Juan Francisco Lebrero 99c3375f18 feat: add gsd headless query for instant state inspection (#951) 
* feat: add `gsd headless query` for structured state inspection

Add read-only query commands that return parseable JSON without
spawning an LLM session. Decouples orchestrators from .gsd/ internals.

Targets: phase, cost, progress, next

* simplify: single `query` command returning full snapshot

Replace 4 query targets (phase/cost/progress/next) with one command
that returns everything in a single JSON object. Caller uses jq.

Also document query in README.md and docs/commands.md.

* docs: update gsd-headless skill and references

- SKILL.md: add missing flags (--supervised, --max-restarts, --response-timeout)
- references/commands.md: add query, discuss, remote, inspect, forensics
- references/multi-session.md: fix spawning syntax, use query for budget

* fix: remove integration tests that entered via merge

These files belong to the feat/headless-orchestration-skill branch
and were accidentally included during the upstream/main merge.
They contain TS errors (sessionTerminated scope issue) that break CI.

* fix: restore headless-command.ts deleted by accident

| `/gsd doctor` | Runtime health checks (7 checks) with auto-fix for common state corruption issues |
| `/gsd skill-health` | Skill lifecycle dashboard — usage stats, success rates, token trends, staleness warnings |
| `/gsd skill-health <name>` | Detailed view for a single skill |
| `/gsd skill-health --declining` | Show only skills flagged for declining performance |

| `/gsd parallel resume [MID]` | Resume paused workers |
| `/gsd parallel merge [MID]` | Merge completed milestones back to main |
See [Parallel Orchestration](./parallel-orchestration.md) for full documentation.
## Git Commands
| Command | Description |
|---------|-------------|
| `/worktree` (`/wt`) | Git worktree lifecycle — create, switch, merge, remove |
## Session Management
| Command | Description |
|---------|-------------|
| `/clear` | Start a new session (alias for `/new`) |
| `/exit` | Graceful shutdown — saves session state before exiting |
| `/kill` | Kill GSD process immediately |
| `/model` | Switch the active model |
| `/login` | Log in to an LLM provider |
| `/thinking` | Toggle thinking level during sessions |
| `/voice` | Toggle real-time speech-to-text (macOS, Linux) |
## Keyboard Shortcuts
| Shortcut | Action |
|----------|--------|
| `Ctrl+Alt+G` | Toggle dashboard overlay |
| `Ctrl+Alt+V` | Toggle voice transcription |
| `Ctrl+Alt+B` | Show background shell processes |
| `Ctrl+V` / `Alt+V` | Paste image from clipboard (screenshot → vision input) |
| `Escape` | Pause auto mode (preserves conversation) |
> **Note:** In terminals without Kitty keyboard protocol support (macOS Terminal.app, JetBrains IDEs), slash-command fallbacks are shown instead of `Ctrl+Alt` shortcuts.
>
> **Tip:** If `Ctrl+V` is intercepted by your terminal (e.g. Warp), use `Alt+V` instead for clipboard image paste.
## CLI Flags
| Flag | Description |
|------|-------------|
| `gsd` | Start a new interactive session |
| `gsd --continue` (`-c`) | Resume the most recent session for the current directory |
| `gsd --model <id>` | Override the default model for this session |
| `gsd --print "msg"` (`-p`) | Single-shot prompt mode (no TUI) |
| `gsd --mode <text\|json\|rpc\|mcp>` | Output mode for non-interactive use |
| `gsd --list-models [search]` | List available models and exit |
| `gsd sessions` | Interactive session picker — list all saved sessions for the current directory and choose one to resume |
| `gsd --debug` | Enable structured JSONL diagnostic logging for troubleshooting dispatch and state issues |
| `gsd config` | Re-run the setup wizard (LLM provider + tool keys) |
| `gsd update` | Update GSD to the latest version |
| `gsd headless new-milestone` | Create a new milestone from a context file (headless — no TUI required) |
## Headless Mode
`gsd headless` runs `/gsd` commands without a TUI — designed for CI, cron jobs, and scripted automation. It spawns a child process in RPC mode, auto-responds to interactive prompts, detects completion, and exits with meaningful exit codes.
```bash
# Run auto mode (default)
gsd headless
# Run a single unit
gsd headless next
# Instant JSON snapshot — no LLM, ~50ms
gsd headless query
# With timeout for CI
gsd headless --timeout 600000 auto
# Force a specific phase
gsd headless dispatch plan
# Create a new milestone from a context file and start auto mode
gsd headless new-milestone --context brief.md --auto
# Create a milestone from inline text
gsd headless new-milestone --context-text "Build a REST API with auth"
# Pipe context from stdin
echo "Build a CLI tool" | gsd headless new-milestone --context -
```
| Flag | Description |
|------|-------------|
| `--timeout N` | Overall timeout in milliseconds (default: 300000 / 5 min) |
| `--max-restarts N` | Auto-restart on crash with exponential backoff (default: 3). Set 0 to disable |
| `--json` | Stream all events as JSONL to stdout |
| `--model ID` | Override the model for the headless session |
| `--context <file>` | Context file for `new-milestone` (use `-` for stdin) |
| `--context-text <text>` | Inline context text for `new-milestone` |
| `--auto` | Chain into auto-mode after milestone creation |
**Exit codes:** `0` = complete, `1` = error or timeout, `2` = blocked.
Any `/gsd` subcommand works as a positional argument — `gsd headless status`, `gsd headless doctor`, `gsd headless dispatch execute`, etc.
### `gsd headless query`
Returns a single JSON object with the full project snapshot — no LLM session, no RPC child, instant response (~50ms). This is the recommended way for orchestrators and scripts to inspect GSD state.
```bash
gsd headless query | jq '.state.phase'
# "executing"
gsd headless query | jq '.next'
# {"action":"dispatch","unitType":"execute-task","unitId":"M001/S01/T03"}
gsd headless query | jq '.cost.total'
# 4.25
```
**Output schema:**
```json
{
"state": {
"phase": "executing",
"activeMilestone": { "id": "M001", "title": "..." },
"activeSlice": { "id": "S01", "title": "..." },
"activeTask": { "id": "T01", "title": "..." },
"registry": [{ "id": "M001", "status": "active" }, ...],
"progress": { "milestones": { "done": 0, "total": 2 }, "slices": { "done": 1, "total": 3 } },
"blockers": []
},
"next": {
"action": "dispatch",
"unitType": "execute-task",
"unitId": "M001/S01/T01"
},
"cost": {
"workers": [{ "milestoneId": "M001", "cost": 1.50, "state": "running", ... }],
"total": 1.50
}
}
```
## MCP Server Mode
`gsd --mode mcp` runs GSD as a [Model Context Protocol](https://modelcontextprotocol.io) server over stdin/stdout. This exposes all GSD tools (read, write, edit, bash, etc.) to external AI clients — Claude Desktop, VS Code Copilot, and any MCP-compatible host.
```bash
# Start GSD as an MCP server
gsd --mode mcp
```
The server registers all tools from the agent session and maps MCP `tools/list` and `tools/call` requests to GSD tool definitions. It runs until the transport closes.
