BMAD Method — Project Instructions

Project Configuration

Project: Entropyk
User: Sepehr
Communication Language: French
Document Output Language: English
User Skill Level: intermediate
Output Folder: {project-root}/_bmad-output
Planning Artifacts: {project-root}/_bmad-output/planning-artifacts
Implementation Artifacts: {project-root}/_bmad-output/implementation-artifacts
Project Knowledge: {project-root}/docs

Agent definitions: _bmad/bmm/agents/ (BMM module) and _bmad/core/agents/ (core)
Workflow definitions: _bmad/bmm/workflows/ (organized by phase)
Core tasks: _bmad/core/tasks/ (help, editorial review, indexing, sharding, adversarial review)
Core workflows: _bmad/core/workflows/ (brainstorming, party-mode, advanced-elicitation)
Workflow engine: _bmad/core/tasks/workflow.xml (executes YAML-based workflows)
Module configuration: _bmad/bmm/config.yaml
Core configuration: _bmad/core/config.yaml
Agent manifest: _bmad/_config/agent-manifest.csv
Workflow manifest: _bmad/_config/workflow-manifest.csv
Help manifest: _bmad/_config/bmad-help.csv
Agent memory: _bmad/_memory/

Always load _bmad/bmm/config.yaml before any agent activation or workflow execution
Store all config fields as session variables: {user_name}, {communication_language}, {output_folder}, {planning_artifacts}, {implementation_artifacts}, {project_knowledge}
MD-based workflows execute directly — load and follow the .md file
YAML-based workflows require the workflow engine — load workflow.xml first, then pass the .yaml config
Follow step-based workflow execution: load steps JIT, never multiple at once
Save outputs after EACH step when using the workflow engine
The {project-root} variable resolves to the workspace root at runtime
