* fix(#3019): query --help reaches handler instead of short-circuiting to top-level usage
The query argv parser in sdk/src/cli.ts harvested -h/--help as a global
flag and main() short-circuited dispatch when args.help was true. Net
effect: every `gsd-sdk query <anything> --help` printed top-level USAGE
instead of contextual subcommand help. There was no path for users to
discover what arguments a query subcommand accepts — they had to trigger
"required" errors by trial and error.
Two-layer fix:
1. sdk/src/cli.ts (parseCliArgsQueryPermissive)
- Push -h / --help onto queryArgv instead of consuming them silently,
so the registered handler / gsd-tools.cjs fallback gets to interpret
the flag and render contextual help.
- Only honor the global help flag when there is NO real subcommand to
dispatch to (i.e. queryArgv contains only help flags). Preserves
`gsd-sdk query --help` → top-level USAGE while letting
`gsd-sdk query phase add --help` reach the handler.
2. get-shit-done/bin/gsd-tools.cjs
- Render top-level usage on --help / -h / -? / --usage instead of
erroring with "Unknown flag". The discovery hint in the usage text
points users at the working method (run without args → error names
required arguments) and references #3019 for tracking subcommand-
level help printers.
- --version remains rejected (no discovery use-case).
#1818 anti-hallucination invariant preserved: the destructive command
NEVER executes when --help is present. The new shape returns success:true
+ usage on stdout instead of the old success:false + error on stderr —
both satisfy "destructive command did not run", and the new shape also
restores discoverability.
Tests:
- sdk/src/cli.test.ts: 4 new vitest cases covering #3019 — query argv
parser keeps --help with subcommand, parses -h short flag, preserves
bare `query --help` top-level behavior, preserves --help position when
intermixed with other query flags.
- tests/bug-3019-help-passthrough.test.cjs: 5 node:test cases on the
fallback — bare gsd-tools (no args) errors with usage; --help renders
usage on stdout exit 0; -h same; subcommand --help renders usage; usage
hint mentions discovery method (without prose substring matching —
parses into typed sections).
- tests/bug-1818-unknown-flags.test.cjs: rewritten to assert the new
invariant ("destructive command did not run" + "usage was rendered")
instead of the old shape ("--help is rejected with non-zero exit").
Each destructive test seeds a sentinel artifact (phase dir, slug
output) and asserts it survives.
Verification:
- 47/47 vitest pass on sdk/src/cli.test.ts
- 5/5 pass on tests/bug-3019-help-passthrough.test.cjs
- 8/8 pass on tests/bug-1818-unknown-flags.test.cjs (rewritten)
- 6763/6763 pass on full node:test suite
- lint-no-source-grep clean (0 violations)

* fix(#3019): SDK fallback forwards plain-text help, broader usage list (CR)
CodeRabbit on PR #3026 (4 findings — 1 Major outside-diff, 2 inline,
1 nitpick):
1. **Major outside-diff** — sdk/src/cli.ts:442-454. The fallback path
that delegates to gsd-tools.cjs called parseCliQueryJsonOutput
(JSON.parse) on stdout. Now that gsd-tools renders plain-text usage
on --help, JSON.parse threw "Unexpected token 'U'". Wrapped the
parse in try/catch — on parse failure, forward the plain stdout
verbatim so subcommand help reaches the user. Regression test:
tests/bug-3019-help-passthrough.test.cjs spawns the built SDK and
asserts `gsd-sdk query phase --help` exits 0, stdout contains the
gsd-tools usage, and stderr does NOT contain a JSON-parse error.
2. .changeset/help-passthrough.md:3 — `pr: TBD` → `pr: 3026`.
3. gsd-tools.cjs:346 (TOP_LEVEL_USAGE):
- Removed self-referencing `#3019` link (immediately stale after
this PR merges).
- Expanded Commands list from 17 → all 47 dispatcher cases:
agent-skills, audit-open, audit-uat, check-commit, commit, …
phase, phases, roadmap, milestone, validate, progress, intel,
graphify, learnings, etc. — the bulk of the surface that was
previously unreachable via --help discovery.
4. Nitpick: `isUsageOutput` was duplicated in bug-1818 and
bug-3019-help-passthrough tests. Moved to tests/helpers.cjs with
structural-comment, removed both duplicates.
Verification: 47/47 vitest pass, 14/14 regression tests pass,
6764/6764 full suite, lint clean.
* test(#3019): use t.skip() instead of bare return when SDK not built (CR)
CodeRabbit follow-up on PR #3026:
The integration test guarded against missing sdk/dist/cli.js with a
bare `return;` — node:test counts that as a passing test (0 assertions
exercised, 0 failures). On a CI checkout that hasn't run the SDK build,
the #3026 regression test silently green-lit and no signal ever
surfaced that the integration check was skipped.
Switched to `t.skip(...)` via the test context parameter so the
omission shows up in the test report. The unit-level fix
(sdk/src/cli.ts) is still covered by vitest, so the skip only affects
the end-to-end spawn-built-SDK check.
Verification: 6/6 pass when SDK is built; 5 pass + 1 skip when not.
