## Key Changes ### 1. Epic Creation Workflow Enhancements - Added user-value focused epic structure principles (NO technical layer breakdown) - Implemented multi-mode detection: CONTINUE, REPLACE, or UPDATE existing epics - Added comprehensive anti-pattern examples showing wrong vs right epic breakdown - Epics now created AFTER architecture for technically-informed story breakdown - Added checkpoint protocol for interactive workflow progression ### 2. Removed Deprecated Solutioning Gate Check - Deleted entire solutioning-gate-check workflow (682 lines) - Replaced by new implementation-readiness workflow - Cleaner separation of concerns in solutioning phase ### 3. PRD Template Simplification - Removed hardcoded "Implementation Planning", "References", and "Next Steps" sections - PRD now focuses purely on requirements, not workflow orchestration - Epics/stories created as separate step after architecture ### 4. Documentation Overhaul (15+ docs updated) - Updated quick-start guide with v6 workflow sequence - Clarified that epics are created AFTER architecture, not during PRD - Updated solutioning docs to reflect implementation-readiness pattern - Improved agents-guide, brownfield-guide, enterprise docs - Enhanced glossary, FAQ, and workflow reference documentation ### 5. Workflow Path Adjustments - All 4 paths updated (enterprise/method × brownfield/greenfield) - Version bumps across BMGD, BMM, and CIS workflow YAMLs - Minor instruction file updates for consistency ### Files Changed - 65 files total: 468 insertions, 978 deletions (net reduction of 510 lines) - 4 files deleted (entire solutioning-gate-check workflow) - 1 new directory added (implementation-readiness placeholder)
