-# Step 3: Starter Template Evaluation
-
-## MANDATORY EXECUTION RULES (READ FIRST):
-
-- 🛑 NEVER generate content without user input
-- ✅ ALWAYS treat this as collaborative discovery between architectural peers
-- 📋 YOU ARE A FACILITATOR, not a content generator
-- 💬 FOCUS on evaluating starter template options with current versions
-- 🌐 ALWAYS search the web to verify current versions - NEVER trust hardcoded versions
-- ⚠️ ABSOLUTELY NO TIME ESTIMATES - AI development speed has fundamentally changed
-- 📖 CRITICAL: ALWAYS read the complete step file before taking any action - partial understanding leads to incomplete architecture
-- 🔄 CRITICAL: When loading next step with 'C', ensure the entire file is read and understood before proceeding
-- ✅ YOU MUST ALWAYS SPEAK OUTPUT In your Agent communication style with the config `{communication_language}`
-
-## EXECUTION PROTOCOLS:
-
-- 🎯 Show your analysis before taking any action
-- 🌐 Search the web to verify current versions and options
-- ⚠️ Present A/P/C menu after generating starter template analysis
-- 💾 ONLY save when user chooses C (Continue)
-- 📖 Update frontmatter `stepsCompleted: [1, 2, 3]` before loading next step
-- 🚫 FORBIDDEN to load next step until C is selected
-
-## COLLABORATION MENUS (A/P/C):
-
-This step will generate content and present choices:
-
-- **A (Advanced Elicitation)**: Use discovery protocols to explore unconventional starter options or custom approaches
-- **P (Party Mode)**: Bring multiple perspectives to evaluate starter trade-offs for different use cases
-- **C (Continue)**: Save the content to the document and proceed to next step
-
-## PROTOCOL INTEGRATION:
-
-- When 'A' selected: Invoke the `bmad-advanced-elicitation` skill
-- When 'P' selected: Invoke the `bmad-party-mode` skill
-- PROTOCOLS always return to display this step's A/P/C menu after the A or P have completed
-- User accepts/rejects protocol changes before proceeding
-
-## CONTEXT BOUNDARIES:
-
-- Project context from step 2 is available and complete
-- Project context file from step-01 may contain technical preferences
-- No architectural decisions made yet - evaluating foundations
-- Focus on technical preferences discovery and starter evaluation
-- Consider project requirements and existing preferences when evaluating options
-
-## YOUR TASK:
-
-Discover technical preferences and evaluate starter template options, leveraging existing technical preferences and establishing solid architectural foundations.
-
-## STARTER EVALUATION SEQUENCE:
-
-### 0. Check Technical Preferences & Context
-
-**Check Project Context for Existing Technical Preferences:**
-"Before we dive into starter templates, let me check if you have any technical preferences already documented.
-
-{{if_project_context_exists}}
-I found some technical rules in your project context file:
-{{extracted_technical_preferences_from_project_context}}
-
-**Project Context Technical Rules Found:**
-
-- Languages/Frameworks: {{languages_frameworks_from_context}}
-- Tools & Libraries: {{tools_from_context}}
-- Development Patterns: {{patterns_from_context}}
-- Platform Preferences: {{platforms_from_context}}
-
-{{else}}
-No existing technical preferences found in project context file. We'll establish your technical preferences now.
-{{/if_project_context}}"
-
-**Discover User Technical Preferences:**
-"Based on your project context, let's discuss your technical preferences:
-
-{{primary_technology_category}} Preferences:
-
-- **Languages**: Do you have preferences between TypeScript/JavaScript, Python, Go, Rust, etc.?
-- **Frameworks**: Any existing familiarity or preferences (React, Vue, Angular, Next.js, etc.)?
-- **Databases**: Any preferences or existing infrastructure (PostgreSQL, MongoDB, MySQL, etc.)?
-
-**Development Experience:**
-
-- What's your team's experience level with different technologies?
-- Are there any technologies you want to learn vs. what you're comfortable with?
-
-**Platform/Deployment Preferences:**
-
-- Cloud provider preferences (AWS, Vercel, Railway, etc.)?
-- Container preferences (Docker, Serverless, Traditional)?
-
-**Integrations:**
-
-- Any existing systems or APIs you need to integrate with?
-- Third-party services you plan to use (payment, authentication, analytics, etc.)?
-
-These preferences will help me recommend the most suitable starter templates and guide our architectural decisions."
-
-### 1. Identify Primary Technology Domain
-
-Based on project context analysis and technical preferences, identify the primary technology stack:
-
-- **Web application** → Look for Next.js, Vite, Remix, SvelteKit starters
-- **Mobile app** → Look for React Native, Expo, Flutter starters
-- **API/Backend** → Look for NestJS, Express, Fastify, Supabase starters
-- **CLI tool** → Look for CLI framework starters (oclif, commander, etc.)
-- **Full-stack** → Look for T3, RedwoodJS, Blitz, Next.js starters
-- **Desktop** → Look for Electron, Tauri starters
-
-### 2. UX Requirements Consideration
-
-If UX specification was loaded, consider UX requirements when selecting starter:
-
-- **Rich animations** → Framer Motion compatible starter
-- **Complex forms** → React Hook Form included starter
-- **Real-time features** → Socket.io or WebSocket ready starter
-- **Design system** → Storybook-enabled starter
-- **Offline capability** → Service worker or PWA configured starter
-
-### 3. Research Current Starter Options
-
-Search the web to find current, maintained starter templates:
-
-```
-Search the web: "{{primary_technology}} starter template CLI create command latest"
-Search the web: "{{primary_technology}} boilerplate generator latest options"
-Search the web: "{{primary_technology}} production-ready starter best practices"
-```
-
-### 4. Investigate Top Starter Options
-
-For each promising starter found, investigate details:
-
-```
-Search the web: "{{starter_name}} default setup technologies included latest"
-Search the web: "{{starter_name}} project structure file organization"
-Search the web: "{{starter_name}} production deployment capabilities"
-Search the web: "{{starter_name}} recent updates maintenance status"
-```
-
-### 5. Analyze What Each Starter Provides
-
-For each viable starter option, document:
-
-**Technology Decisions Made:**
-
-- Language/TypeScript configuration
-- Styling solution (CSS, Tailwind, Styled Components, etc.)
-- Testing framework setup
-- Linting/Formatting configuration
-- Build tooling and optimization
-- Project structure and organization
-
-**Architectural Patterns Established:**
-
-- Code organization patterns
-- Component structure conventions
-- API layering approach
-- State management setup
-- Routing patterns
-- Environment configuration
-
-**Development Experience Features:**
-
-- Hot reloading and development server
-- TypeScript configuration
-- Debugging setup
-- Testing infrastructure
-- Documentation generation
-
-### 6. Present Starter Options
-
-Based on user skill level and project needs:
-
-**For Expert Users:**
-"Found {{starter_name}} which provides:
-{{quick_decision_list_of_key_decisions}}
-
-This would establish our base architecture with these technical decisions already made. Use it?"
-
-**For Intermediate Users:**
-"I found {{starter_name}}, which is a well-maintained starter for {{project_type}} projects.
-
-It makes these architectural decisions for us:
-{{decision_list_with_explanations}}
-
-This gives us a solid foundation following current best practices. Should we use it?"
-
-**For Beginner Users:**
-"I found {{starter_name}}, which is like a pre-built foundation for your project.
-
-Think of it like buying a prefab house frame instead of cutting each board yourself.
-
-It makes these decisions for us:
-{{friendly_explanation_of_decisions}}
-
-This is a great starting point that follows best practices and saves us from making dozens of small technical choices. Should we use it?"
-
-### 7. Get Current CLI Commands
-
-If user shows interest in a starter, get the exact current commands:
-
-```
-Search the web: "{{starter_name}} CLI command options flags latest"
-Search the web: "{{starter_name}} create new project command examples"
-```
-
-### 8. Generate Starter Template Content
-
-Prepare the content to append to the document:
-
-#### Content Structure:
-
-````markdown
-## Starter Template Evaluation
-
-### Primary Technology Domain
-
-{{identified_domain}} based on project requirements analysis
-
-### Starter Options Considered
-
-{{analysis_of_evaluated_starters}}
-
-### Selected Starter: {{starter_name}}
-
-**Rationale for Selection:**
-{{why_this_starter_was_chosen}}
-
-**Initialization Command:**
-
-```bash
-{{full_starter_command_with_options}}
-```
-
-**Architectural Decisions Provided by Starter:**
-
-**Language & Runtime:**
-{{language_typescript_setup}}
-
-**Styling Solution:**
-{{styling_solution_configuration}}
-
-**Build Tooling:**
-{{build_tools_and_optimization}}
-
-**Testing Framework:**
-{{testing_setup_and_configuration}}
-
-**Code Organization:**
-{{project_structure_and_patterns}}
-
-**Development Experience:**
-{{development_tools_and_workflow}}
-
-**Note:** Project initialization using this command should be the first implementation story.
-
-````
-
-### 9. Present Content and Menu
-
-Show the generated content and present choices:
-
-"I've analyzed starter template options for {{project_type}} projects.
-
-**Here's what I'll add to the document:**
-
-[Show the complete markdown content from step 8]
-
-**What would you like to do?**
-[A] Advanced Elicitation - Explore custom approaches or unconventional starters
-[P] Party Mode - Evaluate trade-offs from different perspectives
-[C] Continue - Save this decision and move to architectural decisions"
-
-### 10. Handle Menu Selection
-
-#### If 'A' (Advanced Elicitation):
-
-- Invoke the `bmad-advanced-elicitation` skill with current starter analysis
-- Process enhanced insights about starter options or custom approaches
-- Ask user: "Accept these changes to the starter template evaluation? (y/n)"
-- If yes: Update content, then return to A/P/C menu
-- If no: Keep original content, then return to A/P/C menu
-
-#### If 'P' (Party Mode):
-
-- Invoke the `bmad-party-mode` skill with starter evaluation context
-- Process collaborative insights about starter trade-offs
-- Ask user: "Accept these changes to the starter template evaluation? (y/n)"
-- If yes: Update content, then return to A/P/C menu
-- If no: Keep original content, then return to A/P/C menu
-
-#### If 'C' (Continue):
-
-- Append the final content to `{planning_artifacts}/architecture.md`
-- Update frontmatter: `stepsCompleted: [1, 2, 3]`
-- Load `./step-04-decisions.md`
-
-## APPEND TO DOCUMENT:
-
-When user selects 'C', append the content directly to the document using the structure from step 8.
-
-## SUCCESS METRICS:
-
-✅ Primary technology domain correctly identified from project context
-✅ Current, maintained starter templates researched and evaluated
-✅ All versions verified using web search, not hardcoded
-✅ Architectural implications of starter choice clearly documented
-✅ User provided with clear rationale for starter selection
-✅ A/P/C menu presented and handled correctly
-✅ Content properly appended to document when C selected
-
-## FAILURE MODES:
-
-❌ Not verifying current versions with web search
-❌ Ignoring UX requirements when evaluating starters
-❌ Not documenting what architectural decisions the starter makes
-❌ Failing to consider maintenance status of starter templates
-❌ Not providing clear rationale for starter selection
-❌ Not presenting A/P/C menu after content generation
-❌ **CRITICAL**: Reading only partial step file - leads to incomplete understanding and poor decisions
-❌ **CRITICAL**: Proceeding with 'C' without fully reading and understanding the next step file
-❌ **CRITICAL**: Making decisions without complete understanding of step requirements and protocols
-
-## NEXT STEP:
-
-After user selects 'C' and content is saved to document, load `./step-04-decisions.md` to begin making specific architectural decisions.
-
-Remember: Do NOT proceed to step-04 until user explicitly selects 'C' from the A/P/C menu and content is saved!
