Architecture
Understand the internal design of GSD Skill Creator through reference documentation, a developer extension guide, and an annotated source code browser. Whether you are extending the system with custom integrations, studying the architectural decisions that shaped skill-creator's adaptive learning model, or tracing the implementation of a specific capability, these resources give you the full picture from specification through source.
Reference
Technical reference for internal APIs, data structures, configuration schemas, and the formal specification of skill, agent, and team contracts used throughout the system.
Developer Guide
Extension points, plugin architecture, and contribution guidelines for customizing and expanding the system. Covers the observer API, custom skill validators, and integration hooks.
Source Code Browser
Navigate the full source tree with annotated module descriptions, cross-references between capabilities and their implementations, and architectural decision records linked to the code they influenced.
Chipset Architecture
The Amiga-inspired coprocessor model: four specialized chips (Agnus, Denise, Paula, Gary) coordinating through typed interfaces for deterministic skill processing.
6-Stage Pipeline
Deep dive into the skill loading pipeline: Score, Resolve, ModelFilter, CacheOrder, Budget, Load — each stage is a discrete, replaceable component.
GSD Orchestrator
The 5-stage command classification system that routes natural language requests to GSD lifecycle actions through exact match, lifecycle filtering, Bayesian classification, and semantic fallback.
Agent Composition
How individual skills evolve into composite agents and coordinated teams through co-activation tracking, cluster detection, and team topologies.
Extending the Pipeline
Add custom pipeline stages, skill validators, and integration hooks to adapt the skill loading system to your specific workflow requirements.
MCP Integration
Model Context Protocol gateway connecting skill-creator to external systems: 19 tools across 6 functional groups with typed interfaces and capability negotiation.
Best for: Developers extending the system, professionals understanding design decisions
