* 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(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)

Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.6 <noreply@anthropic.com>
* fix: strengthen step-01 guardrails against plan-shaped intent bypass

* fix: preserve standalone module provenance in path-utils serializers
toDashName/toUnderscoreName collapsed core and standalone to the same
filename, making parseDashName/parseUnderscoreName unable to round-trip
standalone agents. Split the branches so standalone gets a distinct
token (e.g., bmad-agent-standalone-fred.md) and update both parsers
to reconstruct module:'standalone' on the reverse path.

* 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.

* feat(tasks): convert review-adversarial-general from XML task to native skill
Convert the simplest core task (review-adversarial-general.xml) from
type:task XML format to type:skill markdown format. This establishes
the pattern for converting remaining XML tasks to self-contained skills.
- Convert XML task to workflow.md with frontmatter, role, execution steps
- Add type:skill manifest for verbatim directory copying
- Extend manifest-generator getTasksFromDir to recurse into subdirectories
and detect type:skill entries (mirrors existing workflow skill detection)
- Update cross-references in quick-dev-new-preview, quick-dev, quick-spec
- Update module-help.csv to use skill: prefix
* refactor: replace file path references with skill name invocations
Consumers of review-adversarial-general now invoke by skill name
instead of loading via _bmad/ file path. Removes the indirection
variable from frontmatter and inlines the skill name directly.
* refactor(installer): scan tasks/ for type:skill entries
Teach collectWorkflows to also scan the tasks/ subdirectory for
type:skill entries. Skills can live anywhere in the source tree —
the workflow scanner just needs to look in more places.
* fix: update stale task terminology to skill after format conversion
Address review findings from PR #1857: replace remaining "task"
references with "skill" in workflow steps and test documentation.

* feat(skills): add type:skill manifest for verbatim skill directory copying
Introduce `type: skill` in bmad-skill-manifest.yaml to signal the
installer to copy entire skill directories verbatim into IDE skill
directories, replacing the launcher-based approach.
Changes:
- skill-manifest.js: fix single-entry detection for type-only manifests,
add getArtifactType export
- manifest-generator.js: collect type:skill entries separately, write
skill-manifest.csv, derive canonicalId from directory name
- _config-driven.js: add installVerbatimSkills with YAML-safe SKILL.md
generation, stale file cleanup, and warning on parse failures
- Rename quick-dev-new-preview to bmad-quick-dev-new-preview so
directory name is the canonical ID
- Update workflow.md installed_path to reference IDE skill base directory

* feat(skills): add install_to_bmad flag and skill: help catalog reference
Add install_to_bmad flag to skill manifests (default true) enabling

workflow-file column. Fix stale quick-dev-new-preview directory
references in agent YAML and help catalog.

* 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

* 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

* 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

* fix(installer): refuse install when ancestor dir has BMAD commands
Claude Code inherits slash commands from parent directories, so
installing into a nested project when a parent already has .claude/commands
with bmad-* files causes duplicate entries in the autocomplete.
Add ancestor_conflict_check flag (enabled for claude-code) that walks
up the directory tree before install. If BMAD files are found in an
ancestor target_dir, the installer refuses with an actionable error.
Also fix IdeManager.setup() to propagate handler success status instead
of unconditionally returning success: true.
* Address code review feedback from CodeRabbit and Augment
- Move "Setting up..." log after conflict check so it only shows when
install will proceed
- Fix rm command: add -rf flags and correct quoting for glob outside quotes
- Improve error wording: "ancestor installation" instead of misleading
"ancestor directory"
- Use case-insensitive startsWith for bmad file detection (macOS/Windows)
- Document ancestor_conflict_check in the installer config schema

* fix(opencode): use mode: all in agent template, remove name frontmatter, fix directory names
- Replace name: '{{name}}' with mode: all in opencode-agent.md
mode: all enables both Tab-key agent switching in the TUI and @subagent
invocation via the Task tool (mode: primary blocked subagent use)
- Remove name: '{{name}}' from opencode-task/tool/workflow/workflow-yaml templates
OpenCode derives command name from filename, not from a name frontmatter field;
the bare {{name}} value was overriding the bmad- prefixed filename causing
name collisions with built-in OpenCode commands (fixes#1762)
- Fix deprecated singular directory names in platform-codes.yaml:
.opencode/agent -> .opencode/agents, .opencode/command -> .opencode/commands
- Add legacy_targets migration: cleanup() now removes stale bmad-* files from
old singular directories on reinstall so existing users don't get duplicates

* fix(installer): remove double-escaping of quotes in CSV manifest pipeline
cleanForCSV() pre-escaped " to "" before storing in memory, then
escapeCsv() escaped again at CSV write time. After csv-parse round-trip

* fix(installer): add custom Rovo Dev installer with prompts.yml generation
Rovo Dev CLI requires a .rovodev/prompts.yml manifest to register prompts
for /prompts access. The config-driven installer was writing .md files but
never generating this manifest, so /prompts showed nothing.
- Create custom rovodev.js installer extending BaseIdeSetup
- Generate prompts.yml indexing all written workflow files
- Merge with existing user entries (only touch bmad- prefixed entries)
- Remove stale rovo entry from tools/platform-codes.yaml

The /prompts list in Rovo Dev only shows descriptions, making it hard

so users see e.g. "bmad-bmm-create-prd - PRD workflow..." instead of
just the description text.
* refactor(installer): address review findings in Rovo Dev installer
- Hoist toDashPath import to module top level
- Extract _collectPromptEntries helper replacing 3 duplicated loops
- Remove unused detectionPaths (detect() is overridden)
- Guard generatePromptsYml when writtenFiles is empty
- Align cleanup() with detect() predicate (remove any bmad-*, not just .md)
- Use BaseIdeSetup abstractions (this.pathExists/readFile/writeFile) in cleanup()
- Update loadHandlers() JSDoc to include rovodev.js

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
- Fix codex.js hardcoding preferred: true in constructor
- Remove stale "3 preferred tools" count from ui.js JSDoc
- Update docs to list only Claude Code and Cursor as recommended
- Update docs/index.md popular tools to Claude Code, Cursor, Codex CLI
- Update README to reflect V6 stable release and platform positioning
- Emphasize BMad Method as a module within the Module Ecosystem
- Simplify quick start and module sections
- Add Discord, GitHub, and YouTube links to installer next steps
* fix custom install bug
* fix manager.js
* From PR #1624: added empty module.yaml handling (skip + warn) and removed paths from the config to match promptCustomContentSource()
* fix: custom-content quick-update ENOENT, pass --custom-content through, add PR#1624 improvements to allow update installs to work using non-interactive mode
- Move "Module configuration complete" to appear after all customization
prompts finish, not just after defaults are applied
- Change spinner stop message to "Module defaults applied" for clarity
when customization follows; keep "Module configuration complete" for
express mode where no customization prompts follow
- Remove extra blank line before post-install notes
- Wrap spinner loop in try/finally for error safety

* feat(cli): add uninstall command with selective component removal
Add `bmad uninstall` CLI command for clean removal of BMAD installations.
Interactive mode with directory router and component multiselect; non-interactive
`--yes` flag preserves user artifacts by default. Three-phase spinner UX,
manifest-scoped IDE cleanup, GitHub Copilot marker stripping, recursive empty
directory cleanup, and chalk-to-clack migration in copilot handler.
Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.6 <noreply@anthropic.com>
* fix(cli): address code review findings for uninstall command
- Add path traversal guard in uninstallOutputFolder (resolve + startsWith)
- Thread silent flag through to cleanupCopilotInstructions
- Trim text input before path.resolve in directory prompt
- DRY uninstall() by delegating to extracted helper methods
- Validate projectDir existence before probing for BMAD
- Use fs.rmdir instead of fs.remove in removeEmptyParents (race safety)

* feat(cli): add destructive action warning and confirm before uninstall
Move warning box after component selection and add a confirmation prompt
defaulting to No, so users see the irreversibility warning right before
the point of no return. Non-interactive --yes mode skips both.

* feat: tea automation prereq prompts
* fix: addressed PR comments
* docs: added docs on how to set the post install output in the module
* addressed PR request from Brian
Remove hallucinated mode: primary from opencode-agent template - OpenCode
defaults to mode: all and mode: primary does not enable Tab-switching as
the original PR #1556 claimed. Restore the name frontmatter field across
all OpenCode templates to match the standard pattern used by other IDEs.
* fix: remove duplicate 'recompilation complete' message in compile-agents output
The spinner.stop() in compileAgents() already displays this message,
so the additional log.success() call produced a redundant line.
Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.6 <noreply@anthropic.com>
* fix: remove deselected IDE configurations during installer update
When updating an existing installation, IDEs that were previously
configured but unchecked in the new selection are now detected and
cleaned up after user confirmation, mirroring the existing module
removal flow.

* chore: remove unreachable return statements after process.exit calls
Remove 4 dead `return;` statements that immediately follow `process.exit(0)`
calls in install.js. Since process.exit() terminates the process, the
subsequent return statements are unreachable.
Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.6 <noreply@anthropic.com>
* fix: batch directory creation log messages for cleaner installer output
Collect all created directory names during module directory setup and
emit them as a single log message instead of one per directory. This
eliminates the excessive blank-line spacing that @clack/prompts adds
between individual log.message() calls.
Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.6 <noreply@anthropic.com>
* fix: consolidate directory creation output across all modules
Move directory creation logging from ModuleManager.createModuleDirectories
into the installer caller. The method now returns created directory info
instead of logging directly, allowing the installer to batch all module
directories into a single log message under one spinner. Also adds spacing
before the final "Installation complete" status line.

* fix: propagate skipPrompts flag to IDE collectConfiguration calls
The --yes flag (skipPrompts) was not being passed through to IDE handler
collectConfiguration() calls, causing the Codex installer to hang on its
interactive prompt in non-interactive mode (CI/CD, --yes flag).
- Add skipPrompts parameter to collectToolConfigurations() and forward it
to handler.collectConfiguration() options
- Add early return in CodexSetup.collectConfiguration() when skipPrompts
is true, defaulting to global install location
- Guard IDE removal confirmation prompt with skipPrompts check, defaulting
to preserve existing configs (consistent with prompt default: false)
Fixes#1610
Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.6 <noreply@anthropic.com>
* fix: address code review findings from PR #1612
- Restore saved IDE configurations when removal is cancelled or skipped
in non-interactive mode, preventing silent config downgrade (e.g.,
Codex 'project' install reverting to 'global')
- Short-circuit IDE removal block when skipPrompts is true to eliminate
unnecessary warning/cancelled log output in --yes mode
- Add null guard on config.ides before pushing re-added IDEs
- Return empty result object from createModuleDirectories early exits
instead of undefined for a uniform return contract
Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.6 <noreply@anthropic.com>
* fix: guard remaining unguarded prompts with skipPrompts for non-interactive mode
Add skipPrompts guards to 4 remaining unguarded interactive prompts in
installer.js that caused hangs in non-interactive mode (--yes flag):
- Module removal confirmation: preserves modules by default
- Update action selection: defaults to 'update'
- Custom module missing sources: keeps all modules
- Custom module delete confirmation: unreachable via early return
Additional robustness fixes:
- Defensive type-check before .trim() on prompt result (symbol guard)
- Console.log suppression scoped per-IDE instead of global try/finally
- process.exit flush via setImmediate for legacy v4 exit path
- JSDoc updated for new skipPrompts parameter
Follows established pattern from commit f967fdde (IDE skipPrompts guards).

* fix: migrate installer console.warn/error calls to prompts.log API
Replace all user-facing console.warn(), console.error(), and console.log()
calls with their prompts.log.* equivalents for consistent @clack/prompts
styled output across the installer codebase.
- Migrate 13 console.warn/error calls across 5 files to prompts.log.*
- Convert moduleLogger callbacks to async prompts.log.* in installer.js
- Replace blank-line console.log() with prompts.log.message('')
- Add prompts import to 5 files that lacked it
- Remove redundant "Warning:" prefixes (prompts.log.warn adds styling)
- Remove redundant local prompts require in installer.js L454
- Add missing await on logger.log call in manager.js
- Debug-gated console.log calls in manifest-generator.js left as-is

* feat: replace installer spinner with tasks() progress and consolidate summary
Replace the serial spinner during non-interactive install phases with
@clack/prompts tasks() component for clearer progress visibility. The
install flow now uses two tasks() blocks (pre-IDE and post-IDE) with
the IDE setup retaining its own spinner since it may prompt.
- Refactor install phases into tasks() callbacks with message() updates
- Merge next-steps content into the "BMAD is ready to use!" summary note
- Fix spinner.stop() tense: "Reviewing..." → past tense ("reviewed")
- Move directory creation output after tasks() to avoid breaking progress
- Remove dead showInstallSummary() from ui.js
- Harden error handling: try/finally on IDE spinner, safe catch block
Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.6 <noreply@anthropic.com>
* fix: consolidate install messages into single start banner
Combine start and end marketing messages into one banner shown before
installation begins. Remove the post-install end message and its
displayEndMessage() calls — the install summary note now serves as
the final output.

* fix: rename "Module installers" label to "Module directories" in summary
The old script-based module installer pattern was replaced with
declarative directory creation, but the task title and summary label
were never updated to reflect that change.
Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.6 <noreply@anthropic.com>
* feat: add batch module configuration gateway with express/customize modes
Replace N individual "Accept Defaults?" confirm prompts with a single
select gateway ("Express Setup" vs "Customize"). When customizing, a
multiselect shows only modules with configurable options. All others
silently receive defaults via spinner progress.
- Add scanModuleSchemas() to pre-scan module metadata and display names
- Add select/multiselect gateway in collectAllConfigurations()
- Replace per-module confirm with modulesToCustomize Set check
- Suppress UI output during silent default config via _silentConfig flag
- Reorder installer tasks: module dirs before config generation
- Add resolution null guards for edge-case safety
- Cache ModuleManager instance via _getModuleManager() for reuse

* fix: move module directories instead of creating new ones on path change
When users modify a module's directory path during installer update/modify,
the old directory is now moved to the new location instead of creating an
empty directory while leaving the old one (with its documents) behind.
Includes: cross-device fs.move, error handling with fallback, path
normalization, parent/child path guard, and warning when both dirs exist.
Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.6 <noreply@anthropic.com>
* fix: add --yes flag guards to all unguarded prompts in update/modify path
Guard 5 interactive prompts in ui.js that caused the installer to hang
when --yes flag was used with existing installations. Add skipPrompts
field to 3 return objects that were missing it, ensuring installer.js
downstream guards work correctly for all update paths.

* feat: add custom GitHub Copilot installer handler
Adds a dedicated GitHub Copilot handler that generates:
- Agent files with .agent.md extension and enriched descriptions
- Prompt files (.prompt.md) for workflows, tasks, and agent activators
- copilot-instructions.md with project config and agent reference table
Replaces the generic config-driven handler with a custom one that
properly supports Copilot's agent/prompt file conventions.
Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.6 <noreply@anthropic.com>
* fix: escape YAML descriptions and preserve user copilot-instructions
- Escape single quotes in YAML frontmatter descriptions across all prompt
generators (createWorkflowPromptContent, createTechWriterPromptContent,
createAgentActivatorPromptContent) to match createAgentContent behavior
- Make copilot-instructions.md non-destructive using BMAD markers
(<!-- BMAD:START --> / <!-- BMAD:END -->) to preserve user content
- On cleanup, only remove content between markers; skip files without markers
- Back up existing unmarked files before overwriting
Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.6 <noreply@anthropic.com>
* fix: add error handling for CSV read/parse in loadAgentManifest and loadBmadHelp
Wrap file read and csv.parse in try/catch blocks so malformed or
unreadable CSV files gracefully degrade instead of aborting setup.
Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.6 <noreply@anthropic.com>
* fix: use specific detection paths instead of .github configDir
Set configDir to null and use detectionPaths with
.github/copilot-instructions.md and .github/agents/ so the base
detect() doesn't false-positive on every GitHub repo.

* docs: add comments explaining hardcoded bmm/config.yaml in prompts
Clarify that bmm/config.yaml is safe to hardcode in generated prompt
content because these prompts are only created when bmm module data
(bmad-help.csv, agent artifacts) exists.
Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.6 <noreply@anthropic.com>
* fix: guard against missing workflow-file in bmad-help.csv entries
Skip entries where workflow-file is empty/undefined to prevent
workflowFile.endsWith() from throwing during prompt generation.

* fix: guard escapeYamlSingleQuote against undefined input
Default to empty string when value is undefined/null to prevent
replaceAll from throwing on missing CSV fields.

* feat: preserve customised tool permissions across reinstalls
Before this change, reinstalling would overwrite any user-customised
tools arrays in agent and prompt frontmatter with the hardcoded default.
Now the installer reads existing tool permissions from .agent.md and
.prompt.md files before cleanup, and re-applies them to the regenerated
files. Falls back to the default ['read', 'edit', 'search', 'execute']
for new files or files without prior customisation.
Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.6 <noreply@anthropic.com>
* fix: prevent cleanup from stripping copilot-instructions.md markers before generation
The cleanup() method was removing the BMAD marker section from
copilot-instructions.md, leaving user content without markers.
generateCopilotInstructions() then treated the markerless file as
legacy, backed it up, and overwrote user content.
Fix: remove the copilot-instructions.md block from cleanup() entirely.
generateCopilotInstructions() already handles marker-based replacement
in a single read-modify-write pass that correctly preserves user content.

* feat: make agent capabilities data-driven via agent YAML metadata
Replace the hardcoded getAgentCapabilities() map with a data-driven
pipeline. Capabilities are now defined in each .agent.yaml source file,
compiled into the XML output, extracted into agent-manifest.csv by the
manifest generator, and read by the GitHub Copilot handler at install
time. New agents automatically get their capabilities without code
changes.

Removes the security-risky _module-installer pattern (code execution at
install time) in favor of a declarative `directories` key in module.yaml.
The main installer now handles directory creation centrally based on this
config, eliminating per-module installer.js scripts and their CJS/ESM issues.
Changes:
- Delete src/bmm/_module-installer/installer.js
- Delete src/core/_module-installer/installer.js
- Add `directories` key to src/bmm/module.yaml
- Rename runModuleInstaller() -> createModuleDirectories()
- Remove _module-installer from ESLint overrides
- Remove _module-installer from file-ref validator skip dirs
* fix: remove redundant "None" skip option from module selection
The "None - Skip module installation" option was unnecessary since
core is always locked/selected, satisfying the required constraint.
Users can simply press Enter with only core selected to skip modules.
Also removes dead code: selectModules(), getExternalModuleChoices(),
and selectExternalModules() methods that were never called.
Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.6 <noreply@anthropic.com>
* fix: support ESM and .cjs module installers in ModuleManager
Module installer loading now handles three cases:
- .cjs files loaded via require() (always CommonJS regardless of package type)
- .js files loaded via dynamic import() (works for both CJS and ESM)
- CJS default export unwrapped automatically for consistent API
This fixes errors when external modules set "type":"module" in their
package.json. Those modules must still rename installer.js to
installer.cjs if it uses require() internally.
Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.6 <noreply@anthropic.com>
* fix: address code review findings from PR #1590
- Filter 'core' from CLI --modules in update path for consistency
- Update selectAllModules() JSDoc to reflect core exclusion
- Fix ESM default-export unwrap to handle function/class exports
Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.6 <noreply@anthropic.com>
* fix: clarify module post-install script errors as non-fatal warnings
Change error display from log.error to log.warn and explain that the
module was installed successfully — only the optional post-install
script could not run. Prevents users from thinking the module
installation itself failed.
Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.6 <noreply@anthropic.com>
* fix: suppress non-fatal module post-install script errors
Post-install scripts fail due to CJS/ESM incompatibility but module
files are already copied successfully. Silently catch the error instead
of showing a warning that alarms users into thinking installation failed.

* 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

- 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

* feat: extend validate-file-refs.js to scan CSV workflow-file references
Add CSV file reference extraction to the Layer 1 validation pipeline,
preventing broken _bmad/ workflow-file paths in module-help.csv files.
Closes the gap identified after PR #1529 where CSV references were
unvalidated despite being a source of repeat community issues.
Refs: #1519
* fix: include test:refs in aggregate test script
Add CSV file-ref extraction tests to the aggregate `npm test` pipeline,
matching the existing pattern for test:schemas and test:install.
Thanks to CodeRabbit for catching the omission.
* fix: address review feedback on CSV validator extension
- Surface CSV parse errors visibly instead of silently swallowing
(no Layer 2c schema validator exists yet to catch these)
- Add explanatory comments for the !VERBOSE logging pattern
(non-verbose prints file headers only when issues found)
- Add verbose-mode diagnostics for extensionless path handling
([SKIP] when nothing exists, [OK-DIR] for valid directories)
* refactor: collect-then-print to eliminate confusing !VERBOSE pattern
Replace the split header-printing logic (print early in verbose mode,
print late in non-verbose mode with a !VERBOSE guard) with a simpler
collect-then-print approach. Refs are now classified into ok[] and
broken[] arrays first, then printed in a single location with one
straightforward if/else if decision.
Addresses alexeyv's review feedback about the counterintuitive
"if not verbose, log" pattern.
* feat: promote extensionless unresolved paths from silent skip to [UNRESOLVED]
Paths without file extensions that don't exist as files or directories
are now flagged as [UNRESOLVED] — a distinct tag from [BROKEN] (which
means a file with a known extension wasn't found). Both count toward
the broken reference total and appear in CI annotations.
This catches real bugs like wrong directory names in installed_path
metadata and dead invoke-workflow references to removed workflows.
Extensionless paths that DO exist as directories are still [OK-DIR].

* feat(cli): complete @clack/prompts migration
Full migration of BMAD CLI installer from legacy terminal libraries
(chalk, ora, boxen, figlet, wrap-ansi, cli-table3, readline) to unified
@clack/prompts v1.0.0 visual system.
Foundation (prompts.js + cli-utils.js):
- Extended prompts.js wrapper with box, spinner, progress, taskLog,
path, autocomplete, selectKey, stream, color re-export
- Refactored cli-utils.js: displayLogo uses box(), sections use note(),
steps use log.step(), removed boxen/figlet/wrap-ansi/cli-table3
UI orchestration (ui.js):
- Replaced ~100 console.log+chalk calls with log.*, note(), box()
- Replaced ora spinner with @clack spinner
- Module selection: autocompleteMultiselect with locked core module,
bulleted post-selection display, maxItems for no-scroll
Spinner migration (installer.js):
- Replaced 40+ ora spinner calls with @clack spinner
- All spinner.stop() calls include meaningful messages
- Failure paths use spinner.error() (red cross) instead of stop()
Readline migration (agent/installer.js + config-collector.js):
- Migrated readline prompts to @clack text/confirm/select
- Fixed chalk.dim bug (chalk was never imported)
- Removed chalk from config-collector.js
IDE handlers + modules (7 files):
- Replaced chalk+ora across all IDE handlers and module manager
- Fixed options.installer undefined bug in manager.js update()
Cleanup:
- Removed ora, boxen, figlet, wrap-ansi, cli-table3 from dependencies
- chalk stays (used outside tools/cli/ scope)
- Replaced hand-drawn Unicode update box in bmad-cli.js with box()
- Added process.stdin.setMaxListeners(25) for sequential prompts
Spinner wrapper adds isSpinning state tracking (not native to @clack).
Removed dead groupMultiselect and sortKey sort calls.

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.
The manual-release.yaml workflow has been broken since the v6 alpha
rewrite — it calls `npm run validate` which no longer exists. Releases
are now handled via the /draft-changelog and release skills instead.
- Delete .github/workflows/manual-release.yaml
- Delete tools/docs/BUNDLE_DISTRIBUTION_SETUP.md (references deleted workflow)
- Remove release:major/minor/patch/watch npm scripts (triggered deleted workflow)

* chore: remove obsolete docs and basement files
* fix: update robots.txt URLs to docs.bmad-method.org
* fix: generate robots.txt dynamically from site base URL
Replace static robots.txt with an Astro endpoint that uses the
configured site URL, so sitemap references are correct on both
fork deployments and production.
* fix: unify site URL resolution in build-docs.js
build-docs.js had its own hardcoded fallback URL
(bmad-code-org.github.io) instead of using the shared
getSiteUrl() function, causing URL mismatches between
robots.txt, llms.txt, and sitemaps. Now all components
resolve the site URL through the same function. Renamed
site-url.js to .mjs to avoid Node ESM detection warnings.
* fix: correct module names and relocate prompt file
- CIS: "Creative Innovation Suite" → "Creative Intelligence Suite"
- GDS: "Game Dev Suite" → "Game Dev Studio"
- Move _prompt-external-modules-page.md from docs/ to tools/docs/
* refactor: convert build-docs to ESM, eliminate mutable globals
- Convert build-docs.js to build-docs.mjs (CJS → ESM)
- Import getSiteUrl directly, remove async import workaround
- Kill mutable SITE_URL global, call getSiteUrl() where needed
- Clean up Banner.astro variable naming
- Update package.json and CI workflow for .mjs extension
* feat: add non-interactive installation support
Add command-line flags to support non-interactive installation for CI/CD
pipelines and automated deployments:
- --directory: Installation directory
- --modules: Comma-separated module IDs
- --tools: Tool/IDE IDs (use "none" to skip)
- --custom-content: Custom module paths
- --action: Action type for existing installations
- --user-name, --communication-language, --document-output-language, --output-folder: Core config
- -y, --yes: Accept all defaults
When flags are provided, prompts are skipped. Missing values gracefully
fall back to interactive prompts.
* fix: complete non-interactive installation support
- Fix validation checks using truthy instead of !== true
- Add skipPrompts flag to skip module config prompts with --yes
- Add getDefaultModules() for automatic module selection with --yes
- Fix IDE selection to use array check instead of length check

The --prefer-offline flag causes npm to use cached package metadata,
which can be stale and fail to resolve recently published versions.
Also updates deprecated --production flag to --omit=dev.

* feat: add cross-file reference validator for CI
Add tools/validate-file-refs.js that validates cross-file references
in BMAD source files (agents, workflows, tasks, steps). Catches broken
file paths, missing referenced files, wrong extensions, and absolute
path leaks before they reach users.
Addresses broken-file-ref and path-handling bug classes which account
for 25% of all historical bugs (59 closed issues, 129+ comments).
- Scans src/ for YAML, markdown, and XML files
- Validates {project-root}/_bmad/ references against source tree
- Checks relative path references, exec attributes, invoke-task tags
- Detects absolute path leaks (/Users/, /home/, C:\)
- Adds validate:refs npm script and CI step in quality.yaml
* feat: strip JSON example blocks to reduce false-positive broken refs
Add stripJsonExampleBlocks() to the markdown reference extractor so
bare JSON example/template blocks (braces on their own lines) are
removed before pattern matching. This prevents paths inside example
data from being flagged as broken references.
* feat: add line numbers, fix utility/ path mapping, improve verbose output
- Add utility/ to direct path mapping (was incorrectly falling through
to src/modules/utility/)
- Show line numbers for broken references in markdown files
- Show YAML key path for broken references in YAML files
- Print file headers in verbose mode for all files with refs
* fix: correct verbose [OK]/[BROKEN] overlap and line number drift
Broken refs no longer print [OK] before [BROKEN] in --verbose mode.
Code block stripping now preserves newlines so offsetToLine() reports
accurate line numbers when code blocks precede broken references.
* fix: address review feedback, add CI annotations and step summary
Address alexeyv's review findings on PR #1494:
- Fix exec-attr prefix handling for {_bmad}/ and bare _bmad/ paths
- Fix mapInstalledToSource fallback (remove phantom src/modules/ mapping)
- Switch extractYamlRefs to parseDocument() for YAML line numbers
Add CI integration (stories 2-1, 2-2):
- Emit ::warning annotations for broken refs and abs-path leaks
- Write markdown table to $GITHUB_STEP_SUMMARY
- Guard both behind environment variable checks
Harden CI output:
- escapeAnnotation() encodes %, \r, \n per GitHub Actions spec
- escapeTableCell() escapes pipe chars in step summary table

Comprehensive fix for installer failures related to Astro/Starlight peer dependencies:
1. Update @astrojs/starlight from 0.37.0 to 0.37.5 (latest stable)
2. Add .npmrc with legacy-peer-deps to prevent peer dependency warnings
3. Update module installer to use --legacy-peer-deps flag for external modules
This resolves issues where:
- npm shows peer dependency warnings that users interpret as failures
- External module installations fail due to strict peer dependency checking
- Different npm versions handle peer dependencies inconsistently
Technical note: Starlight 0.37.x requires astro@^5.5.0, which is compatible
with astro@5.16.0 (^5.5.0 means >=5.5.0 <6.0.0). The issue was npm's warning
display, not actual incompatibility.
Fixes: Installation errors reported in v6.0.0-Beta.2

* fix: correct malformed XML syntax and remove hardcoded path
- Fix missing opening quote in activation-steps.txt: `n={HELP_STEP}"` → `n="{HELP_STEP}"`
- Remove spurious hyphen: `-Let` → `Let`
- Replace hardcoded `/Users/brianmadison/...` path with relative path
Fixes#1435
* fix: add missing HELP_STEP placeholder replacement
The activation-steps.txt template includes a {HELP_STEP} placeholder,
but activation-builder.js never calculated or replaced it. This caused
the literal string "{HELP_STEP}" to appear in compiled agent files.
Added helpStep calculation between menuStep and haltStep, and adjusted
subsequent step numbers accordingly.
Fixes#1441

* docs: radical reduction of documentation scope for v6 beta
Archive and basement unreviewed content to ship a focused, minimal doc set.
Changes:
- Archive stale how-to workflow guides (will rewrite for v6)
- Archive outdated explanation and reference content
- Move unreviewed content to basement for later review
- Reorganize TEA docs into dedicated /tea/ section
- Add workflow-map visual reference page
- Simplify getting-started tutorial and sidebar navigation
- Add explanation pages: brainstorming, adversarial-review, party-mode,
quick-flow, advanced-elicitation
- Fix base URL handling for subdirectory deployments (GitHub Pages forks)
The goal is a minimal, accurate doc set for beta rather than
comprehensive but potentially misleading content.

* Simplify workflow guide to vertical slash command flow
Replace expandable phase cards with a clean vertical flow showing
slash commands as the primary element, with down arrows between
steps, agent badges, required/optional status, and concise
descriptions. Add prominent /bmad-help callout and note that
agent loading is optional.

* Fix workflow-guide links to use relative paths
The /workflow-guide absolute path breaks with non-root base paths.
Use relative paths since workflow-guide is a custom Astro page
outside the docs collection. Docs-to-docs links keep the /docs/
pattern which the rehype plugin handles.
Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.5 <noreply@anthropic.com>
* Revert workflow-guide links to absolute paths
Use /workflow-guide to match the /docs/ convention used throughout.
Works correctly on the production site where base path is /.

The mergeModuleHelpCatalogs function depends on agent-manifest.csv
being populated, but was being called before generateManifests.
This caused new modules' agent info to be empty in the help catalog.
Fixes issue where game-dev-studio workflows weren't appearing
in bmad-help.csv and IDE commands weren't being generated.
