gsd-reapply-patches
<codex_skill_adapter>
A. Skill Invocation
- This skill is invoked by mentioning
$gsd-reapply-patches. - Treat all user text after
$gsd-reapply-patchesas{{GSD_ARGS}}. - If no arguments are present, treat
{{GSD_ARGS}}as empty.
B. AskUserQuestion → request_user_input Mapping
GSD workflows use AskUserQuestion (Claude Code syntax). Translate to Codex request_user_input:
Parameter mapping:
header→headerquestion→question- Options formatted as
"Label" — description→{label: "Label", description: "description"} - Generate
idfrom header: lowercase, replace spaces with underscores
Batched calls:
AskUserQuestion([q1, q2])→ singlerequest_user_inputwith multiple entries inquestions[]
Multi-select workaround:
- Codex has no
multiSelect. Use sequential single-selects, or present a numbered freeform list asking the user to enter comma-separated numbers.
Execute mode fallback:
- When
request_user_inputis rejected (Execute mode), present a plain-text numbered list and pick a reasonable default.
C. Task() → spawn_agent Mapping
GSD workflows use Task(...) (Claude Code syntax). Translate to Codex collaboration tools:
Direct mapping:
Task(subagent_type="X", prompt="Y")→spawn_agent(agent_type="X", message="Y")Task(model="...")→ omit (Codex uses per-role config, not inline model selection)fork_context: falseby default — GSD agents load their own context via<files_to_read>blocks
Parallel fan-out:
- Spawn multiple agents → collect agent IDs →
wait(ids)for all to complete
Result parsing:
- Look for structured markers in agent output:
CHECKPOINT,PLAN COMPLETE,SUMMARY, etc. close_agent(id)after collecting results from each agent </codex_skill_adapter>
Step 1: Detect backed-up patches
Check for local patches directory:
# Global install — detect runtime config directory
if [ -d "$HOME/.config/opencode/gsd-local-patches" ]; then
PATCHES_DIR="$HOME/.config/opencode/gsd-local-patches"
elif [ -d "$HOME/.opencode/gsd-local-patches" ]; then
PATCHES_DIR="$HOME/.opencode/gsd-local-patches"
elif [ -d "$HOME/.gemini/gsd-local-patches" ]; then
PATCHES_DIR="$HOME/.gemini/gsd-local-patches"
else
PATCHES_DIR="/mnt/local-analysis/workspace-hub/.codex/gsd-local-patches"
fi
# Local install fallback — check all runtime directories
if [ ! -d "$PATCHES_DIR" ]; then
for dir in .config/opencode .opencode .gemini .claude; do
if [ -d "./$dir/gsd-local-patches" ]; then
PATCHES_DIR="./$dir/gsd-local-patches"
break
fi
done
fi
Read backup-meta.json from the patches directory.
If no patches found:
No local patches found. Nothing to reapply.
Local patches are automatically saved when you run $gsd-update
after modifying any GSD workflow, command, or agent files.
Exit.
Step 2: Show patch summary
## Local Patches to Reapply
**Backed up from:** v{from_version}
**Current version:** {read VERSION file}
**Files modified:** {count}
| # | File | Status |
|---|------|--------|
| 1 | {file_path} | Pending |
| 2 | {file_path} | Pending |
Step 3: Merge each file
For each file in backup-meta.json:
-
Read the backed-up version (user's modified copy from
gsd-local-patches/) -
Read the newly installed version (current file after update)
-
Compare and merge:
- If the new file is identical to the backed-up file: skip (modification was incorporated upstream)
- If the new file differs: identify the user's modifications and apply them to the new version
Merge strategy:
- Read both versions fully
- Identify sections the user added or modified (look for additions, not just differences from path replacement)
- Apply user's additions/modifications to the new version
- If a section the user modified was also changed upstream: flag as conflict, show both versions, ask user which to keep
-
Write merged result to the installed location
-
Report status:
Merged— user modifications applied cleanlySkipped— modification already in upstreamConflict— user chose resolution
Step 4: Update manifest
After reapplying, regenerate the file manifest so future updates correctly detect these as user modifications:
# The manifest will be regenerated on next $gsd-update
# For now, just note which files were modified
Step 5: Cleanup option
Ask user:
- "Keep patch backups for reference?" → preserve
gsd-local-patches/ - "Clean up patch backups?" → remove
gsd-local-patches/directory
Step 6: Report
## Patches Reapplied
| # | File | Status |
|---|------|--------|
| 1 | {file_path} | ✓ Merged |
| 2 | {file_path} | ○ Skipped (already upstream) |
| 3 | {file_path} | ⚠ Conflict resolved |
{count} file(s) updated. Your local modifications are active again.
