| Azure DevOps Integration | Sync user stories and tasks to Azure DevOps work items using OAuth authentication | [spec-kit-azure-devops](https://github.com/pragya247/spec-kit-azure-devops) |
| Cleanup Extension | Post-implementation quality gate that reviews changes, fixes small issues (scout rule), creates tasks for medium issues, and generates analysis for large issues | [spec-kit-cleanup](https://github.com/dsrednicki/spec-kit-cleanup) |
| Cognitive Squad | Multi-agent cognitive system with Triadic Model: understanding, internalization, application — with quality gates, backpropagation verification, and self-healing | [cognitive-squad](https://github.com/Testimonial/cognitive-squad) |
| Conduct Extension | Orchestrates spec-kit phases via sub-agent delegation to reduce context pollution. | [spec-kit-conduct-ext](https://github.com/twbrandon7/spec-kit-conduct-ext) |
| DocGuard — CDD Enforcement | Canonical-Driven Development enforcement. Validates, scores, and traces project documentation with automated checks, AI-driven workflows, and spec-kit hooks. Zero NPM runtime dependencies. | [spec-kit-docguard](https://github.com/raccioly/docguard) |
