* refactor(installer): remove legacy workflow, task, and agent IDE generators
All platforms now use skill_format exclusively. The old
WorkflowCommandGenerator, TaskToolCommandGenerator, and
AgentCommandGenerator code paths in _config-driven.js were
no-ops — collectSkills claims every directory before the
legacy collectors run, making their manifests empty.
Removed:
- workflow-command-generator.js (deleted)
- task-tool-command-generator.js (deleted)
- writeAgentArtifacts, writeWorkflowArtifacts, writeTaskToolArtifacts
- AgentCommandGenerator import from _config-driven.js
- Legacy artifact_types/agents/workflows/tasks result fields
Simplified installToTarget, installToMultipleTargets, printSummary,
and IDE manager detail builder to skills-only.
Updated test fixture to use SKILL.md format instead of old agent format.
* fix(installer): address PR review findings from #2078
- Fix temp dir leak in test fixture cleanup (use path.dirname)
- Fail loudly when skill_format missing instead of silent success
- Add workflow.md to test fixture for verbatim-copy coverage

* feat(agents): convert all BMM agents to conformant skill structure
Replace legacy XML-based .agent.yaml files with new SKILL.md + bmad-manifest.json
format for all 9 BMM agents (analyst, architect, dev, pm, qa, sm,
quick-flow-solo-dev, ux-designer, tech-writer). Each agent now has:
- SKILL.md with persona, activation flow (bmad-init, project context, dynamic menu)
- bmad-manifest.json with capabilities referencing external skills
- bmad-skill-manifest.yaml for party-mode agent-manifest.csv generation
Tech-writer includes internal prompt files for write-document, mermaid-gen,
validate-doc, and explain-concept capabilities.
Also includes core bmad-init skill and removes legacy agent compilation tests
that referenced the old .agent.yaml format.

* feat(installer): support new SKILL.md agent format in manifest generation
Update getAgentsFromDir to detect directories with bmad-skill-manifest.yaml
where type=agent and extract metadata directly from the YAML fields. This
allows the agent-manifest.csv to be populated from both old-format compiled
.md agents (XML parsing) and new-format SKILL.md agents (YAML manifest).

* fix(installer): install type:agent skills to IDE native skills directory
The collectSkills scanner only recognized type:skill manifests, causing
new-format agents (type:agent in bmad-skill-manifest.yaml) to be added
to agent-manifest.csv but not installed to .claude/skills/. Now both
type:skill and type:agent are recognized as installable skills, while
collectAgents still processes type:agent dirs for the agent manifest
even when claimed by the skill scanner.

* fix(installer): suppress canonicalId warning for type:agent skills
Agent-type skill manifests legitimately use canonicalId for agent-manifest
mapping (e.g., bmad-analyst). Only warn for regular type:skill manifests.

* feat(skills): update analyst manifest and simplify bmad-init instructions
Switch analyst's create-brief menu entry to the new product-brief-preview
skill. Simplify bmad-init SKILL.md by removing hardcoded code fences and
making the script path relative to the skill directory.

* fix(bmm): update tech-writer CSV refs to new skill path
The module-help.csv still referenced the old agent YAML path for
tech-writer entries. Update to skill:bmad-agent-tech-writer to match
the conformant skill structure.

Add Ona (ona.com) to the BMAD installer so users can select it during
`npx bmad-method install` or via `--tools ona`. Skills are installed to
`.ona/skills/<name>/SKILL.md` using the default templates.
Fixes#1967

Subtract agents from total skill directories so the summary shows
non-agent skills and agents as distinct counts (e.g. 34 skills, 10
agents) instead of double-counting agents in the skill total.
* fix(installer): simplify install summary
* style: fix prettier formatting in test file

* fix(installer): clean up temp dir leak and conditional IDE footer
- Return fixture root from createSkillCollisionFixture so cleanup
removes the parent temp directory, not just the _bmad child
- Only show bmad-help next-step line when IDEs are configured

* refactor(skills): add SKILL.md entrypoint to skill directories
Align skill source format with Open Skills standard: each skill
directory now contains a SKILL.md with name/description frontmatter
where name must match the directory name exactly. The installer
copies skill directories verbatim instead of generating SKILL.md.
- Add SKILL.md to both tracer bullet skill directories
- Strip name/description from workflow.md frontmatter (SKILL.md owns it)
- Installer reads metadata from SKILL.md, validates name matches dirname
- Install path in manifest CSV now points to SKILL.md
- Copy filter excludes OS/editor artifacts (.DS_Store, backups, dotfiles)
- Debug-guard validation messages, keep name-mismatch as hard error
- Add typeof guard for malformed YAML frontmatter
- Add negative test cases for parseSkillMd validation (Suite 30)
* fix(skills): improve quick-dev-new-preview description for LLM discovery
Add trigger context so LLMs know when to invoke the skill,
matching the "Use when..." pattern used by other skills.
* fix(cli): validate frontmatter name/description are strings in parseSkillMd
Prevents cleanForCSV() crash when YAML parses name or description as
a non-string type (number, object, boolean).
* fix(cli): address PR review findings (mkdtemp, regex escape, recursive filter)
- Replace Date.now() temp dir with fs.mkdtemp() in Suite 30 tests (F5)
- Replace unescaped RegExp with startsWith/slice for path prefix stripping (F7)
- Apply artifact filter recursively via fs.copy filter option (F8)

* feat(manifest): unified skill scanner decoupled from legacy collectors
Add collectSkills() that recursively walks module trees to discover
type:skill directories anywhere, replacing the band-aid detection
inside collectWorkflows(). Legacy collectors now skip claimed dirs.
scanInstalledModules recognizes skill-only modules.
Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.6 <noreply@anthropic.com>
* fix(manifest): address PR review findings from triage
- Add missing skillClaimedDirs guard to getAgentsFromDir (F1)
- Add skills to this.files[] in collectSkills (F2)
- Add test for type:skill inside workflows/ dir (F5)
- Warn on malformed workflow.md parse in skill dirs (F6)
- Add skills count to generateManifests return value (F9)
- Remove redundant \r? from regex after line normalization (F10)
- Normalize path.relative to forward slashes for cross-platform (F12)
- Enforce directory name as skill canonicalId, warn if manifest overrides (F13)

* feat: add pi coding agent as supported platform
Add pi (provider-agnostic terminal-native AI coding agent) to
platform-codes.yaml with native skills format output to .pi/skills/.
Pi follows the open Agent Skills specification and uses the same
subdirectory/SKILL.md structure that BMAD already generates for
other platforms.
Fixes#1853
* fix: address PR review comments for Pi test suite
- Assert template_type === 'default' to pin config contract
- Verify Pi appears in getAvailableIdes() list
- Test detect() returns false before install, true after
- Parse frontmatter between --- delimiters instead of regex on full file
- Assert description is present and non-empty
- Assert frontmatter contains only name and description keys
- Validate body content is non-empty with expected activation instructions
- Add reinstall/upgrade coverage (rerun setup over existing output)
- Move temp directory cleanup to finally block
* feat(skills): migrate Roo Code installer to native skills format
Move Roo Code from legacy `.roo/commands/` flat files to native
`.roo/skills/{skill-name}/SKILL.md` directory output. Verified
skill discovery in Roo Code v3.51 with 43 skills installed.

* test(skills): add native skills tests for Claude Code, Codex, and Cursor
Add dedicated test suites covering config validation, fresh install,
legacy cleanup, and ancestor conflict detection for Claude Code, Codex
CLI, and Cursor. Updates migration checklist to reflect verified status.
84 assertions now pass (up from 50).
Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.6 <noreply@anthropic.com>
* test(skills): add Roo Code reinstall/upgrade test
Verify that running Roo setup over existing skills output succeeds
and preserves SKILL.md output. Checks off the last Roo checklist item.

* feat(skills): migrate GitHub Copilot to config-driven native skills
Replace 699-line custom installer with config-driven skill_format.
Output moves from .github/agents/ + .github/prompts/ to
.github/skills/{skill-name}/SKILL.md. Legacy cleanup strips BMAD
markers from copilot-instructions.md and removes old directories.

Move Trae installer from .trae/rules to .trae/skills with SKILL.md
directory output. Add legacy cleanup and 9 test assertions.
* feat(skills): migrate KiloCoder to config-driven native skills
Replace 269-line custom kilo.js installer with config-driven entry in
platform-codes.yaml targeting .kilocode/skills/ with skill_format: true.
- Add installer config: target_dir, skill_format, template_type, legacy_targets
- Add cleanupKiloModes() to strip BMAD modes from .kilocodemodes on cleanup
- Remove kilo.js from manager.js customFiles and Kilo-specific result handling
- Delete tools/cli/installers/lib/ide/kilo.js
- Add test Suite 22: 11 assertions (config, install, legacy cleanup, modes, reinstall)
- Update migration checklist with verified results

* feat(skills): migrate Gemini CLI to config-driven native skills
Replace TOML-based .gemini/commands output with native SKILL.md output
in .gemini/skills/. Gemini CLI confirms native skills support per
geminicli.com/docs/cli/skills/.
- Update platform-codes.yaml: target_dir, skill_format, legacy_targets
- Add test Suite 23: 9 assertions (config, install, legacy, reinstall)
- Add Gemini CLI section to migration checklist
Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.6 <noreply@anthropic.com>
* feat(skills): migrate iFlow, QwenCoder, and Rovo Dev to native skills
Complete the native skills migration for all remaining platforms:
- iFlow: .iflow/commands → .iflow/skills (config change)
- QwenCoder: .qwen/commands → .qwen/skills (config change)
- Rovo Dev: replace 257-line custom rovodev.js with config-driven
.rovodev/skills, add cleanupRovoDevPrompts() for prompts.yml cleanup
All platforms now use config-driven native skills. No custom installer
files remain. Manager.js customFiles array is now empty.
- Add test suites 24-26: 20 new assertions (173 total)
- Update migration checklist: all summary gates passed
- Delete tools/cli/installers/lib/ide/rovodev.js

* fix(installer): preserve bmad-os-* skills during cleanup
The cleanupTarget method removed all entries starting with "bmad" from
IDE skills directories, which would also wipe version-controlled
bmad-os-* skills from the BMAD-METHOD repo. Add exclusion for the
bmad-os- prefix so those skills survive reinstalls.
* docs: flag all unverified platforms for manual IDE testing
Add NEEDS MANUAL IDE VERIFICATION to KiloCoder, Gemini CLI, iFlow,
QwenCoder, and Rovo Dev checklists. CodeBuddy, Crush, and Trae already
had the flag.
* fix(installer): suspend Kilo Code and add verified Gemini/Crush results
Kilo Code does not support the Agent Skills standard — the migration
from modes+workflows to skills was based on a false fork assumption.
- Add suspended field to platform-codes.yaml, hiding Kilo from the IDE
picker and blocking setup with a clear message
- Fail the installer early (before writing _bmad/) if all selected IDEs
are suspended, protecting existing installations from being corrupted
- Still clean up legacy Kilo artifacts (.kilocodemodes, .kilocode/workflows)
when users switch to a different IDE
- Mark Crush and Gemini CLI as manually verified (both work end-to-end)
- Replace Suite 22 install tests with suspended-behavior tests (7 assertions)
* docs: update KiloCoder checklist to reflect suspended status
* fix(skills): add canonicalIds for BMM research and PRD workflows
Drop the bmm module prefix from 6 workflow skill names so they
install as bmad-create-prd, bmad-domain-research, etc. instead of
bmad-bmm-create-prd, bmad-bmm-domain-research, etc.
* fix(installer): address PR review findings from automated reviewers
Triage of 18 findings from Augment and CodeRabbit reviews on PR #1841:
Source code fixes:
- Exclude bmad-os-* from findAncestorConflict to match cleanupTarget
- Wrap cleanupCopilotInstructions in try/catch (best-effort, not fatal)
- Wrap suspended-platform cleanup in try/catch (failure boundary)
- Clean up temp backup dirs in catch block when install aborts
- Normalize IDE keys to lowercase before suspended lookup
- Delete dead loadCustomInstallerFiles method and stale references
- Rename "Roo Cline" to "Roo Code" in both platform-codes.yaml files
- Fix Gemini CLI package name (@google/gemini-cli, not @anthropic-ai)
Test improvements:
- Add name/frontmatter invariant check to 6 missing platform suites
- Assert stale bmad-architect skill is removed after cleanup

* feat(skills): add canonical bmad- naming via skill manifests
Add bmad-skill-manifest.yaml sidecars to all 38 capabilities (tasks,
agents, workflows) declaring canonicalId as the single source of truth
for skill names. Update Claude Code and Codex installers to prefer
canonicalId over path-derived names, with graceful fallback.
- 24 manifest files covering 38 capabilities
- New shared skill-manifest.js utility for manifest loading
- resolveSkillName() in path-utils.js bridges manifest → installer
- All command generators propagate canonicalId through CSV manifests
- Drops bmm module prefix from all user-facing skill names

* feat(skills): claude-code installer outputs .claude/skills/<name>/SKILL.md
Refactor the config-driven installer to emit Agent Skills Open Standard
format for Claude Code: directory-per-skill with SKILL.md entrypoint,
unquoted YAML frontmatter, and full canonical names.

* refactor(installer): migrate codex to config-driven pipeline
Delete the custom codex.js installer (441 lines) and route Codex
through the config-driven pipeline via platform-codes.yaml. This
fixes 7 task/tool descriptions that were generic due to bypassing
manifests, and eliminates duplicate transformToSkillFormat code.
Key changes:
- Add codex entry to platform-codes.yaml with skill_format + legacy_targets
- Remove codex from custom installer list in manager.js
- Add installCustomAgentLauncher() to config-driven for custom agent support
- Add detect() override for skill_format platforms (bmad-prefix check)
- Set configDir from target_dir for base-class detect() compatibility

The installation component tests walked up the filesystem looking for a
pre-installed _bmad directory, which exists locally but not in CI. Replace
findInstalledBmadDir() with createTestBmadFixture() that creates a minimal
temp directory with fake compiled agents, making tests fully self-contained.

* fix(workflows): remove ambiguous with-argument from help task chaining
The "with argument" clause in 7 workflow completion steps caused LLMs
to interpret "Read fully and follow: help.md with argument X" as a
skill/function invocation rather than a file-read instruction. Drop the
clause entirely — help.md already infers the completed workflow from
the preceding "[Workflow] complete." text in conversation context.
Closes#1637
* fix(workflows): correct broken qa/automate file references
The QA workflow was renamed to qa-generate-e2e-tests but three files
still referenced the old qa/automate path, breaking CI file-ref
validation.
* fix(test): update QA agent test to match renamed workflow path
The workflow path changed from qa/automate to qa-generate-e2e-tests
but the installation component test was not updated to match.

* fix: restore agent files accidentally modified in Docusaurus merge
Restores 25 agent files to their pre-merge state:
- Trigger format with shortcuts (WS, CH, BP, etc.) restored
- Fuzzy matching syntax restored
- BMB module: restores separate agent-builder, module-builder,
workflow-builder agents; removes consolidated bmad-builder
Also updates test to match restored trigger format.
Note: Schema validation needs update in follow-up commit.
* fix: normalize trigger fuzzy match format for schema validation
- Add dashes to fuzzy match text to match kebab-case triggers
- Add missing 'chat' kebab in CH triggers (CH or chat or fuzzy match on chat)
- Relax schema to allow 1-3 char shortcuts and skip shortcut derivation check
- Remove compound-wrong-shortcut test fixture (no longer validated)
All 24 agent files now pass schema validation.
* feat: add documentation website with Docusaurus build pipeline
