Unify gap handling - whether discovered by code verification or user
testing, gaps feed into the same plan-phase --gaps workflow.
Changes:
- Delete commands/gsd/plan-fix.md (redundant)
- Update verify-work to route to plan-phase --gaps
- Update progress Route E to detect UAT gaps
- Change UAT.md "Issues" section to "Gaps" with YAML format
- Extend plan-phase --gaps to read from both VERIFICATION.md and UAT.md
- Update diagnose-issues to output gaps in YAML format
- Update all references (debug, templates, workflows)
One path: gap discovered → diagnosed → plan-phase --gaps → fixed

When ROADMAP.md is missing but PROJECT.md exists (after complete-milestone),
progress now correctly routes to /gsd:discuss-milestone instead of suggesting
new-project.

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

Adds /gsd:add-todo and /gsd:check-todos commands for capturing
ideas during work sessions without losing context.
Features:
- Capture todos from conversation context or explicit description
- Structured frontmatter (created, title, area, files)
- Area inference from file paths for grouping
- Duplicate detection before creating
- Filter todos by area
- Route to appropriate action (work now, add to phase, brainstorm)
- Git commits on capture and when starting work
Closes#48

- Create plan-fix command to generate FIX.md from ISSUES.md
- Add Route E to progress.md for detecting unaddressed UAT issues
- Add verify-work and plan-fix to README commands table
- Credit OracleGreyBeard for verify-work contribution

- Rewrite offer_next step in execute-phase.md as mandatory verification gate
- Rewrite offer_next_phase step in transition.md with explicit verification
- Rewrite route step in progress.md with numbered verification steps
- Replace broken regex [0-9] (only matched single digits) with ROADMAP.md reading
- Add decision tables mapping conditions to explicit routes (A, B, C, D)
- Require Claude to "State the counts" before any routing decision
- Add "Do NOT skip this verification" instruction to prevent premature completion claims
Fixes issue where Claude would declare "phase complete" or "milestone complete"
without verifying remaining plans actually exist.

PROJECT.md evolves throughout project lifecycle:
- Requirements have states: Validated, Active, Out of Scope
- Decisions track outcomes: Good, Revisit, Pending
- Phase transitions update requirements and log decisions
- Milestone completions trigger full PROJECT.md review
STATE.md now references PROJECT.md (not a copy):
- Claude reads PROJECT.md directly for full context
- Smaller STATE.md footprint (~100 lines)
- Project Reference section with core value and focus
Brownfield projects infer Validated requirements from existing code.

Shell commands in <context> sections using !` backticks trigger
permission checks for users not in dangerously-skip-permissions mode.
Replaced with @-file references where needed; process logic handles
missing files via allowed tools (Read, Glob, Grep).
Affected commands: new-project, progress, create-roadmap,
research-project, pause-work, consider-issues

End-of-command workflows now show explicit instructions to run /clear
and paste the next command, rather than offering numbered options that
invoke SlashCommand directly. This prevents users from accidentally
exhausting context by continuing work in the same session.
- Updated 16 files (commands and workflows)
- YOLO mode auto-continues preserved (user explicitly chose automation)
- In-workflow decisions like consider-issues preserved
