gsd-discuss-phase

gsd-discuss-phase is a skill for Claude Code from shoootyou/get-shit-done-multi. It costs 14 tokens per session (677 once invoked), scanned A, original, MIT.

A guided discussion step for clarifying an implementation phase before planning it. It asks questions about unclear choices and records the decisions in a CONTEXT.md file.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it before researching or planning a phase to identify unclear areas, discuss selected topics, capture decisions, and note ideas for later phases.
Why use it?
It prevents later agents from guessing about interface details, behavior, errors, or other open questions. It also keeps new ideas outside the current phase instead of expanding its scope.

Token cost

What it costs to keep this loaded

Counted locally with the o200k_base tokenizer, which is exact for GPT models; Claude uses its own tokenizer and its counts differ. Treat this as one consistent yardstick across the catalogue rather than a bill. Prices are per million input tokens.

Security

Grade A, and why

gsd-discuss-phase scanned grade A with 0 findings against 26 rules in 11 categories — prompt injection, anti-refusal, data exfiltration, privilege escalation, supply chain, agent snooping, system-prompt leakage, SSRF and excessive agency — measured 11d ago.

A static scan of the body, not an audit. Every finding is printed with the line that produced it so you can judge whether it matters here. A mod is markdown that instructs an agent; that is exactly why what it instructs is worth reading.

Nothing flagged

None of the 26 patterns this scan looks for appear in this file: no shell pipes, no recursive deletes, no credential paths, no hidden text, no instruction-override or anti-refusal phrasing, no agent-config snooping. That is not a guarantee, it is the absence of the things that are checkable.

What it actually says

How it works:

  1. Analyze the phase to identify gray areas (UI, UX, behavior, etc.)
  2. Present gray areas — user selects which to discuss
  3. Deep-dive each selected area until satisfied
  4. Create CONTEXT.md with decisions that guide research and planning

Output: {phase_num}-CONTEXT.md — decisions clear enough that downstream agents can act without asking the user again

<execution_context> @{{PLATFORM_ROOT}}/get-shit-done/workflows/discuss-phase.md @{{PLATFORM_ROOT}}/get-shit-done/templates/context.md </execution_context>

Context files are resolved in-workflow using init phase-op and roadmap/state tool calls.

CRITICAL: Scope guardrail

  • Phase boundary from ROADMAP.md is FIXED
  • Discussion clarifies HOW to implement, not WHETHER to add more
  • If user suggests new capabilities: "That's its own phase. I'll note it for later."
  • Capture deferred ideas — don't lose them, don't act on them

Domain-aware gray areas: Gray areas depend on what's being built. Analyze the phase goal:

  • Something users SEE → layout, density, interactions, states
  • Something users CALL → responses, errors, auth, versioning
  • Something users RUN → output format, flags, modes, error handling
  • Something users READ → structure, tone, depth, flow
  • Something being ORGANIZED → criteria, grouping, naming, exceptions

Generate 3-4 phase-specific gray areas, not generic categories.

Probing depth:

  • Ask 4 questions per area before checking
  • "More questions about [area], or move to next?"
  • If more → ask 4 more, check again
  • After all areas → "Ready to create context?"

Do NOT ask about (Claude handles these):

  • Technical implementation
  • Architecture choices
  • Performance concerns
  • Scope expansion

<success_criteria>

  • Gray areas identified through intelligent analysis
  • User chose which areas to discuss
  • Each selected area explored until satisfied
  • Scope creep redirected to deferred ideas
  • CONTEXT.md captures decisions, not vague vision
  • User knows next steps </success_criteria>

What this file has done since we first saw it

Hashed on every crawl. A supply-chain change to an agent config is a question of when, not whether, so the history is kept rather than the latest state alone.
