# Skill reference

> Find the router, phase skills, and tools that work alongside the pipeline.

Use `$skill-name` in Codex and `/skill-name` on slash-command hosts. The router
is the normal entry point. A directly invoked phase skill handles its phase
and stops at a handoff.

## Router and phases

| Skill               | Purpose                                                    |
| ------------------- | ---------------------------------------------------------- |
| `path`              | Short alias for `gsd-path`                                 |
| `gsd-path`          | Read state and route the next phase; `status` is read-only |
| `gsd-path-inspect`  | Map existing code and audit documentation                  |
| `gsd-path-define`   | Define intent or a program charter                         |
| `gsd-path-research` | Gather evidence for open questions                         |
| `gsd-path-decide`   | Record decisions supported by evidence                     |
| `gsd-path-roadmap`  | Slice a program into milestones                            |
| `gsd-path-plan`     | Create waves, task contracts, and verification coverage    |
| `gsd-path-build`    | Dispatch implementation, verify tasks, and review waves    |
| `gsd-path-ship`     | Run final review, archive, and integrate                   |

## Supporting skills

| Skill                 | Purpose                                                    |
| --------------------- | ---------------------------------------------------------- |
| `gsd-path-discuss`    | Record questions and decisions during a non-shipped phase  |
| `gsd-path-docs-audit` | Check documentation claims against the code                |
| `gsd-path-loop`       | Run a bounded check and fix loop from a `LOOP.md` contract |
| `gsd-path-forensics`  | Diagnose a stuck pipeline without changing it              |
| `gsd-path-migrate`    | Import Core context and review hook coexistence            |
| `gsd-path-undo`       | Undo unpublished work through pipeline helpers             |

Discussion does not approve or advance phases. The loop runner does not
advance gates, commit, or push. See [recovery](/path/recovery) before attempting to
repair a blocked run.
