* feat(#2789): trim skill description anti-patterns; enforce 100-char budget

- Trim descriptions in all commands/gsd/*.md files over 100 chars
- Remove flag documentation from descriptions (belongs in argument-hint)
- Remove Triggers: keyword stuffing
- Add scripts/lint-descriptions.cjs — fails on descriptions > 100 chars
- Add npm script: lint:descriptions
- Add tests/enh-2789-description-budget.test.cjs

prompt gsd:forensics Post-mortem investigation for failed GSD workflows — diagnoses what went wrong. [problem description]

Bash

Investigate what went wrong during a GSD workflow execution. Analyzes git history, `.planning/` artifacts, and file system state to detect anomalies and generate a structured diagnostic report.

Purpose: Diagnose failed or stuck workflows so the user can understand root cause and take corrective action. Output: Forensic report saved to .planning/forensics/, presented inline, with optional issue creation.

<execution_context> @~/.claude/get-shit-done/workflows/forensics.md </execution_context>

**Data sources:** - `git log` (recent commits, patterns, time gaps) - `git status` / `git diff` (uncommitted work, conflicts) - `.planning/STATE.md` (current position, session history) - `.planning/ROADMAP.md` (phase scope and progress) - `.planning/phases/*/` (PLAN.md, SUMMARY.md, VERIFICATION.md, CONTEXT.md) - `.planning/reports/SESSION_REPORT.md` (last session outcomes)

User input:

  • Problem description: $ARGUMENTS (optional — will ask if not provided)
Read and execute the forensics workflow from @~/.claude/get-shit-done/workflows/forensics.md end-to-end.

<success_criteria>

  • Evidence gathered from all available data sources
  • At least 4 anomaly types checked (stuck loop, missing artifacts, abandoned work, crash/interruption)
  • Structured forensic report written to .planning/forensics/report-{timestamp}.md
  • Report presented inline with findings, anomalies, and recommendations
  • Interactive investigation offered for deeper analysis
  • GitHub issue creation offered if actionable findings exist </success_criteria>

<critical_rules>

  • Read-only investigation: Do not modify project source files during forensics. Only write the forensic report and update STATE.md session tracking.
  • Redact sensitive data: Strip absolute paths, API keys, tokens from reports and issues.
  • Ground findings in evidence: Every anomaly must cite specific commits, files, or state data.
  • No speculation without evidence: If data is insufficient, say so — do not fabricate root causes. </critical_rules>
