  • Each task lands as an atomic commit.

Requirements

  • Node.js

Install the GSD (Get Shit Done) skill

A community skill: it installs from its own repository and your agent runs the project's instructions locally with your own model. SkillGild lists it and credits the author; nothing runs on SkillGild.

  1. With the SkillGild CLI (needs git). It clones open-gsd/gsd-core and copies the skill folder into the right place for your agent; use --agent codex, cursor or gemini-cli for other clients.

    Terminal
    skillgild install gsd-core --agent claude-code
  2. Any agent, with the skills CLI.

    Terminal
    npx @opengsd/gsd-core@latest
  3. Manual copy.

    Terminal
    The installer prompts for runtime (Claude Code, OpenCode, Codex, Copilot, Cursor, Windsurf) and global or local scope
  4. Or copy the folder yourself from open-gsd/gsd-core into ~/.claude/skills/gsd-core/ for Claude Code, ~/.agents/skills/ for Codex, ~/.cursor/skills/ for Cursor or ~/.gemini/skills/ for Gemini CLI, then start a new session.

  • /gsd-plan-phase the payments integration
  • /gsd-execute-phase and then /gsd-verify-work

Questions

How do I install the GSD (Get Shit Done) skill in Claude Code?

Run skillgild install gsd-core --agent claude-code: the SkillGild CLI clones open-gsd/gsd-core and copies the skill folder into ~/.claude/skills/gsd-core. You can also use the project's own commands shown above, or copy the folder yourself. Use --agent codex, cursor or gemini-cli for other clients.

Is GSD (Get Shit Done) free and open source?

Yes. The upstream repository is published under the MIT license by Open GSD (originally TACHES). SkillGild lists and credits it and installs it from source; it does not host or run it.

Which agents does GSD (Get Shit Done) work with?

The project lists Claude Code, OpenCode, Codex, GitHub Copilot, Cursor, Windsurf, Antigravity CLI, Kimi CLI, Kilo. It is a plain Agent Skills folder (SKILL.md plus supporting files), so any client that reads that format can load it.

Does GSD (Get Shit Done) run on SkillGild?

No. GSD (Get Shit Done) is a community skill: your agent runs its instructions locally with your own model, and SkillGild lists, credits and installs it. Hosted SkillGild skills are marked differently and run through the SkillGild MCP server.

What does GSD (Get Shit Done) need to work?

Node.js. Everything else is the usual: a coding agent that loads skills and the folder installed where that agent looks for it.
