Tom Boucher b1a670e662 fix(#2697): replace retired /gsd: prefix with /gsd- in all user-facing text (#2699)
All workflow, command, reference, template, and tool-output files that
surfaced /gsd:<cmd> as a user-typed slash command have been updated to
use /gsd-<cmd>, matching the Claude Code skill directory name.

Closes #2697

Remove a GSD workspace, cleaning up git worktrees and deleting the workspace directory.

<required_reading> Read all files referenced by the invoking prompt's execution_context before starting. </required_reading>

1. Setup

Extract workspace name from $ARGUMENTS.

INIT=$(gsd-sdk query init.remove-workspace "$WORKSPACE_NAME")
if [[ "$INIT" == @file:* ]]; then INIT=$(cat "${INIT#@file:}"); fi

Parse JSON for: workspace_name, workspace_path, has_manifest, strategy, repos, repo_count, dirty_repos, has_dirty_repos.

If no workspace name provided:

First run /gsd-list-workspaces to show available workspaces, then ask:

Text mode (workflow.text_mode: true in config or --text flag): Set TEXT_MODE=true if --text is present in $ARGUMENTS OR text_mode from init JSON is true. When TEXT_MODE is active, replace every AskUserQuestion call with a plain-text numbered list and ask the user to type their choice number. This is required for non-Claude runtimes (OpenAI Codex, Gemini CLI, etc.) where AskUserQuestion is not available. Use AskUserQuestion:

  • header: "Remove Workspace"
  • question: "Which workspace do you want to remove?"
  • requireAnswer: true

Re-run init with the provided name.

2. Safety Checks

If has_dirty_repos is true:

Cannot remove workspace "$WORKSPACE_NAME" — the following repos have uncommitted changes:

  - repo1
  - repo2

Commit or stash changes in these repos before removing the workspace:
  cd "$WORKSPACE_PATH/repo1"
  git stash   # or git commit

Exit. Do NOT proceed.

3. Confirm Removal

Use AskUserQuestion:

  • header: "Confirm Removal"
  • question: "Remove workspace '$WORKSPACE_NAME' at $WORKSPACE_PATH? This will delete all files in the workspace directory. Type the workspace name to confirm:"
  • requireAnswer: true

If answer does not match $WORKSPACE_NAME: Exit with "Removal cancelled."

4. Clean Up Worktrees

If strategy is worktree:

For each repo in the workspace:

cd "$SOURCE_REPO_PATH"
git worktree remove "$WORKSPACE_PATH/$REPO_NAME" 2>&1 || true

If git worktree remove fails, warn but continue:

Warning: Could not remove worktree for $REPO_NAME — source repo may have been moved or deleted.

5. Delete Workspace Directory

rm -rf "$WORKSPACE_PATH"

6. Report

Workspace "$WORKSPACE_NAME" removed.

  Path: $WORKSPACE_PATH (deleted)
  Repos: $REPO_COUNT worktrees cleaned up
