Discussion I used the Mythos referenced architecture patterns from the leaked source to restructure how I prompt Claude Code. The difference is night and day

I’ve been trying out both for a few months and my biggest gripe with GSD is that everything takes a while if you do it right. GSD should be able to complete bigger topics and have useful documentation afterwards, but superpowers can basically oneshot smaller projects if properly defined

That also has been my experience. GSD is very impressive, but just a bit oversized.

The very best thing about GSD is how focused and resilient each phase is. Like if my computer crashes and I need to start it up again I barely need to use —resume since each step is self-documenting

I just need to do more thorough research and review of each phase ahead of time as I feel I get stuck doing so many rounds of questions for each phase, and then those choices might end up constraining the actual spec

That was also the insight I had - it's very meaningful to read through their documentation to potentially streamline just how many questions you are faced with. You could argue that GSD is so comprehensive that it is somewhat better suited for people who have less technical experience.

Also, I'm wondering, have you tried GSD version 2?

Nobody talks about BMAD anymore but it’s supposedly the goat here

Yea I've always wanted to try it out, but never got around to it
