* test(#3894): research_before_questions must resolve globally and order quick.md (failing first) * fix(#3894): quick path honors workflow.research_before_questions; key resolves from global defaults Two layers, one key. The quick workflow ran its discussion phase before its research phase unconditionally — neither quick.md nor its steps ever read workflow.research_before_questions, though the key is documented, schema-registered, /gsd-settings-writable, and honored by /gsd-discuss-phase and /gsd-new-project. A gray-area answer given without research is then written to <quick_id>-CONTEXT.md as a locked decision downstream agents are told not to revisit — an evidence-free choice made unfalsifiable (the reporter's #3714 misresolution). - quick.md Step 4 now carries the same research-before-questions check the two honoring paths make: when enabled, research-phase executes before discussion-phase; false/unset keeps the written order. Both sections stay section-manifest gated. - src/config-loader.cts forwarded workflow.post_planning_gaps from ~/.gsd/defaults.json but silently dropped this key — same file, same nesting, one resolved and one didn't. Now forwarded with the same flat + nested-alias fallback shape, added to the resolution-keys lockstep canary and the #3532 shadowed-warning set (nested alias reporting generalized over both keys). Emitted-Drift-Ack-Growth: quick.md — #3894: +Step 4 ordering rule (the research-before-questions check the discuss-phase and new-project paths already make); a real behavioral gate, not incidental bloat. * fix(#3894): review fold-ins — gate the CONTEXT.md reference, colon slash-forms - quick/steps/research-phase.md directed the researcher subagent to read <quick_id>-CONTEXT.md under DISCUSS_MODE with no existence hedge — but under the new ordering (research BEFORE discussion) the file cannot exist yet when the researcher is dispatched. The reference now says read-only-if-present with the #3894 reason; the alignment purpose still applies on the default ordering. - quick.md's new rule used the hyphen slash forms (/gsd-discuss-phase, /gsd-new-project); source artifacts under gsd-core/workflows must author the colon form the install-time converters key on — the same file already uses /gsd:new-project and /gsd:quick elsewhere. * docs(#3894): planning-config row names the flat CONFIG_DEFAULTS alias config-field-docs requires every CONFIG_DEFAULTS key to appear in the doc; the row documented the canonical namespaced form only. Adds the same alias sentence post_planning_gaps's row carries, plus the #3894 quick-path note. * chore(#3894): changeset fragment (pr number backfilled after PR creation) * chore(#3894): backfill changeset PR number (4047) --------- Co-authored-by: sim <sim@local>
Changeset Fragments
This directory holds per-PR CHANGELOG fragments. Every PR with user-facing changes drops one (or more) <random-name>.md files here describing its CHANGELOG entry. Fragments are consolidated into the top-level CHANGELOG.md at release time.
Why
Two PRs that both edit the ### Fixed block of CHANGELOG.md always conflict on merge — git can't pick a serialization order without human input. Two PRs that each add a fresh .changeset/<unique-name>.md never conflict because they don't share lines.
See #2975 for the full rationale.
Adding a fragment
node scripts/changeset/new.cjs \
--type Fixed \
--pr 1234 \
--body "fix the thing — explain the user-visible change in one sentence"
This writes .changeset/<adjective>-<noun>-<noun>.md with frontmatter and a body. Three random words → concurrent PRs don't collide.
Format
---
type: Fixed
pr: 1234
---
**`/gsd-foo` no longer drops trailing slashes** — explain the user-visible change.
Allowed type: values follow Keep a Changelog: Added, Changed, Deprecated, Removed, Fixed, Security.
Opting out
PRs that legitimately have no user-facing impact can add the no-changelog label. CI honors it. When unsure, add the fragment.
At release time
Promotion is automatic. The release workflow's finalize job runs:
node scripts/changeset/cli.cjs render --version vX.Y.Z --date YYYY-MM-DD --allow-empty
This reads every fragment, groups bullets by type:, replaces ## [Unreleased] with a new ## [vX.Y.Z] - YYYY-MM-DD block, opens a fresh ## [Unreleased] above, and deletes consumed fragments. The --allow-empty flag ensures a no-change release still gets a dated heading (with a _No notable changes._ placeholder). A subsequent verify step confirms the promotion landed correctly. Maintainers do not run this by hand.
Archived fragments
.changeset/archived/ holds fragments for already-shipped releases (≤ 1.3.1), retained for provenance. Their content was hand-curated into the dated ## [1.x.y] sections of CHANGELOG.md during the #690 backfill — they were never consumed by render. All changeset tooling enumerates .changeset/ non-recursively, so archived fragments are never picked up or rendered. Do not move them back to the top level.
