In the Ecosystem#
BMad operates at the methodology layer alongside spec-kit, but with a different philosophy:
- Spec Kit: “Specs before code” — prescriptive seven-step workflow
- BMad: “Expert collaboration over autopilot” — adaptive to project scale
Both are above the tool layer (claude-code) and below the organizational layer (paperclip).
