Build More Architect Dreams — An AI-driven agile development module for the BMad Method Module Ecosystem, the best and most comprehensive Agile AI Driven Development framework that has true scale-adaptive intelligence that adjusts from bug fixes to enterprise systems.

100% free and open source. No paywalls. No gated content. No gated Discord. We believe in empowering everyone, not just those who can pay for a gated community or courses.

Why the BMad Method?

Traditional AI tools do the thinking for you, producing average results. BMad agents and facilitated workflows act as expert collaborators who guide you through a structured process to bring out your best thinking in partnership with the AI.

• AI Intelligent Help — Invoke the bmad-help skill anytime for guidance on what's next
• Scale-Domain-Adaptive — Automatically adjusts planning depth based on project complexity
• Structured Workflows — Grounded in agile best practices across analysis, planning, architecture, and implementation
• Specialized Agents — 12+ domain experts (PM, Architect, Developer, UX, and more)
• Party Mode — Bring multiple agent personas into one session to collaborate and discuss
• Complete Lifecycle — From brainstorming to deployment

Quick Start

Prerequisites: Node.js v20+ · Python 3.10+ · uv

npx bmad-method install

Want the newest prerelease build? Use npx bmad-method@next install. Expect higher churn than the default install.

Follow the installer prompts, then open your AI IDE (Claude Code, Cursor, etc.) in your project folder.

Non-Interactive Installation (for CI/CD):

npx bmad-method install --directory /path/to/project --modules bmm --tools claude-code --yes

Override any module config option with --set <module>.<key>=<value> (repeatable). Run --list-options [module] to see locally-known official keys (built-in modules plus any external officials cached on this machine):

npx bmad-method install --yes \
  --modules bmm --tools claude-code \
  --set bmm.project_knowledge=research \
  --set bmm.user_skill_level=expert

See all installation options

Not sure what to do? Ask bmad-help — it tells you exactly what's next and what's optional. You can also ask questions like bmad-help I just finished the architecture, what do I do next?
