* chore(#3059): close the ESLint glob-coverage escape and guard it 62 tracked source files matched no `files:` glob in eslint.config.mjs, so ESLint skipped them entirely while `eslint .` still exited 0 — including all 26 files under hooks/, the enforcement machinery itself. Covers 56 of them (eslint-rules/, hooks/, bin/lib/, pi/, examples/, vscode/, the plugin shims, root *.mjs) and allowlists the 6 deliberate must-not-compile brand-typing fixtures with a recorded reason each. hooks/** is covered with n/no-process-exit deliberately off: a hook's whole contract is its exit code, several exits are load-bearing stdin-timeout guards where nothing else terminates the process, and ADR-0012/0174 scope the no-process-exit convention to the Command Routing Hub. bin/lib/ui-safety-gate.cjs is dual-mode, so it keeps the rule live and takes two targeted disables in its require.main===module tail instead. Adds scripts/lint-eslint-glob-coverage.cjs + a node:test drift guard so the class cannot regrow: allowlist entries require a non-empty reason, the list ratchets down only (a stale entry fails), and a tracked-count floor means a broken `git ls-files` fails rather than reporting clean. Closes #3059 * chore(#3059): apply review findings — correct the changeset count, add parser properties Isolated adversarial review, confirmed by rebuilding a byte-for-byte replica of the pre-change eslint.config.mjs: the changeset claimed 44 previously- unlinted files. The real figure is 56 (56 covered + 6 allowlisted = 62). That was user-facing CHANGELOG text and was wrong; corrected, along with three consequential figures in the design record. CLAUDE.md requires a fast-check property test for parsers and budget limits, and listTrackedSourceFiles is a parser. The standards review called this "satisfied in spirit"; it is not. Adds three properties driving the real exported parser through an injected execFile: extension totality/soundness including a trailing terminator, backslash-normalization totality, and CRLF/LF equivalence — the invariant the repo's recurring CRLF defect class breaks. Also de-duplicates the anchor rows onto one shared resolver, kept deliberately independent of the guard's own resolveFileCoverage so an anchor still fails if that resolution regresses, and records in the guard's header why the bin/install.js family is NOT allowlisted: it resolves to 2 rules under ADR-1703, so an entry would trip the allowlist_stale ratchet. * fix(#3059): make the coverage guard's git call container-safe The remote runner reported the guard degrading to `git_failed` on both Node lanes: fatal: detected dubious ownership in repository at '/work' The runner executes in a container where the repo is owned by a different UID, so git refuses to operate on it. The guard's degraded-verdict path worked exactly as designed — it reported the failure instead of throwing or falsely reporting clean — but a guard that cannot run in CI is not a gate. `git ls-files` is now invoked as `git -c safe.directory=* ls-files`. `-c` scopes the override to the single invocation and mutates no config file, and the wildcard is appropriate because this command only enumerates tracked paths in the repository it is already executing inside. Adds a regression test that captures the argv through the injected execFile seam and asserts `-c safe.directory=*` precedes `ls-files`, so the container case is pinned behaviorally rather than by reading the script's source. * chore(#3059): backfill changeset PR number pr:0 placeholder replaced with the real number now that #3277 exists. --------- Co-authored-by: sim <sim@local>
GSD Core documentation
Documentation is organised into four quadrants: tutorials help you learn by doing, how-to guides solve specific tasks, reference states authoritative facts, and explanation explores concepts and design decisions.
Language versions: English · Português (pt-BR) · 日本語 · 简体中文
Tutorials
- Your first project — install to first shipped phase, one guaranteed path
- Onboarding an existing codebase — bring GSD Core to a brownfield repo
- Build your first capability — author a tiny declarative capability and watch it act in the loop
- Install your first capability — install a third-party capability end-to-end: consent, verify, check for updates, remove
How-to guides
- Install on your runtime — runtime-specific install steps for all 16 supported runtimes
- Install a minimal GSD and add skills later — install only the core skills, then grow the surface with profiles and
/gsd-surface - Attach a plugin-provided skill to a GSD agent — use the
global:plugin:skillentry form to load Claude Code plugin skills into agent prompts - Discuss a phase — capture implementation decisions before planning begins
- Resolve edge-coverage findings — turn the spec phase's surfaced domain-boundary edges into covered, dismissed, or backstopped spec decisions
- Resolve prohibition findings — turn the spec phase's surfaced must-NOT constraints into resolved, dismissed, or deferred spec decisions
- Resolve an ESLint glob-coverage finding — bring a source file that matches no lint rule under coverage, or record a reasoned exemption
- Plan a phase — run research, decompose work, and verify plan quality
- Execute a phase — run plans in parallel waves with fresh-context subagents
- Verify and ship — walk through completed work, diagnose failures, and create the PR
- Run phases autonomously — use autonomous mode for unattended phase execution
- Handle quick and fast tasks — use
/gsd-quickand/gsd-fastfor ad-hoc work outside the phase loop - Configure model profiles — switch between quality, balanced, and budget model tiers
- Set up cross-AI review — configure a second AI to review code produced by the primary agent
- Work in parallel with workstreams — run independent lines of work simultaneously using workstreams
- Isolate work with workspaces — use workspaces to sandbox experimental or risky changes
- Debug a failed execution — diagnose and recover from broken or incomplete phase execution
- Interpret scope-conformance warnings — read the advisory the worktree-wave merge emits when a plan branch commits outside its declared scope
- Spike and sketch — use
/gsd-spikeand/gsd-sketchfor exploratory work before committing to a plan - Design a UI phase — use the UI phase loop for frontend and visual work
- Develop a Capability for GSD 1.5+ — add feature Capabilities, hook fragments, and registry entries
- Ship a reviewer lane in your capability — declare a
reviewerbody so/gsd-reviewdiscovers, invokes, and renders your external review CLI or model endpoint - List your reviewer lane in the registry — publish a lane you have built to the Reviewer Lane Registry so other people can find and install it
- Take over a capability or EoS integration — assume maintainership of an existing third-party capability, reviewer lane, or EoS host integration through a handoff, an adoption fork, first-party absorption, or a de-listing
- Add or update a host's integration — set a host's documentation-sourced
runtime.hostIntegrationaxes (ADR-1239 Phase A), with theundocumentedsentinel rule - Turn a capability off (and keep it off) — disable a capability via the surface, or gate individual hooks off without removing the capability
- Drive GSD from a tracker issue — start a phase from a GitHub, Linear, or Jira issue
- Migrate from GSD 2 — upgrade an existing GSD 2 project to GSD Core
- Update GSD — re-run the installer to pick up the latest release
- Clean up get-shit-done-cc — remove leftover old-package artifacts that cause a spurious
⬆ /gsd-updateindicator after migrating to@opengsd/gsd-core - Fix the worktree base-mismatch (exit 42) error — resolve the branch-divergence condition that halts parallel phase execution
- Recover and troubleshoot — fix common problems, rebuild context, and uninstall

Explanation
- Context engineering — how context rot forms and how GSD Core prevents it
- The phase loop — design rationale for the Discuss → Plan → Execute → Verify → Ship cycle
- Multi-agent orchestration — how subagents are spawned, scoped, and coordinated
- Security model — trust boundaries, permissions, and safe automation
- The capability trust model — why third-party capabilities are gated by consent + integrity + reversibility, not a sandbox
- How overlay capabilities compose — why first-party always wins and how the loader resolves precedence, conflicts, and fail-open load-failure warnings
- Architecture — system architecture, agent model, and data flow
- The Embeddable Orchestration System — one public, versioned contract for embedding GSD across many hosts
- Discuss modes — assumptions mode vs interview mode for
/gsd-discuss-phase - Context monitoring — context window monitoring hook architecture
- Issue-driven orchestration — recipe for driving GSD from a tracker issue using existing primitives
