* feat: add claude-ask-questions preset for AskUserQuestion rendering
Delivers the /speckit.clarify and /speckit.checklist AskUserQuestion
integration as a stackable preset under presets/claude-ask-questions/
instead of modifying core templates or ClaudeIntegration.
- presets/claude-ask-questions/preset.yml registers command overrides
for speckit.clarify and speckit.checklist following the same pattern
as the bundled lean preset.
- Override commands replace the Markdown-table question-rendering
blocks with AskUserQuestion instructions. Option | Description maps
to {label, description} for clarify; Option | Candidate | Why It
Matters maps to {label: Candidate, description: Why It Matters} for
checklist. Recommended option is placed first with a
"Recommended — <reasoning>" prefix; a final "Custom"/"Short" option
preserves the free-form ≤5-word escape hatch.
- Registered in presets/catalog.json as a bundled preset.
Core templates, ClaudeIntegration, and the existing test suite are
left untouched, so non-Claude agents and users who do not install
this preset see no behavior change.
Closes github/spec-kit#2181

* refactor: move claude-ask-questions preset to external repo
Per maintainer feedback on #2191, presets should be hosted on the
author's own GitHub repository and registered in catalog.community.json
rather than bundled in spec-kit. Removes the bundled preset directory
and its entry from the official catalog, and adds a community catalog
entry pointing at the external repository and release archive.

* docs(catalog): sync claude-ask-questions description with upstream preset
* revert: keep presets/catalog.json updated_at unchanged
No entries in the official catalog changed in this PR, so the timestamp
bump was spurious. Addresses Copilot review feedback on #2191.

* feat: add bundled lean preset with minimal workflow commands
Add a lean preset that overrides the 5 core workflow commands (specify,
plan, tasks, implement, constitution) with minimal prompts that produce
exactly one artifact each — no extension hooks, no scripts, no git
branching, no templates.
Bundled preset infrastructure:
- Add _locate_bundled_preset() mirroring _locate_bundled_extension()
- Update 'specify init --preset' to try bundled -> catalog fallback
- Update 'specify preset add' to try bundled -> catalog fallback
- Add bundled guard in download_pack() for presets without download URLs
- Add lean to presets/catalog.json with 'bundled: true' marker
- Add lean to pyproject.toml force-include for wheel packaging
- Align error messages with bundled extension error pattern
Tests: 15 new tests (TestLeanPreset + TestBundledPresetLocator)
* refactor: address review — clean up unused imports, strengthen test assertions
- Remove unused MagicMock import and cache_dir setup in download test
- Assert 'bundled' and 'reinstall' in CLI error output (not just exit code)
- Mock catalog in missing-locally test for deterministic bundled error path
- Fix test versions to satisfy updated speckit_version >=0.6.0 requirement
* refactor: address review — fix constitution paths, add REINSTALL_COMMAND to presets.py
- Fix constitution path to .specify/memory/constitution.md in plan, tasks,
implement commands (matching core command convention)
- Include REINSTALL_COMMAND in download_pack() bundled guard for consistent
recovery instructions across bundled extensions and presets
* refactor: address review — explicit feature_directory paths, ZIP cleanup in finally
- Prefix spec.md/plan.md/tasks.md with <feature_directory>/ in plan, tasks,
and implement commands so the agent doesn't operate on repo root by mistake
- Move ZIP unlink into finally block in init --preset path so cleanup runs
even when install_from_zip raises (matching preset_add pattern)
* refactor: address review — replace Unicode em dashes with ASCII, fix grammar
- Replace all Unicode em dashes with ASCII hyphens in preset.yml and
catalog.json to avoid decode errors on non-UTF-8 environments
- Fix grammar: 'store it in tasks.md' -> 'store them in tasks.md'
* refactor: address review - align task format between tasks and implement
- Remove undefined [P] marker from implement (lean uses sequential execution)
- Clarify checkbox update: 'change - [ ] to - [x]' instead of ambiguous '[X]'
- Simplify implement to execute tasks in order without parallel complexity
* refactor: address review - parse frontmatter instead of raw substring search
- Use CommandRegistrar.parse_frontmatter() to check for scripts/agent_scripts
keys in YAML frontmatter instead of brittle 'scripts:' substring search
* feat: add Table of Contents to generated markdown documents (#1970)
* fix: address Copilot review - clarify TOC placement wording
* fix: include TOC sections in structure templates
* fix: include TOC in structure templates and fix tasks TOC placement wording
* fix: correct TOC anchors to match headings with mandatory suffix
* fix: include all ##-level headings in tasks-template TOC
* fix: add missing TOC entries in tasks-template, remove leading blank line in
* fix: move TOC after metadata block and include all ## headings in tasks-template
* fix: use plain text for dynamic phase entries in tasks-template TOC
* fix: remove hardcoded anchor links from template TOCs, use plain text exemplars
* fix: remove HTML comments from template TOCs
* fix: add missing Parallel Example heading to tasks-template TOC
* revert: remove all core template changes, pivot to preset approach
* feat: deliver TOC navigation as a preset (closes#1970)
Pivots from core template changes to a preset approach per reviewer
request. Adds presets/toc-navigation/ with 3 template overrides and
3 command overrides that add Table of Contents sections to generated
spec.md, plan.md, and tasks.md documents.
Addresses all 8 impact concerns from review:
- Templates use anchor links (not plain text) matching command instructions
- All 12 tasks-template headings accounted for (dynamic phases as plain text)
- spec-template anchors include -mandatory suffix
- TOC placed after Note paragraph in plan-template
- Self-reference exclusion explicit in all commands
- Clarify stale TOC instruction in specify command
- Implement misparse warning in tasks command

* Add community content disclaimers
Add notes clarifying that community extensions, presets, walkthroughs,
and community friends are independently created and maintained by their
respective authors and are not reviewed, nor endorsed, nor supported
by GitHub.
Disclaimers added to:
- README.md: Community Extensions, Community Presets, Community
Walkthroughs, and Community Friends sections
- extensions/README.md: Community Reference Catalog and Available
Community Extensions sections
- presets/README.md: Catalog Management section
* Refine community disclaimers per PR review feedback
- Clarify that GitHub/maintainers may review catalog PRs for formatting
and policy compliance, but do not review, audit, endorse, or support
the extension/preset code itself (avoids contradiction with submission
process that mentions PR reviews)
- Add missing 'use at your own discretion' guidance to Community
Walkthroughs and Community Friends sections for consistency
- Add 🎨 Community Presets section between Community Extensions and Community Walkthroughs
- Add ToC entry for the new section
- Populate presets/catalog.community.json with pirate and aide-in-place presets
- Entries alphabetized: catalog by id, README table by name
* docs: add Extensions & Presets section to README
Add a new 'Making Spec Kit Your Own: Extensions & Presets' section that covers:
- Layering diagram (Mermaid) showing resolution order
- Extensions: what they are, when to use, examples
- Presets: what they are, when to use, examples
- When-to-use-which comparison table
- Links to extensions/README.md and presets/README.md
* docs: clarify project-local overrides in layering diagram
Address review feedback: explain the project-local overrides layer
shown in the diagram, and adjust the intro to acknowledge it as a
third customization mechanism alongside extensions and presets.
* docs: Clarify template vs command resolution in README
- Separate template resolution (top-down, first-match-wins stack) from
command registration (written directly into agent directories)
- Update Mermaid diagram paths to use <preset-id> and <ext-id>
placeholders consistent with existing documentation
Addresses PR review feedback on #1898.
* docs: Clarify install-time vs runtime resolution for commands and templates
- README: label templates as runtime-resolved (stack walk) and commands
as install-time (copied into agent directories, last-installed wins)
- presets/README: add runtime note to template resolution, contrast with
install-time command registration
* docs: Address review — fix template copy wording, tighten command override description
- presets/README: clarify that preset files are copied at install but
template resolution still walks the stack at runtime
- README: describe priority-based command resolution and automatic
restoration on removal instead of vague 'replacing whatever was there'
