When a stable release publishes via workflow_dispatch, @latest can leapfrog
the existing @next prerelease (e.g. latest=6.5.0 while next=6.4.1-next.0),
turning `npx bmad-method@next install` into a silent downgrade until the
next qualifying push to main republishes a fresh -next.0.
- publish.yaml: after stable publish, repoint @next at the just-published
stable version. The existing derive-prerelease step picks max(latest, next)
as its base, so subsequent push-driven prereleases bump from there.
- bmad-cli.js: checkForUpdate was querying the @beta dist-tag (which this
package does not use). Replace string-matching with semver.prerelease()
and query @next for prerelease users.
* refactor(installer): restructure installer with clean separation of concerns
Move tools/cli/ to tools/installer/ with major structural cleanup:
- InstallPaths async factory for path resolution and directory creation
- Config value object (frozen) replaces mutable config bag
- ExistingInstall value object replaces stateful Detector class
- OfficialModules + CustomModules + ExternalModuleManager replace monolithic ModuleManager
- install() is prompt-free; all user interaction in ui.js
- Update state returned explicitly instead of mutating customConfig
- Delete dead code: dependency-resolver, _base-ide, IdeConfigManager,
platform-codes helpers, npx wrapper, xml-utils
- Flatten directory structure: custom/handler → custom-handler,
tools/cli/ → tools/installer/, lib/ directories removed
- Update all path references in package.json, tests, CI, and docs
* fix(installer): guard ExistingInstall.version and surface module.yaml errors
Guard ExistingInstall.version access with .installed check in
uninstall.js, ui.js, and installer.js to prevent throwing on
empty/partial _bmad dirs. Surface invalid module.yaml parse errors
as warnings instead of silently returning empty results.
* ci: add continuous delivery workflows for npm publishing
Add publish-next (auto-prerelease on push to main) and publish-latest
(manual stable release with Discord notification). Update CONTRIBUTING.md
to describe the trunk-based CD model.
* fix(ci): guard publish-latest against non-main dispatch
Reject workflow_dispatch runs from non-main refs to prevent
publishing unintended code or fast-forwarding main unexpectedly.
* chore: unify npm publish workflow
