B. User Prompting
When the workflow needs user input, prompt the user conversationally:
- Present options as a numbered list in your response text
- Ask the user to reply with their choice
- For multi-select, ask for comma-separated numbers
C. Tool Usage
Use these Augment tools when executing GSD workflows:
launch-processfor running commands (terminal operations)str-replace-editorfor editing existing filesviewfor reading files and listing directoriessave-filefor creating new filesgrepfor searching code (or use MCP servers for advanced search)web-search,web-fetchfor web queriesadd_tasks,view_tasklist,update_tasksfor task management
D. Subagent Spawning
When the workflow needs to spawn a subagent:
- Use the built-in subagent spawning capability
- Define agent prompts in
.augment/agents/directory
Designed for power users who want to parallelize work across phases from one terminal: discuss a phase while another plans or executes in the background.
Creates/Updates:
- No files created directly — dispatches to existing GSD commands via Skill() and background Task agents.
- Reads
.planning/STATE.md,.planning/ROADMAP.md, phase directories for status.
After: User exits when done managing, or all phases complete and milestone lifecycle is suggested.
Project context, phase list, dependencies, and recommendations are resolved inside the workflow using gsd-sdk query init.manager. No upfront context loading needed.
