Key Features

• Centralize shared rules as reusable fragments in a registry (local directory or git repo)
• Select fragments per project: mandatory, recommended, and optional
• Compose a final constitution by assembling selected fragments + project-specific rules
• Track changes: detect when fragments are modified locally vs. updated in the registry
• Support monorepos: sub-constitutions scope rules to specific packages

Testing Checklist

• Extension installs successfully via download URL
• All commands execute without errors
• Documentation is complete and accurate
• No security vulnerabilities identified
• Tested on at least one real project

Submission Requirements

• Valid extension.yml manifest included
• README.md with installation and usage instructions
• LICENSE file included
• GitHub release created with version tag
• All command files exist and are properly formatted
• Extension ID follows naming conventions (lowercase-with-hyphens)

Testing Details

Tested on:

• macOS 26 with Spec Kit v0.12.0
• Linux Ubuntu 24 with Spec Kit v0.12.0

Test project: local basic NextJs app (front + back)

Test scenarios:

1. Installed extension

specify extension add charter --from https://github.com/Fyloss/spec-kit-charter/archive/refs/tags/v0.3.1.zip

2. Configured settings

/speckit.charter.config

• Pick a registry location
• Select constitution fragments

Output: Generated config.yml + state.yml files in .specify/charter

3. Run composition
   /speckit.charter.compose
   Output: new .specify/memory/constitution.md file with selected fragments (using /speckit.constitution command to preserve compatibility with Spec kit hooks and metadata)

4. Verified outputs
   .specify/memory/constitution.md now have all selected fragments.

Example Usage

#### 1. Set Up a Registry

Create a fragment registry (local directory or git repo):

.charter/
├── manifest.yml
├── fragments/
│   ├── global/
│   │   ├── compliance.md
│   │   └── code-quality.md
│   └── languages/
│       └── typescript/
│           └── standards.md
└── sub-constitutions/
    ├── package-auth.md
    └── package-api.md


Create `manifest.yml`:


version: 1
name: "My Organization Charter Registry"
mandatory_fragments:
  - "global/compliance"
recommended_fragments:
  - "global/code-quality"


You can skip step 2 entirely. If no configuration exists yet, running
`/speckit.charter.compose` directly will perform the configuration inline:

#### Compose the constitution (express mode)

/speckit.charter.compose


The combined flow:

1. **Asks for the registry value** (proposing the current/default `.charter`) —
   first input
2. Shows the fragment list and asks for your **selection** — second input
3. Displays the composition summary (no confirmation prompt)
4. Proceeds automatically to generate the constitution

### Other commands

| Command | Description |
|---------|-------------|
| `/speckit.charter.compose update` | Update all fragments from registry |
| `/speckit.charter.compose update <name>` | Update a single fragment |
| `/speckit.charter.add <name>` | Add a new fragment from the registry |
| `/speckit.charter.remove <name>` | Remove a fragment from the composition |
| `/speckit.charter.restore` | Restore constitution to last backup |
