sim fba501836b test(#3090): let the destructive call ask the safety question the function already answers
cleanup() computed `isTmpPath` — the exact predicate for "is this path safe to
delete" — and consulted it only inside the catch block, to classify a transient
Windows error. The rmSync above it ran unconditionally against whatever path it
was handed, with `recursive: true, force: true`. The guard existed and the
destructive call never asked it.

The chdir at the top of the function makes the failure mode worse rather than
better: a wrong target first moves the process out of the tree, then deletes it.

So the predicate moves above both, and an out-of-tmpdir path is refused before
either can run. The refusal throws and names the path; returning quietly would
reproduce the fail-open shape this wave exists to remove.

The catch keeps its `&& isTmpPath` term. It is now always true, but it states
the condition the swallow depends on rather than inheriting it from a check
twenty lines up, and it stays correct if the guard is ever relaxed.

All 300+ call sites resolve under os.tmpdir() today, including the two files
that override TMPDIR — both create their override root through the real
os.tmpdir() first — so nothing legitimate is refused.

The regression test targets tests/ itself: a real directory that must never be
deleted, so nothing is created and nothing needs tearing down. It asserts the
throw names the path, that cwd is unchanged (the chdir hazard), and that a known
file inside still exists — proving the directory was not emptied rather than
merely still present.

Whether tests/ is outside os.tmpdir() is environment-dependent: os.tmpdir() is
/tmp on Linux, so a checkout under /tmp would put it inside, and there a correct
guard would delete this directory rather than refuse it. The test asserts that
precondition before calling cleanup, so that environment fails loudly instead of
destructively.

GSD Core

Git. Ship. Done.

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:

  1. Discuss — capture implementation decisions before anything is planned
  2. Plan — research, decompose, and verify the plan fits a fresh context window
  3. Execute — run plans in parallel waves; each executor starts with a clean 200k-token context
  4. Verify — walk through what was built; diagnose and fix before declaring done
  5. 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.
