## Install

Save the content below to `.claude/skills/` or append to your `CLAUDE.md`:

## Quick Use

```bash
npx get-shit-done-cc --claude --global
```

Restart Claude Code, then run `/gsd:new-project` to start.

For other runtimes:
```bash
npx get-shit-done-cc --cursor --global   # Cursor
npx get-shit-done-cc --gemini --global   # Gemini CLI
npx get-shit-done-cc --codex --global    # Codex
npx get-shit-done-cc --windsurf --global # Windsurf
```

## Intro

Get Shit Done (GSD) is a meta-prompting, context engineering and spec-driven development system with 48,600+ GitHub stars. It solves the "context rot" problem in AI coding by organizing work into structured phases — discussion → planning → execution → verification — each with fresh context windows. Supports 12 runtimes including Claude Code, Cursor, Gemini CLI, Codex, Windsurf, and Trae.

Best for: developers using AI coding assistants on non-trivial projects. Works with: Claude Code, Cursor, Gemini CLI, Codex, Windsurf, Copilot, Augment, Trae, Cline, Kilo, Antigravity, OpenCode. Setup time: under 1 minute.

## Core Features

### Phase-Based Workflow
GSD breaks complex projects into numbered phases, each going through a structured cycle:
1. **Discuss** (`/gsd:discuss-phase`) — Adaptive questioning to gather context
2. **Plan** (`/gsd:plan-phase`) — Detailed plan with verification criteria
3. **Execute** (`/gsd:execute-phase`) — Multi-agent parallel execution with atomic commits
4. **Verify** (`/gsd:verify-work`) — Automated verification against success criteria

### Multi-Agent Orchestration
- Spawns parallel sub-agents with fresh context windows
- Wave-based execution respects file dependencies
- Each agent gets exactly the context it needs — no bloat

### Quality Gates
- Plan-checker validates plans before execution
- Schema drift detection catches ORM/migration mismatches
- Security enforcement via `/gsd:secure-phase`
- Scope reduction detection prevents silent requirement drops

### State Persistence
- `PROJECT.md` — Project decisions and architecture
- `ROADMAP.md` — Phase roadmap with progress tracking
- `STATE.md` — Current execution state
- Survives context resets and session restarts

### 68+ Built-in Commands
- `/gsd:new-project` — Initialize project with deep context gathering
- `/gsd:autonomous` — Run all phases autonomously
- `/gsd:debug` — Systematic debugging with persistent state
- `/gsd:quick` — Quick tasks with GSD guarantees
- `/gsd:fast` — Trivial tasks, no overhead
- `/gsd:stats` — Project statistics and timeline
- `/gsd:ship` — Create PR and prepare for merge

### Codebase Intelligence (v1.33+)
Queryable `.planning/intel/` store with structured JSON files for files, exports, symbols, patterns, and dependencies. Incremental updates keep it current.

## 简介

Get Shit Done (GSD) 是一个拥有 48,600+ GitHub star 的元提示词与规范驱动开发系统。它通过将工作组织成结构化阶段（讨论→规划→执行→验证），每个阶段使用全新的上下文窗口，解决了 AI 编码中的"上下文腐烂"问题。支持 Claude Code、Cursor、Gemini CLI 等 12 个运行时。

适合：使用 AI 编码助手处理非简单项目的开发者。安装时间：不到 1 分钟。

## 核心功能

### 阶段式工作流
GSD 将复杂项目拆分为编号阶段，每个阶段经历结构化循环：
1. **讨论** (`/gsd:discuss-phase`) — 自适应提问收集上下文
2. **规划** (`/gsd:plan-phase`) — 含验证标准的详细计划
3. **执行** (`/gsd:execute-phase`) — 多 Agent 并行执行，原子提交
4. **验证** (`/gsd:verify-work`) — 根据成功标准自动验证

### 多 Agent 编排
- 生成并行子 Agent，每个拥有全新上下文窗口
- 基于波次的执行尊重文件依赖关系
- 每个 Agent 只获得所需的上下文

### 68+ 内置命令
- `/gsd:new-project` — 深度上下文收集初始化项目
- `/gsd:autonomous` — 全自主运行所有阶段
- `/gsd:debug` — 持久化状态的系统化调试
- `/gsd:quick` — 带 GSD 保障的快速任务
- `/gsd:ship` — 创建 PR 并准备合并
