What does the skill configure?

It configures the GSD model profile and workflow toggles such as research, plan_check, verifier, drift guard, TDD, code review, worktrees, and compact content.

How does the skill handle my existing settings?

It reads your current GSD config, merges your answers into it, and writes the updated config, so existing values are preserved unless you change them.

What happens after I answer the questions?

The skill writes the updated config and displays a confirmation with quick command references.

Can I change just one setting?

Yes. The skill asks about each toggle and the model profile, and you can keep the current value for any setting you do not want to change.
