## What it is
gstack is a collection of 23 opinionated slash commands and 8 power tools that turn Claude Code into a virtual engineering team with roles like CEO, designer, eng manager, QA lead, security officer, and release engineer. It is written entirely in Markdown and TypeScript, MIT-licensed, and designed to be forked and customized.

## Use cases
- set up an AI coding agent workflow like Garry Tan's
- automate code review with AI agents
- run QA checks in a real browser via Claude Code
- perform OWASP and STRIDE security audits automatically
- manage releases and PR shipping with AI
- get design feedback to catch AI-generated UI slop

## When to choose
- you use Claude Code and want a ready-made, opinionated multi-role agent setup
- you want to ship like a solo builder with AI covering review, QA, security, and release duties
- you want free, MIT-licensed, Markdown-based agent tooling you can fork and customize

## When to avoid
- you don't use Claude Code or another compatible AI coding agent
- you prefer minimal, unopinionated tooling over a fixed set of 23 workflows
- you need guaranteed production-grade support rather than a personal setup shared by an individual
