gsd-add-todo - SKILL.md Agent Skill

name: "gsd-add-todo" description: "Capture idea or task as todo from current conversation context" metadata: short-description: "Capture idea or task as todo from current conversation context" risk: safe

## A. Skill Invocation - This skill is invoked by mentioning `$gsd-add-todo`. - Treat all user text after `$gsd-add-todo` as `{{GSD_ARGS}}`. - If no arguments are present, treat `{{GSD_ARGS}}` as empty.

B. AskUserQuestion → request_user_input Mapping

GSD workflows use AskUserQuestion (Claude Code syntax). Translate to Codex request_user_input:

Parameter mapping:

header → header
question → question
Options formatted as "Label" — description → {label: "Label", description: "description"}
Generate id from header: lowercase, replace spaces with underscores

Batched calls:

AskUserQuestion([q1, q2]) → single request_user_input with multiple entries in questions[]

Multi-select workaround:

Codex has no multiSelect. Use sequential single-selects, or present a numbered freeform list asking the user to enter comma-separated numbers.

Execute mode fallback:

When request_user_input is rejected (Execute mode), present a plain-text numbered list and pick a reasonable default.

C. Task() → spawn_agent Mapping

GSD workflows use Task(...) (Claude Code syntax). Translate to Codex collaboration tools:

Direct mapping:

Task(subagent_type="X", prompt="Y") → spawn_agent(agent_type="X", message="Y")
Task(model="...") → omit (Codex uses per-role config, not inline model selection)
fork_context: false by default — GSD agents load their own context via <files_to_read> blocks

Parallel fan-out:

Spawn multiple agents → collect agent IDs → wait(ids) for all to complete

Result parsing:

Look for structured markers in agent output: CHECKPOINT, PLAN COMPLETE, SUMMARY, etc.
close_agent(id) after collecting results from each agent

Capture an idea, task, or issue that surfaces during a GSD session as a structured todo for later work.

Routes to the add-todo workflow which handles:

Directory structure creation
Content extraction from arguments or conversation
Area inference from file paths
Duplicate detection and resolution
Todo file creation with frontmatter
STATE.md updates
Git commits

@C:/Users/nicol/.codex/get-shit-done/workflows/add-todo.md Arguments: {{GSD_ARGS}} (optional todo description)

State is resolved in-workflow via init todos and targeted reads.

**Follow the add-todo workflow** from `@C:/Users/nicol/.codex/get-shit-done/workflows/add-todo.md`.

The workflow handles all logic including:

Directory ensuring
Existing area checking
Content extraction (arguments or conversation)
Area inference
Duplicate checking
File creation with slug generation
STATE.md updates
Git commits
