Cds discuss phase
Skill Enakoneschniy/claude-dev-stack/vendor/cds-workflow/skills/cds-discuss-phase
Gather phase context through adaptive questioning before planning. Use --auto to skip interactive questions (Claude picks recommended defaults). Use --chain for interactive discuss followed by automatic plan+execute. Use --power for bulk question generation into a file-based UI (answer at your own pace).From its SKILL.md

2 things to look at
- 5 stars5 stars. Stars are a popularity signal and not a quality one, but at this level it is likely that nobody has read this closely except its author, and you would be relying on your own review.
- runs commandsInstructs the agent to run 1 command, including `DISCUSS_MODE=$(node "$HOME/.claude/cds-workflow/bin/gsd-tools.cjs" config-get workflow.discuss_mode 2>/dev/null || echo "discuss")`.

How it works:
- Load prior context (PROJECT.md, REQUIREMENTS.md, STATE.md, prior CONTEXT.md files)
- Scout codebase for reusable assets and patterns
- Analyze phase — skip gray areas already decided in prior phases
- Present remaining gray areas — user selects which to discuss
- Deep-dive each selected area until satisfied
- Create CONTEXT.md with decisions that guide research and planning
Output: {phase_num}-CONTEXT.md — decisions clear enough that downstream agents can act without asking the user again

<runtime_note>
Copilot (VS Code): Use vscode_askquestions wherever this workflow calls AskUserQuestion. They are equivalent — vscode_askquestions is the VS Code Copilot implementation of the same interactive question API.
</runtime_note>
Context files are resolved in-workflow using init phase-op and roadmap/state tool calls.
</context>
If DISCUSS_MODE is "assumptions": Read and execute @$HOME/.claude/cds-workflow/workflows/discuss-phase-assumptions.md end-to-end.
If DISCUSS_MODE is "discuss" (or unset, or any other value): Read and execute @$HOME/.claude/cds-workflow/workflows/discuss-phase.md end-to-end.
MANDATORY: The execution_context files listed above ARE the instructions. Read the workflow file BEFORE taking any action. The objective and success_criteria sections in this command file are summaries — the workflow file contains the complete step-by-step process with all required behaviors, config checks, and interaction patterns. Do not improvise from the summary. </process>
<success_criteria>
- Prior context loaded and applied (no re-asking decided questions)
- Gray areas identified through intelligent analysis
- User chose which areas to discuss
- Each selected area explored until satisfied
- Scope creep redirected to deferred ideas
- CONTEXT.md captures decisions, not vague vision
- User knows next steps </success_criteria>
