FAQPage Schema
How do I set up project governance and development standards for a new codebase?▼

Project governance establishes foundational rules and development standards by creating a templated markdown file. This ensures code quality, testing strategies, and architectural integrity are defined from project outset.

What is a project constitution and when do I need one?▼

A project constitution defines core governing principles and development guidelines. You need one when starting a new project to ensure consistent code quality and architectural constraints guide all future development.

Does this project governance template require a specific directory structure?▼

Yes, project governance management requires a spec-kit project structure with a .specify/ directory for operation. This allows consistency checks against related project templates during updates.

How do I update existing development guidelines while maintaining consistency?▼

Updating development guidelines modifies existing principles and runs consistency checks against related project templates. This manages placeholder token replacement and versioning to keep documentation aligned.

Can I use this to enforce code quality and testing standards across project documentation?▼

Yes, defining project governance enforces code quality and testing standards by establishing core tenets in a templated markdown file. Consistency checks ensure these development guidelines remain aligned across documentation.

What are the limitations of using a templated markdown file for project governance?▼

Templated markdown governance relies on a spec-kit project structure with a .specify/ directory. Without this structure, placeholder token replacement, versioning, and consistency checks cannot operate.
