Everything gald3r can do

One install, no feature gates. The complete framework — 13 agents, 111 skills, 179 commands — ships everything below. The self-hosted MCP backend is opt-in and also free.

See how it's licensed on the pricing page.

Core Framework

  • .gald3r/ project structure

    PROJECT.md, TASKS.md, BUGS.md, PLAN.md, DECISIONS.md, CONSTRAINTS.md

  • File-first (no cloud)

    Everything lives in your repo. Commits with your code.

  • FSL-1.1-Apache license posture

    Public releases are fair-source licensed; private/internal repos remain proprietary.

  • Git-native workflow

    No accounts, no databases, no telemetry

  • PROJECT.md session injection

    Agents read mission, goals, and constraints at start

  • CONSTRAINTS.md enforcement

    Hard rules agents check before marking tasks done

  • DECISIONS.md audit trail

    Append-only log of architectural choices and rationale

Task Management

  • TASKS.md master index

    Single source of truth for all work items

  • Individual task files

    tasks/ folder with spec, acceptance criteria, status history

  • Status lifecycle

    pending → in-progress → awaiting-verification → complete

  • Priority + dependency system

    Critical/High/Medium/Low; blocked-by dependencies

  • Subsystem ownership

    Tasks linked to subsystem specs for ownership tracking

  • Sprint/batch planning

    Complexity scoring and sprint load estimation

Quality Gates

  • Adversarial implement/verify split

    The agent that writes code cannot mark it done

  • @g-go-code implement command

    Structured autonomous implementation loop

  • @g-go-review verify command

    Independent verification in a fresh session

  • Acceptance criteria gate

    Agent walks every AC item before marking [🔍]

  • Bug-discovery gate

    Pre-existing bugs must be logged before task can close

  • Stub/TODO scan

    Implementation scanner blocks tasks with unresolved TODOs

Skills

  • Task management skill

    g-skl-tasks: create, update, status transitions

  • Bug tracking skill

    g-skl-bugs: BUGS.md + bugs/ lifecycle

  • Feature management skill

    g-skl-features: staging → specced → committed → shipped

  • Code review skill

    g-skl-code-review: security, quality, performance review

  • Git commit skill

    g-skl-git-commit: conventional commits with task refs

  • Project health skill

    g-skl-medkit: detect and repair .gald3r/ structure

  • Status skill

    g-skl-status: session context, active tasks, phase

  • Recon & research suite

    g-skl-recon-repo/url/docs/yt/file + res-review → res-deep → res-apply

  • Knowledge vault + ingestion

    Obsidian-compatible vault, platform-doc crawl, URL and YouTube ingestion

Multi-Project Coordination (PCAC)

  • Project topology linking

    Parent/child/sibling project registration

  • Cross-project task ordering

    @g-pcac-order: push tasks from parent to child

  • Child-to-parent requests

    @g-pcac-ask: blocked tasks request parent action

  • FYI notifications

    @g-pcac-notify: lightweight cross-project messaging

  • Sibling contract sync

    @g-pcac-sync: advisory peer-to-peer coordination

  • Spawn child project

    @g-pcac-spawn: create new gald3r project linked to parent

  • File/asset transfer

    @g-pcac-move / @g-pcac-send-to: cross-repo asset migration

Hook System

  • Event hooks

    Trigger scripts on agent events: session start, task done, commit

  • Pre-built hooks

    g-hk-setup-user, g-hk-validate-shell, and the shared Python hook core

Optional Self-Hosted MCP Backend

Opt-in and free — run it yourself with Docker for MCP-backed memory. The framework is fully functional without it.

  • 42 MCP tools

    Unified server exposed to all AI agents via Docker

  • Agent memory — semantic search

    memory_search: vector search across all sessions

  • Agent memory — session capture

    memory_capture_session: AI self-reports summaries

  • MediaWiki integration

    mediawiki_page, mediawiki_search: full wiki R/W

  • Oracle DB tools

    oracle_query, oracle_execute: source + target DB access

  • Platform docs search

    platform_docs_search: crawled Cursor/Claude/Gemini docs

  • Project health scoring

    gald3r_health_report: 0–100 score with per-subsystem breakdown

  • Docker Compose runtime

    Runs locally, no cloud required

IDE Support

  • 38 AI coding tools

    One install activates gald3r across every supported tool — Cursor, Claude Code, Gemini, Codex, OpenCode, Copilot, Zed, Kimi Code, and 30 more

  • 6 at full parity

    Cursor, Claude Code, Gemini, Codex, OpenCode, and GitHub Copilot share identical agents, skills, commands, and task state

  • Same skills/agents/commands across IDEs

    Install gald3r once, use everywhere — .cursor/, .claude/, .codex/, .gemini/, .opencode/ parity maintained

  • Cross-IDE session handoff

    Start in Cursor, continue in Claude Code — state lives in .gald3r/, not the IDE

Everything here is free. Clone the repo and go.
