `workflow-status`. It tells you the next recommended or required workflow.
|
||||
:::
|
||||
|
||||
## Step 3: Build Your Project
|
||||
|
||||
Once planning is complete, move to implementation.
|
||||
|
||||
### Initialize Sprint Planning
|
||||
|
||||
Load the **SM agent** and run `sprint-planning`. This creates `sprint-status.yaml` to track all epics and stories.
|
||||
|
||||
### The Build Cycle
|
||||
|
||||
For each story, repeat this cycle with fresh chats:
|
||||
|
||||
| Step | Agent | Workflow | Purpose |
|
||||
|------|-------|----------|---------|
|
||||
| 1 | SM | `create-story` | Create story file from epic |
|
||||
| 2 | DEV | `dev-story` | Implement the story |
|
||||
| 3 | DEV | `code-review` | Quality validation *(recommended)* |
|
||||
|
||||
After completing all stories in an epic, load the **SM agent** and run `retrospective`.
|
||||
|
||||
## What You've Accomplished
|
||||
|
||||
You've learned the foundation of building with BMad:
|
||||
|
||||
- Installed BMad and configured it for your IDE
|
||||
- Initialized a project with your chosen planning track
|
||||
- Created planning documents (PRD, Architecture)
|
||||
- Understood the build cycle for implementation
|
||||
|
||||
Your project now has:
|
||||
|
||||
```
|
||||
your-project/
|
||||
├── _bmad/ # BMad configuration
|
||||
├── _bmad-output/
|
||||
│ ├── PRD.md # Your requirements document
|
||||
│ ├── architecture.md # Technical decisions
|
||||
│ └── bmm-workflow-status.yaml # Progress tracking
|
||||
└── ...
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
## Quick Reference
|
||||
|
||||
| Command | Agent | Purpose |
|
||||
|---------|-------|---------|
|
||||
| `*workflow-init` | Analyst | Initialize a new project |
|
||||
| `*workflow-status` | Any | Check progress and next steps |
|
||||
| `*prd` | PM | Create Product Requirements Document |
|
||||
| `*create-architecture` | Architect | Create architecture document |
|
||||
| `*sprint-planning` | SM | Initialize sprint tracking |
|
||||
| `*create-story` | SM | Create a story file |
|
||||
| `*dev-story` | DEV | Implement a story |
|
||||
| `*code-review` | DEV | Review implemented code |
|
||||
|
||||
## Common Questions
|
||||
|
||||
**Do I need to create a PRD for every project?**
|
||||
Only for BMad Method and Enterprise tracks. Quick Flow projects use a simpler tech-spec instead.
|
||||
|
||||
**Can I skip Phase 1 (Analysis)?**
|
||||
Yes, Phase 1 is optional. If you already know what you're building, start with Phase 2 (Planning).
|
||||
|
||||
**What if I want to brainstorm first?**
|
||||
Load the Analyst agent and run `*brainstorm-project` before `workflow-init`.
|
||||
|
||||
**Why start fresh chats for each workflow?**
|
||||
Workflows are context-intensive. Reusing chats can cause the AI to hallucinate or lose track of details. Fresh chats ensure maximum context capacity.
|
||||
|
||||
## Getting Help
|
||||
|
||||
- **During workflows** — Agents guide you with questions and explanations
|
||||
- **Check status** — Run `workflow-status` with any agent
|
||||
- **Community** — [Discord](https://discord.gg/gk8jAdXWmj) (#bmad-method-help, #report-bugs-and-issues)
|
||||
- **Video tutorials** — [BMad Code YouTube](https://www.youtube.com/@BMadCode)
|
||||
|
||||
## Key Takeaways
|
||||
|
||||
:::tip[Remember These]
|
||||
- **Always use fresh chats** — Load agents in new chats for each workflow
|
||||
- **Let workflow-status guide you** — Ask any agent for status when unsure
|
||||
- **Track matters** — Quick Flow uses tech-spec; Method/Enterprise need PRD and architecture
|
||||
- **Tracking is automatic** — Status files update themselves
|
||||
- **Agents are flexible** — Use menu numbers, shortcuts (`*prd`), or natural language

## Meta
|
||||
|
||||
| Field | Value |
|
||||
|-------|-------|
|
||||
| **Date** | 2026-01-23 |

| **Type** | 💾 Capture |
|
||||
| **Agent** | SAGA |
|
||||
| **Feature** | WDS Course New Features Integration |
|
||||
| **Specification** | N/A — Course content update |
|
||||
| **Status** | Not Started |
|
||||
|

---
|
||||
|
||||
## Purpose
|
||||
|
||||
Integrate recently added WDS features into the course materials:
|
||||
1. Agent Dialog Workflow
|
||||
2. Page Specification Open Questions (Audit)
|
||||
3. Eira Visual Design Agent integration
|
||||
|
||||
---
|
||||
|
||||
## Captured Thoughts
|
||||
|
||||
### Feature 1: Agent Dialog Workflow
|
||||
|
||||
**Location:** `src/workflows/9-agent-dialogs/`
|
||||
|
||||
**Key concepts to teach:**
|
||||
- **Bridge concept** — Dialogs connect specifications to development
|
||||
- **Single Source of Truth** — Specs are authoritative, dialogs link to them
|
||||
- **Object ID Implementation Maps** — Step files map Object IDs to spec line numbers
|
||||
- **Dialog types** — Prototype Implementation, Bug Fix, Design Exploration, Capture, Generic
|
||||
|
||||
**Key files:**
|
||||
- `workflow.md` — Main workflow documentation
|
||||
- `templates/dialog.template.md` — Generic dialog template
|
||||
- `templates/step.template.md` — Step file template
|
||||
- `templates/dialog-types/` — Type-specific templates
|
||||
|
||||
---
|
||||
|
||||
### Feature 2: Page Specification Open Questions (Audit)
|
||||
|
||||
**Location:** `src/workflows/4-ux-design/` (page specification templates)
|
||||
|
||||
**Key concepts to teach:**
|
||||
- **Open Questions section** — Every page spec should track unresolved questions
|
||||
- **Question status tracking** — 🔴 Open | 🟡 In Discussion | 🟢 Resolved
|
||||
- **Auto-population** — Agent instructions to identify gaps during spec creation
|
||||
|
||||
**Key files:**
|
||||
- `open-questions.instructions.md` — Instructions for agents to auto-populate questions
|
||||
- Page specification templates with Open Questions section
|
||||
|
||||
**Example from Dog Week:**
|
||||
```markdown
|
||||
## Open Questions
|
||||
|
||||
| # | Question | Context | Status |
|
||||
|---|----------|---------|--------|
|
||||
| 1 | What happens if network fails during booking? | Error handling | 🔴 Open |
|
||||
| 2 | Should "Cancel booking" show confirmation? | UX decision | 🔴 Open |
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
---
|
||||
|
||||
### Feature 3: Eira Visual Design Agent
|
||||
|
||||
**Location:** Check existing Eira dialog in F-Agent-Dialogs
|
||||
|
||||
**Key concepts to teach:**
|
||||
- Visual design agent persona
|
||||
- Design exploration workflow
|
||||
- Integration with Freya (UX) workflow
|
||||
|
||||
---
|
||||
|
||||
### Why These Matter
|
||||
|
||||
- **Agent Dialogs**: Critical for bridging spec → code without losing traceability
|
||||
- **Open Questions**: Prevents shipping specs with unresolved decisions
|
||||
- **Eira Integration**: Completes the design agent ecosystem
|
||||
|
||||
### Rough Approach
|
||||
|
||||
1. Create new learn-wds module: "Working with Agent Dialogs"
|
||||
2. Update page specification lessons to include Open Questions
|
||||
3. Add Eira to agent personas documentation
|
||||
4. Create hands-on exercises for each feature
|
||||
|
||||
### Notes
|
||||
|
||||
- Dog Week project has real examples of all three features
|
||||
- The "bridge diagram" is a powerful teaching visual
|
||||
- Emphasize "Link, Don't Duplicate" as a core principle
|
||||
|
||||
---
|
||||
|
||||
## Context for Next Agent
|
||||
|
||||
### Current Thinking
|
||||
|
||||
These three features represent significant additions to the WDS methodology:
|
||||
|
||||
1. **Agent Dialogs** — Mature enough to teach. Key insight: dialogs are a **navigation layer** between specs and code.
|
||||
2. **Open Questions** — Simple but powerful. Ensures specs don't ship with unresolved decisions.
|
||||
3. **Eira** — Completes the design agent ecosystem (Freya for UX, Eira for Visual).
|
||||
|
||||
### Open Questions
|
||||
|
||||
- Which learn-wds module should Agent Dialogs go in? (New module or extend existing?)
|
||||
- Should Open Questions be part of the page specification lesson or standalone?
|
||||
- Is Eira documented enough to add to the course, or needs more definition first?
|
||||
- Should we create a dedicated example project showcasing all three features?
|
||||
|
||||
### Concerns
|
||||
|
||||
- Learners might still try to copy spec content into step files
|
||||
- The line number references (L149-L158) in Object ID maps may feel tedious
|
||||
- Open Questions might be seen as "extra work" rather than essential
|
||||
|
||||
### Suggestions
|
||||
|
||||
- Use Dog Week as the running example — it has all three features in action
|
||||
- Create a "before/after" showing spec duplication vs. linking
|
||||
- Include the bridge diagram in course materials — it's a powerful visual
|
||||
- Show how Open Questions prevented shipping a broken feature

```
|
||||
|
||||
### Step 1: Technical Specification (`quick-spec`)
|
||||
|
||||
**Goal:** Transform user requirements into implementation-ready technical specifications
|
||||
|
||||
**Process:**
|
||||
|
||||
1. **Problem Understanding** - Clarify requirements, scope, and constraints
|
||||
2. **Code Investigation** - Analyze existing patterns and dependencies (if applicable)
|
||||
3. **Specification Generation** - Create comprehensive tech spec with:
|
||||
- Problem statement and solution overview
|
||||
- Development context and patterns
|
||||
- Implementation tasks with acceptance criteria
|
||||
- Technical decisions and dependencies
|
||||
4. **Review and Finalize** - Validate spec captures user intent
|
||||
|
||||
**Output:** `tech-spec-{slug}.md` saved to sprint artifacts
|
||||
|
||||
**Best Practices:**
|
||||
|
||||
- Include ALL context a fresh dev agent needs
|
||||
- Be specific about files, patterns, and conventions
|
||||

|
||||
|
||||
### Step 2: Development (`quick-dev`)
|
||||
|
||||
**Goal:** Execute implementation based on tech spec or direct instructions
|
||||
|
||||
**Two Modes:**
|
||||
|
||||
**Mode A: Tech-Spec Driven**
|
||||
|
||||
- Load existing tech spec
|
||||
- Extract tasks, context, and acceptance criteria
|
||||
- Execute all tasks continuously without stopping
|
||||
- Respect project context and existing patterns
|
||||
|
||||
**Mode B: Direct Instructions**
|
||||
|
||||
- Accept direct development commands
|
||||
- Offer optional planning step
|
||||
- Execute with minimal friction
|
||||
|
||||
**Process:**
|
||||
|
||||
1. **Load Project Context** - Understand patterns and conventions
|
||||
2. **Execute Implementation** - Work through all tasks:
|
||||
- Load relevant files and context

# Tech-Spec: User Authentication System
|
||||
|
||||
**Created:** 2025-01-15
|
||||
**Status:** Ready for Development
|
||||
|
||||
## Overview
|
||||
|
||||
### Problem Statement
|
||||
|
||||
Users cannot securely access the application, and we need role-based permissions for enterprise features.
|
||||
|
||||
### Solution
|
||||
|
||||
Implement OAuth 2.0 authentication with JWT tokens and role-based access control (RBAC).
|
||||
|
||||
### Scope (In/Out)
|
||||
|
||||
**In:** Login, logout, password reset, role management
|
||||
**Out:** Social login, SSO, multi-factor authentication (Phase 2)
|
||||
|
||||
## Context for Development
|
||||
|
||||
### Codebase Patterns
|
||||
|
||||
- Use existing auth middleware pattern in `src/middleware/auth.js`
|
||||
- Follow service layer pattern from `src/services/`
|
||||
- JWT secrets managed via environment variables
|
||||
|
||||
### Files to Reference
|
||||
|
||||
- `src/middleware/auth.js` - Authentication middleware
|
||||
- `src/models/User.js` - User data model
|
||||
- `config/database.js` - Database connection
|
||||
|
||||
### Technical Decisions
|
||||
|
||||
- JWT tokens over sessions for API scalability
|
||||
- bcrypt for password hashing
|
||||
- Role-based permissions stored in database
|
||||
|
||||
## Implementation Plan
|
||||
|
||||
### Tasks
|
||||
|
||||
- [ ] Create authentication service
|
||||
- [ ] Implement login/logout endpoints
|
||||
- [ ] Add JWT middleware
|
||||
- [ ] Create role-based permissions
|
||||
- [ ] Write comprehensive tests
|
||||
|
||||
### Acceptance Criteria
|
||||
|
||||
- [ ] Given valid credentials, when user logs in, then receive JWT token
|
||||
- [ ] Given invalid token, when accessing protected route, then return 401
|
||||
- [ ] Given admin role, when accessing admin endpoint, then allow access
|
||||
```

A: Use Barry for Quick Flow development (small to medium features), rapid prototyping, or when you need elite solo development. For large, complex projects requiring full team collaboration, consider the full BMad Method with specialized agents.
|
||||
|
||||
**Q: Is the code review step mandatory?**
|
||||
A: No, it's optional but highly recommended for critical features, team projects, or when learning best practices.
|
||||
|
||||
**Q: Can I skip the tech spec step?**
|
||||
A: Yes, the quick-dev workflow accepts direct instructions. However, tech specs are recommended for complex features or team collaboration.
|
||||
|
||||
**Q: How does Barry differ from the Dev agent?**
|
||||
A: Barry handles the complete Quick Flow process (spec → dev → review) with elite architectural expertise, while the Dev agent specializes in pure implementation tasks. Barry is your autonomous end-to-end solution.
|
||||
|
||||
**Q: Can Barry handle enterprise-scale projects?**
|
||||

title: "The Four Phases of BMad Method"
|
||||
description: Understanding the four phases of the BMad Method
|
||||
---
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
BMad Method uses a four-phase approach that adapts to project complexity while ensuring consistent quality.
|
||||
|
||||
---
|
||||
|
||||
## Phase Overview
|
||||
|
||||
| Phase | Name | Purpose | Required? |
|
||||
|-------|------|---------|-----------|
|
||||
| **Phase 1** | Analysis | Exploration and discovery | Optional |
|
||||
| **Phase 2** | Planning | Requirements definition | Required |
|
||||
| **Phase 3** | Solutioning | Technical design | Track-dependent |
|
||||
| **Phase 4** | Implementation | Building the software | Required |
|
||||
|
||||
---
|
||||
|
||||
## Phase 1: Analysis (Optional)
|
||||
|
||||
Exploration and discovery workflows that help validate ideas and understand markets before planning.
|
||||
|
||||
**Workflows:**
|
||||
- `brainstorm-project` - Solution exploration
|
||||
- `research` - Market/technical/competitive research
|
||||
- `product-brief` - Strategic vision capture
|
||||
|
||||
**When to use:**
|
||||
- Starting new projects
|
||||
- Exploring opportunities
|
||||
- Validating market fit
|
||||
|
||||
**When to skip:**
|
||||
- Clear requirements
|
||||
- Well-defined features
|
||||
- Continuing existing work
|
||||
|
||||
---
|
||||
|
||||
## Phase 2: Planning (Required)
|
||||
|
||||
Requirements definition using the scale-adaptive system to match planning depth to project complexity.
|
||||
|
||||
**Workflows:**
|
||||
- `prd` - Product Requirements Document (BMad Method/Enterprise)
|
||||
- `tech-spec` - Technical specification (Quick Flow)
|
||||
- `create-ux-design` - Optional UX specification
|
||||
|
||||
**Key principle:**
|
||||
Define **what** to build and **why**. Leave **how** to Phase 3.
|
||||
|
||||
---
|
||||
|
||||
## Phase 3: Solutioning (Track-Dependent)
|
||||
|
||||
Technical architecture and design decisions that prevent agent conflicts during implementation.
|
||||
|
||||
**Workflows:**
|
||||
- `architecture` - System design with ADRs
|
||||
- `create-epics-and-stories` - Work breakdown (after architecture)
|
||||
- `implementation-readiness` - Gate check
|
||||
|
||||
**Required for:**
|
||||
- BMad Method (complex projects)
|
||||
- Enterprise Method
|
||||
|
||||
**Skip for:**
|
||||
- Quick Flow (simple changes)
|
||||
|
||||
**Key principle:**
|
||||
Make technical decisions explicit so all agents implement consistently.
|
||||
|
||||
---
|
||||
|
||||
## Phase 4: Implementation (Required)
|
||||
|
||||
Iterative sprint-based development with story-centric workflow.
|
||||
|
||||
**Workflows:**
|
||||
- `sprint-planning` - Initialize tracking
|
||||
- `create-story` - Prepare stories
|
||||
- `dev-story` - Implement with tests
|
||||
- `code-review` - Quality assurance
|
||||
- `retrospective` - Continuous improvement
|
||||
|
||||
**Key principle:**
|
||||
One story at a time, complete each story's full lifecycle before starting the next.
|
||||
|
||||
---
|
||||
|
||||
## Phase Flow by Track
|
||||
|
||||
### Quick Flow
|
||||
|
||||
```
|
||||
Phase 2 (tech-spec) → Phase 4 (implement)
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
Skip Phases 1 and 3 for simple changes.
|
||||
|
||||
### BMad Method
|
||||
|
||||
```
|
||||
Phase 1 (optional) → Phase 2 (PRD) → Phase 3 (architecture) → Phase 4 (implement)
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
Full methodology for complex projects.
|
||||
|
||||
### Enterprise
|
||||
|
||||
```
|
||||
Phase 1 → Phase 2 (PRD) → Phase 3 (architecture + extended) → Phase 4 (implement)
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
Same as BMad Method with optional extended workflows.

title: "Preventing Agent Conflicts"
|
||||
description: How architecture prevents conflicts when multiple agents implement a system
|
||||
---
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
When multiple AI agents implement different parts of a system, they can make conflicting technical decisions. Architecture documentation prevents this by establishing shared standards.
|
||||
|
||||
---
|
||||
|
||||
## Common Conflict Types
|
||||
|
||||
### API Style Conflicts
|
||||
|
||||
Without architecture:
|
||||
- Agent A uses REST with `/users/{id}`
|
||||
- Agent B uses GraphQL mutations
|
||||
- Result: Inconsistent API patterns, confused consumers
|
||||
|
||||
With architecture:
|
||||
- ADR specifies: "Use GraphQL for all client-server communication"
|
||||
- All agents follow the same pattern
|
||||
|
||||
### Database Design Conflicts
|
||||
|
||||
Without architecture:
|
||||
- Agent A uses snake_case column names
|
||||
- Agent B uses camelCase column names
|
||||
- Result: Inconsistent schema, confusing queries
|
||||
|
||||
With architecture:
|
||||
- Standards document specifies naming conventions
|
||||
- All agents follow the same patterns
|
||||
|
||||
### State Management Conflicts
|
||||
|
||||
Without architecture:
|
||||
- Agent A uses Redux for global state
|
||||
- Agent B uses React Context
|
||||
- Result: Multiple state management approaches, complexity
|
||||
|
||||
With architecture:
|
||||
- ADR specifies state management approach
|
||||
- All agents implement consistently
|
||||
|
||||
---
|
||||
|
||||
## How Architecture Prevents Conflicts
|
||||
|
||||
### 1. Explicit Decisions via ADRs
|
||||
|
||||
Every significant technology choice is documented with:
|
||||
- Context (why this decision matters)
|
||||
- Options considered (what alternatives exist)
|
||||
- Decision (what we chose)
|
||||
- Rationale (why we chose it)
|
||||
- Consequences (trade-offs accepted)
|
||||
|
||||
### 2. FR/NFR-Specific Guidance
|
||||
|
||||
Architecture maps each functional requirement to technical approach:
|
||||
- FR-001: User Management → GraphQL mutations
|
||||
- FR-002: Mobile App → Optimized queries
|
||||
|
||||
### 3. Standards and Conventions
|
||||
|
||||
Explicit documentation of:
|
||||
- Directory structure
|
||||
- Naming conventions
|
||||
- Code organization
|
||||
- Testing patterns
|
||||
|
||||
---
|
||||
|
||||
## Architecture as Shared Context
|
||||
|
||||
Think of architecture as the shared context that all agents read before implementing:
|
||||
|
||||
```
|
||||
PRD: "What to build"
|
||||
↓
|
||||
Architecture: "How to build it"
|
||||
↓
|
||||
Agent A reads architecture → implements Epic 1
|
||||
Agent B reads architecture → implements Epic 2
|
||||
Agent C reads architecture → implements Epic 3
|
||||
↓
|
||||
Result: Consistent implementation
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
---
|
||||
|
||||
## Key ADR Topics
|
||||
|
||||
Common decisions that prevent conflicts:
|
||||
|
||||
| Topic | Example Decision |
|
||||
|-------|-----------------|
|
||||
| API Style | GraphQL vs REST vs gRPC |
|
||||
| Database | PostgreSQL vs MongoDB |
|
||||
| Auth | JWT vs Sessions |
|
||||
| State Management | Redux vs Context vs Zustand |
|
||||
| Styling | CSS Modules vs Tailwind vs Styled Components |
|
||||
| Testing | Jest + Playwright vs Vitest + Cypress |
|
||||
|
||||
---
|
||||
|
||||
## Anti-Patterns
|
||||
|
||||
### ❌ Implicit Decisions
|
||||
|
||||
"We'll figure out the API style as we go"
|
||||
→ Leads to inconsistency
|
||||
|
||||
### ❌ Over-Documentation
|
||||
|
||||
Every minor choice documented
|
||||
→ Analysis paralysis, wasted time
|
||||
|
||||
### ❌ Stale Architecture
|
||||
|
||||
Document written once, never updated
|
||||
→ Agents follow outdated patterns
|
||||
|
||||
### ✅ Correct Approach
|
||||
|
||||
- Document decisions that cross epic boundaries
|
||||
- Focus on conflict-prone areas
|
||||
- Update architecture as you learn
|
||||
- Use `correct-course` for significant changes

title: "Why Solutioning Matters"
|
||||
description: Understanding why the solutioning phase is critical for multi-epic projects
|
||||
---
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
Phase 3 (Solutioning) translates **what** to build (from Planning) into **how** to build it (technical design). This phase prevents agent conflicts in multi-epic projects by documenting architectural decisions before implementation begins.
|
||||
|
||||
---
|
||||
|
||||
## The Problem Without Solutioning
|
||||
|
||||
```
|
||||
Agent 1 implements Epic 1 using REST API
|
||||
Agent 2 implements Epic 2 using GraphQL
|
||||
Result: Inconsistent API design, integration nightmare
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
When multiple agents implement different parts of a system without shared architectural guidance, they make independent technical decisions that may conflict.
|
||||
|
||||
---
|
||||
|
||||
## The Solution With Solutioning
|
||||
|
||||
```
|
||||
architecture workflow decides: "Use GraphQL for all APIs"
|
||||
All agents follow architecture decisions
|
||||
Result: Consistent implementation, no conflicts
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
By documenting technical decisions explicitly, all agents implement consistently and integration becomes straightforward.
|
||||
|
||||
---
|
||||
|
||||
## Solutioning vs Planning
|
||||
|
||||
| Aspect | Planning (Phase 2) | Solutioning (Phase 3) |
|
||||
| -------- | ----------------------- | --------------------------------- |
|
||||
| Question | What and Why? | How? Then What units of work? |
|
||||
| Output | FRs/NFRs (Requirements) | Architecture + Epics/Stories |
|
||||
| Agent | PM | Architect → PM |
|
||||
| Audience | Stakeholders | Developers |
|
||||
| Document | PRD (FRs/NFRs) | Architecture + Epic Files |
|
||||
| Level | Business logic | Technical design + Work breakdown |
|
||||
|
||||
---
|
||||
|
||||
## Key Principle
|
||||
|
||||
**Make technical decisions explicit and documented** so all agents implement consistently.
|
||||
|
||||
This prevents:
|
||||
- API style conflicts (REST vs GraphQL)
|
||||
- Database design inconsistencies
|
||||
- State management disagreements
|
||||
- Naming convention mismatches
|
||||
- Security approach variations
|
||||
|
||||
---
|
||||
|
||||
## When Solutioning is Required
|
||||
|
||||
| Track | Solutioning Required? |
|
||||
|-------|----------------------|
|
||||
| Quick Flow | No - skip entirely |
|
||||
| BMad Method Simple | Optional |
|
||||
| BMad Method Complex | Yes |
|
||||
| Enterprise | Yes |
|
||||
|
||||
**Rule of thumb:** If you have multiple epics that could be implemented by different agents, you need solutioning.
|
||||
|
||||
---
|
||||
|
||||
## The Cost of Skipping
|
||||
|
||||
Skipping solutioning on complex projects leads to:
|
||||
|
||||
- **Integration issues** discovered mid-sprint
|
||||
- **Rework** due to conflicting implementations
|
||||
- **Longer development time** overall
|
||||
- **Technical debt** from inconsistent patterns
|
||||
|
||||
Catching alignment issues in solutioning is 10× faster than discovering them during implementation.

title: "Custom Content"
|
||||
---
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
BMad supports several categories of officially supported custom content that extend the platform's capabilities. Custom content can be created manually or with the recommended assistance of the BMad Builder (BoMB) Module. The BoMB Agents provides workflows and expertise to plan and build any custom content you can imagine.
|
||||
|
||||
This flexibility transforms the platform beyond its current capabilities, enabling:
|
||||
|
||||
- Extensions and add-ons for existing modules (BMad Method, Creative Intelligence Suite)
|
||||
- Completely new modules, workflows, templates, and agents outside software engineering
|
||||
- Professional services tools
|
||||
- Entertainment and educational content
|
||||
- Science and engineering workflows
|
||||
- Productivity and self-help solutions
|
||||
- Role-specific augmentation for virtually any profession
|
||||
|
||||
## Categories
|
||||
|
||||
- [Custom Stand-Alone Modules](#custom-stand-alone-modules)
|
||||
- [Custom Add-On Modules](#custom-add-on-modules)
|
||||
- [Custom Global Modules](#custom-global-modules)
|
||||
- [Custom Agents](#custom-agents)
|
||||
- [Custom Workflows](#custom-workflows)
|
||||
|
||||
## Custom Stand-Alone Modules
|
||||
|
||||
Custom modules range from simple collections of related agents, workflows, and tools designed to work independently, to complex, expansive systems like the BMad Method or even larger applications.
|
||||
|
||||
Custom modules are [installable](/docs/how-to/installation/install-custom-modules.md) using the standard BMad method and support advanced features:
|
||||
|
||||
- Optional user information collection during installation/updates
|
||||
- Versioning and upgrade paths
|
||||
- Custom installer functions with IDE-specific post-installation handling (custom hooks, subagents, or vendor-specific tools)
|
||||
- Ability to bundle specific tools such as MCP, skills, execution libraries, and code
|
||||
|
||||
## Custom Add-On Modules
|
||||
|
||||
Custom Add-On Modules contain specific agents, tools, or workflows that expand, modify, or customize another module but cannot exist or install independently. These add-ons provide enhanced functionality while leveraging the base module's existing capabilities.
|
||||
|
||||
Examples include:
|
||||
|
||||
- Alternative implementation workflows for BMad Method agents
|
||||
- Framework-specific support for particular use cases
|
||||
- Game development expansions that add new genre-specific capabilities without reinventing existing functionality
|
||||
|
||||
Add-on modules can include:
|
||||
|
||||
- Custom agents with awareness of the target module
|
||||
- Access to existing module workflows
|
||||
- Tool-specific features such as rulesets, hooks, subprocess prompts, subagents, and more
|
||||
|
||||
## Custom Global Modules
|
||||
|
||||
Similar to Custom Stand-Alone Modules, but designed to add functionality that applies across all installed content. These modules provide cross-cutting capabilities that enhance the entire BMad ecosystem.
|
||||
|
||||
Examples include:
|
||||
|
||||
- The current TTS (Text-to-Speech) functionality for Claude, which will soon be converted to a global module
|
||||
- The core module, which is always installed and provides all agents with party mode and advanced elicitation capabilities
|
||||
- Installation and update tools that work with any BMad method configuration
|
||||
|
||||
Upcoming standards will document best practices for building global content that affects installed modules through:
|
||||
|
||||
- Custom content injections
|
||||
- Agent customization auto-injection
|
||||
- Tooling installers
|
||||
|
||||
## Custom Agents
|
||||
|
||||
Custom Agents can be designed and built for various use cases, from one-off specialized agents to more generic standalone solutions.
|
||||
|
||||

Personal agents designed for highly specific needs that may not be suitable for sharing. For example, a team management agent living in an Obsidian vault that helps with:
|
||||
|
||||
- Team coordination and management
|
||||
- Understanding team details and requirements
|
||||
- Tracking specific tasks with designated tools
|
||||
|
||||
These are simple, standalone files that can be scoped to focus on specific data or paths when integrated into an information vault or repository.
|
||||
|
||||
### Simple and Expert Agents
|
||||
|
||||
The distinction between simple and expert agents lies in their structure:
|
||||
|
||||
**Simple Agent:**
|
||||
|
||||
- Single file containing all prompts and configuration
|
||||
- Self-contained and straightforward
|
||||
|
||||
**Expert Agent:**
|
||||
|
||||
- Similar to simple agents but includes a sidecar folder
|
||||
- Sidecar folder contains additional resources: custom prompt files, scripts, templates, and memory files
|
||||
- When installed, the sidecar folder (`[agentname]-sidecar`) is placed in the user memory location
|
||||
- has metadata type: expert
|
||||
|
||||
The key distinction is the presence of a sidecar folder. As web and consumer agent tools evolve to support common memory mechanisms, storage formats, and MCP, the writable memory files will adapt to support these evolving standards.
|
||||
|
||||
Custom agents can be:
|
||||
|
||||
- Used within custom modules
|
||||
- Designed as standalone tools
|
||||
- Integrated with existing workflows and systems, if this is to be the case, should also include a module: <module name> if a specific module is intended for it to require working with
|
||||
|
||||
## Custom Workflows
|
||||
|
||||
Workflows are powerful, progressively loading sequence engines capable of performing tasks ranging from simple to complex, including:
|
||||
|
||||
- User engagements
|
||||
- Business processes
|
||||
- Content generation (code, documentation, or other output formats)
|
||||
|
||||
A custom workflow created outside of a larger module can still be distributed and used without associated agents through:
|
||||
|
||||
- Slash commands
|
||||
- Manual command/prompt execution when supported by tools
|
||||
|
||||
At its core, a custom workflow is a single or series of prompts designed to achieve a specific outcome.

## Agent Architecture
|
||||
|
||||
Comprehensive guides for each agent type:
|
||||
|
||||
- **Simple Agent Architecture** - Self-contained, optimized, personality-driven
|
||||
- **Expert Agent Architecture** - Memory, sidecar files, domain restrictions
|
||||

||||
---
|
||||
|
||||
## Key Concepts
|
||||
|
||||
### YAML to XML Compilation
|
||||
|
||||
Agents are authored in YAML with Handlebars templating. The compiler auto-injects:
|
||||
|
||||
1. **Frontmatter** - Name and description from metadata
|
||||
2. **Activation Block** - Steps, menu handlers, rules
|
||||
3. **Menu Enhancement** - `*help` and `*exit` commands added automatically
|
||||
4. **Trigger Prefixing** - Your triggers auto-prefixed with `*`

|
||||
- Installation and setup
|
||||
- Understanding the four phases
|
||||
- Running your first workflows
|
||||

### 📊 Visual Overview
|
||||
|
||||
**[Complete Workflow Diagram](../../tutorials/getting-started/images/workflow-method-greenfield.svg)** - Visual flowchart showing all phases, agents (color-coded), and decision points for the BMad Method standard greenfield track.
|
||||
|
||||
## 📖 Core Concepts
|
||||
|
||||
The BMad Method is meant to be adapted and customized to your specific needs. In this realm there is no one size fits all - your needs are unique, and BMad Method is meant to support this (and if it does not, can be further customized or extended with new modules).
|
||||
|
||||
First know there is the full BMad Method Process and then there is a Quick Flow for those quicker smaller efforts.
|
||||
|
||||
- **[Full Adaptive BMad Method](#workflow-guides)** - Full planning and scope support through extensive development and testing.
|
||||
- Broken down into 4 phases, all of which are comprised of both required and optional phases
|
||||
- Phases 1-3 are all about progressive idea development through planning and preparations to build your project.
|
||||
- Phase 4 is the implementation cycle where you will Just In Time (JIT) produce the contextual stories needed for the dev agent based on the extensive planning completed
|
||||
- All 4 phases have optional steps in them, depending on how rigorous you want to go with planning, research ideation, validation, testing and traceability.
|
||||
- While there is a lot here, know that even this can be distilled down to a simple PRD, Epic and Story list and then jump into the dev cycle. But if that is all you want, you might be better off with the BMad Quick Flow described next
|
||||
|
||||
- **[BMad Quick Flow](/docs/explanation/features/quick-flow.md)** - Fast-track development workflow
|
||||
- 3-step process: spec → dev → optional review
|
||||
- Perfect for bug fixes and small features
|
||||
- Rapid prototyping with production quality
|
||||
- Implementation in minutes, not days
|
||||
- Has a specialized single agent that does all of this: **[Quick Flow Solo Dev Agent](/docs/explanation/agents/barry-quick-flow.md)**
|
||||
|
||||
- **TEA engagement (optional)** - Choose TEA engagement: none, TEA-only (standalone), or integrated by track. See **[Test Architect Guide](/docs/explanation/features/tea-overview.md)**.

Agents are AI assistants that help you accomplish tasks. Each agent has a unique personality, specialized capabilities, and an interactive menu.
|
||||
|
||||
## Agent Types
|
||||
|
||||
BMad has two primary agent types, designed for different use cases:
|
||||
|
||||
### Simple Agents

Simple agents are complete in a single file. They excel at well-defined tasks and require minimal setup.
|
||||
|
||||
**Best for:**
|
||||
- Single-purpose assistants (code review, documentation, commit messages)
|
||||
- Quick deployment
|
||||
- Projects that don't require persistent memory
|
||||
- Getting started fast
|
||||
|
||||
**Example:** A commit message agent that reads your git diff and generates conventional commits.
|
||||
|
||||
### Expert Agents
|
||||
|
||||
**Powerful, memory-equipped, domain specialists.**
|
||||
|
||||
Expert agents have a **sidecar** - a companion folder containing additional instructions, workflows, and memory files. They remember context across sessions and handle complex, multi-step tasks.
|
||||
|
||||
**Best for:**
|
||||
- Domain specialists (security architect, game designer, product manager)
|
||||
- Tasks requiring persistent memory
|
||||
- Complex workflows with multiple stages
|
||||
- Projects that grow over time
|
||||
|
||||
**Example:** A game architect that remembers your design decisions, maintains consistency across sprints, and coordinates with other specialists.
|
||||
|
||||
## Key Differences
|
||||
|
||||
| Feature | Simple | Expert |
|
||||
| ---------------- | -------------- | -------------------------- |
|
||||
| **Files** | Single file | Agent + sidecar folder |
|
||||
| **Memory** | Session only | Persistent across sessions |
|
||||
| **Capabilities** | Focused scope | Multi-domain, extensible |
|
||||
| **Setup** | Zero config | Sidecar initialization |
|
||||
| **Best Use** | Specific tasks | Ongoing projects |
|
||||
|
||||
## Agent Components
|
||||
|
||||
All agents share these building blocks:
|
||||
|
||||
### Persona
|
||||
- **Role** - What the agent does (expertise domain)
|
||||
- **Identity** - Who the agent is (personality, character)
|
||||
- **Communication Style** - How the agent speaks (tone, voice)
|
||||
- **Principles** - Why the agent acts (values, decision framework)
|
||||
|
||||
### Capabilities
|
||||
- Skills, tools, and knowledge the agent can apply
|
||||
- Mapped to specific menu commands
|
||||
|
||||
### Menu
|
||||
- Interactive command list
|
||||
- Triggers, descriptions, and handlers
|
||||
- Auto-includes help and exit options
|
||||
|
||||
### Critical Actions (optional)
|
||||
- Instructions that execute before the agent starts
|
||||
- Enable autonomous behaviors (e.g., "check git status before changes")
|
||||
|
||||
## Which Should You Use?
|
||||
|
||||
**Choose Simple when:**
|
||||
- You need a task done quickly and reliably
|
||||
- The scope is well-defined and won't change much
|
||||
- You don't need the agent to remember things between sessions
|
||||
|
||||
**Choose Expert when:**
|
||||
- You're building something complex over time
|
||||
- The agent needs to maintain context (project history, decisions)
|
||||
- You want the agent to coordinate workflows or other agents
|
||||
- Domain expertise requires specialized knowledge bases
|
||||
|
||||
## Creating Custom Agents
|
||||
|
||||
BMad provides the **BMad Builder (BMB)** module for creating your own agents. See the [Agent Creation Guide](/docs/tutorials/advanced/create-custom-agent.md) for step-by-step instructions.
|
||||
|
||||
## Customizing Existing Agents
|
||||
|
||||
You can modify any agent's behavior without editing core files. See [BMad Customization](/docs/how-to/customization/index.md) for details. It is critical to never modify an installed agents .md file directly and follow the customization process, this way future updates to the agent or module its part of will continue to be updated and recompiled with the installer tool, and your customizations will still be retained.

title: "Workflows"
|
||||
---
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
Workflows are like prompts on steroids. They harness the untapped power and control of LLMs through progressive disclosure—breaking complex tasks into focused steps that execute sequentially. Instead of random AI slop where you hope for the best, workflows give you repeatable, reliable, high-quality outputs.
|
||||
|
||||
This guide explains what workflows are, why they're powerful, and how to think about designing them.
|
||||
|
||||
---
|
||||
|
||||
## What Is a Workflow?
|
||||
|
||||
A workflow is a structured process where the AI executes steps sequentially to accomplish a task. Each step has a specific purpose, and the AI moves through them methodically—whether that involves extensive collaboration or minimal user interaction.
|
||||
|
||||
Think of it this way: instead of asking "help me build a nutrition plan" and getting a generic response, a workflow guides you (or runs automatically) through discovery, assessment, strategy, shopping lists, and prep schedules—each step building on the last, nothing missed, no shortcuts taken.
|
||||
|
||||
## How do workflows differ from skills?
|
||||
|
||||
Actually they really do not - a workflow can be a skill, and a skill can be a workflow. The main thing with a BMad workflow is the suggestion to follow certain conventions, which actually are also skill best practices. A skill has a few optional and required fields to add as the main file workflow and get stored in a specific location depending on your tool choice for automatic invocation by the llm - whereas workflows are generally intentionally launched, with from another process calling them, or a user invoking via a slash command. In the near future, workflows will optionally be installable as skills also - but if you like, you can add front matter to your custom workflows based on the skill spec from Anthropic, and put them in the proper location your tool dictates.
|
||||
|
||||
### The Power of Progressive Disclosure
|
||||
|
||||
Here's why workflows work so well: the AI only sees the current step. It doesn't know about step 5 when it's on step 2. It can't get ahead of itself, skip steps, or lose focus. Each step gets the AI's full attention, completing fully before the next step loads.
|
||||
|
||||
This is the opposite of a giant prompt that tries to handle everything at once and inevitably misses details or loses coherence.
|
||||
|
||||
Workflows exist on a spectrum:
|
||||
|
||||
- **Interactive workflows** guide users through complex decisions via collaboration and facilitation
|
||||
- **Automated workflows** run with minimal user input, processing documents or executing tasks
|
||||
- **Hybrid workflows** combine both—some steps need user input, others run automatically
|
||||
|
||||
### Real-World Workflow Examples
|
||||
|
||||
**Tax Organizer Workflow**
|
||||
|
||||
A tax preparation workflow that helps users organize financial documents for tax filing. Runs in a single session, follows prescriptive IRS categories, produces a checklist of required documents with missing-item alerts. Sequential and compliance-focused.
|
||||
|
||||
**Meal Planning Workflow**
|
||||
|
||||
Creates personalized weekly meal plans through collaborative nutrition planning. Users can stop mid-session and return later because the workflow tracks progress. Intent-based conversation helps discover preferences rather than following a script. Multi-session, creative, and highly interactive.
|
||||
|
||||
**Course Creator Workflow**
|
||||
|
||||
Helps instructors design course syllabi. Branches based on course type—academic courses need accreditation sections, vocational courses need certification prep, self-paced courses need different structures entirely.
|
||||
|
||||
**Therapy Intake Workflow**
|
||||
|
||||
Guides mental health professionals through structured client intake sessions. Highly sensitive and confidential, uses intent-based questioning to build rapport while ensuring all required clinical information is collected. Continuable across multiple sessions.
|
||||
|
||||
**Software Architecture Workflow** (BMM Module)
|
||||
|
||||
Part of a larger software development pipeline. Runs after product requirements and UX design are complete, takes those documents as input, then collaboratively walks through technical decisions: system components, data flows, technology choices, architectural patterns. Produces an architecture document that implementation teams use to build consistently.
|
||||
|
||||
**Shard Document Workflow**
|
||||
|
||||
Nearly hands-off automated workflow. Takes a large document as input, uses a custom npx tool to split it into smaller files, deletes the original, then augments an index with content details so the LLM can efficiently find and reference specific sections later. Minimal user interaction—just specify the input document.
|
||||
|
||||
These examples show the range: from collaborative creative processes to automated batch jobs, workflows ensure completeness and consistency whether the work involves deep collaboration or minimal human oversight.
|
||||
|
||||
### The Facilitative Philosophy
|
||||
|
||||
When workflows involve users, they should be **facilitative, not directive**. The AI treats users as partners and domain experts, not as passive recipients of generated content.
|
||||
|
||||
**Collaborative dialogue, not command-response**: The AI and user work together throughout. The AI brings structured thinking, methodology, and technical knowledge. The user brings domain expertise, context, and judgment. Together they produce something better than either could alone.
|
||||
|
||||
**The user is the expert in their domain**: A nutrition planning workflow doesn't dictate meal plans—it guides users through discovering what works for their lifestyle. An architecture workflow doesn't tell architects what to build—it facilitates systematic decision-making so choices are explicit and consistent.
|
||||
|
||||
**Intent-based facilitation**: Workflows should describe goals and approaches, not scripts. Instead of "Ask: What is your age? Then ask: What is your goal weight?" use "Guide the user through understanding their health profile. Ask 1-2 questions at a time. Think about their responses before asking follow-ups. Probe to understand their actual needs."
|
||||
|
||||
The AI figures out exact wording and question order based on conversation context. This makes interactions feel natural and responsive rather than robotic and interrogative.
|
||||
|
||||
**When to be prescriptive**: Some workflows require exact scripts—medical intake, legal compliance, safety-critical procedures. But these are the exception, not the rule. Default to facilitative intent-based approaches unless compliance or regulation demands otherwise.
|
||||
|
||||
---
|
||||
|
||||
## Why Workflows Matter
|
||||
|
||||
Workflows solve three fundamental problems with AI interactions:
|
||||
|
||||
**Focus**: Each step contains only instructions for that phase. The AI sees one step at a time, preventing it from getting ahead of itself or losing focus.
|
||||
|
||||
**Continuity**: Workflows can span multiple sessions. Stop mid-workflow and return later without losing progress—something free-form prompts can't do.
|
||||
|
||||
**Quality**: Sequential enforcement prevents shortcuts. The AI must complete each step fully before moving on, ensuring thorough, complete outputs instead of rushed, half-baked results.
|
||||
|
||||

|
||||
|
||||
## How Workflows Work
|
||||
|
||||
### The Basic Structure
|
||||
|
||||
Workflows consist of multiple markdown files, each representing one step:
|
||||
|
||||
```
|
||||
my-workflow/
|
||||
├── workflow.md # Entry point and configuration
|
||||
├── steps/ # Step files (steps-c/ for create, steps-e/ for edit, steps-v/ for validate)
|
||||
│ ├── step-01-init.md
|
||||
│ ├── step-02-profile.md
|
||||
│ └── step-N-final.md
|
||||
├── data/ # Reference materials, CSVs, examples
|
||||
└── templates/ # Output document templates
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
The `workflow.md` file is minimal—it contains the workflow name, description, goal, the AI's role, and how to start. Importantly, it does not list all steps or detail what each does. This is progressive disclosure in action.
|
||||
|
||||
### Sequential Execution
|
||||
|
||||
Workflows execute in strict sequence: `step-01 → step-02 → step-03 → ... → step-N`
|
||||
|
||||
The AI cannot skip steps or optimize the sequence. It must complete each step fully before loading the next. This ensures thoroughness and prevents shortcuts that compromise quality.
|
||||
|
||||
### Continuable Workflows
|
||||
|
||||
Some workflows are complex enough that users might need multiple sessions. These "continuable workflows" track which steps are complete in the output document's frontmatter, so users can stop and resume later without losing progress.
|
||||
|
||||
Use continuable workflows when:
|
||||
- The workflow produces large documents
|
||||
- Multiple sessions are likely
|
||||
- Complex decisions benefit from reflection
|
||||
- The workflow has many steps (8+)
|
||||
|
||||
Keep it simple (single-session) when tasks are quick, focused, and can be completed in one sitting.
|
||||
|
||||
### Workflow Chaining
|
||||
|
||||
Workflows can be chained together where outputs become inputs. The BMM module pipeline is a perfect example:
|
||||
|
||||
```
|
||||
brainstorming → research → brief → PRD → UX → architecture → epics → sprint-planning
|
||||
↓
|
||||
implement-story → review → repeat
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
Each workflow checks for required inputs from prior workflows, validates they're complete, and produces output for the next workflow. This creates powerful end-to-end pipelines for complex processes.
|
||||
|
||||
### The Tri-Modal Pattern
|
||||
|
||||
For critical workflows that produce important artifacts, BMad uses a tri-modal structure: Create, Validate, and Edit. Each mode is a separate workflow path that can run independently or flow into the others.
|
||||
|
||||
**Create mode** builds new artifacts from scratch. But here's where it gets interesting: create mode can also function as a conversion tool. Feed it a non-compliant document—something that doesn't follow BMad standards—and it will extract the essential content and rebuild it as a compliant artifact. This means you can bring in existing work and automatically upgrade it to follow proper patterns.
|
||||
|
||||
**Validate mode** runs standalone and checks artifacts against standards. Because it's separate, you can run validation whenever you want—immediately after creation, weeks later when things have changed, or even using a different LLM entirely. It's like having a quality assurance checkpoint that's always available but never forced.
|
||||
|
||||
**Edit mode** modifies existing artifacts while enforcing standards. As you update documents to reflect changing requirements or new understanding, edit mode ensures you don't accidentally drift away from the patterns that make the artifacts useful. It checks compliance as you work and can route back to create mode if it detects something that needs full conversion.
|
||||
|
||||
All BMad planning workflows and the BMB module (will) use this tri-modal pattern. The pristine example is the workflow workflow in BMB—it creates workflow specifications, validates them against standards, and lets you edit them while maintaining compliance. You can study that workflow to see the pattern in action.
|
||||
|
||||
This tri-modal approach gives you the best of both worlds: the creativity and flexibility to build what you need, the quality assurance of validation that can run anytime, and the ability to iterate while staying true to standards that make the artifacts valuable across sessions and team members.
|
||||
|
||||

|
||||
|
||||
## Design Decisions
|
||||
|
||||
Before building a workflow, answer these questions:
|
||||
|
||||
**Module affiliation**: Is this standalone or part of a module? Module-based workflows can access module-specific variables and reference other workflow outputs. Also when part of a module, generally they will be associated to an agent.
|
||||
|
||||
**Continuable or single-session?**: Will users need multiple sessions, or can this be completed in one sitting?
|
||||
|
||||
**Edit/Validate support?**: Do you need Create/Edit/Validate modes (tri-modal structure)? Use tri-modal for complex, critical workflows requiring quality assurance. Use create-only for simple, one-off workflows.
|
||||
|
||||
**Document output?**: Does this produce a persistent file, or perform actions without output?
|
||||
|
||||
**Intent or prescriptive?**: Is this intent-based facilitation (most workflows) or prescriptive compliance (medical, legal, regulated)?
|
||||
|
||||

|
||||
|
||||
## Learning from Examples
|
||||
|
||||
The best way to understand workflows is to study real examples. Look at the official BMad modules:
|
||||
|
||||
- **BMB (Module Builder)**: Workflow and agent creation workflows
|
||||
- **BMM (Business Method Module)**: Complete software development pipeline from brainstorming through sprint planning
|
||||
- **BMGD (Game Development Module)**: Game design briefs, narratives, architecture
|
||||
- **CIS (Creativity, Innovation, Strategy)**: Brainstorming, design thinking, storytelling, innovation strategy
|
||||
|
||||
Study the workflow.md files to understand how each workflow starts. Examine step files to see how instructions are structured. Notice the frontmatter variables, menu handling, and how steps chain together.
|
||||
|
||||
Copy patterns that work. Adapt them to your domain. The structure is consistent across all workflows—the content and steps change, but the architecture stays the same.
|
||||
|
||||
---
|
||||
|
||||
## When to Use Workflows
|
||||
|
||||
Use workflows when:
|
||||
|
||||
- **Tasks are multi-step and complex**: Break down complexity into manageable pieces
|
||||
- **Quality and completeness matter**: Sequential enforcement ensures nothing gets missed
|
||||
- **Repeatability is important**: Get consistent results every time
|
||||
- **Tasks span multiple sessions**: Continuable workflows preserve progress
|
||||
- **You need to chain processes**: Output of one workflow becomes input of another
|
||||
- **Compliance or standards matter**: Enforce required steps and documentation
|
||||
|
||||
Don't use workflows when:
|
||||
|
||||
- **Tasks are simple and one-off**: A single prompt works fine for quick questions
|
||||
- **Flexibility trumps structure**: Free-form conversation is better for exploration
|
||||
|
||||
Modified BMad Workflows
|
||||
|
||||
- **Tasks are truly one-step**
|
||||
|
||||
If there's only one thing to do and it can be explained in under about 300 lines - don't bother with step files. Instead, you can still have
|
||||
a short single file workflow.md file.
|
||||
|
||||
---
|
||||
|
||||
## The Bottom Line
|
||||
|
||||
Workflows transform AI from a tool that gives variable, unpredictable results into a reliable system for complex, multi-step processes. Through progressive disclosure, sequential execution, guided facilitation, and thoughtful design, workflows give you control and repeatability that ad-hoc prompting alone can't match.
|
||||
|
||||
They're not just for software development. You can create workflows for any guided process - meal planning, course design, therapy intake, tax preparation, document processing, creative writing, event planning—any complex task that benefits from structure and thoroughness.
|
||||
|
||||
Start simple. Study examples. Build workflows for your own domain. You'll wonder how you ever got by with just prompts.

|
||||
Quick answers to common questions about brownfield (existing codebase) development in the BMad Method (BMM).
|
||||
|
||||
## Questions
|
||||
|
||||
- [What is brownfield vs greenfield?](#what-is-brownfield-vs-greenfield)
|
||||
- [Do I have to run document-project for brownfield?](#do-i-have-to-run-document-project-for-brownfield)
|
||||
- [What if I forget to run document-project?](#what-if-i-forget-to-run-document-project)
|
||||
- [Can I use Quick Spec Flow for brownfield projects?](#can-i-use-quick-spec-flow-for-brownfield-projects)
|
||||
- [How does workflow-init handle old planning docs?](#how-does-workflow-init-handle-old-planning-docs)
|
||||
- [What if my existing code doesn't follow best practices?](#what-if-my-existing-code-doesnt-follow-best-practices)
|
||||
|
||||
### What is brownfield vs greenfield?
|
||||
|
||||
- **Greenfield** — New project, starting from scratch, clean slate
|
||||
- **Brownfield** — Existing project, working with established codebase and patterns
|
||||
|
||||
### Do I have to run document-project for brownfield?
|
||||
|
||||
Highly recommended, especially if:
|
||||
|
||||
- No existing documentation
|
||||
- Documentation is outdated
|
||||
- AI agents need context about existing code
|
||||
- Level 2-4 complexity
|
||||
|
||||
You can skip it if you have comprehensive, up-to-date documentation including `docs/index.md`.
|
||||
|
||||
### What if I forget to run document-project?
|
||||
|
||||
Workflows will lack context about existing code. You may get:
|
||||
|
||||
- Suggestions that don't match existing patterns
|
||||
- Integration approaches that miss existing APIs
|
||||
- Architecture that conflicts with current structure
|
||||
|
||||
Run document-project and restart planning with proper context.
|
||||
|
||||
### Can I use Quick Spec Flow for brownfield projects?
|
||||
|
||||
Yes! Quick Spec Flow works great for brownfield. It will:
|
||||
|
||||
- Auto-detect your existing stack
|
||||
- Analyze brownfield code patterns
|
||||
- Detect conventions and ask for confirmation
|
||||
- Generate context-rich tech-spec that respects existing code
|
||||
|
||||
Perfect for bug fixes and small features in existing codebases.
|
||||
|
||||
### How does workflow-init handle old planning docs?
|
||||
|
||||
workflow-init asks about YOUR current work first, then uses old artifacts as context:
|
||||
|
||||
1. Shows what it found (old PRD, epics, etc.)
|
||||
2. Asks: "Is this work in progress, previous effort, or proposed work?"
|
||||
3. If previous effort: Asks you to describe your NEW work
|
||||
4. Determines level based on YOUR work, not old artifacts
|
||||
|
||||
This prevents old Level 3 PRDs from forcing Level 3 workflow for a new Level 0 bug fix.
|
||||
|
||||
### What if my existing code doesn't follow best practices?
|
||||
|
||||
Quick Spec Flow detects your conventions and asks: "Should I follow these existing conventions?" You decide:
|
||||
|
||||
- **Yes** → Maintain consistency with current codebase
|
||||
- **No** → Establish new standards (document why in tech-spec)
|
||||
|
||||
BMM respects your choice — it won't force modernization, but it will offer it.

description: Common questions about getting started with the BMad Method
|
||||
---
|
||||
|
||||
Quick answers to common questions about getting started with the BMad Method.
|
||||
|
||||
## Questions
|
||||
|
||||
- [Do I always need to run workflow-init?](#do-i-always-need-to-run-workflow-init)
|
||||
- [Why do I need fresh chats for each workflow?](#why-do-i-need-fresh-chats-for-each-workflow)
|
||||
- [Can I skip workflow-status and just start working?](#can-i-skip-workflow-status-and-just-start-working)
|
||||
- [What's the minimum I need to get started?](#whats-the-minimum-i-need-to-get-started)
|
||||
- [How do I know if I'm in Phase 1, 2, 3, or 4?](#how-do-i-know-if-im-in-phase-1-2-3-or-4)
|
||||
|
||||
### Do I always need to run workflow-init?
|
||||
|
||||
No, once you learn the flow you can go directly to workflows. However, workflow-init is helpful because it:
|
||||
|
||||
- Determines your project's appropriate level automatically
|
||||
- Creates the tracking status file
|
||||
- Routes you to the correct starting workflow
|
||||
|
||||
For experienced users: use the [Quick Start Guide](/docs/tutorials/getting-started/getting-started-bmadv6.md) to go directly to the right agent/workflow.
|
||||
|
||||
### Why do I need fresh chats for each workflow?
|
||||
|
||||
Context-intensive workflows (like brainstorming, PRD creation, architecture design) can cause AI hallucinations if run in sequence within the same chat. Starting fresh ensures the agent has maximum context capacity for each workflow. This is particularly important for:
|
||||
|
||||
- Planning workflows (PRD, architecture)
|
||||
- Analysis workflows (brainstorming, research)
|
||||
- Complex story implementation
|
||||
|
||||
Quick workflows like status checks can reuse chats safely.
|
||||
|
||||
### Can I skip workflow-status and just start working?
|
||||
|
||||
Yes, if you already know your project level and which workflow comes next. workflow-status is mainly useful for:
|
||||
|
||||
- New projects (guides initial setup)
|
||||
- When you're unsure what to do next
|
||||
- After breaks in work (reminds you where you left off)
|
||||
- Checking overall progress
|
||||
|
||||
### What's the minimum I need to get started?
|
||||
|
||||
For the fastest path:
|
||||
|
||||
1. Install BMad Method: `npx bmad-method@alpha install`
|
||||
2. For small changes: Load PM agent → run tech-spec → implement
|
||||
3. For larger projects: Load PM agent → run prd → architect → implement
|
||||
|
||||
### How do I know if I'm in Phase 1, 2, 3, or 4?
|
||||
|
||||
Check your `bmm-workflow-status.md` file (created by workflow-init). It shows your current phase and progress. If you don't have this file, you can also tell by what you're working on:
|
||||
|
||||
- **Phase 1** — Brainstorming, research, product brief (optional)
|
||||
- **Phase 2** — Creating either a PRD or tech-spec (always required)
|
||||
- **Phase 3** — Architecture design (Level 2-4 only)
|
||||
- **Phase 4** — Actually writing code, implementing stories
|

|

Quick answers to common questions about implementation in the BMad Method.
|
||||
|
||||
## Questions
|
||||
|
||||
- [Does create-story include implementation context?](#does-create-story-include-implementation-context)
|
||||
- [How do I mark a story as done?](#how-do-i-mark-a-story-as-done)
|
||||
- [Can I work on multiple stories at once?](#can-i-work-on-multiple-stories-at-once)
|
||||
- [What if my story takes longer than estimated?](#what-if-my-story-takes-longer-than-estimated)
|
||||
- [When should I run retrospective?](#when-should-i-run-retrospective)
|
||||
|
||||
### Does create-story include implementation context?
|
||||
|
||||
Yes! The create-story workflow generates story files that include implementation-specific guidance, references existing patterns from your documentation, and provides technical context. The workflow loads your architecture, PRD, and existing project documentation to create comprehensive stories. For Quick Flow projects using tech-spec, the tech-spec itself is already comprehensive, so stories can be simpler.
|
||||
|
||||
### How do I mark a story as done?
|
||||
|
||||
After dev-story completes and code-review passes:
|
||||
|
||||
1. Open `sprint-status.yaml` (created by sprint-planning)
|
||||
2. Change the story status from `review` to `done`
|
||||
3. Save the file
|
||||
|
||||
### Can I work on multiple stories at once?
|
||||
|
||||
Yes, if you have capacity! Stories within different epics can be worked in parallel. However, stories within the same epic are usually sequential because they build on each other.
|
||||
|
||||
### What if my story takes longer than estimated?
|
||||
|
||||
That's normal! Stories are estimates. If implementation reveals more complexity:
|
||||
|
||||
1. Continue working until DoD is met
|
||||
2. Consider if story should be split
|
||||
3. Document learnings in retrospective
|
||||
4. Adjust future estimates based on this learning
|
||||
|
||||
### When should I run retrospective?
|
||||
|
||||
After completing all stories in an epic (when epic is done). Retrospectives capture:
|
||||
|
||||
- What went well
|
||||
- What could improve
|
||||
- Technical insights
|
||||
- Learnings for future epics
|
||||
|
||||
Don't wait until project end — run after each epic for continuous improvement.

description: Common questions about choosing the right level for your project
|
||||
---
|
||||
|
||||
Quick answers to common questions about choosing the right level for your BMad Method project.
|
||||
|
||||
## Questions
|
||||
|
||||
- [How do I know which level my project is?](#how-do-i-know-which-level-my-project-is)
|
||||
- [Can I change levels mid-project?](#can-i-change-levels-mid-project)

|
||||
- [What's the difference between Level 1 and Level 2?](#whats-the-difference-between-level-1-and-level-2)
|
||||
|
||||
### How do I know which level my project is?
|
||||
|
||||
Use workflow-init for automatic detection, or self-assess using these keywords:
|
||||
|
||||
- **Level 0** — "fix", "bug", "typo", "small change", "patch" → 1 story
|
||||
- **Level 1** — "simple", "basic", "small feature", "add" → 1-10 stories
|
||||
- **Level 2** — "dashboard", "several features", "admin panel" → 5-15 stories
|
||||
- **Level 3** — "platform", "integration", "complex", "system" → 12-40 stories
|
||||
- **Level 4** — "enterprise", "multi-tenant", "multiple products" → 40+ stories
|
||||
|
||||
When in doubt, start smaller. You can always run create-prd later if needed.
|
||||
|
||||
### Can I change levels mid-project?
|
||||
|
||||
Yes! If you started at Level 1 but realize it's Level 2, you can run create-prd to add proper planning docs. The system is flexible — your initial level choice isn't permanent.
|
||||
|
||||
### What if workflow-init suggests the wrong level?
|
||||
|
||||
You can override it! workflow-init suggests a level but always asks for confirmation. If you disagree, just say so and choose the level you think is appropriate. Trust your judgment.
|
||||
|
||||
### Do I always need architecture for Level 2?
|
||||
|
||||
No, architecture is **optional** for Level 2. Only create architecture if you need system-level design. Many Level 2 projects work fine with just PRD created during planning.
|
||||
|
||||
### What's the difference between Level 1 and Level 2?
|
||||
|
||||
- **Level 1** — 1-10 stories, uses tech-spec (simpler, faster), no architecture
|
||||
- **Level 2** — 5-15 stories, uses PRD (product-focused), optional architecture
|
||||
|
||||
The overlap (5-10 stories) is intentional. Choose based on:
|
||||
|
||||
- Need product-level planning? → Level 2
|
||||
- Just need technical plan? → Level 1
|
||||
- Multiple epics? → Level 2
|
||||
- Single epic? → Level 1

---
|
||||
|
||||
Quick answers to common questions about planning documents in the BMad Method.
|
||||
|
||||
## Questions
|
||||
|
||||
- [Why no tech-spec at Level 2+?](#why-no-tech-spec-at-level-2)
|
||||
- [Do I need a PRD for a bug fix?](#do-i-need-a-prd-for-a-bug-fix)
|
||||
- [Can I skip the product brief?](#can-i-skip-the-product-brief)
|
||||
|
||||
### Why no tech-spec at Level 2+?
|
||||
|
||||
Level 2+ projects need product-level planning (PRD) and system-level design (Architecture), which tech-spec doesn't provide. Tech-spec is too narrow for coordinating multiple features. Instead, Level 2-4 uses:
|
||||
|
||||
- PRD (product vision, functional requirements, non-functional requirements)
|
||||
- Architecture (system design)
|
||||
- Epics+Stories (created AFTER architecture is complete)
|
||||
|
||||
### Do I need a PRD for a bug fix?
|
||||
|
||||
No! Bug fixes are typically Level 0 (single atomic change). Use Quick Spec Flow:
|
||||
|
||||
- Load PM agent
|
||||
- Run tech-spec workflow
|
||||
- Implement immediately
|
||||
|
||||
PRDs are for Level 2-4 projects with multiple features requiring product-level coordination.
|
||||
|
||||
### Can I skip the product brief?
|
||||
|
||||
Yes, product brief is always optional. It's most valuable for:
|
||||
|
||||
- Level 3-4 projects needing strategic direction
|
||||
- Projects with stakeholders requiring alignment
|
||||
- Novel products needing market research
|
||||
- When you want to explore solution space before committing

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

||||

|
||||
|
||||
Quick answers to common questions about BMad Method workflows and phases.
|
||||
|
||||
## Questions
|
||||
|
||||
- [What's the difference between workflow-status and workflow-init?](#whats-the-difference-between-workflow-status-and-workflow-init)
|
||||
- [Can I skip Phase 1 (Analysis)?](#can-i-skip-phase-1-analysis)
|
||||
- [When is Phase 3 (Architecture) required?](#when-is-phase-3-architecture-required)
|
||||
- [What happens if I skip a recommended workflow?](#what-happens-if-i-skip-a-recommended-workflow)
|
||||
- [How do I know when Phase 3 is complete?](#how-do-i-know-when-phase-3-is-complete)
|
||||
- [Can I run workflows in parallel?](#can-i-run-workflows-in-parallel)
|
||||
|
||||
### What's the difference between workflow-status and workflow-init?
|
||||
|
||||
- **workflow-status** — Checks existing status and tells you what's next (use when continuing work)
|
||||
- **workflow-init** — Creates new status file and sets up project (use when starting new project)
|
||||
|
||||
If status file exists, use workflow-status. If not, use workflow-init.
|
||||
|
||||
### Can I skip Phase 1 (Analysis)?
|
||||
|
||||
Yes! Phase 1 is optional for all levels, though recommended for complex projects. Skip if:
|
||||
|
||||
- Requirements are clear
|
||||
- No research needed
|
||||
- Time-sensitive work
|
||||
- Small changes (Level 0-1)
|
||||
|
||||
### When is Phase 3 (Architecture) required?
|
||||
|
||||
- **Level 0-1** — Never (skip entirely)
|
||||
- **Level 2** — Optional (only if system design needed)
|
||||
- **Level 3-4** — Required (comprehensive architecture mandatory)
|
||||
|
||||
### What happens if I skip a recommended workflow?
|
||||
|
||||
Nothing breaks! Workflows are guidance, not enforcement. However, skipping recommended workflows (like architecture for Level 3) may cause:
|
||||
|
||||
- Integration issues during implementation
|
||||
- Rework due to poor planning
|
||||
- Conflicting design decisions
|
||||
- Longer development time overall
|
||||
|
||||
### How do I know when Phase 3 is complete?
|
||||
|
||||
For Level 3-4, run the implementation-readiness workflow. It validates PRD + Architecture + Epics + UX (optional) are aligned before implementation. Pass the gate check = ready for Phase 4.
|
||||
|
||||
### Can I run workflows in parallel?
|
||||
|
||||
Most workflows must be sequential within a phase:
|
||||
|
||||
- **Phase 1** — brainstorm → research → product-brief (optional order)
|
||||
- **Phase 2** — PRD must complete before moving forward
|
||||
- **Phase 3** — architecture → epics+stories → implementation-readiness (sequential)
|
||||
- **Phase 4** — Stories within an epic should generally be sequential, but stories in different epics can be parallel if you have capacity
|
||||

title: "Advanced Elicitation"
|
||||
---
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
**Push the LLM to rethink its work through 50+ reasoning methods—essentially, LLM brainstorming.**
|
||||
|
||||
Advanced Elicitation is the inverse of Brainstorming. Instead of pulling ideas out of you, the LLM applies sophisticated reasoning techniques to re-examine and enhance content it has just generated. It's the LLM brainstorming with itself to find better approaches, uncover hidden issues, and discover improvements it missed on the first pass.
|
||||
|
||||
---
|
||||
|
||||
## When to Use It
|
||||
|
||||
- After a workflow generates a section of content and you want to explore alternatives
|
||||
- When the LLM's initial output seems adequate but you suspect there's more depth available
|
||||
- For high-stakes content where multiple perspectives would strengthen the result
|
||||
- To stress-test assumptions, explore edge cases, or find weaknesses in generated plans
|
||||
- When you want the LLM to "think again" but with structured reasoning methods
|
||||
|
||||
---
|
||||
|
||||
## How It Works
|
||||
|
||||
### 1. Context Analysis
|
||||
The LLM analyzes the current content, understanding its type, complexity, stakeholder needs, risk level, and creative potential.
|
||||
|
||||
### 2. Smart Method Selection
|
||||
Based on context, 5 methods are intelligently selected from a library of 50+ techniques and presented to you:
|
||||
|
||||
| Option | Description |
|
||||
| ----------------- | ---------------------------------------- |
|
||||
| **1-5** | Apply the selected method to the content |
|
||||
| **[r] Reshuffle** | Get 5 new methods selected randomly |
|
||||
| **[a] List All** | Browse the complete method library |
|
||||
| **[x] Proceed** | Continue with enhanced content |
|
||||
|
||||
### 3. Method Execution & Iteration
|
||||
- The selected method is applied to the current content
|
||||
- Improvements are shown for your review
|
||||
- You choose whether to apply changes or discard them
|
||||
- The menu re-appears for additional elicitations
|
||||
- Each method builds on previous enhancements
|
||||
|
||||
### 4. Party Mode Integration (Optional)
|
||||
If Party Mode is active, BMad agents participate randomly in the elicitation process, adding their unique perspectives to the methods.

|
||||
## Workflow Integration
|
||||
|
||||
Advanced Elicitation is a core workflow designed to be invoked by other workflows during content generation:
|
||||
|
||||
| Parameter | Description |
|
||||
| ---------------------- | --------------------------------------------------------- |
|
||||
| **Content to enhance** | The current section content that was just generated |
|
||||
| **Context type** | The kind of content being created (spec, code, doc, etc.) |
|
||||
| **Enhancement goals** | What the calling workflow wants to improve |
|
||||
|
||||
### Integration Flow
|
||||
|
||||
When called from a workflow:
|
||||
1. Receives the current section content that was just generated
|
||||
2. Applies elicitation methods iteratively to enhance that content
|
||||
3. Returns the enhanced version when user selects 'x' to proceed
|
||||
4. The enhanced content replaces the original section in the output document
|
||||
|
||||
### Example
|
||||
|
||||
A specification generation workflow could invoke Advanced Elicitation after producing each major section (requirements, architecture, implementation plan). The workflow would pass the generated section, and Advanced Elicitation would offer methods like "Stakeholder Round Table" to gather diverse perspectives on requirements, or "Red Team vs Blue Team" to stress-test the architecture for vulnerabilities.

## Workflow Integration
|
||||
|
||||
Brainstorming is a core workflow designed to be invoked and configured by other modules. When called from another workflow, it accepts contextual parameters:
|
||||
|
||||
| Parameter | Description |
|
||||
|-----------|-------------|
|
||||
| **Topic focus** | What the brainstorming should help discover or solve |
|
||||
| **Guardrails** | Constraints, boundaries, or must-avoid areas |
|
||||
| **Output goals** | What the final output needs to accomplish for the calling workflow |
|
||||
| **Context files** | Project-specific guidance to inform technique selection |
|
||||
|
||||
### Example
|
||||
|
||||
When creating a new module in the BMad Builder workflow, Brainstorming can be invoked with guardrails around the module's purpose and a goal to discover key features, user needs, or architectural considerations. The session becomes focused on producing exactly what the module creation workflow needs.
