* docs(#2904): how-to for listing a reviewer lane in the registry #2912 shipped the Reviewer Lane Registry, which lands in 1.9.1. Two docs consequences. New: docs/how-to/list-your-reviewer-lane.md. A Diataxis how-to for the publish task -- which of the three catalogs applies (and why a runtime carrying a reviewer body lists under its primary install shape instead), opening the required discussion thread BEFORE the PR, the three fields that reject entries most often (slug grammar differs from id, flags stay kebab when the slug is snake, install/uninstall must be copy-pasteable), regenerate-don't-hand-edit, and register-once-then-Releases. Links the registry README for the field table rather than duplicating it -- the spec is reference, this is the task flow. Corrected: ship-a-reviewer-lane.md said "Listing your lane is not wired yet" and pointed at #2904 as future work. #2906 merged at 11:25Z and #2912 at 12:11Z, so that section shipped false the moment the registry landed. Replaced with the publish pointer. Indexed the new guide and the generated catalog in docs/README.md, and added the guide to develop-a-capability.md's ecosystem list. Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 5 (1M context) <noreply@anthropic.com> * docs(#2904): caveat credential-bearing configKeys in both the guide and the spec Isolated security review found the worked entry's `configKeys: ["acme.api_key"]` modelled storing a live credential with no note on where that value ends up. Verified: config values are written in plaintext to .planning/config.json (docs/CONFIGURATION.md:227 -- masking is display-only, "that file is the security boundary"), and planning.commit_docs defaults to true (:466). So a credential declared that way lands in the installing user's git repository unless they have gitignored .planning/. None of the twelve first-party lanes does this -- they own only review.models.*, host, and prompt-budget keys. The pattern originates in docs/registries/README.md:221, shipped by #2912, so the caveat goes on BOTH surfaces rather than only on the copy that inherited it -- the spec's example is what future authors will read first.

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.
