* test(#4657): add failing-first coverage for the ui probe's text_en channel Mirrors the #3717/#4156 test shape onto the UI adapter: a failing-first proposeConsiderations regression (Danish text + English text_en must classify as its English equivalent, not land in the #1110 unclassified sentinel), proposeElements/analyzeCoverage/CLI end-to-end pairs, fail-closed text_en validation cases (empty/whitespace/non-string, unconditional under an elements override), a ui-phase.md Step 9.5 workflow-prose contract test, a reference-doc Inputs parity test, and a fast-check property proving any cue-matching prose classifies identically under a cue-free Danish rendering plus text_en. All new assertions are RED until src/ui-consideration-probe.cts and the workflow/reference docs are updated. * fix(#4657): give the ui consideration probe a text_en language channel Element gains an optional text_en; classifyElement's own signature stays untouched (a locked, directly-tested export) and the text_en ?? text selection is pushed to the two classification call sites (proposeConsiderations, proposeElements) instead. text_en is validated fail-closed: an empty or whitespace-only value throws rather than silently winning the ?? fallback and degrading classification to zero kinds. Mirrors #3717/#4156 onto the UI adapter: ui-phase.md Step 9.5 gains the Non-English projects section (mirroring spec-phase Step 5.5) and the ELEMENTS_JSON shape comment documents the field with both zero-applicable guard arms named; the reference doc's Inputs section, the PROBE.ui CONTEXT predicate (with both derived indexes regenerated), and the nav-override test expectation stay in sync. The ui-phase contract test carries the site-scoped allow-test-rule marker and its cluster is registered in the test-file-count allowlist ratchet.

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
New here? Follow Your first project for a guided walkthrough from install to first shipped phase, or Onboarding an existing codebase for brownfield setup.

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.
