Remove the global ISSUES.md deferred enhancement tracking system.
- Delete /gsd:consider-issues command (never used)
- Delete issues.md template (never instantiated)
- Remove Rule 5 from deviation rules (never triggered)
- Remove all ISSUES.md, ISS-XXX, and "deferred issues" references
- Update STATE.md to track pending todos instead
The ISSUES.md system was designed to capture non-critical enhancements
during plan execution via "Rule 5", but it never fired in practice
across 100+ projects. The system added ~350 lines of dead code.
The /gsd:add-todo and /gsd:check-todos system serves the same purpose
and is actually used.
Note: UAT *-ISSUES.md files (per-plan, created by /gsd:verify-work)
are unaffected - those are a separate, active system.
Closes#56

Resume fails when subagents use parallel tool calls due to Claude Code
serialization bug (consecutive assistant entries with same message ID).
Solution: Subagents return structured checkpoint state, orchestrator
spawns fresh agent with continuation-prompt template instead of resuming.
New files:
- templates/checkpoint-return.md: Structured format with completed tasks table
- templates/continuation-prompt.md: Template for spawning continuation agent
Updated:
- templates/subagent-task-prompt.md: Reference checkpoint-return, remove resume language
- workflows/execute-phase.md: Replace Task(resume=id) with fresh agent spawn
- workflows/execute-plan.md: Update checkpoint_return_for_orchestrator step

- execute-plan.md: Add checkpoint_return_for_orchestrator step
explaining how to return at checkpoints when spawned via Task tool
- subagent-task-prompt.md: Add checkpoint_behavior and completion_format
sections to guide agents on returning for checkpoints
Tested: Task resume works - agent pauses at checkpoint, returns with
details, orchestrator presents to user, resumes with Task(resume=id).
Parallel agents each get unique agent_id for independent resume.
