Lex Christopherson 5182cec774 feat(01-01): Split new-project to only create PROJECT.md + config.json
- Removed roadmap_and_state step from new-project command
- new-project now offers research-project or create-roadmap as next steps
- Updated help.md with new 5-step Quick Start flow
- Documented research-project and create-roadmap commands in help

description: Initialize a new project with deep context gathering and PROJECT.md
allowed-tools:

<!--
DESIGN NOTE: Initialization Only
This command handles project initialization only:
- Deep context gathering through questioning
- PROJECT.md creation
- config.json with workflow mode
Roadmap creation is now a separate step via /gsd:create-roadmap.
This allows optional research (/gsd:research-project) between initialization and roadmap.
-->
<objective>
Initialize a new project through comprehensive context gathering.
This is the most leveraged moment in any project. Deep questioning here means better plans, better execution, better outcomes.
Creates `.planning/` with PROJECT.md and config.json.

!`[ -d .git ] && echo "GIT_EXISTS" || echo "NO_GIT"`
</context>
<process>
<step name="setup" silent="true">
Silent setup - execute before any user output:
```bash
# Abort if project exists
[ -d .planning ] && echo "Project already initialized. Use /gsd:progress" && exit 1
# Initialize git
[ -d .git ] || git init
```
</step>
<step name="question">
Start: "What do you want to build?"
Then use AskUserQuestion to cover the 9 domains (project type, problem, audience, success, constraints, scope, current state, decisions, open questions).
Skip domains already clear from user input. Probe for specifics on vague answers.
**Decision gate (MUST have all 3 options):**
```
Header: "Ready?"
Options:
1. "Create PROJECT.md" - Finalize
2. "Ask more questions" - Dig into uncovered domains
3. "Let me add context" - User shares more
```
If "Ask more questions" → ask about 2-3 uncovered domains → return to gate.
Loop until "Create PROJECT.md" selected.
</step>
<step name="project">
Synthesize all context into `.planning/PROJECT.md` using the template from `templates/project.md`.
Do not compress. Capture everything gathered.
</step>
<step name="mode">
Ask workflow mode preference:
Use AskUserQuestion:
- header: "Mode"
- question: "How do you want to work?"
- options:
- "Interactive" - Confirm at each step
- "YOLO" - Auto-approve, just execute
Create `.planning/config.json` with chosen mode using `templates/config.json` structure.
</step>
<step name="commit">
```bash
git add .planning/PROJECT.md .planning/config.json
git commit -m "$(cat <<'EOF'
docs: initialize [project-name]
[One-liner from PROJECT.md]
Creates PROJECT.md with vision and requirements.
EOF
)"
```
</step>
<step name="done">
```
Project initialized:
- Project: .planning/PROJECT.md
- Config: .planning/config.json (mode: [chosen mode])
What's next?
1. Research domain ecosystem (/gsd:research-project) - For niche/complex domains
2. Create roadmap (/gsd:create-roadmap) - Skip research, go straight to planning
3. Done for now
```
If user selects "Research domain ecosystem" → invoke `/gsd:research-project`
If user selects "Create roadmap" → invoke `/gsd:create-roadmap`
</step>
</process>
<output>
- `.planning/PROJECT.md`
- `.planning/config.json`
</output>
<success_criteria>
- [ ] Deep questioning completed (not rushed)
- [ ] PROJECT.md captures full context
- [ ] config.json has workflow mode
- [ ] All committed to git
</success_criteria>
