get-shit-done (GSD)
A development system for Claude Code that unifies meta-prompting + context engineering + spec-driven patterns into one framework — building apps by structuring the AI’s prompts and context rather than coding manually. Another spec-driven-development instance, on the agentic-coding-harness side.
What it does
- Meta-prompting — structured prompts that shape how the agent works.
- Context engineering — tools to optimize what information Claude is given (the same “context as managed artifact” bet as conductor).
- Spec-driven patterns — disciplined phases before implementation.
- Active (78 releases, v1.42.3); JS/TS. The repo notes it has relocated to an “Open GSD” initiative (GSD Core) — moving toward a community-maintained platform.
Why it belongs here
A Claude-Code-specific harness/methodology pairing context engineering with spec-driven-development — reinforcing that, across tools, the leverage is in structuring the agent’s inputs and process, not raw model calls. Sits beside spec-kit (tool-agnostic SDD) and conductor (context-driven dev) as variations on the same authoring-time discipline. (Caveat: README/marketing; “relocated” status noted.)
