GSD Shipped Surface Inventory

Authoritative roster of every shipped GSD surface: commands, agents, workflows, references, CLI modules, and hooks. Where the broad docs (AGENTS.md, COMMANDS.md, ARCHITECTURE.md, CLI-TOOLS.md) diverge from the filesystem, treat this file and the repository tree itself as the source of truth.

How To Use This File

• The machine-readable roster lives in docs/INVENTORY-MANIFEST.json (regenerated by scripts/gen-inventory-manifest.cjs --write). For live counts, run ls agents/gsd-*.md | wc -l etc. against the checkout.
• This file enumerates every shipped surface across all six families (agents, commands, workflows, references, CLI modules, hooks). Broad docs may render narrative or curated subsets; when they disagree with the filesystem, this file and the directory listings are authoritative.
• New surfaces should land here first, then propagate to the broad docs. The drift-control tests in tests/inventory-manifest-sync.test.cjs, tests/commands-doc-parity.test.cjs, tests/agents-doc-parity.test.cjs, tests/cli-modules-doc-parity.test.cjs, tests/hooks-doc-parity.test.cjs, and tests/command-count-sync.test.cjs anchor the roster contents against the filesystem.

This is the authoritative roster of every shipped GSD Core surface. See the docs index to navigate by topic.

Agents

Full roster at agents/gsd-*.md. The "Primary doc" column flags whether docs/AGENTS.md carries a full role card (primary), a short stub in the "Advanced and Specialized Agents" section (advanced stub), or no coverage (inventory only).

Commands

Full roster at commands/gsd/*.md. The groupings below mirror docs/COMMANDS.md section order; each row carries the command name, a one-line role derived from the command's frontmatter description:, and a link to the source file. tests/command-count-sync.test.cjs locks the count against the filesystem.

Namespace Meta-Skills

These six routers are descriptor-only entries that the model picks first; the body of each contains a routing table that points at the correct concrete sub-skill. They exist to keep the eager skill-listing token cost low while the full surface remains reachable. See #2792 for the rationale; the routing tables target the post-#2790 consolidated surface.

Maintenance

• When a new command, agent, workflow, reference, CLI module, or hook ships, update the corresponding section here before the release is cut.
• The drift-guard tests under tests/ (see "How To Use This File" above) assert that every shipped file is enumerated in this inventory. A new file without a matching row here will fail CI.
• When the filesystem diverges from docs/ARCHITECTURE.md counts or from curated-subset docs (e.g. docs/AGENTS.md's primary roster), this file is the source of truth.
