This repository is an implementation of the BMAD Method specifically adapted for Claude Code's native features (Skills, Commands, Hooks, Memory, Files).
The methodology, workflow patterns, agent roles, and all BMAD concepts are the intellectual property of the BMAD Code Organization.
We have adapted and optimized the BMAD Method for:
- Token efficiency (70-85% optimization via helper pattern)
- Claude Code native integration (no external dependencies)
- Cross-platform support (Windows, Linux, macOS, WSL)
- Functional design (removed persona overhead for better performance)
