Implemented Cline-inspired Memory Bank pattern for AI context persistence across sessions.
This ensures continuity and deep understanding of projects even when AI memory resets.
Core Memory Bank Components:
- Created 6 core memory bank templates following hierarchical structure
- projectbrief.md: Foundation document with project scope and goals
- productContext.md: The 'why' behind the project
- systemPatterns.md: Technical architecture and decisions
- techContext.md: Technology stack and environment
- activeContext.md: Current work focus and priorities
- progress.md: Project state tracking and evolution
Tasks and Workflows:
- initialize-memory-bank.md: Creates initial Memory Bank structure
- update-memory-bank.md: Updates based on dev journals, ADRs, and changes
- memory-bank-triggers.md: Reference guide for when to update
Agent Integrations:
- Enhanced architect agent with Memory Bank awareness and commands
- Enhanced dev agent to update activeContext and progress
- Enhanced po agent for requirements alignment with Memory Bank
- All agents now read Memory Bank at session start
Pervasive Integration Strategy:
- ADR creation triggers systemPatterns updates
- Dev journal entries trigger activeContext updates
- Story completion triggers progress updates
- Comprehensive commits/PRs trigger relevant updates
- Document-project task integrates with Memory Bank initialization
This provides AI agents with persistent context across sessions, preventing
loss of project knowledge and ensuring consistent understanding.
- Created create-comprehensive-commit.md task with anti-tunnel vision mechanisms
- Multi-stream aware commit message generation
- Systematic evidence gathering from multiple sources
- Comprehensive context analysis and rationale documentation
- Quality checklist to prevent tunnel vision
- Created create-comprehensive-pr.md task for detailed PR descriptions
- Work stream identification and documentation
- Per-stream testing instructions
- Visual evidence requirements
- Review focus areas and deployment notes
- Integrated workflows into dev and architect agents
- Added *comprehensive-commit command
- Added *comprehensive-pr command
- Made workflows available to agents who create commits/PRs
These workflows ensure high-quality git documentation with comprehensive
coverage of all changes, preventing the tunnel vision that often results
in incomplete commit messages or PR descriptions.
- Removed unnecessary folders from BMAD-METHOD repo (docs/adr, docs/devJournal)
- Updated tasks to create folders in destination projects when needed
- Removed standalone adr-specialist agent (functionality integrated into architect)
- Added create-adr task with folder setup instructions
- Both ADR and Dev Journal features now properly create their structures in target projects
The agents will now create and maintain docs/adr and docs/devJournal folders
in the projects where BMAD is installed, not in the BMAD-METHOD repo itself.
- Created comprehensive ADR template following Michael Nygard's format
- Enhanced architect agent with ADR management capabilities
- Added ADR triggers reference guide for decision documentation
- Updated architect checklist with ADR validation section
- Imported user's comprehensive development methodology in tmp/
- Memory Bank system for AI context persistence
- Detailed rules covering coding principles and architecture patterns
- Workflows for common development tasks with anti-tunnel vision checks
- Created foundation for integrating user methodology with BMAD
- Fixed pre-commit hook by removing non-existent test script
This enhancement brings structured architectural decision documentation
to BMAD while preparing for deeper integration with advanced AI-assisted
development patterns.
* refactor: Standardize on 'GitHub Copilot' branding
- Update all references from 'Github Copilot' to 'GitHub Copilot' (official branding)
- Simplify GitHub Copilot guide reference in README
- Rebuild distribution files to reflect changes
- Ensure consistent branding across documentation and configuration
* fix: add Trae IDE support while maintaining GitHub Copilot branding
* fix: correct typos in documentation and agent files
Fix multiple instances of "assest" typo to "assets" in documentation
Correct "quetsions" typo to "questions" in repository structure sections
Add new words to cSpell dictionary in VS Code settings
* feat(trae): add support for trae ide integration
- Add trae guide documentation
- Update installer to support trae configuration
- Include trae in ide options and documentation references
- Fix typo in architect agent documentation
