* feat: add git extension with hooks on all core commands
- Create extensions/git/ with 5 commands: initialize, feature,
validate, remote, commit
- 18 hooks covering before/after for all 9 core commands
- Scripts: create-new-feature, initialize-repo, auto-commit,
git-common (bash + powershell)
- Configurable: branch_numbering, init_commit_message,
per-command auto-commit with custom messages
- Add hooks to analyze, checklist, clarify, constitution,
taskstoissues command templates
- Allow hooks-only extensions (no commands required)
- Bundle extension in wheel via pyproject.toml force-include
- Resolve bundled extensions locally before catalog lookup
- Remove planned-but-unimplemented before/after_commit hook refs
- Update extension docs (API ref, dev guide, user guide)
- 37 new tests covering manifest, install, all scripts (bash+pwsh),
config reading, graceful degradation
Stage 1: opt-in via 'specify extension add git'. No auto-install,
no changes to specify.md or core git init code.
Refs: #841, #1382, #1066, #1791, #1191
* fix: set git identity env vars in extension tests for CI runners
* fix: address PR review comments
- Fix commands property KeyError for hooks-only extensions
- Fix has_git() operator precedence in git-common.sh
- Align default commit message to '[Spec Kit] Initial commit' across
config-template, extension.yml defaults, and both init scripts
- Update README to reflect all 5 commands and 18 hooks
* fix: address second round of PR review comments
- Add type validation for provides.commands (must be list) and hooks
(must be dict) in manifest _validate()
- Tighten malformed timestamp detection in git-common.sh to catch
7-digit dates without trailing slug (e.g. 2026031-143022)
- Pass REPO_ROOT to has_git/Test-HasGit in create-new-feature scripts
- Fix initialize command docs: surface errors on git failures, only
skip when git is not installed
- Fix commit command docs: 'skips with a warning' not 'silently'
- Add tests for commands:null and hooks:list rejection
* fix: address third round of PR review comments
- Remove scripts frontmatter from command files (CommandRegistrar
rewrites ../../scripts/ to .specify/scripts/ which points at core
scripts, not extension scripts)
- Update speckit.git.commit command to derive event name from hook
context rather than using a static example
- Clarify that hook argument passthrough works via AI agent context
(the agent carries conversation state including user's original
feature description)
* fix: address fourth round of PR review comments
- Validate extension_id against ^[a-z0-9-]+$ in _locate_bundled_extension
to prevent path traversal (security fix)
- Move defaults under config.defaults in extension.yml to match
ConfigManager._get_extension_defaults() schema
- Ship git-config.yml in extension directory so it's copied during
install (provides.config template isn't materialized by ExtensionManager)
- Condition handling in hook templates: intentionally matches existing
pattern from specify/plan/tasks/implement templates (not a new issue)
* fix: add --allow-empty to git commit in initialize-repo scripts
Ensures git init succeeds even on empty repos where nothing has been
staged yet.
* fix: resolve display names to bundled extensions before catalog download
When 'specify extension add "Git Branching Workflow"' is used with a
display name instead of the ID, the catalog resolver now runs first to
map the name to an ID, then checks bundled extensions again with the
resolved ID before falling back to network download.
Also noted: EXECUTE_COMMAND_INVOCATION and condition handling match the
existing pattern in specify/plan/tasks/implement templates (pre-existing,
not introduced by this PR).
* fix: handle before_/after_ prefixes in auto-commit message derivation
- Strip both before_ and after_ prefixes when deriving command name
(fixes misleading 'Auto-commit after before_plan' messages)
- Include phase (before/after) in default commit messages
- Clarify README config example is an override, not default behavior
* fix: use portable grep -qw for word boundary in create-new-feature.sh
BSD grep (macOS) doesn't support \b as a word boundary. Replace with
grep -qw which is POSIX-portable.
* fix: validate hook values, numeric --number, and PS warning routing
- Validate each hook value is a dict with a 'command' field during
manifest _validate() (prevents crash at install time)
- Validate --number is a non-negative integer in bash create-new-feature
(clear error instead of cryptic shell arithmetic failure)
- Route PowerShell no-git warning to stderr in JSON mode so stdout
stays valid JSON

Moves constitution template from memory/ to templates/ to prevent
overwrites when spec-kit is reinitialized with a different AI agent.
Changes:
- Move memory/constitution.md to templates/constitution-template.md
- Update CLI to copy template to memory/ only on first initialization
- Update constitution command to reference correct paths with .specify/ prefix
- Preserve existing constitution.md when reinitializing project
The CLI now checks if .specify/memory/constitution.md exists:
- If it exists: preserve it (no overwrite)
- If it doesn't exist: copy from .specify/templates/constitution-template.md
This allows users to customize their constitution without losing changes
when adding support for additional AI agents or reinitializing.
Fixes#1541
