model_overrides / models.<phaseType> were silently inert for gsd-assumptions-analyzer,
gsd-code-reviewer, and gsd-code-fixer on Claude Code: resolveModelInternal honors them,
but the workflows spawned these agents with no model= param, so the resolved value
never reached the Agent tool and the agents inherited the session model — no warning.
Fix — thread each agent's resolved model at every spawn site (the established
plan-phase pattern; the architecture-consistent Claude mechanism, since 13 other
agents already thread their model):
- discuss-phase-assumptions.md: `resolve-model gsd-assumptions-analyzer --raw`
→ ANALYZER_MODEL, threaded.
- code-review.md + code-review-fix.md (re-review): `resolve-model gsd-code-reviewer --raw`
→ REVIEWER_MODEL, threaded.
- code-review-fix.md (both fixer spawns): `resolve-model gsd-code-fixer --raw`
→ FIXER_MODEL, threaded (same silently-inert bug, same file — folded in per review).
- quick.md review step: was reusing `{executor_model}` for gsd-code-reviewer (so the
reviewer's own override was ignored); init.quick now resolves `reviewer_model`
(gsd-code-reviewer) and the spawn threads it.
resolve-model --raw returns the bare model string (resolve-execution --raw would
return effort — wrong). The resolver maps these agents to phaseType discuss /
verification / execution, so models.<phaseType> apply too.
Scope: the three agents reachable from the two issue-named workflows + quick.md. The
wider systemic class (other agents in UNTOUCHED workflows with the same pattern) stays
documented on the issue for a maintainer-scoped structural decision (thread-at-source
vs embed-at-install like #2256), not widened here.
Docs: the stale "discuss — reserved, no subagent today" model-profile tables now list
gsd-assumptions-analyzer and the verification row includes gsd-code-reviewer, across
the English docs, the shipped gsd-core/references/model-profiles.md reference, and the
ja-JP / zh-CN / ko-KR / pt-BR locale mirrors.
Tests:
- tests/model-resolver.test.cjs: #2072 acceptance — model_overrides and
models.discuss/verification/execution resolve for all three agents.
- tests/model-routing-spawn-threading.test.cjs: every spawn of the three agents threads
a resolved model (fails pre-fix); a header-precise parity guard fails the suite if a
new un-threaded spawn of any of them regresses.
All 16 golden-install-parity fixtures + the workflow size baseline regenerated for the
changed shipped files (4 workflows + the reference doc); bin/lib is excluded from parity.

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.
