* fix(#2838): SUMMARY rescue handles gitignored .planning explicitly
The pre-fix rescue used `git ls-files --modified --others --exclude-standard`
to detect uncommitted SUMMARY.md before worktree removal. When projects
gitignore .planning/, --exclude-standard filters out the very files the
rescue is meant to save, the rescue branch is skipped, and `git worktree
remove --force` permanently deletes the SUMMARY.
Replace both rescue blocks (quick.md, execute-phase.md) with a
filesystem-level find + cp rescue that bypasses gitignore entirely and
avoids the worktree↔main commit/merge cascade. cmp -s makes it idempotent.
Adds tests/bug-2838-summary-rescue-gitignored-planning.test.cjs which
extracts each rescue block, runs it against a real temp repo with a
gitignored .planning/, and asserts the SUMMARY survives worktree removal.
* test(#2838): assert rescue block exits 0 in idempotency test
CodeRabbit (Minor): the idempotency test pre-creates the destination
SUMMARY.md, so even a syntax/runtime error in the rescue block would
silently false-pass. Add an explicit r.status === 0 assertion.
* fix(#2767): pass paths via --files to gsd-sdk query commit + lint guard
Workflows, agents, commands, and references passed file paths positionally
to `gsd-sdk query commit`, which silently appended them to the commit
subject and triggered the `.planning/` wholesale-stage fallback in
sdk/src/query/commit.ts:136. Regression of #733/#798.
Inserted `--files` before the path list at every site (81 invocations
across 50 files). Added tests/bug-2767-gsd-sdk-commit-files-flag.test.cjs
as a permanent lint that scans every shipped .md file and asserts each
`gsd-sdk query commit[-to-subrepo]` invocation either uses `--files` or
carries no path arguments.
Closes#2767
* test(#2767): replace source-grep with behavioral SDK test
The original test walked every shipped .md file and regex-tokenized
`gsd-sdk query commit` invocations to assert `--files` was present.
CONTRIBUTING.md prohibits this source-grep pattern.
Rewrite as behavioral SDK tests against `sdk/dist/cli.js` over a real
tmp git project (createTempGitProject helper). Cover both the
well-formed (`--files <paths>`) form — clean subject, exactly-staged
files, .planning/ left untouched — and the buggy positional form,
asserting the documented misbehavior (paths leak into subject + the
`.planning/` wholesale-stage fallback at commit.ts:136). Also asserts
`commit-to-subrepo` rejects when `--files` is omitted (commit.ts:258).
The doc-lint is retained as a supplementary defense-in-depth guard
since agent-prompt markdown invocations cannot be exercised end-to-end
— but it is no longer the primary contract.
* docs(#2767): correct contradictory --files guidance in zh-CN/en docs + fix test docstring
* fix(#2772): only disable worktree isolation when planned paths touch submodules
The previous guard in execute-phase.md and quick.md unconditionally set
USE_WORKTREES=false whenever .gitmodules existed, penalising every plan in
a submodule project even when no plan touched a submodule path.
Replace with submodule-path parsing + per-plan path intersection:
- Parse SUBMODULE_PATHS once from .gitmodules via
`git config --file .gitmodules --get-regexp '^submodule\..*\.path$'`.
- In execute-phase.md, intersect SUBMODULE_PATHS with each plan's
files_modified frontmatter; disable worktree isolation only for plans
with non-empty intersection. Fall back to safe-disable for that plan
when files_modified is missing/unparseable, with a log line explaining
why.
- In quick.md (no pre-declared paths), keep submodule-path parsing and
document a fail-loud commit-time guard so the executor aborts only when
it actually stages a submodule path.
Add tests/bug-2772-gitmodules-path-intersection.test.cjs covering both
files: no unconditional disable, submodule paths are parsed, intersection
logic exists in execute-phase, fallback path is documented.
Full suite: 5680 / 5680 pass.
Closes#2772
* test(#2772): replace source-grep with behavioral test of submodule path intersection
* fix(#2772): wire USE_WORKTREES_FOR_PLAN into dispatch + fix glob matcher + add quick.md commit guard
Address CodeRabbit review on PR #2779 — the original fix computed
USE_WORKTREES_FOR_PLAN but never read it, so the per-plan submodule
intersection was dead code. Dispatch sites still branched on the
project-level USE_WORKTREES.
Changes:
1. execute-phase.md (CRITICAL — dispatch wiring): Move per-plan
computation into execute_waves as sub-step 2.5, run it for each plan
before its dispatch, and gate all four dispatch sites on
USE_WORKTREES_FOR_PLAN: worktree-mode header, sequential-mode header,
"worktrees disabled" sequential rule, and post-wave cleanup. Document
PLAN_FILES extraction via jq from the phase-plan-index JSON. Track
WAVE_WORKTREE_PLANS so post-wave cleanup only runs when at least one
plan in the wave actually used worktrees.
2. Per-plan gate matcher (MAJOR — glob safety): Strip leading "./" and
trailing "/" from both submodule and planned paths. Match
bidirectionally (pf inside sm AND sm inside pf). Handle globby
planned paths like "vendor/**/*.c" by extracting the literal prefix
before the first glob metachar and re-checking. Wrap the iteration
in set -f / set +f so glob expansion does not corrupt patterns.
Extracted the gate (~92 lines) into
workflows/execute-phase/steps/per-plan-worktree-gate.md to keep
execute-phase.md under the 1700-line XL budget.
3. quick.md (CRITICAL — fail-loud guard): Inject SUBMODULE_PATHS into
the executor Task prompt and add a <submodule_commit_guard> bash
block the executor must run before every git commit. The guard
inspects staged paths via `git diff --cached --name-only`, normalizes
paths, and aborts with a clear ABORT message + recovery instruction
("re-run with workflow.use_worktrees=false") when any staged path
falls inside a submodule.
4. tests/bug-2772-gitmodules-path-intersection.test.cjs: 25 tests total.
Updated GATE_SNIPPET to match the new bash matcher. Added
normalization tests (./ prefix, trailing /, glob "vendor/**/*.c",
parent directory, ./ in .gitmodules). Added workflow-markdown
wiring assertions for all 4 dispatch sites + per-plan gate file
extraction. Added quick.md guard tests: prompt injection assertion +
behavioral fixture-repo tests that stage a submodule path and assert
the guard exits non-zero with the ABORT message.
Test count: 5701 pass / 0 fail (was 5698/1 before).

* fix(#2774): inclusion-based worktree cleanup to protect workspace .git
The cleanup blocks in execute-phase.md and quick.md used an exclusion
filter (`grep -v "$(pwd)$"`) to skip the current worktree before calling
`git worktree remove --force` on everything else. The exclusion fails
whenever the current workspace is itself a worktree of an upstream repo:
- multi-workspace setups where `git worktree list` reports the registry
path as a different absolute path than `$(pwd)`
- the cross-drive Windows case where the registry reports `E:/...` while
`$(pwd)` resolves to `C:/...` — the equality test never holds, every
other worktree (including the workspace itself) is removed, and the
workspace's `.git` pointer file is destroyed.
Switches both cleanup blocks to an inclusion-based filter that targets
only agent-spawned worktrees under `.claude/worktrees/agent-`, the
namespace Claude Code's `isolation="worktree"` always uses for executor
worktrees. The workspace path can never collide with that prefix.
Adds tests/bug-2774-worktree-cleanup-workspace-safety.test.cjs covering:
- both workflow files use the inclusion filter
- neither falls back to the broken `grep -v "$(pwd)$"` guard
- end-to-end simulation of porcelain output with workspace + agent
worktrees yields only the agent worktree
Closes#2774
* test(#2774): replace source-grep with behavioral test of cleanup pipeline
* fix(#2774): whitespace-safe worktree iteration with while/read
CodeRabbit review on PR #2778 flagged that `for WT in $WORKTREES` splits
on whitespace. Any agent worktree path containing a space (e.g. a workspace
under '/Users/dev/My Workspace/') would be torn into broken half-paths,
`git -C` would fail on each fragment, and the executor branch would never
be deleted.
Switch both cleanup blocks (quick.md and execute-phase.md) to:
while IFS= read -r WT; do
[ -z "$WT" ] && continue
...
done < <(git worktree list --porcelain | grep ... | sed ...)
Process substitution feeds the pipeline output line-by-line — IFS= and -r
preserve every byte of the path including embedded spaces.
Also rename the misleading `makeBareTempGitRepo` helper to
`makeTempUpstreamRepo` (it does not pass --bare; it inits a normal repo
with an initial commit so worktree-add works).
Add two new behavioral tests:
- discovery pipeline yields whitespace paths intact on a single line
- the actual while/read loop iterates each whitespace-bearing path
exactly once (would fail with the previous `for WT in` form)
Tests: 5681 pass, 0 fail.
Adds ORCHESTRATOR RULE blockquotes immediately after every Task() spawn
in 26 GSD workflow files, instructing the parent orchestrator to stop
working on the task while the subagent is active. This prevents the
parallel-work anti-pattern on Codex runtime where the parent continues
reading files and producing duplicate/conflicting output after spawning.
Rules are placed inline at each spawn point (not as generic headers)
so they are adjacent to and unambiguously associated with each Task()
call. Background Task() spawns get a variant noting not to return to
the spawning context until the subagent reports back.

* fix(#2636): surface gsd-sdk query failures and add workflow↔handler parity check
Root cause: workflows invoked `gsd-sdk query agent-skills <slug>` with a
trailing `2>/dev/null`, swallowing stderr and exit code. When the installed
`@gsd-build/sdk` npm was stale (pre-query), the call resolved to an empty
string and `agent_skills.<slug>` config was never injected into spawn
prompts — silently. The handler exists on main (sdk/src/query/skills.ts),
so this is a publish-drift + silent-fallback bug, not a missing handler.
Fix:
- Remove bare `2>/dev/null` from every `gsd-sdk query agent-skills …`
invocation in workflows so SDK failures surface to stderr.
- Apply the same rule to other no-fallback calls (audit-open, write-profile,
generate-* profile handlers, frontmatter.get in commands). Best-effort
cleanup calls (config-set workflow._auto_chain_active false) keep
exit-code forgiveness via `|| true` but no longer suppress stderr.
Parity tests:
- New: tests/bug-2636-gsd-sdk-query-silent-swallow.test.cjs — fails if any
`gsd-sdk query agent-skills … 2>/dev/null` is reintroduced.
- Existing: tests/gsd-sdk-query-registry-integration.test.cjs already
asserts every workflow noun resolves to a registered handler; confirmed
passing post-change.
Note: npm republish of @gsd-build/sdk is a separate release concern and is
not included in this PR.
* fix(#2636): address review — restore broken markdown fences and shell syntax
The previous commit's mass removal of '2>/dev/null' suffixes also
collapsed adjacent closing code fences and 'fi' tokens onto the
command line, producing malformed markdown blocks and 'truefi' /
'true fi' shell syntax errors in the workflows.
Repaired sites:
- commands/gsd/quick.md, thread.md (frontmatter.get fences)
- workflows/complete-milestone.md (audit-open fence)
- workflows/profile-user.md (write-profile + generate-* fences)
- workflows/verify-work.md (audit-open --json fence)
- workflows/execute-phase.md (truefi -> true / fi)
- workflows/plan-phase.md, discuss-phase-assumptions.md,
discuss-phase/modes/chain.md (true fi -> true / fi)
All 5450 tests pass.
* fix(workflows): agent-skills query keys must match subagent_type
Eight workflow files called `gsd-sdk query agent-skills <KEY>` with
a key that did not match any `subagent_type` Task() spawns in the
same workflow (or any existing `agents/<KEY>.md`):
- research-phase.md:45 — gsd-researcher → gsd-phase-researcher
- plan-phase.md:36 — gsd-researcher → gsd-phase-researcher
- plan-phase.md:38 — gsd-checker → gsd-plan-checker
- quick.md:145 — gsd-checker → gsd-plan-checker
- verify-work.md:36 — gsd-checker → gsd-plan-checker
- new-milestone.md:207 — gsd-synthesizer → gsd-research-synthesizer
- new-project.md:63 — gsd-synthesizer → gsd-research-synthesizer
- ui-review.md:21 — gsd-ui-reviewer → gsd-ui-auditor
- discuss-phase.md:114 — gsd-advisor → gsd-advisor-researcher
Effect before this fix: users configuring `agent_skills.<correct-type>`
in .planning/config.json got no injection on these paths because the
workflow asked the SDK for a different (non-existent) key. The SDK
correctly returned "" for the unknown key, which then interpolated as
an empty string into the Task() prompt. Silent no-op.
The discuss-phase advisor case is a subtle variant — the spawn site
uses `subagent_type="general-purpose"` and loads the agent role via
`Read(~/.claude/agents/gsd-advisor-researcher.md)`. The injection key
must follow the agent identity (gsd-advisor-researcher), not the
technical spawn type.
This is a follow-up to #2555 — the SDK-side fix in that PR (#2587)
only becomes fully effective once the call sites use the right keys.
Adds `sdk/src/workflow-agent-skills-consistency.test.ts` as a
contract test: every `agent-skills <slug>` invocation in
`get-shit-done/workflows/**/*.md` must reference an existing
`agents/<slug>.md`. Fails loudly on future key typos.
Closes#2615
* test: harden workflow agent-skills regex per review feedback
Review (#2616): CodeRabbit flagged the `agent-skills <slug>` pattern
as too permissive (can match prose mentions of the string) and the
per-line scan as brittle (misses commands wrapped across lines).
- Require full `gsd-sdk query agent-skills` prefix before capture
+ `\b` around the pattern so prose references no longer match.
- Scan each file's full content (not line-by-line) so `\s+` can span
newlines; resolve 1-based line number from match index.
- Add JSDoc on helpers and on QUERY_KEY_PATTERN.
Verified: RED against base (`f30da83`) produces the same 9 violations
as before; GREEN on fixed tree.

Commands are now installed as commands/gsd/<name>.md and invoked as
/gsd:<name> in Claude Code. The old hyphen form /gsd-<name> was still
hardcoded in hundreds of places across workflows, references, templates,
lib modules, and command files — causing "Unknown command" errors
whenever GSD suggested a command to the user.
Replace all /gsd-<cmd> occurrences where <cmd> is a known command name
(derived at runtime from commands/gsd/*.md) using a targeted Node.js
script. Agent names, tool names (gsd-sdk, gsd-tools), directory names,
and path fragments are not touched.
Adds regression test tests/bug-2543-gsd-slash-namespace.test.cjs that
enforces zero legacy occurrences going forward. Removes inverted
tests/stale-colon-refs.test.cjs (bug #1748) which enforced the now-obsolete

Three gaps in the orchestrator file-protection block (#1756, #2040):
1. quick.md never received the pre-merge deletion guard added to
execute-phase.md in #2040. Added the same DELETIONS check: if the
worktree branch deletes any tracked .planning/ files, block the merge
with a clear message rather than silently losing those files.
2. Both workflows deleted STATE_BACKUP and ROADMAP_BACKUP on merge
conflict — destroying the recovery files at exactly the moment they
were needed. Changed conflict handler to: preserve both backup paths,
print restore instructions, and break (halt) instead of continue
(silently advancing to the next worktree).
3. Neither workflow used --no-ff. Without it a fast-forward merge
produces no merge commit, so HEAD~1 in the resurrection check points
to the worktree's parent rather than main's pre-merge HEAD. Added
--no-ff to both git merge calls so HEAD~1 is always reliable.

* fix(2137): skip worktree isolation when .gitmodules detected
When a project contains git submodules, worktree isolation cannot

and fall back to sequential execution, which handles submodules
transparently (Option B).

Replace `git show HEAD:.planning/STATE.md` with `cp .planning/STATE.md`
in the worktree merge-back protection logic of execute-phase.md and
quick.md. The git show approach exits 128 when STATE.md has uncommitted
changes or is not yet in HEAD's committed tree, leaving an empty backup
and causing the post-merge restore guard to silently skip — zeroing or
staling the file. Using cp reads the actual working-tree file (including
orchestrator updates that haven't been committed yet), which is exactly
what "main always wins" should protect.
AskUserQuestion is a Claude Code-only tool. When running GSD on OpenAI Codex,
Gemini CLI, or other non-Claude runtimes, the model renders the tool call as a
markdown code block instead of executing it, so the interactive TUI never
appears and the session stalls without collecting user input.
The workflow.text_mode / --text flag mechanism already handles this in 5 of
the 37 affected workflows. This commit adds the same TEXT_MODE fallback
instruction to all remaining 32 workflows so that, when text_mode is enabled,
every AskUserQuestion call is replaced with a plain-text numbered list that
any runtime can handle.

* fix(worktree): use hard reset to correct file tree when branch base is wrong (#1981)
The worktree_branch_check mitigation detects when EnterWorktree creates
branches from main instead of the current feature branch, but used
git reset --soft to correct it. This only fixed the commit pointer —
the working tree still contained main's files, causing silent data loss
on merge-back when the agent's commits overwrote feature branch code.
Changed to git reset --hard which safely corrects both pointer and file
tree (the check runs before any agent work, so no changes to lose).
Also removed the broken rebase --onto attempt in execute-phase.md that
could replay main's commits onto the feature branch, and added post-reset
verification that aborts if the correction fails.
Updated documentation from "Windows" to "all platforms" since the
upstream EnterWorktree bug affects macOS, Linux, and Windows alike.

Executor agents spawned with isolation="worktree" committed to temporary
branches in separate working trees, but no step existed to merge those

completion — merges worktree branch, removes worktree, deletes temp
branch. Handles merge conflicts gracefully.
- quick.md: add worktree cleanup step after executor returns, before

Adds `workflow.use_worktrees` config option (default: `true`) that
allows users to disable git worktree isolation for executor agents.
When set to `false`:
- Executor agents run without `isolation="worktree"`
- Plans execute sequentially on the main working tree
- No worktree merge ordering issues or orphaned worktrees
- Normal git hooks run (no --no-verify needed)
This provides an escape hatch for solo developers and users who
experience worktree merge conflicts, as worktree ordering issues
are inherently difficult when parallel agents modify overlapping
files.
Usage:
/gsd:settings → set workflow.use_worktrees to false
Or directly:
gsd-tools config-set workflow.use_worktrees false
Changes:
- config.cjs: add workflow.use_worktrees to valid keys
- planning-config.md: document the option
- execute-phase.md: read config, conditional worktree + sequential mode
- execute-plan.md: conditional worktree in Pattern A
- quick.md: conditional worktree for quick executor
- diagnose-issues.md: conditional worktree for debug agents
- 2 new tests (config set + workflow structural check)
Closes#1451

Add agent_skills config section that maps agent types to skill directory
paths. At spawn time, workflows load configured skills and inject them
as <agent_skills> blocks in Task() prompts, giving subagents access to
project-specific skill files.

PR #1139 added <available_agent_types> sections to execute-phase.md and
plan-phase.md to prevent /clear from causing silent fallback to
general-purpose. However, 14 other workflows and 2 commands that also
spawn named GSD agents were missed, leaving them vulnerable to the same
regression after /clear.
Added <available_agent_types> listing to: research-phase, quick,
audit-milestone, diagnose-issues, discuss-phase-assumptions,
execute-plan, map-codebase, new-milestone, new-project, ui-phase,
ui-review, validate-phase, verify-work (workflows) and debug,
research-phase (commands).
Added regression test that enforces every workflow/command spawning
named subagent_type must have a matching <available_agent_types>
section listing all spawned types.
Fixes#1357

All code-writing agents (gsd-executor, gsd-debugger) were dispatched
without isolation: "worktree", causing branch pollution when agents
switched branches in the shared working tree during concurrent work.
Added isolation="worktree" to all Task() dispatch sites:
- execute-phase.md: executor agent dispatch
- execute-plan.md: Pattern A executor reference
- quick.md: quick task executor dispatch
- diagnose-issues.md: debugger agent dispatch

Enable multiple Claude Code instances to work on the same codebase
simultaneously by scoping .planning/ state into workstreams.
Core changes:
- planningDir(cwd, ws?) and planningPaths(cwd, ws?) are now workstream-aware
via GSD_WORKSTREAM env var (auto-detected from --ws flag or active-workstream file)
- All bin/lib modules use planningDir(cwd) for scoped paths (STATE.md, ROADMAP.md,
phases/, REQUIREMENTS.md) and planningRoot(cwd) for shared paths (milestones/,
PROJECT.md, config.json, codebase/)
- New workstream.cjs module: create, list, status, complete, set, get, progress
- gsd-tools.cjs: --ws flag parsing with priority chain
(--ws > GSD_WORKSTREAM env > active-workstream file > flat mode)
- Collision detection: transition.md checks for other active workstreams before
suggesting next-milestone continuation (prevents WS A from trampling WS B)
- ${GSD_WS} routing propagation across all 9 workflow files ensures workstream
scope chains automatically through the workflow lifecycle
New files:
- get-shit-done/bin/lib/workstream.cjs (CRUD + collision detection)
- get-shit-done/commands/gsd/workstreams.md (slash command)
- get-shit-done/references/workstream-flag.md (documentation)
- tests/workstream.test.cjs (20 tests covering CRUD, env var routing, --ws flag)
All 1062 tests passing (1042 existing + 20 new workstream tests).

Add composable --research flag to /gsd:quick that spawns a focused
gsd-phase-researcher before planning. Investigates implementation
approaches, library options, and pitfalls for the task.
Addresses the middle-ground gap between quick (no quality agents) and
full milestone workflows. All three flags are composable:
--discuss --research --full gives the complete quality pipeline.

Quick task IDs were sequential integers (001, 002...) computed by reading
the local .planning/quick/ directory max value. Two users running /gsd:quick
simultaneously would get the same number, causing directory collisions on git.
Replace with a collision-resistant format: YYMMDD-xxx where xxx is the
number of 2-second blocks elapsed since midnight, encoded as 3 lowercase
Base36 characters (000–xbz). Practical collision window is ~2 seconds per
user — effectively zero for any realistic team workflow.
- init.cjs: remove nextNum scan logic, generate quickId from wall clock
- quick.md: rename all next_num refs to quick_id, update directory patterns
- init.test.cjs: rewrite cmdInitQuick tests for new ID format

* fix: add mandatory canonical_refs section to CONTEXT.md
CONTEXT.md is the bridge between user decisions and downstream agents
(researcher, planner). When projects have external specs, ADRs, or
design docs, these references were being silently dropped — mentioned
inline as "see ADR-019" but never collected into a section that agents
could find and read. This caused agents to plan and implement without
reading the specs they were supposed to follow.
Changes:
- templates/context.md: Add <canonical_refs> section to file template,
all 3 examples, and guidelines (marked MANDATORY)
- workflows/discuss-phase.md: Add step 1b (extract canonical refs),
add section to write_context template, add to success criteria
- workflows/plan-phase.md: Add canonical ref extraction to PRD express
path and its CONTEXT.md template
- workflows/quick.md: Add lightweight canonical_refs to --discuss mode
The section is mandatory but gracefully handles projects without external
docs ("No external specs — requirements fully captured in decisions above").

* fix: make canonical refs an accumulator across entire discussion
Refs come from 4 sources, not just ROADMAP.md:
1. ROADMAP.md Canonical refs line (initial seed)
2. REQUIREMENTS.md/PROJECT.md referenced specs
3. Codebase scout (code comments citing ADRs)
4. User during discussion ("read adr-014", "check the MCP spec")
Source 4 is often the MOST important — these are docs the user
specifically wants downstream agents to follow. The previous
version only handled source 1 and silently dropped the rest.

When gsd-tools init output exceeds 50KB, core.cjs writes to a temp file
and outputs @file:<path>. No workflow handled this prefix, causing agents
to hallucinate /tmp paths that fail on Windows (C:\tmp doesn't exist).
Add @file: resolution line after every INIT=$(node ...) call across all
32 workflow, agent, and reference files.

Surfaces gray areas and captures user decisions in CONTEXT.md before
planning, reducing hallucination risk for ambiguous quick tasks.
Composable with --full for discussion + plan-checking + verification.

Replace general-purpose workaround pattern with named subagent types:
- plan-phase: researcher and planner now spawn as gsd-phase-researcher/gsd-planner
- new-project: 4 researcher spawns now use gsd-project-researcher
- research-phase: researcher spawns now use gsd-phase-researcher
- quick: planner revision now uses gsd-planner
- diagnose-issues: debug agents now use gsd-debugger (matches template spec)
Removes 'First, read agent .md file' prompt prefix — named agent types
auto-load their .md file as system prompt, making the workaround redundant.
Preserves intentional general-purpose orchestrator spawns in discuss-phase
and plan-phase (auto-advance) where the agent runs an entire workflow.

Claude Code subagents sometimes rewrite ~/. paths to relative paths,
causing MODULE_NOT_FOUND when CWD is the project directory. $HOME is a
shell variable resolved at runtime, immune to model path rewriting.

* fix: use `.claude/skills/` instead of `.agents/skills/` in agent and workflow skill references
Claude Code resolves project skills from `.claude/skills/` (project-level)
and `~/.claude/skills/` (user-level). The `.agents/skills/` path is the
universal/IDE-agnostic convention that Claude Code does not resolve, causing
project skills to be silently ignored by all affected agents and workflows.
Fixes#758

* fix: support both `.claude/skills/` and `.agents/skills/` for cross-IDE compatibility
Instead of replacing `.agents/skills/` with `.claude/skills/`, reference both
paths so GSD works with Claude Code (`.claude/skills/`) and other IDE agents
like OpenCode (`.agents/skills/`).
Addresses review feedback from begna112 on #758.

Subagents now read project-level CLAUDE.md if it exists:
- Workflows: execute-phase, plan-phase, quick
- Agents: gsd-executor, gsd-planner, gsd-phase-researcher, gsd-plan-checker
Agents read ./CLAUDE.md in their fresh context, following project-specific
guidelines, security requirements, and coding conventions.
