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

Routes to the add-todo workflow which handles:

Directory structure creation
Content extraction from arguments or conversation
Area inference from file paths
Duplicate detection and resolution
Todo file creation with frontmatter
STATE.md updates
Git commits

State is resolved in-workflow via init todos and targeted reads.

The workflow handles all logic including:

Directory ensuring
Existing area checking
Content extraction (arguments or conversation)
Area inference
Duplicate checking
File creation with slug generation
STATE.md updates
Git commits
