The agent build caching never worked - BUILD-META comments were
never written to output files, so every build acted like --force.
Since building all 29 agents takes ~300ms, caching provided no
meaningful benefit. Removed ~190 lines of dead code including
checkIfNeedsRebuild, checkBuildStatus, buildMetadataComment,
and the --force flag.

## Major Features Added
- **Step-file workflow architecture**: Transform monolithic workflows into granular step files for improved LLM adherence and consistency
- **Multi-menu handler system**: New `handler-multi.xml` enables grouped menu items with fuzzy matching
- **Workflow compliance checker**: Added automated compliance validation for all workflows
- **Create/edit agent workflows**: New structured workflows for agent creation and editing
## Workflow Enhancements
- **Create-workflow**: Expanded from 6 to 14 detailed steps covering tools, design, compliance
- **Granular step execution**: Each workflow step now has dedicated files for focused execution
- **New documentation**: Added CSV data standards, intent vs prescriptive spectrum, and common tools reference
## Complete Migration Status
- **4 workflows fully migrated**: `create-agent`, `edit-agent`, `create-workflow`, and `edit-workflow` now use the new granular step-file architecture
- **Legacy transformation**: `edit-workflow` includes built-in capability to transform legacy single-file workflows into the new improved granular format
- **Future cleanup**: Legacy versions will be removed in a future commit after validation
## Schema Updates
- **Multi-menu support**: Updated agent schema to support `triggers` array for grouped menu items
- **Legacy compatibility**: Maintains backward compatibility with single `trigger` field
- **Discussion enhancements**: Added conversational_knowledge recommendation for discussion agents
## File Structure Changes
- Added: `create-agent/`, `edit-agent/`, `edit-workflow/`, `workflow-compliance-check/` workflows
- Added: Documentation standards and CSV reference files
- Refactored: `create-workflow/steps/` with detailed granular step files
## Handler Improvements
- Enhanced `handler-exec.xml` with clearer execution instructions
- Improved data passing context for executed files
- Better error handling and user guidance
This architectural change significantly improves workflow execution consistency across all LLM models by breaking complex processes into manageable, focused steps. The edit-workflow transformation tool ensures smooth migration of existing workflows to the new format.
- Add merging logic for customizeYaml.prompts and customizeYaml.memories in loadAndMergeAgent()
- Implement buildMemoriesXml() method to output memories XML section
- Update buildPromptsXml() to use <content> wrapper instead of CDATA for better compatibility
- Integrate memories output into convertToXml() between persona and prompts sections
Changes:
1. Line 123-131: Added prompts and memories append logic in loadAndMergeAgent()
2. Line 215-218: Added memories XML output in convertToXml()
3. Line 286-301: New buildMemoriesXml() method
4. Line 312-315: Updated prompts to use <content> wrapper for consistency
This allows users to customize agents via bmad/_cfg/agents/*.customize.yaml with:
- prompts: Array of {id, content} objects for action handlers
- memories: Array of strings for persistent agent memories
## Summary
- Add ide-only and web-only boolean fields to agent menu schema
- Filter menu items based on build target (web bundle vs local IDE)
- Update BMM agent definitions with platform restrictions and improved descriptions
- Update frame-expert agent icon to 📐 and add webskip flag
## Changes
### Schema & Bundler Updates
- tools/schema/agent.js: Add ide-only and web-only optional boolean fields
- tools/cli/lib/yaml-xml-builder.js: Filter ide-only items from web bundles
- tools/cli/lib/xml-handler.js: Pass forWebBundle flag through build chain
### Agent Updates
- frame-expert: Change icon to 📐, add webskip flag, improve principle formatting
- pm: Mark workflow-init and correct-course as ide-only, advanced-elicitation as web-only
- ux-designer: Rename trigger to create-ux-design, mark advanced-elicitation as web-only
- sm: Rename triggers for consistency (story-context → create-story-context)
- analyst: Add research workflow after brainstorm, mark advanced-elicitation as web-only
- architect: Remove document field from validate-architecture, add web-only flag
- dev: Update persona and critical actions for clarity
- tech-writer: Add party-mode workflow, mark advanced-elicitation as web-only
- tea: Mark advanced-elicitation as web-only
- All agents: Standardize party-mode description
This enables platform-specific functionality where some commands only make sense
in IDE environments (workflow-init) or web interfaces (advanced-elicitation).
This commit extracts game development functionality from BMM into a standalone
BMGD (BMad Game Development) module and implements workflow vendoring to enable
module independence.
BMGD Module Creation:
- Moved agents: game-designer, game-dev, game-architect from BMM to BMGD
- Moved team config: team-gamedev
- Created new Game Dev Scrum Master agent using workflow vendoring pattern
- Reorganized workflows into industry-standard game dev phases:
* Phase 1 (Preproduction): brainstorm-game, game-brief
* Phase 2 (Design): gdd, narrative
* Phase 3 (Technical): game-architecture
* Phase 4 (Production): vendored from BMM workflows
- Updated all module metadata and config_source references
Workflow Vendoring Feature:
- Enables modules to copy workflows from other modules during installation
- Build-time process that updates config_source in vendored workflows
- New agent YAML attribute: workflow-install (build-time metadata)
- Final compiled agents use workflow-install value for workflow attribute
- Implementation in module manager: vendorCrossModuleWorkflows()
- Allows standalone module installation without forced dependencies
Technical Changes:
- tools/cli/lib/yaml-xml-builder.js: Use workflow-install for workflow attribute
- tools/cli/installers/lib/modules/manager.js: Add vendoring functions
- tools/schema/agent.js: Add workflow-install to menu item schema
- Updated 3 documentation files with workflow vendoring details
BMM Workflow Updates:
- workflow-status/init: Added game detection checkpoint
- workflow-status/paths/game-design.yaml: Redirect to BMGD module
- prd/instructions.md: Route game projects to BMGD
- research/instructions-market.md: Reference BMGD for game development
Documentation:
- Created comprehensive BMGD module README
- Added workflow vendoring documentation
- Updated BMB agent creation and module creation guides
