- All bmad-manifest.json files bumped to 0.4.1
- Design Space manifest: work-orders replaced with update-status
- Added "For Agents Without Specific Instructions" section
to Design Space SKILL.md — any agent entering the system
gets a clear guide on how messaging works
Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.6 (1M context) <noreply@anthropic.com>
Everything is a message. Work orders use message_type: "work-order".
Check returns ALL messages — signal strength highlights, never hides.
New update-status action. Legacy task actions preserved for compat.

Transforms the Platform Requirements steps from a technology shopping
list into a complete build specification that a coding agent can
execute autonomously.
New steps:
- 28a: Data Model — complete database schema (every table, column, type,
default, constraint, relationship, index, release phase tags)
- 28b: State Machines — every stateful entity gets states, transitions,
triggers, per-phase action differences, feature gate pattern
- 28c: Business Logic, Events & API — calculations as pseudocode,
event system (scheduled/webhook/user), notification rules, complete
API surface with request/response shapes, auth spec, AI integration
Updated steps:
- 28: Tech Stack now includes architecture pattern and API style
- 32: Finalization now includes the Litmus Test — "Can a coding agent
build the entire platform from this document alone?"
Inspired by RightsTrak session where Saga produced a tech selection
document and Mårten had to push four times to get a build spec.
The 200-line tech list became a 700-line actionable specification.

Design Space (Agent Space) is now a self-contained BMad skill in WDS:
- Semantic knowledge search, capture, cross-agent messaging
- Session-scoped presence (saga-2567), work orders, online roster
- Embedded HTTP credentials — works everywhere without MCP
- Will be placed in _bmad/wds/ by installer when selected
Also bumps version to 0.3.5 including Saga/Freya skill conversion.
Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.6 (1M context) <noreply@anthropic.com>
New skill structure:
- src/skills/saga/SKILL.md — full agent with Product Brief + Trigger Map
- src/skills/freya/SKILL.md — full agent with UX Scenarios + UX Design
- bmad-manifest.json for each with capability menus
- references/ with all agent guides copied into skill directories
Skills are self-contained — no SKILL.md → workflow.md routing.
Follows BMad skill format: 2-part description, activation modes,
progressive disclosure, references loaded on demand.
Old activation files (saga.activation.md, freya.activation.md) kept
for now — can be removed after installer is updated.

Saga now analyzes provided documents before asking questions.
See CHANGELOG.md for full details.
Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.6 (1M context) <noreply@anthropic.com>
When users provide existing materials (PRD, brief, research), Saga now:
1. Reads and extracts information into categories (vision, users, etc.)
2. Presents findings ONE category at a time for user confirmation
3. Identifies gaps after all confirmed categories
4. Plans which steps need full conversation vs quick confirmation
5. Skips exploratory questions for already-confirmed topics
Updated 13 files:
- working-with-existing-materials.md: complete rewrite with new protocol
- step-01-init.md: Material Analysis Phase trigger after welcome
- Steps 02-11: "Check Material Analysis Status" gate before exploration
Fixes the "black hole" problem where Saga acknowledged documents
but then asked questions whose answers were in those documents.

Idunn (PM agent) has been deprecated. Freya now handles design delivery,
product evolution, and agentic development. Platform requirements moved
to Saga under Phase 1. Deleted 9 Idunn-owned files, updated 33 files
across src/ and docs/.

_base-ide.js required the 'yaml' package (devDependency only) instead of
'js-yaml' (production dependency), causing all IDE integrations to fail
during npx install. Also cleans up legacy _wds-learn/ during migration.
Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.6 <noreply@anthropic.com>
wdsFolder was initialized from detection.folder ('_wds') but the
migrate-update branch never reassigned it to WDS_FOLDER ('_bmad/wds').
This caused the migration check (wdsFolder !== '_wds') to be false,
silently skipping the folder move.

Major changes in this release:
- Design log system replaces agent dialogs
- Installer supports _bmad/wds/ standard path with legacy migration
- Improved installer UX: update/migrate asked first, config skipped on update
Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.6 <noreply@anthropic.com>
Restructure the prompt flow so the update/fresh/migrate decision comes
before config questions. On update, config.yaml is preserved so asking
project name, output folder, IDEs etc. is unnecessary. Extract ides and
root_folder from saved config for IDE setup and folder creation.
Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.6 <noreply@anthropic.com>
Change default installation path from _wds/ to _bmad/wds/ to follow
BMAD module conventions. Add detection logic for existing installations
and migration prompt for legacy _wds/ projects.

Replace Agent Dialog Gate with Design Log entry point in all 29 activity
workflows (phases 2-8). Replace "Update agent dialog" with "Update design log"
in 90+ step files across phases 5, 7, and 8. Update data files, guides,
presentations, and templates to reference design log instead of agent dialogs.
Only the deprecated _agent-dialogs/ archive folder retains original references.
Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.6 <noreply@anthropic.com>
Remove Agent Dialog Gate from all 9 activity workflows and the main
workflow.md initialization. Replace with a single 00-design-log.md file
containing Backlog, Current, Design Loop Status, and Log sections.
- Rewrite workflow.md adaptive dashboard to read from design log only
- Create 00-design-log.template.md, delete old 00-progress.template.md
- Update installer.js: agent-experiences folder replaces agent-dialogs
- Rename 00-progress.md → 00-design-log.md across all phases (1-5)
- Update step files to use agent experiences instead of agent dialogs
- 30 files changed, net reduction of ~140 lines of ceremony

Path fixes across 14 files:
- D-UX-Design/ → C-UX-Scenarios/ (page specs) or D-Design-System/ (tokens)
- 4-scenarios/ → C-UX-Scenarios/ (all step files and page creation flows)
New spacing & typography step in [P] Specify:
- step-08-spacing-typography.md defines section spacing objects and heading tokens
- Old step-08 renumbered to step-09, references updated to steps 1-8
[M] Design System extraction rules:
- Objects extract on 2nd use, spacing extracts immediately on 1st use
- Component extraction check before designing 2nd+ page
[S] Suggest step-15 alignment:
- Old [A]/[S]/[M] menu replaced with two-option transitions
- Matches the pattern used by [C] Conceptualize and workflow-suggest.md

New lessons in Module 11: Spacing as First-Class Objects (lesson 04) and
Typography Tokens (lesson 05). Updated module overview with dual-ID system,
positional IDs, and new lesson links. Tutorial 11 now includes spacing and
typography steps. Module 12 lesson 01 updated with object vs spacing
extraction timing rules.

- Page spec template: rename -gap to -space, use {page}-{v|h}-{type}-{size} naming
- Design system template: objects extract on 2nd use, spacing extracts immediately
- Pattern examples updated with Above/Below/Why table format
Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.6 <noreply@anthropic.com>
Spacing gets the same treatment as typography — named tokens, a baseline
(space-md), and optical adjustments using token math. But the real shift:
spacing between objects is now a first-class object with its own ID in
page specs, organized in a Patterns section in the design system.
Key additions:
- Spacing Scale: 9 tokens (space-3xs to space-3xl), bring-your-own supported
- Type Scale: 9 tokens (text-3xs to text-3xl), semantic/visual separation
- Optical adjustments: token math (space-lg - space-3xs) with annotations
- Spacing objects in page specs: ↕ `id` — token, including space-zero
- Patterns section: organized by spacing value, context added on violation
- Agent reflection behavior: observe and reflect, don't interrogate
- Design loop: pattern recognition emerges from real design decisions
Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.6 <noreply@anthropic.com>
Design system template: spacing scale (9 tokens, space-3xs to space-3xl)
and type scale (9 tokens, text-3xs to text-3xl) with bring-your-own option.
Semantic heading level separated from visual text sizing — H1 can look
different on every page. Page spec template: spacing, typography, and
per-section padding/gap using token names. Design loop guide: 9 steps
(added APPROVE — user exports PNG as approval gate), spacing discipline,
export=approval pattern. Wireframe flow: agent draws, user reviews, user
exports PNG to confirm, then spec syncs.

Replace static activity menu with adaptive dashboard that reads agent dialogs
(session plans) and per-page design log to suggest where to continue. Add
explicit design log reporting points with exact file paths and formats to all
Phase 4 and 5 workflow files. Replace all "Return to activity menu" dead ends
with two-option transitions. Rename Conceptualize → Discuss. Implements
learnings from Källa Fordonservice project.

- Remove "Strategic Context (Step 4)" from Phase 1 guide — Phase 1 is
casual business discovery, not trigger mapping
- Update flowchart to remove Strategic Context box
- Mark VTC guide as "Removed" (was "Deprecated")
- Historical session logs in docs/examples/ left as-is (records)
Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.6 <noreply@anthropic.com>
The VTC (Value Trigger Chain) was a separate concept that extracted
specific nodes from the Trigger Map into a YAML file. This caused
agents to run trigger mapping during Phase 1 (Product Brief), forcing
users to repeat the work in Phase 2. Observed in Monday workshop.
Architectural fix:
- Phase 1 is casual business discovery, NOT trigger mapping
- Phase 2 is where the Trigger Map gets built (unchanged)
- When scenarios/content need strategic context, they reference
the Trigger Map directly — no separate VTC concept needed
Removed (19 files deleted):
- 1-project-brief/vtc-workshop/ (14 step files + workflow)
- step-04-create-vtc.md and step-11a-create-vtc.md from Phase 1
- step-03c-create-vtc.md from Phase 0 alignment
- vtc-template.yaml
Renamed:
- step-03-build-vtcs.md → step-03-build-strategic-context.md
- step-02-vtc-consistency.md → step-02-trigger-map-consistency.md
- step-01-load-vtc-context.md → step-01-load-trigger-map-context.md
- 07-create-vtc.md → 07-reference-trigger-map.md
Rewritten:
- Phase 4 scenario init: "create VTC" → lightweight "pick from Trigger Map"
- Phase 6 content: load context from Trigger Map, not from VTC
- Templates: "Trigger Map" section → "Business Context" (Phase 1 scope)
Zero VTC references remain in src/.

Systematic cleanup of Value Trigger Chain (VTC) references in 60 files across
all phases. VTC is replaced with context-appropriate terms:
- "Trigger Map" when referencing the Phase 2 artifact
- "Strategic context" when referencing the extracted business/persona/forces data
- "Value Proposition" for customer-facing value descriptions
Remaining VTC references are only in VTC Workshop definition files (vtc-workshop/,
create-vtc steps) which will be addressed when those workflows are redesigned.
