Tom Boucher ba3181204b fix(#1422,#1447): fix sub_repos/.git precedence; guard uncommitted data in new-milestone (#1484)
* fix(#1422): sub_repos config takes precedence over .git in findProjectRoot

When heuristic-3 (.git + parent .planning/) fires, do a lookahead walk
over ancestors above the matching parent to check if any further ancestor
has a sub_repos entry that explicitly claims the starting directory. If
found, return that ancestor instead — explicit config wins over the
implicit .git signal.

Regression tests updated: the heuristic-3 precedence test now asserts the
correct new behavior (sub_repos wins), and two additional coverage cases
added (startDir directly in sub_repo child, and startDir nested 2+ levels
inside the child).

* fix(#1447): guard against uncommitted changes before deleting phase dirs in new-milestone

cmdPhasesClear now runs `git status --porcelain <phasesDir>` before
executing any rmSync. If uncommitted changes are detected it calls
error() and aborts, preventing silent data loss when new-milestone's
§6 "phases.clear --confirm" fires before the operator has archived
or committed outgoing phase work.

A new --force flag is added to bypass the guard for callers that have
already verified archival is done (or explicitly accept the loss).
When git is unavailable or the directory is not inside a git repo the
guard silently skips, preserving the existing behaviour for non-git
projects.

Five new regression tests cover: untracked files abort, staged-but-
uncommitted abort, --force bypasses, committed files pass, non-git
project passes without guard.

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, Gemini 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, Gemini 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, Gemini 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 your first project:

/gsd-new-project

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.
