`context: fork` strips the `Agent` tool from a subagent's environment.
Spawning orchestrators (`/gsd-autonomous`, `/gsd-execute-phase`,
`/gsd-plan-phase`) depend on `Agent` to dispatch sub-agents; running
them forked silently disables the core capability they exist to provide
(#921). Remove `context: fork` from all three command frontmatter files.
`effort: xhigh` (introduced by #769) is preserved.
The `<runtime_compatibility>` Agent-availability guard added by #913 was
checking whether `Agent` was present *before* attempting the call. On
runtimes where the tool list is dynamically resolved this produced
false-negative aborts in sessions that have the tool (#922). Replace
the introspection-based pattern with an attempt-based gate: always
attempt the `Agent()` call; stop only if a real tool-unavailable error
is returned. This preserves #853's backgrounded-session close-off and
false negatives.
Tests updated: enh-769-context-fork-effort.install.test.cjs asserts the
three orchestrators lack `context: fork` and that the converter still
passes the field through for non-orchestrator commands; plan-phase-drift-
guard.test.cjs adds four assertions for the attempt-based gate language;
workflow-size-budget unchanged (budgets not exceeded).

Orchestrator stays lean: discover plans, analyze dependencies, group into waves, spawn subagents, collect results. Each subagent loads the full execute-plan context and handles its own plan.
Optional wave filter:
--wave Nexecutes only WaveNfor pacing, quota management, or staged rollout- phase verification/completion still only happens when no incomplete plans remain after the selected wave finishes
Flag handling rule:
- The optional flags documented below are available behaviors, not implied active behaviors
- A flag is active only when its literal token appears in
$ARGUMENTS - If a documented flag is absent from
$ARGUMENTS, treat it as inactive
Context budget: ~15% orchestrator, 100% fresh per subagent.

Copilot (VS Code): Use vscode_askquestions wherever this workflow calls AskUserQuestion. They are equivalent — vscode_askquestions is the VS Code Copilot implementation of the same interactive question API.

Available optional flags (documentation only — not automatically active):
--wave N— Execute only WaveNin the phase. Use when you want to pace execution or stay inside usage limits.--gaps-only— Execute only gap closure plans (plans withgap_closure: truein frontmatter). Use after verify-work creates fix plans.--interactive— Execute plans sequentially inline (no subagents) with user checkpoints between tasks. Lower token usage, pair-programming style. Best for small phases, bug fixes, and verification gaps.
Active flags must be derived from $ARGUMENTS:
--wave Nis active only if the literal--wavetoken is present in$ARGUMENTS--gaps-onlyis active only if the literal--gaps-onlytoken is present in$ARGUMENTS--interactiveis active only if the literal--interactivetoken is present in$ARGUMENTS- If none of these tokens appear, run the standard full-phase execution flow with no flag-specific filtering
- Do not infer that a flag is active just because it is documented in this prompt
Context files are resolved inside the workflow via gsd-tools query init.execute-phase and per-subagent <files_to_read> blocks.
