* fix(bmgd): add workflow status update to game-architecture completion
The game-architecture workflow was not updating the bmgd-workflow-status.yaml
file on completion, unlike other BMGD workflows (narrative, brainstorm-game).
Changes:
- Add step 4 "Update Workflow Status" to update create-architecture status
- Renumber subsequent steps (5-8 → 6-9)
- Add success metric for workflow status update
- Add failure condition for missing status update
* feat(bmgd): add generate-project-context workflow for game development
Adds a new workflow to create optimized project-context.md files for AI agent
consistency in game development projects.
New workflow files:
- workflow.md: Main workflow entry point
- project-context-template.md: Template for context file
- steps/step-01-discover.md: Context discovery & initialization
- steps/step-02-generate.md: Rules generation with A/P/C menus
- steps/step-03-complete.md: Finalization & optimization
Integration:
- Added generate-project-context trigger to game-architect agent menu
- Added project context creation option to game-architecture completion step
- Renumbered steps 6-9 → 7-10 to accommodate new step 6
Adapted from BMM generate-project-context with game-specific:
- Engine patterns (Unity, Unreal, Godot)
- Performance and frame budget rules
- Platform-specific requirements
- Game testing patterns
* fix(bmgd): correct workflow-status filename and add sprint-planning update
- Fix all BMGD workflows to reference bmgd-workflow-status.yaml instead of bmm-workflow-status.yaml
- Add workflow-status update to sprint-planning workflow completion
Affected workflows:
- brainstorm-game (instructions.md, step-01-init.md, step-04-complete.md)
- game-brief (instructions.md)
- narrative (instructions-narrative.md, step-11-complete.md)
- game-architecture (instructions.md)
- sprint-planning (instructions.md)

* update 2024 to 2025
* fix(workflows): remove hardcoded years from WebSearch queries
Years in search queries (2024/2025) do not improve results - search
engines already prioritize current documentation. Tested all patterns
and confirmed identical quality results with/without years.
Removes years from:
- step-03-starter.md (5 queries)
- step-04-decisions.md (2 queries)
- game-architecture/instructions.md (2 queries)
Leaves file-utils.md unchanged (test fixture data, not a search query).

* fix(workflows): remove year placeholders from research WebSearch queries
Search engines return current results regardless of year - removes
{{current_year}} and hardcoded 2025 from step-05-technical-trends.md

* refactor(workflows): replace {{current_year}} with semantic alternatives
Replaces year placeholder with context-appropriate wording:
- 'current data' for up-to-date information
- 'web searches' without year qualifier
- Updated failure mode to focus on using web searches

Rephrased to explicitly mention training data cutoff as the reason

* refactor(workflows): make web search references platform-agnostic
- Remove hardcoded year references from WebSearch queries
- Replace `WebSearch` tool name with natural language "search the web"
- Soften "training data is stale" to "verify and supplement your knowledge"
- Add web search prerequisite check to research workflow
- Add platform-agnostic design note to CLAUDE.md
This framework targets 15+ agentic platforms, not just Claude Code.
Tool-specific syntax like `WebSearch:` won't work across all platforms.

This commit extracts game development functionality from BMM into a standalone
BMGD (BMad Game Development) module and implements workflow vendoring to enable
module independence.
BMGD Module Creation:
- Moved agents: game-designer, game-dev, game-architect from BMM to BMGD
- Moved team config: team-gamedev
- Created new Game Dev Scrum Master agent using workflow vendoring pattern
- Reorganized workflows into industry-standard game dev phases:
* Phase 1 (Preproduction): brainstorm-game, game-brief
* Phase 2 (Design): gdd, narrative
* Phase 3 (Technical): game-architecture
* Phase 4 (Production): vendored from BMM workflows
- Updated all module metadata and config_source references
Workflow Vendoring Feature:
- Enables modules to copy workflows from other modules during installation
- Build-time process that updates config_source in vendored workflows
- New agent YAML attribute: workflow-install (build-time metadata)
- Final compiled agents use workflow-install value for workflow attribute
- Implementation in module manager: vendorCrossModuleWorkflows()
- Allows standalone module installation without forced dependencies
Technical Changes:
- tools/cli/lib/yaml-xml-builder.js: Use workflow-install for workflow attribute
- tools/cli/installers/lib/modules/manager.js: Add vendoring functions
- tools/schema/agent.js: Add workflow-install to menu item schema
- Updated 3 documentation files with workflow vendoring details
BMM Workflow Updates:
- workflow-status/init: Added game detection checkpoint
- workflow-status/paths/game-design.yaml: Redirect to BMGD module
- prd/instructions.md: Route game projects to BMGD
- research/instructions-market.md: Reference BMGD for game development
Documentation:
- Created comprehensive BMGD module README
- Added workflow vendoring documentation
- Updated BMB agent creation and module creation guides
