* feat(i18n): add response_language config for cross-phase language consistency
Adds `response_language` config key that propagates through all init
outputs via withProjectRoot(). Workflows read this field and instruct
agents to present user-facing questions in the configured language,
solving the problem of language preference resetting at phase boundaries.
Usage: gsd-tools config-set response_language "Portuguese"

* fix: replace /gsd: command format with /gsd- skill format in all suggestions
All next-step suggestions shown to users were still using the old colon
format (/gsd:xxx) which cannot be copy-pasted as skills. Migrated all
occurrences across agents/, commands/, get-shit-done/, docs/, README files,
bin/install.js (hardcoded defaults for claude runtime), and
get-shit-done/bin/lib/*.cjs (generate-claude-md templates and error messages).
Updated tests to assert new hyphen format instead of old colon format.

* fix: migrate remaining /gsd: format to /gsd- in hooks, workflows, and sdk
Addresses remaining user-facing occurrences missed in the initial migration:
- hooks/: fix 4 user-facing messages (pause-work, update, fast, quick)
and 2 comments in gsd-workflow-guard.js
- get-shit-done/workflows/: fix 21 Skill() literal calls that Claude
executes directly (installer does not transform workflow content)
- sdk/prompt-sanitizer.ts: update regex to strip /gsd- format in addition
to legacy /gsd: format; update JSDoc comment
- tests/: update autonomous-ui-steps, prompt-sanitizer to assert new format
Note: commands/gsd/*.md frontmatter (name: gsd:xxx) intentionally unchanged
— installer derives skillName from directory path, not the name field.

* fix(plan-phase): preserve --chain flag in auto-advance sync and handle ui-phase gate in chain mode
Bug 1: step 15 sync-flag check only guarded against --auto, causing
_auto_chain_active to be cleared when plan-phase is invoked without
--auto in ARGUMENTS even though a --chain pipeline was active. Added
--chain to the guard condition, matching discuss-phase behaviour.
Bug 2: UI Design Contract gate (step 5.6) always exited the workflow
when UI-SPEC was missing, breaking the discuss --chain pipeline
silently. When _auto_chain_active is true, the gate now auto-invokes
gsd-ui-phase --auto via Skill() and continues to step 6 without
prompting. Manual invocations retain the existing AskUserQuestion flow.
* fix: remove <sub>/clear</sub> pattern and duplicate old-format command in discuss-phase.md

The gsd-verifier was reporting false-positive gaps for items explicitly
scheduled in later phases of the milestone (e.g., reporting a Phase 5
item as a gap during Phase 1 verification). This adds Step 9b to
cross-reference gaps against later phases using `roadmap analyze` and
move matched items to a `deferred` list that does not affect status.

The Next Up blocks showed the main command first, then /clear as a <sub>
footnote saying 'first'. Users would copy-paste the command before noticing
they should have cleared first. This restructures all 41 instances across
19 workflow files and 2 reference files so /clear appears before the
command as a clear sequential instruction.

* test: add failing tests for planner modular decomposition
- Assert gsd-planner.md is under 45K after extraction (currently ~50K)
- Assert three reference files exist (gap-closure, revision, reviews)
- Assert planner contains reference pointers to each extracted file
- Assert each reference file contains key content from the original mode
* feat(agents): modular decomposition of gsd-planner.md to fix 50K char limit
Extracts three non-standard mode sections from gsd-planner.md into dedicated
reference files loaded on-demand, and calibrates the security scanner to use
a per-file-type threshold (100K for agent source files vs 50K for user input).
Structural changes:
- Extract <gap_closure_mode> → get-shit-done/references/planner-gap-closure.md
- Extract <revision_mode> → get-shit-done/references/planner-revision.md
- Extract <reviews_mode> → get-shit-done/references/planner-reviews.md
- Add <load_mode_context> step in execution_flow (conditional lazy loading)
- gsd-planner.md: 50,112 → 45,352 chars (well under new 45K target)
Security scanner fix:
- Split agent file check: injection patterns (unchanged) + separate 100K size limit
- The 50K strict-mode limit was designed for user-supplied input, not trusted source files
- Agent files still have a size guard to catch accidental bloat
Partially addresses #1495
* fix(tests): normalize CRLF before measuring planner file size
Windows git checkouts add \r per line, inflating String.length by ~1150 chars
for a 1,400-line file. The 45K threshold test failed on windows-latest because
45,352 chars (Linux) became 46,507 chars (Windows). Apply the same CRLF
normalization pattern used in tests/reachability-check.test.cjs.

Bring the latest main branch updates into feat/kilo-runtime-support while preserving KILO_CONFIG resolution, Kilo agent permission conversion, and relative .claude path rewrites.
The map-codebase workflow had a hardcoded 300000ms (5 minute) timeout
for parallel subagent tasks. On large codebases or with slower models
(e.g. GPT via Codex), subagents can need 10-20+ minutes, causing the
parent to kill still-working agents and fall back to sequential mode.
Changes:
- Add workflow.subagent_timeout config key (default: 300000ms)
- Register in VALID_CONFIG_KEYS (config.cjs)
- Add to loadConfig() defaults and return object (core.cjs)
- Emit in map-codebase init context (init.cjs)
- Update map-codebase.md to use config value instead of hardcoded 300000
- Document in planning-config.md reference
Users can now increase the timeout via:
/gsd:settings workflow.subagent_timeout 900000

Adds `git.base_branch` config option that controls the target branch
for PRs and merges. When unset, auto-detects from origin/HEAD and
falls back to "main".
This fixes projects using `master`, `develop`, or any other default
branch — previously `/gsd:ship` would create PRs targeting `main`
(which may not exist) and `/gsd:complete-milestone` would try to
checkout `main` and fail.
Changes:
- config.cjs: add git.base_branch to valid config keys
- planning-config.md: document the option with auto-detect behavior
- ship.md: detect base branch at init, use in PR create, branch
detection, push report, and completion report
- complete-milestone.md: detect base branch, use for squash merge
and merge-with-history checkout targets
- 1 new test for config-set git.base_branch
Usage:
gsd-tools config-set git.base_branch master
Or auto-detect (default — reads origin/HEAD):
git.base_branch: null

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)

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 --pick flag to gsd-tools.cjs for extracting a single field from
JSON output, replacing all jq pipe usage across workflow and reference
files. Since Node.js is already a hard dependency, this eliminates the
need for jq on systems where it is not installed (notably Windows).
Changes:
- gsd-tools.cjs: add --pick <field> global flag with dot-notation and
bracket syntax support (e.g., --pick section, --pick directories[-1])
- Replace 15 jq pipe patterns across 6 workflow/reference files with
--pick flag or inline Node.js one-liner for variable extraction
- Add regression tests for --pick flag behavior

1. Gate findProjectRoot to commands that access .planning/ — skip for
pure-utility commands (generate-slug, current-timestamp, template,

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,

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.

MSYS curl on Windows has SSL/TLS failures and path mangling issues.
Replaced curl references in checkpoint and phase-prompt templates with

- checkpoints.md: server readiness check uses fetch() instead of curl
- checkpoints.md: added cross-platform note about curl vs fetch
- checkpoints.md: verify tags use fetch instead of curl
- phase-prompt.md: verify tags use fetch instead of curl
Partially addresses #899 (patch 1 of 6)
Users on OpenRouter or local models get unexpected API costs because
GSD's default 'balanced' profile spawns specific Anthropic models for
subagents. The 'inherit' profile exists but wasn't well-documented for

- model-profiles.md: add 'Using Non-Anthropic Models' section explaining
when and how to use inherit profile
- model-profiles.md: update inherit description to mention OpenRouter and
local models
- settings.md: update Inherit option description to mention OpenRouter
and local models (was only mentioning OpenCode)
Closes#1036
When gsd-tools init output exceeds 50KB, core.cjs writes to a temp file

Introduce ephemeral `workflow._auto_chain_active` flag to separate chain
propagation from the user's persistent `workflow.auto_advance` preference.
Previously, `workflow.auto_advance` was set to true by --auto chains and
only cleared at milestone completion. If a chain was interrupted (context
limit, crash, user abort), the flag persisted in .planning/config.json
and caused all subsequent manual invocations to auto-advance unexpectedly.
The fix adds a "sync chain flag with intent" step to discuss-phase,
plan-phase, and execute-phase workflows: when --auto is NOT in arguments,
the ephemeral _auto_chain_active flag is cleared. The persistent
auto_advance setting (from /gsd:settings) is never touched, preserving
the user's deliberate preference.

* 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
