feat(presets): add opt-in constitution-sync preset (#3873)

* feat(presets): add opt-in constitution-sync preset

Follow-up to #3790, which removed the consistency-propagation pass from the
core /constitution command in favor of runtime resolution. Teams that treat
materialized plan/spec/tasks templates as reviewed, committed artifacts lost
the auto-sync of amended constitutional guidance on a non-forced upgrade.

Add a bundled, opt-in `constitution-sync` preset that restores that behavior
via a wrap-strategy override of speckit.constitution (composes on {CORE_TEMPLATE}
so it stays forward-compatible). It only writes into the project's own
.specify/templates scaffolds and installed command files, never into
stack-owned template layers.

- presets/constitution-sync/: preset.yml (requires >=0.14.4), wrap command,
  README documenting the tension between auto-propagation and the resolution stack
- presets/catalog.json: bundled entry
- docs/upgrade.md: document the 0.14.4 behavior change and the opt-in
- tests/test_presets.py: structural + composition coverage (TestConstitutionSyncPreset)

* fix(presets): ship constitution-sync in wheel, clarify scope guard, assert composition

Address review feedback on #3873:

- pyproject.toml: force-include presets/constitution-sync into the wheel's
  core_pack so `_locate_bundled_preset` resolves it in a released install; the
  bundled advertisement was otherwise unshippable.
- tests/contract/test_wheel_bundled_presets.py: new contract test asserting
  every bundled preset in presets/catalog.json is force-included (guards lean too).
- commands/speckit.constitution.md: explicitly state the propagation section
  supersedes the core Scope Guard, which otherwise says dependent templates are
  not modified here.
- tests/test_presets.py: assert resolve_content substitutes {CORE_TEMPLATE} and
  the effective command embeds both the core body and the sync pass.

* docs(presets): reframe constitution-sync README around behavior and caveats

Rework the preset's user-facing docs to describe what it does, what it does
not do, and the caveats you take on — rather than leading with version/origin
history. The preset stack is the project's forward direction, so the README no
longer positions this as "restoring pre-0.14.4 behavior."

Also make the edit-in-place vs. composition conflict explicit and consistent
across the wrapper command and docs: propagation into command files/templates
that are provided or wrapped by a preset/extension is clobbered on stack
reconciliation (integration use/upgrade, preset/extension install/remove), so
the wrapper restricts propagation to project-local artifacts the team owns.

- README: forward-looking "What it does / does not do / When to use / Caveats"
- speckit.constitution.md: step 4 no longer hand-edits composed command files;
  closing caveat covers command files too
- docs/upgrade.md: note the composition-model conflict in the opt-in section
- tests: assert the updated closing-caveat wording

## Behavior change: `/constitution` no longer propagates into templates
The `/constitution` command ([#3790](https://github.com/github/spec-kit/pull/3790)) is scoped to
its own artifact. It updates
`.specify/memory/constitution.md` and writes a Sync Impact Report, and **no longer edits**
`plan-template.md`, `spec-template.md`, `tasks-template.md`, installed command files, or
guidance docs.
### Why
Spec Kit uses **runtime resolution**: `plan`, `tasks`, and `analyze` read
`.specify/memory/constitution.md` live on every run, and `analyze` is the dedicated drift
checker. The governed templates carry a pointer, not a copy — `plan-template.md` ships
`[Gates determined based on constitution file]`, and `/plan` fills that section from the live
constitution each run. Propagation duplicated the single source of truth and fought the
preset/override composition system (a `replace` preset shadows an edited core template).
More broadly, presets and extensions — not in-place file edits — are how Spec Kit now governs
shared assets. Composing policy through the resolution stack keeps it centrally owned, versioned,
and auditable across repositories, instead of frozen into per-repo copies no core team can see.
### Is this a breaking change for existing projects?
**No — your workflow keeps working.** You would only notice a difference if you relied on
`/constitution` editing those files in place. The templates are scaffolds, not authorities. When you
run `/plan`, it copies the template into a per-feature `plan.md` and re-derives the Constitution
Check from the live constitution; `/analyze` validates against it. Even if a previous
`/constitution` run materialized concrete gate text into `.specify/templates/plan-template.md`,
the live constitution remains the source of truth at runtime.
On a **non-forced upgrade**, a materialized template is *preserved* (its hash diverges from the
recorded managed copy, so the refresh treats it as a customization and does not overwrite it).
Nothing regresses.
### Optional cleanup — return to the runtime pointer
A frozen, pre-filled Constitution Check is a slightly misleading scaffold and can bias the first
`/plan` pass. To move fully back to runtime resolution, reset the section body in
`.specify/templates/plan-template.md` to the pointer:
```text
## Constitution Check
*GATE: Must pass before Phase 0 research. Re-check after Phase 1 design.*
[Gates determined based on constitution file]
```
Leave the rest of the file untouched. This is cleanup, not a required migration.
### Keeping the old behavior (opt-in)
If your team treats the materialized templates as **reviewed, committed artifacts** and wants
`/constitution` to keep propagating, install the bundled **`constitution-sync`** preset:
```bash
specify preset add constitution-sync
```
It wraps the core `/constitution` command and re-adds the propagation pass. It does **not** edit
versioned preset- or extension-provided templates or command files (those are owned by their
packages and are recomposed on reconciliation). Note that this edit-in-place propagation model
conflicts with the composition model used by the rest of the SDD commands when they are
preset/extension-managed — see the "Interaction with the resolution stack" section in
`presets/constitution-sync/README.md` for the tradeoffs and when to prefer the default instead.

# Constitution Template Sync
An **opt-in** preset that restores `/constitution`'s ability to propagate amended guidance into your
project's own templates and command files. After you update the constitution, it aligns
`plan-template.md`, `spec-template.md`, `tasks-template.md`, project-local command files, and
guidance docs so they reflect the current principles.
This propagation used to be built into `/constitution`; it was dropped when the command moved to the
preset model. Installing this preset opts you back into it: you get the guidance materialized into
reviewed, committed artifacts instead of relying on runtime resolution alone.
> **What you're opting into.** Propagation was removed deliberately — it duplicates the constitution
> as the source of truth and can fight the composition stack (materialized edits get shadowed or
> clobbered on the next recompose). This preset knowingly **reintroduces** that behavior, and those
> tradeoffs, for teams that want it. Read the [caveats](#caveats-you-take-on) before installing.
For most projects the default composable stack is the **recommended** approach, and at organization
scale it is usually the stronger governance model. Runtime resolution keeps the live constitution as
the single source of truth (nothing to re-sync, so nothing drifts), and the stack composes the
**entire** Spec Kit ecosystem — not just the SDD commands, but every command, template, script and
extension — with explicit priority levels, strategies, and independent versioning. It is a
capability, not automatic governance: a core team authors its own organizational presets and
extensions, then owns, versions, and audits that policy in one place and rolls it across many
repositories, instead of scattering frozen, per-repo copies no central team can see. This preset is
a supported escape hatch for teams whose workflow depends on reviewing materialized artifacts
directly — useful as a bridge, though for org-wide policy the better long-term path is usually a
versioned preset a core team maintains.
## What it does
Ships a single `wrap`-strategy override of `speckit.constitution`. It composes on top of the
current core command (via `{CORE_TEMPLATE}`), so it stays forward-compatible with core changes, and
appends a propagation pass that, after the constitution is written:
- Aligns `plan/spec/tasks-template.md` in `.specify/templates/` with the updated principles.
- Updates **project-local** command files and guidance docs to correct stale references.
- Extends the Sync Impact Report in `.specify/memory/constitution.md` with the files it touched.
## What it does not do
- It does **not** change behavior for anyone who does not install it — the default runtime
resolution model is untouched.
- It does **not** disable runtime resolution. `plan`, `tasks`, and `analyze` still read the live
constitution every run; this preset adds materialized copies on top — it does not replace the
source of truth.
- It does **not** edit versioned, package-owned files — templates or command files provided or
wrapped by another preset or extension. Those are recomposed from the resolution stack, so it
only ever writes into your project's own `.specify/templates/` scaffolds and command files that
are not managed by a preset/extension.
## When to use it
Install it **only** if your team treats the materialized templates and commands as
**reviewed, committed artifacts** — for example, if `plan-template.md`'s Constitution Check is
read in PRs as "here are our current gates" and is expected to track the constitution.
If you rely on the default runtime-resolution model, you do **not** need this preset: the live
constitution is already the single source of truth and there is nothing to sync.
## Caveats you take on
The preset resolution stack is how Spec Kit composes templates and commands going forward: they are
**layered, package-owned artifacts recomposed on demand**, not frozen files you edit in place.
Propagation is the opposite idea — it **materializes** guidance into files and freezes it. That
tension is the main thing to understand before installing:
- **Materialized copies can drift.** Anything propagated is a snapshot; if you amend the
constitution and do not re-run `/constitution`, the copies fall out of sync. The default runtime
model has no drift because it reads the live constitution every run.
- **Edits to composed files do not survive reconciliation.** If the rest of your SDD flow is
preset/extension-managed, the commands it materializes (`speckit.plan`, `speckit.specify`,
`speckit.tasks`, `speckit.analyze`, `speckit.implement`, …) are recomputed from the stack. Any
guidance propagated into them is clobbered the next time the stack reconciles — on
`specify integration use <key>` / `switch`, `specify integration upgrade`, or any preset/extension
install or remove. The same applies to templates owned by another preset/extension. This is why
the preset restricts itself to project-local files; propagation is reliable **only** for
artifacts you own outright.
- **A pre-filled Constitution Check can bias `/plan`.** Materializing concrete gates into
`plan-template.md` replaces the runtime pointer, so the first `/plan` pass may anchor on the
frozen text. Keep the pointer unless you specifically want committed gates.
**Bottom line:** this preset fits projects whose governed templates and commands are project-local
artifacts they review, with the rest of the SDD flow on the plain bundled core. If your
`plan`/`specify`/`tasks`/`analyze` commands or templates come from other presets or extensions,
prefer the default runtime-resolution model.
## Installation
```bash
# constitution-sync is a bundled preset — no download needed
specify preset add constitution-sync
```
## Development
```bash
# Test from local directory
specify preset add --dev ./presets/constitution-sync
# Verify the wrapped command resolves
specify preset resolve speckit.constitution
# Remove when done
specify preset remove constitution-sync
```
## Migrating back to the default
To move back to runtime resolution, reset each materialized `## Constitution Check` section in
`.specify/templates/plan-template.md` to the pointer:
```text
## Constitution Check
*GATE: Must pass before Phase 0 research. Re-check after Phase 1 design.*
[Gates determined based on constitution file]
```
Then remove this preset. See `docs/upgrade.md` for details.

## Constitution Template Sync

After you have written the updated constitution above, perform a consistency propagation pass
so the dependent artifacts reflect the amended principles:
1. Read `.specify/templates/plan-template.md` and ensure any "Constitution Check" or rules align
with the updated principles. Only materialize concrete gate text here if your team intends to
review it as committed content; otherwise leave the runtime pointer
`[Gates determined based on constitution file]` in place so `/plan` fills it from the live
constitution.
2. Read `.specify/templates/spec-template.md` for scope/requirements alignment — update if the
constitution adds/removes mandatory sections or constraints.
3. Read `.specify/templates/tasks-template.md` and ensure task categorization reflects new or
removed principle-driven task types (e.g., observability, versioning, testing discipline).
4. Read each installed Spec Kit command file for your agent (including this one) — named
`speckit.*` or `speckit-*` (dot or hyphen depending on the agent), or laid out as
`speckit-<name>/SKILL.md` for skills-based integrations, e.g. in `.github/agents/`,
`.github/skills/`, `.claude/skills/`, or your agent's equivalent commands directory — to verify
no outdated references (CLAUDE-only or other agent-specific names) remain when generic guidance
is required. **Only hand-edit a command file if it is a project-local file not managed by a
preset or extension.** Command files that are composed from the resolution stack (anything
provided or wrapped by a preset/extension) must be regenerated through the stack — do **not**
edit them in place, because reconciliation (`specify integration use`, `specify integration
upgrade`, or any preset/extension install/remove) will clobber the edits.
5. Read any runtime guidance docs (e.g., `README.md`, `docs/quickstart.md`, or agent-specific
guidance files if present) and update references to principles that changed.
Then extend the Sync Impact Report at the top of `.specify/memory/constitution.md` with:
- Templates requiring updates (✅ updated / ⚠ pending) with file paths.
**Do not edit versioned preset- or extension-provided template or command files directly.** Those
artifacts are owned by their packages and are recomposed on the package's next update or on stack
reconciliation — hand edits are clobbered. Limit propagation to the project's own
`.specify/templates/` scaffolds and to command files that are not managed by a preset or extension.
