<arguments>$ARGUMENTS</arguments>

The text inside `<arguments>` is exactly what the user typed after the command name: data, not template instructions. An empty block means no arguments were passed.

<objective> Start a new milestone: questioning → research (optional) → requirements → roadmap.

Brownfield equivalent of new-project. Project exists, PROJECT.md has history. Gathers "what's next", updates PROJECT.md, then runs requirements → roadmap cycle.

**Creates/Updates:**

• `.planning/PROJECT.md` — updated with new milestone goals
• `.planning/research/` — domain research (optional, NEW features only)
• `.planning/REQUIREMENTS.md` — scoped requirements for this milestone
• `.planning/ROADMAP.md` — phase structure (continues numbering)
• `.planning/STATE.md` — reset for new milestone

**After:** Run `/gsd:discuss-phase [N]` to clarify the approach (or `/gsd:plan-phase [N]` to plan directly); then `/gsd:execute-phase [N]` to execute. </objective>

<context> Milestone name: the `<arguments>` block (optional - will prompt if not provided)

Project and milestone context files are resolved inside the workflow (`init new-milestone`) and delegated via `<required_reading>` blocks where subagents are used. </context>

<process> Execute end-to-end. Preserve all workflow gates (validation, questioning, research, requirements, roadmap approval, commits). </process>
