* fix(#934): reapply verifier handles missing pristine baseline post-rename Gap 1 (verify-reapply-patches.cjs): when backup-meta.json records a pristine_hash for a file but gsd-pristine/ has no corresponding snapshot on disk, the verifier fell to over-broad mode and produced false FAIL_USER_LINES_MISSING. Fix: return advisory OK_NO_BASELINE (non-blocking, exit 0) so the verifier does not block on files it cannot reason about. Gap 2 (new migration 004): migration 003 removed legacy get-shit-done/ runtime files but left gsd-pristine/get-shit-done/ orphan snapshots in place. Those stale snapshots referenced get-shit-done/... key paths that no longer match the active gsd-core/... layout. Fix: add migration 004-prune-stale-pristine-get-shit-done (NOT editing 003, preserving its checksum — ref #670 guard) to remove all files under gsd-pristine/get-shit-done/ as GSD-managed pristine snapshots. Includes tests: bug-934 OK_NO_BASELINE assertions in the verifier test, new installer-migration-prune-stale-pristine.test.cjs, updated installer-migrations baseline-lock checksum for 004. Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.8 <noreply@anthropic.com> * fix(#934): rename migration to satisfy legacy-name guard + mark intentional path refs Rename src/installer-migrations/004-prune-stale-pristine-get-shit-done.cts → 004-prune-stale-pristine-snapshots.cts so the filename no longer contains the forbidden token. Update .gitignore and eslint.config.mjs to track the new built path. Add gsd-allow-legacy-name markers to the remaining intentional uses of the legacy path string in the migration body (lines 3 and 100) and in tests (installer-migration-prune-stale-pristine.test.cjs lines 202 and 226; and the baseline-lock key in installer-migrations.test.cjs:1469). Update the baseline checksum for migration 2026-06-09-prune-stale-pristine-get-shit-done to reflect the two new marker comments added to its body.

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, Gemini 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, Gemini 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, Gemini 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 your first project:
/gsd-new-project

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.
