Tom Boucher 3d2c7ba39c feat(discuss): add --power flag for file-based bulk question answering (#1513) (#1611)
- Add --power flag to discuss-phase command (argument-hint + description)
- Add power_user_mode routing section to discuss-phase.md workflow
- Create discuss-phase-power.md with full step-by-step workflow:
  analyze -> generate JSON -> generate HTML -> notify -> wait loop -> finalize
- QUESTIONS.json has phase/stats/sections/questions with id/title/options/answer/status
- QUESTIONS.html is self-contained with stats bar, collapsible sections, 3-col grid
- Refresh, finalize, explain, and exit-power-mode commands documented
- Add tests/discuss-phase-power.test.cjs (13 tests, node:test + node:assert)

Closes #1513

gsd:discuss-phase Gather phase context through adaptive questioning before planning. 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> [--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> @/.claude/get-shit-done/workflows/discuss-phase.md @/.claude/get-shit-done/workflows/discuss-phase-assumptions.md @/.claude/get-shit-done/workflows/discuss-phase-power.md @/.claude/get-shit-done/templates/context.md </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=$(node "$HOME/.claude/get-shit-done/bin/gsd-tools.cjs" 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: The execution_context files listed above ARE the instructions. Read the 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.

<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>
