Method-driven review that exhaustively walks branching paths and
boundary conditions, reporting only unhandled gaps. Orthogonal to
the attitude-driven adversarial review for complementary coverage.
Add all changes since v6.0.2 including new root-cause-analysis skill,
installer fixes, workflow fixes, and documentation updates.
Also standardize quotes in remaining task/workflow files.
* fix(workflows): remove ambiguous with-argument from help task chaining
The "with argument" clause in 7 workflow completion steps caused LLMs
to interpret "Read fully and follow: help.md with argument X" as a
skill/function invocation rather than a file-read instruction. Drop the
clause entirely — help.md already infers the completed workflow from
the preceding "[Workflow] complete." text in conversation context.
Closes#1637
* fix(workflows): correct broken qa/automate file references
The QA workflow was renamed to qa-generate-e2e-tests but three files
still referenced the old qa/automate path, breaking CI file-ref
validation.
* fix(test): update QA agent test to match renamed workflow path
The workflow path changed from qa/automate to qa-generate-e2e-tests
but the installation component test was not updated to match.

- Standardize all workflow descriptions to follow format: [short description]. Use when the user says 'explicit action phrase' or 'another phrase'
- Remove verbose descriptions in favor of concise summaries with explicit trigger phrases
- Use max 2 phrases per workflow to minimize context and false positives
- Phrases are explicit actions (e.g., "lets create", "run X") not questions
- No slash commands in descriptions - users invoke via /name directly
- Rename qa/automate to qa-generate-e2e-tests for clarity
- Update various core tasks and workflows
Update 9 files that referenced the old path
bmm/workflows/3-solutioning/architecture/steps/ to the correct
bmm/workflows/3-solutioning/create-architecture/steps/ after the
directory was renamed.

* fix: replace bare _bmad/ backtick refs with {project-root}/_bmad/
Closes#1718 (partial — bare _bmad/ category only)
* fix: replace relative step refs with {project-root}/_bmad/ paths
Converts all ./step-XX.md, step-XX.md, and steps/step-XX.md
backtick references in new-format workflow and step files to
full {project-root}/_bmad/... paths.
Refs #1718
* fix: correct create-architecture installed path and remaining relative refs
- replace create-architecture with architecture in all step path refs
to match workflow.md installed_path definition
- convert ../data/ relative refs in create-prd step-05/06/11 frontmatter
- fix stale nextStepFile example in create-prd step-01b-continue
- fix bare step-01-init.md ref in create-architecture step-01b-continue
Fixes#1718
* fix: convert remaining relative data refs and fix stale examples in continue steps
* fix: inline quick-spec step navigation paths, remove frontmatter tokens
Replace {nextStepFile} and {skipToStepFile} frontmatter tokens with
explicit {project-root}/_bmad/ paths in all quick-spec step files.
These are LLM prompts, not config files -- inline paths are clearer
and carry semantic information without indirection. Also standardize
wording from "Load" to "Read fully and follow:" for consistency.
Also add .junie/ to .prettierignore to fix unrelated CI noise.

The 4-backtick markdown fence closed prematurely at line 235,
orphaning template content and causing a stray 3-backtick fence
to swallow sections 9-13 into an unclosed code block.
The PRD workflow step-02 was refactored to be discovery-only with
forward references to steps 2b and 2c, but those files were never
created. This left a gap where the workflow jumped from classification
directly to success criteria with no executive summary generation.
- Add step-02b-vision.md: collaborative vision/differentiator discovery
- Add step-02c-executive-summary.md: generate and append exec summary
- Update step-02 nextStepFile to chain through 02b instead of skipping to 03
- Remove YAML quotes from principles list item (consistency with other agents)
- Add missing comma: "at runtime never" → "at runtime, never" (run-on fix)

* fix: remove output_folder/story_dir aliases, flatten variables sections (#1602)
Drop pointless alias variables (output_folder, story_dir, story_directory)
from Phase 4, Quick Flow, and QA workflows. Replace all references with
the canonical {implementation_artifacts} or {planning_artifacts} variables.
Also flatten unnecessary `variables:` YAML nesting in all affected
workflow.yaml files — the workflow engine treats all keys as top-level,
so the nesting added complexity with no semantic value.

the instruction files must explicitly reference it.

* 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

* fix: add error handling for CSV read/parse in loadAgentManifest and loadBmadHelp

* fix: use specific detection paths instead of .github configDir

* 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.

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.

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
Update all references to the help task file from the old path
`_bmad/core/tasks/bmad-help.md` to the new path `_bmad/core/tasks/help.md`.
Affected files:
- 7 workflow step files across multiple workflows
- 1 IDE tool command generator (updated comments)
Remove the forbidden `workflow_path` frontmatter variable from 16 step files
across 3 workflows (quick-dev, quick-spec, check-implementation-readiness).
Per BMAD workflow standards, step files should use relative paths or
{project-root} references instead.
Changes:
- quick-dev (6 files): removed workflow_path and unused thisStepFile
- quick-spec (4 files): removed workflow_path, updated templateFile to use relative path
- check-implementation-readiness (6 files): removed workflow_path, updated all references to use relative paths
Also fixes incorrect path in check-implementation-readiness that referenced
non-existent 'implementation-readiness' folder instead of 'check-implementation-readiness'.
Fixes#1546
Fixes#1547
- step-05 now correctly routes to step-06-research-synthesis.md instead of presenting itself as the final step
- Fixed step-04 stepsCompleted: [1,2,3] → [1,2,3,4]
- Fixed step-05 stepsCompleted: [1,2,3,4] → [1,2,3,4,5]
- Fixed step-06 stepsCompleted: [1,2,3,4,5] → [1,2,3,4,5,6]
- Fixed step-05 title from "Step 4" to "Step 5"
- Fixed step-06 title from "Step 5" to "Step 6"
- Updated success/failure metrics and NEXT STEP sections
This mirrors the fix applied to market research in Beta.5, ensuring the technical research workflow properly completes through all 6 steps.
After Party Mode completes within a parent workflow, the LLM fails to
re-present the parent workflow's completion menu due to lost-in-the-middle
effect at 50-100K tokens. The parent workflow instructions get pushed into
mid-context where they are no longer proactively recalled.
Add a Return Protocol section to step-03-graceful-exit.md that instructs
the LLM to:
1. Identify the parent workflow that invoked party-mode
2. Re-read that file to restore context
3. Resume from the invocation point
4. Present required menus/options
This is platform-independent prompt engineering that forces proactive
re-reading rather than relying on mid-context recall.

* fix: bmad-help agent reads project docs and respects communication_language
The help task fabricated tech stack information instead of reading actual
project documentation (#1460) and ignored communication_language config
(#1457). Three changes:
1. Step 2 now also extracts communication_language and project_knowledge
from the active module's config.yaml
2. New step 3 scans project_knowledge path for documentation and uses
discovered facts as grounding context, with anti-hallucination guard
3. Step 7 enforces {communication_language} in all output
Chose inline config resolution over workflow.yaml conversion to match
existing core task patterns (index-docs, shard-doc).
Fixes#1460
Relates to #1457
* fix: clarify config extraction wording in help task
Remove "active module" reference from step 2 — config extraction
happens during the all-modules scan, before module detection in
step 4. Changed to "each scanned module's config" to match the
existing iteration pattern.

Adds two operational technology domains to domain-complexity.csv
in both PRD and architecture workflows. Addresses the gap in OT
domain coverage for physical process control and building systems.
process_control: industrial automation, SCADA, PLC, DCS, I&C,
P&ID — covers power/utilities, water treatment, oil & gas,
manufacturing, chemical, pharmaceutical, food & beverage, mining,
and other sectors where software controls physical processes.
Key concerns include functional safety, process safety and hazard
analysis, environmental compliance, OT cybersecurity, and plant
reliability/maintainability. Requires engineering_authority PRD
section for PE/EOR credential requirements.
building_automation: BAS/BMS, HVAC, fire alarm, fire protection,
life safety, elevators, lighting, access control, commissioning —
covers commercial and institutional building systems. Key concerns
include life safety codes, multi-trade coordination, commissioning,
and indoor environmental quality.
Both domains are high complexity, include engineering_authority
as a required PRD section, and follow established entry patterns.

- BS -> BSP (Brainstorming in core module)
Resolves conflict with cis Brainstorming (BS).
Core is for project brainstorming, cis is general brainstorming.
Replace /src/core/ paths with {project-root}/_bmad/core/ convention
in validation-report-prd-workflow.md lines 293-294.
These paths reference party-mode and advanced-elicitation workflows
using the source tree layout (/src/core/) instead of the installed
layout ({project-root}/_bmad/core/) that Beta.4 standardized
across all other files.
This is the remaining half of the fix for #1435, which was closed
as "will fix with .4 release" but only the brianmadison path on
line 11 and the XML syntax issue were addressed. The /src/core/
paths on lines 293-294 were missed.

Add an optional also_consider parameter that allows callers to pass
domain-specific areas to keep in mind during review. This gently nudges
the reviewer toward specific concerns without overriding normal analysis.

* fix(build): use file glob instead of sidebar parsing for llms-full.txt
Replace brittle sidebar.js regex parsing with recursive file glob.
The old approach captured non-file strings like 'autogenerated' and
category labels, resulting in only 5 files being processed.
Now correctly processes all 86+ markdown files (~95k tokens).

AI web-browsing agents couldn't follow relative paths in meta tags due to
URL security restrictions. Changed llms-full.txt and llms.txt meta tag
URLs from relative (baseUrl) to absolute (urlParts.origin + baseUrl).

- Replace "draft" verb with "create" in story-related messaging
- Add legacy `drafted` → `ready-for-dev` migration in sprint-status

Change "Story is ready for next work!" to "Code review complete!"
The original phrasing was misleading - when a code review finishes
with status "done", it means the review itself is complete and the
story is marked done in tracking. However, the user may choose to
do additional reviews or the story may genuinely be finished.
"Code review complete" more accurately describes what actually
happened without implying next steps.
Removes references to epic-tech-context, story-context, story-done,
and story-ready workflows that were deleted in the Phase 4 transformation.
Also renames mislabeled excalidraw element IDs from proc-story-done
to proc-code-review to match the actual displayed text.
Fixes#1088
