Fold augment's runtime-literal conversion branches onto descriptor-driven
hostBehaviors and delete dead code:
- Site A (_applyRuntimeRewrites case 'augment'): the 4 ~/.augment dot-dir
regexes now derive from getDirName('augment') via escapeRegExp (byte-
identical; getDirName('augment')==='.augment') — no runtime literal.
- Site B (applyRuntimeContentRewritesForCommandsInPlace): the
`if (runtime==='augment')` markdown-converter branch now reads
runtime.hostBehaviors.commandBodyConverter and dispatches through a local
COMMAND_BODY_CONVERTERS map (degrade-closed on unknown/absent name).
- Deleted dead `claudeToAugmentTools` map (zero refs; orphaned by ADR-1508
single-sourcing) and the unreachable `else if (isAugment)` agent-conversion
branch (augment ∈ _DESCRIPTOR_AGENTS_RUNTIMES → gated out upstream).
- Incidental orphan cleanup (no-defer): removed the equally-unreachable
`else if (isTrae)` agent-conversion arm left behind by trae's already-merged
migration #2094 (trae ∈ _DESCRIPTOR_AGENTS_RUNTIMES, same upstream gate).
copilot/windsurf/codebuddy arms are removed by their own pending migrations.
UPGRADE 3 (transport:mcp): register the GSD companion MCP server in Augment's
settings.json under mcpServers.gsd (Augment hosts MCP in settings.json, not a
standalone file). mergeGsdMcpServerIntoSettings mutates the in-memory settings
object finishInstall already writes (gated on hostBehaviors.mcpCompanion===
'settings-json'); non-destructive + idempotent; symmetric uninstall removal.
settings.json is golden-excluded, so no golden change. UPGRADE 1 (named/
background dispatch) + UPGRADE 2 (settings-json hook bus, Claude dialect)
were already live in production — this adds tests exercising both.
Golden: byte-identical for all 16 runtimes (folds preserve regex behavior;
MCP lives in golden-excluded settings.json) — verified by a real double-install
tree diff. Tests: declarative-reference-augment (adapter/axes/fail-closed/
undocumented-sub-axes + source-grep guard scoped to conversion-logic branches)
+ augment-upgrades (dispatch negotiation, hook-bus live install, MCP add/
idempotent/preserve/uninstall). Matrix + connect-gsd-mcp-server + a stale
install-on-your-runtime hook-ownership claim corrected; changeset (Changed).

GSD Core
Git. Ship. Done.
English · Português · 简体中文 · 日本語 · 한국어
A light-weight meta-prompting, context engineering, and spec-driven development system for Claude Code, OpenCode, Antigravity CLI, Kimi CLI, Kilo, Codex, Copilot, Cursor, Windsurf, and more.
What is GSD Core
GSD Core is a context-engineering and spec-driven development framework that drives AI coding agents (Claude Code, Codex, Antigravity CLI, Kimi CLI, Copilot, Cursor, and more) through a disciplined phase loop. It solves context rot — the quality degradation that accumulates as an AI fills its context window — by running all heavy research, planning, and execution work in fresh-context subagents while keeping your main session lean.
How it works
Each milestone repeats the same five-step loop, one phase at a time:
- Discuss — capture implementation decisions before anything is planned
- Plan — research, decompose, and verify the plan fits a fresh context window
- Execute — run plans in parallel waves; each executor starts with a clean 200k-token context
- Verify — walk through what was built; diagnose and fix before declaring done
- Ship — create the PR, archive the phase, repeat for the next one
Quickstart
npx @opengsd/gsd-core@latest
The installer prompts for your runtime (Claude Code, OpenCode, Antigravity CLI, Kimi CLI, Kilo, Codex, Copilot, Cursor, Windsurf, and more) and whether to install globally or locally. The installer is required for cross-runtime compatibility — do not copy files from agents/ or commands/ directly.
On another runtime or without Node.js? See Install on your runtime.
Once installed, start a new project or onboard an existing repo:
/gsd-new-project # greenfield project
/gsd-onboard # existing codebase

Why it works
Most AI-coding setups fail at scale because context bloat silently degrades output quality, there is no shared memory between sessions, and nothing verifies that code actually works. GSD Core solves all three: heavy work runs in fresh subagents, structured artifacts like STATE.md and CONTEXT.md survive session boundaries, and the verify step walks through what was built and generates fix plans before a phase is declared done. See docs/explanation/context-engineering.md for the full reasoning.
