Tom Boucher b2534e8a05 feat(plan-phase): chunked mode + filesystem fallback for Windows stdio hang (#2499)
* feat(plan-phase): chunked mode + filesystem fallback for Windows stdio hang (#2310)

Addresses the 2026-04-16 Windows incident where gsd-planner wrote all 5
PLAN.md files to disk but Task() never returned, hanging the orchestrator
for 30+ minutes. Two mitigations:

1. Filesystem fallback (steps 9a, 11a): when Task() returns with an
   empty/truncated response but PLAN.md files exist on disk, surface a
   recoverable prompt (Accept plans / Retry planner / Stop) instead of
   silently failing. Directly addresses the post-restart recovery path.

2. Chunked mode (--chunked flag / workflow.plan_chunked config): splits the
   single long-lived planner Task into a short outline Task (~2 min) followed
   by N short per-plan Tasks (~3-5 min each). Each plan is committed
   individually for crash resilience. A hang loses one plan, not all of them.
   Resume detection skips plans already on disk on re-run.

RCA confirmed: task state mtime 14:29 vs PLAN.md writes 14:32-14:52 =
subagent completed normally, IPC return was dropped by Windows stdio deadlock.
Neither mitigation fixes the root cause (requires upstream Task() timeout
support); both bound damage and enable recovery.

New reference file planner-chunked.md keeps OUTLINE COMPLETE / PLAN COMPLETE
return formats out of gsd-planner.md (which sits at 46K near its size limit).

Closes #2310

* fix(plan-phase): address CodeRabbit review comments on #2499

- docs/CONFIGURATION.md: add workflow.plan_chunked to full JSON schema example
- plan-phase.md step 8.5.1: validate PLAN-OUTLINE.md with grep for OUTLINE
  COMPLETE marker before reusing (not just file existence)
- plan-phase.md step 8.5.2: validate per-plan PLAN.md has YAML frontmatter
  (head -1 grep for ---) before skipping in resume path
- plan-phase.md: add language tags (text/javascript/bash) to bare fenced
  code blocks in steps 8.5, 9a, 11a (markdownlint MD040)
- Rejected: commit_docs gate on per-plan commits (gsd-sdk query commit
  already respects commit_docs internally — comment was a false positive)

* fix(plan-phase): route Accept-plans through step 9 PLANNING COMPLETE handling

Honors --skip-verify / plan_checker_enabled=false in 9a fallback path.
