gsd:settings

A command for changing GSD workflow settings and the model profile used by its agents. GSD is a project-planning workflow that stores configuration in a project file.

In plain words
What is it for?
Selecting a model profile and turning planning research, plan checks, and execution verification on or off in .planning/config.json.
Why use it?
It gives you one place to adjust research, plan checking, verification, and the balance between model quality and cost.

Made for: Claude Code.

Per session 14 Only the description is in the session, so the agent can decide to use it. The body loads when it is invoked.
When invoked 879 The whole file, excluding the scripts and references it only reads on demand.

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:settings 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 3d 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 — 137 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.

Updates .planning/config.json with workflow preferences and model profile selection.

1. Validate Environment

ls .planning/config.json 2>/dev/null

If not found: Error - run /gsd:new-project first.

2. Read Current Config

cat .planning/config.json

Parse current values (default to true if not present):

  • workflow.research — spawn researcher during plan-phase
  • workflow.plan_check — spawn plan checker during plan-phase
  • workflow.verifier — spawn verifier during execute-phase
  • model_profile — which model each agent uses (default: balanced)

3. Present Settings

Use AskUserQuestion with current values shown:

AskUserQuestion([
  {
    question: "Which model profile for agents?",
    header: "Model",
    multiSelect: false,
    options: [
      { label: "Quality", description: "Opus everywhere except verification (highest cost)" },
      { label: "Balanced (Recommended)", description: "Opus for planning, Sonnet for execution/verification" },
      { label: "Budget", description: "Sonnet for writing, Haiku for research/verification (lowest cost)" }
    ]
  },
  {
    question: "Spawn Plan Researcher? (researches domain before planning)",
    header: "Research",
    multiSelect: false,
    options: [
      { label: "Yes", description: "Research phase goals before planning" },
      { label: "No", description: "Skip research, plan directly" }
    ]
  },
  {
    question: "Spawn Plan Checker? (verifies plans before execution)",
    header: "Plan Check",
    multiSelect: false,
    options: [
      { label: "Yes", description: "Verify plans meet phase goals" },
      { label: "No", description: "Skip plan verification" }
    ]
  },
  {
    question: "Spawn Execution Verifier? (verifies phase completion)",
    header: "Verifier",
    multiSelect: false,
    options: [
      { label: "Yes", description: "Verify must-haves after execution" },
      { label: "No", description: "Skip post-execution verification" }
    ]
  }
])

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.

gsd:settings is a command published in the GitHub repository GeoloeG-IsT/agents-reverse-engineer (20 stars, last pushed 26d ago), licensed MIT. It adds 14 tokens to every session and 879 once invoked, about $0.0001 per session on Opus 5. A static security scan graded it A with 0 findings. No closer match exists in the catalogue, so it is treated as the original; first seen 2026-08-30.
