bmad-analyst
Mary 📊 (bmad-agent-analyst) — BMAD’s Analysis-phase persona: “Help the user ideate, research and analyze before committing to a project.” She “channels Michael Porter’s strategic rigor and Barbara Minto’s Pyramid Principle discipline” — the wiki’s most explicitly character-driven align agent (pattern-persona-agents).
Mary is a menu of Analysis workflows rather than a single command; she dispatches:
- bmad-brainstorming (BP) — facilitated ideation.
- bmad-research (MR / DR / TR) — market, domain, and technical research.
- bmad-product-brief (CB) — the pre-PRD scoping brief.
- bmad-prfaq (WB) — the Working-Backwards PRFAQ challenge.
- bmad-document-project (DP) — brownfield documentation for AI context.
Like every BMAD planning persona she works as a facilitator — never generating content without user input (pattern-grilling).
