The BMAD Method for Context-Engineered AI Development (Guest Speaker)

Advanced AI users can get an agent to achieve something impressive in one try — then watch it struggle after a few changes. BMAD is an open-source framework that treats this as a context-engineering problem: four phases, each producing a document that becomes the verified context for the next, with specialized agents facilitating your thinking along the way. In this hands-off session we'll walk through the mental model, run a full project live in Claude Code — idea → PRD → UX → architecture → a shipped story in a fresh context window — and close with an honest look at where the method pays off and where its ceremony gets in the way. You'll leave with patterns you can adopt even if you never install it.
