* feat(#3146): resolve gsd_run so workflows cannot reach a foreign gsd-tools The predecessor package get-shit-done-cc publishes a colliding gsd-tools bin whose phases.clear DELETES where this package's ARCHIVES, and both print success-shaped output against a gitignored .planning/ -- which is how #3129 cost a user 43 phase directories with no error and nothing recoverable from git. The launcher's PATH branch now resolves gsd_run, published only by this package and self-locating via its own symlink chain to the sibling shim, instead of the colliding gsd-tools. A foreign handler becomes unreachable from PATH, and when no gsd_run is reachable the resolver fails closed rather than falling back -- that fallback was the vulnerability. This is smaller than the branch it replaces, which matters: the preamble is inlined into 113 shipped files and agents/gsd-verifier.md sits 2 bytes under a red-line size cap. unset -f gsd_run leads the preamble so a re-source is idempotent. Without it, command -v finds the shell function, returns a bare name, and the resolver falls through to an exit 1 that kills a sourced caller's shell. Adds gsd-tools runtime-identity, a manual diagnostic reporting this runtime's package coordinates over the baked package-identity (#498) and readHostVersion, with a strict total classifier: only a JSON object with an exact packageName verifies, since JSON.parse admits 0/"str"/[]/null/true. An inlined identity assertion was built and reviewed first, then withdrawn -- it breaks five frozen size ceilings and no assertion fits in 2 bytes. Closes #3146 Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 5 <noreply@anthropic.com> * fix(#3146): stop sync:launcher relocating a deliberate preamble placement Pre-existing defect, surfaced by this PR because sync is a no-op unless the snippet content actually changes. transformFile inserts the preamble into the first block that CALLS gsd_run, but gsd-core/workflows/explore.md deliberately places it in a bootstrap-only block that DEFINES gsd_run without calling it -- its own comment explains why: declining the research offer must not leave Step 5's commit call unbootstrapped. Stripping empties that block of calls, so the preamble migrated forward and broke the define-before-use invariant tests/explore-command.test.cjs pins. Reproduced on a pristine origin/next checkout with the base snippet and base file, so this was not introduced here. The insertion target now honours a block that already carried the preamble, falling back to the first calling block for files that have none yet. Adds a behavioral regression test over a two-block fixture. Also updates three runtime-launcher-parity tests that pinned the removed PATH fallback to gsd-tools. Their intent is preserved -- the PATH stub is renamed gsd_run so it is reachable by the new resolver, and the RUNTIME_DIR-wins test still asserts the stub is never invoked. Fixture shebangs move to an absolute /bin/sh, because the fixture PATH is deliberately restricted and #!/usr/bin/env sh could not resolve.

Two PRs adding differently numbered features still collide on the TOC, so renumbering alone does not make a branch safe. This branch alone was renumbered 165 -> 166 -> 167 -> 168 across successive rebases. Adds a CONTRIBUTING section stating the practice: allocate the number last, never pre-emptively renumber, take max+1 after a rebase and update the TOC in the same commit, and never renumber someone else's section. Fork contributors are told explicitly they may leave the number to a maintainer at merge rather than chasing the counter. Agents are told to lease the allocation and to include the file in their published touched set. Records the durable fix as planned rather than pretending it exists: FEATURES.md should be generated from per-feature fragments the way CHANGELOG.md is generated from .changeset/, and the way tests/emitted-drift-acks/ works (#2914). Also renumbers this branch's own section to 168, leaving 167 to the PR already in flight.

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.
