<objective>
Validate built features through conversational testing with persistent state.

Purpose: Confirm what Claude built actually works from user's perspective. One test at a time, plain text responses, no interrogation. When issues are found, automatically diagnose, plan fixes, and prepare for execution.

Output: {phase}-UAT.md tracking all test results. If issues found: diagnosed gaps, verified fix plans ready for /gsd-execute-phase
</objective>

<execution_context>
@./.opencode/get-shit-done/workflows/verify-work.md
@./.opencode/get-shit-done/templates/UAT.md
</execution_context>

<context>
Phase: $ARGUMENTS (optional)
- If provided: Test specific phase (e.g., "4")
- If not provided: Check for active sessions or prompt for phase

@.planning/STATE.md
@.planning/ROADMAP.md
</context>

<process>
1. Check for active UAT sessions (resume or start new)
2. Find SUMMARY.md files for the phase
3. Extract testable deliverables (user-observable outcomes)
4. Create {phase}-UAT.md with test list
5. Present tests one at a time:
   - Show expected behavior
   - Wait for plain text response
   - "yes/y/next" = pass, anything else = issue (severity inferred)
6. Update UAT.md after each response
7. On completion: commit, present summary
8. If issues found:
   - Spawn parallel debug agents to diagnose root causes
   - Spawn gsd-planner in --gaps mode to create fix plans
   - Spawn gsd-plan-checker to verify fix plans
   - Iterate planner ↔ checker until plans pass (max 3)
   - Present ready status with `/clear` then `/gsd-execute-phase`
</process>

<anti_patterns>
- Don't use question for test responses — plain text conversation
- Don't ask severity — infer from description
- Don't present full checklist upfront — one test at a time
- Don't run automated tests — this is manual user validation
- Don't fix issues during testing — log as gaps, diagnose after all tests complete
</anti_patterns>

<offer_next>
Output this markdown directly (not as a code block). Route based on UAT results:

| Status | Route |
|--------|-------|
| All tests pass + more phases | Route A (next phase) |
| All tests pass + last phase | Route B (milestone complete) |
| Issues found + fix plans ready | Route C (execute fixes) |
| Issues found + planning blocked | Route D (manual intervention) |

**Also available:**
- /gsd-plan-phase {Z+1} — skip discussion, plan directly
- /gsd-execute-phase {Z+1} — skip to execution (if already planned)

## ▶ Next Up

**Execute fix plans** — run diagnosed fixes

/gsd-execute-phase {Z} --gaps-only

<sub>/clear first → fresh context window</sub>

───────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────

**Also available:**
- cat .planning/phases/{phase_dir}/*-PLAN.md — review fix plans

Fix planning blocked after {X} iterations

### Unresolved Issues

{List blocking issues from planner/checker output}

**Manual intervention required**

Review the issues above and either:
1. Provide guidance for fix planning
2. Manually address blockers
3. Accept current state and continue

───────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────

**Options:**
- /gsd-plan-phase {Z} --gaps — retry fix planning with guidance
- /gsd-discuss-phase {Z} — gather more context before replanning
