open-gsd/gsd-capture

<objective> Capture ideas, tasks, notes, and seeds to their appropriate destination in the GSD system.

Mode routing:

• default (no flag): Capture as a structured todo for later work → add-todo workflow
• --note: Zero-friction idea capture (append/list/promote) → note workflow
• --backlog: Add an idea to the backlog parking lot (999.x numbering) → add-backlog workflow
• --seed: Capture a forward-looking idea with trigger conditions → plant-seed workflow
• --list: List pending todos and select one to work on → check-todos workflow
• --list-seeds: List/audit captured seeds (optional status filter) → list-seeds workflow

</objective>

<routing>

| Flag | Destination | Workflow | |------|-------------|----------| | (none) | Structured todo in .planning/todos/ | add-todo | | --note | Timestamped note file, list, or promote | note | | --backlog | ROADMAP.md backlog section (999.x) | add-backlog | | --seed | .planning/seeds/SEED-NNN-slug.md | plant-seed | | --list | Interactive todo browser + action router | check-todos | | --list-seeds | Read-only seed list/audit (optional status filter) | list-seeds |

<context> Arguments: $ARGUMENTS

Parse the first token of $ARGUMENTS:

• If it is --note: strip the flag, pass remainder to note workflow
• If it is --backlog: strip the flag, pass remainder to add-backlog workflow
• If it is --seed: strip the flag, pass remainder to plant-seed workflow
• If it is --list-seeds: strip the flag, pass remainder (optional status filter) to list-seeds workflow
• If it is --list: pass remainder (optional area filter) to check-todos workflow
• Otherwise: pass all of $ARGUMENTS to add-todo workflow

</context>

<process>

1. Parse the leading flag (if any) from $ARGUMENTS.
2. Load and execute the appropriate workflow end-to-end based on the routing table above.
3. Preserve all workflow gates from the target workflow (directory structure, duplicate detection, commits, etc.).
