+<purpose>
+Execute all plans in a phase using wave-based parallel execution. Orchestrator stays lean — delegates plan execution to subagents.
+</purpose>
+
+<core_principle>
+Orchestrator coordinates, not executes. Each subagent loads the full execute-plan context. Orchestrator: discover plans → analyze deps → group waves → spawn agents → handle checkpoints → collect results.
+</core_principle>
+
+<runtime_compatibility>
+**Subagent spawning is runtime-specific:**
+- **Claude Code:** Uses `Task(subagent_type="gsd-executor", ...)` — blocks until complete, returns result
+- **Copilot:** Subagent spawning does not reliably return completion signals. **Default to
+  sequential inline execution**: read and follow execute-plan.md directly for each plan
+  instead of spawning parallel agents. Only attempt parallel spawning if the user
+  explicitly requests it — and in that case, rely on the spot-check fallback in step 3
+  to detect completion.
+- **Other runtimes:** If `Task`/`task` tool is unavailable, use sequential inline execution as the
+  fallback. Check for tool availability at runtime rather than assuming based on runtime name.
+
+**Fallback rule:** If a spawned agent completes its work (commits visible, SUMMARY.md exists) but
+the orchestrator never receives the completion signal, treat it as successful based on spot-checks
+and continue to the next wave/plan. Never block indefinitely waiting for a signal — always verify
+via filesystem and git state.

+Rules:
+- If `blockers[]` is non-empty: stop immediately, show each blocker and fix, and do not continue to `initialize`.
+- If `warnings[]` is non-empty: show them once as runtime advisories, then continue.

+
+**If `response_language` is set:** Include `response_language: {value}` in all spawned subagent prompts so any user-facing output stays in the configured language.
+
+Read worktree config:
+
+```bash
+USE_WORKTREES=$(gsd-remix-sdk query config-get workflow.use_worktrees 2>/dev/null || echo "true")
+```
+
+If the project uses git submodules, worktree isolation is skipped regardless of the `workflow.use_worktrees` config — the executor commit protocol cannot correctly handle submodule commits inside isolated worktrees. Sequential execution handles submodules transparently.
+
+```bash
+if [ -f .gitmodules ]; then
+  echo "[worktree] Submodule project detected (.gitmodules exists) — falling back to sequential execution"
+  USE_WORKTREES=false
+fi
+```
+
+When `USE_WORKTREES` is `false`, all executor agents run without `isolation="worktree"` — they execute sequentially on the main working tree instead of in parallel worktrees.
+
+Read context window size for adaptive prompt enrichment:
+
+```bash
+CONTEXT_WINDOW=$(gsd-remix-sdk query config-get context_window 2>/dev/null || echo "200000")
+```
+
+When `CONTEXT_WINDOW >= 500000` (1M-class models), subagent prompts include richer context:
+- Executor agents receive prior wave SUMMARY.md files and the phase CONTEXT.md/RESEARCH.md
+- Verifier agents receive all PLAN.md, SUMMARY.md, CONTEXT.md files plus REQUIREMENTS.md
+- This enables cross-phase awareness and history-aware verification
+
+When `CONTEXT_WINDOW < 200000` (sub-200K models), subagent prompts are thinned to reduce static overhead:
+- Executor agents omit extended deviation rule examples and checkpoint examples from inline prompt — load on-demand via @~/.claude/get-shit-done/references/executor-examples.md
+- Planner agents omit extended anti-pattern lists and specificity examples from inline prompt — load on-demand via @~/.claude/get-shit-done/references/planner-antipatterns.md
+- Core rules and decision logic remain inline; only verbose examples and edge-case lists are extracted
+- This reduces executor static overhead by ~40% while preserving behavioral correctness
+
+**If `phase_found` is false:** Error — phase directory not found.
+**If `plan_count` is 0:** Error — no plans found in phase.
+**If `state_exists` is false but `.planning/` exists:** Offer reconstruct or continue.
+
+When `parallelization` is false, plans within a wave execute sequentially.
+
+**Runtime detection for Copilot:**
+Check if the current runtime is Copilot by testing for the `@gsd-executor` agent pattern
+or absence of the `Task()` subagent API. If running under Copilot, force sequential inline
+execution regardless of the `parallelization` setting — Copilot's subagent completion
+signals are unreliable (see `<runtime_compatibility>`). Set `COPILOT_SEQUENTIAL=true`
+internally and skip the `execute_waves` step in favor of `check_interactive_mode`'s
+inline path for each plan.
+
+**REQUIRED — Sync chain flag with intent.** If user invoked manually (no `--auto`), clear the ephemeral chain flag from any previous interrupted `--auto` chain. This prevents stale `_auto_chain_active: true` from causing unwanted auto-advance. This does NOT touch `workflow.auto_advance` (the user's persistent settings preference). You MUST execute this bash block before any config reads:
+```bash
+# REQUIRED: prevents stale auto-chain from previous --auto runs
+if [[ ! "$ARGUMENTS" =~ --auto ]]; then
+  gsd-remix-sdk query config-set workflow._auto_chain_active false 2>/dev/null

+
+<step name="check_blocking_antipatterns" priority="first">
+**MANDATORY — Check for blocking anti-patterns before any other work.**
+
+Look for a `.continue-here.md` in the current phase directory:
+
+```bash
+ls ${phase_dir}/.continue-here.md 2>/dev/null || true
+```
+
+If `.continue-here.md` exists, parse its "Critical Anti-Patterns" table for rows with `severity` = `blocking`.
+
+**If one or more `blocking` anti-patterns are found:**
+
+This step cannot be skipped. Before proceeding to `check_interactive_mode` or any other step, the agent must demonstrate understanding of each blocking anti-pattern by answering all three questions for each one:
+
+1. **What is this anti-pattern?** — Describe it in your own words, not by quoting the handoff.
+2. **How did it manifest?** — Explain the specific failure that caused it to be recorded.
+3. **What structural mechanism (not acknowledgment) prevents it?** — Name the concrete step, checklist item, or enforcement mechanism that stops recurrence.
+
+Write these answers inline before continuing. If a blocking anti-pattern cannot be answered from the context in `.continue-here.md`, stop and ask the user for clarification.
+
+**If no `.continue-here.md` exists, or no `blocking` rows are found:** Proceed directly to `check_interactive_mode`.
+</step>
+
+<step name="check_interactive_mode">
+**Parse `--interactive` flag from $ARGUMENTS.**
+
+**If `--interactive` flag present:** Switch to interactive execution mode.
+
+Interactive mode executes plans sequentially **inline** (no subagent spawning) with user
+checkpoints between tasks. The user can review, modify, or redirect work at any point.
+
+**Interactive execution flow:**
+
+1. Load plan inventory as normal (discover_and_group_plans)
+2. For each plan (sequentially, ignoring wave grouping):
+
+   a. **Present the plan to the user:**
+      ```
+      ## Plan {plan_id}: {plan_name}
+
+      Objective: {from plan file}
+      Tasks: {task_count}
+
+      Options:
+      - Execute (proceed with all tasks)
+      - Review first (show task breakdown before starting)
+      - Skip (move to next plan)
+      - Stop (end execution, save progress)
+      ```
+
+   b. **If "Review first":** Read and display the full plan file. Ask again: Execute, Modify, Skip.
+
+   c. **If "Execute":** Read and follow `~/.claude/get-shit-done/workflows/execute-plan.md` **inline**
+      (do NOT spawn a subagent). Execute tasks one at a time.
+
+   d. **After each task:** Pause briefly. If the user intervenes (types anything), stop and address
+      their feedback before continuing. Otherwise proceed to next task.
+
+   e. **After plan complete:** Show results, commit, create SUMMARY.md, then present next plan.
+
+3. After all plans: proceed to verification (same as normal mode).
+
+**Benefits of interactive mode:**
+- No subagent overhead — dramatically lower token usage
+- User catches mistakes early — saves costly verification cycles
+- Maintains GSD's planning/tracking structure
+- Best for: small phases, bug fixes, verification gaps, learning GSD

+
+<step name="cross_ai_delegation">
+**Optional step 2.5 — Delegate plans to an external AI runtime.**
+
+This step runs after plan discovery and before normal wave execution. It identifies plans
+that should be delegated to an external AI command and executes them via stdin-based prompt
+delivery. Plans handled here are removed from the execute_waves plan list so the normal
+executor skips them.
+
+**Activation logic:**
+
+1. If `CROSS_AI_DISABLED` is true (`--no-cross-ai` flag): skip this step entirely.
+2. If `CROSS_AI_FORCE` is true (`--cross-ai` flag): mark ALL incomplete plans for cross-AI execution.
+3. Otherwise: check each plan's frontmatter for `cross_ai: true` AND verify config
+   `workflow.cross_ai_execution` is `true`. Plans matching both conditions are marked for cross-AI.
+
+```bash
+CROSS_AI_ENABLED=$(gsd-remix-sdk query config-get workflow.cross_ai_execution 2>/dev/null || echo "false")
+CROSS_AI_CMD=$(gsd-remix-sdk query config-get workflow.cross_ai_command 2>/dev/null || echo "")
+CROSS_AI_TIMEOUT=$(gsd-remix-sdk query config-get workflow.cross_ai_timeout 2>/dev/null || echo "300")
+```
+
+**If no plans are marked for cross-AI:** Skip to execute_waves.
+
+**If plans are marked but `cross_ai_command` is empty:** Error — tell user to set
+`workflow.cross_ai_command` via `gsd-remix-sdk query config-set workflow.cross_ai_command "<command>"`.
+
+**For each cross-AI plan (sequentially):**
+
+1. **Construct the task prompt** from the plan file:
+   - Extract `<objective>` and `<tasks>` sections from the PLAN.md
+   - Append PROJECT.md context (project name, description, tech stack)
+   - Format as a self-contained execution prompt
+
+2. **Check for dirty working tree before execution:**
+   ```bash
+   if ! git diff --quiet HEAD 2>/dev/null; then
+     echo "WARNING: dirty working tree detected — the external AI command may produce uncommitted changes that conflict with existing modifications"
+   fi
+   ```
+
+3. **Run the external command** from the project root, writing the prompt to stdin.
+   Never shell-interpolate the prompt — always pipe via stdin to prevent injection:
+   ```bash
+   echo "$TASK_PROMPT" | timeout "${CROSS_AI_TIMEOUT}s" ${CROSS_AI_CMD} > "$CANDIDATE_SUMMARY" 2>"$ERROR_LOG"
+   EXIT_CODE=$?
+   ```
+
+4. **Evaluate the result:**
+
+   **Success (exit 0 + valid summary):**
+   - Read `$CANDIDATE_SUMMARY` and validate it contains meaningful content
+     (not empty, has at least a heading and description — a valid SUMMARY.md structure)
+   - Write it as the plan's SUMMARY.md file
+   - Update STATE.md plan status to complete
+   - Update ROADMAP.md progress
+   - Mark plan as handled — skip it in execute_waves
+
+   **Failure (non-zero exit or invalid summary):**
+   - Display the error output and exit code
+   - Warn: "The external command may have left uncommitted changes or partial edits
+     in the working tree. Review `git status` and `git diff` before proceeding."
+   - Offer three choices:
+     - **retry** — run the same plan through cross-AI again
+     - **skip** — fall back to normal executor for this plan (re-add to execute_waves list)
+     - **abort** — stop execution entirely, preserve state for resume
+
+5. **After all cross-AI plans processed:** Remove successfully handled plans from the
+   incomplete plan list so execute_waves skips them. Any skipped-to-fallback plans remain
+   in the list for normal executor processing.
+</step>
+
+<step name="execute_waves">
+Execute each selected wave in sequence. Within a wave: parallel if `PARALLELIZATION=true`, sequential if `false`.
+
+**For each wave:**
+
+1. **Intra-wave files_modified overlap check (BEFORE spawning):**
+
+   Before spawning any agents for this wave, inspect the `files_modified` list of all plans
+   in the wave. Check every pair of plans in the wave — if any two plans share even one file
+   in their `files_modified` lists, those plans have an implicit dependency and MUST NOT run
+   in parallel.
+
+   **Detection algorithm (pseudocode):**
+   ```
+   seen_files = {}
+   overlapping_plans = []
+   for each plan in wave_plans:
+     for each file in plan.files_modified:
+       if file in seen_files:
+         overlapping_plans.add(plan, seen_files[file])  # both plans overlap on this file
+       else:
+         seen_files[file] = plan
+   ```
+
+   **If overlap is detected:**
+   - Warn the user:
+     ```
+     ⚠ Intra-wave files_modified overlap detected in Wave {N}:
+       Plan {A} and Plan {B} both modify {file}
+       Running these plans sequentially to avoid parallel worktree conflicts.
+     ```
+   - Override `PARALLELIZATION` to `false` for this wave only — run all plans in the wave
+     sequentially regardless of the global parallelization setting.
+   - This is a safety net for plans that were incorrectly assigned to the same wave.
+     The planner should have caught this; flag it as a planning defect so the user can
+     replan the phase if desired.
+
+   **If no overlap:** proceed normally (parallel if `PARALLELIZATION=true`).
+
+2. **Describe what's being built (BEFORE spawning):**
+
+   Read each plan's `<objective>`. Extract what's being built and why.
+
+   ```
+   ---
+   ## Wave {N}
+
+   **{Plan ID}: {Plan Name}**
+   {2-3 sentences: what this builds, technical approach, why it matters}
+
+   Spawning {count} agent(s)...
+   ---
+   ```
+
+   - Bad: "Executing terrain generation plan"
+   - Good: "Procedural terrain generator using Perlin noise — creates height maps, biome zones, and collision meshes. Required before vehicle physics can interact with ground."
+
+3. **Spawn executor agents:**
+
+   Pass paths only — executors read files themselves with their fresh context window.
+   For 200k models, this keeps orchestrator context lean (~10-15%).
+   For 1M+ models (Opus 4.6, Sonnet 4.6), richer context can be passed directly.
+
+   **Worktree mode** (`USE_WORKTREES` is not `false`):
+
+   Before spawning, capture the current HEAD:
+   ```bash
+   EXPECTED_BASE=$(git rev-parse HEAD)
+   ```
+
+   **Sequential dispatch for parallel execution (waves with 2+ agents):**
+   When spawning multiple agents in a wave, dispatch each `Task()` call **one at a time
+   with `run_in_background: true`** — do NOT send all Task calls in a single message.
+   `git worktree add` acquires an exclusive lock on `.git/config.lock`, so simultaneous
+   calls race for this lock and fail. Sequential dispatch ensures each worktree finishes
+   creation before the next begins (the round-trip latency of each tool call provides
+   natural spacing), while all agents still **run in parallel** once created.
+
+   ```
+   # CORRECT: dispatch one Task() per message, each with run_in_background: true
+   # → worktrees created sequentially, agents execute in parallel
+   #
+   # WRONG: multiple Task() calls in a single message
+   # → simultaneous git worktree add → .git/config.lock contention → failures
+   ```
+
+   ```

+       ```
+
+       If `ACTUAL_BASE` != `{EXPECTED_BASE}` (i.e. the worktree branch was created from an older
+       base such as `main` instead of the feature branch HEAD), hard-reset to the correct base:
+       ```bash
+       # Safe: this runs before any agent work, so no uncommitted changes to lose
+       git reset --hard {EXPECTED_BASE}
+       # Verify correction succeeded
+       if [ "$(git rev-parse HEAD)" != "{EXPECTED_BASE}" ]; then
+         echo "ERROR: Could not correct worktree base — aborting to prevent data loss"
+         exit 1
+       fi
+       ```
+
+       `reset --hard` is safe here because this is a fresh worktree with no user changes. It
+       resets both the HEAD pointer AND the working tree to the correct base commit (#2015).
+
+       If `ACTUAL_BASE` == `{EXPECTED_BASE}`: the branch base is correct, proceed immediately.
+
+       This check fixes a known issue where `EnterWorktree` creates branches from
+       `main` instead of the current feature branch HEAD (affects all platforms).
+       </worktree_branch_check>
+
+       <parallel_execution>
+       You are running as a PARALLEL executor agent in a git worktree.
+       Use --no-verify on all git commits to avoid pre-commit hook contention
+       with other agents. The orchestrator validates hooks once after all agents complete.
+       For `gsd-remix-sdk query commit` (or legacy `gsd-tools.cjs` commit): add --no-verify flag when needed.
+       For direct git commits: use git commit --no-verify -m "..."
+
+       IMPORTANT: Do NOT modify STATE.md or ROADMAP.md. execute-plan.md
+       auto-detects worktree mode (`.git` is a file, not a directory) and skips
+       shared file updates automatically. The orchestrator updates them centrally
+       after merge.
+
+       REQUIRED: SUMMARY.md MUST be committed before you return. In worktree mode the
+       git_commit_metadata step in execute-plan.md commits SUMMARY.md and REQUIREMENTS.md
+       only (STATE.md and ROADMAP.md are excluded automatically). Do NOT skip or defer
+       this commit — the orchestrator force-removes the worktree after you return, and
+       any uncommitted SUMMARY.md will be permanently lost (#2070).

+       <success_criteria>
+       - [ ] All tasks executed
+       - [ ] Each task committed individually
+       - [ ] SUMMARY.md created in plan directory
+       - [ ] No modifications to shared orchestrator artifacts (the orchestrator handles all post-wave shared-file writes)
+       </success_criteria>
+     "
+   )
+   ```
+
+   **Sequential mode** (`USE_WORKTREES` is `false`):
+
+   Omit `isolation="worktree"` from the Task call. Replace the `<parallel_execution>` block with:
+
+   ```
+       <sequential_execution>
+       You are running as a SEQUENTIAL executor agent on the main working tree.
+       Use normal git commits (with hooks). Do NOT use --no-verify.
+       </sequential_execution>
+   ```
+
+   The sequential mode Task prompt uses the same structure as worktree mode but with these differences in success_criteria — since there is only one agent writing at a time, there are no shared-file conflicts:
+
+   ```
+       <success_criteria>
+       - [ ] All tasks executed
+       - [ ] Each task committed individually
+       - [ ] SUMMARY.md created in plan directory
+       - [ ] STATE.md updated with position and decisions
+       - [ ] ROADMAP.md updated with plan progress (via `roadmap update-plan-progress`)
+       </success_criteria>
+   ```
+
+   When worktrees are disabled, execute plans **one at a time within each wave** (sequential) regardless of the `PARALLELIZATION` setting — multiple agents writing to the same working tree concurrently would cause conflicts.
+
+4. **Wait for all agents in wave to complete.**
+
+   **Completion signal fallback (Copilot and runtimes where Task() may not return):**
+
+   If a spawned agent does not return a completion signal but appears to have finished
+   its work, do NOT block indefinitely. Instead, verify completion via spot-checks:
+
+   ```bash
+   # For each plan in this wave, check if the executor finished:
+   SUMMARY_EXISTS=$(test -f "{phase_dir}/{plan_number}-{plan_padded}-SUMMARY.md" && echo "true" || echo "false")
+   COMMITS_FOUND=$(git log --oneline --all --grep="{phase_number}-{plan_padded}" --since="1 hour ago" | head -1)
+   ```
+
+   **If SUMMARY.md exists AND commits are found:** The agent completed successfully —
+   treat as done and proceed to step 5. Log: `"✓ {Plan ID} completed (verified via spot-check — completion signal not received)"`
+
+   **If SUMMARY.md does NOT exist after a reasonable wait:** The agent may still be
+   running or may have failed silently. Check `git log --oneline -5` for recent
+   activity. If commits are still appearing, wait longer. If no activity, report
+   the plan as failed and route to the failure handler in step 6.
+
+   **This fallback applies automatically to all runtimes.** Claude Code's Task() normally
+   returns synchronously, but the fallback ensures resilience if it doesn't.
+
+5. **Post-wave hook validation (parallel mode only):**
+
+   When agents committed with `--no-verify`, run pre-commit hooks once after the wave:
+   ```bash
+   # Run project's pre-commit hooks on the current state
+   git diff --cached --quiet || git stash  # stash any unstaged changes
+   git hook run pre-commit 2>&1 || echo "⚠ Pre-commit hooks failed — review before continuing"
+   ```
+   If hooks fail: report the failure and ask "Fix hook issues now?" or "Continue to next wave?"
+
+5.5. **Worktree cleanup (when `isolation="worktree"` was used):**
+
+   When executor agents ran in worktree isolation, their commits land on temporary branches in separate working trees. After the wave completes, merge these changes back and clean up:
+
+   ```bash
+   # List worktrees created by this wave's agents
+   WORKTREES=$(git worktree list --porcelain | grep "^worktree " | grep -v "$(pwd)$" | sed 's/^worktree //')
+
+   for WT in $WORKTREES; do
+     # Get the branch name for this worktree
+     WT_BRANCH=$(git -C "$WT" rev-parse --abbrev-ref HEAD 2>/dev/null)
+     if [ -n "$WT_BRANCH" ] && [ "$WT_BRANCH" != "HEAD" ]; then

+
+   **If `workflow.use_worktrees` is `false`:** Agents ran on the main working tree — skip this step entirely.
+
+   **If no worktrees found:** Skip silently — agents may have been spawned without worktree isolation.
+
+5.6. **Post-merge test gate (parallel mode only):**
+
+   After merging all worktrees in a wave, run the project's test suite to catch
+   cross-plan integration issues that individual worktree self-checks cannot detect
+   (e.g., conflicting type definitions, removed exports, import changes).
+
+   This addresses the Generator self-evaluation blind spot identified in Anthropic's
+   harness engineering research: agents reliably report Self-Check: PASSED even when
+   merging their work creates failures.
+
+   ```bash
+   # Resolve test command: project config > Makefile > language sniff
+   TEST_CMD=$(gsd-remix-sdk query config-get workflow.test_command --default "" 2>/dev/null || true)
+   if [ -z "$TEST_CMD" ]; then

+   TEST_EXIT=$?
+   if [ "${TEST_EXIT}" -eq 0 ]; then
+     echo "✓ Post-merge test gate passed — no cross-plan conflicts"
+   elif [ "${TEST_EXIT}" -eq 124 ]; then
+     echo "⚠ Post-merge test gate timed out after 5 minutes"
+   else
+     echo "✗ Post-merge test gate failed (exit code ${TEST_EXIT})"
+     WAVE_FAILURE_COUNT=$((WAVE_FAILURE_COUNT + 1))
+   fi
+   ```
+
+   **If `TEST_EXIT` is 0 (pass):** `✓ Post-merge test gate: {N} tests passed — no cross-plan conflicts` → continue to orchestrator tracking update.
+
+   **If `TEST_EXIT` is 124 (timeout):** Log warning, treat as non-blocking, continue. Tests may need a longer budget or manual run.
+
+   **If `TEST_EXIT` is non-zero (test failure):** Increment `WAVE_FAILURE_COUNT` to track
+   cumulative failures across waves. Subsequent waves should report:
+   `⚠ Note: ${WAVE_FAILURE_COUNT} prior wave(s) had test failures`
+
+5.7. **Post-wave shared artifact update (worktree mode only, skip if tests failed):**
+
+   When executor agents ran with `isolation="worktree"`, they skipped STATE.md and ROADMAP.md updates to avoid last-merge-wins overwrites. The orchestrator is the single writer for these files. After worktrees are merged back, update shared artifacts once.
+
+   **Only update tracking when tests passed (TEST_EXIT=0).**
+   If tests failed or timed out, skip the tracking update — plans should
+   not be marked as complete when integration tests are failing or inconclusive.
+
+   ```bash
+   # Guard: only update tracking if post-merge tests passed
+   # Timeout (124) is treated as inconclusive — do NOT mark plans complete
+   if [ "${TEST_EXIT}" -eq 0 ]; then
+     # Update ROADMAP plan progress for each completed plan in this wave
+     for plan_id in {completed_plan_ids}; do
+       gsd-remix-sdk query roadmap.update-plan-progress "${PHASE_NUMBER}" "${plan_id}" "complete"
+     done
+
+     # Only commit tracking files if they actually changed
+     if ! git diff --quiet .planning/ROADMAP.md .planning/STATE.md 2>/dev/null; then
+       gsd-remix-sdk query commit "docs(phase-${PHASE_NUMBER}): update tracking after wave ${N}" .planning/ROADMAP.md .planning/STATE.md
+     fi
+   elif [ "${TEST_EXIT}" -eq 124 ]; then
+     echo "⚠ Skipping tracking update — test suite timed out. Plans remain in-progress. Run tests manually to confirm."
+   else
+     echo "⚠ Skipping tracking update — post-merge tests failed (exit ${TEST_EXIT}). Plans remain in-progress until tests pass."
+   fi
+   ```
+
+   Where `WAVE_PLAN_IDS` is the space-separated list of plan IDs that completed in this wave.
+
+   **If `workflow.use_worktrees` is `false`:** Sequential agents already updated STATE.md and ROADMAP.md themselves — skip this step.
+
+5.8. **Handle test gate failures (when `WAVE_FAILURE_COUNT > 0`):**
+
+   ```
+   ## ⚠ Post-Merge Test Failure (cumulative failures: ${WAVE_FAILURE_COUNT})
+
+   Wave {N} worktrees merged successfully, but {M} tests fail after merge.
+   This typically indicates conflicting changes across parallel plans
+   (e.g., type definitions, shared imports, API contracts).
+
+   Failed tests:
+   {first 10 lines of failure output}
+
+   Options:
+   1. Fix now (recommended) — resolve conflicts before next wave
+   2. Continue — failures may compound in subsequent waves
+   ```
+
+   Note: If `WAVE_FAILURE_COUNT > 1`, strongly recommend "Fix now" — compounding
+   failures across multiple waves become exponentially harder to diagnose.
+
+   If "Fix now": diagnose failures (typically import conflicts, missing types,
+   or changed function signatures from parallel plans modifying the same module).
+   Fix, commit as `fix: resolve post-merge conflicts from wave {N}`, re-run tests.
+
+   **Why this matters:** Worktree isolation means each agent's Self-Check passes
+   in isolation. But when merged, add/add conflicts in shared files (models, registries,
+   CLI entry points) can silently drop code. The post-merge gate catches this before
+   the next wave builds on a broken foundation.
+
+6. **Report completion — spot-check claims first:**
+
+   For each SUMMARY.md:
+   - Verify first 2 files from `key-files.created` exist on disk
+   - Check `git log --oneline --all --grep="{phase}-{plan}"` returns ≥1 commit
+   - Check for `## Self-Check: FAILED` marker
+
+   If ANY spot-check fails: report which plan failed, route to failure handler — ask "Retry plan?" or "Continue with remaining waves?"
+
+   If pass:
+   ```
+   ---
+   ## Wave {N} Complete
+
+   **{Plan ID}: {Plan Name}**
+   {What was built — from SUMMARY.md}
+   {Notable deviations, if any}
+
+   {If more waves: what this enables for next wave}
+   ---
+   ```
+
+   - Bad: "Wave 2 complete. Proceeding to Wave 3."
+   - Good: "Terrain system complete — 3 biome types, height-based texturing, physics collision meshes. Vehicle physics (Wave 3) can now reference ground surfaces."
+
+7. **Handle failures:**
+
+   **Known Claude Code bug (classifyHandoffIfNeeded):** If an agent reports "failed" with error containing `classifyHandoffIfNeeded is not defined`, this is a Claude Code runtime bug — not a GSD or agent issue. The error fires in the completion handler AFTER all tool calls finish. In this case: run the same spot-checks as step 5 (SUMMARY.md exists, git commits present, no Self-Check: FAILED). If spot-checks PASS → treat as **successful**. If spot-checks FAIL → treat as real failure below.
+
+   For real failures: report which plan failed → ask "Continue?" or "Stop?" → if continue, dependent plans may also fail. If stop, partial completion report.
+
+7b. **Pre-wave dependency check (waves 2+ only):**
+
+    Before spawning wave N+1, for each plan in the upcoming wave:
+    ```bash
+    gsd-remix-sdk query verify.key-links {phase_dir}/{plan}-PLAN.md
+    ```
+
+    If any key-link from a PRIOR wave's artifact fails verification:
+
+    ## Cross-Plan Wiring Gap
+
+    | Plan | Link | From | Expected Pattern | Status |
+    |------|------|------|-----------------|--------|
+    | {plan} | {via} | {from} | {pattern} | NOT FOUND |
+
+    Wave {N} artifacts may not be properly wired. Options:
+    1. Investigate and fix before continuing
+    2. Continue (may cause cascading failures in wave {N+1})
+
+    Key-links referencing files in the CURRENT (upcoming) wave are skipped.
+
+8. **Execute checkpoint plans between waves** — see `<checkpoint_handling>`.
+
+9. **Proceed to next wave.**
+</step>
+
+<step name="checkpoint_handling">
+Plans with `autonomous: false` require user interaction.
+
+**Auto-mode checkpoint handling:**
+
+Read auto-advance config (chain flag OR user preference — same boolean as `check.auto-mode`):
+```bash
+AUTO_MODE=$(gsd-remix-sdk query check auto-mode --pick active 2>/dev/null || echo "false")
+```
+
+When executor returns a checkpoint AND `AUTO_MODE` is `true`:
+- **human-verify** → Auto-spawn continuation agent with `{user_response}` = `"approved"`. Log `⚡ Auto-approved checkpoint`.
+- **decision** → Auto-spawn continuation agent with `{user_response}` = first option from checkpoint details. Log `⚡ Auto-selected: [option]`.
+- **human-action** → Present to user (existing behavior below). Auth gates cannot be automated.
+
+**Standard flow (not auto-mode, or human-action type):**
+
+1. Spawn agent for checkpoint plan
+2. Agent runs until checkpoint task or auth gate → returns structured state
+3. Agent return includes: completed tasks table, current task + blocker, checkpoint type/details, what's awaited
+4. **Present to user:**
+   ```
+   ## Checkpoint: [Type]
+
+   **Plan:** 03-03 Dashboard Layout
+   **Progress:** 2/3 tasks complete
+
+   [Checkpoint Details from agent return]
+   [Awaiting section from agent return]
+   ```
+5. User responds: "approved"/"done" | issue description | decision selection
+6. **Spawn continuation agent (NOT resume)** using continuation-prompt.md template:
+   - `{completed_tasks_table}`: From checkpoint return
+   - `{resume_task_number}` + `{resume_task_name}`: Current task
+   - `{user_response}`: What user provided
+   - `{resume_instructions}`: Based on checkpoint type
+7. Continuation agent verifies previous commits, continues from resume point
+8. Repeat until plan completes or user stops
+
+**Why fresh agent, not resume:** Resume relies on internal serialization that breaks with parallel tool calls. Fresh agents with explicit state are more reliable.
+
+**Checkpoints in parallel waves:** Agent pauses and returns while other parallel agents may complete. Present checkpoint, spawn continuation, wait for all before next wave.

+2. For each TDD plan summary, verify the RED/GREEN/REFACTOR gate sequence:
+   - RED gate: A failing test commit exists (`test(...)` commit with MUST-fail evidence)
+   - GREEN gate: An implementation commit exists (`feat(...)` commit making tests pass)
+   - REFACTOR gate: Optional cleanup commit (`refactor(...)` commit, tests still pass)
+3. If any TDD plan is missing the RED or GREEN gate commits, flag it:
+   ```
+   ⚠ TDD gate violation: Plan {plan_id} missing {RED|GREEN} phase commit.
+     Expected commit pattern: test({phase}-{plan}): ... → feat({phase}-{plan}): ...
+   ```

+
+**If no parent UAT found:** Skip this step (gap-closure may have been triggered by VERIFICATION.md instead).
+
+**3. Update UAT gap statuses:**
+
+Read the parent UAT file's `## Gaps` section. For each gap entry with `status: failed`:
+- Update to `status: resolved`
+
+**4. Update UAT frontmatter:**
+
+If all gaps now have `status: resolved`:
+- Update frontmatter `status: diagnosed` → `status: resolved`
+- Update frontmatter `updated:` timestamp
+
+**5. Resolve referenced debug sessions:**
+
+For each gap that has a `debug_session:` field:
+- Read the debug session file
+- Update frontmatter `status:` → `resolved`
+- Update frontmatter `updated:` timestamp
+- Move to resolved directory:
+```bash

+
+For each VERIFICATION.md found, look for test file references:
+- Lines containing `test`, `spec`, or `__tests__` paths
+- The "Test Suite" or "Automated Checks" section
+- File patterns from `key-files.created` in corresponding SUMMARY.md files that match `*.test.*` or `*.spec.*`
