# Agent Architecture for Modules
|
||||
|
||||
**Purpose:** High-level guidance for planning agents in your module — not implementation details (that's what the agent-builder workflow is for).
|
||||
|
||||
---
|
||||
|
||||
## Single Agent vs. Multi-Agent Module
|
||||
|
||||
### Single Agent Module
|
||||
|
||||
**Use when:** One persona can handle the module's purpose.
|
||||
|
||||
**Characteristics:**
|
||||
- Simpler, focused
|
||||
- Clear single point of contact
|
||||
- Good for narrow domains
|
||||
|
||||
**Question:** Could one expert agent with a sidecar handle this entire module?
|
||||
|
||||
---
|
||||
|
||||
### Multi-Agent Module
|
||||
|
||||
**Use when:** Different expertise areas justify specialized personas.
|
||||
|
||||
**Characteristics:**
|
||||
- Each agent has a distinct role and expertise
|
||||
- Agents form a cohesive team around the module's theme
|
||||
- Menus coordinate to guide users to the right agent
|
||||
|
||||
**Why multi-agent?**
|
||||
- Different workflows need different expert perspectives
|
||||
- Users expect to talk to "the right expert" for each task
|
||||
- The module covers a domain too broad for one persona
|
||||
|
||||
---
|
||||
|
||||
## Flagship Example: BMM Agent Team
|
||||
|
||||
BMM demonstrates a multi-agent module with **9 specialized agents** forming a complete software development team.
|
||||
|
||||
### The BMM Theme
|
||||
|
||||
**"Agile software delivery, AI-driven"**
|
||||
|
||||
Every agent serves this theme — they're a complete team working together.
|
||||
|
||||
### BMM Agent Overview
|
||||
|
||||
| Agent | Name | Role | Responsible For |
|
||||
|-------|------|------|-----------------|
|
||||
| PM | John | Product Manager | PRDs, requirements, user stories |
|
||||
| Architect | Winston | System Architect | Technical design, architecture |
|
||||
| UX | | UX Designer | User research, UX design |
|
||||
| Dev | | Developer | Implementation, coding |
|
||||
| TEA | | Test Engineer Architect | Test architecture, QA |
|
||||
| SM | | Scrum Master | Sprint planning, workflow status |
|
||||
| Tech Writer | | Technical Writer | Documentation |
|
||||
| Analyst | | Business Analyst | Analysis, metrics |
|
||||
| Quick Flow | | Solo Developer | Quick standalone work |
|
||||
|
||||
### Key Patterns
|
||||
|
||||
1. **Shared commands** — All agents have `[WS]` Workflow Status
|
||||
2. **Specialty commands** — Each agent has unique commands (PM→PRD, Architect→Architecture)
|
||||
3. **No overlap** — Each command has one clear owner
|
||||
4. **Collaboration** — Agents reference each other's work (PRD → Architecture → Implementation)
|
||||
|
||||
---
|
||||
|
||||
## Planning Your Agents
|
||||
|
||||
### For Each Agent, Document:
|
||||
|
||||
1. **Role** — What is this agent responsible for?
|
||||
2. **Workflows** — Which workflows will this agent trigger/own?
|
||||
3. **Human Name** — What's their persona name? (e.g., "John", "Winston")
|
||||
4. **Communication Style** — How do they talk? (e.g., "Direct and data-sharp", "Calm and pragmatic")
|
||||
5. **Skills/Expertise** — What knowledge does this agent bring?
|
||||
6. **Memory/Learning** — Does this agent need to remember things over time? (hasSidecar)
|
||||
|
||||
That's it! The agent-builder workflow will handle the detailed implementation.
|
||||
|
||||
---
|
||||
|
||||
## Agent Memory & Learning
|
||||
|
||||
### Sidecar Agents (hasSidecar: true)
|
||||
|
||||
**Use when:** The agent needs to remember context across sessions.
|
||||
|
||||
**Characteristics:**
|
||||
- Has a sidecar file that persists between conversations
|
||||
- Learns from user interactions
|
||||
- Remembers project details, preferences, past work
|
||||
|
||||
**Examples:**
|
||||
- An agent that tracks project decisions over time
|
||||
- An agent that learns user preferences
|
||||
- An agent that maintains ongoing project context
|
||||
|
||||
### Stateless Agents (hasSidecar: false)
|
||||
|
||||
**Use when:** The agent doesn't need persistent memory.
|
||||
|
||||
**Characteristics:**
|
||||
- Each conversation starts fresh
|
||||
- Relies on shared context files (like project-context.md)
|
||||
- Simpler, more predictable
|
||||
|
||||
**Most module agents are stateless** — they reference shared project context rather than maintaining their own memory.
|
||||
|
||||
---
|
||||
|
||||
## Agent-Workflow Coordination
|
||||
|
||||
### Menu Triggers
|
||||
|
||||
Each agent has menu items that trigger workflows:
|
||||
|
||||
| Trigger Type | Pattern | Example |
|
||||
|--------------|---------|---------|
|
||||
| Shared | Same across all agents | `[WS]` Workflow Status |
|
||||
| Specialty | Unique to this agent | `[PR]` Create PRD (PM only) |
|
||||
| Cross-reference | Points to another agent's workflow | "See architecture" |
|
||||
|
||||
### Simple Planning Format
|
||||
|
||||
For each agent, just document:
|
||||
|
||||
```
|
||||
Agent: PM (John)
|
||||
Role: Product Manager, requirements, PRDs
|
||||
Triggers:
|
||||
- WS → Workflow Status (shared)
|
||||
- PR → Create PRD (specialty)
|
||||
- ES → Epics and Stories (specialty)
|
||||
Memory: No (uses shared project-context)
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
The agent-builder workflow will convert this into the proper format.
|
||||
|
||||
---
|
||||
|
||||
## When to Use Multiple Agents
|
||||
|
||||
**Consider multiple agents when:**
|
||||
- Different workflows require different expertise
|
||||
- The domain has clear specialization areas
|
||||
- Users would expect to talk to different "experts"
|
||||
- The module covers a broad process (like software development)
|
||||
|
||||
**Use a single agent when:**
|
||||
- The domain is focused and narrow
|
||||
- One expertise area covers all workflows
|
||||
- Simplicity is preferred
|
||||
- The agent could reasonably handle everything with a sidecar
|
||||
|
||||
---
|
||||
|
||||
## Quick Agent Planning Checklist
|
||||
|
||||
For each agent in your module:
|
||||
|
||||
- [ ] Role defined (what they're responsible for)
|
||||
- [ ] Workflows assigned (which workflows they trigger)
|
||||
- [ ] Human name chosen (persona)
|
||||
- [ ] Communication style described
|
||||
- [ ] Skills/expertise identified
|
||||
- [ ] Memory decision (hasSidecar: true/false)
|
||||
|
||||
---
|
||||
|
||||
## Notes
|
||||
|
||||
- **Don't worry about the exact YAML format** — agent-builder handles that
|
||||
- **Focus on the planning** — who does what, how they work together
|
||||
- **Keep it high-level** — this is about the module's agent architecture, not implementation details
|
||||
- **BMM is the reference** — look at how their agents form a cohesive team

# Module Installer Standards
|
||||
|
||||
**Purpose:** How the `_module-installer` folder works, including installer.js patterns and platform-specific configuration.
|
||||
|
||||
---
|
||||
|
||||
## Overview
|
||||
|
||||
The `_module-installer` folder contains optional installation logic for your module. It runs AFTER the IDE installations and can:
|
||||
- Create directories specified in module.yaml
|
||||
- Copy assets or templates
|
||||
- Configure IDE-specific settings
|
||||
- Set up platform-specific integrations
|
||||
|
||||
---
|
||||
|
||||
## When Do You Need an Installer?
|
||||
|
||||
### Use an Installer When:
|
||||
|
||||
- Creating directories based on user configuration
|
||||
- Copying template files to the user's project
|
||||
- IDE-specific setup (Claude Code, Windsurf, Cursor, etc.)
|
||||
- Platform-specific integrations
|
||||
|
||||
### Skip the Installer When:
|
||||
|
||||
- Module only provides agents and workflows
|
||||
- No file operations needed
|
||||
- No IDE-specific configuration
|
||||
|
||||
---
|
||||
|
||||
## Folder Structure
|
||||
|
||||
```
|
||||
_module-installer/
|
||||
├── installer.js # Main installer (REQUIRED if folder exists)
|
||||
└── platform-specifics/ # IDE-specific handlers (optional)
|
||||
├── claude-code.js
|
||||
├── windsurf.js
|
||||
├── cursor.js
|
||||
└── ...
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
---
|
||||
|
||||
## installer.js Pattern
|
||||
|
||||
### Function Signature
|
||||
|
||||
```javascript
|
||||
/**
|
||||
* Module Installer
|
||||
*
|
||||
* @param {Object} options - Installation options
|
||||
* @param {string} options.projectRoot - The root directory of the target project
|
||||
* @param {Object} options.config - Module configuration from module.yaml (resolved variables)
|
||||
* @param {Array<string>} options.installedIDEs - Array of IDE codes that were installed
|
||||
* @param {Object} options.logger - Logger instance for output
|
||||
* @returns {Promise<boolean>} - Success status (true = success, false = failure)
|
||||
*/
|
||||
async function install(options) {
|
||||
const { projectRoot, config, installedIDEs, logger } = options;
|
||||
|
||||
try {
|
||||
// Installation logic here
|
||||
logger.log(chalk.blue('Installing {Module Name}...'));
|
||||
|
||||
// ... your logic ...
|
||||
|
||||
logger.log(chalk.green('✓ {Module Name} installation complete'));
|
||||
return true;
|
||||
} catch (error) {
|
||||
logger.error(chalk.red(`Error installing module: ${error.message}`));
|
||||
return false;
|
||||
}
|
||||
}
|
||||
|
||||
module.exports = { install };
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
---
|
||||
|
||||
### What You Receive
|
||||
|
||||
| Parameter | Type | Description |
|
||||
|-----------|------|-------------|
|
||||
| `projectRoot` | string | Absolute path to the user's project root |
|
||||
| `config` | object | Resolved module.yaml variables |
|
||||
| `installedIDEs` | array | List of IDE codes installed (e.g., `['claude-code', 'windsurf']`) |
|
||||
| `logger` | object | Logger with `.log()`, `.warn()`, `.error()` methods |
|
||||
|
||||
The `config` object contains your module.yaml variables **after** user input:
|
||||
|
||||
```javascript
|
||||
// If module.yaml defined:
|
||||
// project_name:
|
||||
// prompt: "What is your project name?"
|
||||
// result: "{value}"
|
||||
|
||||
config.project_name // = user's input
|
||||
config.planning_artifacts // = resolved path
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
---
|
||||
|
||||
## Common Installation Tasks
|
||||
|
||||
### 1. Create Directories
|
||||
|
||||
```javascript
|
||||
const fs = require('fs-extra');
|
||||
const path = require('node:path');
|
||||
|
||||
// Create directory from config
|
||||
if (config['planning_artifacts']) {
|
||||
const dirConfig = config['planning_artifacts'].replace('{project-root}/', '');
|
||||
const dirPath = path.join(projectRoot, dirConfig);
|
||||
|
||||
if (!(await fs.pathExists(dirPath))) {
|
||||
logger.log(chalk.yellow(`Creating directory: ${dirConfig}`));
|
||||
await fs.ensureDir(dirPath);
|
||||
}
|
||||
}
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
### 2. Copy Assets
|
||||
|
||||
```javascript
|
||||
const assetsSource = path.join(__dirname, 'assets');
|
||||
const assetsDest = path.join(projectRoot, 'docs');
|
||||
|
||||
if (await fs.pathExists(assetsSource)) {
|
||||
await fs.copy(assetsSource, assetsDest);
|
||||
logger.log(chalk.green('✓ Copied assets to docs/'));
|
||||
}
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
### 3. IDE-Specific Configuration
|
||||
|
||||
```javascript
|
||||
// Handle IDE-specific configurations
|
||||
if (installedIDEs && installedIDEs.length > 0) {
|
||||
logger.log(chalk.cyan(`Configuring for IDEs: ${installedIDEs.join(', ')}`));
|
||||
|
||||
for (const ide of installedIDEs) {
|
||||
await configureForIDE(ide, projectRoot, config, logger);
|
||||
}
|
||||
}
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
---
|
||||
|
||||
## Platform-Specific Handlers
|
||||
|
||||
### Pattern
|
||||
|
||||
Create files in `platform-specifics/{ide-code}.js`:
|
||||
|
||||
```javascript
|
||||
// platform-specifics/claude-code.js
|
||||
|
||||
/**
|
||||
* Configure module for Claude Code
|
||||
*/
|
||||
async function install(options) {
|
||||
const { projectRoot, config, logger, platformInfo } = options;
|
||||
|
||||
try {
|
||||
// Claude Code specific configuration
|
||||
logger.log(chalk.dim(' Configuring Claude Code integration...'));
|
||||
|
||||
// Your logic here
|
||||
|
||||
return true;
|
||||
} catch (error) {
|
||||
logger.warn(chalk.yellow(` Warning: ${error.message}`));
|
||||
return false;
|
||||
}
|
||||
}
|
||||
|
||||
module.exports = { install };
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
### Load from Main Installer
|
||||
|
||||
```javascript
|
||||
// installer.js
|
||||
const platformCodes = require(path.join(__dirname, '../../../../tools/cli/lib/platform-codes'));
|
||||
|
||||
async function configureForIDE(ide, projectRoot, config, logger) {
|
||||
// Validate platform code
|
||||
if (!platformCodes.isValidPlatform(ide)) {
|
||||
logger.warn(chalk.yellow(` Unknown platform: '${ide}'. Skipping.`));
|
||||
return;
|
||||
}
|
||||
|
||||
const platformName = platformCodes.getDisplayName(ide);
|
||||
const platformSpecificPath = path.join(__dirname, 'platform-specifics', `${ide}.js`);
|
||||
|
||||
try {
|
||||
if (await fs.pathExists(platformSpecificPath)) {
|
||||
const platformHandler = require(platformSpecificPath);
|
||||
|
||||
if (typeof platformHandler.install === 'function') {
|
||||
await platformHandler.install({ projectRoot, config, logger });
|
||||
logger.log(chalk.green(` ✓ Configured for ${platformName}`));
|
||||
}
|
||||
}
|
||||
} catch (error) {
|
||||
logger.warn(chalk.yellow(` Warning: Could not configure ${platformName}: ${error.message}`));
|
||||
}
|
||||
}
|
||||
```

logger.warn(chalk.yellow(` Warning: Could not load handler for ${ide}: ${error.message}`));
|
||||
}
|
||||
}
|
||||
|
||||
module.exports = { install };
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
---
|
||||
|
||||
## Best Practices
|
||||
|
||||
### DO:
|
||||
- Return `true` for success, `false` for failure
|
||||
- Use chalk for colored output
|
||||
- Log what you're doing (create, copy, configure)
|
||||
- Handle errors gracefully with try/catch
|
||||
- Validate paths before creating directories
|
||||
|
||||
### DON'T:
|
||||
- Assume paths exist — check with `fs.pathExists()`
|
||||
- Overwrite user files without asking
|
||||
- Fail silently — log errors
|
||||
- Use absolute paths — build from `projectRoot`
|
||||
|
||||
---
|
||||
|
||||
## Available Platform Codes
|
||||
|
||||
Common IDE codes:
|
||||
- `claude-code` — Anthropic's Claude Code
|
||||
- `windsurf` — Windsurf IDE
|
||||
- `cursor` — Cursor AI IDE
|
||||
- `vscode` — Visual Studio Code
|
||||
|
||||
Use `platformCodes.isValidPlatform(ide)` to validate.
|
||||
|
||||
---
|
||||
|
||||
## Testing Your Installer
|
||||
|
||||
1. Create a test project
|
||||
2. Run `bmad install {your-module}`
|
||||
3. Verify directories are created
|
||||
4. Check that config variables are resolved correctly
|
||||
5. Test platform-specific handlers
|
||||
|
||||

|
||||
|
||||
## Quick Reference
|
||||
|
||||
| Task | Code Pattern |
|
||||
|------|--------------|
|
||||
| Create directory | `await fs.ensureDir(path)` |
|
||||
| Check if exists | `await fs.pathExists(path)` |
|
||||
| Copy files | `await fs.copy(src, dest)` |
|
||||
| Log info | `logger.log(chalk.blue('message'))` |
|
||||
| Log success | `logger.log(chalk.green('✓ message'))` |
|
||||
| Log warning | `logger.warn(chalk.yellow('warning'))` |
|
||||
| Log error | `logger.error(chalk.red('error'))` |

# Module Standards
|
||||
|
||||
**Purpose:** Defines what a BMAD module is, its structure, and the three types of modules.
|
||||
|
||||
---
|
||||
|
||||
## What is a BMAD Module?
|
||||
|
||||
A **BMAD module** is a self-contained package of functionality that extends the BMAD framework. Modules provide:
|
||||
- **Agents** — AI personas with specialized expertise and menu-driven commands
|
||||
- **Workflows** — Structured processes for accomplishing complex tasks
|
||||
- **Configuration** — module.yaml for user customization
|
||||
- **Installation** — Optional installer.js for setup logic
|
||||
|
||||
---
|
||||
|
||||
## Module Types
|
||||
|
||||
### 1. Standalone Module
|
||||
|
||||
A new, independent module focused on a specific domain.
|
||||
|
||||
**Characteristics:**
|
||||
- Own module code (e.g., `healthcare-ai`, `legal-assist`)
|
||||
- Independent of other modules
|
||||
- Can be installed alongside any other modules
|
||||
- Has its own agents, workflows, configuration
|
||||
|
||||
**Location:** `src/modules/{module-code}/`
|
||||
|
||||
**Example:** CIS (Creative Innovation Suite) — a standalone module for innovation workflows
|
||||
|
||||
---
|
||||
|
||||
### 2. Extension Module
|
||||
|
||||
Extends an existing BMAD module with additional functionality.
|
||||
|
||||
**Characteristics:**
|
||||
- Builds upon an existing module's agents and workflows
|
||||
- May add new agents or workflows that complement the base module
|
||||
- Shares configuration context with the extended module
|
||||
- Typically installed alongside the module it extends
|
||||
|
||||
**Location:** `src/modules/{base-module}/extensions/{extension-code}/`
|
||||
|
||||
**Example:** An extension to BMM that adds specialized security review workflows
|
||||
|
||||
---
|
||||
|
||||
### Extension Module: Override & Merge Pattern
|
||||
|
||||
When an extension module is installed, its files merge with the base module following these rules:
|
||||
|
||||
#### Code Matching
|
||||
|
||||
The extension's `module.yaml` `code:` field matches the base module's code:
|
||||
|
||||
```yaml
|
||||
# Base module: src/modules/bmm/module.yaml
|
||||
code: bmm
|
||||
|
||||
# Extension: src/modules/bmm/extensions/security/module.yaml
|
||||
code: bmm # SAME CODE — extends BMM
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
The **folder name** is unique (e.g., `bmm-security`) but the `code:` matches the base module.
|
||||
|
||||
#### File Merge Rules
|
||||
|
||||
| File Type | Same Name | Different Name |
|
||||
|-----------|-----------|----------------|
|
||||
| Agent file | **OVERRIDE** — replaces the base agent | **ADD** — new agent added |
|
||||
| Workflow folder | **OVERRIDE** — replaces the base workflow | **ADD** — new workflow added |
|
||||
| Other files | **OVERRIDE** — replaces base file | **ADD** — new file added |
|
||||
|
||||
#### Examples
|
||||
|
||||
**Override scenario:**
|
||||
```
|
||||
Base module (BMM):
|
||||
├── agents/
|
||||
│ └── pm.agent.yaml # Original PM agent
|
||||
|
||||
Extension (bmm-security):
|
||||
├── agents/
|
||||
│ └── pm.agent.yaml # Security-focused PM — REPLACES original
|
||||
|
||||
Result after installation:
|
||||
├── agents/
|
||||
│ └── pm.agent.yaml # Now the security version
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
**Add scenario:**
|
||||
```
|
||||
Base module (BMM):
|
||||
├── agents/
|
||||
│ ├── pm.agent.yaml
|
||||
│ └── architect.agent.yaml
|
||||
|
||||
Extension (bmm-security):
|
||||
├── agents/
|
||||
│ └── security-auditor.agent.yaml # NEW agent
|
||||
|
||||
Result after installation:
|
||||
├── agents/
|
||||
│ ├── pm.agent.yaml
|
||||
│ ├── architect.agent.yaml
|
||||
│ └── security-auditor.agent.yaml # ADDED
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
**Mixed scenario:**
|
||||
```
|
||||
Extension contains both overrides and new files — applies rules per file
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
---
|
||||
|
||||
### 3. Global Module
|
||||
|
||||
Affects the entire BMAD framework and all modules.
|
||||
|
||||
**Characteristics:**
|
||||
- Core functionality that impacts all modules
|
||||
- Often provides foundational services or utilities
|
||||
- Installed at the framework level
|
||||
- Use sparingly — only for truly global concerns
|
||||
|
||||
**Location:** `src/modules/{module-code}/` with `global: true` in module.yaml
|
||||
|
||||
**Example:** A module that provides universal logging or telemetry across BMAD
|
||||
|
||||

|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
---
|
||||
|
||||
## Required Files
|
||||
|
||||
### module.yaml (REQUIRED)
|
||||
|
||||
Every module MUST have a `module.yaml` file with at minimum:
|
||||
|
||||
```yaml
|
||||
code: {module-code}
|
||||
name: "Module Display Name"
|
||||
header: "Brief module description"
|
||||
subheader: "Additional context"
|
||||
default_selected: false
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
See: `module-yaml-conventions.md` for full specification.
|
||||
|
||||
---
|
||||
|
||||
### README.md (REQUIRED)
|
||||
|
||||
Every module MUST have a README.md with:
|
||||
- Module name and purpose
|
||||
- Installation instructions
|
||||
- Components section (agents, workflows)
|
||||
- Quick start guide
|
||||
- Module structure diagram
|
||||
- Configuration section
|
||||
- Usage examples
|
||||
- Author information
|
||||
|
||||
---
|
||||
|
||||
## Optional Components
|
||||
|
||||
### Agents
|
||||
|
||||
Agents are AI personas with:
|
||||
- Metadata (id, name, title, icon, module)
|
||||
- Persona (role, identity, communication_style, principles)
|
||||
- Menu (trigger → workflow/exec mappings)
|
||||
|
||||
See: `agent-architecture.md` for design guidance.
|
||||
|
||||
---
|
||||
|
||||
### Workflows
|
||||
|
||||
Workflows are structured processes with:
|
||||
- workflow.md (entry point)
|
||||
- steps/ folder with step files
|
||||
- data/ folder with shared reference
|
||||
- templates/ folder if needed
|
||||
|
||||
---
|
||||
|
||||
### _module-installer/
|
||||
|
||||
Optional installation logic for:
|
||||
- Creating directories
|
||||
- Copying assets
|
||||
- IDE-specific configuration
|
||||
- Platform-specific setup
|
||||
|
||||
See: `module-installer-standards.md` for patterns.
|
||||
|
||||
---
|
||||
|
||||
## Module Type Decision Tree
|
||||
|
||||
```
|
||||
START: Creating a module
|
||||
│
|
||||
├─ Is this a brand new independent domain?
|
||||
│ └─ YES → Standalone Module
|
||||
│
|
||||
├─ Does this extend an existing module?
|
||||
│ └─ YES → Extension Module
|
||||
│
|
||||
└─ Does this affect all modules globally?
|
||||
└─ YES → Global Module (use sparingly)
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
---
|
||||
|
||||
## Naming Conventions
|
||||
|
||||
### Module Code
|
||||
|
||||
- **kebab-case** (e.g., `bmm`, `cis`, `bmgd`, `healthcare-ai`)
|
||||
- Short, memorable, descriptive
|
||||
- 2-20 characters
|
||||
- Lowercase letters, numbers, hyphens only
|
||||
|
||||
### Agent Files
|
||||
|
||||
- Format: `{role-name}.agent.yaml`
|
||||
- Example: `pm.agent.yaml`, `architect.agent.yaml`
|
||||
|
||||
### Workflow Folders
|
||||
|
||||
- Format: `{workflow-name}/`
|
||||
- Example: `prd/`, `create-architecture/`
|
||||
|
||||
---
|
||||
|
||||
## Module Dependencies
|
||||
|
||||
Modules can depend on:
|
||||
- **Core BMAD** — Always available
|
||||
- **Other modules** — Specify in module.yaml as `dependencies:`
|
||||
- **External tools** — Document in README, handle in installer
|
||||

# module.yaml Conventions
|
||||
|
||||
**Purpose:** Defines how module.yaml works, including variables, templates, and how they provide context to agents and workflows.
|
||||
|
||||
---
|
||||
|
||||
## Overview
|
||||
|
||||
`module.yaml` is the configuration file for a BMAD module. It:
|
||||
- Defines module metadata (code, name, description)
|
||||
- Collects user input via prompts during installation
|
||||
- Makes those inputs available to agents and workflows as variables
|
||||
- Specifies which module should be selected by default
|
||||
|
||||
---
|
||||
|
||||
## Frontmatter Fields
|
||||
|
||||
### Required Fields
|
||||
|
||||
```yaml
|
||||
code: {module-code} # kebab-case identifier
|
||||
name: "Display Name" # Human-readable name
|
||||
header: "Brief description" # One-line summary
|
||||
subheader: "Additional context" # More detail
|
||||
default_selected: false # Auto-select on install?
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
### `default_selected` Guidelines
|
||||
|
||||
| Module Type | default_selected | Example |
|
||||
|-------------|------------------|---------|
|
||||
| Core/Primary | `true` | BMM (agile software delivery) |
|
||||
| Specialized | `false` | CIS (creative innovation), BMGD (game dev) |
|
||||
| Experimental | `false` | New modules in development |
|
||||
|
||||
---
|
||||
|
||||
## Variables System
|
||||
|
||||
### Core Config Variables (Always Available)
|
||||
|
||||
These variables are automatically available to ALL modules:
|
||||
|
||||
```yaml
|
||||
# Variables from Core Config inserted:
|
||||
## user_name # User's name
|
||||
## communication_language # Preferred language
|
||||
## document_output_language # Output document language
|
||||
## output_folder # Default output location
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
No need to define these — they're injected automatically.
|
||||
|
||||
---
|
||||
|
||||
### Custom Variables
|
||||
|
||||
Define custom variables for user input:
|
||||
|
||||
```yaml
|
||||
variable_name:
|
||||
prompt: "Question to ask the user?"
|
||||
default: "{default_value}"
|
||||
result: "{template_for_final_value}"
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
**Example:**
|
||||
|
||||
```yaml
|
||||
project_name:
|
||||
prompt: "What is the title of your project?"
|
||||
default: "{directory_name}"
|
||||
result: "{value}"
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
### Variable Templates
|
||||
|
||||
In `prompt` and `result`, you can use templates:
|
||||
|
||||
| Template | Expands To |
|
||||
|----------|------------|
|
||||
| `{value}` | The user's input |
|
||||
| `{directory_name}` | Current directory name |
|
||||
| `{output_folder}` | Output folder from core config |
|
||||
| `{project-root}` | Project root path |
|
||||
| `{variable_name}` | Another variable's value |
|
||||
|
||||
---
|
||||
|
||||
## Variable Types
|
||||
|
||||
### 1. Simple Text Input
|
||||
|
||||
```yaml
|
||||
project_name:
|
||||
prompt: "What is the title of your project?"
|
||||
default: "{directory_name}"
|
||||
result: "{value}"
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
---
|
||||
|
||||
### 2. Boolean/Flag
|
||||
|
||||
```yaml
|
||||
enable_feature:
|
||||
prompt: "Enable this feature?"
|
||||
default: false
|
||||
result: "{value}"
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
---
|
||||
|
||||
### 3. Single Select
|
||||
|
||||
```yaml
|
||||
skill_level:
|
||||
prompt: "What is your experience level?"
|
||||
default: "intermediate"
|
||||
result: "{value}"
|
||||
single-select:
|
||||
- value: "beginner"
|
||||
label: "Beginner - Explains concepts clearly"
|
||||
- value: "intermediate"
|
||||
label: "Intermediate - Balanced approach"
|
||||
- value: "expert"
|
||||
label: "Expert - Direct and technical"
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
---
|
||||
|
||||
### 4. Multi Select
|
||||
|
||||
```yaml
|
||||
platforms:
|
||||
prompt: "Which platforms do you need?"
|
||||
default: ["unity", "unreal"]
|
||||
result: "{value}"
|
||||
multi-select:
|
||||
- value: "unity"
|
||||
label: "Unity"
|
||||
- value: "unreal"
|
||||
label: "Unreal Engine"
|
||||
- value: "godot"
|
||||
label: "Godot"
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
---
|
||||
|
||||
### 5. Multi-Line Prompt
|
||||
|
||||
```yaml
|
||||
complex_variable:
|
||||
prompt:
|
||||
- "First question?"
|
||||
- "Second context?"
|
||||
- "Third detail?"
|
||||
default: "default_value"
|
||||
result: "{value}"
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
---
|
||||
|
||||
### 6. Required Variable
|
||||
|
||||
```yaml
|
||||
critical_variable:
|
||||
prompt: "Required information:"
|
||||
required: true
|
||||
result: "{value}"
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
---
|
||||
|
||||
### 7. Path Variable
|
||||
|
||||
```yaml
|
||||
artifacts_folder:
|
||||
prompt: "Where should artifacts be stored?"
|
||||
default: "{output_folder}/artifacts"
|
||||
result: "{project-root}/{value}"
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
---
|
||||
|
||||
## Variable Inheritance / Aliasing
|
||||
|
||||
Create an alias for another variable:
|
||||
|
||||
```yaml
|
||||
primary_artifacts:
|
||||
prompt: "Where should primary artifacts be stored?"
|
||||
default: "{output_folder}/artifacts"
|
||||
result: "{project-root}/{value}"
|
||||
|
||||
# Alias for workflow compatibility
|
||||
sprint_artifacts:
|
||||
inherit: "primary_artifacts"
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
Now `sprint_artifacts` and `primary_artifacts` reference the same value.
|
||||
|
||||
---
|
||||
|
||||
## How Variables Become Available
|
||||
|
||||
### To Agents
|
||||
|
||||
After installation, variables are available in agent frontmatter/context:
|
||||
|
||||
```yaml
|
||||
# In agent.agent.yaml or workflow execution
|
||||
{variable_name} # Expands to the user's configured value
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
**Example:** If the user configured `project_name: "MyApp"`, agents can reference `{project_name}` and it will expand to `"MyApp"`.
|
||||
|
||||
### To Workflows
|
||||
|
||||
Workflows can reference module variables in their step files:
|
||||
|
||||
```yaml
|
||||
---
|
||||
outputFile: '{implementation_artifacts}/my-output.md'
|
||||
---
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
This expands the `implementation_artifacts` variable from module.yaml.
|
||||
|
||||
---
|
||||
|
||||
## Real-World Examples
|
||||
|
||||
### BMM (BMad Method) — Complex Configuration
|
||||
|
||||
```yaml
|
||||
code: bmm
|
||||
name: "BMM: BMad Method Agile-AI Driven-Development"
|
||||
header: "BMad Method™: Breakthrough Method of Agile-Ai Driven-Dev"
|
||||
subheader: "Agent and Workflow Configuration for this module"
|
||||
default_selected: true
|
||||
|
||||
# Variables from Core Config inserted:
|
||||
## user_name
|
||||
## communication_language
|
||||
## document_output_language
|
||||
## output_folder
|
||||
|

### CIS (Creative Innovation Suite) — Minimal Configuration
|
||||
|
||||
```yaml
|
||||
code: cis
|
||||
name: "CIS: Creative Innovation Suite"
|
||||
header: "Creative Innovation Suite (CIS) Module"
|
||||
subheader: "No custom configuration - uses Core settings only"
|
||||
default_selected: false
|
||||
|
||||
# Variables from Core Config inserted:
|
||||
## user_name
|
||||
## communication_language
|
||||
## document_output_language
|
||||
## output_folder
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
Some modules don't need custom variables — core config is enough!

### BMGD (Game Development) — Multi-Select Example
|
||||
|
||||
```yaml
|
||||
code: bmgd
|
||||
name: "BMGD: BMad Game Development"
|
||||
header: "BMad Game Development Module"
|
||||
subheader: "Configure game development settings"
|

default_selected: false
|
||||
|
||||
project_name:
|
||||
prompt: "What is the name of your game project?"
|
||||
default: "{directory_name}"
|
||||
result: "{value}"
|
||||
|
||||
primary_platform:
|
||||
prompt: "Which game engine do you use?"
|

|
||||
## Best Practices
|
||||
|
||||
### DO:
|
||||
- Keep prompts clear and concise
|
||||
- Provide sensible defaults
|
||||
- Use `result: "{project-root}/{value}"` for paths
|
||||
- Use single/multi-select for structured choices
|
||||
- Group related variables logically
|
||||
|
||||
### DON'T:
|
||||
- Overwhelm users with too many questions
|
||||
- Ask for information that could be inferred
|
||||
- Use technical jargon in prompts
|
||||
- Create variables that are never used
|
||||
|
||||
---
|
||||
|
||||
## Variable Naming
|
||||
|
||||
- **kebab-case** (e.g., `planning_artifacts`, `user_skill_level`)
|
||||
- Descriptive but concise
|
||||
- Avoid conflicts with core variables
|
||||
|
||||

|
||||
|
||||
## Testing Your module.yaml
|
||||
|
||||
After creating module.yaml, test it:
|
||||
|
||||
1. Run `bmad install` in a test project
|
||||
2. Verify prompts appear correctly
|
||||
3. Check that variables expand in agents/workflows
|
||||
4. Test default values
|
||||
5. Validate path templates resolve correctly
