BMAD-Enhanced extends the [BMAD Method](https://github.com/bmadhub/bmad) with domain-specialized agents. First batch of agents covers the [Innovation Vortex](https://unfix.com/innovation-vortex) pattern from [unFIX model](https://unfix.com/) by [Jurgen Appelo](https://jurgenappelo.com/). Seven specialized agents will guide teams through full product discovery validation before building anything.

Most teams skip validation and build on assumptions. BMAD-Enhanced guides you through seven discovery streams — from understanding your users to testing your riskiest assumptions — so you can make evidence-based decisions before committing to code. Each stream builds on the previous one's findings, and when gaps appear, the system routes you back to fill them.

Each stream builds on the previous one's output. Based on what you learn, the system guides you back to fill any remaining gaps — you don't have to follow a fixed path.

Every workflow ends with a **Vortex Compass** — evidence-driven routing that creates non-linear loops across all streams. Ten handoff contracts (HC1-HC10) ensure structured information flows between agents.
