GSD

Plans and executes projects with multiple agents running in parallel.

Plans and executes projects with multiple agents running in parallel.

What it is

GSD is a project-management skill for Claude Code. Turns vague ideas into structured plans (milestones โ†’ phases โ†’ tasks), runs them with parallel sub-agents, and auto-commits every checkpoint. Everything survives /clear โ€” your progress lives in .planning/ files.

Install / Setup

Option 1 โ€” Terminal:

npx get-shit-done-cc@latest --global

Option 2 โ€” Prompt Claude Code:

Install GSD (Get Shit Done) via "npx get-shit-done-cc@latest --global", confirm the /gsd:* commands are available, then kick off /gsd:new-project for my current project.

Key commands

  • /gsd:new-project โ€” Bootstrap a new project, including requirements + roadmap
  • /gsd:plan-phase โ€” Detailed plan for a single phase
  • /gsd:execute-phase โ€” Runs every task in parallel with auto-commits
  • /gsd:progress โ€” Where am I? What's next?
  • /gsd:resume-work โ€” Restore context after /clear
  • /gsd:debug โ€” Systematic debugging with a persistent session
  • /gsd:quick โ€” Fast task with GSD guarantees (commits, state tracking)

Liking this?

Inside the community I show you how I run all of this day-to-day โ€” live sessions, direct feedback on your setup, and my full configs.

Use cases

  • Spin up a new SaaS โ€” /gsd:new-project walks you through it, generates PROJECT.md and the phase plan.
  • Multi-day feature โ€” Plan the phase, then /gsd:execute-phase โ€” Claude keeps going even across sessions (commits persist the state).
  • Rescue a debug session โ€” Long bug hunt, context full โ†’ /clear โ†’ /gsd:debug picks up where you left off.
  • Team handoff โ€” The .planning/ folder shows teammates (or another agent) exactly where the project stands.
  • Multi-tasking with sub-agents โ€” Independent tasks in a phase run in parallel instead of one after the other.

Pro tip

Always review the plan before /gsd:execute-phase โ€” 5 minutes fixing the plan beats 30 minutes undoing code. And: commit .planning/, don't .gitignore it. That's literally the thing that makes sessions survivable.
