Engineering workflow router โ picks direct / GSD-lite / full GSD based on RISK, not file count. AUTO-INVOKED for tasks touching 3+ files or creating new functionality, but defaults to LIGHT process unless the work has real architectural risk (concurrency, atomicity, protocol, schema). Hides /gsd-* internals behind one entry point. Skip for bug fixes, typos, single-function changes, and questions. RUNS AUTONOMOUSLY by default โ only pauses on Critical Decision Triggers (see Phase -1).
Fetch a pre-made DESIGN.md from the awesome-design-md collection (66 brands). Drop a known brand's design system into your project. Triggers: design-md, get design md, use vercel design, brand design system.
Lock file edits to a specific directory. Prevents accidental edits outside the designated scope. Use during focused refactoring, debugging, or when working on a specific module. Triggers: freeze, lock scope, restrict edits, scope lock.
Generate AI design contract (AI-SPEC.md) for phases that involve building AI systems โ framework selection, implementation guidance from official docs, and evaluation strategy
Run all remaining phases autonomously โ discussโplanโexecute per phase
Auto-fix issues found by code review in REVIEW.md. Spawns fixer agent, commits each fix atomically, produces REVIEW-FIX.md summary.

Default flow: Research (if needed) โ Plan โ Verify โ Done
Orchestrator role: Parse arguments, validate phase, research domain (unless skipped), spawn gsd-planner, verify with gsd-plan-checker, iterate until pass or max iterations, present results.

Copilot (VS Code): Use vscode_askquestions wherever this workflow calls AskUserQuestion. They are equivalent โ vscode_askquestions is the VS Code Copilot implementation of the same interactive question API. Do not skip questioning steps because AskUserQuestion appears unavailable; use vscode_askquestions instead.

Flags:
--research โ Force re-research even if RESEARCH.md exists--skip-research โ Skip research, go straight to planning--gaps โ Gap closure mode (reads VERIFICATION.md, skips research)--skip-verify โ Skip verification loop--prd <file> โ Use a PRD/acceptance criteria file instead of discuss-phase. Parses requirements into CONTEXT.md automatically. Skips discuss-phase entirely.--reviews โ Replan incorporating cross-AI review feedback from REVIEWS.md (produced by /gsd-review)--text โ Use plain-text numbered lists instead of TUI menus (required for /rc remote sessions)Normalize phase input in step 2 before any directory lookups.
Execute the plan-phase workflow from @$HOME/.claude/get-shit-done/workflows/plan-phase.md end-to-end. Preserve all workflow gates (validation, research, planning, verification loop, routing).
