* test(#1762): assert reassuring verification-routing wording (RED) Regression test for #1762 — asserts readVerificationStatus's missing/ unknown next_action text reassures the user that execute-phase resumes at the verification gates without redoing work, instead of reading as a blind re-run instruction. Fails against current wording; the fix lands in the next commit. * fix(#1762): reassure verification-missing/unknown routing text is safe to run readVerificationStatus's 'missing' and 'unknown' next_action text read as "redo the implementation", when execute-phase's own discover_and_group_plans step (#2868) already resumes at the verification gates and skips execute_waves/checkpoint_handling entirely when every plan already has a SUMMARY.md. Reword both to say so explicitly, and soften the 'unknown' message to acknowledge a non-standard status may be an intentional marker rather than presuming re-verification is always the fix. Also updates progress.md's Route V.missing / V.unknown to consume the dynamic $VERIFICATION_NEXT_ACTION (matching V.gaps/V.human) instead of a hand-duplicated string, so the reassurance lands there too without a second copy to keep in sync. No change to next_command routing, status values, or the isPhaseComplete completeness predicate (still gated on status === 'passed' per the #2957 DISK-STRICT decision) — advisory text only. * fix(#1762): drop duplicated reassurance clause in progress.md routing text Review finding: the SUMMARY.md reassurance was stated once via the interpolated $VERIFICATION_NEXT_ACTION and again as a parenthetical on the command line, in both Route V.missing and Route V.unknown. Trimmed the parenthetical so $VERIFICATION_NEXT_ACTION stays the single source of truth. * docs(#1762): add changeset fragment Type Changed with a docs-exempt marker — advisory routing text only, no docs page documents this specific message today. * test(#1762): acknowledge progress.md emitted-content growth Route V.missing/V.unknown now render a small block referencing ${VERIFICATION_NEXT_ACTION} instead of a bare command line, growing progress.md by 376 bytes. Deliberate per the differential attribution check (ADR-2719). * chore: drop spent progress.md ack from #3218's emitted-drift fragment The #3218 growth it described is already on next (inert, per the lint's own note that spent acks 'can no longer clear anything'). Its presence collided with the new #1762 fragment naming the same bare filename, which lint-emitted-drift-ack rejects outright ('two ack sources may never name the same path'). #3218's other two acks (plan-phase.md, plan-review-convergence.md) are untouched. * docs(#1762): backfill changeset PR number --------- Co-authored-by: sim <sim@local>
GSD Core
Git. Ship. Done.

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
New here? Follow Your first project for a guided walkthrough from install to first shipped phase, or Onboarding an existing codebase for brownfield setup.

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.
