Major Enhancements:

- Installation path is now fully configurable, allowing users to specify custom installation directories during setup
  - Default installation location changed to .bmad (hidden directory) for cleaner project root organization

    Web Bundle Improvements:

    - All web bundles (single agent and team) now include party mode support for multi-agent collaboration!
    - Advanced elicitation capabilities integrated into standalone agents
    - All bundles enhanced with party mode agent manifests
    - Added default-party.csv files to bmm, bmgd, and cis module teams
    - The default party file is what will be used with single agent bundles. teams can customize for different party configurations before web bundling through a setting in the team yaml file
    - New web bundle outputs for all agents (analyst, architect, dev, pm, sm, tea, tech-writer, ux-designer, game-*, creative-squad)

    Phase 4 Workflow Updates (In Progress):

    - Initiated shift to separate phase 4 implementation artifacts from documentation
        - Phase 4 implementation artifacts (stories, code review, sprint plan, context files) will move to dedicated location outside docs folder
        - Installer questions and configuration added for artifact path selection
        - Updated workflow.yaml files for code-review, sprint-planning, story-context, epic-tech-context, and retrospective workflows to support this, but still might require some udpates

    Additional Changes:

    - New agent and action command header models for standardization
    - Enhanced web-bundle-activation-steps fragment
    - Updated web-bundler.js to support new structure
    - VS Code settings updated for new .bmad directory
    - Party mode instructions and workflow enhanced for better orchestration

   IDE Installer Updates:

    - Show version number of installer in cli
    - improved Installer UX
    - Gemini TOML Improved to have clear loading instructions with @ commands
    - All tools agent launcher mds improved to use a central file template critical indication isntead of hardcoding in 2 different locations.

# Architecture Document Validation Checklist
**Purpose**: Validate the architecture document itself is complete, implementable, and provides clear guidance for AI agents.
**Note**: This checklist validates the ARCHITECTURE DOCUMENT only. For cross-workflow validation (PRD → Architecture → Stories alignment), use the solutioning-gate-check workflow.
---
## 1. Decision Completeness
### All Decisions Made
- [ ] Every critical decision category has been resolved

- [ ] Compatible versions selected (e.g., Node.js version supports chosen packages)
- [ ] Verification dates noted for version checks
### Version Verification Process
- [ ] WebSearch used during workflow to verify current versions
- [ ] No hardcoded versions from decision catalog trusted without verification
- [ ] LTS vs. latest versions considered and documented
- [ ] Breaking changes between versions noted if relevant
---
## 3. Starter Template Integration (if applicable)
### Template Selection
- [ ] Starter template chosen (or "from scratch" decision documented)
- [ ] Project initialization command documented with exact flags
- [ ] Starter template version is current and specified
- [ ] Command search term provided for verification
### Starter-Provided Decisions
- [ ] Decisions provided by starter marked as "PROVIDED BY STARTER"
- [ ] List of what starter provides is complete
- [ ] Remaining decisions (not covered by starter) clearly identified
- [ ] No duplicate decisions that starter already makes
---
## 4. Novel Pattern Design (if applicable)
### Pattern Detection
- [ ] All unique/novel concepts from PRD identified
- [ ] Patterns that don't have standard solutions documented

---
## 5. Implementation Patterns
### Pattern Categories Coverage
- [ ] **Naming Patterns**: API routes, database tables, components, files
- [ ] **Structure Patterns**: Test organization, component organization, shared utilities
- [ ] **Format Patterns**: API responses, error formats, date handling
- [ ] **Communication Patterns**: Events, state updates, inter-component messaging
- [ ] **Lifecycle Patterns**: Loading states, error recovery, retry logic
- [ ] **Location Patterns**: URL structure, asset organization, config placement
- [ ] **Consistency Patterns**: UI date formats, logging, user-facing errors
### Pattern Quality
- [ ] Each pattern has concrete examples
- [ ] Conventions are unambiguous (agents can't interpret differently)
- [ ] Patterns cover all technologies in the stack
- [ ] No gaps where agents would have to guess
- [ ] Implementation patterns don't conflict with each other
---
## 6. Technology Compatibility
### Stack Coherence
