speckit.constitution

You can automate project constitution updates by running the Skill with a new principle input, which synchronizes all dependent templates automatically. It reads and updates the '.specify/memory/constitution.md' file, then runs post-update consistency checks to ensure governance alignment.

Project constitution configuration management is the process of maintaining governance principles and synchronizing them across dependent templates. This Skill automates that process by deriving content from principle inputs and updating the core constitution file to keep task descriptions aligned.

To keep dependent templates synchronized with governance changes, update the central constitution file using derived principles. The Skill automatically propagates these updates to all dependent templates and performs consistency checks to prevent misalignment.

Yes, you need a '.specify/memory/constitution.md' file in your project directory. The Skill requires reading and updating this specific file path to apply principle inputs and run post-update consistency checks for template synchronization.

Yes, you can interactively update the constitution by executing the Skill with the 'update constitution -p newPrincipleInput' command. This processes your provided principles, updates the constitution file, and synchronizes dependent templates.

The synchronization process is limited to templates explicitly dependent on the '.specify/memory/constitution.md' file. Governance alignment relies on the accuracy of provided or derived principles, and consistency is validated through automated post-update checks.
