* test(#4136): failing-first rows for the unreachable incorporated status Folded block bug-4136-reapply-incorporated-status locks the --classify contract (incorporated / needs_merge / unknown, never-incorporated guards, cycle end-to-end) plus the workflow-contract rows; REASON gains OK_UNVALIDATED_BASELINE in both shape-locks; the #2994 invocation count moves 1 -> 2 (classify + gate). All red until the verifier grows --classify and the workflow consumes it. * fix(#4136): compute the incorporated status; stop re-grafting superseded patches Add --classify pre-merge mode to the deterministic verifier: with a hash-validated pristine baseline, a file whose every significant user-added line is already present verbatim in the freshly installed version is classified incorporated (new frozen CLASSIFICATION enum, structured --json report, always exit 0 — the binding gate stays the post-merge run). Drifted (#3657), absent (#934), unvalidated (new OK_UNVALIDATED_BASELINE), and no-baseline runs classify unknown — a false incorporated silently retires a live customization, so only a confirmed baseline may ever confirm adoption. The baseline-resolution block moves out of verifyFile into a shared resolvePristineBaseline so the gate and the classifier cannot drift on what counts as a usable baseline; gate behavior is byte-identical. reapply-patches.md step 4 gains the pre-flight classifier invocation and the not-re-grafted contract: incorporated files are left exactly as shipped (their hash then re-converges with the manifest, ending the backup cycle), statuses feed steps 3/7, and the merge rules gain the already-present-verbatim arm. Emitted-Drift-Ack-Growth: reapply-patches.md — step 4 pre-flight classifier section, the documented Incorporated status needed its deterministic contract * fix(#4136): address review findings on the workflow contract Drop the unused INCORPORATED_COUNT shell variable (standards pass) and close the all-files-incorporated gap in the hunk-table guidance: emit a header row plus a note line so the step 5b absent-table halt is not tripped when nothing was merged (spec pass). Emitted-Drift-Ack-Growth: reapply-patches.md — step 4 pre-flight classifier section, the documented Incorporated status needed its deterministic contract * chore(#4136): backfill changeset fragment with PR 4373 * test(#4136): lock that a 4145-recovered baseline can confirm incorporation The hash-first orphan recovery merged with next (PR #4364) lands in the shared resolvePristineBaseline as a validated resolution; this row pins the composition so a future change cannot quietly downgrade recovered baselines to unknown and silently disable incorporated detection for prefix-less installs. --------- 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
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.
