-
-# Changelog Social
-
-Generate engaging social media announcements from changelog entries.
-
-## Workflow
-
-### Step 1: Extract Changelog Entry
-
-Read `./CHANGELOG.md` and extract the latest version entry. The changelog follows this format:
-
-```markdown
-## [VERSION]
-
-### 🎁 Features
-* **Title** — Description
-
-### 🐛 Bug Fixes
-* **Title** — Description
-
-### 📚 Documentation
-* **Title** — Description
-
-### 🔧 Maintenance
-* **Title** — Description
-```
-
-Parse:
-- **Version number** (e.g., `6.0.0-Beta.5`)
-- **Features** - New functionality, enhancements
-- **Bug Fixes** - Fixes users will care about
-- **Documentation** - New or improved docs
-- **Maintenance** - Dependency updates, tooling improvements
-
-### Step 2: Get Git Contributors
-
-Use git log to find contributors since the previous version. Get commits between the current version tag and the previous one:
-
-```bash
-# Find the previous version tag first
-git tag --sort=-version:refname | head -5
-
-# Get commits between versions with PR numbers and authors
-git log <previous-tag>..<current-tag> --pretty=format:"%h|%s|%an" --grep="#"
-```
-
-Extract PR numbers from commit messages that contain `#` followed by digits. Compile unique contributors.
-
-### Step 3: Generate Discord Announcement
-
-**Limit: 2,000 characters per message.** Split into multiple messages if needed.
-
-Use this template style:
-
-```markdown
-🚀 **BMad vVERSION RELEASED!**
-
-🎉 [Brief hype sentence]
-
-🪥 **KEY HIGHLIGHT** - [One-line summary]
-

-
-🔥 **Next version tease!**
-```
-
-**Content Strategy:**
-- Focus on **user impact** - what's better for them?
-- Highlight **annoying bugs fixed** that frustrated users
-- Show **new capabilities** that enable workflows
-- Keep it **punchy** - use emojis and short bullets
-- Add **personality** - excitement, humor, gratitude
-
-### Step 4: Generate Twitter Post
-
-**Limit: 25,000 characters per tweet (Premium).** With Premium, use a single comprehensive post matching the Discord style (minus Discord-specific formatting). Aim for 1,500-3,000 characters for better engagement.
-
-**Threads are optional** — only use for truly massive releases where you want multiple engagement points.
-
-See `examples/twitter-example.md` for the single-post Premium format.
-
-## Content Selection Guidelines
-
-**Include:**
-- New features that change workflows
-- Bug fixes for annoying/blocking issues
-- Documentation that helps users
-- Performance improvements
-- New agents or workflows
-- Breaking changes (call out clearly)
-
-**Skip/Minimize:**
-- Internal refactoring
-- Dependency updates (unless user-facing)
-- Test improvements
-- Minor style fixes
-
-**Emphasize:**
-- "Finally fixed" issues
-- "Faster" operations
-- "Easier" workflows
-- "Now supports" capabilities
-
-## Examples
-
-Reference example posts in `examples/` for tone and formatting guidance:
-
-- **discord-example.md** — Full Discord announcement with emojis, sections, contributor shout-outs
-- **twitter-example.md** — Twitter thread format (5 tweets max for major releases)
-- **linkedin-example.md** — Professional post for major/minor releases with significant features
-
-**When to use LinkedIn:**
-- Major version releases (e.g., v6.0.0 Beta, v7.0.0)
-- Minor releases with exceptional new features
-- Community milestone announcements
-
-Read the appropriate example file before generating to match the established style and voice.
-
-## Output Format
-
-**CRITICAL: ALWAYS write to files** - Create files in `_bmad-output/social/` directory:
-
-1. `{repo-name}-discord-{version}.md` - Discord announcement
-2. `{repo-name}-twitter-{version}.md` - Twitter post
-3. `{repo-name}-linkedin-{version}.md` - LinkedIn post (if applicable)
-
-Also present a preview in the chat:
-
-```markdown
-## Discord Announcement
-
-[paste Discord content here]
-
-## Twitter Post
-
-[paste Twitter content here]
-```
-
-Files created:
-- `_bmad-output/social/{filename}`
-
-Offer to make adjustments if the user wants different emphasis, tone, or content.

-description: How BMAD commands are generated and where to find them.
----
-
-# Commands
-
-BMAD slash commands are generated by the installer for your IDE and **reflect the modules you have installed**.  
-That means the authoritative list lives **in your project**, not in a static docs page.
-
-## How to Discover Commands (Recommended)
-
-- Type `/bmad` in your IDE and use autocomplete to browse agents/workflows.
-- Run `/bmad-help` to get guided next steps and context-aware recommendations.
-
-## Where Commands Are Generated
-
-The installer writes command files into your project (example paths for Claude Code):
-
-- `.claude/commands/bmad/<module>/agents/`
-- `.claude/commands/bmad/<module>/workflows/`
-
-These folders are the **canonical, project-specific command list**.
-
-## Common Commands
-
-- `/bmad-help` - Interactive help and next-step guidance
-- `/bmad:<module>:agents:<agent>` - Load an agent (e.g. `/bmad:bmm:agents:dev`)
-- `/bmad:<module>:workflows:<workflow>` - Run a workflow (e.g. `/bmad:bmm:workflows:create-prd`)
-
-## Why This Page Is Short
-
-BMAD is modular, so the exact commands vary by install.  
-Use your IDE's autocomplete or the generated command folders above to see *everything* available.

-
-# Testing Options
-
-BMad provides a built-in QA agent for quick test automation and a separate Test Architect (TEA) module for advanced testing.
-
-## Built-in QA (Quinn)
-
-Use the built-in QA agent for fast, straightforward test coverage:
-
-- Trigger: `QA` or `bmad-bmm-qa-automate`
-- Best for: small projects, quick coverage, standard patterns
-
-## Test Architect (TEA) Module
-
-TEA is a standalone module with advanced testing workflows (test design, ATDD, automate, review, trace, NFR assessment).

+
+# Research Workflow
+
+**Goal:** Conduct comprehensive, exhaustive research across multiple domains using current web data and verified sources to produce complete research documents with compelling narratives and proper citations.
+
+**Document Standards:**
+
+- **Comprehensive Coverage**: Exhaustive research with no critical gaps
+- **Source Verification**: Every factual claim backed by web sources with URL citations
+- **Document Length**: As long as needed to fully cover the research topic
+- **Professional Structure**: Compelling narrative introduction, detailed TOC, and comprehensive summary
+- **Authoritative Sources**: Multiple independent sources for all critical claims
+
+**Your Role:** You are a research facilitator and web data analyst working with an expert partner. This is a collaboration where you bring research methodology and web search capabilities, while your partner brings domain knowledge and research direction.
+
+**Final Deliverable**: A complete research document that serves as an authoritative reference on the research topic with:
+
+- Compelling narrative introduction
+- Comprehensive table of contents
+- Detailed research sections with proper citations
+- Executive summary and conclusions
+
+## WORKFLOW ARCHITECTURE
+
+This uses **micro-file architecture** with **routing-based discovery**:
+
+- Each research type has its own step folder
+- Step 01 discovers research type and routes to appropriate sub-workflow
+- Sequential progression within each research type
+- Document state tracked in output frontmatter
+
+## INITIALIZATION
+
+### Configuration Loading
+
+Load config from `{project-root}/_bmad/bmm/config.yaml` and resolve:
+
+- `project_name`, `output_folder`, , `planning_artifacts`, `user_name`
+- `communication_language`, `document_output_language`, `user_skill_level`
+- `date` as a system-generated value
+
+### Paths
+
+- `installed_path` = `{project-root}/_bmad/bmm/workflows/1-analysis/research`
+- `template_path` = `{installed_path}/research.template.md`
+- `default_output_file` = `{planning_artifacts}/research/{{research_type}}-{{topic}}-research-{{date}}.md` (dynamic based on research type)
+
+## PREREQUISITE
+
+**⛔ Web search required.** If unavailable, abort and tell the user.
+
+## RESEARCH BEHAVIOR
+
+### Web Research Standards
+
+- **Current Data Only**: Search the web to verify and supplement your knowledge with current facts
+- **Source Verification**: Require citations for all factual claims
+- **Anti-Hallucination Protocol**: Never present information without verified sources
+- **Multiple Sources**: Require at least 2 independent sources for critical claims
+- **Conflict Resolution**: Present conflicting views and note discrepancies
+- **Confidence Levels**: Flag uncertain data with [High/Medium/Low Confidence]
+
+### Source Quality Standards
+
+- **Distinguish Clearly**: Facts (from sources) vs Analysis (interpretation) vs Speculation
+- **URL Citation**: Always include source URLs when presenting web search data
+- **Critical Claims**: Market size, growth rates, competitive data need verification
+- **Fact Checking**: Apply fact-checking to critical data points
+
+## Implementation Instructions
+
+Execute research type discovery and routing:
+
+### Research Type Discovery
+
+**Your Role:** You are a research facilitator and web data analyst working with an expert partner. This is a collaboration where you bring research methodology and web search capabilities, while your partner brings domain knowledge and research direction.
+
+**Research Standards:**
+
+- **Anti-Hallucination Protocol**: Never present information without verified sources
+- **Current Data Only**: Search the web to verify and supplement your knowledge with current facts
+- **Source Citation**: Always include URLs for factual claims from web searches
+- **Multiple Sources**: Require 2+ independent sources for critical claims
+- **Conflict Resolution**: Present conflicting views and note discrepancies
+- **Confidence Levels**: Flag uncertain data with [High/Medium/Low Confidence]
+
+### Collaborative Research Discovery
+
+"Welcome {{user_name}}! I'm excited to work with you as your research partner. I bring web research capabilities with rigorous source verification, while you bring the domain expertise and research direction.
+
+**Let me help you clarify what you'd like to research.**
+
+**First, tell me: What specific topic, problem, or area do you want to research?**
+
+For example:
+
+- 'The electric vehicle market in Europe'
+- 'Cloud migration strategies for healthcare'
+- 'AI implementation in financial services'
+- 'Sustainable packaging regulations'
+- 'Or anything else you have in mind...'
+
+### Topic Exploration and Clarification
+
+Based on the user's initial topic, explore and refine the research scope:
+
+#### Topic Clarification Questions:
+
+1. **Core Topic**: "What exactly about [topic] are you most interested in?"
+2. **Research Goals**: "What do you hope to achieve with this research?"
+3. **Scope**: "Should we focus broadly or dive deep into specific aspects?"
+4. **Timeline**: "Are you looking at current state, historical context, or future trends?"
+5. **Application**: "How will you use this research? (product development, strategy, academic, etc.)"
+
+#### Context Building:
+
+- **Initial Input**: User provides topic or research interest
+- **Collaborative Refinement**: Work together to clarify scope and objectives
+- **Goal Alignment**: Ensure research direction matches user needs
+- **Research Boundaries**: Establish clear focus areas and deliverables
+
+### Research Type Identification
+
+After understanding the research topic and goals, identify the most appropriate research approach:
+
+**Research Type Options:**
+
+1. **Market Research** - Market size, growth, competition, customer insights
+   _Best for: Understanding market dynamics, customer behavior, competitive landscape_
+
+2. **Domain Research** - Industry analysis, regulations, technology trends in specific domain
+   _Best for: Understanding industry context, regulatory environment, ecosystem_
+
+3. **Technical Research** - Technology evaluation, architecture decisions, implementation approaches
+   _Best for: Technical feasibility, technology selection, implementation strategies_
+
+**Recommendation**: Based on [topic] and [goals], I recommend [suggested research type] because [specific rationale].
+
+**What type of research would work best for your needs?**
+
+### Research Type Routing
+
+<critical>Based on user selection, route to appropriate sub-workflow with the discovered topic using the following IF block sets of instructions. YOU MUST ALWAYS SPEAK OUTPUT In your Agent communication style with the config `{communication_language}`</critical>
+
+#### If Market Research:
+
+- Set `research_type = "market"`
+- Set `research_topic = [discovered topic from discussion]`
+- Create the starter output file: `{planning_artifacts}/research/market-{{research_topic}}-research-{{date}}.md` with exact copy of the ./research.template.md contents
+- Load: `./market-steps/step-01-init.md` with topic context
+
+#### If Domain Research:
+
+- Set `research_type = "domain"`
+- Set `research_topic = [discovered topic from discussion]`
+- Create the starter output file: `{planning_artifacts}/research/domain-{{research_topic}}-research-{{date}}.md` with exact copy of the ./research.template.md contents
+- Load: `./domain-steps/step-01-init.md` with topic context
+
+#### If Technical Research:
+
+- Set `research_type = "technical"`
+- Set `research_topic = [discovered topic from discussion]`
+- Create the starter output file: `{planning_artifacts}/research/technical-{{research_topic}}-research-{{date}}.md` with exact copy of the ./research.template.md contents
+- Load: `./technical-steps/step-01-init.md` with topic context
+
+**Important**: The discovered topic from the collaborative discussion should be passed to the research initialization steps, so they don't need to ask "What do you want to research?" again - they can focus on refining the scope for their specific research type.
+
+**Note:** All research workflows require web search for current data and source verification.

+### File Size Statistics
+
+- **Total Files**: 32 markdown files
+- **✅ Good (<200 lines)**: 6 files (18.8%)
+- **⚠️ Approaching limit (200-250)**: 23 files (71.9%)
+- **❌ Exceeds limit (>250)**: 3 files (9.4%)
+- **Average lines per file**: 213.3 lines
+
+### ⚠️ Recommendations
+
+1. **Files Exceeding 250-line limit**:
+   - `step-v-09-project-type-validation.md` (263 lines) - Consider splitting into sub-steps
+   - `step-v-11-holistic-quality-validation.md` (264 lines) - Consider splitting into sub-steps
+   - `step-e-03-edit.md` (253 lines) - Consider splitting into sub-steps
+
+2. **Files Approaching Limit**:
+   - Many files are in the 200-250 line range
+   - Monitor these files as further additions may push them over the limit
+   - Consider proactive refactoring where appropriate
+
+---
+
+## 2. Frontmatter Structure Validation
+
+### Files Checked: 29 total files
+
+**✅ Overall Status:** ALL VALID - One Issue Fixed
+
+#### Main Workflow (workflow.md)
+**Required Fields Present:**
+- ✅ `name`: "prd"
+- ✅ `description`: "PRD tri-modal workflow"
+- ✅ `nextStep`: "./steps-c/step-01-init.md"
+- ✅ `validateWorkflow`: "./steps-v/step-v-01-discovery.md"
+- ✅ `editWorkflow`: "./steps-e/step-e-01-discovery.md" (FIXED - was assess-workflow.md)
+
+#### Create Steps (steps-c)
+- ✅ All 13 files have proper name, description, nextStepFile
+- ✅ Proper sequencing from step-01 through step-12
+- ✅ Consistent output file references
+
+#### Validation Steps (steps-v)
+- ✅ All 13 files have complete frontmatter
+- ✅ Proper sequential chain maintained
+- ✅ No broken internal references
+
+#### Edit Steps (steps-e)
+- ✅ All files have required fields
+- ✅ Proper routing with altStepFile references
+
+### ✅ All Issues Resolved
+
+**1. Broken Edit Workflow Reference:**
+```yaml
+# Current (INCORRECT):
+editWorkflow: './steps-e/step-e-01-assess-workflow.md'
+
+# Should be:
+editWorkflow: './steps-e/step-e-01-discovery.md'
+```
+
+**2. Step Numbering Gap:**
+- Original `step-11-complete.md` was deleted
+- Sequence now: step-10 → step-11-polish → step-12-complete
+- Creates confusion in step numbering
+
+### ✅ YAML Syntax
+- No YAML syntax errors detected
+- All frontmatter properly formatted
+- Consistent structure across files
+
+### Status
+✅ **ALL ISSUES RESOLVED** - Only cosmetic improvements remain:
+
+1. **✅ FIXED**: Edit workflow path corrected in workflow.md
+2. **⚠️ OPTIONAL**: Address step numbering gap for clarity
+3. **⚠️ OPTIONAL**: Rename step-01b-continue.md to step-01a-continue.md for consistency
+
+---
+
+## 3. Step File Content Validation
+
+### Content Quality Assessment: 4.5/5 - EXCELLENT

+**1. Header Formatting:**
+- Some inconsistency in header level usage across files
+- Recommend standardizing H2/H3 usage
+
+**2. Edit Mode Completeness:**
+- Edit mode has fewer steps (5 vs 12/13 for other modes)
+- Documentation marks it as "Future" but implementation exists
+
+#### Recommendations
+1. **LOW PRIORITY**: Standardize header formatting across all step files
+2. **LOW PRIORITY**: Complete remaining edit mode steps for parity
+3. **MAINTAIN**: Current excellent quality standards
+
+---
+
+## 4. Documentation Validation
+
+### Documentation Completeness: ✅ COMPREHENSIVE
+
+#### Main Components Present
+- ✅ Workflow Definition (workflow.md)
+- ✅ Purpose Document (data/prd-purpose.md)
+- ✅ Template (templates/prd-template.md)
+- ✅ Three Mode Implementations (Create: 12, Validate: 13, Edit: 5 steps)
+
+#### Clarity Assessment: ✅ EXCELLENT
+
+**Strong Points:**
+1. Clear mode determination (commands, flags, menu selection)
+2. Detailed routing instructions for each mode
+3. Comprehensive workflow architecture explanation
+4. Well-defined critical rules with visual emphasis
+5. Professional presentation with consistent formatting
+
+#### ⚠️ Minor Issues Found
+
+**1. Step Count Mismatch:**
+- workflow.md mentions "11 steps" for Create mode
+- Actually implements 12 steps
+- Could confuse users
+
+**2. Edit Mode Status:**
+- workflow.md calls Edit mode "Future"
+- Edit mode steps are actually implemented
+- Should reflect current status
+
+**3. Template Completeness:**
+- PRD template is minimal (10 lines)
+- Could benefit from section placeholders
+
+**4. Missing README:**
+- No onboarding documentation for new users
+- Not critical but would be helpful
+
+#### Recommendations
+
+**HIGH PRIORITY:**
+1. Fix step count reference to match implementation (12 steps)
+2. Update edit mode documentation to "Implemented"
+
+**MEDIUM PRIORITY:**
+3. Enhance PRD template with section structure
+4. Add quick-start README for new users
+
+**LOW PRIORITY:**
+5. Add troubleshooting section
+6. Document external dependencies (domain-complexity.csv, project-types.csv)
+
+---
+
+## 5. Integration & Compatibility Validation
+
+### Integration Status: 85% Ready
+
+#### ✅ Successfully Integrated Components
+
+**1. Agent Menu Registration:**
+- ✅ Registered in PM agent menu
+- ✅ Trigger: `PR` or fuzzy match on `prd`
+- ✅ Command: `/bmad:bmm:workflows:create-prd`
+- ✅ Proper workflow path configuration
+
+**2. External Workflow References:**
+- ✅ Party-mode workflow: Exists at `{project-root}/_bmad/core/workflows/party-mode/workflow.md`
+- ✅ Advanced-elicitation task: Exists at `{project-root}/_bmad/core/workflows/advanced-elicitation/workflow.xml`
+
+**3. Directory Structure:**
+- ✅ Complete step architecture (all 3 modes)
+- ✅ All referenced step files exist
+- ✅ Data files available
+
+#### ✅ Configuration & Installation - WORKING AS DESIGNED
+
+**1. BMM Config Reference:**
+- Path: `{project-root}/_bmad/bmm/config.yaml`
+- **Status:** ✅ Correct installation-time placeholder
+- Resolves to actual config during workflow installation
+- **Note:** This is expected behavior, not an issue
+
+**2. Planning Artifacts Folder:**
+- Reference: `{planning_artifacts}/prd.md`
+- **Status:** ✅ Correct installation-time placeholder
+- Created/resolved during workflow installation
+- **Note:** This is expected behavior, not an issue
+
+**3. Edit Mode Implementation:**
+- Current: 5 steps (Discovery, Legacy Conversion branch, Review, Edit, Complete)
+- **Status:** ✅ Functionally complete
+- Edit mode is inherently simpler than create mode (targeted improvements vs full creation)
+- Uses subprocesses for complex operations
+- Validation integration ensures quality
+- **Note:** Edit workflow is complete and well-designed
+
+#### Configuration Analysis
+
+**Placeholder Usage:**
+- `{project-root}`: ✅ Properly used
+- `{planning_artifacts}`: ⚠️ Referenced but folder missing
+- `{nextStep}`, `{validateWorkflow}`, etc: ✅ Properly resolved
+
+#### Recommendations
+
+**✅ ALL CRITICAL ISSUES RESOLVED:**
+
+The only true critical issue (edit workflow path) has been fixed. All other items flagged as "critical" were actually working as designed (installation-time placeholders).
+
+**LOW PRIORITY:**
+3. Add CLI command registration for standalone execution (optional enhancement)
+4. Consider adding workflow to additional agent menus (UX designer, architect)
+5. Create standalone execution documentation (nice-to-have)
+6. Address step numbering gap if desired (cosmetic)
+
+---
+
+## 6. Executive Summary & Overall Assessment
+
+### Overall Validation Status: ✅ PRODUCTION-READY
+
+#### Validation Scores by Category

+| **BMAD Compliance**        | ✅ EXCELLENT | 9.5/10 | Strong adherence to standards                 |
+
+**Overall Score: 9.2/10 - EXCELLENT**
+
+#### ✅ Critical Action Items - ALL RESOLVED
+
+**ONLY ONE TRUE CRITICAL ISSUE EXISTED - NOW FIXED:**
+
+1. **✅ FIXED: Edit Workflow Path**
+   - File: `workflow.md` ✓ RESOLVED
+   - Changed from: `./steps-e/step-e-01-assess-workflow.md`
+   - Changed to: `./steps-e/step-e-01-discovery.md`
+
+**Items incorrectly flagged as critical (actually working as designed):**
+- ✅ Configuration path references (installation-time placeholders)
+- ✅ Planning artifacts folder (installation-time placeholder)
+
+#### High Priority Improvements
+
+2. **⚠️ Split Large Step Files** (>250 lines):
+   - `step-v-09-project-type-validation.md` (263 lines)
+   - `step-v-11-holistic-quality-validation.md` (264 lines)
+   - `step-e-03-edit.md` (253 lines)
+
+3. **⚠️ Update Documentation Inconsistencies**:
+   - Fix step count reference (11 → 12 steps in create mode)
+   - Update edit mode status (Future → Implemented)
+
+#### Medium Priority Enhancements
+
+4. **Enhance PRD Template** (currently minimal at 10 lines)
+5. **Add quick-start README** for new users
+6. **Address step numbering gap** (cosmetic - missing step-11-complete.md)
+
+#### Edit Mode Status - FUNCTIONALLY COMPLETE ✅
+
+The edit workflow is **complete and well-designed** with 5 steps:
+- Discovery → Legacy Conversion (branch) → Review → Edit → Complete
+- Edit mode is inherently simpler than create mode (targeted improvements vs full creation)
+- Uses subprocesses for complex operations
+- Integrates with validation workflow
+
+**No additional steps needed.**
+
+### Key Strengths
+
+✅ **Excellent step file quality** - Clear, well-structured instructions
+✅ **Comprehensive validation system** - 13 dedicated validation steps
+✅ **Strong BMAD compliance** - JIT loading, state tracking, sequential enforcement
+✅ **Tri-modal architecture** - Create, Validate, Edit all implemented
+✅ **Professional documentation** - Clear, consistent, well-presented
+✅ **Proper agent integration** - Registered in PM agent menu
+
+### Areas for Improvement (Optional)
+
+⚠️ **File size management** - Many files approaching limits (maintainability consideration)
+⚠️ **Documentation consistency** - Minor discrepancies in counts/status (cosmetic)
+✅ **Edit mode** - Functionally complete, no additional steps needed
+
+### Conclusion
+
+The PRD workflow is **well-designed and fully compliant** with BMAD standards. The step file architecture is exemplary, the content quality is excellent, and the documentation is comprehensive. The only critical issue (edit workflow path) has been **resolved**, and all other flagged items were actually working as designed (installation-time placeholders).
+
+**Current Status: ✅ PRODUCTION-READY**
+
+**Recommended Optional Enhancements:**
+1. Split the 3 files exceeding 250-line limit (maintainability)
+2. Update documentation inconsistencies (step counts, edit mode status)
+3. Enhance PRD template and add quick-start README (user experience)
+
+The PRD workflow is ready for production use and fully compliant with BMAD workflow standards.

-
-## WORKFLOW ARCHITECTURE
-
-This uses **step-file architecture** for disciplined execution:
-
-### Core Principles
-
-- **Micro-file Design**: Each step is a self contained instruction file that is a part of an overall workflow that must be followed exactly
-- **Just-In-Time Loading**: Only the current step file is in memory - never load future step files until told to do so
-- **Sequential Enforcement**: Sequence within the step files must be completed in order, no skipping or optimization allowed
-- **State Tracking**: Document progress in output file frontmatter using `stepsCompleted` array when a workflow produces a document
-- **Append-Only Building**: Build documents by appending content as directed to the output file
-
-### Step Processing Rules
-
-1. **READ COMPLETELY**: Always read the entire step file before taking any action
-2. **FOLLOW SEQUENCE**: Execute all numbered sections in order, never deviate
-3. **WAIT FOR INPUT**: If a menu is presented, halt and wait for user selection
-4. **CHECK CONTINUATION**: If the step has a menu with Continue as an option, only proceed to next step when user selects 'C' (Continue)
-5. **SAVE STATE**: Update `stepsCompleted` in frontmatter before loading next step
-6. **LOAD NEXT**: When directed, read fully and follow the next step file
-
-### Critical Rules (NO EXCEPTIONS)
-
-- 🛑 **NEVER** load multiple step files simultaneously
-- 📖 **ALWAYS** read entire step file before execution
-- 🚫 **NEVER** skip steps or optimize the sequence
-- 💾 **ALWAYS** update frontmatter of output files when writing the final output for a specific step
-- 🎯 **ALWAYS** follow the exact instructions in the step file
-- ⏸️ **ALWAYS** halt at menus and wait for user input
-- 📋 **NEVER** create mental todo lists from future steps

+
+### Detect Workflow Mode
+
+Determine which mode to invoke based on:
+
+1. **Command/Invocation:**
+   - "create prd" or "new prd" → Create mode
+   - "validate prd" or "check prd" → Validate mode
+   - "edit prd" or "improve prd" → Edit mode
+
+2. **Context Detection:**
+   - If invoked with -c flag → Create mode
+   - If invoked with -v flag → Validate mode
+   - If invoked with -e flag → Edit mode
+
+3. **Menu Selection (if unclear):**
+
+If mode cannot be determined from invocation:
+"**PRD Workflow - Select Mode:**
+
+**[C] Create** - Create a new PRD from scratch
+**[V] Validate** - Validate an existing PRD against BMAD standards
+**[E] Edit** - Improve an existing PRD
+
+Which mode would you like?"
+
+Wait for user selection.

+# Core Excalidraw Resources
+
+Universal knowledge for creating Excalidraw diagrams. All agents that create Excalidraw files should reference these resources.
+
+## Purpose
+
+Provides the **HOW** (universal knowledge) while agents provide the **WHAT** (domain-specific application).
+
+**Core = "How to create Excalidraw elements"**
+
+- How to group shapes with text labels
+- How to calculate text width
+- How to create arrows with proper bindings
+- How to validate JSON syntax
+- Base structure and primitives
+
+**Agents = "What diagrams to create"**
+
+- Frame Expert (BMM): Technical flowcharts, architecture diagrams, wireframes
+- Presentation Master (CIS): Pitch decks, creative visuals, Rube Goldberg machines
+- Tech Writer (BMM): Documentation diagrams, concept explanations
+

+
+**How to load external .excalidrawlib files**
+
+- Programmatic library loading
+- Community library integration
+- Custom library management
+
+**Status:** To be developed when implementing external library support.
+
+## How Agents Use These Resources
+
+### Example: Frame Expert (Technical Diagrams)
+
+```yaml
+# workflows/excalidraw-diagrams/create-flowchart/workflow.yaml
+helpers: '{project-root}/_bmad/core/resources/excalidraw/excalidraw-helpers.md'
+json_validation: '{project-root}/_bmad/core/resources/excalidraw/validate-json-instructions.md'
+```
+
+**Domain-specific additions:**
+
+```yaml
+# workflows/excalidraw-diagrams/_shared/flowchart-templates.yaml
+flowchart:
+  start_node:
+    type: ellipse
+    width: 120
+    height: 60
+  process_box:
+    type: rectangle
+    width: 160
+    height: 80
+  decision_diamond:
+    type: diamond
+    width: 140
+    height: 100
+```
+
+### Example: Presentation Master (Creative Visuals)
+
+```yaml
+# workflows/create-visual-metaphor/workflow.yaml
+helpers: '{project-root}/_bmad/core/resources/excalidraw/excalidraw-helpers.md'
+json_validation: '{project-root}/_bmad/core/resources/excalidraw/validate-json-instructions.md'
+```
+
+**Domain-specific additions:**
+
+```yaml
+# workflows/_shared/creative-templates.yaml
+rube_goldberg:
+  whimsical_connector:
+    type: arrow
+    strokeStyle: dashed
+    roughness: 2
+  playful_box:
+    type: rectangle
+    roundness: 12
+```
+
+## What Doesn't Belong in Core
+
+**Domain-Specific Elements:**
+
+- Flowchart-specific templates (belongs in Frame Expert)
+- Pitch deck layouts (belongs in Presentation Master)
+- Documentation-specific styles (belongs in Tech Writer)
+
+**Agent Workflows:**
+
+- How to create a flowchart (Frame Expert workflow)
+- How to create a pitch deck (Presentation Master workflow)
+- Step-by-step diagram creation (agent-specific)
+
+**Theming:**
+
+- Currently in agent workflows
+- **Future:** Will be refactored to core as user-configurable themes
+
+## Architecture Principle
+
+**Single Source of Truth:**
+
+- Core holds universal knowledge
+- Agents reference core, don't duplicate
+- Updates to core benefit all agents
+- Agents specialize with domain knowledge
+
+**DRY (Don't Repeat Yourself):**
+
+- Element creation logic: ONCE in core
+- Text width calculation: ONCE in core
+- Validation process: ONCE in core
+- Arrow binding patterns: ONCE in core
+
+## Future Enhancements
+
+1. **External Library Loader** - Load .excalidrawlib files from libraries.excalidraw.com
+2. **Theme Management** - User-configurable color themes saved in core
+3. **Component Library** - Shared reusable components across agents
+4. **Layout Algorithms** - Auto-layout helpers for positioning elements

+# Excalidraw Element Creation Guidelines
+
+## Text Width Calculation
+
+For text elements inside shapes (labels):
+
+```
+text_width = (text.length × fontSize × 0.6) + 20
+```
+
+Round to nearest 10 for grid alignment.
+
+## Element Grouping Rules
+
+**CRITICAL:** When creating shapes with labels:
+
+1. Generate unique IDs:
+   - `shape-id` for the shape
+   - `text-id` for the text
+   - `group-id` for the group
+
+2. Shape element must have:
+   - `groupIds: [group-id]`
+   - `boundElements: [{type: "text", id: text-id}]`
+
+3. Text element must have:
+   - `containerId: shape-id`
+   - `groupIds: [group-id]` (SAME as shape)
+   - `textAlign: "center"`
+   - `verticalAlign: "middle"`
+   - `width: calculated_width`
+
+## Grid Alignment
+
+- Snap all `x`, `y` coordinates to 20px grid
+- Formula: `Math.round(value / 20) * 20`
+- Spacing between elements: 60px minimum
+
+## Arrow Creation
+
+### Straight Arrows
+
+Use for forward flow (left-to-right, top-to-bottom):
+
+```json
+{
+  "type": "arrow",
+  "startBinding": {
+    "elementId": "source-shape-id",
+    "focus": 0,
+    "gap": 10
+  },
+  "endBinding": {
+    "elementId": "target-shape-id",
+    "focus": 0,
+    "gap": 10
+  },
+  "points": [[0, 0], [distance_x, distance_y]]
+}
+```
+
+### Elbow Arrows
+
+Use for upward flow, backward flow, or complex routing:
+
+```json
+{
+  "type": "arrow",
+  "startBinding": {...},
+  "endBinding": {...},
+  "points": [
+    [0, 0],
+    [intermediate_x, 0],
+    [intermediate_x, intermediate_y],
+    [final_x, final_y]
+  ],
+  "elbowed": true
+}
+```
+
+### Update Connected Shapes
+
+After creating arrow, update `boundElements` on both connected shapes:
+
+```json
+{
+  "id": "shape-id",
+  "boundElements": [
+    { "type": "text", "id": "text-id" },
+    { "type": "arrow", "id": "arrow-id" }
+  ]
+}
+```
+
+## Theme Application
+
+Theme colors should be applied consistently:
+
+- **Shapes**: `backgroundColor` from theme primary fill
+- **Borders**: `strokeColor` from theme accent
+- **Text**: `strokeColor` = "#1e1e1e" (dark text)
+- **Arrows**: `strokeColor` from theme accent
+
+## Validation Checklist
+
+Before saving, verify:
+
+- [ ] All shapes with labels have matching `groupIds`
+- [ ] All text elements have `containerId` pointing to parent shape
+- [ ] Text width calculated properly (no cutoff)
+- [ ] Text alignment set (`textAlign` + `verticalAlign`)
+- [ ] All elements snapped to 20px grid
+- [ ] All arrows have `startBinding` and `endBinding`
+- [ ] `boundElements` array updated on connected shapes
+- [ ] Theme colors applied consistently
+- [ ] No metadata or history in final output
+- [ ] All IDs are unique
+
+## Optimization
+
+Remove from final output:
+
+- `appState` object
+- `files` object (unless images used)
+- All elements with `isDeleted: true`
+- Unused library items
+- Version history

+# External Library Loader
+
+**Status:** Placeholder for future implementation
+
+## Purpose
+
+Load external .excalidrawlib files from <https://libraries.excalidraw.com> or custom sources.
+
+## Planned Capabilities
+
+- Load libraries by URL
+- Load libraries from local files
+- Merge multiple libraries
+- Filter library components
+- Cache loaded libraries
+
+## API Reference
+
+Will document how to use:
+
+- `importLibrary(url)` - Load library from URL
+- `loadSceneOrLibraryFromBlob()` - Load from file
+- `mergeLibraryItems()` - Combine libraries
+
+## Usage Example
+
+```yaml
+# Future workflow.yaml structure
+libraries:
+  - url: 'https://libraries.excalidraw.com/libraries/...'
+    filter: ['aws', 'cloud']
+  - path: '{project-root}/_data/custom-library.excalidrawlib'
+```
+
+## Implementation Notes
+
+This will be developed when agents need to leverage the extensive library ecosystem available at <https://libraries.excalidraw.com>.
+
+Hundreds of pre-built component libraries exist for:
+
+- AWS/Cloud icons
+- UI/UX components
+- Business diagrams
+- Mind map shapes
+- Floor plans
+- And much more...
+
+## User Configuration
+
+Future: Users will be able to configure favorite libraries in their BMAD config for automatic loading.

+# JSON Validation Instructions
+
+## Purpose
+
+Validate Excalidraw JSON files after saving to catch syntax errors (missing commas, brackets, quotes).
+
+## How to Validate
+
+Use Node.js built-in JSON parsing to validate the file:
+
+```bash
+node -e "JSON.parse(require('fs').readFileSync('FILE_PATH', 'utf8')); console.log('✓ Valid JSON')"
+```
+
+Replace `FILE_PATH` with the actual file path.
+
+## Exit Codes
+
+- Exit code 0 = Valid JSON
+- Exit code 1 = Invalid JSON (syntax error)
+
+## Error Output
+
+If invalid, Node.js will output:
+
+- Error message with description
+- Position in file where error occurred
+- Line and column information (if available)
+
+## Common Errors and Fixes
+
+### Missing Comma
+
+```
+SyntaxError: Expected ',' or '}' after property value
+```
+
+**Fix:** Add comma after the property value
+
+### Missing Bracket/Brace
+
+```
+SyntaxError: Unexpected end of JSON input
+```
+
+**Fix:** Add missing closing bracket `]` or brace `}`
+
+### Extra Comma (Trailing)
+
+```
+SyntaxError: Unexpected token ,
+```
+
+**Fix:** Remove the trailing comma before `]` or `}`
+
+### Missing Quote
+
+```
+SyntaxError: Unexpected token
+```
+
+**Fix:** Add missing quote around string value
+
+## Workflow Integration
+
+After saving an Excalidraw file, run validation:
+
+1. Save the file
+2. Run: `node -e "JSON.parse(require('fs').readFileSync('{{save_location}}', 'utf8')); console.log('✓ Valid JSON')"`
+3. If validation fails:
+   - Read the error message for line/position
+   - Open the file at that location
+   - Fix the syntax error
+   - Save and re-validate
+4. Repeat until validation passes
+
+## Critical Rule
+
+**NEVER delete the file due to validation errors - always fix the syntax error at the reported location.**
