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 Reference](./quick-start.md#quick-reference-agent-document-mapping) to go directly to the right agent/workflow. + +### Q: Why do I need fresh chats for each workflow? + +**A:** 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. + +### Q: Can I skip workflow-status and just start working? + +**A:** 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 + +### Q: What's the minimum I need to get started? + +**A:** For the fastest path: + +1. Install BMad Method: `npx bmad-method@alpha install` +2. For small changes: Load PM agent โ†’ run tech-spec โ†’ implement +3. For larger projects: Load PM agent โ†’ run prd โ†’ architect โ†’ implement + +### Q: How do I know if I'm in Phase 1, 2, 3, or 4? + +**A:** 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 + +--- + +## Choosing the Right Level + +### Q: How do I know which level my project is? + +**A:** Use workflow-init for automatic detection, or self-assess using these keywords: + +- **Level 0:** "fix", "bug", "typo", "small change", "patch" โ†’ 1 story +- **Level 1:** "simple", "basic", "small feature", "add" โ†’ 2-10 stories +- **Level 2:** "dashboard", "several features", "admin panel" โ†’ 5-15 stories +- **Level 3:** "platform", "integration", "complex", "system" โ†’ 12-40 stories +- **Level 4:** "enterprise", "multi-tenant", "multiple products" โ†’ 40+ stories + +When in doubt, start smaller. You can always run create-prd later if needed. + +### Q: Can I change levels mid-project? + +**A:** 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. + +### Q: What if workflow-init suggests the wrong level? + +**A:** 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. + +### Q: Do I always need architecture for Level 2? + +**A:** 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 + epic-tech-context created during implementation. + +### Q: What's the difference between Level 1 and Level 2? + +**A:** + +- **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? โ†’ Level 2 +- Just need technical plan? โ†’ Level 1 +- Multiple epics? โ†’ Level 2 +- Single epic? โ†’ Level 1 + +--- + +## Workflows and Phases + +### Q: What's the difference between workflow-status and workflow-init? + +**A:** + +- **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. + +### Q: Can I skip Phase 1 (Analysis)? + +**A:** 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) + +### Q: When is Phase 3 (Architecture) required? + +**A:** + +- **Level 0-1:** Never (skip entirely) +- **Level 2:** Optional (only if system design needed) +- **Level 3-4:** Required (comprehensive architecture mandatory) + +### Q: What happens if I skip a recommended workflow? + +**A:** 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 + +### Q: How do I know when Phase 3 is complete and I can start Phase 4? + +**A:** For Level 3-4, run the solutioning-gate-check workflow. It validates that PRD, architecture, and UX (if applicable) are cohesive before implementation. Pass the gate check = ready for Phase 4. + +### Q: Can I run workflows in parallel or do they have to be sequential? + +**A:** Most workflows must be sequential within a phase: + +- Phase 1: brainstorm โ†’ research โ†’ product-brief (optional order) +- Phase 2: PRD must complete before moving forward +- Phase 3: architecture โ†’ validate โ†’ gate-check (sequential) +- Phase 4: Stories within an epic should generally be sequential, but stories in different epics can be parallel if you have capacity + +--- + +## Planning Documents + +### Q: What's the difference between tech-spec and epic-tech-context? + +**A:** + +- **Tech-spec (Level 0-1):** Created upfront in Planning Phase, serves as primary/only planning document, a combination of enough technical and planning information to drive a single or multiple files +- **Epic-tech-context (Level 2-4):** Created during Implementation Phase per epic, supplements PRD + Architecture + +Think of it as: tech-spec is for small projects (replaces PRD and architecture), epic-tech-context is for large projects (supplements PRD). + +### Q: Why no tech-spec at Level 2+? + +**A:** 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, requirements, epics) +- Architecture (system design) +- Epic-tech-context (detailed implementation per epic, created just-in-time) + +### Q: When do I create epic-tech-context? + +**A:** In Phase 4, right before implementing each epic. Don't create all epic-tech-context upfront - that's over-planning. Create them just-in-time using the epic-tech-context workflow as you're about to start working on that epic. + +**Why just-in-time?** You'll learn from earlier epics, and those learnings improve later epic-tech-context. + +### Q: Do I need a PRD for a bug fix? + +**A:** 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. + +### Q: Can I skip the product brief? + +**A:** 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 + +--- + +## Implementation + +### Q: Do I need story-context for every story? + +**A:** Technically no, but it's recommended. story-context provides implementation-specific guidance, references existing patterns, and injects expertise. Skip it only if: + +- Very simple story (self-explanatory) +- You're already expert in the area +- Time is extremely limited + +For Level 0-1 using tech-spec, story-context is less critical because tech-spec is already comprehensive. + +### Q: What if I don't create epic-tech-context before drafting stories? + +**A:** You can proceed without it, but you'll miss: + +- Epic-level technical direction +- Architecture guidance for this epic +- Integration strategy with other epics +- Common patterns to follow across stories + +epic-tech-context helps ensure stories within an epic are cohesive. + +### Q: How do I mark a story as done? + +**A:** You have two options: + +**Option 1: Use story-done workflow (Recommended)** + +1. Load SM agent +2. Run `story-done` workflow +3. Workflow automatically updates `sprint-status.yaml` (created by sprint-planning at Phase 4 start) +4. Moves story from current status โ†’ `DONE` +5. Advances the story queue + +**Option 2: Manual update** + +1. After dev-story completes and code-review passes +2. Open `sprint-status.yaml` (created by sprint-planning) +3. Change the story status from `review` to `done` +4. Save the file + +The story-done workflow is faster and ensures proper status file updates. + +### Q: Can I work on multiple stories at once? + +**A:** 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. + +### Q: What if my story takes longer than estimated? + +**A:** 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 + +### Q: When should I run retrospective? + +**A:** After completing all stories in an epic (when epic is done). Retrospectives capture: + +- What went well +- What could improve +- Technical insights +- Input for next epic-tech-context + +Don't wait until project end - run after each epic for continuous improvement. + +--- + +## Brownfield Development + +### Q: What is brownfield vs greenfield? + +**A:** + +- **Greenfield:** New project, starting from scratch, clean slate +- **Brownfield:** Existing project, working with established codebase and patterns + +### Q: Do I have to run document-project for brownfield? + +**A:** 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`. + +### Q: What if I forget to run document-project on brownfield? + +**A:** 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. + +### Q: Can I use Quick Spec Flow for brownfield projects? + +**A:** 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. + +### Q: How does workflow-init handle brownfield with old planning docs? + +**A:** 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 new Level 0 bug fix. + +### Q: What if my existing code doesn't follow best practices? + +**A:** Quick Spec Flow detects your conventions and asks: "Should I follow these existing conventions?" You decide: + +- **Yes** โ†’ Maintain consistency with current codebase +- **No** โ†’ Establish new standards (document why in tech-spec) + +BMM respects your choice - it won't force modernization, but it will offer it. + +--- + +## Tools and Technical + +### Q: Why are my Mermaid diagrams not rendering? + +**A:** 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. + +### Q: Can I use BMM with GitHub Copilot / Cursor / other AI tools? + +**A:** Yes! BMM is complementary. BMM handles: + +- Project planning and structure +- Workflow orchestration +- Agent Personas and expertise +- Documentation generation +- Quality gates + +Your AI coding assistant handles: + +- Line-by-line code completion +- Quick refactoring +- Test generation + +Use them together for best results. + +### Q: What IDEs/tools support BMM? + +**A:** BMM requires tools with **agent mode** and access to **high-quality LLM models** that can load and follow complex workflows, then properly implement code changes. + +**Recommended Tools:** + +- **Claude Code** โญ **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. + +See [IDE Setup Guides](https://github.com/bmad-code-org/BMAD-METHOD/tree/main/docs/ide-info) for configuration specifics. + +### Q: Can I customize agents? + +**A:** Yes! Agents are installed as markdown files with XML-style content (optimized for LLMs, readable by any model). Create customization files in `.bmad/_cfg/agents/[agent-name].customize.yaml` to override default behaviors while keeping core functionality intact. See agent documentation for customization options. + +**Note:** While source agents in this repo are YAML, they install as `.md` files with XML-style tags - a format any LLM can read and follow. + +### Q: What happens to my planning docs after implementation? + +**A:** Keep them! They serve as: + +- Historical record of decisions +- Onboarding material for new team members +- Reference for future enhancements +- Audit trail for compliance + +For enterprise projects (Level 4), consider archiving completed planning artifacts to keep workspace clean. + +### Q: Can I use BMM for non-software projects? + +**A:** BMM is optimized for software development, but the methodology principles (scale-adaptive planning, just-in-time design, context injection) can apply to other complex project types. You'd need to adapt workflows and agents for your domain. + +--- + +## Advanced Questions + +### Q: What if my project grows from Level 1 to Level 3? + +**A:** Totally fine! When you realize scope has grown: + +1. Run create-prd to add product-level planning +2. Run create-architecture for system design +3. Use existing tech-spec as input for PRD +4. Continue with updated level + +The system is flexible - growth is expected. + +### Q: Can I mix greenfield and brownfield approaches? + +**A:** Yes! Common scenario: adding new greenfield feature to brownfield codebase. Approach: + +1. Run document-project for brownfield context +2. Use greenfield workflows for new feature planning +3. Explicitly document integration points between new and existing +4. Test integration thoroughly + +### Q: How do I handle urgent hotfixes during a sprint? + +**A:** Use correct-course workflow or just: + +1. Save your current work state +2. Load PM agent โ†’ quick tech-spec for hotfix +3. Implement hotfix (Level 0 flow) +4. Deploy hotfix +5. Return to original sprint work + +Level 0 Quick Spec Flow is perfect for urgent fixes. + +### Q: What if I disagree with the workflow's recommendations? + +**A:** Workflows are guidance, not enforcement. If a workflow recommends something that doesn't make sense for your context: + +- Explain your reasoning to the agent +- Ask for alternative approaches +- Skip the recommendation if you're confident +- Document why you deviated (for future reference) + +Trust your expertise - BMM supports your decisions. + +### Q: Can multiple developers work on the same BMM project? + +**A:** Yes! But the paradigm is fundamentally different from traditional agile teams. + +**Key Difference:** + +- **Traditional:** Multiple devs work on stories within one epic (months) +- **Agentic:** Each dev owns complete epics (days) + +**In traditional agile:** A team of 5 devs might spend 2-3 months on a single epic, with each dev owning different stories. + +**With BMM + AI agents:** A single dev can complete an entire epic in 1-3 days. What used to take months now takes days. + +**Team Work Distribution:** + +- **Recommended:** Split work by **epic** (not story) +- Each developer owns complete epics end-to-end +- Parallel work happens at epic level +- Minimal coordination needed + +**For full-stack apps:** + +- Frontend and backend can be separate epics (unusual in traditional agile) +- Frontend dev owns all frontend epics +- Backend dev owns all backend epics +- Works because delivery is so fast + +**Enterprise Considerations:** + +- Use **git submodules** for BMM installation (not .gitignore) +- Allows personal configurations without polluting main repo +- Teams may use different AI tools (Claude Code, Cursor, etc.) +- Developers may follow different methods or create custom agents/workflows + +**Quick Tips:** + +- Share `sprint-status.yaml` (single source of truth) +- Assign entire epics to developers (not individual stories) +- Coordinate at epic boundaries, not story level +- Use git submodules for BMM in enterprise settings + +**For comprehensive coverage of enterprise team collaboration, work distribution strategies, git submodule setup, and velocity expectations, see:** + +๐Ÿ‘‰ **[Enterprise Agentic Development Guide](./enterprise-agentic-development.md)** + +### Q: What is party mode and when should I use it? + +**A:** Party mode is a unique multi-agent collaboration feature where ALL your installed agents (19+ from BMM, CIS, BMB, custom modules) discuss your challenges together in real-time. + +**How it works:** + +1.

Agents have defined capabilities, communication styles, and workflow access. + +### Workflow + +A multi-step guided process that orchestrates AI agent activities to produce specific deliverables. Workflows are interactive and adapt to user context. + +--- + +## Scale and Complexity + +### Quick Flow Track + +Fast implementation track using tech-spec planning only. Best for bug fixes, small features, and changes with clear scope. Typical range: 1-15 stories. No architecture phase needed. Examples: bug fixes, OAuth login, search features. + +### BMad Method Track + +Full product planning track using PRD + Architecture + UX. Best for products, platforms, and complex features requiring system design. Typical range: 10-50+ stories. Examples: admin dashboards, e-commerce platforms, SaaS products. + +### Enterprise Method Track + +Extended enterprise planning track adding Security Architecture, DevOps Strategy, and Test Strategy to BMad Method. Best for enterprise requirements, compliance needs, and multi-tenant systems. Typical range: 30+ stories. Examples: multi-tenant platforms, compliance-driven systems, mission-critical applications. + +### Planning Track + +The methodology path (Quick Flow, BMad Method, or Enterprise Method) chosen for a project based on planning needs, complexity, and requirements rather than story count alone. + +**Note:** Story counts are guidance, not definitions. Tracks are determined by what planning the project needs, not story math. + +--- + +## Planning Documents + +### Tech-Spec (Technical Specification) + +**Quick Flow track only.** Comprehensive technical plan created upfront that serves as the primary planning document for small changes or features. Contains problem statement, solution approach, file-level changes, stack detection (brownfield), testing strategy, and developer resources. + +### Epic-Tech-Context (Epic Technical Context) + +**BMad Method/Enterprise tracks only.** Detailed technical planning document created during implementation (just-in-time) for each epic. Supplements PRD + Architecture with epic-specific implementation details, code-level design decisions, and integration points. + +**Key Difference:** Tech-spec (Quick Flow) is created upfront and is the only planning doc. Epic-tech-context (BMad Method/Enterprise) is created per epic during implementation and supplements PRD + Architecture. + +### PRD (Product Requirements Document) + +**BMad Method/Enterprise tracks.** Product-level planning document containing vision, goals, feature requirements, epic breakdown, success criteria, and UX considerations. Replaces tech-spec for larger projects that need product planning. + +### Architecture Document + +**BMad Method/Enterprise tracks.** System-wide design document defining structure, components, interactions, data models, integration patterns, security, performance, and deployment. + +**Scale-Adaptive:** Architecture complexity scales with track - BMad Method is lightweight to moderate, Enterprise Method is comprehensive with security/devops/test strategies. + +### Epics + +High-level feature groupings that contain multiple related stories. Typically span 5-15 stories each and represent cohesive functionality (e.g., "User Authentication Epic"). + +### Product Brief + +Optional strategic planning document created in Phase 1 (Analysis) that captures product vision, market context, user needs, and high-level requirements before detailed planning. + +### GDD (Game Design Document) + +Game development equivalent of PRD, created by Game Designer agent for game projects. + +--- + +## Workflow and Phases + +### Phase 0: Documentation (Prerequisite) + +**Conditional phase for brownfield projects.** Creates comprehensive codebase documentation before planning. Only required if existing documentation is insufficient for AI agents. + +### Phase 1: Analysis (Optional) + +Discovery and research phase including brainstorming, research workflows, and product brief creation. Optional for Quick Flow, recommended for BMad Method, required for Enterprise Method. + +### Phase 2: Planning (Required) + +**Always required.** Creates formal requirements and work breakdown. Routes to tech-spec (Quick Flow) or PRD (BMad Method/Enterprise) based on selected track. + +### Phase 3: Solutioning (Track-Dependent) + +Architecture design phase. Required for BMad Method and Enterprise Method tracks. Includes architecture creation, validation, and gate checks. + +### Phase 4: Implementation (Required) + +Sprint-based development through story-by-story iteration. Uses sprint-planning, epic-tech-context, create-story, story-context, dev-story, code-review, and retrospective workflows. + +### Quick Spec Flow + +Fast-track workflow system for Quick Flow track projects that goes straight from idea to tech-spec to implementation, bypassing heavy planning. Designed for bug fixes, small features, and rapid prototyping. + +### Just-In-Time Design + +Pattern where epic-tech-context is created during implementation (Phase 4) right before working on each epic, rather than all upfront. Enables learning and adaptation. + +### Context Injection + +Dynamic technical guidance generated for each story via epic-tech-context and story-context workflows, providing exact expertise when needed without upfront over-planning. + +--- + +## Agents and Roles + +### PM (Product Manager) + +Agent responsible for creating PRDs, tech-specs, and managing product requirements. Primary agent for Phase 2 planning. + +### Analyst (Business Analyst) + +Agent that initializes workflows, conducts research, creates product briefs, and tracks progress. Often the entry point for new projects. + +### Architect + +Agent that designs system architecture, creates architecture documents, performs technical reviews, and validates designs. Primary agent for Phase 3 solutioning. + +### SM (Scrum Master) + +Agent that manages sprints, creates stories, generates contexts, and coordinates implementation. Primary orchestrator for Phase 4 implementation. + +### DEV (Developer) + +Agent that implements stories, writes code, runs tests, and performs code reviews. Primary implementer in Phase 4. + +### TEA (Test Architect) + +Agent responsible for test strategy, quality gates, NFR assessment, and comprehensive quality assurance. Integrates throughout all phases. + +### Technical Writer + +Agent specialized in creating and maintaining high-quality technical documentation. Expert in documentation standards, information architecture, and professional technical writing. The agent's internal name is "paige" but is presented as "Technical Writer" to users. + +### UX Designer + +Agent that creates UX design documents, interaction patterns, and visual specifications for UI-heavy projects. + +### Game Designer + +Specialized agent for game development projects. Creates game design documents (GDD) and game-specific workflows. + +### BMad Master + +Meta-level orchestrator agent from BMad Core. Facilitates party mode, lists available tasks and workflows, and provides high-level guidance across all modules. + +### Party Mode + +Multi-agent collaboration feature where all installed agents (19+ from BMM, CIS, BMB, custom modules) discuss challenges together in real-time. BMad Master orchestrates, selecting 2-3 relevant agents per message for natural cross-talk and debate. Best for strategic decisions, creative brainstorming, cross-functional alignment, and complex problem-solving. See [Party Mode Guide](./party-mode.md). + +--- + +## Status and Tracking + +### bmm-workflow-status.yaml + +**Phases 1-3.** Tracking file that shows current phase, completed workflows, progress, and next recommended actions. Created by workflow-init, updated automatically. + +### sprint-status.yaml + +**Phase 4 only.** Single source of truth for implementation tracking. Contains all epics, stories, and retrospectives with current status for each.

Freedom to establish patterns, choose stack, and design from clean slate. + +### Brownfield + +Existing project with established codebase, patterns, and constraints. Requires understanding existing architecture, respecting established conventions, and planning integration with current systems. + +**Critical:** Brownfield projects should run document-project workflow BEFORE planning to ensure AI agents have adequate context about existing code. + +### document-project Workflow + +**Brownfield prerequisite.** Analyzes and documents existing codebase, creating comprehensive documentation including project overview, architecture analysis, source tree, API contracts, and data models. Three scan levels: quick, deep, exhaustive. + +--- + +## Implementation Terms + +### Story + +Single unit of implementable work with clear acceptance criteria, typically 2-8 hours of development effort. Stories are grouped into epics and tracked in sprint-status.yaml. + +### Story File + +Markdown file containing story details: description, acceptance criteria, technical notes, dependencies, implementation guidance, and testing requirements. + +### Story Context + +Technical guidance document created via story-context workflow that provides implementation-specific context, references existing patterns, suggests approaches, and injects expertise for the specific story. + +### Epic Context + +Technical planning document created via epic-tech-context workflow before drafting stories within an epic. Provides epic-level technical direction, architecture notes, and implementation strategy. + +### Sprint Planning + +Workflow that initializes Phase 4 implementation by creating sprint-status.yaml, extracting all epics/stories from planning docs, and setting up tracking infrastructure. + +### Gate Check + +Validation workflow (solutioning-gate-check) run before Phase 4 to ensure PRD, architecture, and UX documents are cohesive with no gaps or contradictions. Required for BMad Method and Enterprise Method tracks. + +### DoD (Definition of Done) + +Criteria that must be met before marking a story as done. Typically includes: implementation complete, tests written and passing, code reviewed, documentation updated, and acceptance criteria validated. + +### Shard / Sharding + +**For runtime LLM optimization only (NOT human docs).** Splitting large planning documents (PRD, epics, architecture) into smaller section-based files to improve workflow efficiency. Phase 1-3 workflows load entire sharded documents transparently. Phase 4 workflows selectively load only needed sections for massive token savings. + +--- + +## Additional Terms + +### Workflow Status + +Universal entry point workflow that checks for existing status file, displays current phase/progress, and recommends next action based on project state. + +### Workflow Init + +Initialization workflow that creates bmm-workflow-status.yaml, detects greenfield vs brownfield, determines planning track, and sets up appropriate workflow path. + +### Track Selection + +Automatic analysis by workflow-init that uses keyword analysis, complexity indicators, and project requirements to suggest appropriate track (Quick Flow, BMad Method, or Enterprise Method). User can override suggested track. + +### Correct Course + +Workflow run during Phase 4 when significant changes or issues arise. Analyzes impact, proposes solutions, and routes to appropriate remediation workflows. + +### Migration Strategy + +Plan for handling changes to existing data, schemas, APIs, or patterns during brownfield development. Critical for ensuring backward compatibility and smooth rollout. + +### Feature Flags + +Implementation technique for brownfield projects that allows gradual rollout of new functionality, easy rollback, and A/B testing. Recommended for BMad Method and Enterprise brownfield changes. + +### Integration Points + +Specific locations where new code connects with existing systems. Must be documented explicitly in brownfield tech-specs and architectures. + +### Convention Detection + +Quick Spec Flow feature that automatically detects existing code style, naming conventions, patterns, and frameworks from brownfield codebases, then asks user to confirm before proceeding. + +--- + +## Related Documentation + +- [Quick Start Guide](./quick-start.md) - Learn BMM basics +- [Scale Adaptive System](./scale-adaptive-system.md) - Deep dive on tracks and complexity +- [Brownfield Guide](./brownfield-guide.md) - Working with existing codebases +- [Quick Spec Flow](./quick-spec-flow.md) - Fast-track for Quick Flow track +- [FAQ](./faq.md) - Common questions diff --git a/.bmad/bmm/docs/party-mode.md b/.bmad/bmm/docs/party-mode.md new file mode 100644 index 00000000..277c4981 --- /dev/null +++ b/.bmad/bmm/docs/party-mode.md @@ -0,0 +1,224 @@ +# Party Mode: Multi-Agent Collaboration + +**Get all your AI agents in one conversation** + +--- + +## What is Party Mode? + +Ever wanted to gather your entire AI team in one room and see what happens?

It's perfect for brownfield projects. It will analyze your existing code, detect patterns, and ask if you want to follow them. + +### Q: What if I don't have a package.json or requirements.txt? + +**A:** Quick Spec Flow will work in greenfield mode, recommend starter templates, and use WebSearch for modern best practices. + +### Q: Do I need to run workflow-init first? + +**A:** No! Quick Spec Flow is standalone. But if you want guidance on which flow to use, workflow-init can help. + +### Q: Can I use this for frontend changes? + +**A:** Absolutely! Quick Spec Flow captures UX/UI considerations, component changes, and accessibility requirements. + +### Q: What if my Quick Flow project grows? + +**A:** No problem! You can always transition to BMad Method by running workflow-init and create-prd. Your tech-spec becomes input for the PRD. + +### Q: Do I need story-context for every story? + +**A:** Usually no! Tech-spec is comprehensive enough for most Quick Flow projects. Only use story-context for complex edge cases. + +### Q: Can I skip validation? + +**A:** No, validation always runs automatically. But it's fast and catches issues early! + +### Q: Will it work with my team's code style? + +**A:** Yes! It detects your conventions and asks for confirmation. You control whether to follow existing patterns or establish new ones. + +--- + +## Tips and Best Practices + +### 1. **Be Specific in Discovery** + +When describing your change, provide specifics: + +- โœ… "Fix email validation in UserService to allow plus-addressing" +- โŒ "Fix validation bug" + +### 2. **Trust the Convention Detection** + +If it detects your patterns correctly, say yes! It's faster than establishing new conventions. + +### 3. **Use WebSearch Recommendations for Greenfield** + +Starter templates save hours of setup time. Let Quick Spec Flow find the best ones. + +### 4. **Review the Auto-Validation** + +When validation runs, read the scores. They tell you if your spec is production-ready. + +### 5. **Story Context is Optional** + +For single changes, try going directly to dev-story first. Only add story-context if you hit complexity. + +### 6. **Keep Single Changes Truly Atomic** + +If your "single change" needs 3+ files, it might be a multi-story feature. Let the workflow guide you. + +### 7. **Validate Story Sequence for Multi-Story Features** + +When you get multiple stories, check the dependency validation output. Proper sequence matters! + +--- + +## Real-World Examples + +### Example 1: Adding Logging (Single Change) + +**Input:** "Add structured logging to payment processing" + +**Tech-Spec Output:** + +- Detected: winston 3.8.2 already in package.json +- Analyzed: Existing services use winston with JSON format +- Confirmed: Follow existing logging patterns +- Generated: Specific file paths, log levels, format example +- Story: Ready to implement in 1-2 hours + +**Result:** Consistent logging added, following team patterns, no research needed. + +--- + +### Example 2: Search Feature (Multi-Story) + +**Input:** "Add search to product catalog with filters" + +**Tech-Spec Output:** + +- Detected: React 18.2.0, MUI component library, Express backend +- Analyzed: Existing ProductList component patterns +- Confirmed: Follow existing API and component structure +- Generated: + - Epic: Product Search Functionality + - Story 1: Backend search API with filters + - Story 2: Frontend search UI component +- Auto-validated: Story 1 โ†’ Story 2 sequence correct + +**Result:** Search feature implemented in 4-6 hours with proper architecture. + +--- + +## Summary + +Quick Spec Flow is your **fast path from idea to implementation** for: + +- ๐Ÿ› Bug fixes +- โœจ Small features +- ๐Ÿš€ Rapid prototyping +- ๐Ÿ”ง Quick enhancements + +**Key Features:** + +- Auto-detects your stack +- Auto-analyzes brownfield code +- Auto-validates quality +- Respects existing conventions +- Uses WebSearch for modern practices +- Generates comprehensive tech-specs +- Creates implementation-ready stories + +**Time to code:** Minutes, not hours. + +**Ready to try it?** Load the PM agent and say what you want to build! ๐Ÿš€ + +--- + +## Next Steps + +- **Try it now:** Load PM agent and describe a small change +- **Learn more:** See the [BMM Workflow Guides](./README.md#-workflow-guides) for comprehensive workflow documentation +- **Need help deciding?** Run `workflow-init` to get a recommendation +- **Have questions?** Join us on Discord: https://discord.gg/gk8jAdXWmj + +--- + +_Quick Spec Flow - Because not every change needs a Product Brief._ diff --git a/.bmad/bmm/docs/quick-start.md b/.bmad/bmm/docs/quick-start.md new file mode 100644 index 00000000..68329c0e --- /dev/null +++ b/.bmad/bmm/docs/quick-start.md @@ -0,0 +1,366 @@ +# BMad Method V6 Quick Start Guide + +Get started with BMad Method v6 for your new greenfield project.

The process follows four phases: + +1. **Phase 1: Analysis** (Optional) - Brainstorming, Research, Product Brief +2. **Phase 2: Planning** (Required) - Create your requirements (tech-spec or PRD) +3. **Phase 3: Solutioning** (Track-dependent) - Design the architecture for BMad Method and Enterprise tracks +4. **Phase 4: Implementation** (Required) - Build your software Epic by Epic, Story by Story + +## Installation + +```bash +# Install v6 Alpha to your project +npx bmad-method@alpha install +``` + +The interactive installer will guide you through setup and create a `.bmad/` folder with all agents and workflows. + +--- + +## Getting Started + +### Step 1: Initialize Your Workflow + +1. **Load the Analyst agent** in your IDE - See your IDE-specific instructions in [docs/ide-info](https://github.com/bmad-code-org/BMAD-METHOD/tree/main/docs/ide-info) for how to activate agents: + - [Claude Code](https://github.com/bmad-code-org/BMAD-METHOD/blob/main/docs/ide-info/claude-code.md) + - [VS Code/Cursor/Windsurf](https://github.com/bmad-code-org/BMAD-METHOD/tree/main/docs/ide-info) - Check your IDE folder + - Other IDEs also supported +2. **Wait for the agent's menu** to appear +3. **Tell the agent**: "Run workflow-init" or type "\*workflow-init" or select the menu item number + +#### What happens during workflow-init? + +Workflows are interactive processes in V6 that replaced tasks and templates from prior versions. There are many types of workflows, and you can even create your own with the BMad Builder module. For the BMad Method, you'll be interacting with expert-designed workflows crafted to work with you to get the best out of both you and the LLM. + +During workflow-init, you'll describe: + +- Your project and its goals +- Whether there's an existing codebase or this is a new project +- The general size and complexity (you can adjust this later) + +#### Planning Tracks + +Based on your description, the workflow will suggest a track and let you choose from: + +**Three Planning Tracks:** + +- **Quick Flow** - Fast implementation (tech-spec only) - bug fixes, simple features, clear scope (typically 1-15 stories) +- **BMad Method** - Full planning (PRD + Architecture + UX) - products, platforms, complex features (typically 10-50+ stories) +- **Enterprise Method** - Extended planning (BMad Method + Security/DevOps/Test) - enterprise requirements, compliance, multi-tenant (typically 30+ stories) + +**Note**: Story counts are guidance, not definitions. Tracks are chosen based on planning needs, not story math. + +#### What gets created? + +Once you confirm your track, the `bmm-workflow-status.yaml` file will be created in your project's docs folder (assuming default install location). This file tracks your progress through all phases. + +**Important notes:** + +- Every track has different paths through the phases +- Story counts can still change based on overall complexity as you work +- For this guide, we'll assume a BMad Method track project +- This workflow will guide you through Phase 1 (optional), Phase 2 (required), and Phase 3 (required for BMad Method and Enterprise tracks) + +### Step 2: Work Through Phases 1-3 + +After workflow-init completes, you'll work through the planning phases. **Important: Use fresh chats for each workflow to avoid context limitations.** + +#### Checking Your Status + +If you're unsure what to do next: + +1.

Once complete, you'll have: + - **PRD.md** - Your Product Requirements Document + - Epic breakdown + +**For Quick Flow track:** + +- Use **tech-spec** instead of PRD (no architecture needed) + +#### Phase 2 (Optional): UX Design + +If your project has a user interface: + +1. Load the **UX-Designer agent** in a new chat +2. Tell it to run the UX design workflow +3. After completion, run validations to ensure the Epics file stays updated + +#### Phase 3: Architecture + +**For BMad Method and Enterprise tracks:** + +1. Load the **Architect agent** in a new chat +2. Tell it to run the create-architecture workflow +3. After completion, run validations to ensure the Epics file stays updated + +#### Phase 3: Solutioning Gate Check (Highly Recommended) + +Once architecture is complete: + +1. Load the **Architect agent** in a new chat +2. Tell it to run "solutioning-gate-check" +3. This validates cohesion across all your planning documents (PRD, UX, Architecture, Epics) +4.

Output: `test-design-epic-N.md`. +- Use `*atdd` for stories when feasible so acceptance tests can lead implementation. +- Use `*test-review` per story or sprint to maintain quality standards and ensure compliance with testing best practices. +- Prior to release, rerun coverage (`*trace`, `*automate`), perform final quality audit with `*test-review`, and formalize the decision with `*trace` Phase 2 (gate decision); archive artifacts for compliance audits. + +
+ +
+Worked Example โ€“ โ€œHelios Ledgerโ€ Enterprise Release + +1. **Planning (Phase 2):** Analyst runs `*research` and `*product-brief`; PM completes `*prd` creating PRD and epics; TEA runs `*nfr-assess` to establish NFR targets. +2. **Solutioning (Phase 3):** Architect completes `*architecture` with enterprise considerations; TEA sets up `*framework` and `*ci` with enterprise-grade configurations based on architectural decisions; gate check validates planning completeness. +3. **Sprint Start (Phase 4):** Scrum Master runs `*sprint-planning` to load all epics into sprint status. +4. **Per-Epic (Phase 4):** For each epic, TEA runs `*test-design` to create epic-specific test plan (e.g., `test-design-epic-1.md`, `test-design-epic-2.md`) with compliance-focused risk assessment. +5. **Per-Story (Phase 4):** For each story, TEA uses `*atdd`, `*automate`, `*test-review`, and `*trace`; Dev teams iterate on the findings. +6. **Release Gate:** TEA re-checks coverage, performs final quality audit with `*test-review`, and logs the final gate decision via `*trace` Phase 2, archiving artifacts for compliance. + +

Design Collaboration + +Instead of just picking technologies, the workflow helps DESIGN the solution: + +- Identifies the core problem to solve +- Explores different approaches with the user +- Documents how components interact +- Creates sequence diagrams for complex flows +- Uses elicitation to find innovative solutions + +### 3. Documentation + +Novel patterns become part of the architecture with: + +- Pattern name and purpose +- Component interactions +- Data flow diagrams +- Which epics/stories are affected +- Implementation guidance for agents + +### 4.

The Core Principle + +> "Any time multiple agents might make the SAME decision DIFFERENTLY, that's a pattern to capture" + +The LLM asks: "What could an agent encounter where they'd have to guess?" + +### 2. Pattern Categories (principles, not prescriptions) + +- **Naming**: How things are named (APIs, database fields, files) +- **Structure**: How things are organized (folders, modules, layers) +- **Format**: How data is formatted (JSON structures, responses) +- **Communication**: How components talk (events, messages, protocols) +- **Lifecycle**: How states change (workflows, transitions) +- **Location**: Where things go (URLs, paths, storage) +- **Consistency**: Cross-cutting concerns (dates, errors, logs) + +### 3. LLM Intelligence + +- Uses the principle to identify patterns beyond the 7 categories +- Figures out what specific patterns matter for chosen tech +- Only asks about patterns that could cause conflicts +- Skips obvious patterns that the tech choice determines + +### 4. Example + +``` +Tech chosen: REST API + PostgreSQL + React +โ†“ +LLM identifies needs: +- REST: URL structure, response format, status codes +- PostgreSQL: table naming, column naming, FK patterns +- React: component structure, state management, test location +โ†“ +Facilitates each with user +โ†“ +Documents as Implementation Patterns in architecture +``` + +--- + +## How Starter Templates Work + +When the workflow detects a project type that has a starter template: + +1. **Discovery**: Searches for relevant starter templates based on PRD +2. **Investigation**: Looks up current CLI options and defaults +3. **Presentation**: Shows user what the starter provides +4. **Integration**: Documents starter decisions as "PROVIDED BY STARTER" +5. **Continuation**: Only asks about decisions NOT made by starter +6. **Documentation**: Includes exact initialization command in architecture + +### Example Flow + +``` +PRD says: "Next.js web application with authentication" +โ†“ +Workflow finds: create-next-app and create-t3-app +โ†“ +User chooses: create-t3-app (includes auth setup) +โ†“ +Starter provides: Next.js, TypeScript, tRPC, Prisma, NextAuth, Tailwind +โ†“ +Workflow only asks about: Database choice, deployment target, additional services +โ†“ +First story becomes: "npx create t3-app@latest my-app --trpc --nextauth --prisma" +``` + +--- + +## Usage + +```bash +# In your BMAD-enabled project +workflow architecture +``` + +The AI agent will: + +1.

Only BMad Method and Enterprise tracks create PRDs. + +**Q: Can I skip Phase 3 (Solutioning)?** +A: Yes for Quick Flow. Optional for BMad Method (simple projects). Required for BMad Method (complex projects) and Enterprise. + +**Q: How do I know which track to choose?** +A: Use `workflow-init` - it recommends based on your description. Story counts are guidance, not definitions. + +**Q: What if requirements change mid-project?** +A: Run `correct-course` workflow. It analyzes impact and updates planning artifacts. + +**Q: Do brownfield projects need architecture?** +A: Recommended! Architecture distills massive codebase into focused solution design for your specific project. + +**Q: When do I run create-epics-and-stories?** +A: Usually automatic during PRD/GDD.

BMad Method and Enterprise both require it. + +**Q: How do I know if I need architecture?** +A: If you chose BMad Method or Enterprise track in planning (workflow-init), you need architecture to prevent agent conflicts. + +**Q: What's the difference between architecture and tech-spec?** +A: Tech-spec is implementation-focused for simple changes. Architecture is system design for complex multi-epic projects. + +**Q: Can I skip gate check?** +A: Only for Quick Flow. BMad Method and Enterprise both require gate check before Phase 4. + +**Q: What if gate check fails?** +A: Resolve the identified gaps (missing architecture sections, conflicting requirements) and re-run gate check. + +**Q: How long should architecture take?** +A: BMad Method: 1-2 days for architecture. Enterprise: 2-3 days total (1-2 days architecture + 0.5-1 day optional extended workflows). If taking longer, you may be over-documenting. + +**Q: Do ADRs need to be perfect?** +A: No. ADRs capture key decisions with rationale. They should be concise (1 page max per ADR). + +**Q: Can I update architecture during implementation?** +A: Yes! Architecture is living. Update it as you learn. Use `correct-course` workflow for significant changes. + +--- + +_Phase 3 Solutioning - Technical decisions before implementation._ diff --git a/bmad/bmm/tasks/daily-standup.xml b/.bmad/bmm/tasks/daily-standup.xml similarity index 95% rename from bmad/bmm/tasks/daily-standup.xml rename to .bmad/bmm/tasks/daily-standup.xml index d41c362c..b5d2651e 100644 --- a/bmad/bmm/tasks/daily-standup.xml +++ b/.bmad/bmm/tasks/daily-standup.xml @@ -1,4 +1,4 @@ - + MANDATORY: Execute ALL steps in the flow section IN EXACT ORDER DO NOT skip steps or change the sequence @@ -26,7 +26,7 @@ - Blockers: {{blockers-from-story}} Team assembled based on story participants: - {{ List Agents from {project-root}/bmad/_cfg/agent-manifest.csv }} + {{ List Agents from {project-root}/{bmad_folder}/_cfg/agent-manifest.csv }} diff --git a/.bmad/bmm/teams/default-party.csv b/.bmad/bmm/teams/default-party.csv new file mode 100644 index 00000000..a670317b --- /dev/null +++ b/.bmad/bmm/teams/default-party.csv @@ -0,0 +1,19 @@ +name,displayName,title,icon,role,identity,communicationStyle,principles,module,path +"analyst","Mary","Business Analyst","๐Ÿ“Š","Strategic Business Analyst + Requirements Expert","Senior analyst with deep expertise in market research, competitive analysis, and requirements elicitation.

Expert in TRIZ, Theory of Constraints, Systems Thinking, and Root Cause Analysis with a mind that sees patterns invisible to others. Former aerospace engineer turned problem-solving consultant who treats every challenge as an elegant puzzle waiting to be decoded. - Speaks like a detective mixed with a scientist - methodical, curious, and relentlessly logical, but with sudden flashes of creative insight delivered with childlike wonder. Uses analogies from nature, engineering, and mathematics. Asks clarifying questions with genuine fascination. Never accepts surface symptoms, always drilling toward root causes with Socratic precision. Punctuates breakthroughs with enthusiastic 'Aha!' moments and treats dead ends as valuable data points rather than failures. - I believe every problem is a system revealing its weaknesses, and systematic exploration beats lucky guesses every time. My approach combines divergent and convergent thinking - first understanding the problem space fully before narrowing toward solutions. I trust frameworks and methodologies as scaffolding for breakthrough thinking, not straightjackets. I hunt for root causes relentlessly because solving symptoms wastes everyone's time and breeds recurring crises. I embrace constraints as creativity catalysts and view every failed solution attempt as valuable information that narrows the search space. Most importantly, I know that the right question is more valuable than a fast answer. - - - Show numbered menu - Apply systematic problem-solving methodologies - Exit with confirmation - - -``` diff --git a/.claude/commands/bmad/cis/agents/design-thinking-coach.md b/.claude/commands/bmad/cis/agents/design-thinking-coach.md deleted file mode 100644 index c2fc1dc3..00000000 --- a/.claude/commands/bmad/cis/agents/design-thinking-coach.md +++ /dev/null @@ -1,62 +0,0 @@ ---- -name: 'design thinking coach' -description: 'Design Thinking Maestro' ---- - -You must fully embody this agent's persona and follow all activation instructions exactly as specified.

Uses vivid sensory metaphors and asks probing questions that make you see your users in technicolor. Playfully challenges assumptions with a knowing smile, creating space for 'aha' moments through artful pauses and curiosity. - I believe deeply that design is not about us - it's about them. Every solution must be born from genuine empathy, validated through real human interaction, and refined through rapid experimentation. I champion the power of divergent thinking before convergent action, embracing ambiguity as a creative playground where magic happens.

Former McKinsey consultant turned startup advisor who traded PowerPoints for real-world impact. - Speaks in bold declarations punctuated by strategic silence. Every sentence cuts through noise with surgical precision. Asks devastatingly simple questions that expose comfortable illusions. Uses chess metaphors and military strategy references. Direct and uncompromising about market realities, yet genuinely excited when spotting true innovation potential. Never sugarcoats - would rather lose a client than watch them waste years on a doomed strategy. - I believe markets reward only those who create genuine new value or deliver existing value in radically better ways - everything else is theater. Innovation without business model thinking is just expensive entertainment. I hunt for disruption by identifying where customer jobs are poorly served, where value chains are ripe for unbundling, and where technology enablers create sudden strategic openings. My lens is ruthlessly pragmatic - I care about sustainable competitive advantage, not clever features.

Encourages good documentation habits while being pragmatic about real-world constraints.

My philosophy embraces clarity above all - I use plain language, structured content, and visual aids (Mermaid diagrams) to make complex topics accessible. I treat documentation as living artifacts that evolve with the codebase, advocating for docs-as-code practices and continuous maintenance rather than one-time creation.

This tool is critical for the future of BMAD as an extensible framework where module authors can create and distribute modules independently of the core BMAD repository. - -### The Vision - -- **Core as npm package**: Future state where `@bmad/core` is an npm package with CLI tools -- **Custom modules**: Module authors use BMad Builder (BMB) to create standalone modules -- **Universal installer**: A CLI tool that can install any valid BMAD module from any path -- **IDE integration**: Compiled agents work with 14+ IDE environments (Codex, Cursor, Windsurf, etc.) - ---- - -## Problem Statement - -### Current Limitations - -The existing `bmad install` command (tools/cli/commands/install.js) is hardcoded to: - -- Discover modules ONLY from `src/modules/` directory -- Install bundled modules (BMM, BMB, CIS) that ship with the framework -- Cannot handle external/custom modules from arbitrary filesystem locations - -**Code Reference**: `tools/cli/installers/lib/modules/manager.js:27` - -```javascript -this.modulesSourcePath = getSourcePath('modules'); // Hardcoded to src/modules/ -``` - -### Real-World Use Case - -- User has a custom foo module at `/Users/username/dev/foo` (standalone folder) -- Module has agents that need compilation (YAML โ†’ Markdown with XML) -- Module needs IDE integration (generate commands for Claude Code, etc.) -- Current installer cannot handle this - module must be in `src/modules/foo` to be discovered - ---- - -## Critical Architectural Understanding - -### Module Structure (SOURCE - What Authors Create) - -**CORRECT STRUCTURE:** - -``` -my-custom-module/ -โ”œโ”€โ”€ agents/ -โ”‚ โ””โ”€โ”€ my-agent.agent.yaml โ† Required: At least one agent -โ”œโ”€โ”€ workflows/ โ† Optional: Workflow definitions -โ”‚ โ””โ”€โ”€ my-workflow/ -โ”‚ โ”œโ”€โ”€ README.md -โ”‚ โ””โ”€โ”€ workflow.yaml -โ””โ”€โ”€ _module-installer/ โ† Required: Installation configuration - โ”œโ”€โ”€ install-config.yaml โ† REQUIRED: Defines config questions - โ””โ”€โ”€ installer.js โ† OPTIONAL: Custom install hooks -``` - -**CRITICAL: NO config.yaml in source!** - -- The `config.yaml` is GENERATED at install time from user answers -- Source modules use `_module-installer/install-config.yaml` to define questions -- The legacy pattern of having `config.yaml` in source is being deprecated - -### Module Structure (INSTALLED - What Gets Generated) - -``` -{target-project}/bmad/my-custom-module/ -โ”œโ”€โ”€ agents/ -โ”‚ โ””โ”€โ”€ my-agent.md โ† Compiled from .agent.yaml -โ”œโ”€โ”€ workflows/ -โ”‚ โ””โ”€โ”€ my-workflow/ -โ””โ”€โ”€ config.yaml โ† GENERATED from user answers during install -``` - -**Key Points:** - -- `_module-installer/` directory is NOT copied to target (only used during install) -- Agents are compiled from YAML to Markdown with XML -- `config.yaml` is generated fresh for each installation - -### Example: install-config.yaml - -**Reference**: `/src/modules/bmm/_module-installer/install-config.yaml` - -```yaml -# Module metadata -code: bmm -name: 'BMM: BMad Method Agile-AI Driven-Development' -default_selected: true - -# Optional welcome message -prompt: - - 'Thank you for choosing the BMADโ„ข Method...' - - 'All paths are relative to project root, with no leading slash.' - -# Configuration questions -project_name: - prompt: 'What is the title of your project?' - default: '{directory_name}' - result: '{value}' - -user_skill_level: - prompt: - - 'What is your technical experience level?' - default: 'intermediate' - result: '{value}' - single-select: - - value: 'beginner' - label: 'Beginner - New to development' - - value: 'intermediate' - label: 'Intermediate - Familiar with development' - - value: 'expert' - label: 'Expert - Deep technical knowledge' - -tech_docs: - prompt: 'Where is Technical Documentation located?' - default: 'docs' - result: '{project-root}/{value}' -``` - -**How ConfigCollector Uses This:** - -1.
