* feat(#784): emit native skills for OpenCode + Kilo runtimes OpenCode and Kilo share a config schema and both discover on-demand skills from skills/<name>/SKILL.md. The installer previously emitted only flat commands (command/) and file-based agents (agents/) for these runtimes. Add a shared OpenCode-family skill writer that stages each GSD command as a spec-compliant SKILL.md (name matching the directory, description 1-1024 chars), wired through the runtime artifact layout so uninstall cleans skills/ automatically. Skills respect the active install profile. Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.8 <noreply@anthropic.com> * fix(#784): correct skill body paths + preserve user dev-preferences Address adversarial-review findings: - Add opencode/kilo cases to _applyRuntimeRewrites so staged SKILL.md bodies are re-pointed from the converter's hardcoded default config dir to the actual install target (fixes --local / --config-dir installs; commands/agents already did this by applying pathPrefix pre-conversion). - Preserve user-owned skills/gsd-dev-preferences across reinstall in installOpencodeFamilySkills (snapshot+restore around the gsd-* prune), matching installRuntimeArtifacts. - Export installOpencodeFamilySkills and add regression tests. Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.8 <noreply@anthropic.com> * fix(#784): guarantee command/skill body parity, fix kilo-alt double-rewrite Follow-up adversarial-review found the post-conversion path rewrite could double-rewrite custom Kilo dirs (kilo -> kilo-alt -> kilo-alt-alt) because the kilo pathPrefix is a $HOME (non-absolute) superset of the hardcoded default base. Restructure so OpenCode/Kilo skills mirror copyFlattenedCommands exactly: stage raw commands, apply pathPrefix BEFORE conversion via a new shared applyOpencodeFamilyPathPrefix() helper (now used by both the command and skill writers), then convert. This guarantees byte-for-byte command/ skill body parity for global, --local, and --config-dir installs and removes the prefix-overlap hazard. Drop the fragile _applyRuntimeRewrites opencode/ kilo case. Strengthen the path regression test. Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.8 <noreply@anthropic.com> * refactor(#784): derive opencode/kilo skills from the same staged command set Pass the installer's _stageSkills() output directly to installOpencodeFamilySkills instead of re-staging via the layout, so the command/ and skills/ surfaces always cover the identical profile-resolved set — including the --minimal/--core-only alias path, which stages differently from a plain --profile=core. Verified: minimal install now emits 8 commands and 8 skills.

GSD Core documentation
Documentation is organised into four quadrants: tutorials help you learn by doing, how-to guides solve specific tasks, reference states authoritative facts, and explanation explores concepts and design decisions.
Language versions: English · Português (pt-BR) · 日本語 · 简体中文
Tutorials
- Your first project — install to first shipped phase, one guaranteed path
- Onboarding an existing codebase — bring GSD Core to a brownfield repo
How-to guides
- Install on your runtime — runtime-specific install steps for all 15 supported runtimes
- Discuss a phase — capture implementation decisions before planning begins
- Plan a phase — run research, decompose work, and verify plan quality
- Execute a phase — run plans in parallel waves with fresh-context subagents
- Verify and ship — walk through completed work, diagnose failures, and create the PR
- Run phases autonomously — use autonomous mode for unattended phase execution
- Handle quick and fast tasks — use
/gsd-quickand/gsd-fastfor ad-hoc work outside the phase loop - Configure model profiles — switch between quality, balanced, and budget model tiers
- Set up cross-AI review — configure a second AI to review code produced by the primary agent
- Work in parallel with workstreams — run independent lines of work simultaneously using workstreams
- Isolate work with workspaces — use workspaces to sandbox experimental or risky changes
- Debug a failed execution — diagnose and recover from broken or incomplete phase execution
- Spike and sketch — use
/gsd-spikeand/gsd-sketchfor exploratory work before committing to a plan - Design a UI phase — use the UI phase loop for frontend and visual work
- Drive GSD from a tracker issue — start a phase from a GitHub, Linear, or Jira issue
- Migrate from GSD 2 — upgrade an existing GSD 2 project to GSD Core
- Update GSD — re-run the installer to pick up the latest release
- Clean up get-shit-done-cc — remove leftover old-package artifacts that cause a spurious
⬆ /gsd:updateindicator after migrating to@opengsd/gsd-core - Fix the worktree base-mismatch (exit 42) error — resolve the branch-divergence condition that halts parallel phase execution
- Recover and troubleshoot — fix common problems, rebuild context, and uninstall
