bmad-stella 1.0.4 → 1.1.1

package/CHANGELOG.md

@@ -1,3 +1,20 @@
+## [Unreleased]
+
+### Features
+
+- **scribe**: simplified cross-session notes capture.
+  - New location: `bmad-docs/bmad-notes/notes.md` (single append-only file).
+  - Single entry type with timestamp-based IDs: `NOTE-{YYYY-MM-DD-HHMMSS-mmm}`.
+  - Capture protocol embedded in all 14 BMAD agents — auto-records decisions and findings per turn at zero extra API cost.
+  - Tag taxonomy retained in `bmad-core/data/scribe-rules.yaml`.
+  - Silent installer setup; notes path auto-allowlisted via Claude Code permissions manager.
+  - Docs: [docs/scribe-user-guide.md](docs/scribe-user-guide.md).
+
+### Removed
+
+- **scribe**: removed read protocol, on-disk index (`index.yaml`), atomic-rename pattern, `actions.md`, schema version, and the `/scribe` agent (Sam) with its `*recall` command. Recall is now manual — open the notes file or grep it.
+- Old `bmad-ledger/` directory replaced by `bmad-docs/bmad-notes/`. Existing ledger directories remain as historical orphans (no migration).

+plan-file-permissions:
+  - Plan-file edit permissions are defined by the template's per-section `editors:` field. Only modify sections where you are listed as an editor.
+  - You are authorized to create and modify source code files and test files per the active plan's Technical Approach.
+
+# All commands require * prefix when used (e.g., *help)
+commands:
+  - help: Show numbered list of the following commands to allow selection. Format each as "{number}. *{command-name} {parameters} - {description}"
+  - implement-task: run task implement-task.md
+  - explain: teach me what and why you did whatever you just did in detail so I can learn. Explain to me as if you were training a junior engineer.
+  - comment-plan {plan-file}:
+      - precondition: If Task Information has no Jira ticket key/URL, HALT and skip.
+      - flow: Extract Jira key → fetch ticket via Atlassian MCP → run acceptance-criteria-sync → build comment per comment-structure (Jira markdown) → show comment, request approval → post → display ticket URL.
+      - acceptance-criteria-sync:
+          - If the Jira description already has an Acceptance Criteria or Requirements section, skip.
+          - Else append the plan's AC section to the end of the description, byte-for-byte preserving every pre-existing character. Show the diff, get explicit approval, then submit via Atlassian MCP.
+          - Acceptance Criteria must never appear in the posted comment.
+      - comment-structure:
+          - Implementation Summary — one-idea-per-bullet list from Technical Approach and completed tasks.
+          - Impact Area — terse list of product features/modules touched (mark primary vs. secondary when multiple). Domain names only — no file paths, no class/function names.
+      - on-error: HALT on missing Jira key, MCP failure, or description-update failure.
+  - review-qa-security: run task `apply-qa-security-fixes.md`
+  - exit: Execute '/BMad:caveman' skill with args 'stop caveman' → say goodbye as the Developer → abandon inhabiting this persona
