Lex Christopherson c86ca1b3eb fix: sync spike/sketch workflows with upstream skill v2 improvements
Spike workflow:
- Add frontier mode (no-arg or "frontier" proposes integration + frontier spikes)
- Add depth-over-speed principle — follow surprising findings, test edge cases,
  document investigation trail not just verdict
- Add CONVENTIONS.md awareness — follow established patterns, update after session
- Add Requirements section in MANIFEST — track design decisions as they emerge
- Add re-ground step before each spike to prevent drift in long sessions
- Add Investigation Trail section to README template
- Restructured prior context loading with priority ordering
- Research step now runs per-spike with briefing and approach comparison table

Sketch workflow:
- Add frontier mode (no-arg or "frontier" proposes consistency + frontier sketches)
- Add spike context loading — ground mockups in real data shapes, requirements,
  and conventions from spike findings

Spike wrap-up workflow:
- Add CONVENTIONS.md generation step (recurring stack/structure/pattern choices)
- Reference files now use implementation blueprint format (Requirements, How to
  Build It, What to Avoid, Constraints)
- SKILL.md now includes requirements section from MANIFEST
- Next-steps route to /gsd-spike frontier mode instead of inline analysis

Sketch wrap-up workflow:
- Next-steps route to /gsd-sketch frontier mode

Commands updated with frontier mode in descriptions and argument hints.

<objective>
Spike an idea through experiential exploration — build focused experiments to feel the pieces
of a future app, validate feasibility, and produce verified knowledge for the real build.
Spikes live in `.planning/spikes/` and integrate with GSD commit patterns, state tracking,
and handoff workflows.
Two modes:
- **Idea mode** (default) — describe an idea to spike
- **Frontier mode** (no argument or "frontier") — analyzes existing spike landscape and proposes integration and frontier spikes
Does not require `/gsd-new-project` — auto-creates `.planning/spikes/` if needed.

**Copilot (VS Code):** Use `vscode_askquestions` wherever this workflow calls `AskUserQuestion`.

Idea: $ARGUMENTS
**Available flags:**
- `--quick` — Skip decomposition/alignment, jump straight to building. Use when you already know what to spike.
- `--text` — Use plain-text numbered lists instead of AskUserQuestion (for non-Claude runtimes).
</context>
<process>
Execute the spike workflow from @~/.claude/get-shit-done/workflows/spike.md end-to-end.
Preserve all workflow gates (prior spike check, decomposition, research, risk ordering, observability assessment, verification, MANIFEST updates, commit patterns).
</process>
