BMad Builder is so much more than a skill builder. BMad Method modules support:

11-
BMad Builder (BMB) is a meta-module for BMad Method that helps you create your own agents and workflows. Whether you're building domain-specific expertise or automating repetitive development tasks, BMB guides you through:
11+
- **Agents** that transform your AI tool into exactly who you need to talk to — with memory that persists across sessions
12+
- **Workflows** that go far beyond simple tasks into truly guided, facilitated processes that can produce near-infinite steps and turns as needed
13+
- **Modules** that are entire ecosystems, not just skill packs — like the BMad Method module for agile AI-driven development. You can create simpler or vastly more complex modules for any entertainment or work purpose.
