### Issue 1
src/core-skills/bmad-brainstorming/SKILL.md:21
**Skill-local commands remain project-aware**
When `bmad-brainstorming` runs inside a brownfield uv or Pipenv project, its interactive and headless `brain.py` paths still use bare `uv run`, causing uv to discover and manage the project's existing `.venv`. Add `--no-project` to the skill-local invocations as well so the isolation fix covers every installed Python command.

| 1. **Resolve customization:** `uv run --no-project {project-root}/_bmad/scripts/resolve_customization.py --skill {skill-root} --project-root {project-root} --key workflow`. On failure, read `{skill-root}/customize.toml` directly and use defaults.

| 2. **Resolve core config:** `uv run --no-project {project-root}/_bmad/scripts/resolve_config.py --project-root {project-root}`. From the merged JSON's `core` table: greet with `{user_name}`, speak in `{communication_language}`, and resolve `{output_folder}`; `{date}` is today's date. | ||
| 3. **Detect intent and route.** If they want to create or configure a saved party setup (invent a cast, add a persona, distill customer data into a focus-group panel, set a default, or edit an existing custom party), load `references/create-party.md` and follow it. Otherwise run a party — continue below. | ||
| 4. **Resolve the roster:** `uv run {skill-root}/scripts/resolve_party.py --project-root {project-root} --skill {skill-root}`. It returns the active roster (`{workflow.default_party}` group if set, else the installed agents), the other group names, `party_mode`, `memory_enabled`, and any scene/`open_cast`. Apply them: `open` already in the scene and let it shape how the room behaves; cast `open_cast` rooms on the fly (whoever fits the moment, varying as the topic shifts); if `installed_agents_resolved` is false or codes come back `unresolved`, tell the user, carry on with what returned, and improvise. Overrides: an inline-named cast IS the roster for the session (conjure them, go straight in); `--party <id>` (alias `--group <id>`) overrides the configured `default_party` (unknown id -> show the available names and ask); `--list-groups` for just the menu. Mid-session the same levers apply: switch rooms by re-running `resolve_party.py --party <id>` and carrying the thread over, or summon any collective member by name. |

uv run --no-project official documentation project environment discovery
💡 Result:
When you use the --no-project flag with uv run, you explicitly instruct uv to skip its automatic project discovery mechanism [1][2]. Under normal circumstances, uv attempts to identify a project by searching for a pyproject.toml file, starting from the current working directory and walking up the file system tree [3]. Using --no-project affects the environment in the following ways: 1. Project Discovery Disabled: uv will not search for or associate the command with a project or workspace, even if one exists in the current or parent directories [1][2]. 2. Isolation: By skipping the project environment, the command will not include the project's dependencies [1]. 3. Interaction with Other Flags: Because no project is discovered, several project-specific flags—such as --frozen, --no-sync, --group, or --extra—will have no effect and may trigger warnings if used alongside --no-project [2]. 4. Alternative Dependency Resolution: Without project dependencies, the command will run in an isolated, ephemeral environment unless additional requirements are provided via flags like --with [1][4]. If a virtual environment is active, uv may still respect it unless configured otherwise [4]. This flag is primarily useful when you want to execute a script or command in isolation, ensuring it does not inherit or interact with the dependencies or configuration of a surrounding Python project [1].

When {project-root} is inside a uv project, plain uv run can discover that project and apply its environment to this standalone, stdlib-only resolver.
