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:** `/gsd-plan-phase [N]` to start execution.

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.

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