<objective>
Create project roadmap with phase breakdown.

Roadmaps define what work happens in what order. Phases map to requirements.

Run after `/gsd:define-requirements`.
</objective>

@.planning/REQUIREMENTS.md
@.planning/research/SUMMARY.md (if exists)
</context>

<process>

<step name="validate">
```bash
# Verify project exists
[ -f .planning/PROJECT.md ] || { echo "ERROR: No PROJECT.md found. Run /gsd:new-project first."; exit 1; }

# Verify requirements exist
[ -f .planning/REQUIREMENTS.md ] || { echo "ERROR: No REQUIREMENTS.md found. Run /gsd:define-requirements first."; exit 1; }
```
</step>

<step name="check_existing">
Check if roadmap already exists:

```bash
[ -f .planning/ROADMAP.md ] && echo "ROADMAP_EXISTS" || echo "NO_ROADMAP"
```

**If ROADMAP_EXISTS:**
Use AskUserQuestion:
- header: "Roadmap exists"
- question: "A roadmap already exists. What would you like to do?"
- options:
  - "View existing" - Show current roadmap
  - "Replace" - Create new roadmap (will overwrite)
  - "Cancel" - Keep existing roadmap

If "View existing": `cat .planning/ROADMAP.md` and exit
If "Cancel": Exit
If "Replace": Continue with workflow
</step>

<step name="create_roadmap">
Follow the create-roadmap.md workflow starting from identify_phases step.

The workflow handles:
- Loading requirements
- Phase identification mapped to requirements
- Requirement coverage validation (no orphaned requirements)
- Research flags for each phase
- Confirmation gates (respecting config mode)
- ROADMAP.md creation with requirement mappings
- STATE.md initialization
- REQUIREMENTS.md traceability update
- Phase directory creation
- Git commit
</step>

<step name="done">
```
Roadmap created:
- Roadmap: .planning/ROADMAP.md
- State: .planning/STATE.md
- [N] phases defined

## ▶ Next Up

**Phase 1: [Name]** — [Goal from ROADMAP.md]

`/gsd:plan-phase 1`

<sub>`/clear` first → fresh context window</sub>

**Also available:**
- `/gsd:discuss-phase 1` — gather context first
- `/gsd:research-phase 1` — investigate unknowns
- Review roadmap
