Gsd Quick Batch

<objective>
Batch several `/gsd-quick`-shaped tasks together: one coordinator parses the
task list, dispatches per-item planner/researcher/checker/executor/verifier
leaves, and owns every shared write (`BATCH.json`, STATE.md, worktree
create/merge/cleanup) so leaves never race each other (ADR-1239 "Quick-batch
binding").

Task list: either an inline bulleted/numbered list (≥2 items — the same grammar /gsd-quick's planner-facing description uses, one item per line) or --file <path> pointing at a file containing one.

--jobs auto|N flag: auto (default) uses the negotiated dispatch capacity as-is. N caps effective concurrency at min(task count, N, capacity). A non-numeric or non-positive N is rejected before any dispatch.

--validate flag: enables the per-item plan-checker loop (max 2 iterations) and post-merge verification.

--research flag: dispatches a focused researcher per item before planning.

--resume <batch-id> flag: skips task-list parsing and batch creation entirely — loads the existing batch and dispatches only its still-eligible items.

Not supported in v1: --discuss and --full are rejected with a usage error before any dispatch. Use /gsd-quick --discuss/--full per item instead, or file the tasks individually. </objective>

$ARGUMENTS

Context files are resolved inside the workflow (init quick-batch, quick-batch create/quick-batch resume) and delegated via <required_reading> blocks. </context>

<process>

Parse $ARGUMENTS FIRST, before any dispatch. Route argument validation through the CLI's own quick-batch parse-args verb — it wraps parseQuickBatchArgs (src/quick-batch-dispatch.cts), the single source of truth for this grammar, so the command layer and the workflow layer can never silently diverge on what counts as a valid invocation. $ARGUMENTS is raw, attacker-influenced task text — pass it as ONE quoted argument via --text so the shell never word-splits or glob-expands it before the parser sees it:

QUICK_BATCH_PARSE=$(gsd_run quick-batch parse-args --raw --text "$ARGUMENTS")
QUICK_BATCH_PARSE_RC=$?

(gsd_run is defined by the workflow's own preamble — this parse happens INSIDE the workflow's Step 1, not before it; the shim is not yet in scope at this point in the command file. See gsd-core/workflows/quick-batch.md Step 1 for the literal invocation.)

If the parse fails ($QUICK_BATCH_PARSE_RC != 0, e.g. --discuss/ --full present, or a malformed --jobs value): print the CLI's error message verbatim and STOP. Do not create BATCH.json, do not dispatch anything.

If --resume <batch-id> is present: proceed straight to the workflow's resume path — it loads the batch via quick-batch resume and dispatches only eligible items. Task-list parsing is skipped entirely.
