discuss-phase- Description
- Gather phase context through adaptive questioning before planning. Use --all to skip area selection and discuss all gray areas interactively. Use --auto to skip interactive questions (Claude picks recommended defaults). Use --chain for interactive discuss followed by automatic plan+execute. Use --power for bulk question generation into a file-based UI (answer at your own pace).

<objective>
Extract implementation decisions that downstream agents need — researcher and planner will use CONTEXT.md to know what to investigate and what choices are locked.
**How it works:**
1. Load prior context (PROJECT.md, REQUIREMENTS.md, STATE.md, prior CONTEXT.md files)
2. Scout codebase for reusable assets and patterns
3. Analyze phase — skip gray areas already decided in prior phases
4. Present remaining gray areas — user selects which to discuss
5. Deep-dive each selected area until satisfied
6. Create CONTEXT.md with decisions that guide research and planning
**Output:** `{phase_num}-CONTEXT.md` — decisions clear enough that downstream agents can act without asking the user again
</objective>
<execution_context>
@${CLAUDE_PLUGIN_ROOT}/workflows/discuss-phase.md
@${CLAUDE_PLUGIN_ROOT}/workflows/discuss-phase-assumptions.md
@${CLAUDE_PLUGIN_ROOT}/workflows/discuss-phase-power.md
@${CLAUDE_PLUGIN_ROOT}/templates/context.md
</execution_context>
<runtime_note>
**Copilot (VS Code):** Use `vscode_askquestions` wherever this workflow calls `AskUserQuestion`. They are equivalent — `vscode_askquestions` is the VS Code Copilot implementation of the same interactive question API.
</runtime_note>
<context>
Phase number: $ARGUMENTS (required)
Context files are resolved in-workflow using `init phase-op` and roadmap/state tool calls.
</context>
<process>
**Mode routing:**
```bash
DISCUSS_MODE=$(bm-sdk query config-get workflow.discuss_mode 2>/dev/null || echo "discuss")
```
If `DISCUSS_MODE` is `"assumptions"`: Read and execute @${CLAUDE_PLUGIN_ROOT}/workflows/discuss-phase-assumptions.md end-to-end.
If `DISCUSS_MODE` is `"discuss"` (or unset, or any other value): Read and execute @${CLAUDE_PLUGIN_ROOT}/workflows/discuss-phase.md end-to-end.
**MANDATORY:** Read the routed workflow file BEFORE taking any action — it is the complete process. The objective and success_criteria sections here are summaries; do not improvise from them.
</process>
<success_criteria>
- Prior context loaded and applied (no re-asking decided questions)
- Gray areas identified through intelligent analysis
- User chose which areas to discuss
- Each selected area explored until satisfied
- Scope creep redirected to deferred ideas
- CONTEXT.md captures decisions, not vague vision
- User knows next steps
</success_criteria>From buildomator/buildomator, MIT.
