Add an idea to the backlog parking lot (999.x numbering)

Add phase to end of current milestone in roadmap

Generate tests for a completed phase based on UAT criteria and implementation

Capture idea or task as todo from current conversation context

Generate AI design contract (AI-SPEC.md) for phases that involve building AI systems — framework selection, implementation guidance from official docs, and evaluation strategy

Autonomous audit-to-fix pipeline — find issues, classify, fix, test, commit

Audit milestone completion against original intent before archiving

Cross-phase audit of all outstanding UAT and verification items

Run all remaining phases autonomously — discuss→plan→execute per phase

List pending todos and select one to work on

Archive accumulated phase directories from completed milestones

Review source files changed during a phase for bugs, security issues, and code quality problems

Auto-fix issues found by code review in REVIEW.md. Spawns fixer agent, commits each fix atomically, produces REVIEW-FIX.md summary.

Archive completed milestone and prepare for next version

Systematic debugging with persistent state across context resets

Gather phase context through adaptive questioning before planning. Use --all to skip area selection and discuss all gray areas interactively. 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).

Route freeform text to the right GSD command automatically

Generate or update project documentation verified against the codebase

Retroactively audit an executed AI phase's evaluation coverage — scores each eval dimension as COVERED/PARTIAL/MISSING and produces an actionable EVAL-REVIEW.md with remediation plan

Execute all plans in a phase with wave-based parallelization

Socratic ideation and idea routing — think through ideas before committing to plans

Execute a trivial task inline — no subagents, no planning overhead

Post-mortem investigation for failed GSD workflows — analyzes git history, artifacts, and state to diagnose what went wrong

Import a GSD-2 (.gsd/) project back to GSD v1 (.planning/) format

Build, query, and inspect the project knowledge graph in .planning/graphs/

Diagnose planning directory health and optionally repair issues

Show available GSD commands and usage guide

Ingest external plans with conflict detection against project decisions before writing anything.

Triage and review all open GitHub issues and PRs against project templates and contribution guidelines

Scan a repo for mixed ADRs, PRDs, SPECs, and DOCs and bootstrap or merge the full .planning/ setup from them. Classifies each doc in parallel, synthesizes a consolidated context with a conflicts report, and routes to new-project or merge-milestone depending on whether .planning/ already exists.

Insert urgent work as decimal phase (e.g., 72.1) between existing phases

Query, inspect, or refresh codebase intelligence files in .planning/intel/

Join the GSD Discord community

Surface Claude's assumptions about a phase approach before planning

List active GSD workspaces and their status

Interactive command center for managing multiple phases from one terminal

Analyze codebase with parallel mapper agents to produce .planning/codebase/ documents

Generate a comprehensive project summary from milestone artifacts for team onboarding and review

Plan an MVP-mode phase — captures an "As a / I want to / So that" user story, runs SPIDR splitting, then delegates to plan-phase

Start a new milestone cycle — update PROJECT.md and route to requirements

Initialize a new project with deep context gathering and PROJECT.md

Create an isolated workspace with repo copies and independent .planning/

Automatically advance to the next logical step in the GSD workflow

Zero-friction idea capture. Append, list, or promote notes to todos.

Create context handoff when pausing work mid-phase

Create phases to close all gaps identified by milestone audit

Create detailed phase plan (PLAN.md) with verification loop

Capture a forward-looking idea with trigger conditions — surfaces automatically at the right milestone

Create a clean PR branch by filtering out .planning/ commits — ready for code review

Generate developer behavioral profile and create Claude-discoverable artifacts

Check project progress, show context, and route to next action (execute or plan). Use --forensic to append a 6-check integrity audit after the standard report.

Execute a quick task with GSD guarantees (atomic commits, state tracking) but skip optional agents

Reapply local modifications after a GSD update

Remove a future phase from roadmap and renumber subsequent phases

Remove a GSD workspace and clean up worktrees

Research how to implement a phase (standalone - usually use /gsd:plan-phase instead)

Schedule a future resume of work - e.g. '/gsd:resume-at 09:00', '/gsd:resume-at +2h', or '/gsd:resume-at 04:00 --cmd /gsd:execute-phase 9'

Resume work from previous session with full context restoration

Request cross-AI peer review of phase plans from external AI CLIs

Review and promote backlog items to active milestone

Rapid codebase assessment — lightweight alternative to /gsd:map-codebase

Retroactively verify threat mitigations for a completed phase

Generate a session report with token usage estimates, work summary, and outcomes

Switch model profile for GSD agents (quality/balanced/budget/inherit)

Configure GSD workflow toggles and model profile

Create PR, run review, and prepare for merge after verification passes

Sketch UI/design ideas with throwaway HTML mockups, or propose what to sketch next (frontier mode)

Package sketch design findings into a persistent project skill for future build conversations

Socratic spec refinement — clarify WHAT a phase delivers with ambiguity scoring before discuss-phase. Produces a SPEC.md with falsifiable requirements locked before implementation decisions begin.
