Brian 8b4da79161 refactor(core): group v6 shims and merge editorial review into bmad-review as lenses (#2608)
* refactor: group v6 deprecation shims into v6-shims folders

Move the nine backward-compatibility forwarders into dedicated v6-shims/
folders so the deprecation set is visible in one place and can later be
made an install-time include/exclude option before removal at the v7 cut.

core-skills/v6-shims/: the five review and editorial husks
bmm-skills/v6-shims/: the four PRD and architecture husks

Grouping only — no content changes. The installer discovers skills by a
recursive walk and installs each under its own name, so installed paths
and skill IDs are unchanged. Verified by diffing a full headless install
against main: identical .claude/skills listing and file content, and an
identical _bmad tree. The only delta is the path column in
skill-manifest.csv, which now records the new source location.

External module repos (gds, loop, tea, bmb, os-utils) and enterprise
users still invoke these IDs, so they continue to ship by default.

* refactor(core): merge editorial review into bmad-review as lenses

All reviews are reviews. bmad-editorial-review's two passes become two
more bmad-review lenses, leaving one lens runtime instead of two skills
with overlapping trigger descriptions — "review this document" matched
both before, so which one ran was close to arbitrary.

Lenses now declare what they apply to. applies_to is "code", "docs", or
"any", and is the first filter on a default review; `when` still refines
it in prose. adversarial stays "any" — it is a stance, not a subject-
matter method, and is the lens a code/doc skill split could not have
placed. edge-case-hunter's `when` was "always", which is why it would
have fired on prose; it now gates on having a behavioral surface.

A lens may also declare `after`, naming a lens it builds on: prose runs
on top of the structure findings, as it always has. The runner announces
the plan, runs the independent lenses (in parallel via subagents when
available), then the dependent ones on their results.

Lens wording is unchanged. The three code lens files are byte-identical;
the editorial passes moved verbatim into references/lens-structure.md,
references/lens-prose.md, and references/editorial-common.md, which
carries what both share — the content-sacrosanct rule, style guide
handling, reader calibration, and the findings table. That material used
to load unconditionally; as lenses it loads just-in-time, so a code
review no longer pays for it.

bmad-editorial-review becomes the sixth v6 shim, forwarding with the
structure and prose lenses named. It keeps its customize.toml so existing
team and user overrides still resolve, and forwards them as pre-resolved
values. The four other husks now name bmad-review and their lens
explicitly. Each still pins its own legacy output contract.

bmm's four document skills point doc_standards at the merged skill with
named lenses. Docs updated across all five locales.

Core is 7 skills. A headless install produces the same 47-skill set as
main, with all six shims resolving.

* fix(core): honor forwarded customization and de-hardcode the lens set

Follow-up to the editorial/review merge, from review of #2608.

Contract fixes:
- bmad-review gains a Forwarded activation clause matching bmad-prd and
  bmad-architecture, so the bmad-editorial-review shim's pre-resolved fields
  are honored instead of being silently overwritten by the skill's own
  customize.toml. Existing bmad-editorial-review overrides resolve again.
- The announce step is skipped when a caller pinned an exact output contract,
  and a forwarder's contract now governs everything emitted rather than the
  findings block alone. The edge-case (raw JSON) and verification-gap (one
  exact line) forwarders no longer get a prose line prepended.

Lens set is no longer hardcoded:
- The description and body intro present the shipped lenses as examples and
  point at whatever {workflow.lenses} resolves to. Docs carry a matching note
  in all five locales.

Also:
- Document the `lenses=` directive form in Inputs and in the four bmm
  doc_standards comments that use it.
- module-help.csv review row rewritten to the house "Use to..." convention,
  naming the reviewable content types and the situations that should trigger
  a suggestion.
- Shim customize.toml trimmed to a lean legacy-key surface with empty
  defaults, so unset keys fall through to bmad-review and project-context.md
  is no longer loaded twice.
- Redundant `when` clauses dropped where applies_to already encodes the rule.
- Core skill count corrected to seven/four and the edge-case applies_to cell
  fixed to match its actual value, across all five locales.

Brian c23f23400d feat: streamline core to an 8-skill set with merged review and editorial skills (#2603)
* feat: streamline core to a 5-skill kernel with standalone skill modules

Core installs 14 -> 5 catalog-visible skills; atoms exit to standalone
modules; installer gains real dependency resolution; zero npm deps.

- Merge bmad-editorial-review-prose/-structure into bmad-editorial-review
  (structure models JIT-loaded, new customize.toml)
- Merge bmad-review-adversarial-general/-edge-case-hunter/-verification-gap
  into bmad-review as selectable lenses; hidden husk-forwarders remain at
  the old IDs (no catalog rows) so gds/loop/os-utils keep working
- Move bmad-brainstorming, bmad-party-mode, bmad-forge-idea out of core to
  src/standalone-skills/ as single-skill modules; add bmad-analysis bundle
  module (curated dependency list over the atoms)
- Move bmad-spec into bmm (2-plan-workflows)
- Modernize bmad-advanced-elicitation: uv run, customize.toml, methods
  pick offloaded to scripts/pick_methods.py (with tests)
- Delete bmad-index-docs, bmad-shard-doc (removes the tree's only external
  npm dependency), and the four deprecation shims (bmad-create-prd,
  bmad-edit-prd, bmad-validate-prd, bmad-create-architecture); all added
  to removals.txt
- Installer: activate the dependencies field (recursive union into
  selectedModules, cycle-guarded, warn on unknown), config-driven picker
  visibility; core stays force-installed
- bmm module.yaml declares deps on the three atoms
- Docs updated across all locales; new reference/standalone-skills.md;
  shard-doc how-tos removed

* Restore original critical wording lost in the review/editorial merges

The merges into bmad-review and bmad-editorial-review were meant to keep
the source skills' critical wording behind progressive disclosure, not
paraphrase it away. Restore what was lost:

- lens-adversarial: clueless-weasel framing, extreme-skepticism wording,
  the at-least-ten-issues quota, and zero-findings-is-suspicious (the
  merge had inverted this to zero-is-valid)
- bmad-review SKILL: zero-findings stance is now per-lens
- lens-edge-case: mandatory exact-order step enforcement
- lens-verification-gap: exact 'No verification gaps found.' clean line
- editorial-review: full Human/LLM reader principles restored to new
  references/reader-principles.md; structure-pass HIGH-VALUE DENSITY
  role, front-load-value, anti-patterns, pacing check, and length_target
  assessment; prose-pass role sentence, analyze-style-first step, and
  merge-overlapping-fixes rule; output summary block and min-3-words HALT

* feat(installer): promote bmad-analysis bundle to src/bmad-analysis-skills

Move the bmad-analysis bundle module out of src/standalone-skills/ into its
own src/bmad-analysis-skills root, teach the installer to resolve it there
(getModulePath, official-modules listing, isBuiltInModule helper), and
update the marketplace manifest and standalone-skills docs to match.

* refactor(bmad-review): rename edge-case lens to edge-case-hunter

Rename the lens code and reference file (lens-edge-case.md ->
lens-edge-case-hunter.md), add explicit when = "always" to the shipped
lenses, and tighten the lens-selection wording in SKILL.md.

* feat(bmad-editorial-review): configurable style guide + analysis-driven rework

Apply the workflow-builder analysis recommendations:

- Make the baseline style guide configurable: style_guide in customize.toml
  now IS the baseline (default "Microsoft Writing Style Guide") instead of
  an empty override slot; SKILL.md no longer hardcodes the guide.
- Inline reader-principles.md into SKILL.md and delete the reference (it
  loaded on every run and was half-duplicated inline).
- Complete the customization surface: activation_steps_prepend/append,
  persistent_facts (project-context glob), on_complete, and a
  review_output_path scalar split out of output_preferences; add a
  file:-load fallback convention.
- Ground word metrics: new scripts/word_metrics.py (stdlib, PEP 723, tests)
  emits total/per-section word counts so impact estimates and the reduction
  summary use exact numbers.
- Cross-pass dedup: prose pass skips CUT-tagged passages and re-attaches
  fixes in MERGE'd ones; output ranks by impact with a long-tail rollup.
- Polish: HALT threshold replaced with plain outcome, duplicate LLM-reader
  bullets merged, all-caps lowered, literal Overview heading added.

* fix(installer): stop cache-refresh git commands from escaping to the parent repo

Two compounding bugs let a pre-commit test run shallow-fetch and hard-reset
the developer's own repository:

1. Git spawns in custom-module-manager and external-manager inherited the
   hook environment. Git exports GIT_DIR (absolute, in worktree checkouts)
   into pre-commit hooks; a child git then targets the hook's repo regardless
   of cwd, and treats its cwd — the module cache dir — as the work tree. The
   cache refresh's 'git fetch --depth 1' + 'git reset --hard origin/main'
   therefore shallowed the shared .bare and moved the checked-out branch.
   New git-env.js strips repo-targeting GIT_* vars from every git spawn in
   both managers, including calls that previously inherited process.env
   implicitly.

2. Test suite 51 (quickUpdate dependency expansion) ran the real
   CustomModuleManager lookup, which scans ~/.bmad/cache/custom-modules and
   network-refreshes every cached clone — real user state. The suite now
   stubs findModuleSourceByCode.

Verified by rerunning the suite with GIT_DIR pointed at the repo and a PATH
shim blocking fetch/reset/clone: 432 passing, zero blocked calls.

* De-scope standalone-skills mechanism: atoms return to core, shims reinstated

Shrink the PR to its heart — the skill merges — and defer the module
mechanics to a follow-up where all skills become module-driven:

- bmad-brainstorming, bmad-party-mode, bmad-forge-idea move back to
  src/core-skills/ as ordinary core skills with their catalog rows
  restored; src/standalone-skills/ and the bmad-analysis bundle module
  are removed
- Installer reverted to main: standalone discovery, hidden-module
  filtering, dependency resolution, manifest changes (test suites 49-51
  removed with the code); the cache-refresh git fix is retained
- The four bmm deprecation shims (create/edit/validate-prd,
  create-architecture) are reinstated so enterprise installs that
  invoke the old IDs or carry _bmad/custom overrides keep working;
  descriptions trimmed to the short husk style; their removals.txt
  entries dropped (removal rides the v7 cut as their frontmatter
  promises)
- marketplace.json keeps the five plugin entries with atom paths
  pointing at src/core-skills/
- Docs (en/cs/fr/vi/zh) reframe the three skills as core thinking
  skills; standalone-skills.md reference page removed

* Fix all findings from the max-effort adversarial review

Correctness:
- Finish the edge-case -> edge-case-hunter lens rename at every caller:
  the forwarder husk, the code-review/dev-auto/quick-dev review layers,
  the renderer test assertion, and the stale example path in
  bmad-review/SKILL.md
- marketplace.json: ship the five core kernel skills with
  bmad-method-lifecycle so its skills' bmad-review/bmad-editorial-review/
  bmad-help/bmad-advanced-elicitation invocations resolve in a
  marketplace install
- pick_methods.py / word_metrics.py: force UTF-8 stdout (Windows locale
  code pages crashed on the catalog's arrows and CJK headings)
- word_metrics.py: pair fences CommonMark-style so 4-backtick fences can
  embed 3-backtick examples without corrupting sections; count CJK
  characters as words
- pick_methods.py: validate --extra entries are JSON objects (was an
  uncaught AttributeError); read catalogs with utf-8-sig (BOM'd CSVs
  silently blanked every num)
- bmad-spec: activation now resolves {output_folder} (which the
  Workspace uses) instead of the unused {planning_artifacts}; drop the
  stale core-only-installs comment
- Editorial husks: pin the legacy output contracts (three-column table /
  Document Summary report and exact empty-state lines) like the review
  husks do
- PRD shims: advertise the real bmad-prd customize keys
  (validation_checklist_template, prd_output_path, run_folder_pattern,
  finalize_reviewers) instead of three that don't exist
- bmad-prd: add the forwarded-activation clause its shims rely on
  (ported from bmad-architecture)
- Locale workflow-maps (fr/cs/vi/zh): add the bmad-spec Phase-2 row the
  English map gained, which every locale's core-tools note points at
- git-env.js: also strip GIT_CONFIG_PARAMETERS and the
  GIT_CONFIG_COUNT/KEY_n/VALUE_n family; pass gitEnv() to the three npm
  install spawns whose transitive git calls inherited hook vars

Consistency:
- brain.py --extra overlay now replaces-by-name like pick_methods.py
  (same customize.toml additional_* semantics across sibling skills),
  with a regression test

* Fix prettier formatting in marketplace.json

* Apply valid CodeRabbit findings

- brain.py: catch malformed --extra overlays (bad JSON, non-array root,
  non-object entries) into the clean error path instead of a raw
  traceback, with a regression test; read catalogs and overlays with
  utf-8-sig; normalize ALL CSV fields (required ones were unstripped and
  could arrive as None from short rows)
- brain-selector: clamp the random-technique count to what the pool can
  supply so the Total badge matches the actual draw (template +
  regenerated assets/brain-selector.html)
- bmad-editorial-review: word_metrics command now uses the explicit
  {skill-root}/ prefix
- resolve_party.py / resolve_personas.py: custom member overrides now
  start from the installed entry, so omitted fields (icon, title,
  description, module, team) survive; non-string member tokens land in
  unresolved instead of raising TypeError; party's member loop gains the
  isinstance guards its personas twin already had
- bmad-brainstorming: fix the SKILL.md claim that headless is the only
  context for self-generated ideas (autonomous mode is interactive);
  autonomous mode honors user-supplied techniques before self-selecting
- Docs: drop duplicate 'only' in the spec template; align zh-cn
  forge-idea's bmad-review description with the English wording

* Create only the output folder at install time

bmm no longer pre-creates planning_artifacts, implementation_artifacts,
and project_knowledge — the last of which put an empty docs/ at every
project root. Skills create those lazily on first write. core now
declares {output_folder} in its directories block, which was previously
created only as a side effect of the artifact folders nesting under it.

Brian cd8ac7e9aa bmm: standardize memlog usage across skills (#2483)
* bmm: standardize memlog usage across skills

- Point all memlog writes at the canonical core script (uv {project-root}/_bmad/scripts/memlog.py) in bmad-spec, bmad-brainstorming, and bmad-architecture; drop the python3/{skill-root} invocations and remove the bundled memlog.py copy from bmad-brainstorming.
- Migrate bmad-prd, bmad-ux, and bmad-product-brief off the hand-authored decision-log.md onto the memlog standard: .memlog.md written only via memlog.py (init/append), distilled-toward not authored, no lifecycle status; rename the headless decision_log JSON key to memlog.
- Fix bmad-spec capability rendering: nested bullets so intent/success break onto their own lines instead of collapsing into one blob.
- Update EN + FR docs (getting-started, workflow-map, core-tools) to reference .memlog.md.
- Remove the bmad-product-brief eval suite (to be replaced with a new format).

* bmm: invoke scripts with 'uv run' instead of python3/bare uv

Bare 'uv {path}.py' does not execute (uv treats the path as a subcommand and errors); only 'uv run {path}' runs the script. Fixes the broken bare-uv memlog form shipped earlier in this branch and converts python3 script calls to 'uv run' across the 6 touched skills (memlog.py, resolve_customization.py, brain.py, lint_spine.py). Inline 'python3 -c' one-liners and .py shebangs are left as-is.

* bmm: address PR review on memlog standardization

- Delete orphaned bmad-brainstorming/scripts/tests/test_memlog.py: it
  imported the bundled memlog.py removed in this PR (ModuleNotFoundError on
  collection) and its unique tests asserted the now-removed status-lifecycle
  behavior. The canonical src/scripts/tests/test_memlog.py is the corrected
  superset, so no coverage is lost.
- Make runnable memlog command examples self-contained with the full
  'uv run {project-root}/_bmad/scripts/memlog.py ... --workspace {doc_workspace}'
  form across bmad-brainstorming (converge/finalize/headless), bmad-prd, and
  bmad-ux. Terse checklist back-references left short by design.
- bmad-product-brief Update: init .memlog.md if missing (legacy/pre-standard
  briefs), matching bmad-prd and bmad-ux; fix the --type override invocation.

- Guillemets: ASCII "..." → « … » with narrow no-break space (U+202F) on both sides
- Narrow no-break space (U+202F): before ; ? ! and after « / before »
- No-break space (U+00A0): before : in French prose

bmad-investigate skill, but the French docs that enumerate triggers
and agent capabilities were not updated.

- agents.md: add IN trigger and Enquête de code to Amelia's row
- named-agents.md: add Enquête de code to Amelia's capabilities

* docs(fr): fix agent skill identifiers to use bmad-agent-* prefix

The agent skill identifiers in agents.md and commands.md were missing
the -agent- segment of the namespace (e.g. bmad-pm instead of
bmad-agent-pm). All agent launchers use the bmad-agent-* naming
convention since the installer generates skill directories under that
prefix.

- agents.md: fix bmad-dev, bmad-analyst, bmad-pm, bmad-architect,
  bmad-ux-designer, bmad-tech-writer
- commands.md: fix bmad-pm, bmad-architect

* docs(fr): rename bmad-create-ux-design to bmad-ux (#2413)

Apply ee47e30c (refactor(bmad-ux): spine-based UX skill) to French docs.
Rename skill bmad-create-ux-design → bmad-ux and update outputs
from ux-spec.md to DESIGN.md + EXPERIENCE.md.

* docs(fr): translate bmad-spec section

French translation of the bmad-spec section introduced in aa6dece
(feat(bmad-spec): introduce Spec kernel distiller skill (#2417)).

* docs(fr): improve core-tools locution, phrasing and typography

Broader pass across all sections of core-tools.md for more idiomatic
French: consistent section headers (À utiliser quand, Fonctionnement),
natural verb choices, fluid sentence construction and corrected
punctuation.

* docs(fr): apply French typography and table formatting pass

Continuation of 27002100. Systematic pass across all French documentation
assisted by an automated French typography linter:
- Replace regular space with NBSP (U+00A0) before colons per French
  typographic convention
- Align table separator rows to match column widths
- Fix thousands separator in install-bmad.md (5000 → 5 000)
- Correct glossary example code block rendering in _STYLE_GUIDE.md

* docs(fr): fix missing french typography on roadmap.mdx

* docs(fr): translate web-bundles explanation and how-to

French translation of:
- docs/explanation/web-bundles.md
- docs/how-to/use-web-bundles.md
Reference commits: 7729ad46, d659a03d, 3bc2ad30

* docs(fr): refresh skill metadata references

Fixes #2437 for French.

- agents.md: update PM triggers CP/VP/EP → PRD, remove stale US trigger
  from Technical Writer, align PRD description to create/update/validate
- commands.md: fix Cursor/Windsurf skill paths to .agents/skills/,

Brian aa6dece05d feat(bmad-spec): introduce Spec kernel distiller skill (#2417)
* feat(bmad-spec): add Spec kernel distiller skill

New 2-plan-workflows skill that distills any intent input (brain dump,
PRD, transcript, brief) into a spec.md carrying the five-field kernel:
Problem, Capabilities, Constraints, Non-goals, Success signal. Headless
callers receive JSON; interactive runs close conversationally with the
spec path and gap-coverage invitations.

Includes:
- SKILL.md with activation contract and conventions
- customize.toml exposing template path, output path, run-folder pattern
- assets/spec-template.md (five-field skeleton)
- assets/headless-schemas.md (JSON IO contracts)

* remove brain-dump fallback config from bmad-spec customize.toml

* refactor(bmad-spec): companions+sources model, routing tilt, flat output path

- Collapse `related:` into `companions:`; companion paths may point inside the spec folder (spec-authored) or outside it (adopted from an upstream skill), distinguished implicitly by path
- `sources:` reserved for fully-absorbed inputs; downstream does NOT read these
- Soften mutation contract: bmad-spec owns SPEC.md and spec-authored companions; adopted companions belong to their originating skill
- Add "when to spawn a companion" tilt: multi-item catalogs, tables, diagrams (always), editorial voice rules; sub-bullets in a kernel field signal it has outgrown the kernel
- Fix Spec Law rule 7 and Pass 2: load-bearing content lands in SPEC.md or a companion, not the decision log (the log records wrapper-drops only)
- Flatten output path to `{planning_artifacts}/specs/spec-{slug}-{date}/`, mirroring `prds/` and `ux-designs/`; drop `spec_folder_name` (no longer used)
- Extract Load-bearing definition into its own section above Spec Law

* chore(core): retire bmad-distillator, promote bmad-spec to core

- Delete bmad-distillator/ and all registry + doc references (superseded by bmad-spec; no skill or workflow in any BMad module invoked it)
- Add bmad-distillator to removals.txt so installer cleans it from existing IDE skill directories on update
- Move bmad-spec from bmm-skills/2-plan-workflows/ to core-skills/ (universal scope: game design, research hypotheses, editorial briefs, policy, business plans, not just software)
- Register bmad-spec in core module-help.csv and bmad-pro-skills marketplace plugin
- Drop bmad-distillator section from core-tools.md (en, vi-vn, cs, fr, zh-cn) and vi-vn dev guide; renumber subsequent sections

* refactor(bmad-spec): add lean-prose discipline + generalize help text

- Add Spec Law rule 8: lean prose. Every sentence carries load-bearing content; cut decoration, hedges, backstory, throat-clearing. Applies to SPEC.md, companions, and decision log.
- Update Self-Validate Pass 1 to enforce rules 1-6 and 8 (rule 7 stays in Pass 2)
- Prime the operation up-front: write lean from the first pass, every sentence must earn its place
- Note in Companions section that companions follow the same lean discipline
- Generalize core module-help.csv entry: domain-agnostic framing (software, game design, research, editorial, policy, business, anything intent-bearing); call out succinct, no-fluff and "locks the WHAT before the HOW" as the value props

* fix(bmad-spec): address PR review findings (CodeRabbit + Augment)

- headless-schemas.md: rewrite spec_path examples to point at the spec folder (not a file), rename source_artifact to sources[] array, add companions[] array, update verdict from "six rules" to "eight rules", disambiguate reason requirement (only when status=blocked)
- SKILL.md activation: fix config path from {project-root}/_bmad/config.yaml to {project-root}/_bmad/core/config.yaml (matches other BMM skills)
- customize.toml + SKILL.md Workspace: drop {date} from default run_folder_pattern (spec-{slug}); same slug = same folder = trivial in-place update, no glob-and-pick-most-recent needed. Override available for users who want dated history.
- spec-template.md: rename "## Success signals" (plural) to "## Success signal" (singular) to match SKILL.md kernel naming
- SKILL.md Frontmatter conventions: fix adopted-companion example path from _bmad-output/ux-designs/foo-ux/DESIGN.md to ../../ux-designs/ux-foo-bar-2026-05-23/DESIGN.md (matches actual flat-output convention)
- SKILL.md Spec Law: fix double-period typo in rule 2 ((stack, conventions)..)
- SKILL.md Overview: fix awkward "bloat with expansive line item details the kernel" phrasing; drop software-flavored downstream consumer list since bmad-spec is now a core skill serving any domain

* fix(bmad-spec): drop {planning_artifacts} dependency; output to {output_folder}/specs

bmad-spec is a core skill but its default path used {planning_artifacts}, a bmm-module variable. Core-only installs (no bmm) would fail at activation when the resolver tried to expand the path.

Land specs directly under {output_folder}/specs/spec-{slug}/ instead. Works in any install regardless of installed modules, and aligns with the long-term BMad direction of grouping artifacts as siblings under {output_folder}/<type>/ rather than nested under planning vs implementation parents.

In bmm installs, adopted-companion paths from spec to UX/PRD pick up one extra .. (e.g., ../planning-artifacts/ux-designs/<run>/DESIGN.md) since the spec folder is now one level up from planning-artifacts. Examples in SKILL.md and headless-schemas.md updated. module-help.csv output-location updated and stale -{date} fragment removed.

* docs(bmad-spec): add reference docs, trim headless schema, tighten defaults

- Add full bmad-spec entry to docs/reference/core-tools.md and table-row
  stubs to cs/fr/vi-vn/zh-cn (full translation pending).
- Strip headless-schemas.md to a minimal {status, files} success response
  and {status, error_code, reason} blocked response. Drop spec_path,
  capabilities, verdict, decision_log_path — all derivable from the files
  themselves.
- Narrow customize.toml persistent_facts default from recursive glob to
  single {project-root}/project-context.md; document override path.
- Drop unused {doc_workspace} convention line from SKILL.md.
- Clarify Self-Validate verdict handling for interactive vs headless.
- Document missing_slug error code in SKILL.md + headless schema.

Emmanuel Atsé 1a6f8d52bc docs: i18n: Add complete French translation (#2073)
* docs: i18n(fr): add complete French translation

Add comprehensive French (fr-FR) translation covering all documentation
sections and website configuration:

- Core docs, How-to guides, Explanations, References
- Website config: astro.config.mjs locale setup, fr-FR.json i18n strings
- Assets: French workflow map diagram and quick-dev diagram

Terminology standardized on "Quick Dev" (replacing legacy "Quick Flow").

Remove all references to deleted phase-4 agent personas from French

  quick-flow-solo-dev/Barry, bmad-master
- Replace deleted agent skill invocations with equivalent workflow skills
  (bmad-dev-story, bmad-qa-generate-e2e-tests, bmad-quick-dev, etc.)
- Depersonalize QA references ("Quinn" → "QA Intégré" / "Workflow QA")
- Simplify workflow invocation instructions (remove "invoke agent" pattern)
- Fix upgrade-to-v6.md SM/Scrum Master references

* docs(fr): fix typos
