Found pre-push by this round's third adversarial review pass. Not a rebase regression — round 3 shipped it and #2755 doubled it. resolveExtraWatchTargets watches one config.toml per non-registry descriptor, and its comment asserted "GSD writes ONE named file into these third-party roots". That is false: bin/install.js also calls installSharedHooksBundle on the same root, populating <root>/hooks/ with GSD's hook scripts and a CommonJS marker. So a suite-produced leak of a hook bundle into a developer's real ~/.kimi or ~/.kimi-code passes this guard silently — #2665's own hazard, in #2665's own safety net. Behaviour is deliberately unchanged and the gap is disclosed instead. Closing it is a layout decision rather than one more path, for the same reason getGlobalSkillsBase is already a deliberate non-target: the snapshot applies the config-root layout beneath every root it is given, and these roots are not ours. Happy to fix it here or take it as a separate issue — the maintainer's call. The enumeration-relative test could not have caught this: it asserts one target PER DESCRIPTOR and nothing about whether one per descriptor is enough, because its expectation is derived from the same array it checks. That is exactly the scope boundary round-2 Nit 7 asked to be marked, biting one layer up from where it was marked; the test now says so. 479979c4's message says "there are three" — that is three WATCHED targets, not a count of write surfaces. The hooks bundle is a fourth, and unwatched. lint:ci rc=0; tests/live-config-guard.test.cjs 24/24. Comments and catalog only.
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.
