* test(#3561): failing-first coverage for the --fast dangling dispatch /gsd-map-codebase --fast routes to "the scan workflow" in prose, but commands/gsd/map-codebase.md names no resolvable path and its execution_context includes only map-codebase.md, so scan.md is never loaded. Same class as epic #1891's F8/F9: dispatch keyed on a token that never arrives. Adds workflowPathRefs() to command-contract-helpers.cjs — one shared pure resolver for the three reference shapes this repo uses (eager @-include, lazy absolute-ish path, lazy parent-relative steps//modes/ path). Placing it in the helpers module keeps the lint script and the test suite reading the same definition, which is what that module exists for; #3560 consumes the same function rather than re-deriving it. Tests 16/17 are RED until the routing fix lands. Refs #3561 * fix(#3561): route --fast to a scan.md path the runtime can resolve commands/gsd/map-codebase.md documented --fast and told the agent to "run the scan workflow", but named no path and included only map-codebase.md in execution_context, so gsd-core/workflows/scan.md was never loaded and the single-agent scan was improvised. Names the path in the routing line so it is read on demand, rather than adding an eager @-include: --fast is the minority path and the progressive-disclosure split (#717) exists to keep the common full-map invocation from paying for it. The accompanying test pins that choice — execution_context must still carry exactly one @-ref. skills/gsd-map-codebase/SKILL.md is regenerated, not hand-edited. Closes #3561 * fix(#3561): bound the .md match and bind the regression test to the --fast line Two majors from the isolated adversarial review. Both resolver regexes ended at a literal .md with no trailing boundary, so a longer extension was truncated into a plausible-looking but wrong path: workflows/foobar.mdx returned workflows/foobar.md. Adds a (?![A-Za-z0-9_]) lookahead to both shapes so .mdx and .md5 are rejected outright rather than silently rewritten. The regression test scanned the whole command file, so it did not bind to the defect — the reviewer showed that an unrelated comment mentioning scan.md anywhere made it pass while the dispatch defect was still present. It now extracts the "- If it is `--fast`" bullet and scans that line alone, and a new test drives a synthetic pre-fix fixture to prove the false-pass path is closed.

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.
