Agent skills referenced with shortened names (bmad-pm, bmad-architect,
etc.) that don't match installed skill names. Fixed to use actual names
(bmad-agent-pm, bmad-agent-architect, etc.) across EN, ZH-CN, and FR.
Also fixed bmad-research to three specific research skills (EN, FR) and
bmad-product-brief to bmad-create-product-brief (ZH-CN).

* fix(docs): correct Hasselhoff spelling, add locale-aware 404 redirect
Fix "Hasslehoff" → "Hasselhoff" typo in customize-bmad.md across all
three locales (en, zh-cn, fr).
Add client-side locale detection to 404.astro so GitHub Pages serves
the correct localized 404 page instead of always showing English.

* fix(build): exclude translated locales from llms-full.txt
llms-full.txt was including zh-cn and fr docs, tripling the content
with duplicate information in different languages. Restrict to English
only — translations add no value for LLM context consumption.
Reduces output from ~393K to ~114K chars (~29k tokens).

* refactor(i18n): extract locale config to shared module
Move locale definitions from astro.config.mjs into a shared
website/src/lib/locales.mjs consumed by astro config, build-docs,
and 404.astro. Adding a new locale is now a single-file change.

* refactor(installer): remove dead agent compilation pipeline
Delete 9 files (~2,600 lines) that compiled .agent.yaml to .md.
No .agent.yaml files exist in the source tree — agents now ship
as pre-built SKILL.md. Clean up all references in installer,
module manager, custom handler, base IDE, UI, and tests.
* refactor(custom-handler): remove dead install/copy/find methods
CustomHandler.install(), copyDirectory(), and findFilesRecursively()
are never called — custom modules are installed via moduleManager.install()
since Dec 2025. Also removes unused FileOps import and constructor.
Verified with before/after clean-installer comparison (codex + custom
modules with custom.yaml): output is identical.

* fix(installer): remove dead compilation refs from docs and module manager

- Clean stale compilation-era comments in manifest-generator

Quick Flow was an umbrella for quick-spec + quick-dev. Quick Spec is
gone and the new preview was promoted to bmad-quick-dev, so the explainer
should be about quick-dev directly. Replaces quick-flow.md with the
original quick-dev-new-preview.md content (renamed), including the
diagram reference. zh-cn uses the original hand-written Chinese
translation. Also removes stale Quick Spec references from agents.md.

* refactor: consolidate agents into phase-based skill directories
Remove separate agent/workflow/skill directories (src/bmm/agents,
src/bmm/workflows, src/core/skills, src/utility/agent-components) and
reorganize all content into phase-based structures under src/bmm-skills
(1-analysis, 2-plan-workflows, 3-solutioning, 4-implementation) and
src/core-skills. Eliminates the agent/skill distinction by treating
agents as skills within their workflow phase.
* fix: update broken file references to use new bmm-skills paths
* docs: update all references for unified bmad-quick-dev workflow
Remove all references to the old separate bmad-quick-spec and
bmad-quick-dev-new-preview workflows. The new bmad-quick-dev is a
unified workflow that handles intent clarification, planning,
implementation, review, and presentation in a single run.
Updated files across English docs, Chinese translations, source
skill manifests, website diagram, and build tooling.

* docs: add core tools reference and apply Diataxis style fixes
Add comprehensive reference doc for all 11 built-in core tools (tasks
and workflows) that ship with every BMad installation — bmad-help,
brainstorming, party-mode, distillator, advanced-elicitation, both
review tools, both editorial tools, shard-doc, and index-docs. Each
entry follows the Configuration Reference structure with purpose,
use cases, how it works, inputs, and outputs.
Style fixes across existing docs:
- reference/commands.md: convert #### headers to bold text, replace
sparse task table with link to new core-tools reference
- how-to/get-answers-about-bmad.md: remove horizontal rule between
sections (Diataxis violation)
- how-to/project-context.md: consolidate 4 consecutive tip admonitions
into single admonition with bullet list, add AGENTS.md reference
Also includes:
- Add bmad-distillator task to core module with compression agents,
format reference, splitting strategy, and analysis scripts
- Add Distillator entry to module-help.csv
- Rename supports-autonomous to supports-headless in product-brief

Adds a "Trigger Types" section to the agents reference page
explaining the difference between workflow triggers (no arguments)
and conversational triggers (arguments required). Lists all
Technical Writer triggers that expect user-provided input with
examples of proper usage.
Fixes#1682
The testing reference page incorrectly described Quinn's Automate
workflow as running per-story before Code Review, contradicting the
workflow map which positions it after epic completion. Align the testing
page with the workflow map: Quinn runs after all stories in an epic are
implemented and code-reviewed.
* docs: drop slash-command syntax from skill references (editorial)
Skill names like bmad-help are now shown without a / prefix since
invocation syntax varies across platforms. First-encounter locations
(README, getting-started, get-answers, installer message, bmad-help
display rules) get editorial framing so new users understand these
are skill names to invoke by name.

* refactor(augment): remove legacy YAML/XML workflow rules from code review guidelines
All workflows have been converted to markdown. Remove workflow.yaml,
workflow.xml, and config_source references from Augment review rules.
Drop the entire xml_workflows section (5 rules) and the YAML-specific
standard_workflow_instructions rule.
* refactor: extract discover_inputs protocol from workflow.xml into co-located markdown
Convert the discover_inputs XML protocol (FULL_LOAD, SELECTIVE_LOAD,
INDEX_GUIDED strategies) into standalone markdown files placed alongside
the two workflows that use it (create-story, code-review). Replace
<invoke-protocol> tags with explicit file references. This decouples
the workflows from workflow.xml, enabling its deletion in a follow-up.

* refactor: delete dead YAML/XML workflow engine files
Remove 5 files made obsolete by the workflow.yaml → workflow.md migration:
- workflow.xml (the YAML workflow interpreter engine)
- dev-story/instructions.xml (superseded by workflow.md)
- 3 installer templates for YAML workflow command generation
References in CLI code will be cleaned up in follow-up commits.

* feat(i18n): add zh-cn locale support with Starlight routing
Reorganize Chinese translations from docs_cn/ into docs/zh-cn/
following Starlight's i18n content structure. Configure Starlight
with root locale (en, unprefixed) and zh-cn (/zh-cn/ prefix).
- Move 28 files from docs_cn/*_cn.md to docs/zh-cn/*.md
- Fix 21 internal links to remove _cn suffixes
- Add defaultLocale + locales config to astro.config.mjs
- Add .gitignore exception for docs/zh-cn/ (overrides z*/ rule)
- Language switcher activates automatically via existing Header
- hreflang tags auto-generated by Starlight on all pages
* feat(i18n): add zh-CN UI translations and sidebar labels
- Add website/src/content/i18n/zh-CN.json with Starlight UI strings
- Add sidebar group label translations (欢迎, 路线图, 教程, etc.)
- Register i18n collection in content config to fix deprecation warning
* fix(i18n): exclude 404 pages from sitemap
Custom 404 pages (root and zh-cn) were indexed as regular content in
the sitemap. Add a filter to the @astrojs/sitemap integration that
matches the /404 path segment precisely via regex on the URL pathname.
Update the BMAD acronym expansion from "Breakthrough Method of
Agile AI Driven Development" to "Build More Architect Dreams"
across README, docs homepage, and package.json description.

Windsurf is no longer a preferred IDE. Only Claude Code and Cursor
are now recommended. Windsurf remains a supported platform (installer
still works, templates stay, reference tables stay).
- Set preferred: false in both platform-codes.yaml files
- Move windsurf entry to "Other IDEs" section in tools/platform-codes.yaml

BMad-Help is one of V6's flagship features but was undersold in docs.
This update positions it properly as the intelligent guide that:
- Inspects project state and detects what's completed
- Understands natural language queries
- Varies options based on installed modules
- Auto-invokes after every workflow
- Recommends first required tasks
Changes:
- Add dedicated "Meet BMad-Help" section to getting-started
- Expand commands.md with full BMad-Help subsection and examples
- Reposition get-answers-about-bmad.md to start with BMad-Help
- Enhance install-bmad.md and established-projects.md with query examples
- Add index.md tip box promoting /bmad-help as quickest way to dive in
Adds a new "Extend and Customize" section with a link to the BMad Builder documentation for users interested in creating custom agents, workflows, or modules.
* fix(docs): comprehensive documentation site review fixes
Rehype plugins:

- Fail build when content directory cannot be detected
- Export helpers for testability; add 107 unit tests
Build & CI:
- Revert cancel-in-progress to false to avoid mid-deploy cancellation
- Remove redundant link-validation CI step (build validates internally)
- Remove unnecessary fetch-depth:0 from docs deploy workflow
- Refuse docs build on Windows (platform guard)
- Remove dead build scripts and stale references
Tooling:

* fix(docs): add non-interactive installation to sidebar, rewrite and reorder how-to guides
- Move non-interactive-installation.md into how-to/ directory so it appears
in the sidebar navigation (was orphaned at docs root)
- Rewrite the page based on editorial review: consolidate redundant sections,
add missing how-to structure (prerequisites, "What You Get"), condense
installation modes from 5 subsections to a table, cut speculative examples
- Reorder how-to sidebar: Install (1), Non-Interactive (2), Upgrade to v6 (3),
then the rest following user journey order
- Fix README link to point to docs site instead of repo-internal markdown path

The downloads page offered bmad-sources.zip and bmad-prompts.zip, both
redundant: GitHub provides source archives for every tag natively, and
npx bmad-method install is the supported path for compiled prompts.
Remove the downloads page, all bundle generation code, the archiver
dependency, and nav links. The llms.txt and llms-full.txt files (the
genuinely useful artifacts) continue to be generated as before.
