Fixes#3168
The Claude Code subagent dispatcher tool is named `Agent` (with `subagent_type`
parameter). The `Task*` namespace (TaskCreate, TaskList, TaskGet, TaskUpdate,
TaskOutput, TaskStop) is the separate task-tracker. GSD's commands, workflows,
and agents were partially migrated and still referenced `- Task` / `Task(` in
55 files, causing orchestrators to silently fall back to inline execution when
no `Task` tool appeared on their tool surface.
Changes:
- `commands/gsd/*.md` allowed-tools: replaced `- Task` with `- Agent` in 24
files; removed duplicate `- Task` from autonomous.md (already had `- Agent`)
- `get-shit-done/workflows/*.md`: replaced dispatcher `Task(` → `Agent(` in
29 workflow files (~133 call sites); TaskCreate/List/Get/Update/Output/Stop
left untouched
- `agents/gsd-debug-session-manager.md`: replaced `Task` → `Agent` in tools
frontmatter (the only remaining agent with the wrong name)

* fix(workflows,docs): scrub stale /gsd-code-review-fix and /gsd-plan-milestone-gaps refs (#3029, #3034)
#2790 consolidated /gsd-code-review-fix into /gsd-code-review --fix and
deleted /gsd-plan-milestone-gaps in favor of inline gap planning as part
of /gsd-audit-milestone's output. The deletion was propagated through
some surfaces (#2950 covered help/do/settings/discuss-phase/etc.) but
several user-facing surfaces still emitted the old forms:
#3029 — /gsd-code-review-fix references in:
- agents/gsd-code-fixer.md (description, "Spawned by", recovery prose)
- get-shit-done/workflows/code-review.md (offer text)
- get-shit-done/workflows/execute-phase.md (offer text)
- get-shit-done/workflows/code-review-fix.md (internal retry hints)
- docs/INVENTORY.md (agent + workflow rows)
- docs/CONFIGURATION.md (workflow.code_review row)
- docs/USER-GUIDE.md (3 occurrences in walkthrough)
- docs/AGENTS.md (gsd-code-fixer agent stub)
- docs/FEATURES.md (commands list + REQ-REVIEW-04)
All replaced with /gsd-code-review --fix. Internal retry hints in the
workflow file itself updated to point at the new form. Release notes
(docs/RELEASE-*.md) and gsd-ns-review's "absorbed by" deletion note
left unchanged — historical/explanatory content.
#3034 — /gsd-plan-milestone-gaps references in:
- get-shit-done/workflows/audit-milestone.md (<offer_next> blocks for
gaps_found and tech_debt: lines 281, 323)
- commands/gsd/complete-milestone.md (gaps_found pre-flight: lines 46, 57)
Replaced with inline closure path:
/gsd-phase --insert <N> "Close gap: <REQ-ID> ..."
/gsd-discuss-phase <N>
/gsd-plan-phase <N>
/gsd-execute-phase <N>
Plus a Nyquist-coverage hint pointing at /gsd-validate-phase /
/gsd-secure-phase for retroactive audit-chain hygiene gaps. The
gsd-ns-project SKILL.md "deleted by #2790" note is preserved
(it's the canonical pointer for future readers asking what
happened to the command).
Tests:
- tests/bug-3029-3034-stale-command-routes.test.cjs — parser-based
assertions per fixed surface, plus a structural cross-check that
gsd-ns-project keeps the deletion note. 15 tests, all green.
- 6905/6905 full suite passes.

* fix: address CR feedback on PR #3038 — argument order, structural tests, agent count
CR findings on PR #3038:
1. **docs/USER-GUIDE.md (Major)** — `--fix` examples used flag-first form
(`/gsd-code-review --fix 3`), but the supported CLI grammar is
phase-first (`/gsd-code-review 3 --fix`). The original sed-based
replacement preserved the position of the `gsd-code-review-fix`
token, producing the wrong order. Fixed in USER-GUIDE.md (3
occurrences) and the same drift in the workflow surfaces:
- get-shit-done/workflows/code-review-fix.md (2 retry hints)
- get-shit-done/workflows/code-review.md (offer text)
- get-shit-done/workflows/execute-phase.md (offer text)
2. **docs/AGENTS.md (Minor)** — internal count drift: line 483 said
"Ten additional agents" but line 725 said "12 advanced/specialized".
Filesystem reality: 33 agents total, 21 primary, 12 specialized
(count of `### ` stubs in the Advanced and Specialized section).
Updated lines 3, 13, 483 to use 12/33 and added the two missing
names (doc-classifier, doc-synthesizer) to the inline list at
line 13.
3. **tests:94 (Major refactor suggestion)** — `.includes()` token checks
were source-grep style. Refactored to a typed-IR pattern: extract
the SET of slash-command tokens via regex, assert membership on the
parsed Set instead of substring scanning the raw file text. Added
the `allow-test-rule` comment explaining the IR-build vs
IR-assertion split per scripts/lint-no-source-grep.cjs convention.
4. **tests:130 (Major)** — replacement-path assertion was file-wide and
could false-pass on generic mentions of "inline" elsewhere in the
file. Refactored: `extractOfferBlocks(content)` returns the typed
list of `<offer_next>` and "Pre-flight" blocks where the deleted
command previously lived, and the assertion runs against those
blocks specifically. Now requires `/gsd-phase --insert` or
inline-audit prose to appear in the same offer block, not just
somewhere in the file.
15/15 targeted tests pass. 6905/6905 full suite pass. Lints clean.

Adds ORCHESTRATOR RULE blockquotes immediately after every Task() spawn
in 26 GSD workflow files, instructing the parent orchestrator to stop
working on the task while the subagent is active. This prevents the
parallel-work anti-pattern on Codex runtime where the parent continues
reading files and producing duplicate/conflicting output after spawning.
Rules are placed inline at each spawn point (not as generic headers)
so they are adjacent to and unambiguously associated with each Task()
call. Background Task() spawns get a variant noting not to return to
the spawning context until the subagent reports back.
Closes#2729

* fix(#2636): surface gsd-sdk query failures and add workflow↔handler parity check
Root cause: workflows invoked `gsd-sdk query agent-skills <slug>` with a
trailing `2>/dev/null`, swallowing stderr and exit code. When the installed
`@gsd-build/sdk` npm was stale (pre-query), the call resolved to an empty
string and `agent_skills.<slug>` config was never injected into spawn
prompts — silently. The handler exists on main (sdk/src/query/skills.ts),
so this is a publish-drift + silent-fallback bug, not a missing handler.
Fix:
- Remove bare `2>/dev/null` from every `gsd-sdk query agent-skills …`
invocation in workflows so SDK failures surface to stderr.
- Apply the same rule to other no-fallback calls (audit-open, write-profile,
generate-* profile handlers, frontmatter.get in commands). Best-effort
cleanup calls (config-set workflow._auto_chain_active false) keep
exit-code forgiveness via `|| true` but no longer suppress stderr.
Parity tests:
- New: tests/bug-2636-gsd-sdk-query-silent-swallow.test.cjs — fails if any
`gsd-sdk query agent-skills … 2>/dev/null` is reintroduced.
- Existing: tests/gsd-sdk-query-registry-integration.test.cjs already
asserts every workflow noun resolves to a registered handler; confirmed
passing post-change.
Note: npm republish of @gsd-build/sdk is a separate release concern and is
not included in this PR.
* fix(#2636): address review — restore broken markdown fences and shell syntax
The previous commit's mass removal of '2>/dev/null' suffixes also
collapsed adjacent closing code fences and 'fi' tokens onto the
command line, producing malformed markdown blocks and 'truefi' /
'true fi' shell syntax errors in the workflows.
Repaired sites:
- commands/gsd/quick.md, thread.md (frontmatter.get fences)
- workflows/complete-milestone.md (audit-open fence)
- workflows/profile-user.md (write-profile + generate-* fences)
- workflows/verify-work.md (audit-open --json fence)
- workflows/execute-phase.md (truefi -> true / fi)
- workflows/plan-phase.md, discuss-phase-assumptions.md,
discuss-phase/modes/chain.md (true fi -> true / fi)
All 5450 tests pass.
Commands are now installed as commands/gsd/<name>.md and invoked as
/gsd:<name> in Claude Code. The old hyphen form /gsd-<name> was still
hardcoded in hundreds of places across workflows, references, templates,
lib modules, and command files — causing "Unknown command" errors
whenever GSD suggested a command to the user.
Replace all /gsd-<cmd> occurrences where <cmd> is a known command name
(derived at runtime from commands/gsd/*.md) using a targeted Node.js
script. Agent names, tool names (gsd-sdk, gsd-tools), directory names,
and path fragments are not touched.
Adds regression test tests/bug-2543-gsd-slash-namespace.test.cjs that
enforces zero legacy occurrences going forward. Removes inverted
tests/stale-colon-refs.test.cjs (bug #1748) which enforced the now-obsolete
hyphen form; the new bug-2543 test supersedes it. Updates 5 assertion
tests that hardcoded the old hyphen form to accept the new colon form.

* fix(phase): preserve zero-padded prefix in renameDecimalPhases

* 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
---------
Co-authored-by: Claude Opus 4.6 <noreply@anthropic.com>
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.

Add agent_skills config section that maps agent types to skill directory
paths. At spawn time, workflows load configured skills and inject them
as <agent_skills> blocks in Task() prompts, giving subagents access to
project-specific skill files.
Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.6 (1M context) <noreply@anthropic.com>
PR #1139 added <available_agent_types> sections to execute-phase.md and
plan-phase.md to prevent /clear from causing silent fallback to
general-purpose. However, 14 other workflows and 2 commands that also
spawn named GSD agents were missed, leaving them vulnerable to the same
regression after /clear.
Added <available_agent_types> listing to: research-phase, quick,
audit-milestone, diagnose-issues, discuss-phase-assumptions,
execute-plan, map-codebase, new-milestone, new-project, ui-phase,
ui-review, validate-phase, verify-work (workflows) and debug,
research-phase (commands).
Added regression test that enforces every workflow/command spawning
named subagent_type must have a matching <available_agent_types>
section listing all spawned types.

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.

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

When gsd-tools init output exceeds 50KB, core.cjs writes to a temp file

* feat: add /gsd:validate-phase command and gsd-nyquist-auditor agent
Retroactively applies Nyquist validation to already-executed phases.
Works mid-milestone and post-milestone. Detects existing test coverage,
maps gaps to phase requirements, writes missing tests, debugs failing
ones, and produces {phase}-VALIDATION.md from existing artifacts.
Handles three states: VALIDATION.md exists (audit + update), no
VALIDATION.md (reconstruct from PLAN.md + SUMMARY.md), phase not yet
executed (exit cleanly with guidance).

* feat: audit-milestone reports Nyquist compliance gaps across phases
Adds Nyquist coverage table to audit-milestone output when
