# Commands
|
|
|
|
BMAD slash commands are generated by the installer for your IDE and **reflect the modules you have installed**.
|
|
That means the authoritative list lives **in your project**, not in a static docs page.
|
|
|
|
## How to Discover Commands (Recommended)
|
|
|
|
- Type `/bmad` in your IDE and use autocomplete to browse agents/workflows.
|
|
- Run `/bmad-help` to get guided next steps and context-aware recommendations.
|
|
|
|
## Where Commands Are Generated
|
|
|
|
The installer writes command files into your project. The location and format depend on your AI tool:
|
|
|
|
| AI Tool | Location | File Reference Syntax |
|
|
| --- | --- | --- |
|
|
| Claude Code | `.claude/commands/` | `@path` references |
|
|
| Kiro | `.kiro/steering/` | `#[[file:path]]` references with `inclusion: manual` frontmatter |
|
|
| Cursor | `.cursor/commands/` | `@path` references |
|
|
| Windsurf | `.windsurf/workflows/` | `@{project-root}/path` references |
|
|
|
|
Example paths for Claude Code:
|
|
|
|
- `.claude/commands/bmad/<module>/agents/`
|
|
- `.claude/commands/bmad/<module>/workflows/`
|
|
|
|
All tools invoke the same underlying `_bmad/` workflows and agents — only the launcher format differs.
|
|
|
|
These folders are the **canonical, project-specific command list**.
|
|
|
|
## Common Commands
|
|
|
|
- `/bmad-help` - Interactive help and next-step guidance
|
|
- `/bmad:<module>:agents:<agent>` - Load an agent (e.g. `/bmad:bmm:agents:dev`)
|
|
- `/bmad:<module>:workflows:<workflow>` - Run a workflow (e.g. `/bmad:bmm:workflows:create-prd`)
|
|
|
|
## Why This Page Is Short
|
|
|
|
BMAD is modular, so the exact commands vary by install.
|
|
Use your IDE's autocomplete or the generated command folders above to see *everything* available.
