Both review bots read the wider measure as having escaped the wide-screen block. It has not; it is deliberate, and the PR said otherwise, which is what made it look like an accident. Starlight clamps the measure to the pane it has, so 56rem is a ceiling rather than a width: 504px at 1152, 632px at 1280, 792px at 1440, and 896px only from 1599 up. Scoping it to the 100rem block would leave a 1440 laptop - the common case - on the old cramped 46rem, which is the thing this set out to fix. Checked 1152 through 1920 for the failure the bots were guarding against: no TOC overlap and no horizontal overflow at any width, because the min()/max() clamps Starlight added for custom measures hold.

BMAD Method Documentation Site
This directory contains the Astro + Starlight configuration for the BMAD Method documentation site.
Architecture
The documentation uses a symlink architecture to keep content in docs/ at the repo root while serving it through Astro:
bmad2/
├── docs/ # Content lives here (repo root)
│ ├── index.md
│ ├── tutorials/
│ ├── how-to/
│ ├── explanation/
│ └── reference/
└── docs-site/
├── astro.config.mjs # Astro + Starlight config
├── scripts/ # Build pipeline, link and sidebar validators
├── test/ # Node tests for the site and its scripts
├── src/
│ ├── content/
│ │ └── docs -> ../../../docs # Symlink to content
│ └── styles/
│ └── custom.css # Custom styling
└── public/ # Static assets
Development
cd docs-site
npm ci # Install (Node version in .nvmrc)
npm run dev # Start dev server
npm run build # Build for production (validates links first)
npm run preview # Preview production build
npm run validate-links # Check site-relative links in docs/
npm run validate-sidebar # Check sidebar.order frontmatter
npm run fix-links # Rewrite relative links to repo-relative (add --write)
npm run lint # ESLint over scripts/ and test/
npm run format:check # Prettier over scripts/ and test/
npm test # Run the site tests
The site is the only part of the repository that uses Node; everything else
runs on uv. tools/quality.py at the repository root runs these checks
together with the Python ones.
Platform Notes
Windows Symlink Support
The docs-site/src/content/docs symlink may not work correctly on Windows without Developer Mode enabled or administrator privileges.
To enable symlinks on Windows:
-
Enable Developer Mode (recommended):
- Settings → Update & Security → For developers → Developer Mode: On
- This allows creating symlinks without admin rights
-
Or use Git's symlink support:
git config core.symlinks trueThen re-clone the repository.
-
Or create a junction (alternative):
# Run as Administrator mklink /J docs-site\src\content\docs ..\..\..\docs
If symlinks don't work, you can copy the docs folder instead:
# Remove the symlink
rm docs-site/src/content/docs
# Copy the docs folder
cp -r docs docs-site/src/content/docs
Note: If copying, remember to keep the copy in sync with changes to docs/.
Build Output
The build pipeline (npm run build) produces:
