$gsd-workstreams.$gsd-workstreams as {{GSD_ARGS}}.{{GSD_ARGS}} as empty.GSD workflows use AskUserQuestion (Claude Code syntax). Translate to Codex request_user_input:
Parameter mapping:
header → headerquestion → question"Label" — description → {label: "Label", description: "description"}id from header: lowercase, replace spaces with underscoresBatched calls:
AskUserQuestion([q1, q2]) → single request_user_input with multiple entries in questions[]Multi-select workaround:
multiSelect. Use sequential single-selects, or present a numbered freeform list asking the user to enter comma-separated numbers.Execute mode fallback:
request_user_input is rejected or unavailable, you MUST stop and present the questions as a plain-text numbered list, then wait for the user's reply. Do NOT pick a default and continue (#3018).--auto or --all),
(b) the user has explicitly approved a specific default for this question, or
(c) the workflow's documented contract says defaults are safe (e.g. autonomous lifecycle paths).GSD workflows use Task(...) (Claude Code syntax). Translate to Codex collaboration tools:
Direct mapping:
Task(subagent_type="X", prompt="Y") → spawn_agent(agent_type="X", message="Y")Task(model="...") → omit. spawn_agent has no inline model parameter;
GSD embeds the resolved per-agent model directly into each agent's .toml
at install time so model_overrides from .planning/config.json and
~/.gsd/defaults.json are honored automatically by Codex's agent router.fork_context: false by default — GSD agents load their own context via <files_to_read> blocksTask(isolation="worktree") / Agent(isolation="worktree") → no direct Codex mapping.
Codex spawn_agent does not create or bind a git worktree automatically.
Workflows that require this isolation must fail closed or use an explicit
manual worktree protocol before spawning (#3360).Spawn restriction:
spawn_agent to cases where the user has explicitly
requested sub-agents. When automatic spawning is not permitted, do the
work inline in the current agent rather than attempting to force a spawn.Parallel fan-out:

</codex_skill_adapter>Manage parallel workstreams for concurrent milestone work.
$gsd-workstreams [subcommand] [args]
| Command | Description |
|---------|-------------|
| list | List all workstreams with status |
| create <name> | Create a new workstream |
| status <name> | Detailed status for one workstream |
| switch <name> | Set active workstream |
| progress | Progress summary across all workstreams |
| complete <name> | Archive a completed workstream |
| resume <name> | Resume work in a workstream |
Parse the user's input to determine which workstream operation to perform.
If no subcommand given, default to list.
Run: gsd-sdk query workstream.list --raw --cwd "$CWD"
Display the workstreams in a table format showing name, status, current phase, and progress.
Run: gsd-sdk query workstream.create <name> --raw --cwd "$CWD"
After creation, display the new workstream path and suggest next steps:
$gsd-new-milestone --ws <name> to set up the milestoneRun: gsd-sdk query workstream.status <name> --raw --cwd "$CWD"
Display detailed phase breakdown and state information.
Run: gsd-sdk query workstream.set <name> --raw --cwd "$CWD"
Also set GSD_WORKSTREAM for the current session when the runtime supports it.
If the runtime exposes a session identifier, GSD also stores the active workstream
session-locally so concurrent sessions do not overwrite each other.
Run: gsd-sdk query workstream.progress --raw --cwd "$CWD"
Display a progress overview across all workstreams.
Run: gsd-sdk query workstream.complete <name> --raw --cwd "$CWD"
Archive the workstream to milestones/.
Set the workstream as active and suggest $gsd-resume-work --ws <name>.
Format the JSON output from gsd-sdk query into a human-readable display.
Include the ${GSD_WS} flag in any routing suggestions.
