Quick question for the experienced folks here. I'm brand new to claude code and GSD, used cursor and n8n a bunch 12 months ago, built a little business and then shut it down. I'm using GSD workflow and built a post-planning hook that verifies implementation patterns in my plans against Context7 documentation before execution. What it does: After /gsd:plan-phase completes, it extracts patterns from the PLAN.md files (install commands, config setups, import statements, API usage) and checks each one against current Context7 docs. Example check: - Plan says: ConvexProvider wraps BrowserRouter - Context7 query: "Is this still the correct provider hierarchy?" - Result: ✅ Current or ⚠️ Pattern changed Why I built it: I'm new to this and paranoid about executing plans with outdated patterns. The planner agent might be using stale knowledge, and I'd rather catch API changes before running code. My concern: Am I creating unnecessary overhead? Is this actually useful, or am I solving a problem that doesn't exist? More experienced users - do you verify plans before execution, or do you just trust the planner and fix issues as they come up?

So I'm a semi-retired artist/designer/music producer and curious about AI. I found TÂCHES in the Meta Mind Music community on Skool and discovered his new GSD/Claude Code project and I'm into it. While I make good use of AI chat bots, I haven't delved into vibe coding yet. I'm one of those people that gets scared off by terminal and the technical hurdles. Not to mention the price tag ($200/mo, yikes). In my experience, gen-AI has been a waste of time and money. Hitting my limits and putting more money in the slot machine to try and get it to do what I want. There's so much hype and marketing BS and I just want to find out what's honest and what works for me.

I can't afford the $200+ per month subs needed to support full use of GSD so I'm investigating using it between Antigravity (with it's free timed windows for Gemini & Opus tokens) & Opencode using free or cheap AI models - being able to switch between these seamlessly as a project progresses. So when my free tokens are expired in Antigravity, switching over to Opencode & progressing the project until the 3-5H or 5D window refreshes the free tokens in Antigravity. AFAIK, this requires installing GSD in both Opencode & Antigravity but linking the together the different folders GSD uses as the working folder in each - .gsd in Antigravity & .planning in the Opencode GSD installation. I don't know why the Opencode installation from here https://github.com/rokicool/gsd-opencode/tree/main/gsd-opencode uses .planning instead of .gsd? Just setting this up, atm, to check it out

Go on then... What are you using GSD for right? Share in the comments 👇

Hi, I'm a retired university lecturer & old codger programmer many years ago but I still have a personality (apologies to all the software engineers out there). Having time on my hands I started to get interested in AI in 2025 & late last year hit on an idea for a music-related app which started me down the rabbit hole of vibe coding. Too old & not interested in learning modern language coding so at the mercy of runaway, fickle AI model for coding. When the app was about 80% finished I started to find the AI slop in it when I went to make changes & realised that Ai coding were mostly fur coat & no drawers - looks good on the outside but don't delve too deep. So I started to try to put some manners on the AI models & like it says in GSD intro - most coding frameworks are for teams, corporate enterprise approaches which, as a solo enterprise, is just more work & complexity than necessary so I started to try to put some AI guardrails of my own. And then I came across GSD a while ago but as I'm a cheapskate & not a Claude user, I ignored it. But recently saw that a version for Opencode & AntiGravity were knocking around so here I am. I'm going to start a thread for cheapskate coders using GSD as that's the road I'm pursuing
