* fix(3620): point the docs at files that actually exist docproof found 34 stale references; the reporter hand-read all 34 and reported the 8 that are real, explaining why the other 26 are deliberate (files the documents themselves label legacy or "superseded by", and one pre-Diataxis link label whose target still resolves). Those 26 are left alone — re-touching them would contradict the issue's own analysis. Every claim was re-verified against git ls-files at HEAD before editing. docs/INVENTORY.md said its roster is anchored by six drift-control tests. Five are gone (commands-doc-parity, agents-doc-parity, cli-modules-doc-parity, hooks-doc-parity in 5d8a8c4d; command-count-sync infbf30792), so the sentence now names the one that exists. Whether one test is sufficient coverage is a maintainer question the issue explicitly declined to answer, so no new drift tests are proposed here. The four translations were a revision further behind, each naming a seventh test deleted inae8bb707that the English file had already dropped. All four now match. Renamed targets corrected in CONTEXT.md, VERSIONING.md, docs/CONFIGURATION.md and the update workflow. The new test names carry no issue-NNN- prefix, which is what lint-regression-test-names requires, so they are the correct targets. docs/TESTING-SUITES.md is the one that could cost somebody time: it INSTRUCTED contributors to add an acknowledgment to the legacy drift-ack file, which CONTRIBUTING.md says to never use. Rewritten from the real workflow — per-PR fragments under the drift-acks directory, and a spent base-side ack is re-armed by rewording that fragment's reason in place, never by adding a duplicate, since two sources naming one path is a hard error. docs/skills/discovery-contract.md's heading named a query module deleted in11918dcc. The section was REMOVED rather than retargeted: its documented behavior (skip the deprecated root) is not what the surviving code does — skill-manifest includes that root marked deprecated:true — so retargeting would have documented something false. Found and fixed inline, same class: VERSIONING.md described an SDK bundling step the release workflow does not have (zero such mentions in that file); CONFIGURATION.md and four translations named a dead model-catalog triple collapsed by ADR-457. Dead config removed: the changeset lint's user-facing prefix list still carried two retired sdk entries. git ls-files -- 'sdk/*' returns nothing. No test pins that array. Left deliberately: the comment explaining the retired catalog path, the install regression test that reconstructs the old broken layout to prove it fails, and the generated test-timings cache. Each is a legitimate mention of a dead path, not drift. Note lint-removed-but-needed cannot catch this class: it diffs baseRef...HEAD, so it only sees files deleted in the change under review. These were orphaned by PRs that predate the lint. A repo-wide existence audit would need a suppression mechanism for the 26 deliberate mentions above; that is a feature, not part of this fix.

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.
