Manfred Riem 9f14dfc6c6 docs: move community presets table to docs site, add missing entries (#2341)
* docs: move community presets table to docs site, add missing entries

- Move the full community presets table from README.md to the docs site
  at docs/community/presets.md, replacing the README section with a
  short link (matching the pattern used for Walkthroughs and Friends).
- Add missing Jira Issue Tracking and Screenwriting rows to the docs
  table so it reflects all entries in catalog.community.json.

* docs(presets): add docs site table step to publishing guide

Add step to update docs/community/presets.md when submitting a
community preset, and add corresponding PR checklist item. Matches
the pattern used in the extensions publishing guide.

* Clarify alphabetical sort key in presets publishing guide

Specify that the docs table should be sorted by preset name (the first
column), disambiguating from the catalog JSON which sorts by preset ID.

* Potential fix for pull request finding

Community Presets

Note

Community presets are independently created and maintained by their respective authors. GitHub and the Spec Kit maintainers may review pull requests that add entries to the community catalog for formatting, catalog structure, or policy compliance, but they do not review, audit, endorse, or support the preset code itself. Review preset source code before installation and use at your own discretion.

The following community-contributed presets customize how Spec Kit behaves — overriding templates, commands, and terminology without changing any tooling. Presets are available in catalog.community.json:

Preset Purpose Provides Requires URL
AIDE In-Place Migration Adapts the AIDE extension workflow for in-place technology migrations (X → Y pattern) — adds migration objectives, verification gates, knowledge documents, and behavioral equivalence criteria 2 templates, 8 commands AIDE extension spec-kit-presets
