* test(#443): RED unified effort + fast_mode + resolve-execution All 68 tests failing as expected — no implementation yet. Covers: effort cascade (tier defaults, overrides, invalid fallthrough), fast_mode cascade (boolean-only, tier defaults), resolveEffortForTier escalation, renderEffortForRuntime clamping, resolve-execution CLI, config schema new keys, QA hostile-input matrix. Co-Authored-By: Claude Sonnet 4.6 <noreply@anthropic.com> * feat(#443): unified cross-provider effort + fast_mode knobs and resolve-execution query Adds config-driven effort control (universal ladder: minimal<low<medium<high<xhigh<max) and fast_mode propagation knobs, with per-runtime rendering that clamps the unique tail values (max=Anthropic-only clamps to xhigh on Codex; minimal=Codex-only clamps to low on Claude). Key changes: - config-schema.manifest.json: add effort.default, fast_mode.enabled as validKeys; add 4 dynamicKeyPatterns for effort.routing_tier_defaults, effort.agent_overrides, fast_mode.routing_tier_defaults, fast_mode.agent_overrides; fix stale _comment - config-defaults.manifest.json: add effort and fast_mode blocks with tier defaults - model-catalog.cjs: add EFFORT_RENDERING map, renderEffortForRuntime(), RUNTIMES_WITH_FAST_MODE - model-profiles.cjs: re-export new catalog exports - core.cjs: add resolveEffortInternal, resolveFastModeInternal, resolveEffortForTier, VALID_EFFORTS, EFFORT_SET, nextEffort; pass effort/fast_mode through loadConfig - commands.cjs: replace reasoning_effort in cmdResolveModel with unified effort; add cmdResolveExecution (superset command with effort_rendered, effort_param, effort_propagation, fast_mode, fast_mode_supported) - gsd-tools.cjs: add resolve-execution case with --effort/--fast-mode/--attempt flags - tests/feat-443: 69 tests covering cascade, rendering, escalation, CLI, schema, QA matrix - tests/commands.test.cjs: convert 3 reasoning_effort assertions to unified effort - docs/CONFIGURATION.md: document effort + fast_mode + resolve-execution sections - settings-advanced.md: list new effort/fast_mode keys in confirmation table Co-Authored-By: Claude Sonnet 4.6 <noreply@anthropic.com> * refactor(#443): remove dead catalog effort lane; unify codex effort through renderEffortForRuntime - Remove resolveReasoningEffortInternal (catalog-driven effort function) from core.cjs and its export; remove from commands.cjs destructure import - Convert tests/issue-2517-runtime-aware-profiles.test.cjs: all 11 effort assertions now use resolveEffortInternal + renderEffortForRuntime; Claude effort is first-class (output_config.effort); unknown runtimes assert param===null - Convert tests/feat-3023-model-phase-types.test.cjs: replace the entire resolveReasoningEffortInternal describe with unified effort assertions; effort derives from AGENT_DEFAULT_TIERS routing tier, not phase-type tier Co-Authored-By: Claude Sonnet 4.6 <noreply@anthropic.com> * docs(#443): ADR for unified cross-provider effort + fast-mode routing Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.7 <noreply@anthropic.com> * test(#443): architecture-level QA invariants + test-strategy doc Add 48-test integration suite (feat-443-effort-fast-mode.integration.test.cjs) covering 8 architectural invariants: cross-provider validity (never emit a value the real API would 400 on), param/channel contract stability, resolve-execution JSON contract (all 8 keys + correct types), totality across the full 33-agent registry, fast-mode honesty (claude always fast_mode_supported=false), precedence first-valid-wins matrix for both effort and fast_mode cascades, dynamic-routing composition (effort escalation independent of model tier), and config-set round-trip for all new effort/* and fast_mode/* key namespaces. Append test-strategy section with invariant rationale and E2E gap documentation to docs/TESTING-SUITES.md. Co-Authored-By: Claude Sonnet 4.6 <noreply@anthropic.com> * test(#443): add failing install-wiring tests for effort per-runtime injection (RED) TDD RED: 10 failing tests covering: - Claude .md gets effort: injected per tier (planner=xhigh, mapper=low, executor=high) - Gemini .md does NOT get effort: (already passing — Gemini-safe) - Codex .toml gets model_reasoning_effort via unified resolver - Config-driven: effort.agent_overrides drives both Claude .md and Codex .toml - Source purity: agents/*.md have no effort: key (already passing) Co-Authored-By: Claude Sonnet 4.6 <noreply@anthropic.com> * feat(#443): wire effort per-runtime at install (Claude .md frontmatter + Codex .toml unified) - Import AGENT_DEFAULT_TIERS and renderEffortForRuntime from model-catalog.cjs - Add readGsdEffectiveEffortConfig(targetDir): reads merged effort config from .planning/config.json (per-project wins) + ~/.gsd/defaults.json (global fallback), same probe pattern as readGsdRuntimeProfileResolver - Add resolveInstallTimeEffort(effortCfg, agentName): pure function matching resolveEffortInternal() precedence (agent_overrides > routing_tier_defaults > default > 'high') without loadConfig side-effects (no sub-repo detection, no migration writes) - Claude agent copy loop: inject `effort: <value>` into frontmatter ONLY for runtime === 'claude'; all other .md runtimes (Gemini, Qwen, Hermes, etc.) stay effort-free (Gemini-safe source contract preserved in agents/*.md) - generateCodexAgentToml: add effortCfg param; emit model_reasoning_effort from unified resolver (replaces old catalog entry.reasoning_effort); Codex clamps max → xhigh via renderEffortForRuntime('codex', ...) - installCodexConfig: pass readGsdEffectiveEffortConfig(targetDir) to generateCodexAgentToml so per-project config wins for Codex .toml too - Update failing tests to GREEN: 12/12 pass; all 17 install tests pass; 2847/2848 unit tests pass (1 pre-existing failure: policy-shell-pinning) Co-Authored-By: Claude Sonnet 4.6 <noreply@anthropic.com> * refactor(#443): source install effort defaults from manifest (kill drift) + guard test Replace hardcoded _GSD_EFFORT_MANIFEST_TIER_DEFAULTS and the 'high' fallback in resolveInstallTimeEffort with values read from config-defaults.manifest.json at module init, using the same __dirname-relative path install.js already uses for all shared manifests. Add feat-443-effort-defaults-drift.test.cjs to assert equality between install.js's runtime constants and the manifest on every CI run. Co-Authored-By: Claude Sonnet 4.6 <noreply@anthropic.com> * fix(#443): reconcile Codex TOML tests with unified effort design The #443 unified effort resolver makes generateCodexAgentToml always emit model_reasoning_effort (driven by resolveInstallTimeEffort, not model_profile_overrides). The test 'generated TOML omits reasoning_effort when runtime has none' had an obsolete premise — model_profile_overrides.reasoning_effort:'' no longer suppresses unified effort. Convert it to assert the new invariant: Codex TOML always carries a valid model_reasoning_effort from the agent's routing tier (xhigh for gsd-planner, a heavy-tier agent), while model_profile_overrides model override is still respected. Co-Authored-By: Claude Sonnet 4.6 <noreply@anthropic.com> * fix(#443): make install.js effort resolution lazy (no load-time side effects breaking launcher-parity) Replace module-load-time IIFE + hard throw (config-defaults.manifest.json read) and top-level require of model-catalog.cjs with a lazy _getGsdEffortCatalog() getter that initialises on first call from resolveInstallTimeEffort / generateCodexAgentToml / Claude .md effort injection. Requiring install.js in unrelated test contexts (e.g. runtime-launcher-parity) no longer triggers manifest IO or throws, eliminating the load-time side effect that changed subprocess exit codes / stderr on the bench. Drift-guard exports (_GSD_EFFORT_MANIFEST_TIER_DEFAULTS / _GSD_EFFORT_MANIFEST_DEFAULT) preserved as lazy getter properties on module.exports so feat-443-effort-defaults-drift still validates them without forcing eager load. Co-Authored-By: Claude Sonnet 4.6 <noreply@anthropic.com> * fix(#443): isolate install-wiring test HOME to stop \$HOME/.claude pollution breaking launcher-parity runGlobalInstall() now redirects HOME to a per-call isolated tmpdir in addition to the existing runtime-specific env-var redirects (CLAUDE_CONFIG_DIR, GEMINI_CONFIG_DIR, CODEX_HOME). This ensures install.js code that uses os.homedir() directly — including the ~/.cache/gsd update-check deletion, ~/.gsd/defaults.json reads, and any HOME-relative npm subprocess writes — never touches the real \$HOME during the test. Without the HOME isolation the install test (which is new to this branch and is now picked up by Docker's raw \`tests/*.test.cjs\` glob) could write or delete files under the real \$HOME, causing runtime-launcher-parity test (D) to fail: (D) asserts a loud non-zero exit when \$RUNTIME_DIR/gsd-tools.cjs is absent and gsd-tools is not on PATH, but the launcher's \$HOME/.claude fallback arm succeeds if \$HOME/.claude/get-shit-done/bin/gsd-tools.cjs exists. Also sets GSD_SKIP_STALE_SDK_CHECK=1 to suppress the \`npm ls -g\` subprocess that the global installer spawns — irrelevant to effort-wiring assertions, slow, and potentially writes to ~/.npm cache. All 12 feat-443 install-wiring assertions preserved. Drift-guard 5/5. Unit suite 2848/2850 (pre-existing policy-shell-pinning.test.cjs failure on next). Co-Authored-By: Claude Sonnet 4.6 <noreply@anthropic.com> * chore(#443): add changeset fragment for effort + fast-mode routing Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.7 <noreply@anthropic.com> * fix(#443): set GSD_TEST_MODE before requiring install.js in drift-guard test to prevent HOME leak Without GSD_TEST_MODE=1, require('bin/install.js') runs the module's main install block (guarded by !GSD_TEST_MODE), performing a real global Claude install into $HOME/.claude/. On CI ubuntu where node is on standard PATH, the launcher's $HOME/.claude fallback arm then finds gsd-tools.cjs, causing runtime-launcher-parity test (D) to exit zero when it must exit non-zero. Root cause: feat-443-effort-defaults-drift.test.cjs (unit suite) runs alphabetically before runtime-launcher-parity.test.cjs in the same node --test invocation. Each runs in a separate worker process but shares the same HOME. The drift test's install leaks gsd-tools.cjs into that HOME, then the launcher test's bash subprocess finds it via the $HOME/.claude arm. Fix: add process.env.GSD_TEST_MODE = '1' at the top of the drift-guard test, before the require(installPath) call. This matches the pattern used by feat-443-effort-fast-mode.test.cjs and feat-443-effort-install-wiring .install.test.cjs. Co-Authored-By: Claude Sonnet 4.6 <noreply@anthropic.com> * fix(#443): deterministic resolve-execution arg parsing + validate install-time effort (Codex adversarial findings) Finding 1: resolve-execution --effort low gsd-planner misrouted 'low' as the agent. Replace find(non-dash) with a proper flag-consuming loop that collects a single positional; validate missing/extra positionals and malformed --attempt values. Finding 2: resolveInstallTimeEffort returned unvalidated effort strings (e.g. "ultra") verbatim. Each precedence layer now checks GSD_EFFORT_SET (imported once from core.cjs) before accepting a value, mirroring resolveEffortInternal exactly. Co-Authored-By: Claude Sonnet 4.6 <noreply@anthropic.com> * fix(#443): newline-agnostic effort frontmatter injection (Windows CRLF) + CRLF-safe assertions Extracts injectEffortFrontmatter(content, effortValue) pure helper that detects EOL (LF vs CRLF) from the opening '---' line and inserts 'effort: <value>' before the closing '---' delimiter using the same EOL as the surrounding frontmatter. Regex now uses /^---\r?\n([\s\S]*?)^---\r?$/m instead of the LF-only /^(---\n[\s\S]*?)(---)(\n|$)/ that silently skipped CRLF files on Windows (git core.autocrlf=true checkout). Also adds 7 unit tests covering LF, CRLF, idempotency, no-frontmatter, and complex frontmatter cases. Exports injectEffortFrontmatter from module.exports. Fixes 6 CI failures in tests/feat-443-effort-install-wiring.install.test.cjs on windows-latest runners (lines 138, 145, 152, 261, 345, 356).

Architecture Decision Records
This directory contains Architecture Decision Records (ADRs) for GSD.
Each ADR documents one architectural decision: what was decided, why, and what consequences follow. ADRs are append-only. Amendments extend existing ADRs with a dated section rather than replacing them.
Naming Convention
New ADRs use issue#-prefix slug naming:
docs/adr/<issue#>-<kebab-slug>.md
Examples: 3485-adr-prd-naming-convention.md, 3464-review-default-reviewers.md.
Why
Two developers computing "next ADR number" locally against main will independently pick the same integer and both ship. The collision is already on disk — 0010-* exists twice and 0011-* exists three times. GitHub issue numbers are server-assigned and atomic: the moment you open an issue, that number is reserved globally. Two PRs that both edit the ### Fixed block of CHANGELOG.md always conflict on merge — two PRs that each use a distinct issue# as their ADR prefix never collide. Same shape, same solution.
Legacy ADRs
Files 0001-* through 0011-* are preserved as immutable historical record. The duplicate 0010-* and the three-way 0011-* are documented residue of the old local-compute convention — not patterns to imitate. Do not renumber them.
Full process
See CONTRIBUTING.md — "Proposing an ADR or PRD" for the end-to-end workflow: opening the issue, waiting for approval, naming the file, and submitting the PR.

Seam map
ADR 0005 is the top-level SDK seam index. It references per-seam ADRs and states the narrow-waist principle each seam follows. Use it as the entry point for understanding SDK module ownership.
ADR 0006 documents how SDK query handlers project planning paths (cwd → effectiveRoot → .planning/<project>/...). Cross-reference with the Planning Workspace Module (ADR 0004) for workstream pointer policy.
ADR 0008 documents the Installer Migration Module for safe install-time moves, removals, config rewrites, and user-data preservation.
ADR 0009 documents the Shell Command Projection Module seam for runtime-aware projection of installer-owned command text and projection IR.
ADR 0010 documents the File Operation Engine Module seam for converging installer/migration/planning file mutation safety policy, and its relationship to ADR 0009 hook-command ownership policy.
ADR 0011 documents the Skill Surface Budget Module for install-time skill/agent
profile staging (--profile=<name>, .gsd-profile marker, requires: closure)
and the Phase 2 runtime /gsd:surface command for cluster-level enable/disable
without reinstall.
