* fix(#690): promote CHANGELOG 1.3.x + gate release-notes promotion /gsd:update showed an empty "What's New" preview after updating to 1.3.1 because CHANGELOG.md's 1.3.x content was never promoted out of [Unreleased] into dated sections, so `scripts/changeset/cli.cjs extract` returned exit 2 ("no releases in range"). - CHANGELOG.md: split [Unreleased] into dated [1.3.0] and [1.3.1] sections (1.3.1 = hono advisory bump + installer-migration checksum self-heal, #670; 1.3.0 = the feature release), restoring an empty [Unreleased]. - scripts/changeset/cli.cjs: new `verify` subcommand that exits non-zero when CHANGELOG has no dated `## [x.y.z]` heading for a version; hoist shared stripV/resolveChangelogPath helpers used by extract + verify. - .github/workflows/release.yml: gate the finalize job on `verify` (after the build, before tag/publish) so an unpromoted CHANGELOG can never ship again. - gsd-core/workflows/update.md: move `rm -f $CHANGELOG_TMP` after the human-readable extract re-run so the preview no longer degrades to "(changelog unavailable)". - tests: regression guard for the 1.3.x headings + extract range + verify command coverage (present/absent/undated/v-prefixed/--json/prerelease).

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, Gemini 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, Gemini 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, Gemini 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 your first project:
/gsd-new-project

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.
