* feat(#1684): add negotiated host-integration interface module ADR-1239 Phase A: a pure, additive, no-I/O module exposing PROTOCOL_VERSION, the 8-axis HOST_INTEGRATION_AXES closed vocabulary, the UNDOCUMENTED fail-closed sentinel, negotiateHostCapabilities (effective subset of host-declared and engine-known), a typed degradation ladder, and host-capability profiles. Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.8 <noreply@anthropic.com> * feat(#1684): validate and document host-integration axes (16 runtimes) Extend validateRuntimeBody to validate the 8 hostIntegration axes (closed enums + undocumented sentinel + dispatch struct + reserved-key guards) and the widened runtime vocabulary; author a documentation-sourced hostIntegration block in all 16 runtime descriptors; regenerate the registry. Every per-CLI value is documented (cited) or the explicit undocumented sentinel. Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.8 <noreply@anthropic.com> * docs(#1684): add host-integration capability matrix and adr amendment New per-CLI, per-axis citation reference (value/source/evidence for all 16 CLIs); ADR-1239 Phase-A-implemented amendment; CONTEXT.md glossary seam entry. Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.8 <noreply@anthropic.com> * fix(#1684): harden dispatch negotiation edge cases Code-review hardening: treat NaN/Infinity maxDepth as missing (fail-closed, +warning); reset nested/background when namedDispatch collapses to false (struct consistency); SAFE_DEFAULTS dispatch floor to read-only; warn on non-finite protocolVersion; symmetric undocumented warnings for dispatch fields. Pure module — no consumers; behaviour fail-closed throughout. Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.8 <noreply@anthropic.com> * chore(#1684): register host-integration.cjs in lint-ignore and inventory New tsc-generated bin/lib artifact: add to the eslint ignore list (ADR-457 — lint the .cts source), regenerate docs/INVENTORY-MANIFEST.json, and add the docs/INVENTORY.md CLI-modules row. Fixes the 3 gsd-test failures (551-eslint-bin-lib-coverage x2 + inventory-manifest-sync). Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.8 <noreply@anthropic.com> * docs(#1684): add changeset fragment for host-integration interface Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.8 <noreply@anthropic.com> * docs(#1684): add how-to for sourcing a host's integration axes Diataxis how-to guide for adding/updating a host's runtime.hostIntegration axes from authoritative docs, the undocumented-sentinel rule, validation, and extending the closed vocabulary. Completes the Step-5 doc quadrants (reference + explanation + how-to). Indexed in docs/README.md.

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, 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, Gemini 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, Gemini 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 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.
