sim 5504724d7a fix(#4012): the reporter body must return nully, not an iterable
Fourth failure on this feature, and this one was caused by the previous fix's
lint workaround.

  TypeError [ERR_INVALID_RETURN_VALUE]: Expected nully to be returned from the
  "body" function but got an instance of Array.

When stream.compose is given an async FUNCTION as the body, that function must
return nully. The reporter ended with 'return []' under a comment asserting
Node "still requires the exported function to return an iterable" — exactly
backwards, and the direct cause of 41 failures across every run-tests.cjs
invocation.

That return existed only to dodge ESLint's require-yield after the previous
commit converted async function* to async function. A lint workaround became a
runtime crash, and the comment written to justify it stated the opposite of the
contract. Both are now corrected to what the runtime actually does.

Verified by EXECUTION rather than by reading: composing the real reporter
against a fake event stream completes with no error and leaves both handled
events durably on disk, with the ignored event type skipped. The failing form
was reproduced the same way first, so the diagnosis is not inferred from the
stack trace alone.

The new unit test requires the reporter directly and asserts the returned value
is nully — the assertion that would have caught this before it reached the
runner — plus the exact NDJSON written. No subprocess, so this half of the
feature is verifiable without a full runner pass, which matters because every
defect in this feature so far has only been observable remotely.

T1 remains untouched and red.

Verification runs on the remote runner.

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:

  1. Discuss — capture implementation decisions before anything is planned
  2. Plan — research, decompose, and verify the plan fits a fresh context window
  3. Execute — run plans in parallel waves; each executor starts with a clean 200k-token context
  4. Verify — walk through what was built; diagnose and fix before declaring done
  5. 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.
