chore: bump version to 0.3.0

feat(presets): Pluggable preset system with catalog, resolver, and skills propagation (#1787 )
* Initial plan * feat(templates): add pluggable template system with packs, catalog, resolver, and CLI commands Co-authored-by: mnriem <15701806+mnriem@users.noreply.github.com> * test(templates): add comprehensive unit tests for template pack system Co-authored-by: mnriem <15701806+mnriem@users.noreply.github.com> * feat(presets): pluggable preset system with template/command overrides, catalog, and resolver - Rename 'template packs' to 'presets' to avoid naming collision with core templates - PresetManifest, PresetRegistry, PresetManager, PresetCatalog, PresetResolver in presets.py - Extract CommandRegistrar to agents.py as shared infrastructure - CLI: specify preset list/add/remove/search/resolve/info - CLI: specify preset catalog list/add/remove - --preset option on specify init - Priority-based preset stacking (--priority, lower = higher precedence) - Command overrides registered into all detected agent directories (17+ agents) - Extension command safety: skip registration if target extension not installed - Multi-catalog support: env var, project config, user config, built-in defaults - resolve_template() / Resolve-Template in bash/PowerShell scripts - Self-test preset: overrides all 6 core templates + 1 command - Scaffold with 4 examples: core/extension template and command overrides - Preset catalog (catalog.json, catalog.community.json) - Documentation: README.md, ARCHITECTURE.md, PUBLISHING.md - 110 preset tests, 253 total tests passing * feat(presets): propagate command overrides to skills via init-options - Add save_init_options() / load_init_options() helpers that persist CLI flags from 'specify init' to .specify/init-options.json - PresetManager._register_skills() overwrites SKILL.md files when --ai-skills was used during init and corresponding skill dirs exist - PresetManager._unregister_skills() restores core template content on preset removal - registered_skills stored in preset registry metadata - 8 new tests covering skill override, skip conditions, and restore * fix: address PR check failures (ruff F541, CodeQL URL substring) - Remove extraneous f-prefix from two f-strings without placeholders - Replace substring URL check in test with startswith/endswith assertions to satisfy CodeQL incomplete URL substring sanitization rule * fix: address Copilot PR review comments - Move save_init_options() before preset install so skills propagation works during 'specify init --preset --ai-skills' - Clean up downloaded ZIP after successful preset install during init - Validate --from URL scheme (require HTTPS, HTTP only for localhost) - Expose unregister_commands() on extensions.py CommandRegistrar wrapper instead of reaching into private _registrar field - Use _get_merged_packs() for search() and get_pack_info() so all active catalogs are searched, not just the highest-priority one - Fix fetch_catalog() cache to verify cached URL matches current URL - Fix PresetResolver: script resolution uses .sh extension, consistent file extensions throughout resolve(), and resolve_with_source() delegates to resolve() to honor template_type parameter - Fix bash common.sh: fall through to directory scan when python3 returns empty preset list - Fix PowerShell Resolve-Template: filter out dot-folders and sort extensions deterministically * fix: narrow empty except blocks and add explanatory comments * fix: address Copilot PR review comments (round 2) - Fix init --preset error masking: distinguish "not found" from real errors - Fix bash resolve_template: skip hidden dirs in extensions (match Python/PS) - Fix temp dir leaks in tests: use temp_dir fixture instead of mkdtemp - Fix self-test catalog entry: add note that it's local-only (no download_url) - Fix Windows path issue in resolve_with_source: use Path.relative_to() - Fix skill restore path: use project's .specify/templates/commands/ not source tree - Add encoding="utf-8" to all file read/write in agents.py - Update test to set up core command templates for skill restoration * fix: remove self-test from catalog.json (local-only preset) * fix: address Copilot PR review comments (round 3) - Fix PS Resolve-Template fallback to skip dot-prefixed dirs (.cache) - Rename _catalog to _catalog_name for consistency with extension system - Enforce install_allowed policy in CLI preset add and download_pack() - Fix shell injection: pass registry path via env var instead of string interpolation * fix: correct PresetError docstring from template to preset * Removed CHANGELOG requirement * Applying review recommendations * Applying review recommendations * Applying review recommendations * Applying review recommendations --------- Co-authored-by: copilot-swe-agent[bot] <198982749+Copilot@users.noreply.github.com> Co-authored-by: mnriem <15701806+mnriem@users.noreply.github.com>

+# Release Process
+
+This document describes the automated release process for Spec Kit.
+
+## Overview
+
+The release process is split into two workflows to ensure version consistency:
+
+1. **Release Trigger Workflow** (`release-trigger.yml`) - Manages versioning and triggers release
+2. **Release Workflow** (`release.yml`) - Builds and publishes artifacts
+
+This separation ensures that git tags always point to commits with the correct version in `pyproject.toml`.
+
+## Before Creating a Release
+
+**Important**: Write clear, descriptive commit messages!
+
+### How CHANGELOG.md Works
+
+The CHANGELOG is **automatically generated** from your git commit messages:
+
+1. **During Development**: Write clear, descriptive commit messages:
+   ```bash
+   git commit -m "feat: Add new authentication feature"
+   git commit -m "fix: Resolve timeout issue in API client (#123)"
+   git commit -m "docs: Update installation instructions"
+   ```
+
+2. **When Releasing**: The release trigger workflow automatically:
+   - Finds all commits since the last release tag
+   - Formats them as changelog entries
+   - Inserts them into CHANGELOG.md
+   - Commits the updated changelog before creating the new tag
+
+### Commit Message Best Practices
+
+Good commit messages make good changelogs:
+- **Be descriptive**: "Add user authentication" not "Update files"
+- **Reference issues/PRs**: Include `(#123)` for automated linking
+- **Use conventional commits** (optional): `feat:`, `fix:`, `docs:`, `chore:`
+- **Keep it concise**: One line is ideal, details go in commit body
+
+**Example commits that become good changelog entries:**
+```
+fix: prepend YAML frontmatter to Cursor .mdc files (#1699)
+feat: add generic agent support with customizable command directories (#1639)
+docs: document dual-catalog system for extensions (#1689)
+```
+
+## Creating a Release
+
+### Option 1: Auto-Increment (Recommended for patches)
+
+1. Go to **Actions** → **Release Trigger**
+2. Click **Run workflow**
+3. Leave the version field **empty**
+4. Click **Run workflow**
+
+The workflow will:
+- Auto-increment the patch version (e.g., `0.1.10` → `0.1.11`)
+- Update `pyproject.toml`
+- Update `CHANGELOG.md` by adding a new section for the release based on commits since the last tag
+- Commit changes to a `chore/release-vX.Y.Z` branch
+- Create and push the git tag from that branch
+- Open a PR to merge the version bump into `main`
+- Trigger the release workflow automatically via the tag push
+
+### Option 2: Manual Version (For major/minor bumps)
+
+1. Go to **Actions** → **Release Trigger**
+2. Click **Run workflow**
+3. Enter the desired version (e.g., `0.2.0` or `v0.2.0`)
+4. Click **Run workflow**
+
+The workflow will:
+- Use your specified version
+- Update `pyproject.toml`
+- Update `CHANGELOG.md` by adding a new section for the release based on commits since the last tag
+- Commit changes to a `chore/release-vX.Y.Z` branch
+- Create and push the git tag from that branch
+- Open a PR to merge the version bump into `main`
+- Trigger the release workflow automatically via the tag push
+
+## What Happens Next
+
+Once the release trigger workflow completes:
+
+1. A `chore/release-vX.Y.Z` branch is pushed with the version bump commit
+2. The git tag is pushed, pointing to that commit
+3. The **Release Workflow** is automatically triggered by the tag push
+4. Release artifacts are built for all supported agents
+5. A GitHub Release is created with all assets
+6. A PR is opened to merge the version bump branch into `main`
+
+> **Note**: Merge the auto-opened PR after the release is published to keep `main` in sync.
+
+## Workflow Details
+
+### Release Trigger Workflow
+
+**File**: `.github/workflows/release-trigger.yml`
+
+**Trigger**: Manual (`workflow_dispatch`)
+
+**Permissions Required**: `contents: write`
+
+**Steps**:
+1. Checkout repository
+2. Determine version (manual or auto-increment)
+3. Check if tag already exists (prevents duplicates)
+4. Create `chore/release-vX.Y.Z` branch
+5. Update `pyproject.toml`
+6. Update `CHANGELOG.md` from git commits
+7. Commit changes
+8. Push branch and tag
+9. Open PR to merge version bump into `main`
+
+### Release Workflow
+
+**File**: `.github/workflows/release.yml`
+
+**Trigger**: Tag push (`v*`)
+
+**Permissions Required**: `contents: write`
+
+**Steps**:
+1. Checkout repository at tag
+2. Extract version from tag name
+3. Check if release already exists
+4. Build release package variants (all agents × shell/powershell)
+5. Generate release notes from commits
+6. Create GitHub Release with all assets
+
+## Version Constraints
+
+- Tags must follow format: `v{MAJOR}.{MINOR}.{PATCH}`
+- Example valid versions: `v0.1.11`, `v0.2.0`, `v1.0.0`
+- Auto-increment only bumps patch version
+- Cannot create duplicate tags (workflow will fail)
+
+## Benefits of This Approach
+
+✅ **Version Consistency**: Git tags point to commits with matching `pyproject.toml` version
+
+✅ **Single Source of Truth**: Version set once, used everywhere
+
+✅ **Prevents Drift**: No more manual version synchronization needed
+
+✅ **Clean Separation**: Versioning logic separate from artifact building
+
+✅ **Flexibility**: Supports both auto-increment and manual versioning
+
+## Troubleshooting
+
+### No Commits Since Last Release
+
+If you run the release trigger workflow when there are no new commits since the last tag:
+- The workflow will still succeed
+- The CHANGELOG will show "- Initial release" if it's the first release
+- Or it will be empty if there are no commits
+- Consider adding meaningful commits before releasing
+
+**Best Practice**: Use descriptive commit messages - they become your changelog!
+
+### Tag Already Exists
+
+If you see "Error: Tag vX.Y.Z already exists!", you need to:
+- Choose a different version number, or
+- Delete the existing tag if it was created in error
+
+### Release Workflow Didn't Trigger
+
+Check that:
+- The release trigger workflow completed successfully
+- The tag was pushed (check repository tags)
+- The release workflow is enabled in Actions settings
+
+### Version Mismatch
+
+If `pyproject.toml` doesn't match the latest tag:
+- Run the release trigger workflow to sync versions
+- Or manually update `pyproject.toml` and push changes before running the release trigger
+
+## Legacy Behavior (Pre-v0.1.10)
+
+Before this change, the release workflow:
+- Created tags automatically on main branch pushes
+- Updated `pyproject.toml` AFTER creating the tag
+- Resulted in tags pointing to commits with outdated versions
+
+This has been fixed in v0.1.10+.

+## [0.1.14] - 2026-03-09
+
+### Added
+
+- feat: add Tabnine CLI agent support
+- **Multi-Catalog Support (#1707)**: Extension catalog system now supports multiple active catalogs simultaneously via a catalog stack
+  - New `specify extension catalog list` command lists all active catalogs with name, URL, priority, and `install_allowed` status
+  - New `specify extension catalog add` and `specify extension catalog remove` commands for project-scoped catalog management
+  - Default built-in stack includes `catalog.json` (default, installable) and `catalog.community.json` (community, discovery only) — community extensions are now surfaced in search results out of the box
+  - `specify extension search` aggregates results across all active catalogs, annotating each result with source catalog
+  - `specify extension add` enforces `install_allowed` policy — extensions from discovery-only catalogs cannot be installed directly
+  - Project-level `.specify/extension-catalogs.yml` and user-level `~/.specify/extension-catalogs.yml` config files supported, with project-level taking precedence
+  - `SPECKIT_CATALOG_URL` environment variable still works for backward compatibility (replaces full stack with single catalog)
+  - All catalog URLs require HTTPS (HTTP allowed for localhost development)
+  - New `CatalogEntry` dataclass in `extensions.py` for catalog stack representation
+  - Per-URL hash-based caching for non-default catalogs; legacy cache preserved for default catalog
+  - Higher-priority catalogs win on merge conflicts (same extension id in multiple catalogs)
+  - 13 new tests covering catalog stack resolution, merge conflicts, URL validation, and `install_allowed` enforcement
+  - Updated RFC, Extension User Guide, and Extension API Reference documentation

+
+### Fixed
+
+- **Copilot Extension Commands Not Visible**: Fixed extension commands not appearing in GitHub Copilot when installed via `specify extension add --dev`
+  - Changed Copilot file extension from `.md` to `.agent.md` in `CommandRegistrar.AGENT_CONFIGS` so Copilot recognizes agent files
+  - Added generation of companion `.prompt.md` files in `.github/prompts/` during extension command registration, matching the release packaging behavior
+  - Added cleanup of `.prompt.md` companion files when removing extensions via `specify extension remove`
+- Fixed a syntax regression in `src/specify_cli/__init__.py` in `_build_ai_assistant_help()` that broke `ruff` and `pytest` collection in CI.

+
+
+## [0.1.10] - 2026-03-02
+
+### Fixed
+
+- **Version Sync Issue (#1721)**: Fixed version mismatch between `pyproject.toml` and git release tags
+  - Split release process into two workflows: `release-trigger.yml` for version management and `release.yml` for artifact building
+  - Version bump now happens BEFORE tag creation, ensuring tags point to commits with correct version
+  - Supports both manual version specification and auto-increment (patch version)
+  - Git tags now accurately reflect the version in `pyproject.toml` at that commit
+  - Prevents confusion when installing from source

+## Excluding Files with `.extensionignore`
+
+Extension authors can create a `.extensionignore` file in the extension root to exclude files and folders from being copied when a user installs the extension with `specify extension add`. This is useful for keeping development-only files (tests, CI configs, docs source, etc.) out of the installed copy.
+
+### Format
+
+The file uses `.gitignore`-compatible patterns (one per line), powered by the [`pathspec`](https://pypi.org/project/pathspec/) library:
+
+- Blank lines are ignored
+- Lines starting with `#` are comments
+- `*` matches anything **except** `/` (does not cross directory boundaries)
+- `**` matches zero or more directories (e.g., `docs/**/*.draft.md`)
+- `?` matches any single character except `/`
+- A trailing `/` restricts a pattern to directories only
+- Patterns containing `/` (other than a trailing slash) are anchored to the extension root
+- Patterns without `/` match at any depth in the tree
+- `!` negates a previously excluded pattern (re-includes a file)
+- Backslashes in patterns are normalised to forward slashes for cross-platform compatibility
+- The `.extensionignore` file itself is always excluded automatically
+
+### Example
+
+```gitignore
+# .extensionignore
+
+# Development files
+tests/
+.github/
+.gitignore
+
+# Build artifacts
+__pycache__/
+*.pyc
+dist/
+
+# Documentation source (keep only the built README)
+docs/
+CONTRIBUTING.md
+```
+
+### Pattern Matching
+
+| Pattern | Matches | Does NOT match |
+|---------|---------|----------------|
+| `*.pyc` | Any `.pyc` file in any directory | — |
+| `tests/` | The `tests` directory (and all its contents) | A file named `tests` |
+| `docs/*.draft.md` | `docs/api.draft.md` (directly inside `docs/`) | `docs/sub/api.draft.md` (nested) |
+| `.env` | The `.env` file at any level | — |
+| `!README.md` | Re-includes `README.md` even if matched by an earlier pattern | — |
+| `docs/**/*.draft.md` | `docs/api.draft.md`, `docs/sub/api.draft.md` | — |
+
+### Unsupported Features
+
+The following `.gitignore` features are **not applicable** in this context:
+
+- **Multiple `.extensionignore` files**: Only a single file at the extension root is supported (`.gitignore` supports files in subdirectories)
+- **`$GIT_DIR/info/exclude` and `core.excludesFile`**: These are Git-specific and have no equivalent here
+- **Negation inside excluded directories**: Because file copying uses `shutil.copytree`, excluding a directory prevents recursion into it entirely. A negation pattern cannot re-include a file inside a directory that was itself excluded. For example, the combination `tests/` followed by `!tests/important.py` will **not** preserve `tests/important.py` — the `tests/` directory is skipped at the root level and its contents are never evaluated. To work around this, exclude the directory's contents individually instead of the directory itself (e.g., `tests/*.pyc` and `tests/.cache/` rather than `tests/`).
