BMAD+ 0.23.0 ships 48 agents. An agent is a named persona with written instructions and a menu of capabilities; your AI coding tool loads it and you call it by name. The count breaks down into 15 entry points (the agents the installer places and the ones you normally address), 6 Dev Studio personas that the Dev Studio orchestrator routes to, and 27 Shield specialists that the Shield orchestrator routes to. Only the packs you install are present in your project: the list below is the full catalogue.

> **Note · Why the generated roster shows fewer lines** The roster in a project’s `AGENTS.md` lists 20 lines: the 14 entry points plus the six Dev Studio personas. The Dev Studio orchestrator has no line of its own there, and Shield appears once with its specialists behind it. This page counts every agent file, which gives 48.

## The 15 entry points

**Entry-point agents, by pack**

| Agent | Pack | Role | How to call |

| Nexus | [Core](https://bmad-plus.rochetta.fr/docs/packs/core/) | Orchestrator: sprints, autopilot, parallel supervision | `Nexus, <task>`, `autopilot`, `parallel` |

| SEO Scout | [SEO / GEO](https://bmad-plus.rochetta.fr/docs/packs/seo/) | Technical scanner: crawling, technical inspection, screenshots | `SEO Scout, <task>`, `SEO Scout, run a technical audit of <url>` |
| SEO Chief | [SEO / GEO](https://bmad-plus.rochetta.fr/docs/packs/seo/) | Strategist and reporter: scoring, plans, reports, benchmarks | `SEO Chief, <task>`, `SEO Chief, build a plan for <type>` |
| SEO Judge | [SEO / GEO](https://bmad-plus.rochetta.fr/docs/packs/seo/) | Content and AI analyst: E-E-A-T, structured data, GEO | `SEO Judge, <task>`, `SEO Judge, check the structured data of <url>` |
| Zecher | [Memory](https://bmad-plus.rochetta.fr/docs/packs/memory-pack/) | Memory archivist: consolidation, project scan, context recall, handoffs | `Zecher, <task>` |
| Dev Studio Orchestrator | [Dev Studio](https://bmad-plus.rochetta.fr/docs/packs/dev-studio/) | Routes a task to one of six personas and 38 workflows | `<persona>, use <workflow-id> …` |
| Backup Manager | [Backup](https://bmad-plus.rochetta.fr/docs/packs/backup/) | Backup and restore: timestamped ZIPs, rotation | `/backup`, `/backup-list`, `/backup-restore`, `/backup-clean` |
| Animated Website Creator | [Animated](https://bmad-plus.rochetta.fr/docs/packs/animated/) | Website builder: MP4 to scroll-driven page | `Animated Website Creator, <task>`, `animated website from hero.mp4` |
| Atelier | [Design](https://bmad-plus.rochetta.fr/docs/packs/design/) | Design engine: build, audit and redesign interfaces | `Atelier, <task>`, `/design read` |

Replace `<task>` with a plain sentence. The SEO agents answer to plain requests such as the ones in the table; their skill also routes `/seo` command words typed in the chat, which are not slash commands registered by your tool. Atelier understands `/design read` in the same way, and the Backup Manager works from the four commands in its menu. Every agent accepts its name followed by a request, a menu code or a menu line; the activation page explains how.

You do not call a specialist directly: ask [Shield](https://bmad-plus.rochetta.fr/docs/packs/shield/) with the framework or the situation, and the orchestrator routes the request. The Shield page describes what each specialist covers and the 11 GDPR and AI Act workflow agents that sit beside them.

<a id="example-agents-roster-who-should-i-ask"></a>
### Ask who should handle a task

Use it when you know the job but not the agent. The assistant answers from the roster in your project’s `AGENTS.md`.

**In your AI assistant**

```text
I want to document an existing repository, then check it against ISO 27001. Which agents should I call, in which order?
```

**What you should get** A sensible answer names Forge (Tech Writer role) or Huldah from Dev Studio for the documentation, then Shield, which routes to `iso27001-agent`, for the gap analysis, and tells you if any of them is not installed in this project.
