This is the description your AI agent reads to decide when to run this skill — the better it matches your request, the more reliably it fires.

Key capabilities

  • Analyze freeform natural language input
  • Dispatch input to the most appropriate GSD command
  • Translate `AskUserQuestion` to `request_user_input`
  • Translate `Task()` to `spawn_agent`
  • Handle multi-select questions with workarounds
  • Parse structured markers from agent output

How it works

This skill analyzes freeform natural language input to determine user intent and then dispatches it to the most suitable GSD command, acting as a smart router.

Inputs & outputs

You give it
Freeform natural language text
You get back
Invocation of the most appropriate GSD command or a request for user input

When to use gsd-do

  • Route task
  • Collect user input
  • Spawn agent

About this skill

<codex_skill_adapter>

A. Skill Invocation

  • This skill is invoked by mentioning $gsd-do.
  • Treat all user text after $gsd-do as {{GSD_ARGS}}.
  • If no arguments are present, treat {{GSD_ARGS}} as empty.

B. AskUserQuestion → request_user_input Mapping

GSD workflows use AskUserQuestion (Claude Code syntax). Translate to Codex request_user_input:

Parameter mapping:

  • headerheader
  • questionquestion
  • Options formatted as "Label" — description{label: "Label", description: "description"}
  • Generate id from header: lowercase, replace spaces with underscores

Batched calls:

  • AskUserQuestion([q1, q2]) → single request_user_input with multiple entries in questions[]

Multi-select workaround:

  • Codex has no multiSelect. Use sequential single-selects, or present a numbered freeform list asking the user to enter comma-separated numbers.

Execute mode fallback:

  • When request_user_input is rejected (Execute mode), present a plain-text numbered list and pick a reasonable default.

C. Task() → spawn_agent Mapping

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 (Codex uses per-role config, not inline model selection)
  • fork_context: false by default — GSD agents load their own context via <files_to_read> blocks

Parallel fan-out:

  • Spawn multiple agents → collect agent IDs → wait(ids) for all to complete

Result parsing:

  • Look for structured markers in agent output: CHECKPOINT, PLAN COMPLETE, SUMMARY, etc.
  • close_agent(id) after collecting results from each agent </codex_skill_adapter>
<objective> Analyze freeform natural language input and dispatch to the most appropriate GSD command.

Acts as a smart dispatcher — never does the work itself. Matches intent to the best GSD command using routing rules, confirms the match, then hands off.

Use when you know what you want but don't know which /gsd-* command to run. </objective>

<execution_context> @C:/ExtratorLaudos/.codex/get-shit-done/workflows/do.md @C:/ExtratorLaudos/.codex/get-shit-done/references/ui-brand.md </execution_context>

<context> {{GSD_ARGS}} </context> <process> Execute the do workflow from @C:/ExtratorLaudos/.codex/get-shit-done/workflows/do.md end-to-end. Route user intent to the best GSD command and invoke it. </process>

When not to use it

  • When the skill should perform the work itself
  • When the intent is to bypass routing rules
  • When the user knows exactly which `/gsd-*` command to run

Limitations

  • Codex has no `multiSelect` functionality
  • Does not perform the work itself
  • Requires `AskUserQuestion` to be translated to `request_user_input`

How it compares

This workflow acts as an intelligent dispatcher, routing user intent to specific GSD commands, which is more efficient than manually selecting and invoking commands.
