-- **Phase 4** (Required): Implementation (`*sprint-planning` → per-epic: `*test-design` → per-story: dev workflows)
-
 **TEA workflows:** `*framework` and `*ci` run once in Phase 3 after architecture. `*test-design` is **dual-mode**:
 
 - **System-level (Phase 3):** Run immediately after architecture/ADR drafting to produce `test-design-system.md` (testability review, ADR → test mapping, Architecturally Significant Requirements (ASRs), environment needs). Feeds the implementation-readiness gate.
 - **Epic-level (Phase 4):** Run per-epic to produce `test-design-epic-N.md` (risk, priorities, coverage plan).

+The Quick Flow track skips Phases 1 and 3.
 BMad Method and Enterprise use all phases based on project needs.
 When an ADR or architecture draft is produced, run `*test-design` in **system-level** mode before the implementation-readiness gate. This ensures the ADR has an attached testability review and ADR → test mapping. Keep the test-design updated if ADRs change.
 
-## Why TEA is Different from Other BMM Agents
+## Why TEA Is Different from Other BMM Agents
 
-TEA is the only BMM agent that operates in **multiple phases** (Phase 3 and Phase 4) and has its own **knowledge base architecture**.
+TEA spans multiple phases (Phase 3, Phase 4, and the release gate). Most BMM agents operate in a single phase. That multi-phase role is paired with a dedicated testing knowledge base so standards stay consistent across projects.
-
-### Phase-Specific Agents (Standard Pattern)
-
-Most BMM agents work in a single phase:
-
-- **Phase 1 (Analysis)**: Analyst agent
-- **Phase 2 (Planning)**: PM agent
-- **Phase 3 (Solutioning)**: Architect agent
-- **Phase 4 (Implementation)**: SM, DEV agents
-
-### TEA: Multi-Phase Quality Agent (Unique Pattern)
-
-TEA is **the only agent that operates in multiple phases**:
-
-```
-Phase 1 (Analysis) → [TEA not typically used]
-    ↓
-Phase 2 (Planning) → [PM defines requirements - TEA not active]
-    ↓
-Phase 3 (Solutioning) → TEA: *framework, *ci (test infrastructure AFTER architecture)
-    ↓
-Phase 4 (Implementation) → TEA: *test-design (per epic: "how do I test THIS feature?")
-                        → TEA: *atdd, *automate, *test-review, *trace (per story)
-    ↓
-Epic/Release Gate → TEA: *nfr-assess, *trace Phase 2 (release decision)
-```

-- Clarification: `*atdd` outputs are not auto-consumed; share the ATDD doc/tests with the dev workflow. `*trace` does not run `*atdd`—it evaluates existing artifacts for coverage and gate readiness.

-## Playwright Utils Integration
-
-TEA optionally integrates with `@seontechnologies/playwright-utils`, an open-source library providing fixture-based utilities for Playwright tests. This integration enhances TEA's test generation and review workflows with production-ready patterns.
-
-<details>
-<summary><strong>Installation & Configuration</strong></summary>
-
-**Package**: `@seontechnologies/playwright-utils` ([npm](https://www.npmjs.com/package/@seontechnologies/playwright-utils) | [GitHub](https://github.com/seontechnologies/playwright-utils))
-
-**Install**: `npm install -D @seontechnologies/playwright-utils`
-
-**Enable during BMAD installation** by answering "Yes" when prompted, or manually set `tea_use_playwright_utils: true` in `_bmad/bmm/config.yaml`.
-
-**To disable**: Set `tea_use_playwright_utils: false` in `_bmad/bmm/config.yaml`.

-<summary><strong>How Playwright Utils Enhances TEA Workflows</strong></summary>
-
-1. `*framework`:
-   - Default: Basic Playwright scaffold
-   - **+ playwright-utils**: Scaffold with api-request, network-recorder, auth-session, burn-in, network-error-monitor fixtures pre-configured
-
-   Benefit: Production-ready patterns from day one
-
-2. `*automate`, `*atdd`:
-   - Default: Standard test patterns
-   - **+ playwright-utils**: Tests using api-request (schema validation), intercept-network-call (mocking), recurse (polling), log (structured logging), file-utils (CSV/PDF)
-
-   Benefit: Advanced patterns without boilerplate
-
-3. `*test-review`:
-   - Default: Reviews against core knowledge base (22 fragments)
-   - **+ playwright-utils**: Reviews against expanded knowledge base (33 fragments: 22 core + 11 playwright-utils)
-
-   Benefit: Reviews include fixture composition, auth patterns, network recording best practices
-
-4. `*ci`:
-   - Default: Standard CI workflow
-   - **+ playwright-utils**: CI workflow with burn-in script (smart test selection) and network-error-monitor integration
-
-   Benefit: Faster CI feedback, HTTP error detection
-
-**Utilities available** (10 total): api-request, network-recorder, auth-session, intercept-network-call, recurse, log, file-utils, burn-in, network-error-monitor, fixtures-composition

-## Playwright MCP Enhancements
-
-TEA can leverage Playwright MCP servers to enhance test generation with live browser verification. MCP provides interactive capabilities on top of TEA's default AI-based approach.

 **Two Playwright MCP servers** (actively maintained, continuously updated):
 
 - `playwright` - Browser automation (`npx @playwright/mcp@latest`)
 - `playwright-test` - Test runner with failure analysis (`npx playwright run-test-mcp-server`)

-
-1. `*test-design`:
-   - Default: Analysis + documentation
-   - **+ MCP**: Interactive UI discovery with `browser_navigate`, `browser_click`, `browser_snapshot`, behavior observation
-
-   Benefit: Discover actual functionality, edge cases, undocumented features
-
-2. `*atdd`, `*automate`:
-   - Default: Infers selectors and interactions from requirements and knowledge fragments
-   - **+ MCP**: Generates tests **then** verifies with `generator_setup_page`, `browser_*` tools, validates against live app
-
-   Benefit: Accurate selectors from real DOM, verified behavior, refined test code
-
-3. `*automate` (healing mode):
-   - Default: Pattern-based fixes from error messages + knowledge fragments
-   - **+ MCP**: Pattern fixes **enhanced with** `browser_snapshot`, `browser_console_messages`, `browser_network_requests`, `browser_generate_locator`
-
-   Benefit: Visual failure context, live DOM inspection, root cause discovery
