- 1. **Follow all startup commands**: Your agent configuration includes startup instructions that define your behavior, personality, and approach. These MUST be followed exactly.
8
-
9
- 2. **Resource Navigation**: This bundle contains all resources you need. Resources are marked with tags like:
10
-
11
- - `==================== START: .bmad-core/folder/filename.md ====================`
12
- - `==================== END: .bmad-core/folder/filename.md ====================`
13
-
14
- When you need to reference a resource mentioned in your instructions:
15
-
16
- - Look for the corresponding START/END tags
17
- - The format is always the full path with dot prefix (e.g., `.bmad-core/personas/analyst.md`, `.bmad-core/tasks/create-story.md`)
18
- - If a section is specified (e.g., `{root}/tasks/create-story.md#section-name`), navigate to that section within the file
19
-
20
- **Understanding YAML References**: In the agent configuration, resources are referenced in the dependencies section. For example:
21
-
22
- ```yaml
23
- dependencies:
24
- utils:
25
- - template-format
26
- tasks:
27
- - create-story
28
- ```
29
-
30
- These references map directly to bundle sections:
31
-
32
- - `utils: template-format` → Look for `==================== START: .bmad-core/utils/template-format.md ====================`
33
- - `tasks: create-story` → Look for `==================== START: .bmad-core/tasks/create-story.md ====================`
34
-
35
- 3. **Execution Context**: You are operating in a web environment. All your capabilities and knowledge are contained within this bundle. Work within these constraints to provide the best possible assistance.
36
-
37
- 4. **Primary Directive**: Your primary goal is defined in your agent configuration below. Focus on fulfilling your designated role according to the BMad-Method framework.

- # Create Document from Template (YAML Driven)
106
-
107
- ## CRITICAL: Mandatory Elicitation Format
108
-
109
- **When `elicit: true`, ALWAYS use this exact format:**
110
-
111
- 1. Present section content
112
- 2. Provide detailed rationale (explain trade-offs, assumptions, decisions made)
113
- 3. Present numbered options 1-9:
114
- - **Option 1:** Always "Proceed to next section"
115
- - **Options 2-9:** Select 8 methods from data/elicitation-methods
116
- - End with: "Select 1-9 or just type your question/feedback:"
117
-
118
- **NEVER ask yes/no questions or use any other format.**
119
-
120
- ## Processing Flow
121
-
122
- 1. **Parse YAML template** - Load template metadata and sections
123
- 2. **Set preferences** - Show current mode (Interactive), confirm output file
124
- 3. **Process each section:**
125
- - Skip if condition unmet
126
- - Check agent permissions (owner/editors) - note if section is restricted to specific agents
127
- - Draft content using section instruction
128
- - Present content + detailed rationale
129
- - **IF elicit: true** → MANDATORY 1-9 options format
130
- - Save to file if possible
131
- 4. **Continue until complete**
132
-
133
- ## Detailed Rationale Requirements
134
-
135
- When presenting section content, ALWAYS include rationale that explains:
136
-
137
- - Trade-offs and choices made (what was chosen over alternatives and why)
138
- - Key assumptions made during drafting
139
- - Interesting or questionable decisions that need user attention
140
- - Areas that might need validation
141
-
142
- ## Elicitation Results Flow
143
-
144
- After user selects elicitation method (2-9):
145
-
146
- 1. Execute method from data/elicitation-methods
147
- 2. Present results with insights
148
- 3. Offer options:
149
- - **1. Apply changes and update section**
150
- - **2. Return to elicitation menu**
151
- - **3. Ask any questions or engage further with this elicitation**
152
-
153
- ## Agent Permissions
154
-
155
- When processing sections with agent permission fields:
156
-
157
- - **owner**: Note which agent role initially creates/populates the section
158
- - **editors**: List agent roles allowed to modify the section
159
- - **readonly**: Mark sections that cannot be modified after creation
160
-
161
- **For sections with restricted access:**
162
-
163
- - Include a note in the generated document indicating the responsible agent
164
- - Example: "_(This section is owned by dev-agent and can only be modified by dev-agent)_"
165
-
166
- ## YOLO Mode
167
-
168
- User can type `#yolo` to toggle to YOLO mode (process all sections at once).
169
-
170
- ## CRITICAL REMINDERS
171
-
172
- **❌ NEVER:**
173
-
174
- - Ask yes/no questions for elicitation
175
- - Use any format other than 1-9 numbered options
176
- - Create new elicitation methods
177
-
178
- **✅ ALWAYS:**
179
-
180
- - Use exact 1-9 format when elicit: true
181
- - Select options 2-9 from data/elicitation-methods only
182
- - Provide detailed rationale explaining decisions
183
- - End with "Select 1-9 or just type your question/feedback:"

- # Document an Existing Project
492
-
493
- ## Purpose
494
-
495
- Generate comprehensive documentation for existing projects optimized for AI development agents. This task creates structured reference materials that enable AI agents to understand project context, conventions, and patterns for effective contribution to any codebase.
496
-
497
- ## Task Instructions
498
-
499
- ### 1. Initial Project Analysis
500
-
501
- [[LLM: First, check if a PRD or requirements document exists in context. If yes, use it to focus your documentation efforts on relevant areas only.
502
-
503
- **IF PRD EXISTS**:
504
-
505
- - Review the PRD to understand what enhancement/feature is planned
506
- - Identify which modules, services, or areas will be affected
507
- - Focus documentation ONLY on these relevant areas
508
- - Skip unrelated parts of the codebase to keep docs lean
509
-
510
- **IF NO PRD EXISTS**:
511
- Ask the user:
512
-
513
- "I notice you haven't provided a PRD or requirements document. To create more focused and useful documentation, I recommend one of these options:
514
-
515
- 1. **Create a PRD first** - Would you like me to help create a brownfield PRD before documenting? This helps focus documentation on relevant areas.
516
-
517
- 2. **Provide existing requirements** - Do you have a requirements document, epic, or feature description you can share?
518
-
519
- 3. **Describe the focus** - Can you briefly describe what enhancement or feature you're planning? For example:
520
- - 'Adding payment processing to the user service'
521
- - 'Refactoring the authentication module'
522
- - 'Integrating with a new third-party API'
523
-
524
- 4. **Document everything** - Or should I proceed with comprehensive documentation of the entire codebase? (Note: This may create excessive documentation for large projects)
525
-
526
- Please let me know your preference, or I can proceed with full documentation if you prefer."
527
-
528
- Based on their response:
529
-
530
- - If they choose option 1-3: Use that context to focus documentation
531
- - If they choose option 4 or decline: Proceed with comprehensive analysis below
532
-
533
- Begin by conducting analysis of the existing project. Use available tools to:
534
-
535
- 1. **Project Structure Discovery**: Examine the root directory structure, identify main folders, and understand the overall organization
536
- 2. **Technology Stack Identification**: Look for package.json, requirements.txt, Cargo.toml, pom.xml, etc. to identify languages, frameworks, and dependencies
537
- 3. **Build System Analysis**: Find build scripts, CI/CD configurations, and development commands
538
- 4. **Existing Documentation Review**: Check for README files, docs folders, and any existing documentation
539
- 5. **Code Pattern Analysis**: Sample key files to understand coding patterns, naming conventions, and architectural approaches
540
-
541
- Ask the user these elicitation questions to better understand their needs:
542
-
543
- - What is the primary purpose of this project?
544
- - Are there any specific areas of the codebase that are particularly complex or important for agents to understand?
545
- - What types of tasks do you expect AI agents to perform on this project? (e.g., bug fixes, feature additions, refactoring, testing)
546
- - Are there any existing documentation standards or formats you prefer?
547
- - What level of technical detail should the documentation target? (junior developers, senior developers, mixed team)
548
- - Is there a specific feature or enhancement you're planning? (This helps focus documentation)

551
- ### 2. Deep Codebase Analysis
552
-
553
- [[LLM: Before generating documentation, conduct extensive analysis of the existing codebase:
554
-
555
- 1. **Explore Key Areas**:
556
- - Entry points (main files, index files, app initializers)
557
- - Configuration files and environment setup
558
- - Package dependencies and versions
559
- - Build and deployment configurations
560
- - Test suites and coverage
561
-
562
- 2. **Ask Clarifying Questions**:
563
- - "I see you're using [technology X]. Are there any custom patterns or conventions I should document?"
564
- - "What are the most critical/complex parts of this system that developers struggle with?"
565
- - "Are there any undocumented 'tribal knowledge' areas I should capture?"
566
- - "What technical debt or known issues should I document?"
567
- - "Which parts of the codebase change most frequently?"
568
-
569
- 3. **Map the Reality**:
570
- - Identify ACTUAL patterns used (not theoretical best practices)
571
- - Find where key business logic lives
572
- - Locate integration points and external dependencies
573
- - Document workarounds and technical debt
574
- - Note areas that differ from standard patterns
575
-
576
- **IF PRD PROVIDED**: Also analyze what would need to change for the enhancement]]
577
-
578
- ### 3. Core Documentation Generation
579
-
580
- [[LLM: Generate a comprehensive BROWNFIELD architecture document that reflects the ACTUAL state of the codebase.
581
-
582
- **CRITICAL**: This is NOT an aspirational architecture document. Document what EXISTS, including:
583
- - Technical debt and workarounds
584
- - Inconsistent patterns between different parts
585
- - Legacy code that can't be changed
586
- - Integration constraints
587
- - Performance bottlenecks
588
-
589
- **Document Structure**:
590
-
591
- # [Project Name] Brownfield Architecture Document
592
-
593
- ## Introduction
594
- This document captures the CURRENT STATE of the [Project Name] codebase, including technical debt, workarounds, and real-world patterns. It serves as a reference for AI agents working on enhancements.
595
-
596
- ### Document Scope
597
- [If PRD provided: "Focused on areas relevant to: {enhancement description}"]
598
- [If no PRD: "Comprehensive documentation of entire system"]

-
605
- ## Quick Reference - Key Files and Entry Points
606
-
607
- ### Critical Files for Understanding the System
608
- - **Main Entry**: `src/index.js` (or actual entry point)
609
- - **Configuration**: `config/app.config.js`, `.env.example`
610
- - **Core Business Logic**: `src/services/`, `src/domain/`
611
- - **API Definitions**: `src/routes/` or link to OpenAPI spec
612
- - **Database Models**: `src/models/` or link to schema files
613
- - **Key Algorithms**: [List specific files with complex logic]
614
-
615
- ### If PRD Provided - Enhancement Impact Areas
616
- [Highlight which files/modules will be affected by the planned enhancement]
617
-
618
- ## High Level Architecture
619
-
620
- ### Technical Summary
621
- [Real assessment of architecture - mention if it's well-structured or has issues]
622
-
623
- ### Actual Tech Stack (from package.json/requirements.txt)
624
- | Category | Technology | Version | Notes |
625
- |----------|------------|---------|--------|
626
- | Runtime | Node.js | 16.x | [Any constraints] |
627
- | Framework | Express | 4.18.2 | [Custom middleware?] |
628
- | Database | PostgreSQL | 13 | [Connection pooling setup] |
629
- | [etc...] |
630
-
631
- ### Repository Structure Reality Check
632
- - Type: [Monorepo/Polyrepo/Hybrid]
633
- - Package Manager: [npm/yarn/pnpm]
634
- - Notable: [Any unusual structure decisions]
635
-
636
- ## Source Tree and Module Organization
637
-
638
- ### Project Structure (Actual)
639
- ```
640
- project-root/
641
- ├── src/
642
- │ ├── controllers/ # HTTP request handlers
643
- │ ├── services/ # Business logic (NOTE: inconsistent patterns between user and payment services)
644
- │ ├── models/ # Database models (Sequelize)
645
- │ ├── utils/ # Mixed bag - needs refactoring

648
- ├── scripts/ # Build and deployment scripts
649
- └── config/ # Environment configs
650
- ```
651
-
652
- ### Key Modules and Their Purpose
653
- - **User Management**: `src/services/userService.js` - Handles all user operations
654
- - **Authentication**: `src/middleware/auth.js` - JWT-based, custom implementation
655
- - **Payment Processing**: `src/legacy/payment.js` - CRITICAL: Do not refactor, tightly coupled
656
- - **[List other key modules with their actual files]**
657
-
658
- ## Data Models and APIs
659
-
660
- ### Data Models
661
- Instead of duplicating, reference actual model files:
662
- - **User Model**: See `src/models/User.js`
663
- - **Order Model**: See `src/models/Order.js`
664
- - **Related Types**: TypeScript definitions in `src/types/`
665
-
666
- ### API Specifications
667
- - **OpenAPI Spec**: `docs/api/openapi.yaml` (if exists)
668
- - **Postman Collection**: `docs/api/postman-collection.json`
669
- - **Manual Endpoints**: [List any undocumented endpoints discovered]
670
-
671
- ## Technical Debt and Known Issues
672
-
673
- ### Critical Technical Debt
674
- 1. **Payment Service**: Legacy code in `src/legacy/payment.js` - tightly coupled, no tests
675
- 2. **User Service**: Different pattern than other services, uses callbacks instead of promises
676
- 3. **Database Migrations**: Manually tracked, no proper migration tool
677
- 4. **[Other significant debt]**
678
-
679
- ### Workarounds and Gotchas
680
- - **Environment Variables**: Must set `NODE_ENV=production` even for staging (historical reason)
681
- - **Database Connections**: Connection pool hardcoded to 10, changing breaks payment service
682
- - **[Other workarounds developers need to know]**
683
-
684
- ## Integration Points and External Dependencies
685
-
686
- ### External Services
687
- | Service | Purpose | Integration Type | Key Files |
688
- |---------|---------|------------------|-----------|
689
- | Stripe | Payments | REST API | `src/integrations/stripe/` |
690
- | SendGrid | Emails | SDK | `src/services/emailService.js` |
691
- | [etc...] |
692
-
693
- ### Internal Integration Points
694
- - **Frontend Communication**: REST API on port 3000, expects specific headers
695
- - **Background Jobs**: Redis queue, see `src/workers/`
696
- - **[Other integrations]**
697
-
698
- ## Development and Deployment
699
-
700
- ### Local Development Setup
701
- 1. Actual steps that work (not ideal steps)
702
- 2. Known issues with setup
703
- 3. Required environment variables (see `.env.example`)
704
-
705
- ### Build and Deployment Process
706
- - **Build Command**: `npm run build` (webpack config in `webpack.config.js`)
707
- - **Deployment**: Manual deployment via `scripts/deploy.sh`
708
- - **Environments**: Dev, Staging, Prod (see `config/environments/`)
709
-
710
- ## Testing Reality
711
-
712
- ### Current Test Coverage
713
- - Unit Tests: 60% coverage (Jest)
714
- - Integration Tests: Minimal, in `tests/integration/`
715
- - E2E Tests: None
716
- - Manual Testing: Primary QA method
717
-
718
- ### Running Tests
719
- ```bash
720
- npm test # Runs unit tests
721
- npm run test:integration # Runs integration tests (requires local DB)
722
- ```
723
-
724
- ## If Enhancement PRD Provided - Impact Analysis
725
-
726
- ### Files That Will Need Modification
727
- Based on the enhancement requirements, these files will be affected:
728
- - `src/services/userService.js` - Add new user fields
729
- - `src/models/User.js` - Update schema
730

731
- - [etc...]
732
-
733
- ### New Files/Modules Needed
734
- - `src/services/newFeatureService.js` - New business logic
735
- - `src/models/NewFeature.js` - New data model
736
- - [etc...]
737
-
738
- ### Integration Considerations
739
- - Will need to integrate with existing auth middleware
740
- - Must follow existing response format in `src/utils/responseFormatter.js`
741
- - [Other integration points]
742
-
743
- ## Appendix - Useful Commands and Scripts
744
-
745
- ### Frequently Used Commands
746
- ```bash
747
- npm run dev # Start development server
748
- npm run build # Production build
749
- npm run migrate # Run database migrations
750
- npm run seed # Seed test data
751
- ```
752
-
753
- ### Debugging and Troubleshooting
754
- - **Logs**: Check `logs/app.log` for application logs
755
- - **Debug Mode**: Set `DEBUG=app:*` for verbose logging
756
- - **Common Issues**: See `docs/troubleshooting.md`]]
757
-
758
- ### 4. Document Delivery
759
-
760
- [[LLM: After generating the complete architecture document:
761
-
762
- 1. **In Web UI (Gemini, ChatGPT, Claude)**:
763
- - Present the entire document in one response (or multiple if too long)
764
- - Tell user to copy and save as `docs/brownfield-architecture.md` or `docs/project-architecture.md`
765
- - Mention it can be sharded later in IDE if needed
766
-
767
- 2. **In IDE Environment**:
768
- - Create the document as `docs/brownfield-architecture.md`
769
- - Inform user this single document contains all architectural information
770
- - Can be sharded later using PO agent if desired
771
-
772
- The document should be comprehensive enough that future agents can understand:
773
- - The actual state of the system (not idealized)
774
- - Where to find key files and logic
775
- - What technical debt exists
776
- - What constraints must be respected
777
- - If PRD provided: What needs to change for the enhancement]]
778
-
779
- ### 5. Quality Assurance
780
-
781
- [[LLM: Before finalizing the document:
782
-
783
- 1. **Accuracy Check**: Verify all technical details match the actual codebase
784
- 2. **Completeness Review**: Ensure all major system components are documented
785
- 3. **Focus Validation**: If user provided scope, verify relevant areas are emphasized
786
- 4. **Clarity Assessment**: Check that explanations are clear for AI agents
787
- 5. **Navigation**: Ensure document has clear section structure for easy reference
788
-
789
- Apply the advanced elicitation task after major sections to refine based on user feedback.]]
790
-
791
- ## Success Criteria
792
-
793
- - Single comprehensive brownfield architecture document created
794
- - Document reflects REALITY including technical debt and workarounds
795
- - Key files and modules are referenced with actual paths
796
- - Models/APIs reference source files rather than duplicating content
797
- - If PRD provided: Clear impact analysis showing what needs to change
798
- - Document enables AI agents to navigate and understand the actual codebase
799
- - Technical constraints and "gotchas" are clearly documented
800
-
801
- ## Notes
802
-
803
- - This task creates ONE document that captures the TRUE state of the system
804
- - References actual files rather than duplicating content when possible
805
- - Documents technical debt, workarounds, and constraints honestly
806
- - For brownfield projects with PRD: Provides clear enhancement impact analysis
807
- - The goal is PRACTICAL documentation for AI agents doing real work

811
- # Checklist Validation Task
812
-
813
- This task provides instructions for validating documentation against checklists. The agent MUST follow these instructions to ensure thorough and systematic validation of documents.
814
-
815
- ## Available Checklists
816
-
817
- If the user asks or does not specify a specific checklist, list the checklists available to the agent persona. If the task is being run not with a specific agent, tell the user to check the .bmad-core/checklists folder to select the appropriate one to run.
818
-
819
- ## Instructions
820
-
821
- 1. **Initial Assessment**
822
-
823
- - If user or the task being run provides a checklist name:
824
- - Try fuzzy matching (e.g. "architecture checklist" -> "architect-checklist")
825
- - If multiple matches found, ask user to clarify
826
- - Load the appropriate checklist from .bmad-core/checklists/
827
- - If no checklist specified:
828
- - Ask the user which checklist they want to use
829
- - Present the available options from the files in the checklists folder
830
- - Confirm if they want to work through the checklist:
831
- - Section by section (interactive mode - very time consuming)
832
- - All at once (YOLO mode - recommended for checklists, there will be a summary of sections at the end to discuss)
833
-
834
- 2. **Document and Artifact Gathering**
835
-
836
- - Each checklist will specify its required documents/artifacts at the beginning
837
- - Follow the checklist's specific instructions for what to gather, generally a file can be resolved in the docs folder, if not or unsure, halt and ask or confirm with the user.
838
-
839
- 3. **Checklist Processing**
840
-
841
- If in interactive mode:
842
-
843
- - Work through each section of the checklist one at a time
844
- - For each section:
845
- - Review all items in the section following instructions for that section embedded in the checklist
846
- - Check each item against the relevant documentation or artifacts as appropriate
847
- - Present summary of findings for that section, highlighting warnings, errors and non applicable items (rationale for non-applicability).
848
- - Get user confirmation before proceeding to next section or if any thing major do we need to halt and take corrective action
849
-
850
- If in YOLO mode:
851
-
852
- - Process all sections at once
853
- - Create a comprehensive report of all findings
854
- - Present the complete analysis to the user
855
-
856
- 4. **Validation Approach**
857
-
858
- For each checklist item:
859
-
860
- - Read and understand the requirement
861
- - Look for evidence in the documentation that satisfies the requirement
862
- - Consider both explicit mentions and implicit coverage
863
- - Aside from this, follow all checklist llm instructions
864
- - Mark items as:
865
- - ✅ PASS: Requirement clearly met
866
- - ❌ FAIL: Requirement not met or insufficient coverage
867
- - ⚠️ PARTIAL: Some aspects covered but needs improvement
868
- - N/A: Not applicable to this case
869
-
870
- 5. **Section Analysis**
871
-
872
- For each section:
873
-
874
- - think step by step to calculate pass rate
875
- - Identify common themes in failed items
876
- - Provide specific recommendations for improvement
877
- - In interactive mode, discuss findings with user
878
- - Document any user decisions or explanations
879
-
880
- 6. **Final Report**
881
-
882
- Prepare a summary that includes:
883
-
884
- - Overall checklist completion status
885
- - Pass rates by section
886
- - List of failed items with context
887
- - Specific recommendations for improvement
888
- - Any sections or items marked as N/A with justification
889
-
890
- ## Checklist Execution Methodology
891
-
892
- Each checklist now contains embedded LLM prompts and instructions that will:
893
-
894
- 1. **Guide thorough thinking** - Prompts ensure deep analysis of each section
895
- 2. **Request specific artifacts** - Clear instructions on what documents/access is needed
896
- 3. **Provide contextual guidance** - Section-specific prompts for better validation
897
- 4. **Generate comprehensive reports** - Final summary with detailed findings
898
-
899
- The LLM will:
900
-
901
- - Execute the complete checklist validation
902
- - Present a final report with pass/fail rates and key findings
903
- - Offer to provide detailed analysis of any section, especially those with warnings or failures

930
- **Relationship to Frontend Architecture:**
931
- If the project includes a significant user interface, a separate Frontend Architecture Document will detail the frontend-specific design and MUST be used in conjunction with this document.

- - id: starter-template
933
- title: Starter Template or Existing Project
934
- instruction: |
935
- Before proceeding further with architecture design, check if the project is based on a starter template or existing codebase:
936
-
937
- 1. Review the PRD and brainstorming brief for any mentions of:
938
- - Starter templates (e.g., Create React App, Next.js, Vue CLI, Angular CLI, etc.)
939
- - Existing projects or codebases being used as a foundation
940
- - Boilerplate projects or scaffolding tools
941
- - Previous projects to be cloned or adapted
942
-
943
- 2. If a starter template or existing project is mentioned:
944
- - Ask the user to provide access via one of these methods:
945
- - Link to the starter template documentation
946
- - Upload/attach the project files (for small projects)
947
- - Share a link to the project repository (GitHub, GitLab, etc.)
948
- - Analyze the starter/existing project to understand:
949
- - Pre-configured technology stack and versions
950
- - Project structure and organization patterns
951
- - Built-in scripts and tooling
952
- - Existing architectural patterns and conventions
953
- - Any limitations or constraints imposed by the starter
954
- - Use this analysis to inform and align your architecture decisions
955
-
956
- 3. If no starter template is mentioned but this is a greenfield project:
957
- - Suggest appropriate starter templates based on the tech stack preferences
958
- - Explain the benefits (faster setup, best practices, community support)
959
- - Let the user decide whether to use one
960
-
961
- 4. If the user confirms no starter template will be used:
962
- - Proceed with architecture design from scratch
963
- - Note that manual setup will be required for all tooling and configuration
964
-
965

1014
-
1015
- 1. Present 2-3 viable options if multiple exist
1016
- 2. Provide your recommendation with clear rationale
1017
- 3. Get user confirmation before finalizing
1018
- 4. These patterns should align with the PRD's technical assumptions and project goals
1019
-
1020
- Common patterns to consider:
1021
- - Architectural style patterns (Serverless, Event-Driven, Microservices, CQRS, Hexagonal)
1022
- - Code organization patterns (Dependency Injection, Repository, Module, Factory)
1023

1038
- 3. Make a clear recommendation based on project needs
1039
- 4. Get explicit user approval for each selection
1040
- 5. Document exact versions (avoid "latest" - pin specific versions)
1041
- 6. This table is the single source of truth - all other docs must reference these choices
1042
-
1043
- Key decisions to finalize - before displaying the table, ensure you are aware of or ask the user about - let the user know if they are not sure on any that you can also provide suggestions with rationale:
1044
-
1045
- - Starter templates (if any)
1046
- - Languages and runtimes with exact versions
1047
- - Frameworks and libraries / packages
1048
- - Cloud provider and key services choices
1049
- - Database and storage solutions - if unclear suggest sql or nosql or other types depending on the project and depending on cloud provider offer a suggestion
1050
- - Development tools
1051
-
1052
- Upon render of the table, ensure the user is aware of the importance of this sections choices, should also look for gaps or disagreements with anything, ask for any clarifications if something is unclear why its in the list, and also right away elicit feedback - this statement and the options should be rendered and then prompt right all before allowing user input.

1577
- Review provided documents including PRD, UX-UI Specification, and main Architecture Document. Focus on extracting technical implementation details needed for AI frontend tools and developer agents. Ask the user for any of these documents if you are unable to locate and were not provided.
1578
-
1579
- Before proceeding with frontend architecture design, check if the project is using a frontend starter template or existing codebase:
1580
-
1581
- 1. Review the PRD, main architecture document, and brainstorming brief for mentions of:
1582
- - Frontend starter templates (e.g., Create React App, Next.js, Vite, Vue CLI, Angular CLI, etc.)
1583
- - UI kit or component library starters
1584
- - Existing frontend projects being used as a foundation
1585
- - Admin dashboard templates or other specialized starters
1586
- - Design system implementations
1587
-
1588
- 2. If a frontend starter template or existing project is mentioned:
1589
- - Ask the user to provide access via one of these methods:
1590
- - Link to the starter template documentation
1591
- - Upload/attach the project files (for small projects)
1592
- - Share a link to the project repository
1593
- - Analyze the starter/existing project to understand:
1594
- - Pre-installed dependencies and versions
1595
- - Folder structure and file organization
1596
- - Built-in components and utilities
1597
- - Styling approach (CSS modules, styled-components, Tailwind, etc.)
1598
- - State management setup (if any)
1599
- - Routing configuration
1600
- - Testing setup and patterns
1601
- - Build and development scripts
1602
- - Use this analysis to ensure your frontend architecture aligns with the starter's patterns
1603
-
1604
- 3. If no frontend starter is mentioned but this is a new UI, ensure we know what the ui language and framework is:
1605
- - Based on the framework choice, suggest appropriate starters:
1606
- - React: Create React App, Next.js, Vite + React
1607
- - Vue: Vue CLI, Nuxt.js, Vite + Vue
1608
- - Angular: Angular CLI
1609
- - Or suggest popular UI templates if applicable
1610
- - Explain benefits specific to frontend development
1611
-
1612
- 4. If the user confirms no starter template will be used:
1613
- - Note that all tooling, bundling, and configuration will need manual setup
1614
- - Proceed with frontend architecture from scratch
1615
-
1616
- Document the starter template decision and any constraints it imposes before proceeding.

- This architecture document is for SIGNIFICANT enhancements to existing projects that require comprehensive architectural planning. Before proceeding:
2597
-
2598
- 1. **Verify Complexity**: Confirm this enhancement requires architectural planning. For simple additions, recommend: "For simpler changes that don't require architectural planning, consider using the brownfield-create-epic or brownfield-create-story task with the Product Owner instead."
2599
-
2600
- 2. **REQUIRED INPUTS**:
2601
- - Completed brownfield-prd.md
2602
- - Existing project technical documentation (from docs folder or user-provided)
2603
- - Access to existing project structure (IDE or uploaded files)
2604
-
2605
- 3. **DEEP ANALYSIS MANDATE**: You MUST conduct thorough analysis of the existing codebase, architecture patterns, and technical constraints before making ANY architectural recommendations. Every suggestion must be based on actual project analysis, not assumptions.
2606
-
2607
- 4. **CONTINUOUS VALIDATION**: Throughout this process, explicitly validate your understanding with the user. For every architectural decision, confirm: "Based on my analysis of your existing system, I recommend [decision] because [evidence from actual project]. Does this align with your system's reality?"

- # Architect Solution Validation Checklist
3057
-
3058
- This checklist serves as a comprehensive framework for the Architect to validate the technical design and architecture before development execution. The Architect should systematically work through each item, ensuring the architecture is robust, scalable, secure, and aligned with the product requirements.
3059
-
3060
- [[LLM: INITIALIZATION INSTRUCTIONS - REQUIRED ARTIFACTS
3061
-
3062
- Before proceeding with this checklist, ensure you have access to:
3063
-
3064
- 1. architecture.md - The primary architecture document (check docs/architecture.md)
3065
- 2. prd.md - Product Requirements Document for requirements alignment (check docs/prd.md)
3066
- 3. frontend-architecture.md or fe-architecture.md - If this is a UI project (check docs/frontend-architecture.md)
3067
- 4. Any system diagrams referenced in the architecture
3068
- 5. API documentation if available
3069
- 6. Technology stack details and version specifications
3070
-
3071
- IMPORTANT: If any required documents are missing or inaccessible, immediately ask the user for their location or content before proceeding.
3072
-
3073
- PROJECT TYPE DETECTION:
3074
- First, determine the project type by checking:
3075
-
3076
- - Does the architecture include a frontend/UI component?
3077
- - Is there a frontend-architecture.md document?
3078
- - Does the PRD mention user interfaces or frontend requirements?
3079
-
3080
- If this is a backend-only or service-only project:
3081
-
3082
- - Skip sections marked with [[FRONTEND ONLY]]
3083
- - Focus extra attention on API design, service architecture, and integration patterns
3084
- - Note in your final report that frontend sections were skipped due to project type
3085
-
3086
- VALIDATION APPROACH:
3087
- For each section, you must:
3088
-
3089
- 1. Deep Analysis - Don't just check boxes, thoroughly analyze each item against the provided documentation
3090
- 2. Evidence-Based - Cite specific sections or quotes from the documents when validating
3091
- 3. Critical Thinking - Question assumptions and identify gaps, not just confirm what's present
3092
- 4. Risk Assessment - Consider what could go wrong with each architectural decision
3093
-
3094
- EXECUTION MODE:
3095
- Ask the user if they want to work through the checklist:
3096
-
3097
- - Section by section (interactive mode) - Review each section, present findings, get confirmation before proceeding
3098
- - All at once (comprehensive mode) - Complete full analysis and present comprehensive report at end]]
3099
-
3100
- ## 1. REQUIREMENTS ALIGNMENT
3101
-
3102
- [[LLM: Before evaluating this section, take a moment to fully understand the product's purpose and goals from the PRD. What is the core problem being solved? Who are the users? What are the critical success factors? Keep these in mind as you validate alignment. For each item, don't just check if it's mentioned - verify that the architecture provides a concrete technical solution.]]
