A. Skill Invocation

• This skill is invoked by mentioning $gsd-ingest-docs.
• Treat all user text after $gsd-ingest-docs as {{GSD_ARGS}}.
• If no arguments are present, treat {{GSD_ARGS}} as empty.

B. AskUserQuestion → request_user_input Mapping

GSD workflows use AskUserQuestion (Claude Code syntax). Translate to Codex request_user_input:

Parameter mapping:

• header → header
• question → question
• Options formatted as "Label" — description → {label: "Label", description: "description"}
• Generate id from header: lowercase, replace spaces with underscores

Batched calls:

• AskUserQuestion([q1, q2]) → single request_user_input with multiple entries in questions[]

Multi-select workaround:

• Codex has no multiSelect. Use sequential single-selects, or present a numbered freeform list asking the user to enter comma-separated numbers.

Execute mode fallback:

• When request_user_input is rejected or unavailable, activate TEXT_MODE: append --text to {{GSD_ARGS}} so the workflow's built-in text-mode branching takes over. Present every AskUserQuestion call as a plain-text numbered list, then stop and wait for the user's reply. Do NOT pick a default and continue (#3018 / #3808).
• You may only proceed without a user answer when one of these is true: (a) the invocation included an explicit non-interactive flag (--auto or --all), (b) the user has explicitly approved a specific default for this question, or (c) the workflow's documented contract says defaults are safe (e.g. autonomous lifecycle paths).
• Do NOT write workflow artifacts (CONTEXT.md, DISCUSSION-LOG.md, PLAN.md, checkpoint files) until the user has answered the plain-text questions or one of (a)-(c) above applies. Surfacing the questions and waiting is the correct response — silently defaulting and writing artifacts is the #3018 failure mode.

C. Task() → spawn_agent Mapping

GSD workflows use Task(...) (Claude Code syntax). Translate to Codex collaboration tools:

Direct mapping:

• Task(subagent_type="X", prompt="Y") → spawn_agent(agent_type="X", message="Y")
• Agent(subagent_type="X", prompt="Y") → spawn_agent(agent_type="X", message="Y")
• Task(model="...") → omit. spawn_agent has no inline model parameter; GSD embeds the resolved per-agent model directly into each agent's .toml at install time so model_overrides from .planning/config.json and ~/.gsd/defaults.json are honored automatically by Codex's agent router.
• Resolved reasoning_effort="low|medium|high|xhigh" (xhigh is a GSD/Codex tier, not a generic runtime enum) → pass reasoning_effort to spawn_agent when the runtime/tool supports it. Omit missing, empty, inherited, or unsupported values; do not invent one-off effort literals in workflow prose.
• fork_context: false by default — GSD agents load their own context via <files_to_read> blocks
• Task(isolation="worktree") / Agent(isolation="worktree") → no direct Codex mapping. Codex spawn_agent does not create or bind a git worktree automatically. Workflows that require this isolation must fail closed or use an explicit manual worktree protocol before spawning (#3360).

Spawn restriction:

• Codex restricts spawn_agent to cases where the user has explicitly requested sub-agents. When automatic spawning is not permitted, do the work inline in the current agent rather than attempting to force a spawn.
• In some Codex sessions, multi-agent tooling can be deferred. If spawn_agent is not currently visible, discover tools first via tool_search before defaulting to inline execution.

Parallel fan-out:

• Spawn multiple agents → collect agent IDs → wait(ids) for all to complete

Result parsing:

• Look for structured markers in agent output: CHECKPOINT, PLAN COMPLETE, SUMMARY, etc.
• close_agent(id) after collecting results from each agent </codex_skill_adapter>

Build the full `.planning/` setup (or merge into an existing one) from multiple pre-existing planning documents — ADRs, PRDs, SPECs, DOCs — in one pass.

• Net-new bootstrap (--mode new, default when .planning/ is absent): produces PROJECT.md + REQUIREMENTS.md + ROADMAP.md + STATE.md from synthesized doc content, delegating final generation to gsd-roadmapper.
• Merge into existing (--mode merge, default when .planning/ is present): appends phases and requirements derived from the ingested docs; hard-blocks any contradiction with existing locked decisions.

Auto-synthesizes most conflicts using the precedence rule ADR > SPEC > PRD > DOC (overridable via manifest). Surfaces unresolved cases in .planning/INGEST-CONFLICTS.md with three buckets: auto-resolved, competing-variants, unresolved-blockers. The BLOCKER gate from the shared conflict engine prevents any destination file from being written when unresolved contradictions exist.

Inputs: directory-convention discovery (docs/adr/, docs/prd/, docs/specs/, docs/rfc/, root-level {ADR,PRD,SPEC,RFC}-*.md), or an explicit --manifest <file> YAML listing {path, type, precedence?} per doc.

v1 constraints: hard cap of 50 docs per invocation; --resolve interactive is reserved for a future release.
