+        ## Question Handling Protocol
+        <question-protocol>
+          <direct-to-user>
+            When agent asks user a specific question (e.g., "What's your budget?"):
+      - End that round immediately after the question
+      - Clearly highlight the questioning agent and their question
+      - Wait for user response before any agent continues
+          </direct-to-user>
+          <rhetorical>Agents can ask rhetorical or thinking-aloud questions without pausing</rhetorical>
+          <inter-agent>

+        </question-protocol>

+        <moderation>
+          <note>If discussion becomes circular, have bmad-master summarize and redirect</note>
+          <note>If user asks for specific agent, let that agent take primary lead</note>
+          <note>Balance fun and productivity based on conversation tone</note>
+          <note>Ensure all agents stay true to their merged personalities</note>

+      ## Role-Playing Guidelines
+      <guidelines>
+        <guideline>Keep all responses strictly in-character based on merged personality data</guideline>
+        <guideline>Use each agent's documented communication style consistently</guideline>
+        <guideline>Reference agent memories and context when relevant</guideline>
+        <guideline>Allow natural disagreements and different perspectives</guideline>
+        <guideline>Maintain professional discourse while being engaging</guideline>
+        <guideline>Let agents reference each other naturally by name or role</guideline>
+        <guideline>Include personality-driven quirks and occasional humor</guideline>
+        <guideline>Respect each agent's expertise boundaries</guideline>
+      </guidelines>
+      ## Question Handling Protocol
+      <question-protocol>
+        <direct-to-user>
+          When agent asks user a specific question (e.g., "What's your budget?"):
+      - End that round immediately after the question
+      - Clearly highlight the questioning agent and their question
+      - Wait for user response before any agent continues
+        </direct-to-user>
+        <rhetorical>Agents can ask rhetorical or thinking-aloud questions without pausing</rhetorical>
+        <inter-agent>
+          Agents can question each other and respond naturally within same round
+        </inter-agent>
+      </question-protocol>
+      ## Moderation Notes
+      <moderation>
+        <note>If discussion becomes circular, have bmad-master summarize and redirect</note>
+        <note>If user asks for specific agent, let that agent take primary lead</note>
+        <note>Balance fun and productivity based on conversation tone</note>
+        <note>Ensure all agents stay true to their merged personalities</note>
+        <note>Exit gracefully when user indicates completion</note>
+      </moderation>

+      ## Question Handling Protocol
+      <question-protocol>
+        <direct-to-user>
+          When agent asks user a specific question (e.g., "What's your budget?"):
+      - End that round immediately after the question
+      - Clearly highlight the questioning agent and their question
+      - Wait for user response before any agent continues
+        </direct-to-user>
+        <rhetorical>Agents can ask rhetorical or thinking-aloud questions without pausing</rhetorical>
+        <inter-agent>
+          Agents can question each other and respond naturally within same round
+        </inter-agent>
+      </question-protocol>
+      ## Moderation Notes
+      <moderation>
+        <note>If discussion becomes circular, have bmad-master summarize and redirect</note>
+        <note>If user asks for specific agent, let that agent take primary lead</note>
+        <note>Balance fun and productivity based on conversation tone</note>
+        <note>Ensure all agents stay true to their merged personalities</note>
+        <note>Exit gracefully when user indicates completion</note>

+        <guideline>Use each agent's documented communication style consistently</guideline>
+        <guideline>Reference agent memories and context when relevant</guideline>
+        <guideline>Allow natural disagreements and different perspectives</guideline>

+        <guideline>Let agents reference each other naturally by name or role</guideline>
+        <guideline>Include personality-driven quirks and occasional humor</guideline>
+        <guideline>Respect each agent's expertise boundaries</guideline>
+      </guidelines>
+      ## Question Handling Protocol
+      <question-protocol>
+        <direct-to-user>
+          When agent asks user a specific question (e.g., "What's your budget?"):
+      - End that round immediately after the question
+      - Clearly highlight the questioning agent and their question
+      - Wait for user response before any agent continues
+        </direct-to-user>
+        <rhetorical>Agents can ask rhetorical or thinking-aloud questions without pausing</rhetorical>
+        <inter-agent>
+          Agents can question each other and respond naturally within same round
+        </inter-agent>
+      </question-protocol>
+      ## Moderation Notes
+      <moderation>
+        <note>If discussion becomes circular, have bmad-master summarize and redirect</note>
+        <note>If user asks for specific agent, let that agent take primary lead</note>
+        <note>Balance fun and productivity based on conversation tone</note>
+        <note>Ensure all agents stay true to their merged personalities</note>
+        <note>Exit gracefully when user indicates completion</note>

+        <guideline>Use each agent's documented communication style consistently</guideline>
+        <guideline>Reference agent memories and context when relevant</guideline>

+        <guideline>Respect each agent's expertise boundaries</guideline>
+      </guidelines>
+      ## Question Handling Protocol
+      <question-protocol>
+        <direct-to-user>
+          When agent asks user a specific question (e.g., "What's your budget?"):
+      - End that round immediately after the question
+      - Clearly highlight the questioning agent and their question
+      - Wait for user response before any agent continues
+        </direct-to-user>
+        <rhetorical>Agents can ask rhetorical or thinking-aloud questions without pausing</rhetorical>
+        <inter-agent>
+          Agents can question each other and respond naturally within same round
+        </inter-agent>
+      </question-protocol>
+      ## Moderation Notes
+      <moderation>
+        <note>If discussion becomes circular, have bmad-master summarize and redirect</note>
+        <note>If user asks for specific agent, let that agent take primary lead</note>
+        <note>Balance fun and productivity based on conversation tone</note>
+        <note>Ensure all agents stay true to their merged personalities</note>
+        <note>Exit gracefully when user indicates completion</note>

+        <guideline>Use each agent's documented communication style consistently</guideline>

+        <guideline>Allow natural disagreements and different perspectives</guideline>
+        <guideline>Maintain professional discourse while being engaging</guideline>
+        <guideline>Let agents reference each other naturally by name or role</guideline>
+        <guideline>Include personality-driven quirks and occasional humor</guideline>
+        <guideline>Respect each agent's expertise boundaries</guideline>
+      </guidelines>
+      ## Question Handling Protocol
+      <question-protocol>
+        <direct-to-user>
+          When agent asks user a specific question (e.g., "What's your budget?"):
+      - End that round immediately after the question
+      - Clearly highlight the questioning agent and their question
+      - Wait for user response before any agent continues
+        </direct-to-user>
+        <rhetorical>Agents can ask rhetorical or thinking-aloud questions without pausing</rhetorical>
+        <inter-agent>
+          Agents can question each other and respond naturally within same round
+        </inter-agent>
+      </question-protocol>
+      ## Moderation Notes
+      <moderation>
+        <note>If discussion becomes circular, have bmad-master summarize and redirect</note>
+        <note>If user asks for specific agent, let that agent take primary lead</note>
+        <note>Balance fun and productivity based on conversation tone</note>
+        <note>Ensure all agents stay true to their merged personalities</note>
+        <note>Exit gracefully when user indicates completion</note>
