About gsd
GSD (Get Shit Done) is a project management system designed for solo developers working with Claude AI agents to move software projects from idea to delivery through structured workflows. It solves the problem of fragmented development processes by organizing project initialization, planning, execution, verification, and debugging into a repeatable system. The skill emphasizes a workflow centered on deep questioning, domain research, roadmap creation, phase-based planning, execution, verification, and systematic debugging to help developers maintain progress and ship software efficiently.
The skill provides modular capabilities for managing software projects across their lifecycle. It includes commands for initializing new projects, planning and executing development phases, mapping existing codebases, debugging issues, verifying completed work, and checking project progress. GSD also includes specialized agents responsible for tasks such as codebase mapping, roadmap creation, planning, execution, verification, debugging, research synthesis, integration checking, and plan validation. Its workflow philosophy emphasizes goal-backward planning, executable plans, atomic commits, and verification focused on achieved outcomes rather than completed tasks.
GSD is intended for solo developers who want a structured way to manage software projects with AI assistance. It can be used to initialize new projects, organize development phases, understand existing codebases, investigate bugs, and track project state throughout development. Developers working iteratively and relying on Claude agents for planning, execution, and research may benefit from its workflow-oriented approach to project management.
FAQ
How do I start a new project with GSD?
Use the gsd:new-project command to initialize a new project using a workflow that includes questioning, research, requirements gathering, and roadmap creation.
Can GSD be used with an existing codebase?
Yes. The gsd:map-codebase command analyzes an existing codebase and helps document its structure, optionally focusing on a specific area.
What types of project activities does GSD support?
GSD supports project initialization, phase planning, phase execution, verification, debugging, roadmap creation, codebase mapping, progress tracking, and research-oriented workflows.
Does GSD include debugging and verification workflows?
Yes. GSD provides commands for systematic debugging and goal-backward verification to investigate issues and verify phase completion.
Are there workflow assumptions or requirements for using GSD?
GSD is designed around a solo developer workflow using Claude AI agents and emphasizes concepts such as executable plans, atomic commits, and phased execution.
