33 markdown files organized for GitBook import with SUMMARY.md navigation.
Covers installation, core concepts, auto mode, configuration, all providers,
cost management, skills, parallel orchestration, remote questions, teams,
headless CI, and full command reference. User-facing only — no internal/dev content.

What is GSD?

GSD is an AI-powered development agent that turns project ideas into working software. Describe what you want to build, and GSD researches, plans, codes, tests, and commits — with clean git history and full cost tracking.

How It Works

GSD breaks your project into manageable pieces and works through them systematically:

You describe your project
    ↓
GSD creates a milestone with slices (features)
    ↓
Each slice is decomposed into tasks
    ↓
Tasks are executed one at a time in fresh AI sessions
    ↓
Code is committed, verified, and the next task begins

You can stay hands-on with step mode (reviewing each step) or let GSD run autonomously with auto mode while you grab coffee.

Key Features

  • Autonomous execution/gsd auto runs research, planning, coding, testing, and committing without intervention
  • 20+ LLM providers — Anthropic, OpenAI, Google, OpenRouter, GitHub Copilot, Amazon Bedrock, local models, and more
  • Git isolation — Each milestone works in its own worktree branch, merged cleanly when done
  • Cost tracking — Real-time token usage, budget ceilings, and automatic model downgrading
  • Crash recovery — Sessions resume automatically after interruptions
  • Skills system — Domain-specific instruction sets for frameworks, languages, and tools
  • Parallel milestones — Run multiple milestones simultaneously in isolated worktrees
  • Remote questions — Get Discord, Slack, or Telegram notifications when GSD needs input
  • Web interface — Browser-based dashboard with real-time progress
  • VS Code extension — Chat participant, sidebar dashboard, and full command palette
  • Headless mode — Run in CI pipelines, cron jobs, and scripted automation

Quick Start

# Install
npm install -g gsd-pi

# Launch
gsd

# Start autonomous mode
/gsd auto

See Installation for detailed setup instructions.

Two Ways to Work

Mode Command Best For
Step /gsd Staying in the loop, reviewing each step
Auto /gsd auto Walking away, overnight builds, batch work

The recommended workflow: run auto mode in one terminal, steer from another. See Step Mode and Auto Mode.

Requirements

  • Node.js 22.0.0 or later (24 LTS recommended)
  • Git installed and configured
  • An API key for at least one LLM provider (or use browser sign-in for Anthropic/GitHub Copilot)
