FAQPage Schema
How do I create a project constitution and development guidelines from a template?▼

Project governance establishes core governing principles and development guidelines to ensure code quality, testing standards, and architectural alignment. It is needed when starting a new project to outline team commitments and maintain consistency across documentation.

How does template placeholder management work for project documentation?▼

Template placeholder management identifies specific tokens within template files and fills them with project-specific details. This mechanism operates by validating against files in .specify/templates/ to ensure generated project artifacts maintain consistency.

Can I use this approach to update existing project governance documents?▼

Yes, you can update existing project governance documents. The process reads and modifies the constitution file located at .specify/memory/constitution.md, ensuring current development guidelines align with updated template standards.

What is the best way to ensure consistency between a project constitution and other documentation?▼

The best way to ensure consistency is performing validation checks against templates in the .specify/templates/ directory. This verifies alignment between the generated constitution and other related project artifacts or documentation standards.

Do I need automated testing standards defined before generating project guidelines?▼

No, you do not need automated testing standards defined beforehand. The generation process creates an initial constitution that outlines team commitments to automated testing and clear documentation standards from the provided template structure.
