How this skill gets triggered: by you, by Claude, or both.
- Fires itselfAuto-invocation. Claude auto-loads it when your prompt matches the work.Auto-invocation is when the right skill fires by itself at the right moment, driven by a FLOW.md router and a hook, instead of you invoking it by name. It is the difference between a skill being installed and a skill actually getting used.Read the full definition →

allowed-tools:
- Read

<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>`
- `--strategy` — `worktree` (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>
