feat(bmm): Add bug-tracking workflows - built-in Jira-lite for AI agents
...
Adds three human-in-the-loop workflows for tracking bugs and features:
- bug-tracking (triage): Converts informal bugs.md → structured bugs.yaml
- implement: Executes fixes with user confirmation at each step
- verify: Closes items after human testing confirms resolution
Key features:
- Built-in Jira-lite: No external tools needed for issue tracking
- Human-in-the-loop: User confirms routing, approach, and verification
- Production API sync: Framework for fetching bug reports from app database
- Dual-file system: bugs.md (human input) + bugs.yaml (agent metadata)
- Severity/complexity routing matrix with auto-routing logic
- Documentation impact assessment (PRD/Architecture/UX triggers)
Workflow integrations:
- sprint-planning: Loads bugs.yaml, tracks feature-to-story mappings
- sprint-status: Shows bug/feature counts, recommends verify for pending items
- story-done: Syncs related bugs/features to [IMPLEMENTED] when story completes
- retrospective: Closes epic-linked bugs/features when epic is marked done
Reference implementation includes:
- Database schema for in-app bug reporting (Drizzle ORM example)
- API endpoints for sync workflow (GET pending, POST mark-synced)
- UI component examples (Svelte 5, React)

fix(bmm): remove stale 'drafted' story state from docs and workflows
...
The `drafted` story state is no longer used since create-story now sets
status directly to `ready-for-dev`. This PR removes all references to
this legacy state from BMM documentation and workflow files.
Changes:
- Remove `drafted` from story status definitions and state machine docs
- Remove dead story-context file detection (story-context files no longer exist)
- Replace "draft" verb with "create" in story-related messaging
- Add legacy `drafted` → `ready-for-dev` migration in sprint-status
- Clarify that validate-create-story is optional and doesn't change status
- Document story handoff sequence: create-story → (optional) validate → dev-story
Story lifecycle is now: backlog → ready-for-dev → in-progress → review → done
Closes #1089

refactor: Major workflow enhancements - time estimates prohibition, progressive epic creation, and workflow simplification
...
## Key Changes
### 1. Time Estimate Prohibition (All Modules)
- Added critical warnings against providing ANY time estimates (hours/days/weeks/months)
- Acknowledges AI has fundamentally changed development speed
- Applied to 33 workflow instruction files across BMB, BMGD, BMM, and CIS modules
- Updated workflow creation guide with prohibition guidelines
### 2. Enhanced Epic Creation Workflow
- Added intelligent UPDATE vs CREATE mode detection
- Detects available context (UX, Architecture, Domain brief, Product brief)
- Progressive enhancement: creates basic epics, then enriches with UX/Architecture
- Living document approach with continuous updates
- Added 305 lines of sophisticated workflow logic
### 3. Workflow Status Initialization Refactoring
- Simplified from 893 to 318 lines (65% reduction)
- Streamlined state detection: CLEAN, PLANNING, ACTIVE, LEGACY, UNCLEAR
- Cleaner path selection and initialization logic
- Removed redundant complexity while maintaining functionality
### 4. Workflow Path Updates
- Updated all 4 workflow paths (enterprise/method × brownfield/greenfield)
- Added multiple optional epic creation steps at different phases:
- After PRD (basic structure)
- After UX Design (with interaction context)
- After Architecture (final with full context)
- Changed PRD output description from "with epics and stories" to "with FRs and NFRs"
### 5. Architecture & Innovation Updates
- Made epics input optional in architecture workflow (falls back to PRD FRs)
- Updated innovation strategy phases to remove time-based language
- Phases now: Immediate Impact → Foundation Building → Scale & Optimization
### Files Changed
- 33 instruction files updated with time estimate prohibition
- 2 workflow.yaml files updated (create-epics-and-stories, architecture)
- 4 workflow path YAML files updated
- 1 workflow creation guide enhanced
This refactor significantly improves workflow intelligence, removes harmful time-based planning assumptions, and creates more adaptive, context-aware workflows that better leverage AI capabilities.

feat(workflows): Implement intelligent file discovery protocol and Phase 4 BMGD workflows
...
## Core Workflow Engine Enhancements
### discover_inputs Protocol (MAJOR)
- Added reusable `discover_inputs` protocol to workflow.xml for intelligent file loading
- Supports three loading strategies:
- FULL_LOAD: Load all shards for PRD, Architecture, UX (changed pattern from /index.md to /*/*.md)
- SELECTIVE_LOAD: Load specific shard via template variable (e.g., epic-{{epic_num}}.md)
- INDEX_GUIDED: Load index, analyze TOC, intelligently load relevant docs (with "DO NOT BE LAZY" mandate)
- Auto-discovers whole vs sharded documents with proper fallback
- Provides transparent reporting of loaded content with file counts
- Invoked via <invoke-protocol name="discover_inputs" /> tag in workflow instructions
### Advanced Elicitation Improvements
- Renamed adv-elicit.xml to advanced-elicitation.xml for clarity
- Updated all references across agents and commands
### Shard Document Tool Enhancement
- Added Step 6: Handle Original Document with three options:
- [d] Delete - Remove original (recommended, prevents confusion)
- [m] Move to archive - Backup original to archive folder
- [k] Keep - Warning about defeating sharding purpose
- Prevents issue where both whole and sharded versions exist, confusing discover_inputs protocol
## BMM Module - Input File Pattern Standardization
### Phase 1 - Analysis (1 workflow)
- product-brief: Added load_strategy (FULL_LOAD for research/brainstorming, INDEX_GUIDED for document_project)
- Updated instructions.md to use invoke-protocol, replaced manual fuzzy matching
### Phase 2 - Planning (4 workflows)
- prd: Added load_strategy, updated instructions to reference {product_brief_content}, {research_content}
- create-ux-design: Added load_strategy, removed fuzzy matching from instructions
- tech-spec: Added load_strategy for brownfield context discovery
- All epics patterns updated to support SELECTIVE_LOAD for specific epic shards
### Phase 3 - Solutioning (2 workflows)
- architecture: Added load_strategy, updated instructions to use pre-loaded {prd_content}, {epics_content}, {ux_design_content}
- solutioning-gate-check: Added load_strategy, replaced manual discovery with protocol invocation
### Phase 4 - Implementation (8 workflows)
- code-review: Added load_strategy, fixed sharded patterns to /*/*.md, added step 1.5 for protocol
- correct-course: Added complete input_file_patterns section (was missing), added step 0.5
- create-story: Added load_strategy, updated to SELECTIVE_LOAD for epics, added step 1.5
- dev-story: Added complete input_file_patterns section (was missing), added step 0.5
- epic-tech-context: Added load_strategy, updated PRD extraction to use {prd_content}, added step 1.5
- retrospective: Added load_strategy for architecture/prd (FULL_LOAD), epics (SELECTIVE_LOAD), added step 0.5
- sprint-planning: Fixed sharded pattern to load ALL epics (/*/*.md), added step 0.5
- story-context: Added load_strategy, updated doc collection to reference pre-loaded content, added step 1.5
### Sprint Artifacts Path Corrections
- story-done: Added missing sprint_artifacts variable, fixed sprint_status path from {context_dir} to {sprint_artifacts}
- story-ready: Added missing sprint_artifacts variable
- story-context: Fixed undefined {context_dir} -> {sprint_artifacts}
- correct-course: Added sprint_artifacts and sprint_status variables
## BMGD Module - Phase 4 Production Workflows (NEW)
Added complete Phase 4 implementation workflows for game development:
- code-review: Senior developer review for completed game features
- correct-course: Sprint change management for game projects
- create-story: Story generation for game mechanics/features
- dev-story: Feature implementation workflow
- epic-tech-context: Technical spec generation per game epic
- retrospective: Epic completion review and lessons learned
- sprint-planning: Game development sprint status tracking
- story-context: Dynamic context assembly for game stories
- story-done: Story completion workflow
- story-ready: Story readiness workflow
All BMGD workflows follow BMM patterns with game-specific adaptations.
## Agent Updates
### BMM Agents
- Updated all 7 BMM agents (analyst, architect, dev, pm, sm, tea, tech-writer, ux-designer)
- Standardized web bundle configurations
### BMGD Agents
- Updated 4 game development agents (game-architect, game-designer, game-dev, game-scrum-master)
- Aligned with BMM agent structure
### CIS Agents
- Updated 5 creative intelligence agents for consistency
## Documentation & Configuration
- Updated CHANGELOG.md with Phase 4 workflow additions
- Updated files-manifest.csv and task-manifest.csv
- Updated .claude commands for all agents
- Fixed formatting issues from previous commits
## Breaking Changes
NONE - All changes are backward compatible. Workflows without input_file_patterns continue to work.
Workflows with input_file_patterns now benefit from intelligent auto-loading.
## Migration Notes
Existing workflows can gradually adopt discover_inputs protocol by:
1. Adding load_strategy to existing input_file_patterns in workflow.yaml
2. Adding <invoke-protocol name="discover_inputs" /> step in instructions.md
3. Replacing manual file loading with references to {pattern_name_content} variables

feat: Add documentation guides, simplify folder structure, and major workflow refactoring
...
Created two comprehensive guides for v6 features:
**docs/agent-customization-guide.md**
- Complete guide for customizing agent names, personas, memories, and behaviors
- Update-safe customization via bmad/_cfg/agents/ configuration files
- Real-world examples (TDD setup, multilingual agents, custom workflows)
- Troubleshooting and best practices
**docs/web-bundles-gemini-gpt-guide.md**
- Comprehensive guide for using BMad agents in Gemini Gems and Custom GPTs
- Critical setup rules with exact configuration text required
- Cost-saving strategy: web planning → local implementation (60-80% savings)
- Platform comparison (Gemini Gems strongly recommended over Custom GPTs)
- Complete workflow examples showing full planning-to-implementation cycle
- Team bundle guidance (Gemini 2.5 Pro+ only)
**README.md updates**
- Added prominent links in v6 Core Enhancements section
- Created new "Customization & Sharing" documentation category
- Web Bundles feature highlighted with direct guide link
**Unified output folder structure across all modules:**
**Before (confusing):**
- output_folder: Main docs
- game_design_docs: Separate design folder
- tech_docs: Separate technical folder
- dev_ephemeral_location: Separate ephemeral folder outside docs
**After (simplified):**
- output_folder: Single location for ALL AI-generated artifacts (default: "docs")
- Clearer prompt: "Where should AI Generated Artifacts be saved?"
- sprint_artifacts: Phase 4 ephemeral content now WITHIN output_folder
- BMM: {output_folder}/stories (stories, context, reports)
- BMGD: {output_folder}/sprint-artifacts
- No longer in separate {bmad_folder}-ephemeral location
**Benefits:**
- One clear location for all planning artifacts (PRD, Architecture, UX, etc.)
- Phase 4 ephemeral items logically grouped within output folder
- Eliminated confusing separate folder proliferation
- sprint_artifacts now configurable per module
**Files changed:**
- src/core/_module-installer/install-config.yaml
- src/modules/bmm/_module-installer/install-config.yaml
- src/modules/bmgd/_module-installer/install-config.yaml
**Also cleaned up BMGD config:**
- Renamed: specified_framework → primary_platform (clearer naming)
- Removed: unused data_path variable
Replaced old "project_level" (0-4) system with new "selected_track" terminology:
- **quick-flow**: Bug fixes and small features (replaces Level 0-1)
- **bmad-method**: Full planning track (replaces Level 2-3)
- **enterprise-bmad-method**: Extended planning (replaces Level 4)
**Core workflow updates:**
- solutioning-gate-check: Complete rewrite of validation logic for track-based artifacts
- architecture: Updated context detection, error handling, and messaging for tracks
- workflow-init: Updated artifact detection patterns for track-based paths
- All workflow status paths updated (method-greenfield, method-brownfield, enterprise-*)
Unified variable naming conventions across all workflows:
- {output_folder} → {output-folder} (hyphenated format)
- {dev_ephemeral_location} → {sprint_artifacts} (clearer purpose)
- Hardcoded status file paths → {workflow_status_file} variable
Fixed corrupted variable patterns throughout workflow files:
- {output*folder} → {output-folder}
- {ephemeral*location} → {sprint_artifacts}
- \_prd* → *prd* (escaped underscore artifacts)
- **\*\***\_\_\_**\*\*** → proper field placeholders
Affected patterns included malformed glob patterns, template variables, and markdown formatting artifacts from previous edits.
**Architecture workflow (create-architecture):**
- Fixed: "Decision Architecture" → "Create Architecture" (consistent naming)
- Improved PRD not found handling with exit/continue options
- Better user guidance when running standalone vs. within workflow path
- Removed hardcoded Level checks, now track-aware
- Enhanced validation checklist formatting (□ → - [])
- Typo fixes: "mulitple" → "multiple"
**Solutioning gate check:**
- Complete validation logic rewrite for track-based system
- Removed Level-specific artifact expectations
- Simplified document discovery (track determines what exists)
- Better analysis prompts and user feedback
**Workflow-init:**
- Updated artifact detection patterns for new folder structure
- Fixed corrupt glob patterns throughout
- Better sprint_artifacts location detection
- Improved workflow path assignment logic
**Various workflows:**
- Consistent variable naming across 40+ workflow files
- Improved error messages and user guidance
- Better markdown formatting (checkboxes, lists)
- Removed redundant validation criteria files (now inline)
Removed duplicate BMGD 4-production workflows (12 workflows):
- code-review, correct-course, create-story, dev-story
- epic-tech-context, retrospective, sprint-planning
- story-context, story-done, story-ready
**Why:** BMGD now uses shared BMM Phase 4 implementation workflows
**Benefit:** Single source of truth, no duplication to maintain
Also removed:
- validation-criteria.yaml (validation now inline in instructions)
- architecture-patterns.yaml references (patterns now managed differently)
- AUDIT-REPORT.md files (stale audit artifacts)
**BMB workflows:**
- Updated checklists for workflow and module creation
- Improved agent architecture documentation
- Minor instruction clarifications
**Core brainstorming workflow:**
- Updated README with usage examples
- Enhanced instructions and template clarity
- Better integration with other modules
**BMM installer:**
- Updated for track-based system
- sprint_artifacts configuration
**Tech Writer agent:**
- Minor configuration update for documentation workflows
Removed 200+ files that should not be in repository:
- Installed agent markdown files (analyst, architect, dev, pm, sm, tea, etc.)
- Complete workflow instruction copies
- Documentation duplicates (quick-start, agents-guide, workflows-*)
- Test architecture knowledge base (22 files, 14,000+ lines)
- Configuration files (config.yaml, team definitions)
These are generated during installation and should not be version controlled.
Removed 21 pre-generated XML bundles:
- BMM agents (analyst, architect, dev, pm, sm, tea, tech-writer, ux-designer)
- BMGD agents (game-architect, game-designer, game-dev, game-scrum-master)
- CIS agents (brainstorming-coach, creative-problem-solver, etc.)
- Team bundles (team-fullstack, team-gamedev, creative-squad)
**Why:** Users should generate fresh bundles via `npm run bundle` to get latest changes and customizations.
- **2 new documentation files** (comprehensive guides)
- **98 source files modified** (299 insertions, 6,567 deletions)
- **3 installer config files simplified** (major folder structure improvement)
- **200+ .bmad/ artifacts removed** (should not be in repo)
- **21 web-bundle files removed** (users regenerate as needed)
- **12 duplicate workflows removed** (BMGD consolidation)
- **40+ workflows updated** (track system, variable standardization, corruption fixes)

feat: add universal document sharding support with dual-strategy loading
...
Implement comprehensive document sharding system across all BMM workflows enabling 90%+ token savings for large multi-epic projects through selective loading optimization.
## Document Sharding System
### Core Features
- **Universal Support**: All 12 BMM workflows (Phase 1-4) handle both whole and sharded documents
- **Dual Loading Strategy**: Full Load (Phase 1-3) vs Selective Load (Phase 4)
- **Automatic Discovery**: Workflows detect format transparently (whole → sharded priority)
- **Efficiency Optimization**: 90%+ token reduction for 10+ epic projects in Phase 4
### Implementation Details
**Phase 1-3 Workflows (7 workflows) - Full Load Strategy:**
- product-brief, prd, gdd, create-ux-design, tech-spec, architecture, solutioning-gate-check
- Load entire sharded documents when present
- Transparent to user experience
- Better organization for large projects
**Phase 4 Workflows (5 workflows) - Selective Load Strategy:**
- sprint-planning (Full Load exception - needs all epics)
- epic-tech-context, create-story, story-context, code-review (Selective Load)
- Load ONLY the specific epic needed (e.g., epic-3.md for Epic 3 stories)
- Massive efficiency: Skip loading 9 other epics in 10-epic project
### Workflow Enhancements
**Added to all workflows:**
- `input_file_patterns` in workflow.yaml with wildcard discovery
- Document Discovery section in instructions.md
- Support for sharded index + section files
- Brownfield `docs/index.md` support
**Pattern standardization:**
```yaml
input_file_patterns:
document:
whole: "{output_folder}/*doc*.md"
sharded: "{output_folder}/*doc*/index.md"
sharded_single: "{output_folder}/*doc*/section-{{id}}.md" # Selective load
```
### Retrospective Workflow Major Overhaul
Transformed retrospective into immersive, interactive team experience:
**Epic Discovery Priority (Fixed):**
- Priority 1: Check sprint-status.yaml for last completed epic
- Priority 2: Ask user directly
- Priority 3: Scan stories folder (last resort)
**New Capabilities:**
- Deep story analysis: Extract dev notes, mistakes, review feedback, lessons learned
- Previous retro integration: Track action items, verify lessons applied
- Significant change detection: Alert when discoveries require epic updates
- Intent-based facilitation: Natural conversation vs scripted phrases
- Party mode protocol: Clear speaker identification (Name (Role): dialogue)
- Team dynamics: Drama, disagreements, diverse perspectives, authentic conflict
**Structure:**
- 12 whole-number steps (no decimals)
- Highly interactive with constant user engagement
- Cross-references previous retro for accountability
- Synthesizes patterns across all stories
- Detects architectural assumption changes
## Documentation
**Created:**
- `docs/document-sharding-guide.md` - Comprehensive 300+ line guide
- What is sharding, when to use it (token thresholds)
- How sharding works (discovery system, loading strategies)
- Using shard-doc tool
- Full Load vs Selective Load patterns
- Complete examples and troubleshooting
- Custom workflow integration patterns
**Updated:**
- `README.md` - Added Document Sharding feature section
- `docs/index.md` - Added under Advanced Topics → Optimization
- `src/modules/bmm/workflows/README.md` - Added sharding section with usage
- `src/modules/bmb/workflows/create-workflow/workflow-creation-guide.md` - Added complete implementation patterns for workflow builders
**Documentation levels:**
1. Overview (README.md) - Quick feature highlight
2. User guide (BMM workflows README) - Practical usage
3. Reference (document-sharding-guide.md) - Complete details
4. Builder guide (workflow-creation-guide.md) - Implementation patterns
## Efficiency Gains
**Example: 10-Epic Project**
Before sharding:
- epic-tech-context for Epic 3: Load all 10 epics (~50k tokens)
- create-story for Epic 3: Load all 10 epics (~50k tokens)
- story-context for Epic 3: Load all 10 epics (~50k tokens)
After sharding with selective load:
- epic-tech-context for Epic 3: Load Epic 3 only (~5k tokens) = 90% reduction
- create-story for Epic 3: Load Epic 3 only (~5k tokens) = 90% reduction
- story-context for Epic 3: Load Epic 3 only (~5k tokens) = 90% reduction
## Breaking Changes
None - fully backward compatible. Workflows work with existing whole documents.
## Files Changed
**Workflows Updated (25 files):**
- 7 Phase 1-3 workflows: Added full load sharding support
- 5 Phase 4 workflows: Added selective load sharding support
- 1 retrospective workflow: Complete overhaul with sharding support
**Documentation (5 files):**
- Created: document-sharding-guide.md
- Updated: README.md, docs/index.md, BMM workflows README, BMB workflow-creation-guide
- Removed: Old conversion report (obsolete)
## Future Extensibility
- BMB workflows now aware of sharding patterns
- Custom modules can easily implement sharding support
- Standard patterns documented for consistency
- No need to explain concept in future development
