| 4 | +## GSDD Governance (Generated) |
| 5 | + |
| 6 | +This block is managed by `gsdd`. Do not edit inside the block directly. |
| 7 | +Edit the source template in the GSDD framework instead. |
| 8 | + |
| 9 | +### What This Project Uses |
| 10 | +- Framework: GSDD (Spec-Driven Development) |
| 11 | +- Planning dir: `.planning/` (specs, roadmaps, plans, research, templates) |
| 12 | +- Lifecycle: `bootstrap (gsdd init) -> new-project -> [discuss-approach -> plan -> execute -> verify] x N -> audit-milestone` for roadmap work |
| 13 | +- Supporting workflows: quick (sub-hour tasks), map-codebase (codebase analysis), pause/resume (session management), progress (status query) |
| 14 | + |
| 15 | +### Rules You MUST Follow |
| 16 | + |
| 17 | +1. Never Skip The Workflow |
| 18 | +- Roadmap work should follow: plan -> execute -> verify. |
| 19 | +- Direct user requests do NOT need to be forced into a phase or plan unless the user explicitly wants roadmap tracking. |
| 20 | +- Before coding roadmap work: read `.planning/SPEC.md`, `.planning/ROADMAP.md`, and the relevant phase plan if one exists. |
| 21 | +- After coding: verify against the relevant success criteria before claiming done. |
| 22 | + |
| 23 | +2. Read Before You Write |
| 24 | +- If `.planning/` exists, read in order: |
| 25 | + - `.planning/SPEC.md` |
| 26 | + - `.planning/ROADMAP.md` |
| 27 | + - `.planning/config.json` |
| 28 | + - The relevant phase plan in `.planning/phases/` when the work is roadmap-scoped |
| 29 | +- If `.planning/` does not exist, the project has not been bootstrapped. Run `gsdd init`, then run the new-project workflow (`.agents/skills/gsdd-new-project/SKILL.md`). |
| 30 | + |
| 31 | +3. Stay In Scope (Zero Deviation) |
| 32 | +- Implement ONLY what the approved plan or direct user request specifies. |
| 33 | +- If you notice unrelated improvements, do not implement them. Record them as a TODO for a future phase. |
| 34 | + |
| 35 | +Priority order when instructions conflict: |
| 36 | +- Developer explicit instruction (highest) |
| 37 | +- Current approved plan or direct task scope |
| 38 | +- `.planning/SPEC.md` |
| 39 | +- General best practices (lowest) |
| 40 | + |
| 41 | +4. Version Control Protocol |
| 42 | +- Treat `.planning/config.json` -> `gitProtocol` as advisory guidance, not a mandatory naming template. |
| 43 | +- Follow the existing repo or team git conventions first. |
| 44 | +- Do not mention phase, plan, or task IDs in commit or PR names unless explicitly requested. |
| 45 | +- Tests must pass before committing. |
| 46 | + |
| 47 | +5. Verify Your Own Work (Exists -> Substantive -> Wired) |
| 48 | +Before reporting "done", verify each deliverable: |
| 49 | +- Exists: artifact is present where the plan says it should be |
| 50 | +- Substantive: real content/code, not placeholders or TODOs |
| 51 | +- Wired: connected to the system (imported, called, rendered, tested) |
| 52 | + |
| 53 | +6. Research Before Unfamiliar Domains |
| 54 | +If you are not confident about a domain/library/pattern: |
| 55 | +- Stop and research first (docs + existing code). |
| 56 | +- Do not assume training data is current. |
| 57 | +- Cite sources in `.planning/research/` (or `.internal-research/` for framework work). |
| 58 | + |
| 59 | +7. Never Hallucinate Paths Or APIs |
| 60 | +- Use only file paths you've confirmed exist. |
| 61 | +- Use only APIs verified in docs or source. |
| 62 | + |
| 63 | +8. Adapter Architecture Rule |
| 64 | +- Do not pollute core workflows (`distilled/workflows/*.md`) with vendor-specific syntax. |
| 65 | +- Tool-specific adapters are generated in `bin/` (generators, not converters). |
| 66 | + |
| 67 | +9. Anti-YOLO |
| 68 | +- Do not delete or rewrite code unless explicitly asked. |
| 69 | +- If asked for analysis, answer first; propose changes separately. |
| 70 | + |
| 71 | +### Where The Workflows Live |
| 72 | +- Primary lifecycle: |
| 73 | + - `.agents/skills/gsdd-new-project/SKILL.md` — project initialization (spec + roadmap) |
| 74 | + - `.agents/skills/gsdd-plan/SKILL.md` — phase planning with optional independent checking |
| 75 | + - `.agents/skills/gsdd-execute/SKILL.md` — plan execution with quality gates |
| 76 | + - `.agents/skills/gsdd-verify/SKILL.md` — phase goal-backward verification |
| 77 | + - `.agents/skills/gsdd-verify-work/SKILL.md` — conversational UAT testing with structured gap tracking |
| 78 | + - `.agents/skills/gsdd-audit-milestone/SKILL.md` — milestone integration audit |
| 79 | +- Milestone lifecycle: |
| 80 | + - `.agents/skills/gsdd-complete-milestone/SKILL.md` — archive shipped milestone, evolve spec, collapse roadmap |
| 81 | + - `.agents/skills/gsdd-new-milestone/SKILL.md` — start next milestone cycle (goals, requirements, roadmap phases) |
| 82 | + - `.agents/skills/gsdd-plan-milestone-gaps/SKILL.md` — create gap-closure phases from audit results |
| 83 | +- Supporting workflows: |
| 84 | + - `.agents/skills/gsdd-quick/SKILL.md` — sub-hour tasks outside the phase cycle |
| 85 | + - `.agents/skills/gsdd-map-codebase/SKILL.md` — codebase analysis and refresh |
| 86 | + - `.agents/skills/gsdd-pause/SKILL.md` — session checkpoint |
| 87 | + - `.agents/skills/gsdd-resume/SKILL.md` — session context restore and routing |
| 88 | + - `.agents/skills/gsdd-progress/SKILL.md` — read-only status and next-action routing |
| 89 | + |
| 90 | +### How To Invoke Workflows |
| 91 | + |
| 92 | +How you run these workflows depends on your tool: |
| 93 | + |
| 94 | +- **Claude Code / OpenCode / Cursor / Copilot / Gemini:** Use slash commands — `/gsdd-new-project`, `/gsdd-plan`, `/gsdd-execute`, etc. |
| 95 | +- **Codex CLI:** Use skill references — `$gsdd-new-project`, `$gsdd-plan`, `$gsdd-execute`, etc. |
| 96 | +- **Other AI tools:** Open the SKILL.md file listed above and follow its instructions. |
| 97 | + |
| 98 | +If this root `AGENTS.md` block is present in a Cursor, Copilot, or Gemini project, treat it as behavioral governance on top of the runtime's native slash-command discovery. Do not treat this file as the mechanism that makes the workflows discoverable. |
| 99 | + |
| 100 | +Start with the new-project workflow to produce `.planning/SPEC.md` and `.planning/ROADMAP.md`. |

5 | 105 | These are non-negotiable. Every PR, feature, and design decision must respect them. |
