SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

What problem does it solve?

This Skill resolves the challenge of maintaining project-wide consistency by ensuring that the project constitution remains the single source of truth for all principles, governance rules, and dependent templates.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • Automated Template Sync: Automatically propagates changes from the constitution to dependent plan, spec, and task templates.
  • Governance Versioning: Manages semantic versioning for project principles and tracks ratification dates.
  • Extension Hooks: Integrates with project-specific workflows to trigger pre- and post-update actions defined in the project configuration.
  • Use Case: When a team decides to add a new engineering principle, this Skill updates the constitution, bumps the version, and ensures all associated task and specification templates are updated to reflect the new requirement.

Quick Start

Use the speckit-constitution skill to update the project constitution with the new principle regarding asynchronous communication.

Frequently Asked Questions about speckit-constitution

High-intent search queries and answers about installing and using this skill.

FAQPage Schema
How do I synchronize project governance rules across multiple documentation templates?▼

You can synchronize project governance rules by updating the project constitution file, which automatically propagates changes to dependent plan, spec, and task templates to ensure structural consistency.

What is a project constitution file used for in software engineering documentation?▼

A project constitution file serves as the single source of truth for project-wide principles and governance rules, ensuring that all dependent templates maintain consistent engineering standards.

How do I manage semantic versioning for engineering principles and track ratification dates?▼

You manage semantic versioning for engineering principles by updating the constitution file, which bumps the version and tracks ratification dates to maintain version-controlled documentation.

How do extension hooks integrate with project-specific workflows during constitution updates?▼

Extension hooks integrate by parsing YAML-based configurations to trigger pre- and post-update actions, ensuring project-specific workflows execute automatically during constitution synchronization.

Can I use speckit-constitution to automatically update task and specification templates?▼

Yes, speckit-constitution automatically updates task and specification templates by propagating new principles from the constitution file to all dependent templates within the spec-kit project structure.

What are the limitations of using template placeholders for project constitution synchronization?▼

Template placeholders require valid YAML-based extension hooks to ensure structural integrity, meaning malformed configurations or unsupported placeholder formats will prevent successful synchronization across dependent templates.
