Why use it?
It reduces the risk that project rules and the templates based on them drift apart.

Skill for Claude Code

Written for Claude Code: $ARGUMENTS substitution. Also seen: installed under .agents/ (shared by several agents).

This is alfredoperez/speckit-companion's own configuration. It tells Claude Code how to work on speckit-companion itself, so it is not a mod to install elsewhere. Copy it as a starting point and replace the rules that are about this project. Everything speckit-companion configures →

Token cost

What it costs to keep this loaded

Counted locally with the o200k_base tokenizer, which is exact for GPT models; Claude uses its own tokenizer and its counts differ. Treat this as one consistent yardstick across the catalogue rather than a bill. Prices are per million input tokens.

Security

Grade A, and why

speckit-constitution scanned grade A with 0 findings against 26 rules in 11 categories — prompt injection, anti-refusal, data exfiltration, privilege escalation, supply chain, agent snooping, system-prompt leakage, SSRF and excessive agency — measured 13d ago.

A static scan of the body, not an audit. Every finding is printed with the line that produced it so you can judge whether it matters here. A mod is markdown that instructs an agent; that is exactly why what it instructs is worth reading.

Nothing flagged

None of the 26 patterns this scan looks for appear in this file: no shell pipes, no recursive deletes, no credential paths, no hidden text, no instruction-override or anti-refusal phrasing, no agent-config snooping. That is not a guarantee, it is the absence of the things that are checkable.

Origin

This is a copy

91% identical to speckit-constitution — 5 lines differ, which has more behind it and is treated as the original. This page carries a canonical link to it rather than competing with it.

User Input

$ARGUMENTS

You MUST consider the user input before proceeding (if not empty).

Pre-Execution Checks

Check for extension hooks (before constitution update):

  • Check if .specify/extensions.yml exists in the project root.
  • If it exists, read it and look for entries under the hooks.before_constitution key
  • If the YAML cannot be parsed or is invalid, skip hook checking silently and continue normally
  • Filter out hooks where enabled is explicitly false. Treat hooks without an enabled field as enabled by default.
  • For each remaining hook, do not attempt to interpret or evaluate hook condition expressions:
    • If the hook has no condition field, or it is null/empty, treat the hook as executable
    • If the hook defines a non-empty condition, skip the hook and leave condition evaluation to the HookExecutor implementation
  • For each executable hook, output the following based on its optional flag:
    • Optional hook (optional: true):
      ## Extension Hooks
      
      **Optional Pre-Hook**: {extension}
      Command: `/{command}`
      Description: {description}
      
      Prompt: {prompt}
      To execute: `/{command}`
      
    • Mandatory hook (optional: false):
      ## Extension Hooks
      
      **Automatic Pre-Hook**: {extension}
      Executing: `/{command}`
      EXECUTE_COMMAND: {command}
      
      Wait for the result of the hook command before proceeding to the Outline.
      
  • If no hooks are registered or .specify/extensions.yml does not exist, skip silently

Outline

You are updating the project constitution at .specify/memory/constitution.md. This file is a TEMPLATE containing placeholder tokens in square brackets (e.g. [PROJECT_NAME], [PRINCIPLE_1_NAME]). Your job is to (a) collect/derive concrete values, (b) fill the template precisely, and (c) propagate any amendments across dependent artifacts.

Note: If .specify/memory/constitution.md does not exist yet, it should have been initialized from .specify/templates/constitution-template.md during project setup. If it's missing, copy the template first.

What this file has done since we first saw it

Hashed on every crawl. A supply-chain change to an agent config is a question of when, not whether, so the history is kept rather than the latest state alone.
