GSD Executor

Atomic task execution processes a development plan step by step, committing each task individually to git to ensure isolated changes. It manages project state through STATE.md to maintain continuity across executions.

Automated plan execution handles deviations by automatically fixing bugs, missing critical functionality, and blocking issues encountered during task processing. It pauses at defined checkpoints for human verification when intervention is required.

Yes, workflow automation supports checkpoint protocols that pause execution at defined checkpoints for human verification or decision-making. This allows critical integration points to require manual approval before proceeding.

State management loads and updates project state through STATE.md to maintain continuity across interrupted executions. Upon completion, it generates SUMMARY.md to document the executed plan tasks and outcomes.

Task execution requires a detailed plan file located at .gsd/PLAN.md to begin processing. The executor reads this plan structure to implement each step, commit the code, and manage authentication gates.

Automated plan execution pauses midway when encountering checkpoint protocols requiring human intervention, or when managing authentication gates. It also stops to handle deviations by fixing blocking issues before resuming the workflow.
