<objective> Execute all plans in a phase using wave-based parallel execution. Orchestrator stays lean: discover plans, analyze dependencies, group into waves, spawn subagents, collect results. Each subagent loads the full execute-plan context and handles its own plan. Optional wave filter: - `--wave N` executes only Wave `N` for pacing, quota management, or staged rollout - phase verification/completion still only happens when no incomplete plans remain after the selected wave finishes Flag handling rule: - The optional flags documented below are available behaviors, not implied active behaviors - A flag is active only when its literal token appears in `$ARGUMENTS` - If a documented flag is absent from `$ARGUMENTS`, treat it as inactive Context budget: ~15% orchestrator, 100% fresh per subagent. </objective> <execution_context> @${CLAUDE_PLUGIN_ROOT}/workflows/execute-phase.md @${CLAUDE_PLUGIN_ROOT}/references/ui-brand.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> <context> Phase: $ARGUMENTS **Available optional flags (documentation only — not automatically active):** - `--wave N` — Execute only Wave `N` in the phase. Use when you want to pace execution or stay inside usage limits. - `--gaps-only` — Execute only gap closure plans (plans with `gap_closure: true` in frontmatter). Use after verify-work creates fix plans. - `--interactive` — Execute plans sequentially inline (no subagents) with user checkpoints between tasks. Lower token usage, pair-programming style. Best for small phases, bug fixes, and verification gaps. **Active flags must be derived from `$ARGUMENTS`:** - `--wave N` is active only if the literal `--wave` token is present in `$ARGUMENTS` - `--gaps-only` is active only if the literal `--gaps-only` token is present in `$ARGUMENTS` - `--interactive` is active only if the literal `--interactive` token is present in `$ARGUMENTS` - If none of these tokens appear, run the standard full-phase execution flow with no flag-specific filtering - Do not infer that a flag is active just because it is documented in this prompt Context files are resolved inside the workflow via `gsd-sdk query init.execute-phase` and per-subagent `<files_to_read>` blocks. </context> <process> Execute the execute-phase workflow from @${CLAUDE_PLUGIN_ROOT}/workflows/execute-phase.md end-to-end. Preserve all workflow gates (wave execution, checkpoint handling, verification, state updates, routing). </process> <output_format> When this workflow completes, emit a Next Up continuation block following the pattern in `references/continuation-format.md`: - Show completion status (e.g., `## ✓ Phase N Complete` with plan/task tally) - Emit a `## ▶ Next Up` heading with the next likely command - Use **`` `/clear` then: ``** before the command - Include a parenthetical: *(`/clear` is safe — `/gsd:resume-work` restores position from `HANDOFF.json` if you change your mind)* - Add an "Also available:" section with 1-3 alternatives where relevant Phase boundaries are the highest-value places to clear context — the accumulated execution conversation rarely informs the next phase, and `/clear` resets the prompt cache cleanly. Always suggest it on completion. </output_format>
