The instruction itself

as written by the author

<context>

Flags:

  • --name (required) — Workspace name
  • --repos — Comma-separated repo paths or names. If omitted, interactive selection from child git repos in cwd
  • --path — Target directory. Defaults to ~/gsd-workspaces/<name>
  • --strategyworktree (default, lightweight) or clone (fully independent)
  • --branch — Branch to checkout. Defaults to workspace/<name>
  • --auto — Skip interactive questions, use defaults

</context>

<objective>

Create a physical workspace directory containing copies of specified git repos (as worktrees or clones) with an independent .planning/ directory for isolated GSD sessions.

Use cases:

  • Multi-repo orchestration: work on a subset of repos in parallel with isolated GSD state
  • Feature branch isolation: create a worktree of the current repo with its own .planning/

Creates:

  • <path>/WORKSPACE.md — workspace manifest
  • <path>/.planning/ — independent planning directory
  • <path>/<repo>/ — git worktree or clone for each specified repo

After this command: cd into the workspace and run /gsd-new-project to initialize GSD.

</objective>

<execution_context>

@$HOME/.claude/get-shit-done/workflows/new-workspace.md

@$HOME/.claude/get-shit-done/references/ui-brand.md

</execution_context>

<process>

Execute the new-workspace workflow from @$HOME/.claude/get-shit-done/workflows/new-workspace.md end-to-end.

Preserve all workflow gates (validation, approvals, commits, routing).

</process>

How to use it

Copy the folder

Take coco-research/gsd-new-workspace from the repository into ~/.claude/skills for personal use, or into .claude/skills inside a project.

Check the name does not clash

The agent identifies a skill by the name field in its header. Two skills with the same name cannot sit side by side — one of them will be ignored.
