How to Get Answers About BMad - Bmad Method

Use BMad's built-in help, source docs, or the community to get answers — from quickest to most thorough.

1. Ask BMad-Help

The fastest way to get answers. The bmad-help skill is available directly in your AI session and handles over 80% of questions — it inspects your project, sees what you've completed, and tells you what to do next.

bmad-help I have a SaaS idea and know all the features. Where do I start?
bmad-help What are my options for UX design?
bmad-help I'm stuck on the PRD workflow

:::tip You can also use /bmad-help or $bmad-help depending on your platform, but just bmad-help should work everywhere. :::

2. Go Deeper with Source

BMad-Help draws on your installed configuration. For questions about BMad's internals, history, or architecture — or if you're researching BMad before installing — point your AI at the source directly.

Clone or open the BMAD-METHOD repo and ask your AI about it. Any agent-capable tool (Claude Code, Cursor, Windsurf, etc.) can read the source and answer questions directly.

:::note[Example] Q: "Tell me the fastest way to build something with BMad"

A: Use Quick Flow: Run bmad-quick-dev — it clarifies your intent, plans, implements, reviews, and presents results in a single workflow, skipping the full planning phases. :::

Tips for better answers:

Be specific — "What does step 3 of the PRD workflow do?" beats "How does PRD work?"
Verify surprising claims — LLMs occasionally get things wrong. Check the source file or ask on Discord.

Not using an agent? Use the docs site

If your AI can't read local files (ChatGPT, Claude.ai, etc.), fetch llms-full.txt into your session — it's a single-file snapshot of the BMad documentation.

3. Ask Someone

If neither BMad-Help nor the source answered your question, you now have a much better question to ask.
