🚀 Quick Start

Once configured, you can interact with BMad agents directly in Claude:

1. Activate the BMad Master

#bmad

The BMad Master will greet you and present a menu of options including tasks, workflows, and party mode.

2. Access Specific Agents Directly

Jump straight to any agent by name:

#bmad analyst        → Mary (Business Analyst)
#bmad architect      → Winston (System Architect)  
#bmad dev            → Amelia (Developer)
#bmad pm             → John (Product Manager)
#bmad sm             → Bob (Scrum Master)
#bmad tea            → Murat (Test Architect)
#bmad ux-expert      → Sally (UX Expert)

Each agent has their own specialized menu and workflows tailored to their expertise.

3. Start Party Mode (Multi-Agent Chat)

#bmad *party-mode

This activates all agent personas for a group discussion. Ask any question and watch multiple experts respond with their unique perspectives!

Example conversation:

You: "We're building a task management app. What should we consider?"

📋 John (PM): [Strategic product perspective]
🏗️ Winston (Architect): [Technical architecture insights]
🎨 Sally (UX Expert): [User experience considerations]
💻 Amelia (Developer): [Implementation approach]
