GAIA Code 3.4

What is GAIA Code?

GAIA Code is a Claude Code-inspired prompt system for Perplexity Spaces. It turns a plain Perplexity Space into a disciplined, agentic engineering assistant — no app to install, no runtime to host. The product is a small set of Markdown prompt files you deploy into a Space.

New in 3.4

• 🛡️ Skill-engine guardrail — skills loaded via /<name> can never override the gate or engine hard rules; the hierarchy is now enforced at the instruction level.
• ✅ Accept Edits permission mode — a third mode alongside Ask and Bypass. Toggle with /accept-edits; GAIA executes writes without prompting while still surfacing what it's doing. All three modes persist in MEMORY.md.
• Built-in /status and /help commands — instant session status and command reference without loading a skill file.
• Memory export + auto-compaction — the ## Memories block compacts automatically as the Space context fills; manual export available anytime.
• Plan archiving — completed plans are moved to plans/ instead of overwritten, preserving history.
• Richer /update — running /update now lists what changed between your current version and the latest.
• New bundled skills: /doctor and /pr-review — /doctor walks you through verifying your Space deployment is healthy; /pr-review gives GAIA a structured pull-request review workflow.
• CI — scripts/check-version-sync.mjs enforces version consistency across all four canonical files, wired into a new GitHub Actions workflow alongside website lint/build.
• Website — new /changelog page at gaiacode.pro/changelog with full release history.

The four engines

• Gate / skill engine — SYSTEM_INSTRUCTIONS.md is pasted into your Space's Instructions box. It activates GAIA, raises the per-message tool budget, and powers slash-command skills: send /<name> and GAIA loads the matching uploaded file.
• System prompt — SYSTEM_PROMPT.md defines GAIA's identity, tool philosophy, dependency/version-pinning discipline, security posture, and engineering principles.
• Memory & plan engine — MEMORY_ENGINE.md gives the Space persistent memory (MEMORY.md) and a real planning loop (PLAN.md / TASKS.md): explore → plan → approve → execute, surviving across turns and compaction.
• Turn engine — TURN_ENGINE.md budgets each turn: context estimation, a generous tool-call allowance, and commit batching so the agent does meaningful work without blowing past limits.

GAIA Code 3.3

What is GAIA Code?

GAIA Code is a Claude Code-inspired prompt system for Perplexity Spaces. It turns a plain Perplexity Space into a disciplined, agentic engineering assistant — no app to install, no runtime to host. The product is a small set of Markdown prompt files you deploy into a Space.

New in 3.3

• 🔓 Permission modes — GAIA now runs in one of two modes, persisted in MEMORY.md:
  • Ask Permissions (default) — GAIA asks for approval before any write/destructive tool call.
  • Bypass Permissions — GAIA executes without prompting. Toggle the modes live with the built-in commands /dangerously-skip-permissions (switch to Bypass) and /ask-permissions (switch back). The active mode survives across turns and auto-compaction.
• Firmer PR attribution — every PR GAIA opens now reliably ends with the 🌱 Generated with [GAIA Code] footer (fixes #5), enforced at the gate level.
• Standardized tool-input summaries — consistent [{Tool Name}] {…} formatting for clearer approval prompts.

The four engines

• Gate / skill engine — SYSTEM_INSTRUCTIONS.md is pasted into your Space's Instructions box. It activates GAIA, raises the per-message tool budget, and powers slash-command skills: send /<name> and GAIA loads the matching uploaded file.
• System prompt — SYSTEM_PROMPT.md defines GAIA's identity, tool philosophy, dependency/version-pinning discipline, security posture, and engineering principles.
• Memory & plan engine — MEMORY_ENGINE.md gives the Space persistent memory (MEMORY.md) and a real planning loop (PLAN.md / TASKS.md): explore → plan → approve → execute, surviving across turns and compaction.

What it gives you

• Persistent memory and planning that carry across a long-running Space
• Multi-step, tool-using turns (web search, URL fetch, code execution, GitHub MCP)
• Clean GitHub workflow with consistent commit/PR attribution
• Optional slash-command skills you can drop in as Space files (e.g. /update)
