* test(#2475): widen the item-1 effort-caller guard to both CLI argument shapes The guard matched only `resolve-execution ... --effort\s`, but the CLI also accepts `--effort=<level>` (gsd-core/bin/gsd-tools.cjs). A workflow written with the equals form was a live invocation-override caller the guard passed silently, along with `--effort` at end-of-input. Lift the matcher to a shared predicate and assert it directly against every shape the CLI accepts, plus the decoys it must not fire on (--effortless, a bare --effort with no resolve-execution, item 6's --attempt caller, a call and flag split across lines). Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 5 <noreply@anthropic.com> * docs(#2475): scope ADR-443 item 1 to the operator surface and ratify the ADR ADR-443 sat at Proposed on one condition: its Decision item 1 orchestrator invocation override needed a caller in shipped orchestration. Per the maintainer's ruling, take unblock path (b) for item 1 only -- record that the override is an operator-facing CLI surface, deliberately not driven by shipped orchestration, and ratify. The ADR's own path (b) wording is not adopted verbatim: it says the scope is limited to static install-time propagation, which is false on both counts -- item 6 has a live caller (#2296) and #2481 delivered a live invocation-time argv channel. Only one precedence step is narrowed. No consumer was invented to clear the gate: nobody has asked for a per-run effort override, and #2475's actual complaint is already closed by the cascade-to-argv path. The amendment states explicitly that --effort remains supported and is not deprecated, so the scoping is not read as dead code. Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 5 <noreply@anthropic.com> * docs(#2475): correct two bare-`gsd` invocation examples to `gsd_run` There is no `gsd` binary -- package.json exposes gsd-core, gsd-tools, gsd_run and gsd-mcp-server. Both sites presented a command that cannot run as written. One is in this branch's own new ADR-443 amendment; the other is a pre-existing error in the docs/CONFIGURATION.md assumption_delta row, fixed here rather than deferred. No translated copy carries either line, so no i18n drift is created. Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 5 <noreply@anthropic.com> * test(#2475): record the guard/CLI divergence risk on the item-1 matcher The predicate independently models gsd-tools.cjs's argument parser rather than sharing a constant with it, so a third --effort spelling would leave the guard reporting green while ADR-443's ratifying invariant silently stopped holding. Name that risk where the next editor will meet it. Also restores the bounded-prose rationale that was attached to the eslint directive removed in 39793079c -- the directive went unused once the regex moved to a const, but the reasoning it carried is still worth having.

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.
