open-gsd/gsd-sketch

<objective> Explore design directions through throwaway HTML mockups before committing to implementation. Each sketch produces 2-3 variants for comparison. Sketches live in .planning/sketches/ and integrate with GSD commit patterns, state tracking, and handoff workflows. Loads spike findings to ground mockups in real data shapes and validated interaction patterns.

Two modes:

• Idea mode (default) — describe a design idea to sketch
• Frontier mode (no argument or "frontier") — analyzes existing sketch landscape and proposes consistency and frontier sketches

Does not require prior new-project setup — auto-creates .planning/sketches/ if needed. </objective>

<context> Design idea: $ARGUMENTS

Available flags:

• --quick — Skip mood/direction intake, jump straight to decomposition and building. Use when the design direction is already clear.
• --wrap-up — Package sketch design findings into a persistent project skill for future build conversations. Runs the sketch-wrap-up workflow.

</context>

<process> Parse the first token of $ARGUMENTS:

• If it is --wrap-up: strip the flag, execute the sketch-wrap-up workflow end-to-end.
• Otherwise: execute the sketch workflow end-to-end.

Preserve all workflow gates (intake, decomposition, target stack research, variant evaluation, MANIFEST updates, commit patterns). </process>
