gsd:new-workspace

SkillAI & models

Create an isolated workspace with repo copies and independent .planning/

Instructions available. Your AI can read the instructions. Execution depends on the setup they require.

Add ahel to your AI once: Claude, ChatGPT, Cursor, Claude Code or Codex. Then ask it to use this.

Then ask your AI: use the gsd:new-workspace skill

What this skill tells your AI

The instructions your AI receives, as published by davepoon/buildwithclaude in plugins/gsd/skills/new-workspace/SKILL.md and read by ahel’s review.

Use cases:

  • Multi-repo orchestration: work on a subset of repos in parallel with isolated GSD state
  • Feature branch isolation: create a worktree of the current repo with its own .planning/

Creates:

  • <path>/WORKSPACE.md — workspace manifest
  • <path>/.planning/ — independent planning directory
  • <path>/<repo>/ — git worktree or clone for each specified repo

After this command: cd into the workspace and run /gsd:new-project to initialize GSD.
