Overview
BMad Method installs a set of skills and agent workflows into your AI coding tool, covering clarification, planning, architecture, build, verification and retrospectives. Process depth scales with the change: small changes go straight to build, larger ones get planning documents that carry forward as context. Stable v6.12 installs via npx; the v7 preview alpha installs via the Skills CLI or Claude Code and Codex plugin marketplaces.
Who it is for: Solo devs and small teams using AI coding tools who want structured planning
Strengths
- Process sizes to the change: direct build for small edits, deeper planning for large work
- Works on new projects and on existing codebases
- Official modules for builder, test architecture, game dev and unattended epic runs
- Installs through npx, the Skills CLI, or Claude Code and Codex plugin marketplaces
Weaknesses
- V7 is preview alpha; README warns of breaking changes between updates
- V7 requires an AI coding tool that supports skills
- Needs uv and Python for setup and scripts, plus Node.js for the stable installer
- Detected license is NOASSERTION while the README states MIT
What it needs
- no GPU
- Needs uv, Node.js 20.12+, Python 3.10+, AI coding tool with skills support
