* feat(gsd-tools): add frontmatter CRUD, verification suite, template fill, and state progression
Four new command groups that delegate deterministic operations from AI agents to code:
- frontmatter get/set/merge/validate: Safe YAML frontmatter manipulation with schema validation
- verify plan-structure/phase-completeness/references/commits/artifacts/key-links: Structural checks agents previously burned context on
- template fill summary/plan/verification: Pre-filled document skeletons so agents only fill creative content
- state advance-plan/record-metric/update-progress/add-decision/add-blocker/resolve-blocker/record-session: Automate arithmetic and formatting in STATE.md
Adds reconstructFrontmatter() + spliceFrontmatter() helpers for safe frontmatter roundtripping,
and parseMustHavesBlock() for 3-level YAML parsing of must_haves structures.
20 new functions, ~1037 new lines.

* feat: wire gsd-tools commands into agents and workflows
- gsd-verifier: use `verify artifacts` and `verify key-links` instead of
manual grep patterns for stub detection and wiring verification
- gsd-executor: use `state advance-plan`, `state update-progress`,
`state record-metric`, `state add-decision`, `state record-session`
instead of manual STATE.md manipulation
- gsd-plan-checker: use `verify plan-structure` and `frontmatter get`
for structural validation and must_haves extraction
- gsd-planner: add validation step using `frontmatter validate` and
`verify plan-structure` after writing PLAN.md
- execute-plan.md: use gsd-tools state commands for position/progress updates
- verify-phase.md: use gsd-tools for must_haves extraction and artifact/link verification
This makes the gsd-tools commands from PR #485 actually used by the system.

* prompt(001): map dependencies for new-project command
* fix(#326): enforce context fidelity in planning pipeline
Root cause: User decisions from CONTEXT.md were available but not
enforced throughout the RESEARCH → PLAN → VERIFY chain.
Changes:
- gsd-planner: Add <context_fidelity> section requiring agents to
parse and honor user decisions BEFORE creating tasks. Includes
self-check checklist and conflict handling guidance.
- gsd-phase-researcher: Add User Constraints as FIRST section in
downstream consumer table. Require researcher to copy CONTEXT.md
decisions verbatim to RESEARCH.md so planner sees them even if
it only skims.
- research.md template: Add <user_constraints> section that must
be populated first. Locked decisions, Claude's discretion, and
deferred ideas copied verbatim from CONTEXT.md.
The command file (commands/gsd/plan-phase.md) already passes
CONTEXT_CONTENT to all agents. These changes add the enforcement
layer in the agent instructions.
Fixes#326, #216, #206

Rolled back the intel system due to overengineering concerns:
- 1200+ line hook with SQLite graph database
- 21MB sql.js dependency
- Entity generation spawning additional Claude calls
- Complex system with unclear value
Removed:
- /gsd:analyze-codebase command
- /gsd:query-intel command
- gsd-intel-index.js, gsd-intel-session.js, gsd-intel-prune.js hooks
- gsd-entity-generator, gsd-indexer agents
- entity.md template
- sql.js dependency
Preserved:
- Model profiles feature
- Statusline hook
- All other v1.9.x improvements
-3,065 lines removed

- Add load_codebase_intelligence step to gsd-planner.md
- Add load_codebase_intelligence step to gsd-executor.md
- Include .planning/intel/summary.md in plan context template
- Subagents now use detected conventions during planning/execution
* feat: add uncommitted planning mode
Add config option to keep planning docs local-only (not committed to git).
Useful for OSS contributions, client projects, or keeping planning private.
Config options in .planning/config.json:
- planning.commit_docs: true/false (default: true)
- planning.search_gitignored: true/false (default: false)
When commit_docs=false:
- All git operations for .planning/ files are skipped
- User should add .planning/ to .gitignore
- Planning system works normally, just not tracked
Updated files:
- config.json template: added planning section
- execute-plan.md: conditional git commits
- execute-phase.md: conditional git commits
- create-roadmap.md: conditional git commits
- help.md: documented new config options
- planning-config.md: reference doc for config behavior

* feat: extend commit_docs check to all agents/commands/workflows
Add COMMIT_PLANNING_DOCS config check to all files that commit
.planning/ artifacts, ensuring consistent behavior when
commit_docs=false is set in config.json.
Updated:
- 5 agents (planner, executor, debugger, phase-researcher, synthesizer)
- 8 commands (add-todo, check-todos, execute-phase, new-milestone,
pause-work, plan-milestone-gaps, remove-phase, research-project)
- 7 workflows (complete-milestone, create-milestone, define-requirements,
diagnose-issues, discuss-phase, map-codebase, verify-work)

* fix(progress): use Bash instead of Glob for .planning/ check
Glob respects .gitignore, so projects with gitignored .planning/
directories would fail with "No planning structure found."

* fix(new-milestone): integrate full research/requirements/roadmap flow
Previously routed to non-existent /gsd:research-project and
/gsd:define-requirements commands. Now handles the full flow inline
like new-project does:
- Phase 7: Research Decision (spawns 4 milestone-aware researchers)
- Phase 8: Define Requirements (scopes features, creates REQUIREMENTS.md)
- Phase 9: Create Roadmap (continues phase numbering from previous milestone)
- Phase 10: Done
Key adaptations for milestones:
- Research focuses on NEW features only
- Requirements add to existing, don't start fresh
- Phase numbering continues from previous milestone

After verify-work diagnoses issues and creates fix plans, the next
command now explicitly signals intent with --gaps-only. This eliminates
redundant state discovery where execute-phase had to figure out why it
was being asked to run on an already-complete phase.

- 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

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

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.

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).

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)

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
