FAQPage Schema
How do I maintain a living project constitution and keep governance templates in sync?

You can maintain a living project constitution by running an update workflow that consolidates placeholders into concrete principles and propagates changes to dependent templates to prevent governance drift.

What is the best way to track constitution versioning and amendment history?

Tracking constitution versioning is handled automatically by recording RATIFICATION_DATE, LAST_AMENDED_DATE, and CONSTITUTION_VERSION metadata to ensure your project governance history stays current and auditable.

How do I replace placeholder governance rules with concrete principles in a spec-kit repository?

To replace placeholder governance rules, the constitution update workflow derives concrete principles from your interactive inputs and existing repository context, outputting a final constitution with no placeholders remaining.

Can I use this constitution governance skill with an existing spec-kit project?

Yes, this skill operates across an existing spec-kit repository to consolidate governance placeholders, report sync issues, and enforce current project management rules without requiring additional dependencies.

Why do my project management templates drift after updating governance rules?

Template drift occurs when governance changes are not propagated; this skill prevents it by propagating constitution updates to dependent artifacts and reporting any sync issues it detects across the repository.

When do I need to update my project constitution?

You need to update your project constitution when governance principles change, ensuring dependent templates stay in sync and tracking versioning metadata like ratification and last amended dates.
