v3.0.1

Corrects the v3 Architecture migration commands to use cross-platform Spec Kit command placeholders.

v3.0.0

Project Architecture is now managed by the Constitution stage as a single architecture.md artifact. The standalone generate and reverse commands are retired compatibility entrypoints.

v1.2.2

• Use CLI-compatible /speckit.arch.* command names.
• Add full forward and reverse workflows for all 4+1 architecture views and synthesis.
• Replace broad architecture commands with per-view generate/reverse commands.
• Add schema-backed architecture artifact contracts and readiness validators for Bash and PowerShell.
• Clarify command bootstrap boundaries, synthesis readiness checks, reverse repo-facts behavior, and source traceability expectations.

v1.2.1

What's Changed

• Replaced the broad architecture commands with ten per-view commands for scenario, logical, process, development, and physical views.
• Added forward and reverse workflows for each 4+1 view.
• Added a schema-backed architecture artifact contract at .specify/extensions/arch/schemas/architecture-artifacts.schema.json.
• Updated setup helpers to expose ARCH_SCHEMA_FILE and bootstrap the architecture memory set.
• Clarified synthesis readiness, repo-facts merge behavior, source traceability, and command/template responsibility boundaries.
• Fixed command IDs to use Spec Kit CLI-compatible names such as speckit.arch.scenario-generate and speckit.arch.scenario-reverse.

Installation

specify extension add arch --from https://github.com/bigsmartben/spec-kit-arch/archive/refs/tags/v1.2.1.zip

Validation

• Release ZIP install verified successfully.
• CLI lists all 10 architecture commands.
• PowerShell setup helper emits ARCH_SCHEMA_FILE.
• Git Bash contract test passed.

Note

Do not use v1.2.0; it is deprecated because its command IDs fail Spec Kit CLI validation.

v1.2.0 (deprecated)

This tag is kept for traceability but should not be used.

v1.2.0 introduced the per-view architecture commands, but release ZIP validation found that the command IDs used four-part names such as speckit.arch.scenario.generate. Spec Kit CLI requires the speckit.{extension}.{command} shape, so installation from this tag fails validation.

Use v1.2.1 instead.

v1.1.0

Changelog

Unreleased

• Add /speckit.arch.reverse for repo-facts-first reverse generation of architecture artifacts from ordinary historical repositories.
• Teach /speckit.arch.reverse to consume optional .specify/memory/repository-first/ dependency matrices and module invocation specs as evidence for development-view governance.
• Add the arch-governance preset to wrap only the core /speckit.plan workflow with architecture SSOT grounding.
• Keep /speckit.arch.generate independent from core workflow commands by removing downstream planning language from architecture artifacts.

v1.0.0

• Publish the 4+1 architecture workflow as an external Spec Kit extension.
• Provide /speckit.arch.generate with Bash and PowerShell setup helpers.
• Include architecture synthesis, scenario, logical, process, development, and physical view templates.
