Tom Boucher b866b95296 fix(#921,#922): orchestrators must not fork; plan-phase Agent gate is attempt-based (#926)
`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
#913's intent of preventing inline role-collapse, while eliminating
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).

<objective>
Create executable phase prompts (PLAN.md files) for a roadmap phase with integrated research and verification.
**Default flow:** Research (if needed) → Plan → Verify → Done
**Research-only mode (`--research-phase <N>`):** Spawn `gsd-phase-researcher` for phase `N`, write `RESEARCH.md`, then exit before the planner runs. Useful for cross-phase research, doc review before committing to a planning approach, and correction-without-replanning loops where iterating on research alone is dramatically cheaper than re-spawning the planner. Replaces the deleted research-phase command (#3042).
**Research-only modifiers:**
- **No flag** — when `RESEARCH.md` already exists, auto-uses it: emits a one-line notice and exits cleanly, no prompt.
- **`--research`** — force-refresh: re-spawn the researcher unconditionally, no prompt. Bypasses the existing-RESEARCH.md auto-use path.
- **`--view`** — view-only: print existing `RESEARCH.md` to stdout. Does not spawn the researcher. Cheapest mode for the correction-without-replanning loop. If no `RESEARCH.md` exists yet, errors with a hint to drop `--view`.
**Orchestrator role:** Parse arguments, validate phase, research domain (unless skipped), spawn gsd-planner, verify with gsd-plan-checker, iterate until pass or max iterations, present results.

<runtime_note>
**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. Do not skip questioning steps because `AskUserQuestion` appears unavailable; use `vscode_askquestions` instead.

<context>
Phase number: $ARGUMENTS (optional — auto-detects next unplanned phase if omitted)
**Flags:**
- `--research` — Force re-research even if RESEARCH.md exists
- `--skip-research` — Skip research, go straight to planning
- `--gaps` — Gap closure mode (reads VERIFICATION.md, skips research)
- `--skip-verify` — Skip verification loop
- `--prd <file>` — Use a PRD/acceptance criteria file instead of discuss-phase. Parses requirements into CONTEXT.md automatically. Skips discuss-phase entirely.
- `--ingest <path-or-glob>` — Use one or more ADR files instead of discuss-phase. Parses locked decisions + scope fences into CONTEXT.md automatically. Skips discuss-phase entirely.
- `--ingest-format <auto|nygard|madr|narrative>` — Optional ADR parser format override (`auto` default).
- `--reviews` — Replan incorporating cross-AI review feedback from REVIEWS.md (produced by `/gsd:review`)
- `--text` — Use plain-text numbered lists instead of TUI menus (required for `/rc` remote sessions)
- `--mvp` — Vertical MVP mode. Planner organizes tasks as feature slices (UI→API→DB) instead of horizontal layers. On Phase 1 of a new project, also emits `SKELETON.md` (Walking Skeleton). Can be persisted on a phase via `**Mode:** mvp` in ROADMAP.md.
Normalize phase input in step 2 before any directory lookups.
