Tom Boucher a33cbe72f5 fix(worktree): bound git subprocesses with timeout + surface degraded health (#3281) (#3283)
* test: red — bounded git subprocess + structured worktree warnings (#3281)

Regression tests for #3281: worktree-related git subprocess calls have no
timeout bound, and timeout/error outcomes are not surfaced as structured signals.

Failing assertions:
- planWorktreePrune / listLinkedWorktreePaths / snapshotWorktreeInventory must
  return reason=git_timed_out (not generic git_list_failed) when execGit returns
  timedOut:true — enables callers to distinguish timeout from auth failure
- executeWorktreePrunePlan must include timedOut:true in result when the git
  prune call itself times out

* fix(worktree): bounded git subprocess + structured warning surfacing (#3281)

Root cause (PRED.k014): execGit / execGitDefault called spawnSync with no
timeout, so `git worktree list --porcelain` against a hung/locked repo
blocked the parent process indefinitely.  Downstream callers in core.cjs
and verify.cjs then swallowed any resulting failure silently via
catch { /* intentionally empty */ } (PRED.k302).

Fix:
- worktree-safety.cjs: execGitDefault now passes timeout:10000 to spawnSync.
  Detects SIGTERM+ETIMEDOUT and returns { timedOut:true } in the result shape.
  readWorktreeList maps timedOut:true -> reason:'git_timed_out' (distinct from
  generic git_list_failed) so callers can emit a structured warning.
  executeWorktreePrunePlan propagates timedOut:true as a first-class result field.
- core.cjs: execGit receives the same timeout+timedOut treatment (PRED.k014
  uniform-fix discipline).  pruneOrphanedWorktrees now emits a [gsd-tools]
  WARNING to stderr when the git prune call times out instead of silent-catch.
- verify.cjs: Check 11 branches on worktreeHealth.ok to surface W018 warning
  when the worktree list times out, instead of silent-catch on ok:false.

Backward-compatible: exitCode/stdout/stderr continue to work for all existing
callers; timedOut and error are additive new fields.

* changeset: pr=3283 for #3281

* fix(verify): rename W020 for worktree-timeout warning to avoid W018 collision

W018 is already used for milestone archive drift (Check 12). The new
worktree-health-degraded timeout warning was assigned W018, causing
warning-code ambiguity in triage. Rename to W020 (next available code).

GET SHIT DONE

English · Português · 简体中文 · 日本語 · 한국어

A light-weight meta-prompting, context engineering, and spec-driven development system for Claude Code, OpenCode, Gemini CLI, Kilo, Codex, Copilot, Cursor, Windsurf, and more.

Solves context rot — the quality degradation that happens as your AI fills its context window.

npm version npm downloads Tests Discord X (Twitter) $GSD Token GitHub stars License


npx get-shit-done-cc@latest

Works on Mac, Windows, and Linux.


GSD Install


"If you know clearly what you want, this WILL build it for you. No bs."

"I've done SpecKit, OpenSpec and Taskmaster — this has produced the best results for me."

"By far the most powerful addition to my Claude Code. Nothing over-engineered. Literally just gets shit done."


Trusted by engineers at Amazon, Google, Shopify, and Webflow.


Important

Returning to GSD?

Run /gsd-map-codebase to re-index your codebase, then /gsd-new-project to rebuild GSD's planning context. Your code is fine — GSD just needs its context rebuilt. See the CHANGELOG for what's new.


Why I Built This

I'm a solo developer. I don't write code — Claude Code does.

Other spec-driven tools exist, but they're all built for 50-person engineering orgs — sprint ceremonies, story points, stakeholder syncs, Jira workflows. I'm not that. I'm a creative person trying to build great things consistently.

So I built GSD. The complexity is in the system, not in your workflow. Behind the scenes: context engineering, XML prompt formatting, subagent orchestration, state management. What you see: a few commands that just work.

The system gives Claude everything it needs to do the work and verify it. I trust the workflow. It just does a good job.

TÂCHES


How It Works

The loop is six commands. Each one does exactly one thing.

1. Initialize

/gsd-new-project

Questions → research → requirements → roadmap. You approve it, then you're ready to build.

Already have code? Run /gsd-map-codebase first. It analyzes your stack, architecture, and conventions so /gsd-new-project asks the right questions.

2. Discuss

/gsd-discuss-phase 1

Your roadmap has a sentence per phase. That's not enough to build it the way you imagine it. Discuss captures your decisions before anything gets planned: layouts, API shapes, error handling, data structures — whatever gray areas exist for this specific phase.

The output feeds directly into research and planning. Skip it, get reasonable defaults. Use it, get your vision.

3. Plan

/gsd-plan-phase 1

Research → plan → verify, in a loop until the plans pass. Each plan is small enough to execute in a fresh context window.

4. Execute

/gsd-execute-phase 1

Plans run in parallel waves. Each executor gets a fresh 200k-token context. Each task gets its own atomic commit. Walk away, come back to completed work with a clean git history.

Your main context window stays at 3040%. The work happens in the subagents.

5. Verify

/gsd-verify-work 1

Walk through what was built. Anything broken gets a diagnosed fix plan — ready for immediate re-execution. You don't debug manually; you just run execute again.

6. Repeat → Ship

/gsd-ship 1
/gsd-complete-milestone
/gsd-new-milestone

Loop discuss → plan → execute → verify → ship until the milestone is done. Then archive, tag, and start the next one fresh.


Getting Started

npx get-shit-done-cc@latest

The installer prompts for your runtime (Claude Code, OpenCode, Gemini CLI, Kilo, Codex, Copilot, Cursor, Windsurf, and more) and whether to install globally or locally.

claude --dangerously-skip-permissions

GSD is built for frictionless automation. Skip-permissions is how it's intended to run.

See docs/USER-GUIDE.md for the full walkthrough, non-interactive install flags for all 15 runtimes, minimal install (--minimal), Docker setup, and permissions configuration.


Commands

The main loop:

Command What it does
/gsd-new-project Questions → research → requirements → roadmap
/gsd-discuss-phase [N] Capture implementation decisions before planning
/gsd-plan-phase [N] Research + plan + verify
/gsd-execute-phase <N> Execute plans in parallel waves
/gsd-verify-work [N] Manual acceptance testing
/gsd-ship [N] Create PR from verified phase work
/gsd-progress --next Auto-detect and run the next step
/gsd-complete-milestone Archive milestone and tag release
/gsd-new-milestone Start next version

For ad-hoc tasks, autonomous mode, codebase analysis, forensics, and the full command surface — see docs/COMMANDS.md.


Why It Works

Three things most AI-coding setups get wrong:

1. Context bloat. As a session grows, quality degrades. GSD keeps your main context clean by doing the heavy work in fresh subagent contexts. Researchers, planners, and executors each start fresh with exactly what they need.

2. No shared memory. GSD maintains structured artifacts that survive session boundaries: PROJECT.md (vision), REQUIREMENTS.md (scope), ROADMAP.md (where you're going), STATE.md (current position and decisions), CONTEXT.md (per-phase implementation decisions). Every new session loads these and knows exactly where things stand.

3. No verification. Code that "runs" isn't code that "works." GSD's verify step walks you through what was built, diagnoses failures with dedicated debug agents, and generates fix plans before you declare a phase done.

See docs/ARCHITECTURE.md for how the multi-agent orchestration and context engineering work in detail.


Configuration

Settings live in .planning/config.json. Configure during /gsd-new-project or update with /gsd-settings.

Key dials:

Setting What it controls
mode interactive (confirm each step) or yolo (auto-approve)
Model profiles quality / balanced / budget — controls which model each agent uses
workflow.research / plan_check / verifier Toggle the quality agents that add tokens and time
parallelization.enabled Run independent plans simultaneously

For the full configuration reference — all settings, git branching strategies, per-runtime model overrides, workstream config inheritance, agent skills injection — see docs/CONFIGURATION.md.

Troubleshooting

Commands not showing up? Restart your runtime after install. GSD installs to ~/.claude/skills/gsd-*/ (Claude Code), ~/.codex/skills/gsd-*/ (Codex), or the equivalent for your runtime.

Something broken? Re-run the installer — it's idempotent:

npx get-shit-done-cc@latest

Containers or Docker? Set CLAUDE_CONFIG_DIR before installing to avoid tilde-expansion issues:

CLAUDE_CONFIG_DIR=/home/youruser/.claude npx get-shit-done-cc --global

Full troubleshooting and uninstall instructions in docs/USER-GUIDE.md.
