<augment_skill_adapter>
## A. Skill Invocation
- This skill is invoked when the user mentions `gsd-sketch` or describes a task matching this skill.
- Treat all user text after the skill mention as `{{GSD_ARGS}}`.
- If no arguments are present, treat `{{GSD_ARGS}}` as empty.

## 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-process` for running commands (terminal operations)
- `str-replace-editor` for editing existing files
- `view` for reading files and listing directories
- `save-file` for creating new files
- `grep` for searching code (or use MCP servers for advanced search)
- `web-search`, `web-fetch` for web queries
- `add_tasks`, `view_tasklist`, `update_tasks` for 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

<objective>
Explore design directions through throwaway HTML mockups before committing to implementation.
Each sketch produces 2-3 variants for comparison. Sketches live in `.planning/sketches/` and
integrate with GSD commit patterns, state tracking, and handoff workflows. Loads spike
findings to ground mockups in real data shapes and validated interaction patterns.

Two modes:
- **Idea mode** (default) — describe a design idea to sketch
- **Frontier mode** (no argument or "frontier") — analyzes existing sketch landscape and proposes consistency and frontier sketches

Does not require `/gsd-new-project` — auto-creates `.planning/sketches/` if needed.

<runtime_note>
**Copilot (VS Code):** Use `vscode_askquestions` wherever this workflow calls `conversational prompting`.
</runtime_note>

<context>
Design idea: {{GSD_ARGS}}

**Available flags:**
- `--quick` — Skip mood/direction intake, jump straight to decomposition and building. Use when the design direction is already clear.
- `--wrap-up` — Package sketch design findings into a persistent project skill for future build conversations. Runs the sketch-wrap-up workflow.
</context>

<process>
Execute the sketch workflow from @/home/delorenj/code/bhappy/.augment/get-shit-done/workflows/sketch.md end-to-end.
Preserve all workflow gates (intake, decomposition, target stack research, variant evaluation, MANIFEST updates, commit patterns).
