* fix(#3597): count scenario expectation failures in the QA ratchet gate buildReport counts totals.violations as oracle violations PLUS scenario expectFailures, but collectFindings read only step.violations. A scenario whose declared expect failed therefore produced ok:false and violations:1 in the report while the ratchet printed "0 violations" and exited 0. multi-workstream has failed that way on every CI run since 2026-08-10, when #3217 (PR #3318) made computeProgressPercent withhold a percentage whose scope is not COMPLETE. The walk detected the change the day it landed; nothing was listening. - collectFindings returns a third bucket, expectationFailures, carrying no fingerprint so it can never be baselined or acked away - both modes of main() print and gate on it; the summary line reports it - guard runMain(main) behind require.main === module, so the QA suite can require the script to test collectFindings without running a real walk (that import side effect is why the gate logic had no test) - multi-workstream now asserts the true contract: phase_scope unreadable and percent null, per ADR-3180 7.6 rule 4 - the perturbation test asserts scenario ok, closing the test-side half Closes #3597 * fix(#3597): resolve the milestone window against the active workstream listMilestonePhaseDirs defaulted its ws option to null. planningDir treats undefined as "resolve the ambient workstream" and null as "force the project root", so that default suppressed the ambient resolution every other planning-path read uses. All 18 call sites derive phasesDir ambiently via planningPaths(cwd), so the counts came from the workstream while the milestone window came from the root .planning/ROADMAP.md — the exact numerator/denominator scope split ADR-3180 7.6 rule 3 forbids. workstream create migrates that root roadmap away, so the read threw and scope stayed UNREADABLE, and rule 4 then correctly withheld the percentage. Proof: with a workstream tree byte-unchanged, copying its own ROADMAP to the project root flipped --ws alpha progress from phase_scope:unreadable/percent:null to complete/100. This is the defect the loop QA walk was pointing at all along; the scenario expectation is restored to percent:100 rather than bent to match the bug. - pass ws through as undefined so ambient resolution applies - multi-workstream asserts phase_scope complete + percent 100 - regression test in completion-ratio-scope-withholding covers a workstream-only project with no root ROADMAP - replace the vacuous require.main test: runMain defers through a promise, so the in-process timing check passed against the unguarded file too; a child-process spawn now observes the guard for real - tie the oracle-violation test to expectationFailures, and cover the absent-key, multi-scenario and zero-step report shapes in parity - flatten scenario-authored strings before rendering them into the step summary and CI logs (forged markdown / ANSI injection) - widen the scenario contract assertions past perturbation-* so multi-workstream is actually covered test-side Closes #3597 * fix(#3597): flatten scenario-authored strings on the CI-log output path The step-summary path already routed findings through flattenUntrusted; the check-mode NEW-smell and STALE-entry console.error blocks, and the repro line in both printers, still interpolated raw. detail carries a scenario-authored expect[].path verbatim, and reason/scenario/id come from contributor-authored baseline and ack fragments validated only as non-empty strings. A crafted path could print a forged summary line into the CI log directly above the real one, plus ANSI repaint and unbounded length. Exit codes are unaffected — this is log spoofing, not gate bypass. * fix(#3597): refuse to archive on an unreadable milestone window; close review gaps Resolving the milestone window against the active workstream can leave the window UNREADABLE when that workstream has no ROADMAP of its own. getMilestonePhaseFilter throws, the window degrades to a pass-all fallback, and milestone complete would then move every phase dir -- breaking the guarantee stated at the archive site that no out-of-window directory is touched. milestone complete now refuses to archive when the window is UNREADABLE and reports the refusal; --dry-run previews the same refusal from the same shared derivation. The guard is scoped to UNREADABLE, not to every non-COMPLETE scope. A broader condition regressed ordinary root projects: the QA walk caught milestone-rollover leaving 01-parser on disk, which then tripped the #1447 abort in phases clear. UNSCOPED and TRUNCATED are pre-existing classifications and keep their existing behavior. Review fixes: - the workstream regression test asserted complete/100 but its fixture wrote no workstream STATE.md, so it resolved unscoped/null and the test failed; it now asserts a milestone and genuinely fails-first - the parity test hand-supplied totals.violations, hardcoding the very formula under test; at least one case now goes through the real buildReport - drop a vacuous qa-report.json assertion (jsonOut defaults to null, so no report is written by either shape) - buildRepro emitted a repo-relative binary path after cd-ing into a temp project, so every repro died with MODULE_NOT_FOUND; it now resolves an absolute path - flattenUntrusted truncated the repro to 300 chars, handing reviewers a command that looks complete and is not; length capping is now opt-out for repro while newline/control/backtick stripping still applies * chore(#3597): backfill changeset pr number (#3607) --------- Co-authored-by: sim <sim@local>
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.
