## About

### What it is

Gstack is a collection of task-oriented agents that act as a virtual engineering team. It handles software development tasks including product framing, architecture, design, security audits, quality assurance, and release management.

### Who it suits

It supports technical founders, tech leads, and developers who want to ship code with structured, automated roles instead of blank prompts.

### Where to use it

You can run it within coding agent harnesses, such as Claude Code, or integrate it into team repositories for consistent workflows.

### How to set it up

You need Git, Node.js, and an AI coding agent like Claude Code.

1. Clone the repository into your skills directory.
2. Run the setup script.
3. Update your agent configuration to include the gstack skills.

Run these in a terminal:

```sh
# Copy the project to your computer
git clone https://github.com/garrytan/gstack.git
# Go into its folder
cd gstack
```

### How to use it

You trigger specific agents by typing slash commands into your terminal or chat interface during your development sprint.

### Example

When you describe a project, the agent pushes back on your framing, challenges your premises, and generates an implementation document to guide further work.

### For newcomers and experts

New users can think of this as a process-oriented system that follows a sequence of roles. For experts, it operates by chaining specialized agents that consume output from previous steps to maintain context across the software development lifecycle.

### Good to know

- The software is released under the MIT license.
- Browser-based skills drive a browser to perform their tasks.
- It can read your project files to execute commands.
