Phase directories are now created on-demand when discuss-phase or
plan-phase first touches a phase, rather than upfront by roadmapper.
Prevents duplicate folders when roadmapper names phases differently
than what discuss/plan-phase derives from the roadmap.

Commands accept both padded (08) and unpadded (8) phase numbers.
Normalization happens in step 1/2 before any directory lookups.

- Support both zero-padded (05-*) and unpadded (5-*) phase folders
- Delete orphaned research-subagent-prompt.md template
- Update resume-project.md to use Task tool resume parameter

/gsd:execute-phase handles single and multiple plans.
All references updated to use execute-phase.

Revision mode was missing git commit step - plans updated based on
checker issues were written to disk but never committed.

Researcher was only checking if CONTEXT.md exists (ls), not
actually reading it (cat). Added mandatory bash command to
read phase context file in step 1.

Planner was only describing that it should use these files,
not explicitly reading them. Added mandatory bash commands
to cat phase-specific context files in gather_phase_context step.

Researcher now reads and respects user decisions from discuss-phase:
- Locked decisions constrain research scope
- Claude's discretion areas get options explored
- Deferred ideas ignored

Fixes#82
When add-phase or insert-phase creates placeholder entries in ROADMAP.md,
plan-phase now finalizes them:
- Goal: derives from CONTEXT.md/RESEARCH.md if placeholder
- Plans: updates count and adds checkbox list of plan files
- Commits ROADMAP.md alongside PLAN.md files
User setup info belongs in plan frontmatter only. The execute-plan
workflow surfaces it at the right time (after automation completes).

Researchers are always spawned in parallel (4 at once). Committing is
now exclusively handled by the orchestrator or synthesizer agent after
all researchers complete.

Researchers now skip commit step when spawned in parallel.
Synthesizer agent commits STACK.md, FEATURES.md, ARCHITECTURE.md,
PITFALLS.md, and SUMMARY.md in one atomic commit.

- Create dedicated synthesizer agent to handle research synthesis
- Move SUMMARY.md creation from main orchestrator to subagent
- Reduces main context usage (~2000+ lines of research output)
- Synthesizer reads 4 research files and produces unified summary
Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.5 <noreply@anthropic.com>
Consolidates 4 separate commands into one unified flow:
- /gsd:new-project now handles: questioning → research → requirements → roadmap
- Creates gsd-roadmapper agent for heavy lifting (goal-backward, coverage validation)
- Adds atomic commits after each stage for crash recovery
- Deprecates standalone research-project, define-requirements, create-roadmap
(kept for mid-project use)
Fixes from audit:
- Add requirements quality criteria (specific, user-centric, atomic, independent)
- Add milestone context to research prompts (greenfield vs subsequent)
- Add quality gates per research dimension
- Add template references for consistent output format
Removes deprecated gsd-researcher.md (replaced by project/phase researchers)

Research decisions made at roadmap creation time are:
- Premature: Can't know if research is needed before discuss-phase
- Redundant: --skip-research flag exists for explicit control
- Counterproductive: Gives Claude an excuse to skip research entirely
Removed:
- Research: Likely/Unlikely fields from roadmap template
- detect_research_needs step from create-roadmap workflow
- "If roadmap flagged Research: Likely" checks from gsd-planner
Research now always runs during plan-phase unless:
- RESEARCH.md already exists (silent reuse)
- --skip-research flag passed
- --gaps flag passed (gap closure mode)
Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.5 <noreply@anthropic.com>
Split gsd-researcher into two specialized agents:
- gsd-phase-researcher: tailored for phase research before planning
- gsd-project-researcher: tailored for ecosystem research before roadmap
Updated /gsd:plan-phase to auto-research before planning:
- Research runs if no RESEARCH.md exists (silent use if exists)
- --research flag forces re-research
- --skip-research flag bypasses research entirely
- Researchers commit their output
This enables single-command workflow: /gsd:plan-phase does
research → plan → verify in one orchestrated flow.

Adds back guidance that was lost during consolidation:
- Task sizing heuristic (15-60 min target)
- Signals for too large / too small tasks
- Specificity side-by-side examples table
- "The test" for checking task clarity
This agent was correctly deleted in f3e0e69 (subagents can't spawn
subagents), then accidentally re-added in d07ef33 during install fix.
The command audit-milestone.md is the orchestrator. No agent needed.
research-phase.md:
- Added <key_insight> framing ("what don't I know that I don't know")
- Added <downstream_consumer> explaining plan-phase integration
- Added <quality_gate> checklist
research-project.md:
- Added milestone context (greenfield vs v1.1+)
- Added <downstream_consumer> per dimension
- Added <quality_gate> per agent
- Enhanced roadmap implications guidance
gsd-researcher.md:
- Simplified <gsd_integration> to point to orchestrator-provided context
- Agent is now pure research capability, context is injected
Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.5 <noreply@anthropic.com>
Reduces context exhaustion during /gsd:map-codebase by having agents
write documents directly instead of returning findings to orchestrator.
- Create gsd-codebase-mapper agent with embedded templates
- Agent understands downstream consumers (plan-phase, execute-plan)
- Parameterized by focus: tech, arch, quality, concerns
- Each focus writes specific documents directly to .planning/codebase/
- Orchestrator receives only confirmation + line counts
Context savings: ~40 lines returned vs potentially thousands of lines
of exploration findings previously transferred back to orchestrator.

Explains why research matters: output directly consumed by plan-phase.
Documents the contract between RESEARCH.md sections and planning workflow.

The agents folder (gsd-executor, gsd-verifier, gsd-integration-checker,
gsd-milestone-auditor) was not being published to npm because it was
missing from the package.json files array.
Also adds the missing gsd-milestone-auditor.md agent.

Step 0 now explicitly states to skip to Step 3 when in re-verification
mode. Steps 1-2 marked as "Initial Mode Only" to make flow clear.

When VERIFICATION.md already exists with gaps, verifier now:
- Loads previous must-haves instead of re-deriving
- Focuses deep verification on failed items
- Quick regression check on passed items
- Tracks re-verification metadata (gaps_closed, regressions)
Saves tokens by not starting from scratch after gap closure.
Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.5 <noreply@anthropic.com>
- Add verify_phase_goal step to execute-phase workflow
- Verifier outputs structured gaps: YAML for planner consumption
- Add --gaps flag to plan-phase for gap closure mode
- Route by verification status: passed, gaps_found, human_needed
- Gap closure creates sequential plans (04, 05...) from verification gaps
- User stays in control at each decision point
Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.5 <noreply@anthropic.com>
- gsd-verifier.md: dedicated verification subagent with all logic baked in
- Goal-backward verification: checks codebase, not SUMMARY claims
- Creates VERIFICATION.md, returns status to orchestrator
- execute-phase spawns gsd-verifier instead of general-purpose
Co-Authored-By: Claude <noreply@anthropic.com>
Moves all plan execution logic into a dedicated subagent:
- Deviation rules, checkpoint protocols, commit formatting
- Summary creation, state updates, TDD execution
- Authentication gate handling, continuation support
Installer now copies agents/ to ~/.claude/agents/
