Three new commands for managing isolated GSD workspaces:
- /gsd:new-workspace — create workspace with repo worktrees/clones
- /gsd:list-workspaces — scan ~/gsd-workspaces/ for active workspaces
- /gsd:remove-workspace — clean up workspace and git worktrees
Supports both multi-repo orchestration (subset of repos from a parent
directory) and feature branch isolation (worktree of current repo with
independent .planning/).
Includes init functions, command routing, workflows, 24 tests, and
user documentation.
Closes#1241

Wire the --reviews flag through the full stack so plan-phase can
replan incorporating cross-AI review feedback from REVIEWS.md:
- core.cjs: add has_reviews detection in searchPhaseInDir
- init.cjs: wire has_reviews and reviews_path through all init functions
- plan-phase.md command: add --reviews to argument-hint and flags
- plan-phase.md workflow: add step 2.5 validation, skip research,
skip existing plans prompt, pass reviews_path to planner
- gsd-planner.md: add reviews_mode section for consuming review feedback
- COMMANDS.md: add --reviews and missing flags to docs
Closes the gap where --reviews was referenced in 6 places (review
workflow, review command, help workflow, COMMANDS.md, FEATURES.md)
but never implemented.

ensureConfigFile(): keep our refactored version that delegates to
buildNewProjectConfig({}) instead of upstream's duplicated logic.
buildNewProjectConfig(): add firecrawl and exa_search API key
detection alongside existing brave_search, matching upstream's
new integrations.
Decisions in CONTEXT.md are now numbered (D-01, D-02, etc.) so
downstream agents can reference them and the plan-checker can verify
100% coverage.
Changes:
- templates/context.md: Decisions use **D-XX:** prefix format
- workflows/discuss-phase.md: write_context step numbers decisions
- agents/gsd-planner.md: Self-check verifies decision ID references
in task actions; tasks reference D-XX IDs for traceability
- agents/gsd-plan-checker.md: Dimension 7 (Context Compliance)
extracts D-XX IDs and verifies every decision has a task
The stats workflow was the only file using $GSD_TOOLS, which is never
defined anywhere. This caused the LLM to improvise the path at runtime,
producing the wrong directory (tools/) and extension (.mjs) instead of
the correct bin/gsd-tools.cjs used by all other workflows.

Adds an optional advisor mode to discuss-phase that provides research-backed
comparison tables before asking users to make decisions. Activates when
USER-PROFILE.md exists, degrades gracefully otherwise.
New agent: gsd-advisor-researcher -- spawned in parallel per gray area,
returns structured 5-column comparison tables calibrated to the user vendor
philosophy preference (full_maturity/standard/minimal_decisive).
Workflow changes (discuss-phase.md):
- Advisor mode detection in analyze_phase step
- New advisor_research step spawns parallel research agents
- Table-first discussion flow in discuss_areas when advisor mode active
- Standard conversational flow unchanged when advisor mode inactive
VALID_CONFIG_KEYS: merge our additions (workflow.auto_advance,
workflow.node_repair, workflow.node_repair_budget, hooks.context_warnings)
with upstream's additions (workflow.text_mode, git.quick_branch_template).
ensureConfigFile(): keep our refactored version that delegates to
buildNewProjectConfig({}) instead of upstream's duplicated logic.
buildNewProjectConfig(): add git.quick_branch_template: null and
workflow.text_mode: false to match upstream's new keys.
new-project.md: integrate upstream's Step 5.1 Sub-Repo Detection
after our commit block; drop upstream's duplicate Note (ours at
line 493 is more detailed).
The workflow set commit_docs to false for multi-repo workspaces then
immediately ran gsd-tools commit on config.json, which would be
skipped. Replace with a note that config changes are local-only.

- findProjectRoot: use isInsideGitRepo() to walk up and find .git in
ancestor dirs, fixing nested paths like backend/src/modules/
- Add sub_repos to cmdInitExecutePhase output so execute-plan.md and
gsd-executor.md can route commits correctly
- Align new-project.md sub-repo detection to maxdepth 1 matching
detectSubRepos() behavior
- Add 3 nested path tests for .git heuristic, sub_repos, and multiRepo

Add support for workspaces with multiple independent git repositories.
When configured, GSD routes commits to the correct sub-repo and ensures
.planning/ stays at the project root.
Core features:
- detectSubRepos(): scans child directories for .git to discover repos
- findProjectRoot(): walks up from CWD to find the project root that
owns .planning/, preventing orphaned .planning/ in sub-repos
- loadConfig auto-syncs sub_repos when repos are added or removed
- Migrates legacy "multiRepo: true" to sub_repos array automatically
- All init commands include project_root in output
- cmdCommitToSubrepo: groups files by sub-repo prefix, commits independently
Zero impact on single-repo workflows — sub_repos defaults to empty array.

- Generate {phase_num}-DISCUSSION-LOG.md alongside CONTEXT.md during
discuss-phase sessions
- Log captures all options presented per gray area (not just the
selected one), user's choice, notes, Claude's discretion items,
and deferred ideas
- File is explicitly marked as audit-only — not for agent consumption
- Add discussion-log.md template with format specification
- Track Q&A data accumulation instruction in discuss_areas step
- Commit discussion log alongside CONTEXT.md in same git commit
- Add regression tests for workflow reference and template existence
- Add workflow.text_mode config option (default: false) that replaces
AskUserQuestion TUI menus with plain-text numbered lists
- Document --text flag and config-set workflow.text_mode true as the
fix for /rc remote sessions where the Claude App cannot forward TUI
menu selections
- Update discuss-phase.md with text mode parsing and answer_validation
fallback documentation
- Add text_mode to loadConfig defaults and VALID_CONFIG_KEYS
- Add regression tests for config-set and loadConfig
Prevent silent loss of UAT/verification items when projects advance.
Surfaces outstanding items across all prior phases so nothing is forgotten.
New command:
- /gsd:audit-uat — cross-phase audit with categorized report and test plan
New capabilities:
- Cross-phase health check in /gsd:progress (Step 1.6)
- status: partial for incomplete UAT sessions
- result: blocked with blocked_by tag for dependency-gated tests
- human_needed items persisted as trackable HUMAN-UAT.md files
- Phase completion and transition warnings for verification debt
Files: 4 new, 14 modified (9 feature + 5 docs)

Three commands reimplemented from positively-received community PRs:
1. /gsd:review (#925) — Cross-AI peer review
Invoke external AI CLIs (Gemini, Claude, Codex) to independently
review phase plans. Produces REVIEWS.md with per-reviewer feedback
and consensus summary. Feed back into planning via --reviews flag.
Multiple users praised the adversarial review concept.
2. /gsd:plant-seed (#456) — Forward-looking idea capture
Capture ideas with trigger conditions that auto-surface during
/gsd:new-milestone. Seeds preserve WHY, WHEN to surface, and
breadcrumbs to related code. Better than deferred items because
triggers are checked, not forgotten.
3. /gsd:pr-branch (#470) — Clean PR branches
Create a branch for pull requests by filtering out .planning/
commits. Classifies commits as code-only, planning-only, or mixed,
then cherry-picks only code changes. Reviewers see clean diffs.
All three are standalone command+workflow additions with no core code
changes. Help workflow updated. Test skill counts updated.
797/797 tests pass.
Adds workflow.research_questions config toggle (default: false) that
enables web research before asking questions during /gsd:new-project
and /gsd:discuss-phase.
When enabled:
- discuss-phase: searches best practices for each gray area before
presenting questions, showing 2-3 bullet points of findings
- new-project: researches the user's described domain before asking
follow-up questions, weaving findings into the conversation
Added to /gsd:settings as a toggle ('Research Qs' section).
Closes#1186
New opt-in PreToolUse hook that warns when Claude edits files outside
a GSD workflow context (no active /gsd: command or subagent).
Soft guard — advises, does not block. The edit proceeds but Claude
sees a reminder to use /gsd:fast or /gsd:quick for state tracking.
Enable: set hooks.workflow_guard: true in .planning/config.json
Default: disabled (false)
Allows without warning:
- .planning/ files (GSD state management)
- Config files (.gitignore, .env, CLAUDE.md, settings.json)
- Subagent contexts (executor, planner, etc.)
Includes 3s stdin timeout guard and silent fail-safe.
Closes#678
New lightweight command for tasks too small to justify planning overhead:
typo fixes, config changes, forgotten commits, simple additions.
- Runs inline in current context (no subagent spawn)
- No PLAN.md or SUMMARY.md generated
- Scope guard: redirects to /gsd:quick if task needs >3 file edits
- Atomic commit with conventional commit format
- Logs to STATE.md quick tasks table if present
Complements /gsd:quick (which spawns planner+executor) for cases where
the planning overhead exceeds the actual work.
Closes#609
Windows users experience plan-phase freezes due to Claude Code stdio
deadlocks with MCP servers. When a subagent hangs, the orchestrator
blocks indefinitely with no timeout or error.
Adds:
- Windows troubleshooting section to plan-phase.md with:
- Orphaned process cleanup (PowerShell commands)
- Stale task directory cleanup (~/.claude/tasks/)
- MCP server reduction advice
- --skip-research fallback to reduce agent chain
- Stale task directory detection to health.md (I002 diagnostic)
- Reports count of stale dirs on --repair
- Safe cleanup guidance
Closes#732
Adds --analyze flag to /gsd:discuss-phase that provides a trade-off
analysis before each question (or question group in --batch mode).
When active, each question is preceded by:
- 2-3 options with pros/cons based on codebase context
- A recommended approach with reasoning
- Known pitfalls or constraints from prior phases
Composable with existing flags: --batch --analyze gives grouped
questions each with trade-off tables.
Closes#833
The <evolution> block in templates/project.md defined requirement lifecycle
rules (validate, invalidate, add, log decisions) but these instructions
only existed in the template — they never made it into the generated
PROJECT.md that agents actually read during phase transitions.
Changes:
- new-project.md: Add ## Evolution section to generated PROJECT.md with
the phase transition and milestone review checklists
- new-milestone.md: Ensure ## Evolution section exists in PROJECT.md
(backfills for projects created before this feature)
- execute-phase.md: Add .planning/PROJECT.md to executor <files_to_read>
so executors have project context (core value, requirements, evolution)
- templates/project.md: Add comment noting the <evolution> block is
implemented by transition.md and complete-milestone.md
- docs/ARCHITECTURE.md, docs/FEATURES.md: Note evolution rules in
PROJECT.md descriptions
- CHANGELOG.md: Document the new Evolution section and executor context
Fixes#1039
All 755 tests pass.
Add a cross_reference_todos step to discuss-phase that surfaces relevant
backlog items before scope-setting decisions are made.
Implementation:
- New 'todo match-phase <N>' CLI command (commands.cjs) that scores
pending todos against a phase's ROADMAP goal using three heuristics:
keyword overlap, area match, and file path overlap
- New cross_reference_todos step in discuss-phase.md between
load_prior_context and scout_codebase
- CONTEXT.md template gains 'Folded Todos' subsection in <decisions>
and 'Reviewed Todos (not folded)' subsection in <deferred>
Design:
- No AI call for matching — pure keyword/area/file heuristics for speed
- Silent skip when todo_count is 0 or no matches (no workflow slowdown)
- Auto mode folds all todos with score >= 0.4 automatically
- Scoring: keywords (up to 0.6), area match (0.3), file overlap (0.4)
Tests: 5 new tests covering empty state, keyword matching, unrelated
todo exclusion, area matching, and score sorting.
Closes#1111
Add regression_gate step between executor completion and verification
in execute-phase workflow. Runs prior phases' test suites to catch
cross-phase regressions before they compound.
- Discovers prior VERIFICATION.md files and extracts test file paths
- Detects project test runner (jest/vitest/cargo/pytest)
- Reports pass/fail with options to fix, continue, or abort
- Skips silently for first phase or when no prior tests exist
Changes:
- execute-phase.md: New regression_gate step
- CHANGELOG.md: Document regression gate feature
- docs/FEATURES.md: Add REQ-EXEC-09
Fixes#945

Add step 13 (Requirements Coverage Gate) to plan-phase workflow.
After plans pass the checker, verifies all phase requirements are
covered by at least one plan before declaring planning complete.
- Extracts REQ-IDs from plan frontmatter and compares against
phase_req_ids from ROADMAP
- Cross-checks CONTEXT.md features against plan objectives to
detect silently dropped scope
- Reports gaps with options: re-plan, defer, or proceed
- Skips when phase_req_ids is null/TBD (no requirements mapped)
Fixes#984

Enhance /gsd:pause-work to write .planning/HANDOFF.json alongside
.continue-here.md. The JSON provides machine-readable state that
/gsd:resume-work can parse for precise resumption.
HANDOFF.json includes:
- Task position (phase, plan, task number, status)
- Completed and remaining tasks with commit hashes
- Blockers with type classification (technical/human_action/external)
- Human actions pending (API keys, approvals, manual testing)
- Uncommitted files list
- Context notes for mental model restoration
Resume-work changes:
- HANDOFF.json is primary resumption source (highest priority)
- Surfaces blockers and human actions immediately on session start
- Validates uncommitted files against git status
- Deletes HANDOFF.json after successful resumption
- Falls back to .continue-here.md if no JSON exists
Also checks for placeholder content in SUMMARY.md files to catch
false completions (frontmatter claims complete but body has TBD).
Fixes#940
* feat: /gsd:ship command for PR creation from verified phase work (#829)
New command that bridges local completion → merged PR, closing the
plan → execute → verify → ship loop.
Workflow (workflows/ship.md):
1. Preflight: verification passed, clean tree, correct branch, gh auth
2. Push branch to remote
3. Auto-generate rich PR body from planning artifacts:
- Phase goal from ROADMAP.md
- Changes from SUMMARY.md files
- Requirements addressed (REQ-IDs)
- Verification status
- Key decisions
4. Create PR via gh CLI (supports --draft)
5. Optional code review request
6. Update STATE.md with shipping status
Files:
- commands/gsd/ship.md: New command entry point
- get-shit-done/workflows/ship.md: Full workflow implementation
- get-shit-done/workflows/help.md: Add ship to help output
- docs/COMMANDS.md: Command reference
- docs/FEATURES.md: Feature spec with REQ-SHIP-01 through 05
- docs/USER-GUIDE.md: Add to command table
- CHANGELOG.md: Document new command
Fixes#829
* fix(tests): update expected skill count from 39 to 40 for new ship command
The Copilot install E2E tests hardcode the expected number of skill
directories and manifest entries. Adding commands/gsd/ship.md increased
the count from 39 to 40.
The agent was telling users to run '/gsd:transition' after phase completion,
but this command does not exist. transition.md is an internal workflow invoked
by execute-phase during auto-advance.
Changes:
- Add <internal_workflow> banner to transition.md declaring it is NOT a user command
- Add explicit warning in execute-phase completion section that /gsd:transition
does not exist
- Add 'only suggest commands listed above' guard to prevent hallucination
- Update resume-project.md to avoid ambiguous 'Transition' label
- Replace 'ready for transition' with 'ready for next step' in execute-plan.md
Fixes#1081
