- Add `websearch` command to gsd-tools.js for Brave API
- Detect BRAVE_API_KEY env var or ~/.gsd/brave_api_key file
- Persist brave_search setting to config.json on project init
- Update researcher agents to check config before calling
Graceful degradation: if brave_search is false, agents use
built-in WebSearch without wasted Bash calls.

When user selects "Skip research" during /gsd:new-milestone, the choice
was not saved to .planning/config.json. Later, /gsd:plan-phase would
read the default (research: true) and spawn researchers anyway.
- Add `config-set` command to gsd-tools.js for setting nested config values
- Update new-milestone workflow to persist research choice after user decides
Closes#484

* 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.

* fix(execute-phase): pass file paths to subagents instead of content
The --include flag added in fa81821 caused orchestrator context bloat
by reading STATE, config, and plan files into the orchestrator's context,
then embedding all content in Task() prompts.
With multiple plans, this consumed 50-60%+ of context before execution.
Fix: Pass file paths only. Subagents read files themselves in their
fresh 200k context. Orchestrator stays lean (~10-15% as intended).
Fixes#479

* fix: respect commit_docs=false in execute-plan and debugger workflows
Two code paths bypassed the commit_docs configuration check, causing
.planning files to be intermittently committed when commit_docs=false:
1. execute-plan.md: update_codebase_map step ran `git add .planning/codebase/*.md`
unconditionally — now gated behind commit_docs check
2. gsd-debugger.md: used `git add -A` which stages .planning/ files — replaced
with explicit individual file staging and proper commit_docs conditional
Fixes#478https://claude.ai/code/session_013yS1F2VR3Jn2pdwqr5NuDo
* fix: route all .planning commits through gsd-tools.js CLI
Instead of wrapping direct git commands in markdown conditionals,
both bypass paths now use gsd-tools.js commit which has the
commit_docs check built in:
1. execute-plan.md: uses `gsd-tools.js commit --amend` for codebase
map updates (new --amend flag added to CLI)
2. gsd-debugger.md: code commit uses direct git (no .planning files),
planning docs commit uses gsd-tools.js commit
Also added --amend support to gsd-tools.js commit command so the
execute-plan codebase map step can amend the previous metadata commit.
Fixes#478https://claude.ai/code/session_013yS1F2VR3Jn2pdwqr5NuDo
* docs: update reference docs to use gsd-tools.js CLI for all .planning commits
Reference documentation showed direct git add/commit patterns for
.planning files, which agents copy-paste and bypass the commit_docs
check. Updated all three reference files to show gsd-tools.js commit
as the canonical pattern:
- git-planning-commit.md: replaced manual bash conditionals with CLI
- git-integration.md: replaced direct git add/commit in initialization,
plan-completion, and handoff examples
- planning-config.md: replaced conditional git example with CLI call

Workflows were calling init commands to get parsed JSON metadata, then
immediately reading the same files again with cat to pass raw content
to agents. This wastes context tokens.
Changes:
- Add --include flag to init execute-phase, plan-phase, and progress
- Support includes: state, config, roadmap, requirements, context,
research, verification, uat, project
- Update plan-phase.md to use --include (removes 6 cat calls)
- Update execute-phase.md to use --include (removes 2 cat calls)
- Update execute-plan.md to use --include (removes 2 cat calls)
- Update progress.md to use --include (removes 4 cat calls)
- Add 7 tests for --include functionality
Token savings: ~5,000-10,000 tokens per plan-phase execution,
~1,500-3,000 per other workflow executions.

Add three new commands that extract structured data from GSD files,
reducing context usage by returning only parsed fields instead of
raw file content:
- phase-plan-index: Plans grouped by wave with metadata (id, wave,
autonomous, objective, files_modified, task_count, has_summary)
- state-snapshot: Parsed STATE.md fields (current phase, decisions,
blockers, session info)
- summary-extract: Frontmatter extraction with optional --fields filter
Update workflows to use new commands:
- execute-phase: Use phase-plan-index instead of ls + grep loop
- plan-phase: Use state-snapshot for decisions
- research-phase: Use state-snapshot for decisions
- complete-milestone: Use summary-extract for one-liners
