code-review workflow 2 x BUG - Missing checklist.md file and Step 5 (marks a story as "done") doesn't update sprint-status.yaml (V6 alpha.13)

[radaco99]

Describe the bug

Two issues found in the bmm module's code-review workflow:

Bug 1: Missing checklist.md file
The workflow.yaml references validation: "{installed_path}/checklist.md" but no such file exists in the bmm
module.

Bug 2: Step 5 doesn't update sprint-status.yaml
When code-review marks a story as "done", it only updates the story file - not the sprint-status.yaml tracking
file. This causes sprint tracking to become out of sync with actual story status.

Steps to Reproduce

Bug 1:

1. Install BMAD v6 alpha.13: npx bmad-method@alpha install
2. Select bmm module
3. Run code-review workflow
4. Workflow fails reading .bmad/bmm/workflows/4-implementation/code-review/checklist.md

Bug 2:

1. Complete a story via dev-story workflow
2. Run code-review workflow and approve (mark story as "done")
3. Check sprint-status.yaml → still shows old status (e.g., "review" instead of "done")

PR

Not currently working on a fix, but happy to contribute. Proposed fixes:

Bug 1: Copy checklist.md from bmgd module to bmm module:

• Source: src/modules/bmgd/workflows/4-production/code-review/checklist.md
• Target: src/modules/bmm/workflows/4-implementation/code-review/checklist.md

Bug 2: Update instructions.xml Step 5 to include sprint-status.yaml sync:

...existing actions...

<!-- CRITICAL: Keep sprint tracking in sync with story status -->
<action>Update {sprint_artifacts}/sprint-status.yaml to match new story status</action>
<action>Update the story line with:
  - New status (done, in-progress, etc.)
  - Code review approval note with date
  - Summary of fixes applied (if any)
</action>

Expected behavior

Bug 1: Workflow loads checklist.md successfully for validation.

Bug 2: When code-review marks a story "done", both the story file AND sprint-status.yaml are updated together.

Workarounds applied:

1. Manually created checklist.md by copying content from bmgd module
2. Updated instructions.xml Step 5 to sync sprint-status.yaml

@radaco99 Thanks for the heads up. See the PR above. It would be awful nice if you could install it (clone && npm run bmad:install) and confirm that it works for you.
