cmdConfigGet resolved absent keys through only the 4-key SCHEMA_DEFAULTS map, so the ~42 registry-declared configSchema defaults (including the workflow.security_enforcement security gate, default true) returned 'Key not found' (rc=1) — diverging from the runtime's own resolveConfigKey Level-4 resolver and letting '... || echo false' guards silently read the gate as disabled. Add a resolveSchemaDefault helper that layers SCHEMA_DEFAULTS over the already-imported getCapabilityConfigSchema(cwd) accessor, wired into all three absent-key branches. --default flag precedence, the legacy 4 keys, and 'Key not found' for genuinely unknown keys are preserved. Two pre-existing, security-relevant defects in the same surface, found while writing the regression tests, are fixed inline (no-defer policy): - The --default fallback path never masked secret-named keys, printing e.g. 'config-get brave_search --default <secret>' in plaintext. All six default-emission sites now route through emitResolvedDefault, which applies the same isSecretKey/maskSecret masking the found-key path uses. - Dotted-key traversal used raw bracket access, so 'config-get __proto__' / 'constructor' walked the JS prototype chain and returned internals at rc=0 instead of erroring. Each segment is now own-property-gated. Regression tests folded into tests/config-get-default.test.cjs cover registry defaults (boolean/enum/number, read live from the registry), the no-file/mid-traversal/final-undefined branches, --default and legacy precedence, prototype-pollution keys, secret masking, and the Key-not-found vs No-config-file negative cases.

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.
