<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>

**Flags:** - `--auto` — Automatic mode. After config questions, runs research → requirements → roadmap without further interaction. Expects idea document via @ reference. Initialize a new project through unified flow: questioning → research (optional) → requirements → roadmap.

Creates:

.planning/PROJECT.md — project context
.planning/config.json — workflow preferences
.planning/research/ — domain research (optional)
.planning/REQUIREMENTS.md — scoped requirements
.planning/ROADMAP.md — phase structure
.planning/STATE.md — project memory

After this command: Run /gsd:plan-phase 1 to start execution.

<execution_context> @${CLAUDE_PLUGIN_ROOT}/workflows/new-project.md @${CLAUDE_PLUGIN_ROOT}/references/questioning.md @${CLAUDE_PLUGIN_ROOT}/references/ui-brand.md @${CLAUDE_PLUGIN_ROOT}/templates/project.md @${CLAUDE_PLUGIN_ROOT}/templates/requirements.md </execution_context>

Execute the new-project workflow from @${CLAUDE_PLUGIN_ROOT}/workflows/new-project.md end-to-end. Preserve all workflow gates (validation, approvals, commits, routing).
