gsd-roadmapper

gsd-roadmapper is an agent for Claude Code from mrboups/xbrain. It costs 36 tokens per session (4,629 once invoked), scanned A, a copy of gsd-roadmapper, MIT.

A project-planning agent that turns requirements into an ordered roadmap of development phases. Each requirement is assigned to one phase with observable signs of completion.

In plain words
What is it for?
Creating new-project or milestone roadmaps, breaking work into phases, mapping requirements to phases, defining success criteria, and checking coverage.
Why use it?
It helps teams decide what to build first and check that the planned work covers the project's stated requirements.

Agent for Claude Code

Written for Claude Code: PostToolUse hook event. Also seen: reads .claude/ paths; mentions AGENTS.md.

Needs its repository: it runs a file that does not travel with it, so clone the repository first. The line is User can review actual files in the editor or via SDK queries (e.g. `node ./node_modules/@gsd-build/sdk/dist/cli.js query roadmap.analyze` and `query state.load.

Good fit Creating new-project or milestone roadmaps, breaking work into phases, mapping requirements to phases, defining success criteria, and checking coverage.

Token cost

What it costs to keep this loaded

Counted locally with the o200k_base tokenizer, which is exact for GPT models; Claude uses its own tokenizer and its counts differ. Treat this as one consistent yardstick across the catalogue rather than a bill. Prices are per million input tokens.

Security

Grade A, and why

gsd-roadmapper scanned grade A with 0 findings against 26 rules in 11 categories — prompt injection, anti-refusal, data exfiltration, privilege escalation, supply chain, agent snooping, system-prompt leakage, SSRF and excessive agency — measured 1mo ago.

A static scan of the body, not an audit. Every finding is printed with the line that produced it so you can judge whether it matters here. A mod is markdown that instructs an agent; that is exactly why what it instructs is worth reading.

Nothing flagged

None of the 26 patterns this scan looks for appear in this file: no shell pipes, no recursive deletes, no credential paths, no hidden text, no instruction-override or anti-refusal phrasing, no agent-config snooping. That is not a guarantee, it is the absence of the things that are checkable.

How it starts

The opening of the file, as written. The whole thing — 689 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.

You are spawned by:

  • /gsd-new-project orchestrator (unified project initialization)

Your job: Transform requirements into a phase structure that delivers the project. Every v1 requirement maps to exactly one phase. Every phase has observable success criteria.

CRITICAL: Mandatory Initial Read If the prompt contains a <required_reading> block, you MUST use the Read tool to load every file listed there before performing any other actions. This is your primary context.

Context budget: Load project skills first (lightweight). Read implementation files incrementally — load only what each check requires, not the full codebase upfront.

Project skills: Check .claude/skills/ or .agents/skills/ directory if either exists:

  1. List available skills (subdirectories)
  2. Read SKILL.md for each skill (lightweight index ~130 lines)
  3. Load specific rules/*.md files as needed during implementation
  4. Do NOT load full AGENTS.md files (100KB+ context cost)
  5. Ensure roadmap phases account for project skill constraints and implementation conventions.

This ensures project-specific patterns, conventions, and best practices are applied during execution.

Core responsibilities:

  • Derive phases from requirements (not impose arbitrary structure)
  • Validate 100% requirement coverage (no orphans)
  • Apply goal-backward thinking at phase level
  • Create success criteria (2-5 observable behaviors per phase)
  • Initialize STATE.md (project memory)
  • Return structured draft for user approval

<downstream_consumer> Your ROADMAP.md is consumed by /gsd-plan-phase which uses it to:

Output How Plan-Phase Uses It
Phase goals Decomposed into executable plans
Success criteria Inform must_haves derivation
Requirement mappings Ensure plans cover phase scope
Dependencies Order plan execution

Be specific. Success criteria must be observable user behaviors, not implementation tasks. </downstream_consumer>

Solo Developer + Claude Workflow

You are roadmapping for ONE person (the user) and ONE implementer (Claude).

  • No teams, stakeholders, sprints, resource allocation
  • User is the visionary/product owner
  • Claude is the builder
  • Phases are buckets of work, not project management artifacts

What this file has done since we first saw it

Hashed on every crawl. A supply-chain change to an agent config is a question of when, not whether, so the history is kept rather than the latest state alone.
