The verifier agent could set status: passed even when the report contained
a non-empty "Human Verification Required" section. This bypassed the
human_needed → HUMAN-UAT.md → user approval gate, allowing phases to be
marked complete without human testing.
Replace the advisory status descriptions with an ordered decision tree
(most restrictive first): gaps_found → human_needed → passed. The passed
status is now only valid when zero human verification items exist.
Synced the same decision tree in the verify-phase workflow.

Address 4 root causes of Windows + Claude Code reliability issues:
1. Workflow shell robustness: add || true guards to informational commands
(ls, grep, find, cat) that return non-zero on "no results", preventing
workflow step failures under strict execution models. Guard glob loops
with [ -e "$var" ] || continue to handle empty glob expansion.
2. Hook stdin handling: replace readFileSync('/dev/stdin') with async
process.stdin + timeout in agent templates (gsd-verifier.md). Existing
JS hooks already have timeout guards.
3. project_root detection: fix isInsideGitRepo() to check .git at the
candidate parent level (not just below it), enabling correct detection
when .git and .planning/ are siblings at the same directory level —
the common single-repo case from a subdirectory.
4. @file: handoff: add missing @file: handlers to autonomous.md and
manager.md workflows that call gsd-tools init but lacked the handler
for large output payloads.
Fixes#1343

Three additive quality improvements to the execution pipeline:
1. Pre-wave dependency check (execute-phase): Before spawning wave N+1,
verify key-links from prior wave artifacts. Catches cross-plan wiring
gaps before they cascade into downstream failures.
2. Cross-Plan Data Contracts dimension (plan-checker): New Dimension 9
checks that plans sharing data pipelines have compatible transformations.
Flags when one plan strips data another plan needs in original form.
3. Export-level spot check (verify-phase): After Level 3 wiring passes,
spot-check individual exports for actual usage. Catches dead stores
that exist in wired files but are never called.
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.

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.

The verifier was deriving verification truths from the vague one-line Goal
field, allowing partial implementations to pass. Now extracts Success Criteria
as a structured array from `roadmap get-phase` and uses them directly as truths,
with Goal derivation as fallback for older ROADMAPs without Success Criteria.

* 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.

Add proper @-references to three reference files that existed
but were never loaded:
- git-integration.md -> execute-plan.md
- continuation-format.md -> resume-project.md
- verification-patterns.md -> verify-phase.md
- 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

Commands load agent expertise directly via Task tool spawning.
Thin orchestrator pattern — agents have methodology baked in.
