* enhance(#4107): sequence external review after internal fixes Teach the planner to finish internal review and accepted fixes before opening a PR known to trigger automatic external review. If an open-time property exists, re-check it immediately before opening with nothing intervening; post-open CI, review, changeset, and tracking work may follow. Emitted-Drift-Ack-Growth: gsd-planner.md — issue #4107 adds the review-before-publish ordering rule * chore(#4107): add PR #11 changeset * chore(changeset): link upstream PR 4206 * fix(#4107): ground external-review terms and tighten ordering test Addresses trek-e review on PR #4206: - Ground 'known automatic external review' and 'open-time property' with concrete anchors (CodeRabbit App / .coderabbit.yaml, not-behind-base). - Suffix the antipatterns heading with (#4107), matching sibling sections. - Replace vacuous negative assertion with inverted-order fixtures that prove the ordering regexes reject bad phrasing, not just co-occurrence. * fix(#4107): make directionality fixtures genuinely adversarial agy (gemini-3.8-flash-high) adversarial review found the two negative fixtures added in 584ec1cda were vacuous: they proved the ordering regexes require certain keywords, not that they reject inverted order — the bad strings simply omitted required tokens rather than reordering them. - Rebuild both fixtures to contain every required token, reordered/negated, so a real reordering would still slip past a weaker regex. - Drop the unsupported 'changeset' mention from the Wave 4+ antipatterns example — gsd-core/workflows/ship.md never references changeset work, so naming it here implied a step this rule doesn't actually govern. * fix(#4107): make the full review-then-fix-then-open sequence explicit CodeRabbit (fork PR #11) flagged that the planner prose only ordered accepted fixes before PR open, without explicitly naming 'run internal review' as its own earlier step, and that no fixture tested the planner text's own wording for inversion (only the antipatterns example had one). - Prose now reads 'run internal review and apply the accepted internal-review fixes before the final open'. - Added a planner-text-specific inverted-order fixture alongside the existing antipatterns-example one. --------- Co-authored-by: Test <test@test.com> Co-authored-by: Tom Boucher <trekkie@nomorestars.com>
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.
