+
+---
+
+## Workflow Access
+
+### How to Run Workflows
+
+**From IDE (Claude Code, Cursor, Windsurf):**
+
+1. Load the agent using agent reference (e.g., type `@pm` in Claude Code)
+2. Wait for agent menu to appear in chat
+3. Type the workflow trigger with `*` prefix (e.g., `*create-prd`)
+4. Follow the workflow prompts
+
+**Agent Menu Structure:**
+Each agent displays their available workflows when loaded. Look for:
+
+- `*` prefix indicates workflow trigger
+- Grouped by category or phase
+- START HERE indicators for recommended entry points
+
+### Universal Workflows
+
+Some workflows are available to multiple agents:
+
+| Workflow           | Agents                    | Purpose                                     |
+| ------------------ | ------------------------- | ------------------------------------------- |
+| `workflow-status`  | ALL agents                | Check current state and get recommendations |
+| `workflow-init`    | PM, Analyst               | Initialize workflow tracking                |
+| `correct-course`   | PM, Architect, SM         | Change management during implementation     |
+| `document-project` | Analyst, Technical Writer | Brownfield documentation                    |
+
+### Validation Actions
+
+Many workflows have optional validation workflows that perform independent review:
+
+| Validation              | Agent       | Validates                        |
+| ----------------------- | ----------- | -------------------------------- |
+| `validate-prd`          | PM          | PRD completeness (FRs/NFRs only) |
+| `validate-tech-spec`    | PM          | Technical specification quality  |
+| `validate-architecture` | Architect   | Architecture document            |
+| `validate-design`       | UX Designer | UX specification and artifacts   |
+| `validate-create-story` | SM          | Story draft                      |
+
+**When to use validation:**
+
+- Before phase transitions
+- For critical documents
+- When learning XMC
+- For high-stakes projects
+
+---
+
+## Agent Customization
+
+You can customize any agent's personality without modifying core agent files.
+
+### Location
+
+**Customization Directory:** `{project-root}/{xiaoma_folder}/_cfg/agents/`
+
+**Naming Convention:** `{module}-{agent-name}.customize.yaml`
+
+**Examples:**
+
+```
+{xiaoma_folder}/_cfg/agents/
+├── xmc-pm.customize.yaml
+├── xmc-dev.customize.yaml
+├── cis-storyteller.customize.yaml
+└── xmb-xiaoma-builder.customize.yaml
+```
+
+### Override Structure
+
+**File Format:**
+
+```yaml
+agent:
+  persona:
+    displayName: 'Custom Name' # Optional: Override display name
+    communicationStyle: 'Custom style description' # Optional: Override style
+    principles: # Optional: Add or replace principles
+      - 'Custom principle for this project'
+      - 'Another project-specific guideline'
+```
+
+### Override Behavior
+
+**Precedence:** Customization > Manifest
+
+**Merge Rules:**
+
+- If field specified in customization, it replaces manifest value
+- If field NOT specified, manifest value used
+- Additional fields are added to agent personality
+- Changes apply immediately when agent loaded
+
+### Use Cases
+
+**Adjust Formality:**
+
+```yaml
+agent:
+  persona:
+    communicationStyle: 'Formal and corporate-focused. Uses business terminology. Structured responses with executive summaries.'
+```
+
+**Add Domain Expertise:**
+
+```yaml
+agent:
+  persona:
+    identity: |
+      Expert Product Manager with 15 years experience in healthcare SaaS.
+      Deep understanding of HIPAA compliance, EHR integrations, and clinical workflows.
+      Specializes in balancing regulatory requirements with user experience.
+```
+
+**Modify Principles:**
+
+```yaml
+agent:
+  persona:
+    principles:
+      - 'HIPAA compliance is non-negotiable'
+      - 'Prioritize patient safety over feature velocity'
+      - 'Every feature must have clinical validation'
+```
+
+**Change Personality:**
+
+```yaml
+agent:
+  persona:
+    displayName: 'Alex' # Change from default "Amelia"
+    communicationStyle: 'Casual and friendly. Uses emojis. Explains technical concepts in simple terms.'
+```
+
+### Party Mode Integration
+
+Customizations automatically apply in party mode:
+
+1. Party mode reads manifest
+2. Checks for customization files
+3. Merges customizations with manifest
+4. Agents respond with customized personalities
+
+**Example:**
+
+```
+You customize PM with healthcare expertise.
+In party mode, PM now brings healthcare knowledge to discussions.
+Other agents collaborate with PM's specialized perspective.
+```
+
+### Applying Customizations
+
+**IMPORTANT:** Customizations don't take effect until you rebuild the agents.
+
+**Complete Process:**
+
+**Step 1: Create/Modify Customization File**
+
+```bash
+# Create customization file at:
+# {project-root}/{xiaoma_folder}/_cfg/agents/{module}-{agent-name}.customize.yaml
+
+# Example: {xiaoma_folder}/_cfg/agents/xmc-pm.customize.yaml
+```
+
+**Step 2: Regenerate Agent Manifest**
+
+After modifying customization files, you must regenerate the agent manifest and rebuild agents:
+
+```bash
+# Run the installer to apply customizations
+npx xiaoma-cli install
+
+# The installer will:
+# 1. Read all customization files
+# 2. Regenerate agent-manifest.csv with merged data
+# 3. Rebuild agent .md files with customizations applied
+```
+
+**Step 3: Verify Changes**
+
+Load the customized agent and verify the changes are reflected in its behavior and responses.
+
+**Why This is Required:**
+
+- Customization files are just configuration - they don't change agents directly
+- The agent manifest must be regenerated to merge customizations
+- Agent .md files must be rebuilt with the merged data
+- Party mode and all workflows load agents from the rebuilt files
+
+### Best Practices
+
+1. **Keep it project-specific:** Customize for your domain, not general changes
+2. **Don't break character:** Keep customizations aligned with agent's core role
+3. **Test in party mode:** See how customizations interact with other agents
+4. **Document why:** Add comments explaining customization purpose
+5. **Share with team:** Customizations survive updates, can be version controlled
+6. **Rebuild after changes:** Always run installer after modifying customization files
+
+---
+
+## Best Practices
+
+### Agent Selection
+
+**1. Start with workflow-status**
+
+- When unsure where you are, load any agent and run `*workflow-status`
+- Agent will analyze current project state and recommend next steps
+- Works across all phases and all agents
+
+**2. Match phase to agent**
+
+- **Phase 1 (Analysis):** Analyst
+- **Phase 2 (Planning):** PM, UX Designer
+- **Phase 3 (Solutioning):** Architect
+- **Phase 4 (Implementation):** SM, DEV
+- **Testing:** TEA (all phases)
+- **Documentation:** Technical Writer (all phases)
+
+**3. Use specialists**
+
+- **Testing:** TEA for comprehensive quality strategy
+- **Documentation:** Technical Writer for technical writing
+- **UX:** UX Designer for user-centered design
+
+**4. Try party mode for:**
+
+- Strategic decisions with trade-offs
+- Creative brainstorming sessions
+- Cross-functional alignment
+- Complex problem solving
+
+### Working with Agents
+
+**1. Trust their expertise**
+
+- Agents embody decades of simulated experience
+- Their questions uncover critical issues
+- Their recommendations are data-informed
+- Their warnings prevent costly mistakes
+
+**2. Answer their questions**
+
+- Agents ask for important reasons
+- Incomplete answers lead to assumptions
+- Detailed responses yield better outcomes
+- "I don't know" is a valid answer
+
+**3. Follow workflows**
+
+- Structured processes prevent missed steps
+- Workflows encode best practices
+- Sequential workflows build on each other
+- Validation workflows catch errors early
+
+**4. Customize when needed**
+
+- Adjust agent personalities for your project
+- Add domain-specific expertise
+- Modify communication style for team preferences
+- Keep customizations project-specific
+
+### Common Workflows Patterns
+
+**Starting a New Project (Greenfield):**
+
+```
+1. PM or Analyst: *workflow-init
+2. Analyst: *brainstorm-project or *product-brief (optional)
+3. PM: *create-prd (Level 2-4) or *tech-spec (Level 0-1)
+4. Architect: *create-architecture (Level 3-4 only)
+5. PM: *create-epics-and-stories (after architecture)
+6. SM: *sprint-planning
+```
+
+**Starting with Existing Code (Brownfield):**
+
+```
+1. Analyst or Technical Writer: *document-project
+2. PM or Analyst: *workflow-init
+3. PM: *create-prd or *tech-spec
+4. Architect: *create-architecture (if needed)
+5. PM: *create-epics-and-stories (after architecture)
+6. SM: *sprint-planning
+```
+
+**Story Development Cycle:**
+
+```
+1. SM: *create-story
+2. DEV: *develop-story
+3. DEV: *code-review
+4. Repeat steps 1-3 for next story
+```
+
+**Testing Strategy:**
+
+```
+1. TEA: *framework (once per project, early)
+2. TEA: *atdd (before implementing features)
+3. DEV: *develop-story (includes tests)
+4. TEA: *automate (comprehensive test suite)
+5. TEA: *trace (quality gate)
+6. TEA: *ci (pipeline setup)
+```
+
+### Navigation Tips
+
+**Lost? Run workflow-status**
+
+```
+Load any agent → *workflow-status
+Agent analyzes project state → recommends next workflow
+```
+
+**Phase transitions:**
+
+```
+Each phase has validation gates:
+- Phase 2 to 3: validate-prd, validate-tech-spec
+- Phase 3 to 4: implementation-readiness
+Run validation before advancing
+```
+
+**Course correction:**
+
+```
+If priorities change mid-project:
+Load PM, Architect, or SM → *correct-course
+```
+
+**Testing integration:**
+
+```
+TEA can be invoked at any phase:
+- Phase 1: Test strategy planning
+- Phase 2: Test scenarios in PRD
+- Phase 3: Architecture testability review
+- Phase 4: Test automation and CI
+```
