Gsd Preflight

Use when GSD commands are failing or .planning/ artifacts look inconsistent. Run before any GSD execute-phase or verify-work attempt to catch cross-artifact mismatches early.

GSD Preflight Validator

Pre-flight checks on .planning/ artifacts to catch issues before workflows fail.

Core Artifact Checks

PROJECT.md — Sections: What This Is, Requirements, Constraints, Key Decisions ROADMAP.md — Sequential phase numbers, each with Goal/Deliverables/Success Criteria STATE.md — Current Position matches ROADMAP status, reasonable progress % config.json — Valid JSON, valid enum values (mode, model_profile, depth)

Cross-Artifact Consistency

  • STATE.md phase exists in ROADMAP.md
  • Completed phases have matching SUMMARY files for each PLAN
  • Phase directories exist for all ROADMAP phases
  • No orphaned files (PLAN without phase, SUMMARY without PLAN)

Severity

Level Definition Action
BLOCKER Will cause workflow failure Must fix first
WARNING May cause confusion Should fix
INFO Informational No action needed

Common Fixes

  • STATE/ROADMAP out of sync: Run /gsd:progress
  • Missing SUMMARY for completed plan: Re-execute or mark incomplete
  • Invalid config.json: Check for trailing commas, invalid values
  • Orphaned directories: Add to ROADMAP or remove
