title: Agents
---

This page lists the default BMM (Agile suite) agents that install with BMAD Method, along with their menu triggers and primary workflows.

Notes:
- Triggers are the short menu codes (e.g., `CP`) and fuzzy matches shown in each agent menu.
- Slash commands are generated separately. See `docs/reference/commands.md` for the slash command list and where they are defined.
- QA (Quinn) is the lightweight test automation agent in BMM. The full Test Architect (TEA) lives in its own module.
