Quang Do d4767ac2e0 fix: replace /gsd: slash command format with /gsd- skill format in all user-facing content (#1579)
* fix: replace /gsd: command format with /gsd- skill format in all suggestions

All next-step suggestions shown to users were still using the old colon
format (/gsd:xxx) which cannot be copy-pasted as skills. Migrated all
occurrences across agents/, commands/, get-shit-done/, docs/, README files,
bin/install.js (hardcoded defaults for claude runtime), and
get-shit-done/bin/lib/*.cjs (generate-claude-md templates and error messages).
Updated tests to assert new hyphen format instead of old colon format.

* fix: migrate remaining /gsd: format to /gsd- in hooks, workflows, and sdk

Addresses remaining user-facing occurrences missed in the initial migration:

- hooks/: fix 4 user-facing messages (pause-work, update, fast, quick)
  and 2 comments in gsd-workflow-guard.js
- get-shit-done/workflows/: fix 21 Skill() literal calls that Claude
  executes directly (installer does not transform workflow content)
- sdk/prompt-sanitizer.ts: update regex to strip /gsd- format in addition
  to legacy /gsd: format; update JSDoc comment
- tests/: update autonomous-ui-steps, prompt-sanitizer to assert new format

Note: commands/gsd/*.md frontmatter (name: gsd:xxx) intentionally unchanged
— installer derives skillName from directory path, not the name field.

* fix(plan-phase): preserve --chain flag in auto-advance sync and handle ui-phase gate in chain mode

Bug 1: step 15 sync-flag check only guarded against --auto, causing
_auto_chain_active to be cleared when plan-phase is invoked without
--auto in ARGUMENTS even though a --chain pipeline was active. Added
--chain to the guard condition, matching discuss-phase behaviour.

Bug 2: UI Design Contract gate (step 5.6) always exited the workflow
when UI-SPEC was missing, breaking the discuss --chain pipeline
silently. When _auto_chain_active is true, the gate now auto-invokes
gsd-ui-phase --auto via Skill() and continues to step 6 without
prompting. Manual invocations retain the existing AskUserQuestion flow.

* fix: remove <sub>/clear</sub> pattern and duplicate old-format command in discuss-phase.md

# Context Window Monitor
A post-tool hook (`PostToolUse` for Claude Code, `AfterTool` for Gemini CLI) that warns the agent when context window usage is high.
## Problem
The statusline shows context usage to the **user**, but the **agent** has no awareness of context limits. When context runs low, the agent continues working until it hits the wall — potentially mid-task with no state saved.
## How It Works
1. The statusline hook writes context metrics to `/tmp/claude-ctx-{session_id}.json`
2. After each tool use, the context monitor reads these metrics
3. When remaining context drops below thresholds, it injects a warning as `additionalContext`
4. The agent receives the warning in its conversation and can act accordingly
## Thresholds
| Level | Remaining | Agent Behavior |
|-------|-----------|----------------|
| Normal | > 35% | No warning |
| WARNING | <= 35% | Wrap up current task, avoid starting new complex work |
| CRITICAL | <= 25% | Stop immediately, save state (`/gsd-pause-work`) |
## Debounce
To avoid spamming the agent with repeated warnings:
- First warning always fires immediately
- Subsequent warnings require 5 tool uses between them
- Severity escalation (WARNING -> CRITICAL) bypasses debounce
## Architecture
```
Statusline Hook (gsd-statusline.js)
| writes
v
/tmp/claude-ctx-{session_id}.json
^ reads
|
Context Monitor (gsd-context-monitor.js, PostToolUse/AfterTool)
| injects
v
additionalContext -> Agent sees warning
```
The bridge file is a simple JSON object:
```json
{
"session_id": "abc123",
"remaining_percentage": 28.5,
"used_pct": 71,
"timestamp": 1708200000
}
```
## Integration with GSD
GSD's `/gsd-pause-work` command saves execution state. The WARNING message suggests using it. The CRITICAL message instructs immediate state save.
## Setup
Both hooks are automatically registered during `npx get-shit-done-cc` installation:
- **Statusline** (writes bridge file): Registered as `statusLine` in settings.json
- **Context Monitor** (reads bridge file): Registered as `PostToolUse` hook in settings.json (`AfterTool` for Gemini)
Manual registration in `~/.claude/settings.json` (Claude Code):
```json
{
"statusLine": {
"type": "command",
"command": "node ~/.claude/hooks/gsd-statusline.js"
},
"hooks": {
"PostToolUse": [
{
"hooks": [
{
"type": "command",
"command": "node ~/.claude/hooks/gsd-context-monitor.js"
}
]
}
]
}
}
```
For Gemini CLI (`~/.gemini/settings.json`), use `AfterTool` instead of `PostToolUse`:
```json
{
"hooks": {
"AfterTool": [
{
"hooks": [
{
"type": "command",
"command": "node ~/.gemini/hooks/gsd-context-monitor.js"
}
]
}
]
}
}
```
## Safety
- The hook wraps everything in try/catch and exits silently on error
- It never blocks tool execution — a broken monitor should not break the agent's workflow
- Stale metrics (older than 60s) are ignored
- Missing bridge files are handled gracefully (subagents, fresh sessions)
