Tom Boucher 77bf21b3a6 fix(#1995): widen worktree branch regex to accept agent-<id> namespace (#2548)
* test(#1995): regression test for agent-<id> branch namespace

Add failing-first tests proving that normalizeCleanupManifestEntry and
planWorktreeRecordAgent reject Claude Code's current agent-<id> isolation
branches (only worktree-agent-<id> is accepted). Boundary tests cover both
namespaces plus rejection cases.

* fix(#1995): widen worktree branch regex to accept agent-<id> namespace

Claude Code's isolation="worktree" branch naming changed from
worktree-agent-<id> to agent-<id>. Widen the regex in all 7 locations
from ^worktree-agent-[A-Za-z0-9._/-]+$ to ^(worktree-)?agent-[A-Za-z0-9._/-]+$
so both namespaces are accepted. Introduce a shared WORKTREE_AGENT_BRANCH_RE
constant in src/worktree-safety.cts to prevent future drift.

Closes #1995

* fix(#1995): update workflow guards, test assertions, and baselines

Widen the branch-check regex in execute-phase.md and execute-plan.md.
Update all test assertions that checked for ^worktree-agent- to expect
the widened ^(worktree-)?agent- pattern. Regenerate golden-install-parity
fixtures, agent-size-baseline, and workflow-size-baseline.

Closes #1995

* fix(#1995): update extractCwdGuardBash sanity check for widened regex

The e2e test's sanity check verified the extracted bash block contained
'worktree-agent-'. After widening to '(worktree-)?agent-', update the
check to match the new pattern.

* fix(#1995): widen missed workflow-guard branch check + changeset + lint fixes

- hooks/gsd-workflow-guard.js: widen startsWith('worktree-agent-') to
  /^(worktree-)?agent-/ regex — same defect class, was missed in prior commit
- tests/worktree.test.cjs: fix indentation regression from prior edit
- Add .changeset/1995-worktree-agent-branch-namespace.md (pr:0 placeholder)

Found by orthogonal code review (Step 4).

* fix(#1995): regenerate golden + size baselines for workflow-guard change

* docs(#1995): backfill changeset PR number (2548)

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.

npm version npm downloads Tests Discord GitHub stars License


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.
