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(#2767): pass paths via --files to gsd-sdk query commit + lint guard
Workflows, agents, commands, and references passed file paths positionally
to `gsd-sdk query commit`, which silently appended them to the commit
subject and triggered the `.planning/` wholesale-stage fallback in
sdk/src/query/commit.ts:136. Regression of #733/#798.
Inserted `--files` before the path list at every site (81 invocations
across 50 files). Added tests/bug-2767-gsd-sdk-commit-files-flag.test.cjs
as a permanent lint that scans every shipped .md file and asserts each
`gsd-sdk query commit[-to-subrepo]` invocation either uses `--files` or
carries no path arguments.
Closes#2767
* test(#2767): replace source-grep with behavioral SDK test
The original test walked every shipped .md file and regex-tokenized
`gsd-sdk query commit` invocations to assert `--files` was present.
CONTRIBUTING.md prohibits this source-grep pattern.
Rewrite as behavioral SDK tests against `sdk/dist/cli.js` over a real
tmp git project (createTempGitProject helper). Cover both the
well-formed (`--files <paths>`) form — clean subject, exactly-staged
files, .planning/ left untouched — and the buggy positional form,
asserting the documented misbehavior (paths leak into subject + the
`.planning/` wholesale-stage fallback at commit.ts:136). Also asserts
`commit-to-subrepo` rejects when `--files` is omitted (commit.ts:258).
The doc-lint is retained as a supplementary defense-in-depth guard
since agent-prompt markdown invocations cannot be exercised end-to-end
— but it is no longer the primary contract.
* docs(#2767): correct contradictory --files guidance in zh-CN/en docs + fix test docstring
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.
The /gsd:new-milestone workflow Step 5 rewrote STATE.md's Current Position
body but never touched the YAML frontmatter, so every downstream reader
(state.json, getMilestoneInfo, progress bars) kept reporting the stale
milestone until the first phase advance forced a resync. Asymmetric with
milestone.complete, which uses readModifyWriteStateMdFull.
Add a new `state milestone-switch` handler (both SDK and CJS) that atomically:
- Stomps frontmatter milestone/milestone_name with caller-supplied values
- Resets status to 'planning' and progress counters to zero
- Rewrites the ## Current Position section to the new-milestone template
- Preserves Accumulated Context (decisions, blockers, todos)
Wire the workflow Step 5 to invoke `state.milestone-switch` instead of the
manual body rewrite. Note the flag is `--milestone` not `--version`:
gsd-tools reserves `--version` as a globally-invalid help flag.
Red vitest in sdk/src/query/state-mutation.test.ts asserts the frontmatter
reset. Regression guard via node:test in tests/bug-2630-*.test.cjs runs
through gsd-tools end-to-end.

* fix(workflows): agent-skills query keys must match subagent_type
Eight workflow files called `gsd-sdk query agent-skills <KEY>` with
a key that did not match any `subagent_type` Task() spawns in the
same workflow (or any existing `agents/<KEY>.md`):
- research-phase.md:45 — gsd-researcher → gsd-phase-researcher
- plan-phase.md:36 — gsd-researcher → gsd-phase-researcher
- plan-phase.md:38 — gsd-checker → gsd-plan-checker
- quick.md:145 — gsd-checker → gsd-plan-checker
- verify-work.md:36 — gsd-checker → gsd-plan-checker
- new-milestone.md:207 — gsd-synthesizer → gsd-research-synthesizer
- new-project.md:63 — gsd-synthesizer → gsd-research-synthesizer
- ui-review.md:21 — gsd-ui-reviewer → gsd-ui-auditor
- discuss-phase.md:114 — gsd-advisor → gsd-advisor-researcher
Effect before this fix: users configuring `agent_skills.<correct-type>`
in .planning/config.json got no injection on these paths because the
workflow asked the SDK for a different (non-existent) key. The SDK
correctly returned "" for the unknown key, which then interpolated as
an empty string into the Task() prompt. Silent no-op.
The discuss-phase advisor case is a subtle variant — the spawn site
uses `subagent_type="general-purpose"` and loads the agent role via
`Read(~/.claude/agents/gsd-advisor-researcher.md)`. The injection key
must follow the agent identity (gsd-advisor-researcher), not the
technical spawn type.
This is a follow-up to #2555 — the SDK-side fix in that PR (#2587)
only becomes fully effective once the call sites use the right keys.
Adds `sdk/src/workflow-agent-skills-consistency.test.ts` as a
contract test: every `agent-skills <slug>` invocation in
`get-shit-done/workflows/**/*.md` must reference an existing
`agents/<slug>.md`. Fails loudly on future key typos.
Closes#2615
* test: harden workflow agent-skills regex per review feedback
Review (#2616): CodeRabbit flagged the `agent-skills <slug>` pattern
as too permissive (can match prose mentions of the string) and the
per-line scan as brittle (misses commands wrapped across lines).
- Require full `gsd-sdk query agent-skills` prefix before capture
+ `\b` around the pattern so prose references no longer match.
- Scan each file's full content (not line-by-line) so `\s+` can span
newlines; resolve 1-based line number from match index.
- Add JSDoc on helpers and on QUERY_KEY_PATTERN.
Verified: RED against base (`f30da83`) produces the same 9 violations
as before; GREEN on fixed tree.

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.

AskUserQuestion is a Claude Code-only tool. When running GSD on OpenAI Codex,
Gemini CLI, or other non-Claude runtimes, the model renders the tool call as a
markdown code block instead of executing it, so the interactive TUI never
appears and the session stalls without collecting user input.
The workflow.text_mode / --text flag mechanism already handles this in 5 of
the 37 affected workflows. This commit adds the same TEXT_MODE fallback
instruction to all remaining 32 workflows so that, when text_mode is enabled,
every AskUserQuestion call is replaced with a plain-text numbered list that
any runtime can handle.

* 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.

The Next Up blocks showed the main command first, then /clear as a <sub>

command as a clear sequential instruction.

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)

The <evolution> block in templates/project.md defined requirement lifecycle
rules (validate, invalidate, add, log decisions) but these instructions
only existed in the template — they never made it into the generated

- new-project.md: Add ## Evolution section to generated PROJECT.md with
the phase transition and milestone review checklists
- new-milestone.md: Ensure ## Evolution section exists in PROJECT.md
(backfills for projects created before this feature)
- execute-phase.md: Add .planning/PROJECT.md to executor <files_to_read>
so executors have project context (core value, requirements, evolution)
- templates/project.md: Add comment noting the <evolution> block is
implemented by transition.md and complete-milestone.md
- docs/ARCHITECTURE.md, docs/FEATURES.md: Note evolution rules in
PROJECT.md descriptions
- CHANGELOG.md: Document the new Evolution section and executor context

Two bugs caused workflow.research to silently reset to false:
1. new-milestone.md unconditionally overwrote workflow.research via
config-set after asking about research — coupling a per-milestone
decision to a persistent user preference. Now the research question
is per-invocation only; persistent config changes via /gsd:settings.
2. verify.cjs health repair (createConfig/resetConfig) used flat keys
(research, plan_checker, verifier) instead of the canonical nested
workflow object from config.cjs, also missing branch templates,
nyquist_validation, and brave_search fields.
