* Add Bugfix Workflow community extension to catalog and README
Adds the spec-kit-bugfix extension (3 commands, 1 hook) that provides a
structured bugfix workflow — capture bugs, trace to spec artifacts, and
surgically patch specs without regenerating from scratch.
Addresses community request in issue #619 (25+ upvotes, maintainer-approved).

* feat: add memorylint extension to community catalog
* chore: update speckit_version requirement to >=0.5.1 for memorylint extension
* docs: register memorylint extension in README and update requirements
* feat: Git extension stage 2 — GIT_BRANCH_NAME override, --force for existing dirs, auto-install tests (#1940)
- Add GIT_BRANCH_NAME env var override to create-new-feature.sh/.ps1
for exact branch naming (bypasses all prefix/suffix generation)
- Fix --force flag for 'specify init <dir>' into existing directories
- Add TestGitExtensionAutoInstall tests (auto-install, --no-git skip,
commands registered)
- Add TestFeatureDirectoryResolution tests (env var, feature.json,
priority, branch fallback)
- Document GIT_BRANCH_NAME in speckit.git.feature.md and specify.md
* fix: remove unused Tuple import (ruff F401)
* fix: address Copilot review feedback (#2117)
- Fix timestamp regex ordering: check YYYYMMDD-HHMMSS before generic
numeric prefix in both bash and PowerShell
- Set BRANCH_SUFFIX in GIT_BRANCH_NAME override path so 244-byte
truncation logic works correctly
- Add 244-byte length check for GIT_BRANCH_NAME in PowerShell
- Use existing_items for non-empty dir warning with --force
- Skip git extension install if already installed (idempotent --force)
- Wrap PowerShell feature.json parsing in try/catch for malformed JSON
- Fix PS comment: 'prefix lookup' -> 'exact mapping via Get-FeatureDir'
- Remove non-functional SPECIFY_SPEC_DIRECTORY from specify.md template
* fix: address second round of Copilot review feedback (#2117)
- Guard shutil.rmtree on init failure: skip cleanup when --force merged
into a pre-existing directory (prevents data loss)
- Bash: error on GIT_BRANCH_NAME >244 bytes instead of broken truncation
- Fix malformed numbered list in specify.md (restore missing step 1)
- Add claude_skills.exists() assert before iterdir() in test
* fix: use UTF-8 byte count for 244-byte branch name limit (#2117)
- Bash: use LC_ALL=C wc -c for byte length instead of ${#VAR}
- PowerShell: use [System.Text.Encoding]::UTF8.GetByteCount() instead
of .Length (UTF-16 code units)
* fix: address third round of review feedback (#2117)
- Update --dry-run help text in bash and PowerShell (branch name only)
- Fix specify.md JSON example: use concrete path, not literal variable
- Add TestForceExistingDirectory tests (merge + error without --force)
- Add PowerShell Get-FeaturePathsEnv tests (env var + feature.json)
* fix: normalize relative paths and fix Test-HasGit compat (#2117)
- Bash common.sh: normalize SPECIFY_FEATURE_DIRECTORY and feature.json
relative paths to absolute under repo root
- PowerShell common.ps1: same normalization using IsPathRooted + Join-Path
- PowerShell create-new-feature.ps1: call Test-HasGit without -RepoRoot
for compatibility with core common.ps1 (no param) and git-common.ps1
(optional param with default)
* test: add GIT_BRANCH_NAME automated tests for bash and PowerShell (#2117)
- TestGitBranchNameOverrideBash: 5 tests (exact name, sequential prefix,
timestamp prefix, overlong rejection, dry-run)
- TestGitBranchNameOverridePowerShell: 4 tests (exact name, sequential
prefix, timestamp prefix, overlong rejection)
- Tests use extension scripts (not core) via new ext_git_repo and
ext_ps_git_repo fixtures
* fix: restore git init during specify init + review fixes (#2117)
- Restore is_git_repo() and init_git_repo() functions removed in stage 2
- specify init now runs git init AND installs git extension (not just
extension install alone)
- Add is_dir() guard for non-here path to prevent uncontrolled error
when target exists but is a file
- Add python3 JSON fallback in common.sh for multi-line feature.json
(grep pipeline fails on pretty-printed JSON without jq)
* fix: use init_git_repo error_msg in failure output (#2117)
* fix: ensure_executable_scripts also covers .specify/extensions/ (#2117)
Extension .sh scripts (e.g. create-new-feature.sh, initialize-repo.sh)
may lack execute bits after install. Scan both .specify/scripts/ and
.specify/extensions/ for permission fixing.
* fix: move chmod after extension install + sanitize error_msg (#2117)
- ensure_executable_scripts() now runs after git extension install so
extension .sh files get execute bits in the same init run
- Sanitize init_git_repo error_msg to single line (replace newlines,
truncate to 120 chars) to prevent garbled StepTracker output
* fix: use tracker.error for git init/extension failures (#2117)
Git init failure and extension install failure were reported as
tracker.complete (showing green) even on error. Now track a
git_has_error flag and call tracker.error when any step fails,
so the UI correctly reflects the failure state.
* fix: sanitize ext_err in git step tracker for consistent rendering (#2117)
Adds the spec-kit-branch-convention extension (3 commands, 1 hook) that
enables configurable branch and folder naming with built-in presets for
GitFlow, ticket-based, date-based, and custom patterns.
Addresses community request in issue #407 (39+ upvotes).

* Add Spec Refine community extension to catalog and README
Adds the spec-kit-refine extension (4 commands, 2 hooks) that enables
iterative specification refinement — update specs in-place, propagate
changes to plan and tasks, diff impact, and track sync status.
Addresses community request in issue #1191 (101+ upvotes).

* 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

* 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
* docs: remove dead Cognitive Squad and Understanding extension links
Both repos (Testimonial/cognitive-squad and Testimonial/understanding)
have been deleted by their author. No forks or relocations exist.
* chore: remove dead extensions from community catalog
Remove cognitive-squad and understanding entries whose repos
have been deleted by their author.
* docs: correct specify extension add syntax to require extension name
The specify extension add command requires the extension name as a positional argument. Many documentation files incorrectly demonstrated using the --from flag without specifying the extension name first.
* feat: add superb extension to community catalog
Orchestrates obra/superpowers skills within the spec-kit SDD workflow.
* fix: link superb extension docs
* feat: add MAQA extension suite to community catalog and README
Adds 7 extensions forming the MAQA (Multi-Agent & Quality Assurance)
suite to catalog.community.json in correct alphabetical order (after
'learn', before 'onboard') and to the README community extensions table:
- maqa — coordinator/feature/QA workflow, board auto-detection
- maqa-azure-devops — Azure DevOps Boards integration
- maqa-ci — CI/CD gate (GitHub Actions/CircleCI/GitLab/Bitbucket)
- maqa-github-projects — GitHub Projects v2 integration
- maqa-jira — Jira integration
- maqa-linear — Linear integration
- maqa-trello — Trello integration
All entries placed alphabetically. maqa v0.1.3 bumped to reflect
multi-board auto-detection added in this release.
* fix: set catalog updated_at to match latest entry timestamp
Top-level updated_at was 00:00:00Z while plan-review-gate entries
had 08:22:30Z, making metadata inconsistent for freshness consumers.
Updated to 2026-03-27T08:22:30Z (>= all entry timestamps).
- Extension ID: plan-review-gate
- Version: 1.0.0
- Author: luno
- Catalog entries sorted alphabetically by ID
- README table row inserted alphabetically by name

* Add AIDE, Extensify, and Presetify to community extensions
Add three extensions from the mnriem/spec-kit-extensions repository:
- AI-Driven Engineering (AIDE): structured 7-step workflow for building
new projects from scratch with AI assistants
- Extensify: create and validate extensions and extension catalogs
- Presetify: create and validate presets and preset catalogs
Updates both the README community extensions table and
catalog.community.json with entries in alphabetical order.
* fix(tests): isolate preset search test from community catalog growth
Mock get_active_catalogs to return only the default catalog entry so
the test uses only its own cached data and won't break as the
community preset catalog grows.
- Add 🧩 Community Extensions section to README.md before Community Walkthroughs
- Add table of contents entry for the new section
- Replace extensions/README.md table with a link back to the main README
- Update EXTENSION-PUBLISHING-GUIDE.md references to point to README.md
- Update EXTENSION-DEVELOPMENT-GUIDE.md references to point to README.md
* docs: update publishing guide with Category and Effect columns
The README table now has Category and Effect columns (added in #1897),
but the publishing guide template still showed the old 3-column format.
Update to match so extension authors know to include both fields.

* feat(commands): wire before/after hook events into specify and plan templates
Replicates the hook evaluation pattern from tasks.md and implement.md
(introduced in PR #1702) into the specify and plan command templates.
This completes the hook lifecycle across all SDD phases.
Changes:
- specify.md: Add before_specify/after_specify hook blocks
- plan.md: Add before_plan/after_plan hook blocks
- EXTENSION-API-REFERENCE.md: Document new hook events
- EXTENSION-USER-GUIDE.md: List all available hook events
Fixes#1788
Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.6 <noreply@anthropic.com>
* Mark before_commit/after_commit as planned in extension docs
These hook events are defined in the API reference but not yet wired
into any core command template. Marking them as planned rather than
removing them, since the infrastructure supports them.

* Fix hook enablement to default true when field is absent
Matches HookExecutor.get_hooks_for_event() semantics where
hooks without an explicit enabled field are treated as enabled.
Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.6 (1M context) <noreply@anthropic.com>
* fix(docs): mark commit hooks as planned in user guide config example
The yaml config comment listed before_commit/after_commit as
"Available events" but they are not yet wired into core templates.
Moved them to a separate "Planned" line, consistent with the
API reference.
Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.6 <noreply@anthropic.com>
* fix(commands): align enabled-filtering semantics across all hook templates
tasks.md and implement.md previously said "Filter to only hooks where
enabled: true", which would skip hooks that omit the enabled field.
Updated to match specify.md/plan.md and HookExecutor's h.get('enabled', True)
behavior: filter out only hooks where enabled is explicitly false.

* feat(extensions,presets): add priority-based resolution ordering
Add priority field to extension and preset registries for deterministic
template resolution when multiple sources provide the same template.
Extensions:
- Add `list_by_priority()` method to ExtensionRegistry
- Add `--priority` option to `extension add` command
- Add `extension set-priority` command
- Show priority in `extension list` and `extension info`
- Preserve priority during `extension update`
- Update RFC documentation
Presets:
- Add `preset set-priority` command
- Show priority in `preset info` output
- Use priority ordering in PresetResolver for extensions
Both systems:
- Lower priority number = higher precedence (default: 10)
- Backwards compatible with legacy entries (missing priority defaults to 10)
- Comprehensive test coverage including backwards compatibility
Closes#1845Closes#1854
Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.5 <noreply@anthropic.com>
* fix: address code review feedback
- list_by_priority(): add secondary sort by ID for deterministic ordering,
return deep copies to prevent mutation
- install_from_directory/zip: validate priority >= 1 early
- extension add CLI: validate --priority >= 1 before install
- PresetRegistry.update(): preserve installed_at timestamp
- Test assertions: use exact source string instead of substring match
Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.5 <noreply@anthropic.com>
* fix: address additional review feedback
- PresetResolver: add fallback to directory scanning when registry is
empty/corrupted for robustness and backwards compatibility
- PresetRegistry.update(): add guard to prevent injecting installed_at
when absent in existing entry (mirrors ExtensionRegistry behavior)
- RFC: update extension list example to match actual CLI output format
Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.5 <noreply@anthropic.com>
* fix: restore defensive code and RFC descriptions lost in rebase
- Restore defensive code in list_by_priority() with .get() and isinstance check
- Restore detailed --from URL and --dev option descriptions in RFC
Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.5 <noreply@anthropic.com>
* fix: add defensive code to presets list_by_priority()
- Add .get() and isinstance check for corrupted/empty registry
- Move copy import to module level (remove local import)
- Matches defensive pattern used in extensions.py
Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.5 <noreply@anthropic.com>
* fix: address reviewer feedback on priority resolution
- Rename _normalize_priority to normalize_priority (public API)
- Add comprehensive tests for normalize_priority function (9 tests)
- Filter non-dict metadata entries in list_by_priority() methods
- Fix extension priority resolution to merge registered and unregistered
extensions into unified sorted list (unregistered get implicit priority 10)
- Add tests for extension priority resolution ordering (4 tests)
The key fix ensures unregistered extensions with implicit priority 10
correctly beat registered extensions with priority > 10, and vice versa.
Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.5 <noreply@anthropic.com>
* fix: DRY refactor and strengthen test assertions
- Extract _get_all_extensions_by_priority() helper in PresetResolver
to eliminate duplicated extension list construction
- Add priority=10 assertion to test_legacy_extension_without_priority_field
- Add priority=10 assertion to test_legacy_preset_without_priority_field
Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.5 <noreply@anthropic.com>
* fix: add isinstance(dict) checks for corrupted registry entries
Add defensive checks throughout CLI commands and manager methods
to handle cases where registry entries may be corrupted (non-dict
values). This prevents AttributeError when calling .get() on
non-dict metadata.
Locations fixed:
- __init__.py: preset/extension info, set-priority, enable/disable,
upgrade commands
- extensions.py: list_installed()
- presets.py: list_installed()
Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.5 <noreply@anthropic.com>
* fix: normalize priority display to match resolution behavior
Use normalize_priority() for all priority display in CLI commands
to ensure displayed values match actual resolution behavior when
registry data is corrupted/hand-edited.
Locations fixed:
- extensions.py: list_installed()
- presets.py: list_installed(), PresetResolver
- __init__.py: preset info, extension info, set-priority commands
Also added GraphQL query for unresolved PR comments to CLAUDE.md.
Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.5 <noreply@anthropic.com>
* fix: repair corrupted priority values in set-priority commands
Changed set-priority commands to check if the raw stored value is
already a valid int equal to the requested priority before skipping.
This ensures corrupted values (e.g., "high") get repaired even when
setting to the default priority (10).
Also removed CLAUDE.md that was accidentally added to the repo.
Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.5 <noreply@anthropic.com>
* fix: harden registry update methods against corrupted entries
- Normalize priority when restoring during extension update to prevent
propagating corrupted values (e.g., "high", 0, negative)
- Add isinstance(dict) checks in ExtensionRegistry.update() and
PresetRegistry.update() to handle corrupted entries (string/list)
that would cause TypeError on merge
Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.5 <noreply@anthropic.com>
* fix: use safe fallback for version in list_installed()
When registry entry is corrupted (non-dict), metadata becomes {} after
the isinstance check. Use metadata.get("version", manifest.version)
instead of metadata["version"] to avoid KeyError.
