Tom Boucher 1a230e69aa perf: convert discuss-phase SKILL.md @file imports to lazy per-branch reads (#2752)
* perf: convert discuss-phase @file imports to lazy per-branch reads

Replace eager @file directives in <execution_context> with on-demand
Read calls gated behind mode routing. discuss-phase-assumptions.md is
now only read when DISCUSS_MODE=assumptions; discuss-phase.md is only
read for the default discuss mode; discuss-phase-power.md and
templates/context.md are removed from the entry point entirely
(power mode is handled inside discuss-phase.md's lazy mode dispatch;
context.md is loaded at the write_context step).

Reduces tokens loaded at skill entry from ~13k to near zero.

Closes #2606

* fix(discuss-phase): use contiguous 'Read and execute' phrase in process block

The test at tests/discuss-mode.test.cjs:45 asserts that the <process>
block contains 'Read and execute' as a literal substring. The prior
wording split the instruction across two lines (Read(...) / Then execute),
so the substring match failed.

gsd:discuss-phase Gather phase context through adaptive questioning before planning. Use --all to skip area selection and discuss all gray areas interactively. Use --auto to skip interactive questions (Claude picks recommended defaults). Use --chain for interactive discuss followed by automatic plan+execute. Use --power for bulk question generation into a file-based UI (answer at your own pace). <phase> [--all] [--auto] [--chain] [--batch] [--analyze] [--text] [--power]

Extract implementation decisions that downstream agents need — researcher and planner will use CONTEXT.md to know what to investigate and what choices are locked.

How it works:

  1. Load prior context (PROJECT.md, REQUIREMENTS.md, STATE.md, prior CONTEXT.md files)
  2. Scout codebase for reusable assets and patterns
  3. Analyze phase — skip gray areas already decided in prior phases
  4. Present remaining gray areas — user selects which to discuss
  5. Deep-dive each selected area until satisfied
  6. Create CONTEXT.md with decisions that guide research and planning

Output: {phase_num}-CONTEXT.md — decisions clear enough that downstream agents can act without asking the user again

<execution_context> Workflow files are loaded on-demand in the section below — not upfront. Do not pre-load any workflow files before reading the mode routing instructions. </execution_context>

<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. </runtime_note>

Phase number: $ARGUMENTS (required)

Context files are resolved in-workflow using init phase-op and roadmap/state tool calls.

**Mode routing:** ```bash DISCUSS_MODE=$(gsd-sdk query config-get workflow.discuss_mode 2>/dev/null || echo "discuss") ```

If DISCUSS_MODE is "assumptions": Read and execute ~/.claude/get-shit-done/workflows/discuss-phase-assumptions.md end-to-end.

If DISCUSS_MODE is "discuss" (or unset, or any other value): Read and execute ~/.claude/get-shit-done/workflows/discuss-phase.md end-to-end.

MANDATORY: Read the appropriate workflow file BEFORE taking any action. The objective and success_criteria sections in this command file are summaries — the workflow file contains the complete step-by-step process with all required behaviors, config checks, and interaction patterns. Do not improvise from the summary.

Lazy loading: templates/context.md is loaded inside the write_context step of the active workflow. discuss-phase-power.md is loaded inside discuss-phase.md when --power is detected. Do not load either here.

<success_criteria>

  • Prior context loaded and applied (no re-asking decided questions)
  • Gray areas identified through intelligent analysis
  • User chose which areas to discuss
  • Each selected area explored until satisfied
  • Scope creep redirected to deferred ideas
  • CONTEXT.md captures decisions, not vague vision
  • User knows next steps </success_criteria>
