* feat(plan-phase): --research-phase flag absorbs deleted /gsd-research-phase + scrub stale refs (#3042, #3044)
#3042 (orphaned research-phase): /gsd-research-phase had a workflow file
but no slash-command stub. Rather than restore the orphan, the research-
only capability is now a flag on /gsd-plan-phase:
/gsd-plan-phase --research-phase <N>
When set, the workflow scopes to phase N, runs the research step (Section
5 of the existing plan-phase workflow), then early-exits before the
planner/plan-checker/verifier chain.
Per RCA against the deleted standalone, the flag adds two modifiers to
fully cover the original surface (Option B from the RCA discussion):
- --view : print existing RESEARCH.md to stdout, no spawn. Cheapest mode
for the correction-without-replanning loop the issue reporter
explicitly called out. Errors with a clear hint if RESEARCH.md is
missing.
- --research : reuse the existing "force re-research" semantics. In
research-only mode this skips the existing-RESEARCH.md prompt and
re-spawns unconditionally.
- Neither flag, RESEARCH.md exists : prompt update/view/skip. Mirrors
the deleted standalone's existing-artifact menu (#3042 RCA).
#3044 (stale slash-command refs): scrubbed five deleted commands from
all user-facing surfaces, including English docs, 4 localized doc sets
(ja-JP, ko-KR, zh-CN, pt-BR), workflows, templates, and references.
/gsd-check-todos → /gsd-capture --list
/gsd-new-workspace → /gsd-workspace --new
/gsd-status → /gsd-progress
/gsd-plan-milestone-gaps → table rows / orphan sections removed
(PR #3038 only scrubbed workflows/agent;
missed the docs surfaces this PR covers)
/gsd-research-phase → /gsd-plan-phase --research-phase
Includes a fix to docs/issue-driven-orchestration.md (PR #3036)
which itself referenced /gsd-new-workspace 4 times — self-correction.
Removed:
- get-shit-done/workflows/research-phase.md (orphan, capability
absorbed into --research-phase flag)
Tests:
- tests/bug-3042-3044-research-flag-and-stale-refs.test.cjs — 46
structural-IR tests across both bugs:
- argument-hint advertises --research-phase + --view
- workflow parses --research-phase, sets RESEARCH_ONLY,
early-exits before planner
- --view prints RESEARCH.md without spawning
- --research forces refresh in research-only mode
- existing-RESEARCH.md prompt path with update/view/skip
- workflows/research-phase.md is removed
- 5 deleted slash-commands absent from 17 English user-facing
surfaces + 16 localized doc surfaces (4 locales × 4 docs each)
- replacement command tokens present where deleted ones lived
6950/6950 full suite pass. Lints clean.

* fix: address all 8 CR findings on PR #3045
Major (3):
- get-shit-done/workflows/plan-phase.md:344 — added explicit early-exit
guard at Section 5.1: "Skip if RESEARCH_ONLY=true". Without it, an LLM
could fall through "use existing, skip to step 6" → planner spawn,
violating the research-only contract. The guard makes the early-exit
unreachable from any non-research-only branch.
- get-shit-done/references/continuation-format.md (3 examples) +
zh-CN/.../continuation-format.md (3 examples) — pointed to
`/gsd-plan-phase --research-phase` but docs/COMMANDS.md didn't
document the flag. Added a full --research-phase + --view + --research
modifier section to the /gsd-plan-phase flag table in COMMANDS.md so
the canonical reference matches the continuation examples.
Minor (5):
- docs/FEATURES.md:1632 — `/gsd-plan-phase --research-phase` →
`/gsd-plan-phase --research-phase <N>` (include required arg).
- get-shit-done/templates/README.md:46 — NN-VALIDATION.md producer
reverted from `/gsd-plan-phase --research-phase` (Nyquist) to plain
`/gsd-plan-phase` (Nyquist). VALIDATION.md is created during normal
Nyquist flow, not research-only mode — the bulk replacement was
wrong for that line.
- get-shit-done/workflows/help.md:89 — signature line was missing
`--research`; added it alongside `--research-phase` and `--view`.
- tests/bug-3042-3044-...:197 — promptHasView/promptHasSkip were
tautological (matched anywhere in 1700-line workflow). Tightened
to a proximity check anchored on "RESEARCH.md already exists" prompt
header within a 600-char window. Updated workflow to emit that
literal phrase.
- tests/feat-2840-...:95 — workspace assertion used `/gsd-workspace`
but the documented replacement is `/gsd-workspace --new`. Tightened
to require both tokens (in 3 places: requiredCommands list, regex
in conceptPairs, error message).
6950/6950 full suite pass. Lint clean.
