Add customize.toml with stock fields (inject before/after, additional_resources)
to all 34 remaining workflow and core skills. Copy resolve-customization.py
script into every skill's scripts/ directory. Add customization resolve and
inject points to all workflow SKILL.md files. Strip fallback blocks from all
SKILL.md files since the script ships with every skill.
Core and BMM modules live in this repo (src/core-skills, src/bmm-skills)
but the installer UI sourced them from the remote registry. When the
registry was unreachable (VPN, proxy, firewall), the fallback YAML only
had the 4 external modules, so core and bmm disappeared from the install
list entirely.
Now _selectOfficialModules and getDefaultModules always read built-in
modules from the local source via OfficialModules.listAvailable(), then
append external modules from the registry. Network failures only affect
external modules.
Closes#2239
* feat(bmad-help): add _meta rows and llms.txt support for general questions
Register llms.txt URLs in module-help.csv via _meta rows so bmad-help
can fetch module documentation when users ask questions that don't map
to a specific skill.
* refactor(bmad-help): streamline llms.txt docs into existing skill sections
* chore: remove SM agent (Bob) and migrate capabilities to Developer agent
Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.6 (1M context) <noreply@anthropic.com>
* fix(docs): correct agent naming and grammar from review triage
Standardize Developer agent references to bmad-agent-dev (matching
installed skill directory name) and fix possessive apostrophe in
implementation-readiness workflow.
* fix(skills): replace dev team references with Developer agent
No longer a multi-agent development team — just one Developer agent.
Remove residual Scrum Master search patterns from retrospective.

Replace the multi-file workflow architecture (workflow.md + 3 step files)
with a self-contained SKILL.md that spawns each agent as an independent
subagent via the Agent tool. This produces genuinely diverse perspectives
instead of one LLM roleplaying multiple characters. Adds --model and
--solo flags for flexibility.
* refactor: remove bmad-init skill and standardize config loading across all skills
Remove the bmad-init core skill entirely — all agents and workflow skills now
load config directly from their module's config.yaml instead of delegating to
bmad-init as an intermediary. This eliminates the Python script dependency and
simplifies the activation path for every skill.
Changes across all skill types:
- Agents (9 skills): Replace "Load config via bmad-init skill" block with
direct config loading from `{project-root}/_bmad/bmm/config.yaml`, resolving
user_name, communication_language, document_output_language,
planning_artifacts, and project_knowledge
- Workflow skills (12 skills): Standardize INITIALIZATION/Configuration Loading
sections to a consistent Activation format matching the agent pattern
- bmad-prfaq: Align activation to standard config pattern, convert scripted
dialogue to outcome-focused instructions (no direct quotes)
- bmad-product-brief: Remove External Skills section referencing bmad-init
- bmad-party-mode: Standardize initialization to Activation format
- bmad-advanced-elicitation: Inline agent_party path instead of config var
- bmad-distillator: Remove unused argument-hint frontmatter
- Delete legacy create-prd/ directory (superseded by bmad-create-prd)
- Delete bmad-init skill entirely: SKILL.md, bmad_init.py, core-module.yaml,
and test suite
* fix: remove remaining bmad-init references from marketplace.json and distillate examples
Clean up missed references: remove bmad-init from marketplace.json skills
list, replace bmad-init examples in distillate-format-reference.md with
bmad-help/bmad-setup to keep examples valid without referencing a removed skill.
* fix: update broken file references in bmad-edit-prd after create-prd deletion
Point prdPurpose refs from deleted create-prd/data/ to bmad-create-prd/data/
and validationWorkflow ref from create-prd/steps-v/ to bmad-validate-prd/steps-v/.
* 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.
* fix(bmad-init): correctly resolve output_folder paths outside project root
When output_folder was set to an absolute path (e.g. /Users/me/outputs),
the {project-root}/{value} result template stored it as
{project-root}//absolute/path. resolve_project_root_placeholder then did
a naive string replace, producing /project//absolute/path — a broken path
that workflows could not resolve.
For relative paths outside the root (e.g. ../../sibling), the same naive
replace left un-normalized paths like /project/../../sibling in the
resolved config, which some tools mishandled.
Fix resolve_project_root_placeholder to strip the {project-root} token,
detect whether the remainder is absolute (returning it directly) or
relative (joining with project root and normalizing via os.path.normpath).
Fix apply_result_template to skip the template entirely when raw_value is
already an absolute path, and to normalize the result for relative-but-
outside paths. This covers the bmad-init SKILL write path, which bakes
the resolved path directly into config.yaml.
Add 7 tests covering all three path cases (absolute, relative-with-
traversal, normal in-project) for both functions.
* Address review comments

Switch skill discovery gate from requiring bmad-skill-manifest.yaml with
type: skill to detecting any directory with a valid SKILL.md (frontmatter
name + description, name matches directory name). Delete 34 stub manifests
that carried no data beyond type: skill. Agent manifests (9) are retained
for persona metadata consumed by agent-manifest.csv.
Inline workflow.md content directly into SKILL.md for: editorial-review-prose,
editorial-review-structure, help, index-docs, review-adversarial-general,
review-edge-case-hunter, and shard-doc. Deletes the now-redundant workflow.md
files. No behavioral change — same pattern as advanced-elicitation in PR #2076.

Merge workflow.md content directly into SKILL.md and delete the
now-redundant workflow file. The frontmatter `agent_party` variable
moves into SKILL.md; all relative file references (`./methods.csv`)
remain valid.

* refactor: consolidate agents into phase-based skill directories
Remove separate agent/workflow/skill directories (src/bmm/agents,
src/bmm/workflows, src/core/skills, src/utility/agent-components) and
reorganize all content into phase-based structures under src/bmm-skills
(1-analysis, 2-plan-workflows, 3-solutioning, 4-implementation) and
src/core-skills. Eliminates the agent/skill distinction by treating
agents as skills within their workflow phase.
* fix: update broken file references to use new bmm-skills paths
* docs: update all references for unified bmad-quick-dev workflow
Remove all references to the old separate bmad-quick-spec and
bmad-quick-dev-new-preview workflows. The new bmad-quick-dev is a
unified workflow that handles intent clarification, planning,
implementation, review, and presentation in a single run.
Updated files across English docs, Chinese translations, source
skill manifests, website diagram, and build tooling.
