Re-applies PR #2282's three-layer customization model (skill defaults → team → user) but swaps YAML for TOML and uv for stdlib tomllib. Users no longer need uv, pip, or a virtualenv — plain python3 (3.11+) is sufficient, since tomllib shipped in the standard library. ## Schema changes vs PR #2282 - Flat agent schema: fields live directly under [agent], no nested metadata/persona sub-tables. Easier to author, less indentation. - Non-configurable identity: name and title are declared in customize.toml as source-of-truth metadata (for future skill-manifest generation) but SKILL.md ignores overrides there — identity is hardcoded to preserve brand recognition. - role redefined: now describes what the skill does for the user within its module phase, not a restatement of the title. - persistent_facts replaces the activation-time file-context load AND the old memories concept. Entries can be literal sentences or file: prefixed paths/globs; avoids collision with the upcoming runtime memory sidecar. - activation_steps_prepend / activation_steps_append harmonized across agents and workflows (replaces agent-specific critical_actions). - [workflow] namespace mirrors [agent] for workflow customization. Same four structural rules, same field vocabulary. ## Resolver (src/scripts/resolve_customization.py) Four purely structural merge rules, zero field-name hardcoding: - Scalars: override wins - Tables: deep merge - Arrays of tables where every item has `code` or `id`: merge by that key (matching keys replace, new keys append) - Any other array: append No removal mechanism — overrides cannot delete base items. Fork the skill or override by code with a no-op value to suppress defaults. ## Agents ported (6) All six BMad agents now ship customize.toml + rewritten SKILL.md: analyst (Mary), tech-writer (Paige), pm (John), ux-designer (Sally), architect (Winston), dev (Amelia). Each uses the same 8-step activation template: resolve → execute prepend → adopt persona → load persistent facts → load config → greet (with {agent.icon}) → execute append → dispatch or present menu. Step 8 supports fast-path invocation: "hey Mary, let's brainstorm" dispatches the matching menu item directly after greeting, skipping the menu render when intent is clear. Chat, clarifying questions, and bmad-help remain available when nothing on the menu fits. ## Installer + tooling - _bmad/scripts/ provisioned on install (copies src/scripts/) - _bmad/custom/ seeded with .gitignore for *.user.toml on fresh install - Non-module-dir filter extended to skip _memory, memory, docs, scripts, and custom when scanning for modules - Dead _config/agents/ directory no longer created - metadata.capabilities removed from agent-manifest.csv and schema - eslint config extended to cover src/scripts/** - validate-file-refs.js knows about custom/ as install-only ## Deferred for follow-up - bmad-product-brief workflow port (the pilot that demonstrates [workflow] + on_complete) - Translated docs (cs/fr/vi-vn/zh-cn) — regenerate from English |

BMad CLI Tool
Installing external repo BMad official modules
For external official modules to be discoverable during install, ensure an entry for the external repo is added to external-official-modules.yaml.
For community modules - this will be handled in a different way. This file is only for registration of modules under the bmad-code-org.
Post-Install Notes
Modules can display setup guidance to users after configuration is collected during npx bmad-method install. Notes are defined in the module's own module.yaml — no changes to the installer are needed.
Simple Format
Always displayed after the module is configured:
post-install-notes: |
Thank you for choosing the XYZ Cool Module
For Support about this Module call 555-1212
Conditional Format
Display different messages based on a config question's answer:
post-install-notes:
config_key_name:
value1: |
Instructions for value1...
value2: |
Instructions for value2...
Values without an entry (e.g., none) display nothing. Multiple config keys can each have their own conditional notes.
Example: TEA Module
The TEA module uses the conditional format keyed on tea_browser_automation:
post-install-notes:
tea_browser_automation:
cli: |
Playwright CLI Setup:
npm install -g @playwright/cli@latest
playwright-cli install --skills
mcp: |
Playwright MCP Setup (two servers):
1. playwright — npx @playwright/mcp@latest
2. playwright-test — npx playwright run-test-mcp-server
auto: |
Playwright CLI Setup:
...
Playwright MCP Setup (two servers):
...
When a user selects auto, they see both CLI and MCP instructions. When they select none, nothing is shown.
