A Claude Code plugin that transforms Claude into a complete agile development environment with specialized agents, structured workflows, and intelligent context management.

Deprecation Notice

The upstream BMAD repositories are migrating from their custom workflow.yaml format to Claude Code's native SKILL.md format. Once all upstream modules complete this migration, this plugin's sync and generation pipeline will become redundant — the upstream repos will ship Claude Code-compatible skills directly.

At that point this plugin will be deprecated in favor of installing upstream BMAD packages directly. Until then, this plugin remains the only way to get all 5 BMAD modules aggregated into a single installable Claude Code plugin with path rewrites, version tracking, and plugin-only additions.

Features

• 9 Specialized Agents: Business Analyst, Product Manager, UX Designer, System Architect, Scrum Master, Developer, QA Engineer, Tech Writer, and Solo Dev
• 26 Guided Workflows: From brainstorming to implementation
• 4 Development Phases: Analysis, Planning, Solutioning, Implementation
• Progressive Disclosure: Step-by-step workflow execution
• State Tracking: Resume workflows across sessions
