add-backlogAdd an idea to the backlog parking lot (999.x numbering)
add-phaseAdd phase to end of current milestone in roadmap
add-testsGenerate tests for a completed phase based on UAT criteria and implementation
add-todoCapture idea or task as todo from current conversation context
ai-integration-phaseGenerate AI design contract (AI-SPEC.md) for phases that involve building AI systems — framework selection, implementation guidance from official docs, and evaluation strategy
analyze-dependenciesAnalyze phase dependencies and suggest Depends on entries for ROADMAP.md
audit-fixAutonomous audit-to-fix pipeline — find issues, classify, fix, test, commit
audit-milestoneAudit milestone completion against original intent before archiving
audit-uatCross-phase audit of all outstanding UAT and verification items
autonomousRun all remaining phases autonomously — discuss→plan→execute per phase
check-todosList pending todos and select one to work on
cleanupArchive accumulated phase directories from completed milestones
code-review-fixAuto-fix issues found by code review in REVIEW.md. Spawns fixer agent, commits each fix atomically, produces REVIEW-FIX.md summary.
code-reviewReview source files changed during a phase for bugs, security issues, and code quality problems
complete-milestoneArchive completed milestone and prepare for next version
debugSystematic debugging with persistent state across context resets
discuss-phaseGather 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 --po
doRoute freeform text to the right GSD command automatically
docs-updateGenerate or update project documentation verified against the codebase
eval-reviewRetroactively 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-phaseExecute all plans in a phase with wave-based parallelization
exploreSocratic ideation and idea routing — think through ideas before committing to plans
extract-learningsExtract decisions, lessons, patterns, and surprises from completed phase artifacts
fastExecute a trivial task inline — no subagents, no planning overhead
forensicsPost-mortem investigation for failed GSD workflows — analyzes git history, artifacts, and state to diagnose what went wrong
from-gsd2Import a GSD-2 (.gsd/) project back to GSD v1 (.planning/) format
graphifyBuild, query, and inspect the project knowledge graph in .planning/graphs/
healthDiagnose planning directory health and optionally repair issues
helpShow available GSD commands and usage guide
importIngest external plans with conflict detection against project decisions before writing anything.
inboxTriage and review all open GitHub issues and PRs against project templates and contribution guidelines
ingest-docsScan 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-phaseInsert urgent work as decimal phase (e.g., 72.1) between existing phases
intelQuery, inspect, or refresh codebase intelligence files in .planning/intel/
join-discordJoin the GSD Discord community
list-phase-assumptionsSurface Claude's assumptions about a phase approach before planning
list-workspacesList active GSD workspaces and their status
managerInteractive command center for managing multiple phases from one terminal
map-codebaseAnalyze codebase with parallel mapper agents to produce .planning/codebase/ documents
milestone-summaryGenerate a comprehensive project summary from milestone artifacts for team onboarding and review
mvp-phasePlan an MVP-mode phase — captures an "As a / I want to / So that" user story, runs SPIDR splitting, then delegates to plan-phase
new-dddInitialize a new project using Documentation-Driven Development. Research, then write user-facing docs (SPEC.md) as the spec, then user validates docs, then phases derive from doc sections. Best for CLIs, libraries, SDKs, APIs, plugin systems, anything with a well-defined user-facing surface.
new-milestoneStart a new milestone cycle — update PROJECT.md and route to requirements
new-projectInitialize a new project with deep context gathering and PROJECT.md
new-workspaceCreate an isolated workspace with repo copies and independent .planning/
nextAutomatically advance to the next logical step in the GSD workflow
noteZero-friction idea capture. Append, list, or promote notes to todos.
