Template discipline for downstream AI extraction: - §3 Glossary: exact-use enforcement (FRs, UJs, SMs use Glossary terms verbatim) - §4 Features: FRs now use "#### FR-N: Name" heading with Realizes UJ-X cross-reference, testable consequences, and optional per-FR Out of Scope - §7 Success Metrics: SM-N / SM-CN numbering with Validates FR-X cross-reference User journeys: - §2.4 UJ format expanded from one-liner to named-persona mini-flow (persona, 3-5 steps, edge cases, optional capability surfacing); hobby can collapse to one-liners - Strip "job of UX" / "not this PRD" gatekeeping from template; depth is the team's call - Strengthen UX-as-input / UX-as-output patterns for bidirectional PRD <-> UX flow - SKILL.md Discovery Posture: push for two to three named-persona UJs in non-trivial scope Validation checklist: - Q-3 Traceability tightened to require Realizes UJ-X on FRs and Validates FR-X on SMs - Q-7 (new): FR testability — every FR has at least one testable consequence - S-1 Glossary integrity: now covers FR descriptions, consequences, UJ flows, SM definitions - S-2: SM added to ID continuity scope - S-5 (new): UJ persona linkage — every UJ names a persona by exact §2 label - STK-2 (new): UJ density gate — non-hobby scope needs at least two UJs |

README.md
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-helpskill 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

🚀 What's Next for BMad?
V6 is here and we're just getting started! The BMad Method is evolving rapidly with optimizations including Cross Platform Agent Team and Sub Agent inclusion, Skills Architecture, BMad Builder v1, Dev Loop Automation, and so much more in the works.
📍 Check out the complete Roadmap →
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
Not sure what to do? Ask
bmad-help— it tells you exactly what's next and what's optional. You can also ask questions likebmad-help I just finished the architecture, what do I do next?
Modules
BMad Method extends with official modules for specialized domains. Available during installation or anytime after.
| Module | Purpose |
