* docs(#3889): ADR-3889 — the process-exit contract Records the decision for epic #3889: one Outcome vocabulary, one pure projection to an integer, two terminators sharing both. Doc-only. Regenerates docs/adr/README.md via gen-adr-index. Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 5 <noreply@anthropic.com> * docs(#3889): rewrite ADR-3889 as an exit-code registry, on measured evidence The first draft's census was grep-derived and roughly 2x inflated: it counted comment prose and also matched process.exitCode, the correct pattern. An AST census (@typescript-eslint/parser, CallExpression on process.exit) gives 128 deduped call sites, 71% of them in hooks/, against 88 process.exitCode assignments already in use. scripts/ is effectively migrated (39:1). Corrects the framing accordingly: the seam (src/cli-exit.cts) already exists and is already adopted; what is missing is an allocator and a hooks adapter. Replaces the fixed six-value enum with a registry: 0 and 1 free, 2 reserved to the Claude Code hook protocol, 3-13 forbidden (Node reserves them), 64+ allocated with one meaning and one owner per code. Domain codes permitted. Adds three findings obtained by reading and executing the code: - ui-safety-gate/api-coverage report empty stdin as an authoritative negative verdict (exit 1) — reproduced with a control - four modules hand-roll the same three-outcome convention, documented only in a comment at src/ui-safety-gate.cts:137 - two capability fragments fabricate {"detected":false} on probe failure, while the honest {"skipped":true,"reason":"sdk-failed"} form already exists in-tree Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 5 <noreply@anthropic.com> --------- Co-authored-by: sim <sim@local> Co-authored-by: Claude Opus 5 <noreply@anthropic.com>
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
New here? Follow Your first project for a guided walkthrough from install to first shipped phase, or Onboarding an existing codebase for brownfield setup.

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.
