Workflow Status Check - Multi-Mode Service

The workflow execution engine is governed by: {project-root}/bmad/core/tasks/workflow.xml You MUST have already loaded and processed: {project-root}/bmad/bmm/workflows/workflow-status/workflow.yaml This workflow operates in multiple modes: interactive (default), validate, data, init-check, update Other workflows can call this as a service to avoid duplicating status logic

Check for {{mode}} parameter passed by calling workflow Default mode = "interactive" if not specified Continue to Step 1 for normal status check flow Jump to Step 10 for workflow validation service Jump to Step 20 for data extraction service Jump to Step 30 for simple init check Jump to Step 40 for status update service Search {output_folder}/ for file: bmm-workflow-status.yaml No workflow status found. To get started:

Load analyst agent and run: workflow-init

This will guide you through project setup and create your workflow path. Exit workflow

Continue to step 2 Read bmm-workflow-status.yaml Parse YAML file and extract metadata from comments and fields:

Parse these fields from YAML comments and metadata:

• project (from YAML field)
• project_type (from YAML field)
• project_level (from YAML field)
• field_type (from YAML field)
• workflow_path (from YAML field)

Parse workflow_status section:

• Extract all workflow entries with their statuses
• Identify completed workflows (status = file path)
• Identify pending workflows (status = required/optional/recommended/conditional)
• Identify skipped workflows (status = skipped)

Determine current state:

• Find first workflow with status != file path and != skipped
• This is the NEXT workflow to work on
• Look up agent and command from workflow path file

Load workflow path file based on workflow_path field Identify current phase from next workflow to be done Build list of completed, pending, and optional workflows ## 📊 Current Status

Project: {{project}} (Level {{project_level}} {{project_type}})

Path: {{workflow_path}}

Progress:

{{#each phases}} {{phase_name}}: {{#each workflows_in_phase}}

• {{workflow_name}}: {{status_display}} {{/each}} {{/each}}

🎯 Next Steps

Next Workflow: {{next_workflow_name}}

Agent: {{next_agent}}

Command: /bmad:bmm:workflows:{{next_workflow_id}}

{{#if optional_workflows_available}} Optional Workflows Available: {{#each optional_workflows}}

• {{workflow_name}} ({{agent}}) - {{status}} {{/each}} {{/if}}

What would you like to do?

1. Start next workflow - {{next_workflow_name}} ({{next_agent}} agent) {{#if optional_workflows_available}}
2. Run optional workflow - Choose from available options {{/if}}
3. View full status YAML - See complete status file
4. Update workflow status - Mark a workflow as completed or skipped
5. Exit - Return to agent

Your choice:

Handle user selection based on available options

Ready to run {{next_workflow_name}}!

Command: /bmad:bmm:workflows:{{next_workflow_id}}

Agent: Load {{next_agent}} agent first

{{#if next_agent !== current_agent}} Tip: Start a new chat and load the {{next_agent}} agent before running this workflow. {{/if}}

Which optional workflow? {{#each optional_workflows numbered}} {{number}}. {{workflow_name}} ({{agent}}) {{/each}}

Your choice: Display selected workflow command and agent

Display complete bmm-workflow-status.yaml file contents What would you like to update?

1. Mark a workflow as completed (provide file path)
2. Mark a workflow as skipped

Your choice:

Which workflow? (Enter workflow ID like 'prd' or 'create-architecture') File path created? (e.g., docs/prd.md) ONLY write the file path as the status value - no other text, notes, or metadata Update workflow_status in YAML file: {{workflow_id}}: {{file_path}} Save updated YAML file preserving ALL structure and comments ✅ Updated {{workflow_id}} to completed: {{file_path}} Which workflow to skip?
