A solo founder uses slash commands to invoke a CEO role that challenges product decisions before coding, then a code reviewer role that audits the output.
A tech lead sets up team mode so all collaborators automatically get the same 23 role-based tools and standards across projects.
A first-time Claude Code user runs the setup script and gets structured prompts for architecture, design review, QA, and security instead of starting with a blank prompt.
A team uses the release engineer role to automatically generate and ship pull requests with consistent standards.
gstack is a collection of opinionated tools designed for use with Claude Code, the AI coding assistant. It treats Claude Code like a virtual engineering team rather than a single chatbot. Instead of writing one prompt and hoping for good output, you invoke specialized roles through slash commands: a CEO who challenges product decisions, an engineering manager who locks down architecture, a designer who catches AI sloppy output, a code reviewer, a quality assurance lead, a security officer who runs audits, and a release engineer who ships pull requests. The package includes 23 such role-based tools plus 8 power tools, all written as Markdown slash commands. The idea is that a single builder using AI agents can move faster than a traditional team, but only if the AI has structure. Without prompts that put it in a specific role with clear standards, AI tends to produce mediocre work. gstack provides that structure as a free, MIT-licensed system you install once and reuse across projects. You would use this if you are a founder or technical CEO who still wants to ship code, a first-time Claude Code user looking for structured starting points instead of a blank prompt, or a tech lead who wants rigorous review and release automation on every change. Setup is a single git clone and a setup script, with a team mode that bootstraps a repo so collaborators get the same tools automatically. The package supports several other AI coding agents besides Claude Code through a host detection system.
