+## 🎨 Community Presets
+
+The following community-contributed presets customize how Spec Kit behaves — overriding templates, commands, and terminology without changing any tooling. Presets are available in [`catalog.community.json`](presets/catalog.community.json):
+
+| Preset | Purpose | Provides | Requires | URL |
+|--------|---------|----------|----------|-----|
+| AIDE In-Place Migration | Adapts the AIDE extension workflow for in-place technology migrations (X → Y pattern) — adds migration objectives, verification gates, knowledge documents, and behavioral equivalence criteria | 2 templates, 8 commands | AIDE extension | [spec-kit-presets](https://github.com/mnriem/spec-kit-presets) |
+| Pirate Speak (Full) | Transforms all Spec Kit output into pirate speak — specs become "Voyage Manifests", plans become "Battle Plans", tasks become "Crew Assignments" | 6 templates, 9 commands | — | [spec-kit-presets](https://github.com/mnriem/spec-kit-presets) |
+
+To build and publish your own preset, see the [Presets Publishing Guide](presets/PUBLISHING.md).
