1. Gate findProjectRoot to commands that access .planning/ — skip for
pure-utility commands (generate-slug, current-timestamp, template,
frontmatter, verify-path-exists, verify-summary) to avoid unnecessary
filesystem traversal on every invocation.
2. Warn to stderr when commit-to-subrepo encounters files that don't
match any configured sub-repo prefix.
3. Document that loadConfig auto-syncs sub_repos with the filesystem,
so config.json may be rewritten when repos are added or removed.

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.

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.

Projects with "type": "module" in package.json cause Node to treat
gsd-tools.js as ESM, crashing on require(). The .cjs extension forces
CommonJS regardless of the host project's module configuration.

* 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).

* 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

- Each task commits immediately after completion (feat/fix/test/refactor)
- Plan completion commits metadata only (docs: SUMMARY + STATE + ROADMAP)
- Git history becomes primary context source for future Claude sessions
- Better bisect granularity, failure recovery, and revert capabilities
Changes:
- execute-phase.md: Added <task_commit> protocol and per-task commit flow
- execute-plan.md: Updated commit rules and success criteria
- git-integration.md: New task-completion format, strategy rationale
- tdd.md: Aligned TDD commits with standard task commit pattern
- summary.md: Added Task Commits section with commit hashes
- README.md: Rewrote git history section with atomic commit benefits
- scope-estimation.md: Clarified commit counts per plan
- principles.md: Added <atomic_commits> section explaining strategy
Each plan now produces 3-4 commits (2-3 task commits + 1 metadata commit)
instead of single monolithic commit. Optimizes observability for solo
developer + Claude Code workflow.
- Add /gsd:research-phase command for comprehensive ecosystem research
- Rename FINDINGS.md → DISCOVERY.md for clarity
- Rename research-phase.md → discovery-phase.md (shallow "which library")
- New research-phase.md for deep "how experts build this" research
- Creates RESEARCH.md with stack, patterns, pitfalls, don't-hand-roll
- plan-phase loads RESEARCH.md when present
