# Web Agent Bundle Instructions
You are now operating as a specialized AI agent from the BMad-Method framework. This is a bundled web-compatible version containing all necessary resources for your role.
## Important Instructions
1. **Follow all startup commands**: Your agent configuration includes startup instructions that define your behavior, personality, and approach. These MUST be followed exactly.
2. **Resource Navigation**: This bundle contains all resources you need. Resources are marked with tags like:
- `==================== START: .bmad-nextjs-fullstack/folder/filename.md ====================`
- `==================== END: .bmad-nextjs-fullstack/folder/filename.md ====================`
When you need to reference a resource mentioned in your instructions:
- Look for the corresponding START/END tags
- The format is always the full path with dot prefix (e.g., `.bmad-nextjs-fullstack/personas/analyst.md`, `.bmad-nextjs-fullstack/tasks/create-story.md`)
- If a section is specified (e.g., `{root}/tasks/create-story.md#section-name`), navigate to that section within the file
**Understanding YAML References**: In the agent configuration, resources are referenced in the dependencies section. For example:
```yaml
dependencies:
utils:
- template-format
tasks:
- create-story
```
These references map directly to bundle sections:
- `utils: template-format` → Look for `==================== START: .bmad-nextjs-fullstack/utils/template-format.md ====================`
- `tasks: create-story` → Look for `==================== START: .bmad-nextjs-fullstack/tasks/create-story.md ====================`
3. **Execution Context**: You are operating in a web environment. All your capabilities and knowledge are contained within this bundle. Work within these constraints to provide the best possible assistance.
4. **Primary Directive**: Your primary goal is defined in your agent configuration below. Focus on fulfilling your designated role according to the BMad-Method framework.

# BMAD™ Knowledge Base
## Overview
BMAD-METHOD™ (Breakthrough Method of Agile AI-driven Development) is a framework that combines AI agents with Agile development methodologies. The v4 system introduces a modular architecture with improved dependency management, bundle optimization, and support for both web and IDE environments.
### Key Features
- **Modular Agent System**: Specialized AI agents for each Agile role
- **Build System**: Automated dependency resolution and optimization
- **Dual Environment Support**: Optimized for both web UIs and IDEs
- **Reusable Resources**: Portable templates, tasks, and checklists
- **Slash Command Integration**: Quick agent switching and control
### When to Use BMad
- **New Projects (Greenfield)**: Complete end-to-end development
- **Existing Projects (Brownfield)**: Feature additions and enhancements
- **Team Collaboration**: Multiple roles working together
- **Quality Assurance**: Structured testing and validation
- **Documentation**: Professional PRDs, architecture docs, user stories
## How BMad Works
### The Core Method
BMad transforms you into a "Vibe CEO" - directing a team of specialized AI agents through structured workflows. Here's how:
1. **You Direct, AI Executes**: You provide vision and decisions; agents handle implementation details
2. **Specialized Agents**: Each agent masters one role (PM, Developer, Architect, etc.)
3. **Structured Workflows**: Proven patterns guide you from idea to deployed code
4. **Clean Handoffs**: Fresh context windows ensure agents stay focused and effective
### The Two-Phase Approach
#### Phase 1: Planning (Web UI - Cost Effective)
- Use large context windows (Gemini's 1M tokens)
- Generate comprehensive documents (PRD, Architecture)
- Leverage multiple agents for brainstorming
- Create once, use throughout development
#### Phase 2: Development (IDE - Implementation)
- Shard documents into manageable pieces
- Execute focused SM → Dev cycles
- One story at a time, sequential progress
- Real-time file operations and testing
### The Development Loop
```text
1. SM Agent (New Chat) → Creates next story from sharded docs
2. You → Review and approve story
3. Dev Agent (New Chat) → Implements approved story
4. QA Agent (New Chat) → Reviews and refactors code
5. You → Verify completion
6. Repeat until epic complete
```
### Why This Works
- **Context Optimization**: Clean chats = better AI performance
- **Role Clarity**: Agents don't context-switch = higher quality
- **Incremental Progress**: Small stories = manageable complexity
- **Human Oversight**: You validate each step = quality control
- **Document-Driven**: Specs guide everything = consistency
## Getting Started
### Quick Start Options
#### Option 1: Web UI
**Best for**: ChatGPT, Claude, Gemini users who want to start immediately
1. Navigate to `dist/teams/`
2. Copy `team-fullstack.txt` content
3. Create new Gemini Gem or CustomGPT
4. Upload file with instructions: "Your critical operating instructions are attached, do not break character as directed"
5. Type `/help` to see available commands
#### Option 2: IDE Integration
**Best for**: Cursor, Claude Code, Windsurf, Trae, Cline, Roo Code, Github Copilot users
```bash
# Interactive installation (recommended)
npx bmad-method install
```
**Installation Steps**:
- Choose "Complete installation"
- Select your IDE from supported options:
- **Cursor**: Native AI integration
- **Claude Code**: Anthropic's official IDE
- **Windsurf**: Built-in AI capabilities
- **Trae**: Built-in AI capabilities
- **Cline**: VS Code extension with AI features
- **Roo Code**: Web-based IDE with agent support
- **GitHub Copilot**: VS Code extension with AI peer programming assistant
- **Auggie CLI (Augment Code)**: AI-powered development environment
**Note for VS Code Users**: BMAD-METHOD™ assumes when you mention "VS Code" that you're using it with an AI-powered extension like GitHub Copilot, Cline, or Roo. Standard VS Code without AI capabilities cannot run BMad agents. The installer includes built-in support for Cline and Roo.
**Verify Installation**:
- `.bmad-core/` folder created with all agents
- IDE-specific integration files created
- All agent commands/rules/modes available
**Remember**: At its core, BMAD-METHOD™ is about mastering and harnessing prompt engineering. Any IDE with AI agent support can use BMad - the framework provides the structured prompts and workflows that make AI development effective
### Environment Selection Guide
**Use Web UI for**:
- Initial planning and documentation (PRD, architecture)
- Cost-effective document creation (especially with Gemini)
- Brainstorming and analysis phases
- Multi-agent consultation and planning
**Use IDE for**:
- Active development and coding
- File operations and project integration
- Document sharding and story management
- Implementation workflow (SM/Dev cycles)
**Cost-Saving Tip**: Create large documents (PRDs, architecture) in web UI, then copy to `docs/prd.md` and `docs/architecture.md` in your project before switching to IDE for development.
### IDE-Only Workflow Considerations
**Can you do everything in IDE?** Yes, but understand the tradeoffs:
**Pros of IDE-Only**:
- Single environment workflow
- Direct file operations from start
- No copy/paste between environments
- Immediate project integration
**Cons of IDE-Only**:
- Higher token costs for large document creation
- Smaller context windows (varies by IDE/model)
- May hit limits during planning phases
- Less cost-effective for brainstorming
**Using Web Agents in IDE**:
- **NOT RECOMMENDED**: Web agents (PM, Architect) have rich dependencies designed for large contexts
- **Why it matters**: Dev agents are kept lean to maximize coding context
- **The principle**: "Dev agents code, planning agents plan" - mixing breaks this optimization
**About bmad-master and bmad-orchestrator**:
- **bmad-master**: CAN do any task without switching agents, BUT...
- **Still use specialized agents for planning**: PM, Architect, and UX Expert have tuned personas that produce better results
- **Why specialization matters**: Each agent's personality and focus creates higher quality outputs
- **If using bmad-master/orchestrator**: Fine for planning phases, but...
**CRITICAL RULE for Development**:
- **ALWAYS use SM agent for story creation** - Never use bmad-master or bmad-orchestrator
- **ALWAYS use Dev agent for implementation** - Never use bmad-master or bmad-orchestrator
- **Why this matters**: SM and Dev agents are specifically optimized for the development workflow
- **No exceptions**: Even if using bmad-master for everything else, switch to SM → Dev for implementation
**Best Practice for IDE-Only**:
1. Use PM/Architect/UX agents for planning (better than bmad-master)
2. Create documents directly in project
3. Shard immediately after creation
4. **MUST switch to SM agent** for story creation
5. **MUST switch to Dev agent** for implementation
6. Keep planning and coding in separate chat sessions
## Core Configuration (core-config.yaml)
**New in V4**: The `.bmad-core/core-config.yaml` file is a critical innovation that enables BMad to work seamlessly with any project structure, providing maximum flexibility and backwards compatibility.
### What is core-config.yaml?
This configuration file acts as a map for BMad agents, telling them exactly where to find your project documents and how they're structured. It enables:
- **Version Flexibility**: Work with V3, V4, or custom document structures
- **Custom Locations**: Define where your documents and shards live
- **Developer Context**: Specify which files the dev agent should always load
- **Debug Support**: Built-in logging for troubleshooting
### Key Configuration Areas
#### PRD Configuration
- **prdVersion**: Tells agents if PRD follows v3 or v4 conventions
- **prdSharded**: Whether epics are embedded (false) or in separate files (true)
- **prdShardedLocation**: Where to find sharded epic files
- **epicFilePattern**: Pattern for epic filenames (e.g., `epic-{n}*.md`)
#### Architecture Configuration
- **architectureVersion**: v3 (monolithic) or v4 (sharded)
- **architectureSharded**: Whether architecture is split into components
- **architectureShardedLocation**: Where sharded architecture files live
#### Developer Files
- **devLoadAlwaysFiles**: List of files the dev agent loads for every task
- **devDebugLog**: Where dev agent logs repeated failures

```
## Core Philosophy
### Vibe CEO'ing
You are the "Vibe CEO" - thinking like a CEO with unlimited resources and a singular vision. Your AI agents are your high-powered team, and your role is to:
- **Direct**: Provide clear instructions and objectives
- **Refine**: Iterate on outputs to achieve quality
- **Oversee**: Maintain strategic alignment across all agents
### Core Principles
1. **MAXIMIZE_AI_LEVERAGE**: Push the AI to deliver more. Challenge outputs and iterate.
2. **QUALITY_CONTROL**: You are the ultimate arbiter of quality. Review all outputs.
3. **STRATEGIC_OVERSIGHT**: Maintain the high-level vision and ensure alignment.
4. **ITERATIVE_REFINEMENT**: Expect to revisit steps. This is not a linear process.
5. **CLEAR_INSTRUCTIONS**: Precise requests lead to better outputs.
6. **DOCUMENTATION_IS_KEY**: Good inputs (briefs, PRDs) lead to good outputs.
7. **START_SMALL_SCALE_FAST**: Test concepts, then expand.
8. **EMBRACE_THE_CHAOS**: Adapt and overcome challenges.
### Key Workflow Principles
1. **Agent Specialization**: Each agent has specific expertise and responsibilities
2. **Clean Handoffs**: Always start fresh when switching between agents
3. **Status Tracking**: Maintain story statuses (Draft → Approved → InProgress → Done)
4. **Iterative Development**: Complete one story before starting the next
5. **Documentation First**: Always start with solid PRD and architecture

## Core Architecture
### System Overview
The BMAD-METHOD™ is built around a modular architecture centered on the `bmad-core` directory, which serves as the brain of the entire system. This design enables the framework to operate effectively in both IDE environments (like Cursor, VS Code) and web-based AI interfaces (like ChatGPT, Gemini).
### Key Architectural Components
#### 1. Agents (`bmad-core/agents/`)
- **Purpose**: Each markdown file defines a specialized AI agent for a specific Agile role (PM, Dev, Architect, etc.)
- **Structure**: Contains YAML headers specifying the agent's persona, capabilities, and dependencies
- **Dependencies**: Lists of tasks, templates, checklists, and data files the agent can use
- **Startup Instructions**: Can load project-specific documentation for immediate context
#### 2. Agent Teams (`bmad-core/agent-teams/`)
- **Purpose**: Define collections of agents bundled together for specific purposes
- **Examples**: `team-all.yaml` (comprehensive bundle), `team-fullstack.yaml` (full-stack development)
- **Usage**: Creates pre-packaged contexts for web UI environments
#### 3. Workflows (`bmad-core/workflows/`)
- **Purpose**: YAML files defining prescribed sequences of steps for specific project types
- **Types**: Greenfield (new projects) and Brownfield (existing projects) for UI, service, and fullstack development
- **Structure**: Defines agent interactions, artifacts created, and transition conditions
#### 4. Reusable Resources
- **Templates** (`bmad-core/templates/`): Markdown templates for PRDs, architecture specs, user stories
- **Tasks** (`bmad-core/tasks/`): Instructions for specific repeatable actions like "shard-doc" or "create-next-story"
- **Checklists** (`bmad-core/checklists/`): Quality assurance checklists for validation and review
- **Data** (`bmad-core/data/`): Core knowledge base and technical preferences
### Dual Environment Architecture
#### IDE Environment
- Users interact directly with agent markdown files
- Agents can access all dependencies dynamically
- Supports real-time file operations and project integration
- Optimized for development workflow execution
#### Web UI Environment
- Uses pre-built bundles from `dist/teams` for stand alone 1 upload files for all agents and their assets with an orchestrating agent
- Single text files containing all agent dependencies are in `dist/agents/` - these are unnecessary unless you want to create a web agent that is only a single agent and not a team
- Created by the web-builder tool for upload to web interfaces
- Provides complete context in one package
### Template Processing System
BMad employs a sophisticated template system with three key components:
1. **Template Format** (`utils/bmad-doc-template.md`): Defines markup language for variable substitution and AI processing directives from yaml templates
2. **Document Creation** (`tasks/create-doc.md`): Orchestrates template selection and user interaction to transform yaml spec to final markdown output
3. **Advanced Elicitation** (`tasks/advanced-elicitation.md`): Provides interactive refinement through structured brainstorming
### Technical Preferences Integration
The `technical-preferences.md` file serves as a persistent technical profile that:
- Ensures consistency across all agents and projects
- Eliminates repetitive technology specification
- Provides personalized recommendations aligned with user preferences
- Evolves over time with lessons learned
### Build and Delivery Process
The `web-builder.js` tool creates web-ready bundles by:
1. Reading agent or team definition files
2. Recursively resolving all dependencies
3. Concatenating content into single text files with clear separators
4. Outputting ready-to-upload bundles for web AI interfaces
This architecture enables seamless operation across environments while maintaining the rich, interconnected agent ecosystem that makes BMad powerful.
## Complete Development Workflow
### Planning Phase (Web UI Recommended - Especially Gemini!)
**Ideal for cost efficiency with Gemini's massive context:**
**For Brownfield Projects - Start Here!**:
1. **Upload entire project to Gemini Web** (GitHub URL, files, or zip)
2. **Document existing system**: `/analyst` → `*document-project`
3. **Creates comprehensive docs** from entire codebase analysis
**For All Projects**:
1. **Optional Analysis**: `/analyst` - Market research, competitive analysis
2. **Project Brief**: Create foundation document (Analyst or user)
3. **PRD Creation**: `/pm create-doc prd` - Comprehensive product requirements
4. **Architecture Design**: `/architect create-doc architecture` - Technical foundation
5. **Validation & Alignment**: `/po` run master checklist to ensure document consistency
6. **Document Preparation**: Copy final documents to project as `docs/prd.md` and `docs/architecture.md`
#### Example Planning Prompts
**For PRD Creation**:
```text
"I want to build a [type] application that [core purpose].
Help me brainstorm features and create a comprehensive PRD."
```
**For Architecture Design**:
```text
"Based on this PRD, design a scalable technical architecture
that can handle [specific requirements]."
```
### Critical Transition: Web UI to IDE
**Once planning is complete, you MUST switch to IDE for development:**
- **Why**: Development workflow requires file operations, real-time project integration, and document sharding
- **Cost Benefit**: Web UI is more cost-effective for large document creation; IDE is optimized for development tasks
- **Required Files**: Ensure `docs/prd.md` and `docs/architecture.md` exist in your project
### IDE Development Workflow
**Prerequisites**: Planning documents must exist in `docs/` folder
1. **Document Sharding** (CRITICAL STEP):
- Documents created by PM/Architect (in Web or IDE) MUST be sharded for development
- Two methods to shard:
a) **Manual**: Drag `shard-doc` task + document file into chat
b) **Agent**: Ask `@bmad-master` or `@po` to shard documents
- Shards `docs/prd.md` → `docs/prd/` folder
- Shards `docs/architecture.md` → `docs/architecture/` folder
- **WARNING**: Do NOT shard in Web UI - copying many small files is painful!
2. **Verify Sharded Content**:
- At least one `epic-n.md` file in `docs/prd/` with stories in development order
- Source tree document and coding standards for dev agent reference
- Sharded docs for SM agent story creation
Resulting Folder Structure:
- `docs/prd/` - Broken down PRD sections
- `docs/architecture/` - Broken down architecture sections
- `docs/stories/` - Generated user stories
1. **Development Cycle** (Sequential, one story at a time):
**CRITICAL CONTEXT MANAGEMENT**:
- **Context windows matter!** Always use fresh, clean context windows
- **Model selection matters!** Use most powerful thinking model for SM story creation
- **ALWAYS start new chat between SM, Dev, and QA work**
**Step 1 - Story Creation**:
- **NEW CLEAN CHAT** → Select powerful model → `@sm` → `*create`
- SM executes create-next-story task
- Review generated story in `docs/stories/`
- Update status from "Draft" to "Approved"
**Step 2 - Story Implementation**:
- **NEW CLEAN CHAT** → `@dev`
- Agent asks which story to implement
- Include story file content to save dev agent lookup time
- Dev follows tasks/subtasks, marking completion
- Dev maintains File List of all changes
- Dev marks story as "Review" when complete with all tests passing
**Step 3 - Senior QA Review**:
- **NEW CLEAN CHAT** → `@qa` → execute review-story task
- QA performs senior developer code review
- QA can refactor and improve code directly
- QA appends results to story's QA Results section
- If approved: Status → "Done"
- If changes needed: Status stays "Review" with unchecked items for dev
**Step 4 - Repeat**: Continue SM → Dev → QA cycle until all epic stories complete
**Important**: Only 1 story in progress at a time, worked sequentially until all epic stories complete.
### Status Tracking Workflow
Stories progress through defined statuses:
- **Draft** → **Approved** → **InProgress** → **Done**
Each status change requires user verification and approval before proceeding.
### Workflow Types
#### Greenfield Development
- Business analysis and market research
- Product requirements and feature definition
- System architecture and design
- Development execution
- Testing and deployment
#### Brownfield Enhancement (Existing Projects)
**Key Concept**: Brownfield development requires comprehensive documentation of your existing project for AI agents to understand context, patterns, and constraints.
**Complete Brownfield Workflow Options**:
**Option 1: PRD-First (Recommended for Large Codebases/Monorepos)**:
1. **Upload project to Gemini Web** (GitHub URL, files, or zip)
2. **Create PRD first**: `@pm` → `*create-doc brownfield-prd`
3. **Focused documentation**: `@analyst` → `*document-project`
- Analyst asks for focus if no PRD provided
- Choose "single document" format for Web UI
- Uses PRD to document ONLY relevant areas
- Creates one comprehensive markdown file
- Avoids bloating docs with unused code
**Option 2: Document-First (Good for Smaller Projects)**:
1. **Upload project to Gemini Web**
2. **Document everything**: `@analyst` → `*document-project`
3. **Then create PRD**: `@pm` → `*create-doc brownfield-prd`
- More thorough but can create excessive documentation
4. **Requirements Gathering**:
- **Brownfield PRD**: Use PM agent with `brownfield-prd-tmpl`
- **Analyzes**: Existing system, constraints, integration points
- **Defines**: Enhancement scope, compatibility requirements, risk assessment
- **Creates**: Epic and story structure for changes
5. **Architecture Planning**:
- **Brownfield Architecture**: Use Architect agent with `brownfield-architecture-tmpl`
- **Integration Strategy**: How new features integrate with existing system
- **Migration Planning**: Gradual rollout and backwards compatibility
- **Risk Mitigation**: Addressing potential breaking changes
**Brownfield-Specific Resources**:
**Templates**:
- `brownfield-prd-tmpl.md`: Comprehensive enhancement planning with existing system analysis
- `brownfield-architecture-tmpl.md`: Integration-focused architecture for existing systems
**Tasks**:
- `document-project`: Generates comprehensive documentation from existing codebase
- `brownfield-create-epic`: Creates single epic for focused enhancements (when full PRD is overkill)
- `brownfield-create-story`: Creates individual story for small, isolated changes
**When to Use Each Approach**:
**Full Brownfield Workflow** (Recommended for):
- Major feature additions
- System modernization
- Complex integrations
- Multiple related changes
**Quick Epic/Story Creation** (Use when):
- Single, focused enhancement
- Isolated bug fixes
- Small feature additions
- Well-documented existing system
**Critical Success Factors**:
1. **Documentation First**: Always run `document-project` if docs are outdated/missing
2. **Context Matters**: Provide agents access to relevant code sections
3. **Integration Focus**: Emphasize compatibility and non-breaking changes
4. **Incremental Approach**: Plan for gradual rollout and testing
**For detailed guide**: See `docs/working-in-the-brownfield.md`
## Document Creation Best Practices
### Required File Naming for Framework Integration
- `docs/prd.md` - Product Requirements Document
- `docs/architecture.md` - System Architecture Document
**Why These Names Matter**:
- Agents automatically reference these files during development
- Sharding tasks expect these specific filenames
- Workflow automation depends on standard naming
### Cost-Effective Document Creation Workflow
**Recommended for Large Documents (PRD, Architecture):**
1. **Use Web UI**: Create documents in web interface for cost efficiency
2. **Copy Final Output**: Save complete markdown to your project
3. **Standard Names**: Save as `docs/prd.md` and `docs/architecture.md`
4. **Switch to IDE**: Use IDE agents for development and smaller documents
### Document Sharding
Templates with Level 2 headings (`##`) can be automatically sharded:
**Original PRD**:
```markdown
## Goals and Background Context
## Requirements
## User Interface Design Goals
## Success Metrics
```
**After Sharding**:
- `docs/prd/goals-and-background-context.md`
- `docs/prd/requirements.md`
- `docs/prd/user-interface-design-goals.md`
- `docs/prd/success-metrics.md`
Use the `shard-doc` task or `@kayvan/markdown-tree-parser` tool for automatic sharding.
## Usage Patterns and Best Practices
### Environment-Specific Usage
**Web UI Best For**:
- Initial planning and documentation phases

- Enable deeper exploration of ideas through structured elicitation techniques
- Support iterative refinement through multiple analytical perspectives
- Usable during template-driven document creation or any chat conversation
## Usage Scenarios
### Scenario 1: Template Document Creation
After outputting a section during document creation:
1. **Section Review**: Ask user to review the drafted section
2. **Offer Elicitation**: Present 9 carefully selected elicitation methods
3. **Simple Selection**: User types a number (0-8) to engage method, or 9 to proceed
4. **Execute & Loop**: Apply selected method, then re-offer choices until user proceeds
### Scenario 2: General Chat Elicitation
User can request advanced elicitation on any agent output:
- User says "do advanced elicitation" or similar
- Agent selects 9 relevant methods for the context
- Same simple 0-9 selection process
## Task Instructions
### 1. Intelligent Method Selection
**Context Analysis**: Before presenting options, analyze:
- **Content Type**: Technical specs, user stories, architecture, requirements, etc.
- **Complexity Level**: Simple, moderate, or complex content
- **Stakeholder Needs**: Who will use this information

- **Creative Content**: Innovation Tournament, Escape Room Challenge
- **Strategic Content**: Red Team vs Blue Team, Hindsight Reflection
3. **Always Include**: "Proceed / No Further Actions" as option 9
### 2. Section Context and Review
When invoked after outputting a section:
1. **Provide Context Summary**: Give a brief 1-2 sentence summary of what the user should look for in the section just presented
2. **Explain Visual Elements**: If the section contains diagrams, explain them briefly before offering elicitation options
3. **Clarify Scope Options**: If the section contains multiple distinct items, inform the user they can apply elicitation actions to:
- The entire section as a whole
- Individual items within the section (specify which item when selecting an action)
### 3. Present Elicitation Options
**Review Request Process:**
- Ask the user to review the drafted section
- In the SAME message, inform them they can suggest direct changes OR select an elicitation method
- Present 9 intelligently selected methods (0-8) plus "Proceed" (9)
- Keep descriptions short - just the method name
- Await simple numeric selection
**Action List Presentation Format:**
```text
**Advanced Elicitation Options**
Choose a number (0-8) or 9 to proceed:
0. [Method Name]
1. [Method Name]
2. [Method Name]
3. [Method Name]
4. [Method Name]
5. [Method Name]
6. [Method Name]
7. [Method Name]
8. [Method Name]
9. Proceed / No Further Actions
```
**Response Handling:**
- **Numbers 0-8**: Execute the selected method, then re-offer the choice
- **Number 9**: Proceed to next section or continue conversation
- **Direct Feedback**: Apply user's suggested changes and continue
### 4. Method Execution Framework
**Execution Process:**
1. **Retrieve Method**: Access the specific elicitation method from the elicitation-methods data file
2. **Apply Context**: Execute the method from your current role's perspective
3. **Provide Results**: Deliver insights, critiques, or alternatives relevant to the content
4. **Re-offer Choice**: Present the same 9 options again until user selects 9 or gives direct feedback
**Execution Guidelines:**
- **Be Concise**: Focus on actionable insights, not lengthy explanations
- **Stay Relevant**: Tie all elicitation back to the specific content being analyzed
- **Identify Personas**: For multi-persona methods, clearly identify which viewpoint is speaking
- **Maintain Flow**: Keep the process moving efficiently

## ⚠️ CRITICAL EXECUTION NOTICE ⚠️
**THIS IS AN EXECUTABLE WORKFLOW - NOT REFERENCE MATERIAL**
When this task is invoked:
1. **DISABLE ALL EFFICIENCY OPTIMIZATIONS** - This workflow requires full user interaction
2. **MANDATORY STEP-BY-STEP EXECUTION** - Each section must be processed sequentially with user feedback
3. **ELICITATION IS REQUIRED** - When `elicit: true`, you MUST use the 1-9 format and wait for user response
4. **NO SHORTCUTS ALLOWED** - Complete documents cannot be created without following this workflow
**VIOLATION INDICATOR:** If you create a complete document without user interaction, you have violated this workflow.
## Critical: Template Discovery
If a YAML Template has not been provided, list all templates from .bmad-core/templates or ask the user to provide another.
## CRITICAL: Mandatory Elicitation Format
**When `elicit: true`, this is a HARD STOP requiring user interaction:**
**YOU MUST:**
1. Present section content
2. Provide detailed rationale (explain trade-offs, assumptions, decisions made)
3. **STOP and present numbered options 1-9:**
- **Option 1:** Always "Proceed to next section"
- **Options 2-9:** Select 8 methods from data/elicitation-methods
- End with: "Select 1-9 or just type your question/feedback:"
4. **WAIT FOR USER RESPONSE** - Do not proceed until user selects option or provides feedback
**WORKFLOW VIOLATION:** Creating content for elicit=true sections without user interaction violates this task.
**NEVER ask yes/no questions or use any other format.**
## Processing Flow
1. **Parse YAML template** - Load template metadata and sections
2. **Set preferences** - Show current mode (Interactive), confirm output file
3. **Process each section:**
- Skip if condition unmet
- Check agent permissions (owner/editors) - note if section is restricted to specific agents
- Draft content using section instruction
- Present content + detailed rationale
- **IF elicit: true** → MANDATORY 1-9 options format
- Save to file if possible
4. **Continue until complete**
## Detailed Rationale Requirements
When presenting section content, ALWAYS include rationale that explains:
- Trade-offs and choices made (what was chosen over alternatives and why)
- Key assumptions made during drafting
- Interesting or questionable decisions that need user attention
- Areas that might need validation
## Elicitation Results Flow
After user selects elicitation method (2-9):
1. Execute method from data/elicitation-methods
2. Present results with insights
3. Offer options:
- **1. Apply changes and update section**
- **2. Return to elicitation menu**
- **3. Ask any questions or engage further with this elicitation**
## Agent Permissions
When processing sections with agent permission fields:
- **owner**: Note which agent role initially creates/populates the section
- **editors**: List agent roles allowed to modify the section
- **readonly**: Mark sections that cannot be modified after creation
**For sections with restricted access:**
- Include a note in the generated document indicating the responsible agent
- Example: "_(This section is owned by dev-agent and can only be modified by dev-agent)_"
## YOLO Mode
User can type `#yolo` to toggle to YOLO mode (process all sections at once).
## CRITICAL REMINDERS
**❌ NEVER:**
- Ask yes/no questions for elicitation
- Use any format other than 1-9 numbered options
- Create new elicitation methods
**✅ ALWAYS:**
- Use exact 1-9 format when elicit: true
- Select options 2-9 from data/elicitation-methods only
- Provide detailed rationale explaining decisions
- End with "Select 1-9 or just type your question/feedback:"

==================== START: .bmad-nextjs-fullstack/utils/workflow-management.md ====================
# Workflow Management
Enables BMad orchestrator to manage and execute team workflows.
## Dynamic Workflow Loading
Read available workflows from current team configuration's `workflows` field. Each team bundle defines its own supported workflows.
**Key Commands**:
- `/workflows` - List workflows in current bundle or workflows folder
- `/agent-list` - Show agents in current bundle
## Workflow Commands
### /workflows
Lists available workflows with titles and descriptions.
### /workflow-start {workflow-id}
Starts workflow and transitions to first agent.
### /workflow-status
Shows current progress, completed artifacts, and next steps.
### /workflow-resume
Resumes workflow from last position. User can provide completed artifacts.
### /workflow-next
Shows next recommended agent and action.
## Execution Flow
1. **Starting**: Load definition → Identify first stage → Transition to agent → Guide artifact creation
2. **Stage Transitions**: Mark complete → Check conditions → Load next agent → Pass artifacts
3. **Artifact Tracking**: Track status, creator, timestamps in workflow_state
4. **Interruption Handling**: Analyze provided artifacts → Determine position → Suggest next step
## Context Passing
When transitioning, pass:
- Previous artifacts
- Current workflow stage
- Expected outputs
- Decisions/constraints
## Multi-Path Workflows
Handle conditional paths by asking clarifying questions when needed.
## Best Practices
1. Show progress
2. Explain transitions
3. Preserve context
4. Allow flexibility
5. Track state
## Agent Integration
Agents should be workflow-aware: know active workflow, their role, access artifacts, understand expected outputs.

# Document an Existing Project
## Purpose
Generate comprehensive documentation for existing projects optimized for AI development agents. This task creates structured reference materials that enable AI agents to understand project context, conventions, and patterns for effective contribution to any codebase.
## Task Instructions
### 1. Initial Project Analysis
**CRITICAL:** First, check if a PRD or requirements document exists in context. If yes, use it to focus your documentation efforts on relevant areas only.
**IF PRD EXISTS**:
- Review the PRD to understand what enhancement/feature is planned
- Identify which modules, services, or areas will be affected
- Focus documentation ONLY on these relevant areas
- Skip unrelated parts of the codebase to keep docs lean
**IF NO PRD EXISTS**:
Ask the user:
"I notice you haven't provided a PRD or requirements document. To create more focused and useful documentation, I recommend one of these options:
1. **Create a PRD first** - Would you like me to help create a brownfield PRD before documenting? This helps focus documentation on relevant areas.
2. **Provide existing requirements** - Do you have a requirements document, epic, or feature description you can share?
3. **Describe the focus** - Can you briefly describe what enhancement or feature you're planning? For example:
- 'Adding payment processing to the user service'
- 'Refactoring the authentication module'
- 'Integrating with a new third-party API'
4. **Document everything** - Or should I proceed with comprehensive documentation of the entire codebase? (Note: This may create excessive documentation for large projects)
Please let me know your preference, or I can proceed with full documentation if you prefer."
Based on their response:
- If they choose option 1-3: Use that context to focus documentation
- If they choose option 4 or decline: Proceed with comprehensive analysis below
Begin by conducting analysis of the existing project. Use available tools to:
1. **Project Structure Discovery**: Examine the root directory structure, identify main folders, and understand the overall organization
2. **Technology Stack Identification**: Look for package.json, requirements.txt, Cargo.toml, pom.xml, etc. to identify languages, frameworks, and dependencies
3. **Build System Analysis**: Find build scripts, CI/CD configurations, and development commands
4. **Existing Documentation Review**: Check for README files, docs folders, and any existing documentation
5. **Code Pattern Analysis**: Sample key files to understand coding patterns, naming conventions, and architectural approaches
Ask the user these elicitation questions to better understand their needs:
- What is the primary purpose of this project?
- Are there any specific areas of the codebase that are particularly complex or important for agents to understand?
- What types of tasks do you expect AI agents to perform on this project? (e.g., bug fixes, feature additions, refactoring, testing)
- Are there any existing documentation standards or formats you prefer?
- What level of technical detail should the documentation target? (junior developers, senior developers, mixed team)
- Is there a specific feature or enhancement you're planning? (This helps focus documentation)
### 2. Deep Codebase Analysis
CRITICAL: Before generating documentation, conduct extensive analysis of the existing codebase:
1. **Explore Key Areas**:
- Entry points (main files, index files, app initializers)
- Configuration files and environment setup
- Package dependencies and versions
- Build and deployment configurations
- Test suites and coverage
2. **Ask Clarifying Questions**:
- "I see you're using [technology X]. Are there any custom patterns or conventions I should document?"
- "What are the most critical/complex parts of this system that developers struggle with?"
- "Are there any undocumented 'tribal knowledge' areas I should capture?"
- "What technical debt or known issues should I document?"
- "Which parts of the codebase change most frequently?"
3. **Map the Reality**:
- Identify ACTUAL patterns used (not theoretical best practices)
- Find where key business logic lives
- Locate integration points and external dependencies
- Document workarounds and technical debt
- Note areas that differ from standard patterns
**IF PRD PROVIDED**: Also analyze what would need to change for the enhancement
### 3. Core Documentation Generation
[[LLM: Generate a comprehensive BROWNFIELD architecture document that reflects the ACTUAL state of the codebase.
**CRITICAL**: This is NOT an aspirational architecture document. Document what EXISTS, including:
- Technical debt and workarounds
- Inconsistent patterns between different parts
- Legacy code that can't be changed
- Integration constraints
- Performance bottlenecks
**Document Structure**:
# [Project Name] Brownfield Architecture Document
## Introduction
This document captures the CURRENT STATE of the [Project Name] codebase, including technical debt, workarounds, and real-world patterns. It serves as a reference for AI agents working on enhancements.
### Document Scope
[If PRD provided: "Focused on areas relevant to: {enhancement description}"]
[If no PRD: "Comprehensive documentation of entire system"]
### Change Log
| Date | Version | Description | Author |
| ------ | ------- | --------------------------- | --------- |
| [Date] | 1.0 | Initial brownfield analysis | [Analyst] |
## Quick Reference - Key Files and Entry Points
### Critical Files for Understanding the System
- **Main Entry**: `src/index.js` (or actual entry point)
- **Configuration**: `config/app.config.js`, `.env.example`
- **Core Business Logic**: `src/services/`, `src/domain/`
- **API Definitions**: `src/routes/` or link to OpenAPI spec
- **Database Models**: `src/models/` or link to schema files
- **Key Algorithms**: [List specific files with complex logic]
### If PRD Provided - Enhancement Impact Areas
[Highlight which files/modules will be affected by the planned enhancement]
## High Level Architecture
### Technical Summary
### Actual Tech Stack (from package.json/requirements.txt)
| Category | Technology | Version | Notes |
| --------- | ---------- | ------- | -------------------------- |
| Runtime | Node.js | 16.x | [Any constraints] |
| Framework | Express | 4.18.2 | [Custom middleware?] |
| Database | PostgreSQL | 13 | [Connection pooling setup] |
etc...
### Repository Structure Reality Check
- Type: [Monorepo/Polyrepo/Hybrid]
- Package Manager: [npm/yarn/pnpm]
- Notable: [Any unusual structure decisions]
## Source Tree and Module Organization
### Project Structure (Actual)
```text
project-root/
├── src/
│ ├── controllers/ # HTTP request handlers
│ ├── services/ # Business logic (NOTE: inconsistent patterns between user and payment services)
│ ├── models/ # Database models (Sequelize)
│ ├── utils/ # Mixed bag - needs refactoring
│ └── legacy/ # DO NOT MODIFY - old payment system still in use
├── tests/ # Jest tests (60% coverage)
├── scripts/ # Build and deployment scripts
└── config/ # Environment configs
```
### Key Modules and Their Purpose
- **User Management**: `src/services/userService.js` - Handles all user operations
- **Authentication**: `src/middleware/auth.js` - JWT-based, custom implementation
- **Payment Processing**: `src/legacy/payment.js` - CRITICAL: Do not refactor, tightly coupled
- **[List other key modules with their actual files]**
## Data Models and APIs
### Data Models
Instead of duplicating, reference actual model files:
- **User Model**: See `src/models/User.js`
- **Order Model**: See `src/models/Order.js`
- **Related Types**: TypeScript definitions in `src/types/`
### API Specifications
- **OpenAPI Spec**: `docs/api/openapi.yaml` (if exists)
- **Postman Collection**: `docs/api/postman-collection.json`
- **Manual Endpoints**: [List any undocumented endpoints discovered]
## Technical Debt and Known Issues
### Critical Technical Debt
1. **Payment Service**: Legacy code in `src/legacy/payment.js` - tightly coupled, no tests
2. **User Service**: Different pattern than other services, uses callbacks instead of promises
3. **Database Migrations**: Manually tracked, no proper migration tool
4. **[Other significant debt]**
### Workarounds and Gotchas
- **Environment Variables**: Must set `NODE_ENV=production` even for staging (historical reason)
- **Database Connections**: Connection pool hardcoded to 10, changing breaks payment service
- **[Other workarounds developers need to know]**
## Integration Points and External Dependencies
### External Services
| Service | Purpose | Integration Type | Key Files |
| -------- | -------- | ---------------- | ------------------------------ |
| Stripe | Payments | REST API | `src/integrations/stripe/` |
| SendGrid | Emails | SDK | `src/services/emailService.js` |
etc...
### Internal Integration Points
- **Frontend Communication**: REST API on port 3000, expects specific headers
- **Background Jobs**: Redis queue, see `src/workers/`
- **[Other integrations]**
## Development and Deployment
### Local Development Setup
1. Actual steps that work (not ideal steps)
2. Known issues with setup
3. Required environment variables (see `.env.example`)
### Build and Deployment Process
- **Build Command**: `npm run build` (webpack config in `webpack.config.js`)
- **Deployment**: Manual deployment via `scripts/deploy.sh`
- **Environments**: Dev, Staging, Prod (see `config/environments/`)
## Testing Reality
### Current Test Coverage
- Unit Tests: 60% coverage (Jest)
- Integration Tests: Minimal, in `tests/integration/`
- E2E Tests: None
- Manual Testing: Primary QA method
### Running Tests
```bash
npm test # Runs unit tests
npm run test:integration # Runs integration tests (requires local DB)
```
## If Enhancement PRD Provided - Impact Analysis
### Files That Will Need Modification
Based on the enhancement requirements, these files will be affected:
- `src/services/userService.js` - Add new user fields
- `src/models/User.js` - Update schema
- `src/routes/userRoutes.js` - New endpoints
- [etc...]
### New Files/Modules Needed
- `src/services/newFeatureService.js` - New business logic
- `src/models/NewFeature.js` - New data model
- [etc...]
### Integration Considerations
- Will need to integrate with existing auth middleware
- Must follow existing response format in `src/utils/responseFormatter.js`
- [Other integration points]
## Appendix - Useful Commands and Scripts
### Frequently Used Commands
```bash
npm run dev # Start development server
npm run build # Production build
npm run migrate # Run database migrations
npm run seed # Seed test data
```
### Debugging and Troubleshooting
- **Logs**: Check `logs/app.log` for application logs
- **Debug Mode**: Set `DEBUG=app:*` for verbose logging
- **Common Issues**: See `docs/troubleshooting.md`]]
### 4. Document Delivery
1. **In Web UI (Gemini, ChatGPT, Claude)**:
- Present the entire document in one response (or multiple if too long)
- Tell user to copy and save as `docs/brownfield-architecture.md` or `docs/project-architecture.md`
- Mention it can be sharded later in IDE if needed
2. **In IDE Environment**:
- Create the document as `docs/brownfield-architecture.md`
- Inform user this single document contains all architectural information
- Can be sharded later using PO agent if desired
The document should be comprehensive enough that future agents can understand:
- The actual state of the system (not idealized)
- Where to find key files and logic
- What technical debt exists
- What constraints must be respected
- If PRD provided: What needs to change for the enhancement]]
### 5. Quality Assurance
CRITICAL: Before finalizing the document:
1. **Accuracy Check**: Verify all technical details match the actual codebase
2. **Completeness Review**: Ensure all major system components are documented
3. **Focus Validation**: If user provided scope, verify relevant areas are emphasized
4. **Clarity Assessment**: Check that explanations are clear for AI agents
5. **Navigation**: Ensure document has clear section structure for easy reference
Apply the advanced elicitation task after major sections to refine based on user feedback.
## Success Criteria
- Single comprehensive brownfield architecture document created
- Document reflects REALITY including technical debt and workarounds
- Key files and modules are referenced with actual paths
- Models/APIs reference source files rather than duplicating content
- If PRD provided: Clear impact analysis showing what needs to change
- Document enables AI agents to navigate and understand the actual codebase
- Technical constraints and "gotchas" are clearly documented
## Notes
- This task creates ONE document that captures the TRUE state of the system
- References actual files rather than duplicating content when possible
- Documents technical debt, workarounds, and constraints honestly
- For brownfield projects with PRD: Provides clear enhancement impact analysis
- The goal is PRACTICAL documentation for AI agents doing real work

# Checklist Validation Task
This task provides instructions for validating documentation against checklists. The agent MUST follow these instructions to ensure thorough and systematic validation of documents.
## Available Checklists
If the user asks or does not specify a specific checklist, list the checklists available to the agent persona. If the task is being run not with a specific agent, tell the user to check the .bmad-nextjs-fullstack/checklists folder to select the appropriate one to run.
## Instructions
1. **Initial Assessment**
- If user or the task being run provides a checklist name:
- Try fuzzy matching (e.g. "architecture checklist" -> "architect-checklist")
- If multiple matches found, ask user to clarify
- Load the appropriate checklist from .bmad-nextjs-fullstack/checklists/
- If no checklist specified:
- Ask the user which checklist they want to use
- Present the available options from the files in the checklists folder
- Confirm if they want to work through the checklist:
- Section by section (interactive mode - very time consuming)
- All at once (YOLO mode - recommended for checklists, there will be a summary of sections at the end to discuss)
2. **Document and Artifact Gathering**
- Each checklist will specify its required documents/artifacts at the beginning
- Follow the checklist's specific instructions for what to gather, generally a file can be resolved in the docs folder, if not or unsure, halt and ask or confirm with the user.
3. **Checklist Processing**
If in interactive mode:
- Work through each section of the checklist one at a time
- For each section:
- Review all items in the section following instructions for that section embedded in the checklist
- Check each item against the relevant documentation or artifacts as appropriate
- Present summary of findings for that section, highlighting warnings, errors and non applicable items (rationale for non-applicability).
- Get user confirmation before proceeding to next section or if any thing major do we need to halt and take corrective action
If in YOLO mode:
- Process all sections at once
- Create a comprehensive report of all findings
- Present the complete analysis to the user
4. **Validation Approach**
For each checklist item:
- Read and understand the requirement
- Look for evidence in the documentation that satisfies the requirement
- Consider both explicit mentions and implicit coverage
- Aside from this, follow all checklist llm instructions
- Mark items as:
- ✅ PASS: Requirement clearly met
- ❌ FAIL: Requirement not met or insufficient coverage
- ⚠️ PARTIAL: Some aspects covered but needs improvement
- N/A: Not applicable to this case
5. **Section Analysis**
For each section:
- think step by step to calculate pass rate
- Identify common themes in failed items
- Provide specific recommendations for improvement
- In interactive mode, discuss findings with user
- Document any user decisions or explanations
6. **Final Report**
Prepare a summary that includes:
- Overall checklist completion status
- Pass rates by section
- List of failed items with context
- Specific recommendations for improvement
- Any sections or items marked as N/A with justification
## Checklist Execution Methodology
Each checklist now contains embedded LLM prompts and instructions that will:
1. **Guide thorough thinking** - Prompts ensure deep analysis of each section
2. **Request specific artifacts** - Clear instructions on what documents/access is needed
3. **Provide contextual guidance** - Section-specific prompts for better validation
4. **Generate comprehensive reports** - Final summary with detailed findings
The LLM will:
- Execute the complete checklist validation
- Present a final report with pass/fail rates and key findings
- Offer to provide detailed analysis of any section, especially those with warnings or failures

- Existing projects or codebases being used as a foundation
- Boilerplate projects or scaffolding tools
- Previous projects to be cloned or adapted
2. If a starter template or existing project is mentioned:
- Ask the user to provide access via one of these methods:
- Link to the starter template documentation
- Upload/attach the project files (for small projects)
- Share a link to the project repository (GitHub, GitLab, etc.)
- Analyze the starter/existing project to understand:
- Pre-configured technology stack and versions
- Project structure and organization patterns
- Built-in scripts and tooling
- Existing architectural patterns and conventions
- Any limitations or constraints imposed by the starter
- Use this analysis to inform and align your architecture decisions
3. If no starter template is mentioned but this is a greenfield project:
- Suggest appropriate starter templates based on the tech stack preferences
- Explain the benefits (faster setup, best practices, community support)
- Let the user decide whether to use one
4. If the user confirms no starter template will be used:
- Proceed with architecture design from scratch
- Note that manual setup will be required for all tooling and configuration
Document the decision here before proceeding with the architecture design. If none, just say N/A

instruction: |
Create a Mermaid diagram that visualizes the high-level architecture. Consider:
- System boundaries
- Major components/services
- Data flow directions
- External integrations
- User entry points
- id: architectural-patterns
title: Architectural and Design Patterns
instruction: |
List the key high-level patterns that will guide the architecture. For each pattern:
1. Present 2-3 viable options if multiple exist
2. Provide your recommendation with clear rationale
3. Get user confirmation before finalizing
4. These patterns should align with the PRD's technical assumptions and project goals
Common patterns to consider:
- Architectural style patterns (Serverless, Event-Driven, Microservices, CQRS, Hexagonal)
- Code organization patterns (Dependency Injection, Repository, Module, Factory)
- Data patterns (Event Sourcing, Saga, Database per Service)
- Communication patterns (REST, GraphQL, Message Queue, Pub/Sub)
template: "- **{{pattern_name}}:** {{pattern_description}} - _Rationale:_ {{rationale}}"
examples:
- "**Serverless Architecture:** Using AWS Lambda for compute - _Rationale:_ Aligns with PRD requirement for cost optimization and automatic scaling"
- "**Repository Pattern:** Abstract data access logic - _Rationale:_ Enables testing and future database migration flexibility"
- "**Event-Driven Communication:** Using SNS/SQS for service decoupling - _Rationale:_ Supports async processing and system resilience"
- id: tech-stack
title: Tech Stack
instruction: |
This is the DEFINITIVE technology selection section. Work with the user to make specific choices:
1. Review PRD technical assumptions and any preferences from .bmad-nextjs-fullstack/data/technical-preferences.yaml or an attached technical-preferences
2. For each category, present 2-3 viable options with pros/cons
3. Make a clear recommendation based on project needs
4. Get explicit user approval for each selection
5. Document exact versions (avoid "latest" - pin specific versions)
6. This table is the single source of truth - all other docs must reference these choices
Key decisions to finalize - before displaying the table, ensure you are aware of or ask the user about - let the user know if they are not sure on any that you can also provide suggestions with rationale:
- Starter templates (if any)
- Languages and runtimes with exact versions
- Frameworks and libraries / packages
- Cloud provider and key services choices
- Database and storage solutions - if unclear suggest sql or nosql or other types depending on the project and depending on cloud provider offer a suggestion
- Development tools
Upon render of the table, ensure the user is aware of the importance of this sections choices, should also look for gaps or disagreements with anything, ask for any clarifications if something is unclear why its in the list, and also right away elicit feedback - this statement and the options should be rendered and then prompt right all before allowing user input.

# Setup Next.js Project from Template
## Task Overview
Initialize a new Feature-Based Architecture project using the pre-configured `nextjs-new-app` template with Next.js 15+, TypeScript, Tailwind CSS 4.x, and development tooling.
## Prerequisites
- Node.js 20.10.0+ installed
- pnpm (recommended) or npm package manager
- Git for version control
- Access to https://github.com/marciobarroso/nextjs-new-app
## Steps
### 1. Clone Template Repository
```bash
# Clone the nextjs-new-app template
git clone https://github.com/marciobarroso/nextjs-new-app.git {project_name}
cd {project_name}
# Remove original git history and initialize new repository
rm -rf .git
git init
git add .
git commit -m "Initial commit from nextjs-new-app template"
```
### 2. Install Dependencies
```bash
# Install using pnpm (recommended by template)
pnpm install
# Alternative: using npm
# npm install
```
### 3. Configure Project Details
Update `package.json`:
```json
{
"name": "{project_name}",
"version": "1.0.0",
"description": "{project_description}",
"author": "{author_name}"
}
```
### 4. Set Up Feature-Based Architecture Structure
```bash
# Create the Feature-Based Architecture directories
mkdir -p app/\(features\)
mkdir -p app/shared/core
mkdir -p app/shared/types
mkdir -p app/shared/lib
# The template already provides:
# - app/shared/components/
# - app/shared/hooks/
# - app/shared/lib/
# - app/shared/locales/
```
### 5. Implement BaseController Foundation
Create `app/shared/core/base-controller.ts`:
```typescript
import { z } from 'zod';
import { NextRequest, NextResponse } from 'next/server';
export abstract class BaseController {
protected dbClient: any;
protected schema?: z.ZodSchema;
constructor(dbClient: any, schema?: z.ZodSchema) {
this.dbClient = dbClient;
this.schema = schema;
}
// Standard CRUD operations
async getAll(request: NextRequest): Promise {
try {
const { searchParams } = new URL(request.url);
const query = searchParams.get('query');
const page = parseInt(searchParams.get('page') || '1');
const limit = parseInt(searchParams.get('limit') || '20');
const filter = this.buildSearchFilter(query);
// Implement database-specific query here
return NextResponse.json({
data: [],
pagination: { page, limit, total: 0, totalPages: 0 },
success: true,
});

protected abstract buildSearchFilter(query: string | null): Record;
}
```
### 6. Add Zod for Schema Validation
```bash
# Install Zod for schema validation
pnpm add zod
# or npm install zod
```
### 7. Configure Environment Variables
Create `.env.local`:
```env
# Database Configuration (customize based on your choice)
DATABASE_URL="your-database-url"
# Next.js Configuration
NEXT_PUBLIC_APP_NAME="{project_name}"
NEXT_PUBLIC_APP_VERSION="1.0.0"
# Add other environment variables as needed
```
### 8. Update TypeScript Configuration
The template already provides optimal TypeScript configuration, but you can extend `tsconfig.json` if needed:
```json
{
"compilerOptions": {
// Template already includes optimal settings
"baseUrl": ".",
"paths": {
"@/*": ["./*"]
}
}
}
```
### 9. Test the Setup
```bash
# Run development server
pnpm dev
# or npm run dev
# Run linting
pnpm lint
# or npm run lint
# Run formatting
pnpm format
# or npm run format
# Run build test
pnpm build
# or npm run build
```
### 10. Initialize Git Repository
```bash
# Add remote repository (replace with your repository URL)
git remote add origin https://github.com/yourusername/{project_name}.git
# Make initial commit with template
git add .
git commit -m "feat: initialize project from nextjs-new-app template
- Set up Next.js 15+ with TypeScript and Tailwind CSS 4.x
- Implemented Feature-Based Architecture structure
- Added BaseController foundation for database-agnostic patterns
- Configured development tooling (ESLint, Prettier, Husky)
Template: https://github.com/marciobarroso/nextjs-new-app"
# Push to remote repository
git push -u origin main
```

# Setup Project from nextjs-new-app Template
## Task Overview
Initialize a new Feature-Based Architecture project using the pre-configured `nextjs-new-app` template with Next.js 15+, TypeScript, Tailwind CSS 4.x, and development tooling.
## Prerequisites
- Node.js 20.10.0+ installed
- pnpm (recommended) or npm package manager
- Git for version control
- Access to https://github.com/marciobarroso/nextjs-new-app
## Steps
### 1. Clone Template Repository
```bash
# Clone the nextjs-new-app template
git clone https://github.com/marciobarroso/nextjs-new-app.git {project_name}
cd {project_name}
# Remove original git history and initialize new repository
rm -rf .git
git init
git add .
git commit -m "Initial commit from nextjs-new-app template"
```
### 2. Install Dependencies
```bash
# Install using pnpm (recommended by template)
pnpm install
# Alternative: using npm
# npm install
```
### 3. Configure Project Details
Update `package.json`:
```json
{
"name": "{project_name}",
"version": "1.0.0",
"description": "{project_description}",
"author": "{author_name}"
}
```
### 4. Set Up Feature-Based Architecture Structure
```bash
# Create the Feature-Based Architecture directories
mkdir -p app/\(features\)
mkdir -p app/shared/core
mkdir -p app/shared/types
mkdir -p app/shared/lib
# The template already provides:
# - app/shared/components/
# - app/shared/hooks/
# - app/shared/lib/
# - app/shared/locales/
```
### 5. Implement BaseController Foundation
Create `app/shared/core/base-controller.ts`:
```typescript
import { z } from 'zod';
import { NextRequest, NextResponse } from 'next/server';
export abstract class BaseController {
protected dbClient: any;
protected schema?: z.ZodSchema;
constructor(dbClient: any, schema?: z.ZodSchema) {
this.dbClient = dbClient;
this.schema = schema;
}
// Standard CRUD operations
async getAll(request: NextRequest): Promise {
try {
const { searchParams } = new URL(request.url);
const query = searchParams.get('query');
const page = parseInt(searchParams.get('page') || '1');
const limit = parseInt(searchParams.get('limit') || '20');
const filter = this.buildSearchFilter(query);
// Implement database-specific query here
return NextResponse.json({
data: [],
pagination: { page, limit, total: 0, totalPages: 0 },
success: true,
});
} catch (error) {
return NextResponse.json(
{ error: 'Failed to fetch records', success: false },
{ status: 500 },
);
}
}
async getById(
request: NextRequest,
{ params }: { params: { id: string } },
): Promise {

// Implement database-specific findById here
return NextResponse.json({ data: null, success: true });
} catch (error) {
return NextResponse.json(
{ error: 'Failed to fetch record', success: false },
{ status: 500 },
);
}
}
async create(request: NextRequest): Promise {
try {
const body = await request.json();
if (this.schema) {
const validatedData = this.schema.parse(body);
// Implement database-specific create here
}
return NextResponse.json({ data: null, success: true }, { status: 201 });
} catch (error) {
if (error instanceof z.ZodError) {
return NextResponse.json(
{ error: 'Validation failed', details: error.errors, success: false },
{ status: 400 },
);
}
return NextResponse.json(
{ error: 'Failed to create record', success: false },
{ status: 500 },
);
}
}
async update(
request: NextRequest,
{ params }: { params: { id: string } },
): Promise {
try {
const body = await request.json();
if (this.schema) {
const validatedData = this.schema.partial().parse(body);
// Implement database-specific update here
}
return NextResponse.json({ data: null, success: true });
} catch (error) {
if (error instanceof z.ZodError) {
return NextResponse.json(
{ error: 'Validation failed', details: error.errors, success: false },
{ status: 400 },
);
}
return NextResponse.json(
{ error: 'Failed to update record', success: false },
{ status: 500 },
);
}
}
async delete(
request: NextRequest,
{ params }: { params: { id: string } },
): Promise {
try {
// Implement database-specific delete here
return NextResponse.json({ success: true, message: 'Record deleted successfully' });
} catch (error) {
return NextResponse.json(
{ error: 'Failed to delete record', success: false },
{ status: 500 },
);
}
}
// Abstract method for search filtering
protected abstract buildSearchFilter(query: string | null): Record;
}
```
### 6. Add Zod for Schema Validation
```bash
# Install Zod for schema validation
pnpm add zod
# or npm install zod

# Create API Endpoint
## Task Overview
Create a new API endpoint in Next.js with proper TypeScript typing, validation, and error handling.
## Prerequisites
- Next.js project with App Router
- TypeScript configured
- Understanding of HTTP methods and status codes
## Steps
### 1. Create API Route File
Create `src/app/api/{endpoint}/route.ts`:
```typescript
import { NextRequest, NextResponse } from 'next/server';
// Define request/response types
interface RequestBody {
// Define your request body structure
}
interface ResponseData {
// Define your response structure
}
export async function GET(request: NextRequest) {
try {
// Handle GET request logic
const data: ResponseData = {
// Your response data
};
return NextResponse.json(data, { status: 200 });
} catch (error) {
console.error('API Error:', error);
return NextResponse.json({ error: 'Internal server error' }, { status: 500 });
}
}
export async function POST(request: NextRequest) {
try {
const body: RequestBody = await request.json();
// Validate request body
if (!body) {
return NextResponse.json({ error: 'Request body is required' }, { status: 400 });
}
// Handle POST request logic
const data: ResponseData = {
// Your response data
};
return NextResponse.json(data, { status: 201 });
} catch (error) {
console.error('API Error:', error);
return NextResponse.json({ error: 'Internal server error' }, { status: 500 });
}
}
```
### 2. Add Request Validation (Optional)
Install and use Zod for validation:
```bash
npm install zod
```
```typescript
import { z } from 'zod';
const requestSchema = z.object({
name: z.string().min(1),
email: z.string().email(),
});
export async function POST(request: NextRequest) {
try {
const body = await request.json();
const validatedData = requestSchema.parse(body);
// Use validatedData safely
} catch (error) {
if (error instanceof z.ZodError) {
return NextResponse.json(
{ error: 'Invalid request data', details: error.errors },
{ status: 400 },
);
}
// Handle other errors
}
}
```
### 3. Create API Client Helper
Create `src/lib/api-client.ts`:
```typescript
class ApiError extends Error {
constructor(
public status: number,
message: string,
) {
super(message);
this.name = 'ApiError';
}
}
export async function apiCall(url: string, options?: RequestInit): Promise {
const response = await fetch(url, {
headers: {
'Content-Type': 'application/json',
...options?.headers,
},
...options,
});
if (!response.ok) {
throw new ApiError(response.status, `HTTP error! status: ${response.status}`);
}
return response.json();
}
```
### 4. Use in Components
```typescript
'use client'
import { useState } from 'react'
import { apiCall } from '@/lib/api-client'
export function ExampleComponent() {
const [loading, setLoading] = useState(false)
const [data, setData] = useState(null)
const handleSubmit = async () => {
setLoading(true)
try {
const result = await apiCall('/api/example', {
method: 'POST',
body: JSON.stringify({ /* your data */ }),
})
setData(result)
} catch (error) {
console.error('Error:', error)
} finally {
setLoading(false)
}
}
return (
// Your component JSX
)
}
```
## Validation Checklist
- [ ] API route file created in correct location
- [ ] Proper TypeScript types defined
- [ ] Error handling implemented
- [ ] Request validation added (if needed)
- [ ] API tested with different HTTP methods
- [ ] Client-side integration working
- [ ] Error cases handled gracefully
## Best Practices
- Use proper HTTP status codes
- Implement consistent error response format
- Add request validation for security
- Log errors for debugging
- Consider rate limiting for production
- Document API endpoints

# Create API Endpoint
## Task Overview
Create a new API endpoint in Next.js with proper TypeScript typing, validation, and error handling.
## Prerequisites
- Next.js project with App Router
- TypeScript configured
- Understanding of HTTP methods and status codes
## Steps
### 1. Create API Route File
Create `src/app/api/{endpoint}/route.ts`:
```typescript
import { NextRequest, NextResponse } from 'next/server';
// Define request/response types
interface RequestBody {
// Define your request body structure
}
interface ResponseData {
// Define your response structure
}
export async function GET(request: NextRequest) {
try {
// Handle GET request logic
const data: ResponseData = {
// Your response data
};
return NextResponse.json(data, { status: 200 });
} catch (error) {
console.error('API Error:', error);
return NextResponse.json({ error: 'Internal server error' }, { status: 500 });
}
}
export async function POST(request: NextRequest) {
try {
const body: RequestBody = await request.json();
// Validate request body
if (!body) {
return NextResponse.json({ error: 'Request body is required' }, { status: 400 });
}
// Handle POST request logic
const data: ResponseData = {
// Your response data
};
return NextResponse.json(data, { status: 201 });
} catch (error) {
console.error('API Error:', error);
return NextResponse.json({ error: 'Internal server error' }, { status: 500 });
}
}
```
### 2. Add Request Validation (Optional)
Install and use Zod for validation:
```bash
npm install zod
```
```typescript
import { z } from 'zod';
const requestSchema = z.object({
name: z.string().min(1),
email: z.string().email(),
});
export async function POST(request: NextRequest) {
try {
const body = await request.json();
const validatedData = requestSchema.parse(body);
// Use validatedData safely
} catch (error) {
if (error instanceof z.ZodError) {
return NextResponse.json(
{ error: 'Invalid request data', details: error.errors },
{ status: 400 },
);
}
// Handle other errors
}
}
```
### 3. Create API Client Helper
Create `src/lib/api-client.ts`:
```typescript
class ApiError extends Error {
constructor(
public status: number,
message: string,
) {
super(message);
this.name = 'ApiError';
}
}
export async function apiCall(url: string, options?: RequestInit): Promise {
const response = await fetch(url, {
headers: {
'Content-Type': 'application/json',
...options?.headers,
},
...options,
});
if (!response.ok) {
throw new ApiError(response.status, `HTTP error! status: ${response.status}`);
}
return response.json();
}
```
### 4. Use in Components
```typescript
'use client'
import { useState } from 'react'
import { apiCall } from '@/lib/api-client'
export function ExampleComponent() {
const [loading, setLoading] = useState(false)
const [data, setData] = useState(null)
const handleSubmit = async () => {
setLoading(true)
try {
const result = await apiCall('/api/example', {
method: 'POST',
body: JSON.stringify({ /* your data */ }),
})
setData(result)
} catch (error) {
console.error('Error:', error)
} finally {
setLoading(false)
}
}
return (
// Your component JSX
)
}
```

# Setup Project from nextjs-new-app Template
## Task Overview
Initialize a new Feature-Based Architecture project using the pre-configured `nextjs-new-app` template with Next.js 15+, TypeScript, Tailwind CSS 4.x, and development tooling.
## Prerequisites
- Node.js 20.10.0+ installed
- pnpm (recommended) or npm package manager
- Git for version control
- Access to https://github.com/marciobarroso/nextjs-new-app
## Steps
### 1. Clone Template Repository
```bash
# Clone the nextjs-new-app template
git clone https://github.com/marciobarroso/nextjs-new-app.git {project_name}
cd {project_name}
# Remove original git history and initialize new repository
rm -rf .git
git init
git add .
git commit -m "Initial commit from nextjs-new-app template"
```
### 2. Install Dependencies
```bash
# Install using pnpm (recommended by template)
pnpm install
# Alternative: using npm
# npm install
```
### 3. Configure Project Details
Update `package.json`:
```json
{
"name": "{project_name}",
"version": "1.0.0",
"description": "{project_description}",
"author": "{author_name}"
}
```
### 4. Set Up Feature-Based Architecture Structure
```bash
# Create the Feature-Based Architecture directories
mkdir -p app/\(features\)
mkdir -p app/shared/core
mkdir -p app/shared/types
mkdir -p app/shared/lib
# The template already provides:
# - app/shared/components/
# - app/shared/hooks/
# - app/shared/lib/
# - app/shared/locales/
```
### 5. Implement BaseController Foundation
Create `app/shared/core/base-controller.ts`:
```typescript
import { z } from 'zod';
import { NextRequest, NextResponse } from 'next/server';
export abstract class BaseController {
protected dbClient: any;
protected schema?: z.ZodSchema;
constructor(dbClient: any, schema?: z.ZodSchema) {
this.dbClient = dbClient;
this.schema = schema;
}
// Standard CRUD operations
async getAll(request: NextRequest): Promise {
try {
const { searchParams } = new URL(request.url);
const query = searchParams.get('query');
const page = parseInt(searchParams.get('page') || '1');
const limit = parseInt(searchParams.get('limit') || '20');
const filter = this.buildSearchFilter(query);
// Implement database-specific query here
return NextResponse.json({
data: [],
pagination: { page, limit, total: 0, totalPages: 0 },
success: true,
});
} catch (error) {
return NextResponse.json(
{ error: 'Failed to fetch records', success: false },
{ status: 500 },
);
}
}
async getById(
request: NextRequest,
{ params }: { params: { id: string } },
): Promise {
try {
// Implement database-specific findById here
return NextResponse.json({ data: null, success: true });
} catch (error) {
return NextResponse.json(
{ error: 'Failed to fetch record', success: false },
{ status: 500 },
);
}
}
async create(request: NextRequest): Promise {
try {
const body = await request.json();
if (this.schema) {
const validatedData = this.schema.parse(body);
// Implement database-specific create here
}
return NextResponse.json({ data: null, success: true }, { status: 201 });
} catch (error) {
if (error instanceof z.ZodError) {
return NextResponse.json(
{ error: 'Validation failed', details: error.errors, success: false },
{ status: 400 },
);
}
return NextResponse.json(
{ error: 'Failed to create record', success: false },
{ status: 500 },
);
}
}
async update(
request: NextRequest,
{ params }: { params: { id: string } },
): Promise {
try {
const body = await request.json();
if (this.schema) {
const validatedData = this.schema.partial().parse(body);
// Implement database-specific update here
}
return NextResponse.json({ data: null, success: true });
} catch (error) {
if (error instanceof z.ZodError) {
return NextResponse.json(
{ error: 'Validation failed', details: error.errors, success: false },
{ status: 400 },
);
}
return NextResponse.json(
{ error: 'Failed to update record', success: false },
{ status: 500 },
);
}
}
async delete(
request: NextRequest,
{ params }: { params: { id: string } },
): Promise {
try {
// Implement database-specific delete here
return NextResponse.json({ success: true, message: 'Record deleted successfully' });
} catch (error) {
return NextResponse.json(
{ error: 'Failed to delete record', success: false },
{ status: 500 },
);
}
}
// Abstract method for search filtering
protected abstract buildSearchFilter(query: string | null): Record;
}
```
### 6. Add Zod for Schema Validation
```bash
# Install Zod for schema validation
pnpm add zod
# or npm install zod
```
### 7. Configure Environment Variables
Create `.env.local`:
```env
# Database Configuration (customize based on your choice)
DATABASE_URL="your-database-url"
# Next.js Configuration
NEXT_PUBLIC_APP_NAME="{project_name}"
NEXT_PUBLIC_APP_VERSION="1.0.0"
# Add other environment variables as needed
```
### 8. Update TypeScript Configuration
The template already provides optimal TypeScript configuration, but you can extend `tsconfig.json` if needed:
```json
{
"compilerOptions": {
// Template already includes optimal settings
"baseUrl": ".",
"paths": {
"@/*": ["./*"]
}
}
}
```
### 9. Test the Setup
```bash
# Run development server
pnpm dev
# or npm run dev
# Run linting
pnpm lint
# or npm run lint
# Run formatting
pnpm format
# or npm run format
# Run build test
pnpm build
# or npm run build
```
### 10. Initialize Git Repository
```bash
# Add remote repository (replace with your repository URL)
git remote add origin https://github.com/yourusername/{project_name}.git
# Make initial commit with template
git add .
git commit -m "feat: initialize project from nextjs-new-app template
- Set up Next.js 15+ with TypeScript and Tailwind CSS 4.x
- Implemented Feature-Based Architecture structure
