Updated installation approach to use local repository paths instead of incorrect GitHub links:
**New Local Installation Script (install-bmad.sh):**
- Copies complete BMAD system from local repository to project
- Installs both bmad-system/ and bmad-agent/ directories
- Creates CLAUDE.md reference file in project root
- Generates project-specific configuration
- Automatic installation verification
- Clear next steps guidance
**Installation Process:**
1. Copy install-bmad.sh from BMAD repository to project directory
2. Run ./install-bmad.sh to install complete BMAD system
3. Creates .bmad/ directory with all system files and agents
4. Creates CLAUDE.md reference file for persistent Claude Code integration
**Files Copied to Projects:**
- Complete bmad-system/ documentation and modules
- Complete bmad-agent/ personas, tasks, checklists, templates
- Project-specific configuration (project-config.yml)
- CLAUDE.md reference guide for Claude Code sessions
**Updated Documentation:**
- README.md: Local installation instructions instead of GitHub links
- bmad-system/README.md: Complete installation process with file structure
- CLAUDE.md: Persistent reference guide for Claude Code sessions
**Usage Pattern:**
1. Download/clone BMAD-METHOD repository locally
2. Copy install-bmad.sh to your project
3. Run installation script
4. Reference CLAUDE.md in Claude Code sessions
5. Claude reads .bmad/ files for BMAD-powered development
The Enhanced BMAD System now has a complete local installation
system that works correctly with downloaded repositories.
