* enhance(#2572): run the verify-summary artifact check against phase SUMMARYs (W025) The artifact<->git check has existed since the beginning but was only ever pointed at .planning/research/SUMMARY.md (new-project.md:1145, new-milestone.md:425). Phase summaries -- the ones that actually claim "I created these files" -- were never checked. - extract verifySummaryCore from cmdVerifySummary: same checks, lifted out of the output() wrapper so callers consume {passed, checks, errors} directly instead of shelling out and re-parsing JSON; cmdVerifySummary is now a thin adapter over it - validate.health gains advisory W025 per phase SUMMARY with missing files Advisory only: appends to warnings[], never touches status escalation beyond the channel's own warning semantics, the repair set, or readVerificationStatus. Resolves both open questions from triage: (a) commits_exist is deliberately NOT surfaced -- its hash pattern matches any hex-shaped token in prose, too loose to show a user; (b) a phase carries N per-plan summaries plus a legacy bare SUMMARY.md, so all of them are checked via the repo-wide filter. * chore(#2572): add changeset fragment * feat(#2572): move the SUMMARY artifact check to phase completion Responds to the #2685 review. Three substantive changes. Seam (Blocker 2). The check now runs in cmdPhaseComplete, the seam the issue body cited (src/phase.cts:~1745), not validate.health. That channel does exist: cmdPhaseComplete declares warnings[], populates it from the UAT/VERIFICATION pre-scan, and emits it. The cycle objection raised against the earlier deviation holds for state.cts only -- verify.cts has no transitive import path to phase.cts, so phase.cts -> verify.cjs adds no cycle (verified over every src/*.cts). Moving it also retires the retroactive firing across all historical phases: this fires once, at completion, for the phase being completed. Extraction (Blocker 1). Pattern 2 now excludes [ and ] from its path class. The SUMMARY templates prescribe a YAML flow sequence (key-files.created: [a.ts, b.ts]) and the label matches case-insensitively, so the class previously captured the literal [ and produced a candidate that can never exist on disk -- firing on healthy projects built from the templates GSD itself ships. Stripping frontmatter was the other offered remedy; measured across all three shipped templates it is a no-op on top of the exclusion, so it is not carried. Consequence named in-code: the key-files block still is not read, which needs a real frontmatter parse. Also narrowed to the noise classes confirmed in review -- globs, bare hostnames, and paths resolving outside the project are skipped rather than reported, and the containment guard the old comment claimed now actually exists. Budget (Majors 1 and 3). verifySummaryCore takes a checkCommits option; phase completion passes false, so the discarded git cat-file probes are not spawned at all. It also passes Infinity, so every referenced file is reported instead of the first two -- a summary listing twelve files of which nine are missing now says nine, not zero. The verb keeps its historical 2-file default. Tests (Major 2). The vacuous fixtures are gone with the health block. The replacements use /-bearing paths that genuinely extract, and each fix was mutation-checked: un-anchoring pattern 2, dropping the glob, hostname or containment filter, forcing commit checking on, and re-capping at 2 each fail at least one test. * docs(#2572): describe the phase-completion SUMMARY artifact check The W025 text under /gsd-health is withdrawn with the health seam; the check is documented where it now runs, under `phase complete` in docs/CLI-TOOLS.md. Both the docs and the changeset previously overclaimed: they said a referenced file not on disk is warned about, while at most two candidates per SUMMARY were ever examined. The cap is gone at this seam, so the claim now holds -- and the text states the limits that remain, rather than leaving them to be discovered: the key-files frontmatter block is not read, commit hashes are not resolved, and globs, URLs, bare hostnames and out-of-project paths are skipped rather than reported. --------- Co-authored-by: CI Rebase Check <ci@gsd-redux>
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.
