Extract from init JSON: project_exists, roadmap_exists, state_exists, phases, current_phase, next_phase, milestone_version, completed_count, phase_count, paused_at, state_path, roadmap_path, project_path, config_path.

DISCUSS_MODE=$(gsd_run query config-get workflow.discuss_mode 2>/dev/null || echo "discuss")

If project_exists is false (no .planning/ directory):

No planning structure found.

Run /gsd:new-project to start a new project.

Exit.

If missing STATE.md: suggest /gsd:new-project.

If ROADMAP.md missing but PROJECT.md exists:

This means a milestone was completed and archived. Go to Route F (between milestones).

If missing both ROADMAP.md and PROJECT.md: suggest /gsd:new-project.

**Use structured extraction from `gsd-tools.cjs query` (or legacy gsd-tools.cjs):**

Instead of reading full files, use targeted tools to get only the data needed for the report:

• ROADMAP=$(gsd-tools.cjs query roadmap.analyze)
• STATE=$(gsd-tools.cjs query state-snapshot)

This minimizes orchestrator context usage.

**Get comprehensive roadmap analysis (replaces manual parsing):**

ROADMAP=$(gsd_run query roadmap.analyze)

This returns structured JSON with:

• All phases with disk status (complete/partial/planned/empty/no_directory)
• Goal and dependencies per phase
• Plan and summary counts per phase
• Aggregated stats: total plans, summaries, progress percent
• Current and next phase identification

Use this instead of manually reading/parsing ROADMAP.md.

**Gather recent work context:**

• Find the 2-3 most recent SUMMARY.md files
• Use summary-extract for efficient parsing:

  gsd_run query summary-extract <path> --fields one_liner
  

• This shows "what we've been working on"

**Parse current position from init context and roadmap analysis:**

• Use current_phase and next_phase from $ROADMAP
• Note paused_at if work was paused (from $STATE)
• Count pending todos: use init todos or list-todos
• Check for active debug sessions: (ls .planning/debug/*.md 2>/dev/null || true) | grep -v resolved | wc -l

**MVP-mode display (when phase has `**Mode:** mvp` in ROADMAP.md).**

Resolve MVP_MODE per phase via the centralized resolver. progress has no --mvp CLI flag (mode is inherited from the planned phase), so we omit --cli-flag:

MVP_MODE=$(gsd_run query phase.mvp-mode "${PHASE_NUMBER}" --pick active)

When MVP_MODE=true, the per-phase progress block adds a user-flow status sub-block sourced from the phase's PLAN.md task names. Each task whose name reads like a user-visible capability (e.g., "Register flow", "Login flow", "Password reset") is rendered as a status line:

Phase 1 — User Auth MVP
  ✅ Walking Skeleton complete           ← from SKELETON.md existence
  ✅ Register flow working               ← from PLAN.md task with summary
  ✅ Login flow working                  ← from PLAN.md task with summary
  🔄 Password reset (in progress)        ← from PLAN.md task without summary
  ⬜ Email verification                  ← from PLAN.md task not yet started

User-flow filter: Tasks whose names are technical-sounding ("Wire DB schema", "Create migration", "Bump deps") are NOT rendered as user-flow status lines. Heuristic: a task name is user-flow-shaped if it ends in "flow", "page", "screen", or starts with a verb the user would recognize ("Register", "Login", "Upload", "View"). Tasks that fail the heuristic still count toward the standard task progress total but don't appear in the user-flow sub-block.

When MVP_MODE=false (mode is null, absent, or the phase has no **Mode:** line), fall back to the standard display path — no behavioral change.

**Determine next action based on verified counts.**

Step 0: Resume-incomplete-phase invariant (Route 0)

Before any current-phase-scoped counting, scan ALL phases for incomplete execution. This catches the case where STATE.md's current_phase was advanced past the phase that actually has unfinished work (common after a mid-execution session death from hang, token exhaustion, or API disruption). Without this guard, the current-phase-scoped count in Step 1 would inspect the wrong phase and the routing would skip the unfinished work.

Skip if --no-resume or --force is present in $ARGUMENTS.

Scan all phases via the $ROADMAP JSON already loaded in analyze_roadmap. For each phase entry, compare plans length to summaries length using the same plans-without-summaries predicate as determine_next_action Route 4 (plans.length > summaries.length). Stop at the first (lowest-numbered) phase where the predicate is true. Record its phase number as INCOMPLETE_PHASE.

If $ROADMAP is empty or the query failed, surface a warning rather than silently proceeding:

INCOMPLETE_PHASE=""
if [ -z "$ROADMAP" ]; then
  echo "⚠ WARNING: resume-incomplete-phase scan could not run (\$ROADMAP is empty)." >&2
  echo "  The incomplete-phase invariant (#160) could not be verified." >&2
  echo "  Review project state carefully before continuing." >&2
else
  for PHASE_NUM in $(echo "$ROADMAP" | jq -r '.phases[] | (.number // .phase_number)'); do
    PHASE_DATA=$(echo "$ROADMAP" | jq --arg n "$PHASE_NUM" '.phases[] | select((.number // .phase_number) == ($n | tonumber))')
    PLAN_COUNT=$(echo "$PHASE_DATA" | jq '(.plans // []) | length')
    SUMMARY_COUNT=$(echo "$PHASE_DATA" | jq '(.summaries // []) | length')
    if [ "${PLAN_COUNT:-0}" -gt "${SUMMARY_COUNT:-0}" ]; then
      INCOMPLETE_PHASE="$PHASE_NUM"
      break
    fi
  done
fi

If INCOMPLETE_PHASE is non-empty: emit a one-line resume notice in the routing output and route to /gsd:execute-phase ${INCOMPLETE_PHASE} instead of running Step 1's current-phase routing. The progress report (already displayed by the report step above) gives the user full project status before this routing decision is shown.

---

## ▶ Next Up — Resuming incomplete Phase ${INCOMPLETE_PHASE}

`/clear` then:

`/gsd:execute-phase ${INCOMPLETE_PHASE} ${GSD_WS}`

(plans without summaries detected; use --no-resume to skip this check and route by current_phase instead; --force to skip all gates)

---

Then exit the route step. Do NOT run Steps 1 through Routes A-F.

If INCOMPLETE_PHASE is empty: continue to Step 1.

Step 1: Count plans, summaries, and issues in current phase

List files in the current phase directory:

(ls -1 .planning/phases/[current-phase-dir]/*-PLAN.md 2>/dev/null || true) | wc -l
(ls -1 .planning/phases/[current-phase-dir]/*-SUMMARY.md 2>/dev/null || true) | wc -l
(ls -1 .planning/phases/[current-phase-dir]/*-UAT.md 2>/dev/null || true) | wc -l

State: "This phase has {X} plans, {Y} summaries."

Step 1.5: Check for unaddressed UAT gaps

Check for UAT.md files with status "diagnosed" (has gaps needing fixes).

# Check for diagnosed UAT with gaps or partial (incomplete) testing
grep -l "status: diagnosed\|status: partial" .planning/phases/[current-phase-dir]/*-UAT.md 2>/dev/null || true

Track:

• uat_with_gaps: UAT.md files with status "diagnosed" (gaps need fixing)
• uat_partial: UAT.md files with status "partial" (incomplete testing)

Step 1.6: Cross-phase health check

Scan ALL phases in the current milestone for outstanding verification debt using the CLI (which respects milestone boundaries via getMilestonePhaseFilter):

DEBT=$(gsd_run query audit-uat --raw 2>/dev/null)

Parse JSON for summary.total_items and summary.total_files.

Track: outstanding_debt — summary.total_items from the audit.

If outstanding_debt > 0: Add a warning section to the progress report output (in the report step), placed between "## What's Next" and the route suggestion:

## Verification Debt ({N} files across prior phases)

| Phase | File | Issue |
|-------|------|-------|
| {phase} | {filename} | {pending_count} pending, {skipped_count} skipped, {blocked_count} blocked |
| {phase} | {filename} | human_needed — {count} items |

Review: `/gsd:audit-uat ${GSD_WS}` — full cross-phase audit
Resume testing: `/gsd:verify-work {phase} ${GSD_WS}` — retest specific phase

This is a WARNING, not a blocker — routing proceeds normally. The debt is visible so the user can make an informed choice.

Step 1.7: Check verification status for the current phase

A phase whose verification ended gaps_found or human_needed is NOT complete, even when every PLAN.md has a matching SUMMARY.md. The count-based status (roadmap.analyze) only sees plans/summaries, so without this check such a phase is reported complete and routing skips straight to the next phase. When the phase appears count-complete (summaries = plans AND plans > 0), consult the verification report (the same verification.status gate ship and execute-phase use, from #651):

PHASE_DIR=".planning/phases/[current-phase-dir]"
VERIFICATION=$(gsd_run query verification.status "${PHASE_DIR}" 2>/dev/null)
VERIFICATION_STATUS=$(printf '%s' "$VERIFICATION" | jq -r '.status' 2>/dev/null || echo "")
VERIFICATION_NEXT_ACTION=$(printf '%s' "$VERIFICATION" | jq -r '.next_action' 2>/dev/null || echo "")

Track: verification_status — the .status field (passed | gaps_found | human_needed | missing | unknown). The query already handles a missing VERIFICATION.md (returns missing) and unexpected values, so no per-status file probing is needed. passed, missing (not yet verified), and unknown route as complete (Step 3) — missing with an advisory that the phase is unverified; gaps_found and human_needed route back to close the verification debt (Step 2).

Step 2: Route based on counts

Condition	Meaning	Action
uat_partial > 0	UAT testing incomplete	Go to Route E.2
uat_with_gaps > 0	UAT gaps need fix plans	Go to Route E
summaries < plans	Unexecuted plans exist	Go to Route A
summaries = plans AND plans > 0 AND verification_status = gaps_found	Phase executed; verification found gaps	Go to Route V.gaps
summaries = plans AND plans > 0 AND verification_status = human_needed	Phase executed; awaiting human verification	Go to Route V.human
summaries = plans AND plans > 0	Phase complete (verification passed, missing, or n/a)	Go to Step 3
plans = 0	Phase not yet planned	Go to Route B

Rows are evaluated top to bottom; the first matching row wins. The two verification_status rows must precede the general summaries = plans row so a non-passed verification is not reported as complete.

---

Route A: Unexecuted plan exists

Find the first PLAN.md without matching SUMMARY.md. Read its <objective> section.

---

## ▶ Next Up — [${PROJECT_CODE}] ${PROJECT_TITLE}

**{phase}-{plan}: [Plan Name]** — [objective summary from PLAN.md]

`/clear` then:

`/gsd:execute-phase {phase} ${GSD_WS}`

---

---

Route B: Phase needs planning

Check if {phase_num}-CONTEXT.md exists in phase directory.

Check if current phase has UI indicators:

PHASE_SECTION=$(gsd_run query roadmap.get-phase "${CURRENT_PHASE}" 2>/dev/null)
PHASE_HAS_UI=$(echo "$PHASE_SECTION" | grep -qi "UI hint.*yes" && echo "true" || echo "false")

If CONTEXT.md exists:

---

## ▶ Next Up — [${PROJECT_CODE}] ${PROJECT_TITLE}

**Phase {N}: {Name}** — {Goal from ROADMAP.md}
<sub>✓ Context gathered, ready to plan</sub>

`/clear` then:

`/gsd:plan-phase {phase-number} ${GSD_WS}`

---

If CONTEXT.md does NOT exist AND phase has UI (PHASE_HAS_UI is true):

---

## ▶ Next Up — [${PROJECT_CODE}] ${PROJECT_TITLE}

---

## ⚠ Verification Gaps Found

**{phase_num}-VERIFICATION.md** reports `gaps_found`. ${VERIFICATION_NEXT_ACTION}

`/clear` then:

`/gsd:plan-phase {phase} --gaps ${GSD_WS}`

---

---

Route V.human: human verification required (human_needed)

VERIFICATION.md exists with status: human_needed — automated checks passed but manual verification items remain. The phase is NOT complete until they are resolved.

---

## Human Verification Required

**{phase_num}-VERIFICATION.md** reports `human_needed`. ${VERIFICATION_NEXT_ACTION}

`/clear` then:

`/gsd:verify-work {phase} ${GSD_WS}` — resume human verification

---

---

Step 3: Check milestone status (only when phase complete)

Read ROADMAP.md and identify:

1. Current phase number
2. All phase numbers in the current milestone section

Count total phases and identify the highest phase number.

State: "Current phase is {X}. Milestone has {N} phases (highest: {Y})."

Route based on milestone status:

Condition	Meaning	Action
current phase < highest phase	More phases remain	Go to Route C
current phase = highest phase	Milestone complete	Go to Route D

---

Route C: Phase complete, more phases remain

Read ROADMAP.md to get the next phase's name and goal.

Check if next phase has UI indicators:

NEXT_PHASE_SECTION=$(gsd_run query roadmap.get-phase "$((Z+1))" 2>/dev/null)
NEXT_HAS_UI=$(echo "$NEXT_PHASE_SECTION" | grep -qi "UI hint.*yes" && echo "true" || echo "false")

If next phase has UI (NEXT_HAS_UI is true):

---

## ✓ Phase {Z} Complete

## ▶ Next Up — [${PROJECT_CODE}] ${PROJECT_TITLE}

---

If next phase has no UI:

---

## ✓ Phase {Z} Complete

## ▶ Next Up — [${PROJECT_CODE}] ${PROJECT_TITLE}

**Phase {Z+1}: {Name}** — {Goal from ROADMAP.md}

`/clear` then:

---

**Also available:**
- `/gsd:plan-phase {Z+1} ${GSD_WS}` — skip discussion, plan directly

---

---

Route D: Milestone complete

---

## 🎉 Milestone Complete

All {N} phases finished!

## ▶ Next Up — [${PROJECT_CODE}] ${PROJECT_TITLE}

**Complete Milestone** — archive and prepare for next

`/clear` then:

`/gsd:complete-milestone ${GSD_WS}`

---

**Also available:**
- `/gsd:verify-work ${GSD_WS}` — user acceptance test before completing milestone

---

---

Route F: Between milestones (ROADMAP.md missing, PROJECT.md exists)

A milestone was completed and archived. Ready to start the next milestone cycle.

Read MILESTONES.md to find the last completed milestone version.

---

## ✓ Milestone v{X.Y} Complete

Ready to plan the next milestone.

## ▶ Next Up — [${PROJECT_CODE}] ${PROJECT_TITLE}

**Start Next Milestone** — questioning → research → requirements → roadmap

`/clear` then:

`/gsd:new-milestone ${GSD_WS}`

---

**Handle edge cases:**

• Phase complete but next phase not planned → offer /gsd:plan-phase [next] ${GSD_WS}
• All work complete → offer milestone completion
• Blockers present → highlight before offering to continue
• Handoff file exists → mention it, offer /gsd:resume-work ${GSD_WS}

**Forensic Integrity Audit** — only runs when `--forensic` is present in ARGUMENTS.

If --forensic is NOT present in ARGUMENTS: skip this step entirely. Default progress behavior (standard report + routing) is unchanged.

If --forensic IS present: after the standard report and routing suggestion have been displayed, append the following audit section.

Forensic Integrity Audit

Running 6 deep checks against project state...

Run each check in order. For each check, emit ✓ (pass) or ⚠ (warning) with concrete evidence when a problem is found.

Check 1 — STATE vs artifact consistency

Read STATE.md status / stopped_at fields (from the STATE snapshot already loaded). Compare against the artifact count from the roadmap analysis. If STATE.md claims the current phase is pending/mid-flight but the artifact count shows it as complete (all PLAN.md files have matching SUMMARY.md files), flag inconsistency. Emit:

• ✓ STATE.md consistent with artifact count — if both agree
• ⚠ STATE.md claims [status] but artifact count shows phase complete — with the specific values

Check 2 — Orphaned handoff files

Check for existence of:

ls .planning/HANDOFF.json .planning/phases/*/.continue-here.md .planning/phases/*/*HANDOFF*.md 2>/dev/null || true

Also check .planning/continue-here.md.

Emit:

• ✓ No orphaned handoff files — if none found
• ⚠ Orphaned handoff files found — list each file path, add: → Work was paused mid-flight. Read the handoff before continuing.

Check 3 — Deferred scope drift

Search phase artifacts (CONTEXT.md, DISCUSSION-LOG.md, BUG-BRIEF.md, VERIFICATION.md, SUMMARY.md, HANDOFF.md files under .planning/phases/) for patterns:

grep -rl "defer to Phase\|future phase\|out of scope Phase\|deferred to Phase" .planning/phases/ 2>/dev/null || true

For each match, extract the referenced phase number. Cross-reference against ROADMAP.md phase list. If the referenced phase number is NOT in ROADMAP.md, flag as deferred scope not captured.

Emit:

• ✓ All deferred scope captured in ROADMAP — if no mismatches
• ⚠ Deferred scope references phase(s) not in ROADMAP — list: file, reference text, missing phase number

Check 4 — Memory-flagged pending work

Check if .planning/MEMORY.md or .planning/memory/ exists:

ls .planning/MEMORY.md .planning/memory/*.md 2>/dev/null || true

If found, grep for entries containing: pending, status, deferred, not yet run, backfill, blocking.

Emit:

• ✓ No memory entries flagging pending work — if none found or no MEMORY.md
• ⚠ Memory entries flag pending/deferred work — list the matching lines (max 5, truncated at 80 chars)

Check 5 — Blocking operational todos

Check for pending todos:

ls .planning/todos/pending/*.md 2>/dev/null || true

For files found, scan for keywords indicating operational blockers: script, credential, API key, manual, verification, setup, configure, run .

Emit:

• ✓ No blocking operational todos — if no pending todos or none match operational keywords
• ⚠ Blocking operational todos found — list the file names and matching keywords (max 5)

Check 6 — Uncommitted code

git status --porcelain 2>/dev/null | grep -v "^??" | grep -v "^.planning\/" | grep -v "^\.\." | head -10

If output is non-empty (modified/staged files outside .planning/), flag as uncommitted code.

Emit:

• ✓ Working tree clean — if no modified files outside .planning/
• ⚠ Uncommitted changes in source files — list up to 10 file paths

After all 6 checks, display the verdict:

If all 6 checks passed:

### Verdict: CLEAN

The standard progress report is trustworthy — proceed with the routing suggestion above.

If 1 or more checks failed:

### Verdict: N INTEGRITY ISSUE(S) FOUND

The standard progress report may not reflect true project state.
Review the flagged items above before acting on the routing suggestion.

Then for each failed check, add a concrete next action:

• Check 2 (orphaned handoff): Read the handoff file(s) and resume from where work was paused: /gsd:resume-work ${GSD_WS}
• Check 3 (deferred scope): Add the missing phases to ROADMAP.md or update the deferred references
• Check 4 (memory pending): Review the flagged memory entries and resolve or clear them
• Check 5 (blocking todos): Complete the operational steps in .planning/todos/pending/ before continuing
• Check 6 (uncommitted code): Commit or stash the uncommitted changes before advancing
• Check 1 (STATE inconsistency): Run /gsd:verify-work ${PHASE} ${GSD_WS} to reconcile state
