Supercharge Claude Code with advanced prompting, agent orchestration, and structured critique workflows for brainstorming, specification authoring, document management, and adversarial code review.
Analyzes current state and user query to answer BMad questions or recommend the next skill(s) to use. Use when user asks for help, bmad help, what to do next, or what to start with in BMad.
Facilitate a brainstorming session using diverse creative techniques. Use when the user says 'help me brainstorm' or 'help me ideate'.
Authors and updates customization overrides for installed BMad skills. Use when the user says 'customize bmad', 'override a skill', 'change agent behavior', or 'customize a workflow'.
Distill any intent input into the SPEC kernel + companions — the canonical, preservation-validated machine contract for downstream work. Use when the user says "create a spec", "distill this into a spec", "validate this spec", or "update the spec".
Orchestrates lively group discussions between installed BMAD agents or custom personas, and helps author custom parties. Use when the user requests party mode, a roundtable, or multiple agent perspectives — or wants to create/configure a party, define personas, or build an AI focus-group panel.

npx bmad-method install
Want the newest prerelease build? Use
npx bmad-method@next install. Expect higher churn than the default install.
Follow the installer prompts, then open your AI IDE (Claude Code, Cursor, etc.) in your project folder.
Non-Interactive Installation (for CI/CD):
npx bmad-method install --directory /path/to/project --modules bmm --tools claude-code --yes
Override any module config option with --set <module>.<key>=<value> (repeatable). Run --list-options [module] to see locally-known official keys (built-in modules plus any external officials cached on this machine):
npx bmad-method install --yes \
--modules bmm --tools claude-code \
--set bmm.project_knowledge=research \
--set bmm.user_skill_level=expert
Not sure what to do? Ask
bmad-help— it tells you exactly what's next and what's optional. You can also ask questions likebmad-help I just finished the architecture, what do I do next?
BMad Method extends with official modules for specialized domains. Available during installation or anytime after.
| Module | Purpose |
|---|---|
| BMad Method (BMM) | Core framework with 34+ workflows |
| BMad Builder (BMB) | Create custom BMad agents and workflows |
| Test Architect (TEA) | Risk-based test strategy and automation |
| Game Dev Studio (BMGD) | Game development workflows (Unity, Unreal, Godot) |
| Creative Intelligence Suite (CIS) | Innovation, brainstorming, design thinking |
Sample plugins demonstrating how to build BMad agents and skills. Includes a code coach, creative muse, diagram reviewer, dream weaver, sentinel, and excalidraw generator.

A Claude Code planning & orchestration harness for the BMAD Method by the BMAD Code Organization (https://github.com/bmad-code-org/BMAD-METHOD). Facilitates the BMAD planning lifecycle — brainstorm, research, product brief, SPEC, PRD, UX, architecture, epics & stories — then orchestrates conflict-free, dependency-ordered PARALLEL workstreams and hands ready-for-dev stories off to your dev tools. It plans and orchestrates; it never writes the code.
