gsd-new-workspace

<codex_skill_adapter>

A. Skill Invocation

• This skill is invoked by mentioning $gsd-new-workspace.
• Treat all user text after $gsd-new-workspace as {{GSD_ARGS}}.
• If no arguments are present, treat {{GSD_ARGS}} as empty.

B. AskUserQuestion → request_user_input Mapping

GSD workflows use AskUserQuestion (Claude Code syntax). Translate to Codex request_user_input:

Parameter mapping:

• header → header
• question → question
• Options formatted as "Label" — description → {label: "Label", description: "description"}
• Generate id from header: lowercase, replace spaces with underscores

Batched calls:

• AskUserQuestion([q1, q2]) → single request_user_input with multiple entries in questions[]

Multi-select workaround:

• Codex has no multiSelect. Use sequential single-selects, or present a numbered freeform list asking the user to enter comma-separated numbers.

Execute mode fallback:

• When request_user_input is rejected (Execute mode), present a plain-text numbered list and pick a reasonable default.

C. Task() → spawn_agent Mapping

GSD workflows use Task(...) (Claude Code syntax). Translate to Codex collaboration tools:

Direct mapping:

• Task(subagent_type="X", prompt="Y") → spawn_agent(agent_type="X", message="Y")
• Task(model="...") → omit (Codex uses per-role config, not inline model selection)
• fork_context: false by default — GSD agents load their own context via <files_to_read> blocks

Parallel fan-out:

• Spawn multiple agents → collect agent IDs → wait(ids) for all to complete

Result parsing:

• Look for structured markers in agent output: CHECKPOINT, PLAN COMPLETE, SUMMARY, etc.
• close_agent(id) after collecting results from each agent </codex_skill_adapter>

<context> **Flags:** - `--name` (required) — Workspace name - `--repos` — Comma-separated repo paths or names. If omitted, interactive selection from child git repos in cwd - `--path` — Target directory. Defaults to `~$gsd-workspaces/<name>` - `--strategy` — `worktree` (default, lightweight) or `clone` (fully independent) - `--branch` — Branch to checkout. Defaults to `workspace/<name>` - `--auto` — Skip interactive questions, use defaults </context> <objective> Create a physical workspace directory containing copies of specified git repos (as worktrees or clones) with an independent `.planning/` directory for isolated GSD sessions.

Use cases:

• Multi-repo orchestration: work on a subset of repos in parallel with isolated GSD state
• Feature branch isolation: create a worktree of the current repo with its own .planning/

Creates:

• <path>/WORKSPACE.md — workspace manifest
• <path>/.planning/ — independent planning directory
• <path>/<repo>/ — git worktree or clone for each specified repo

After this command: cd into the workspace and run $gsd-new-project to initialize GSD. </objective>
