# GSD CLI Tools Reference
> Surface-area reference for `get-shit-done/bin/gsd-tools.cjs` (legacy Node CLI). Workflows and agents should prefer `gsd-sdk query` or `@gsd-build/sdk` where a handler exists — see [SDK and programmatic access](#sdk-and-programmatic-access). For slash commands and user flows, see [Command Reference](COMMANDS.md).
---
## Overview
`gsd-tools.cjs` centralizes config parsing, model resolution, phase lookup, git commits, summary verification, state management, and template operations across GSD commands, workflows, and agents.
| | |
| ------------------ | ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ |
| **Shipped path** | `get-shit-done/bin/gsd-tools.cjs` |
| **Implementation** | 20 domain modules under `get-shit-done/bin/lib/` (the directory is authoritative) |
| **Status** | Maintained for parity tests and CJS-only entrypoints; `gsd-sdk query` / SDK registry are the supported path for new orchestration (see [QUERY-HANDLERS.md](../sdk/src/query/QUERY-HANDLERS.md)). |
**Usage (CJS):**
```bash
node gsd-tools.cjs <command> [args] [--raw] [--cwd <path>]
```
**Global flags (CJS):**
| Flag | Description |
| -------------- | ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- |
| `--raw` | Machine-readable output (JSON or plain text, no formatting) |
| `--cwd <path>` | Override working directory (for sandboxed subagents) |
| `--ws <name>` | Workstream context (also honored when the SDK spawns this binary; see below) |
---
## SDK and programmatic access
Use this when authoring workflows, not when you only need the command list below.
**1. CLI — `gsd-sdk query <argv…>`**
- Resolves argv with the same **longest-prefix** rules as the typed registry (`resolveQueryArgv` in `sdk/src/query/registry.ts`). Unregistered commands **fail fast** — use `node …/gsd-tools.cjs` only for handlers not in the registry.
- Full matrix (CJS command → registry key, CLI-only tools, aliases, golden tiers): [sdk/src/query/QUERY-HANDLERS.md](../sdk/src/query/QUERY-HANDLERS.md).
**2. TypeScript — `@gsd-build/sdk` (`GSDTools`, `createRegistry`)**
- `GSDTools` now routes through the **SDK Runtime Bridge Module** (`sdk/src/query-runtime-bridge.ts`). Native registry dispatch is preferred; subprocess fallback is explicit policy (`allowFallbackToSubprocess`) and can be disabled for strict SDK-only execution.
- `strictSdk` mode fails fast when a command has no native adapter, making SDK publish/readiness checks deterministic.
- Structured bridge observability is available via `onDispatchEvent` (dispatch mode, fallback reason, duration, outcome, error kind).
- For direct typed dispatch without `GSDTools`, use `createRegistry()` from `sdk/src/query/index.ts`, or invoke `gsd-sdk query` (see [QUERY-HANDLERS.md](../sdk/src/query/QUERY-HANDLERS.md)).
- Conventions: mutation event wiring, `GSDError` vs `{ data: { error } }`, locks, and stubs — [QUERY-HANDLERS.md](../sdk/src/query/QUERY-HANDLERS.md).
**CJS → SDK examples (same project directory):**
| Legacy CJS | Preferred `gsd-sdk query` (examples) |
| ---------------------------------------- | ------------------------------------ |
| `node gsd-tools.cjs init phase-op 12` | `gsd-sdk query init phase-op 12` |
| `node gsd-tools.cjs phase-plan-index 12` | `gsd-sdk query phase-plan-index 12` |
| `node gsd-tools.cjs state json` | `gsd-sdk query state json` |
| `node gsd-tools.cjs roadmap analyze` | `gsd-sdk query roadmap analyze` |
**SDK state reads:** `state.json` and `state.load` are both registered query handlers with parity coverage. You can invoke them through `gsd-sdk query …` and through the SDK Runtime Bridge (`GSDTools``sdk/src/query-runtime-bridge.ts`), honoring `allowFallbackToSubprocess` / `strictSdk` and emitting `onDispatchEvent` observability. For direct typed dispatch, use `createRegistry()` from `sdk/src/query/index.ts`. Full routing and golden rules: [QUERY-HANDLERS.md](../sdk/src/query/QUERY-HANDLERS.md).
**CLI-only (not in registry):** e.g. **graphify**, **from-gsd2** / **gsd2-import** — call `gsd-tools.cjs` until registered.
**Mutation events (SDK):** `QUERY_MUTATION_COMMANDS` in `sdk/src/query/index.ts` lists commands that may emit structured events after a successful dispatch. Exceptions called out in QUERY-HANDLERS: `state validate` (read-only), `skill-manifest` (writes only with `--write`), `intel update` (stub).
**Golden parity:** Policy and CJS↔SDK test categories are documented under **Golden parity** in [QUERY-HANDLERS.md](../sdk/src/query/QUERY-HANDLERS.md).

```
### State Snapshot
Structured parse of the full STATE.md:
```bash
node gsd-tools.cjs state-snapshot
```
Returns JSON with: current position, phase, plan, status, decisions, blockers, metrics, last activity.
---
## Phase Commands
Manage phases — directories, numbering, and roadmap sync.
```bash
# Find phase directory by number
node gsd-tools.cjs find-phase <phase>
# Calculate next decimal phase number for insertions
node gsd-tools.cjs phase next-decimal <phase>
# Append new phase to roadmap + create directory
node gsd-tools.cjs phase add <description>
# Insert decimal phase after existing
node gsd-tools.cjs phase insert <after> <description>
# Remove phase, renumber subsequent
node gsd-tools.cjs phase remove <phase> [--force]
# Mark phase complete, update state + roadmap
node gsd-tools.cjs phase complete <phase>
# Index plans with waves and status
node gsd-tools.cjs phase-plan-index <phase>
# List phases with filtering
node gsd-tools.cjs phases list [--type planned|executed|all] [--phase N] [--include-archived]
```
---
## Roadmap Commands
Parse and update `ROADMAP.md`.
```bash
# Extract phase section from ROADMAP.md
node gsd-tools.cjs roadmap get-phase <phase>
# Full roadmap parse with disk status
node gsd-tools.cjs roadmap analyze
# Update progress table row from disk
node gsd-tools.cjs roadmap update-plan-progress <N>
```
---
## Config Commands
Read and write `.planning/config.json`.
```bash
# Initialize config.json with defaults
node gsd-tools.cjs config-ensure-section
# Set a config value (dot notation)
node gsd-tools.cjs config-set <key> <value>
# Get a config value
node gsd-tools.cjs config-get <key>
# Set model profile
node gsd-tools.cjs config-set-model-profile <profile>
```
---
## Model Resolution
```bash
# Get model for agent based on current profile
node gsd-tools.cjs resolve-model <agent-name>
# Returns: opus | sonnet | haiku | inherit
```
Agent names: `gsd-planner`, `gsd-executor`, `gsd-phase-researcher`, `gsd-project-researcher`, `gsd-research-synthesizer`, `gsd-verifier`, `gsd-plan-checker`, `gsd-integration-checker`, `gsd-roadmapper`, `gsd-debugger`, `gsd-codebase-mapper`, `gsd-nyquist-auditor`
---
## Verification Commands
Validate plans, phases, references, and commits.
```bash
# Verify SUMMARY.md file
node gsd-tools.cjs verify-summary <path> [--check-count N]
# Check PLAN.md structure + tasks
node gsd-tools.cjs verify plan-structure <file>
# Check all plans have summaries
node gsd-tools.cjs verify phase-completeness <phase>
# Check @-refs + paths resolve
node gsd-tools.cjs verify references <file>
# Batch verify commit hashes
node gsd-tools.cjs verify commits <hash1> [hash2] ...
# Check must_haves.artifacts
node gsd-tools.cjs verify artifacts <plan-file>
# Check must_haves.key_links
node gsd-tools.cjs verify key-links <plan-file>
```
---
## Validation Commands
Check project integrity.
```bash
# Check phase numbering, disk/roadmap sync
node gsd-tools.cjs validate consistency
# Check .planning/ integrity, optionally repair
node gsd-tools.cjs validate health [--repair]
# Probe context-window utilization for status-line / hook callers (v1.40.0)
node gsd-tools.cjs validate context
```
`validate context` emits a structured envelope with `utilization`, `status`
(`ok` / `warn` / `critical` at the 60 % / 70 % thresholds), and a
`suggestion` string. The same data backs `/gsd-health --context`.
---
## Template Commands
Template selection and filling.
```bash
# Select summary template based on granularity
node gsd-tools.cjs template select <type>
# Fill template with variables
node gsd-tools.cjs template fill <type> --phase N [--plan M] [--name "..."] [--type execute|tdd] [--wave N] [--fields '{json}']
```
Template types for `fill`: `summary`, `plan`, `verification`
---
## Frontmatter Commands
YAML frontmatter CRUD operations on any Markdown file.
```bash
# Extract frontmatter as JSON
node gsd-tools.cjs frontmatter get <file> [--field key]
# Update single field
node gsd-tools.cjs frontmatter set <file> --field key --value jsonVal
# Merge JSON into frontmatter
node gsd-tools.cjs frontmatter merge <file> --data '{json}'
# Validate required fields
node gsd-tools.cjs frontmatter validate <file> --schema plan|summary|verification
```
---
## Scaffold Commands
Create pre-structured files and directories.
```bash
# Create CONTEXT.md template
node gsd-tools.cjs scaffold context --phase N
# Create UAT.md template
node gsd-tools.cjs scaffold uat --phase N
# Create VERIFICATION.md template
node gsd-tools.cjs scaffold verification --phase N
# Create phase directory
node gsd-tools.cjs scaffold phase-dir --phase N --name "phase name"
```
---
## Init Commands (Compound Context Loading)
Load all context needed for a specific workflow in one call. Returns JSON with project info, config, state, and workflow-specific data.
```bash
node gsd-tools.cjs init execute-phase <phase>
node gsd-tools.cjs init plan-phase <phase>
node gsd-tools.cjs init new-project
node gsd-tools.cjs init new-milestone
node gsd-tools.cjs init quick <description>
node gsd-tools.cjs init resume
node gsd-tools.cjs init verify-work <phase>
node gsd-tools.cjs init phase-op <phase>
node gsd-tools.cjs init todos [area]
node gsd-tools.cjs init milestone-op
node gsd-tools.cjs init map-codebase
node gsd-tools.cjs init progress
# Workstream-scoped init (SDK --ws flag)
node gsd-tools.cjs init execute-phase <phase> --ws <name>
node gsd-tools.cjs init plan-phase <phase> --ws <name>
```
**Large payload handling:** When output exceeds ~50KB, the CLI writes to a temp file and returns `@file:/tmp/gsd-init-XXXXX.json`. Workflows check for the `@file:` prefix and read from disk:
```bash
INIT=$(node gsd-tools.cjs init execute-phase "1")
if [[ "$INIT" == @file:* ]]; then INIT=$(cat "${INIT#@file:}"); fi
```
---
## Milestone Commands
```bash
# Archive milestone
node gsd-tools.cjs milestone complete <version> [--name <name>] [--archive-phases]
# Mark requirements as complete
node gsd-tools.cjs requirements mark-complete <ids>
# Accepts: REQ-01,REQ-02 or REQ-01 REQ-02 or [REQ-01, REQ-02]
```
---
## Skill Manifest
Pre-compute and cache skill discovery for faster command loading.
```bash
# Generate skill manifest (writes to .claude/skill-manifest.json)
node gsd-tools.cjs skill-manifest
# Generate with custom output path
node gsd-tools.cjs skill-manifest --output <path>
```
Returns JSON mapping of all available GSD skills with their metadata (name, description, file path, argument hints). Used by the installer and session-start hooks to avoid repeated filesystem scans.
---
## Utility Commands
```bash
# Convert text to URL-safe slug
node gsd-tools.cjs generate-slug "Some Text Here"
# → some-text-here
# Get timestamp
node gsd-tools.cjs current-timestamp [full|date|filename]
# Count and list pending todos
node gsd-tools.cjs list-todos [area]
# Check file/directory existence
node gsd-tools.cjs verify-path-exists <path>
# Aggregate all SUMMARY.md data
node gsd-tools.cjs history-digest
# Extract structured data from SUMMARY.md
node gsd-tools.cjs summary-extract <path> [--fields field1,field2]
# Project statistics
node gsd-tools.cjs stats [json|table]
# Progress rendering
node gsd-tools.cjs progress [json|table|bar]
# Complete a todo
node gsd-tools.cjs todo complete <filename>
# UAT audit — scan all phases for unresolved items
node gsd-tools.cjs audit-uat
# Cross-artifact audit queue — scan `.planning/` for unresolved audit items
node gsd-tools.cjs audit-open [--json]
# Reverse-migrate a GSD-2 project into the current structure (backs `/gsd-from-gsd2`)
node gsd-tools.cjs from-gsd2 [--path <dir>] [--force] [--dry-run]
# Git commit with config checks
node gsd-tools.cjs commit <message> [--files f1 f2] [--amend] [--no-verify]
```
> `--no-verify`: Skips pre-commit hooks. Used by parallel executor agents during wave-based execution to avoid build lock contention (e.g., cargo lock fights in Rust projects). The orchestrator runs hooks once after each wave completes. Do not use `--no-verify` during sequential execution — let hooks run normally.
# Web search (requires Brave API key)
node gsd-tools.cjs websearch <query> [--limit N] [--freshness day|week|month]
```
---
## Graphify
Build, query, and inspect the project knowledge graph in `.planning/graphs/`. Requires `graphify.enabled: true` in `config.json` (see [Configuration Reference](CONFIGURATION.md#graphify-settings)). Graphify is **CJS-only**: `gsd-sdk query` does not yet register graphify handlers — always use `node gsd-tools.cjs graphify …`.
```bash
# Build or rebuild the knowledge graph
node gsd-tools.cjs graphify build
# Search the graph for a term
node gsd-tools.cjs graphify query <term>
# Show graph freshness and statistics
node gsd-tools.cjs graphify status
# Show changes since the last build
node gsd-tools.cjs graphify diff
# Write a named snapshot of the current graph
node gsd-tools.cjs graphify snapshot [name]
```
User-facing entry point: `/gsd-graphify` (see [Command Reference](COMMANDS.md#gsd-graphify)).

## Reviewer CLI Routing
`review.models.<cli>` maps a reviewer flavor to a shell command invoked by the code-review workflow. Set via [`/gsd-settings-integrations`](COMMANDS.md#gsd-settings-integrations) or directly:
```bash
gsd-sdk query config-set review.models.codex "codex exec --model gpt-5"
gsd-sdk query config-set review.models.gemini "gemini -m gemini-2.5-pro"
gsd-sdk query config-set review.models.opencode "opencode run --model claude-sonnet-4"
gsd-sdk query config-set review.models.claude "" # clear — fall back to session model
```
Slugs are validated against `[a-zA-Z0-9_-]+`; empty or path-containing slugs are rejected. See [`docs/CONFIGURATION.md`](CONFIGURATION.md#code-review-cli-routing) for the full field reference.
## Secret Handling
API keys configured via `/gsd-settings-integrations` (`brave_search`, `firecrawl`, `exa_search`) are written plaintext to `.planning/config.json` but are masked (`****<last-4>`) in every `config-set` / `config-get` output, confirmation table, and interactive prompt. See `get-shit-done/bin/lib/secrets.cjs` for the masking implementation. The `config.json` file itself is the security boundary — protect it with filesystem permissions and keep it out of git (`.planning/` is gitignored by default).
