Key Features

This updates the existing reconcile entry from v1.2.1 to v1.3.1. Besides the version, the download URL and updated_at, the proposed entry adds the optional sha256; the requirements, command count, hook count and tags stay the same.

Reconcile is opt-in extension reconciliation that can run during or after delivery, as the docs merged in #4945 and #4948 describe. It records discoveries the team has accepted; the implementation is evidence for that decision, not the source of intent:

• Every run asks, before any edit, which drift items the team approves reconciling into the artifacts. Items left out are written nowhere, and the report recommends /speckit.converge for them. "Approve none" writes nothing.
• When the constitution says the project uses flow-forward, the run writes nothing, asks nothing, and recommends a new feature directory with /speckit.specify.
• Revision notes carry an Approved: line naming the approved items, so the decision stays next to the edits it allowed.
• An open converge task written against an entry the run amends is named first in the Next Step, so the team resolves it before /speckit.implement; the task itself is never edited.
• The Next Step routes new work back through /speckit.implement and /speckit.converge.

Optional sha256 of the release archive: 651537ba453f519b33c61ceb0c63d30bea04bd7fd81b83a4f7bdde86eb39adb5

Testing Details

Installed v1.3.1 from the download URL above into a fresh specify init project (Claude Code integration, sh scripts) on macOS. The install succeeded, the rendered skill carries no unresolved __SPECKIT_COMMAND_* tokens and no unrewritten relative script paths, the /speckit.specify and /speckit.converge references render in the agent's own form, both hooks register on after_implement and after_converge, and the installed tree contains only the extension.

Behaviour testing is fixture-based. The extension is a prompt, so it is tested by executing it against a fixture project of deliberate traps, with expectations committed before each round that grades them. For v1.3.1, eight cases ran against the release candidate (five existing cases re-run, plus new flow-forward, living-spec and open-converge-task cases). A review of the branch by five models led to fixes, after which the affected cases re-ran and two new re-run cases were added; all passed. Which cases ran against which commit, and the gaps still open, are in tests/fixture/BASELINE-v1.3.1.md. The previous version, v1.3.0, was also run by the author on a private project; v1.3.1 has been verified on the fixture and the fresh install above.

The extension executes no code of its own. It reads artifacts and calls the check-prerequisites.sh and resolve-template.sh scripts that Spec Kit already ships.

Example Usage

/speckit.reconcile.run specs/007-invoice-settings Backend exists, but the React screen is unreachable; need sidebar link and route
