* test(#3864): smart-entry classify must match the verif* status stem (failing first) * fix(#3864): classify() matches the verif* status stem, aligning with normalizeStateStatus "verified"/"verification" contain no "verify" substring, so the exact-word branch never matched: a STATE.md declaring status: verified fell through to situation "unknown" (or idle-stranded on a clean tree with unpushed commits — differently wrong, which made it look intermittent). state-document's normalizeStateStatus already matches any verif* stem; the classifier now uses the same stem, so the two owners agree on the invariant. verify_failed is tested earlier in classify(), so failed verification still wins. Negative controls (completed/executing/planning/paused) unchanged and pinned. * test(#3864): review fold-in — the real handler-written verification status pinned both ways 'Phase complete — ready for verification' (state-document.cts's own Status default) carries the verif stem but names completion: at 5/5 it must stay complete (isComplete beats the stem), mid-project it must route to verify-pending (pre-fix it fell through to unknown/idle- stranded — a real behavior change beyond the literal verified repro, sanctioned by the issue's own verification→verify-pending table). * chore(#3864): changeset fragment (pr number backfilled after PR creation) * chore(#3864): backfill changeset PR number (4052) --------- Co-authored-by: sim <sim@local>

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.
