+## [0.1.0] - 2026-01-28
+
+### Added
+
+- **Extension System**: Introduced modular extension architecture for Spec Kit
+  - Extensions are self-contained packages that add commands and functionality without bloating core
+  - Extension manifest schema (`extension.yml`) with validation
+  - Extension registry (`.specify/extensions/.registry`) for tracking installed extensions
+  - Extension manager module (`src/specify_cli/extensions.py`) for installation/removal
+  - New CLI commands:
+    - `specify extension list` - List installed extensions
+    - `specify extension add` - Install extension from local directory or URL
+    - `specify extension remove` - Uninstall extension
+    - `specify extension search` - Search extension catalog
+    - `specify extension info` - Show detailed extension information
+  - Semantic versioning compatibility checks
+  - Support for extension configuration files
+  - Command registration system for AI agents (Claude support initially)
+  - Added dependencies: `pyyaml>=6.0`, `packaging>=23.0`
+
+- **Extension Catalog**: Extension discovery and distribution system
+  - Central catalog (`extensions/catalog.json`) for published extensions
+  - Extension catalog manager (`ExtensionCatalog` class) with:
+    - Catalog fetching from GitHub
+    - 1-hour local caching for performance
+    - Search by query, tag, author, or verification status
+    - Extension info retrieval
+  - Catalog cache stored in `.specify/extensions/.cache/`
+  - Search and info commands with rich console output
+  - Added 9 catalog-specific unit tests (100% pass rate)
+
+- **Jira Extension**: First official extension for Jira integration
+  - Extension ID: `jira`
+  - Version: 1.0.0
+  - Commands:
+    - `/speckit.jira.specstoissues` - Create Jira hierarchy from spec and tasks
+    - `/speckit.jira.discover-fields` - Discover Jira custom fields
+    - `/speckit.jira.sync-status` - Sync task completion status
+  - Comprehensive documentation (README, usage guide, examples)
+  - MIT licensed
+
+- **Hook System**: Extension lifecycle hooks for automation
+  - `HookExecutor` class for managing extension hooks
+  - Hooks registered in `.specify/extensions.yml`
+  - Hook registration during extension installation
+  - Hook unregistration during extension removal
+  - Support for optional and mandatory hooks
+  - Hook execution messages for AI agent integration
+  - Condition support for conditional hook execution (placeholder)
+
+- **Extension Management**: Advanced extension management commands
+  - `specify extension update` - Check and update extensions to latest version
+  - `specify extension enable` - Enable a disabled extension
+  - `specify extension disable` - Disable extension without removing it
+  - Version comparison with catalog
+  - Update notifications
+  - Preserve configuration during updates
+
+- **Multi-Agent Support**: Extensions now work with all supported AI agents (Phase 6)
+  - Automatic detection and registration for all agents in project
+  - Support for 16+ AI agents (Claude, Gemini, Copilot, Cursor, Qwen, and more)
+  - Agent-specific command formats (Markdown and TOML)
+  - Automatic argument placeholder conversion ($ARGUMENTS → {{args}})
+  - Commands registered for all detected agents during installation
+  - Multi-agent command unregistration on extension removal
+  - `CommandRegistrar.register_commands_for_agent()` method
+  - `CommandRegistrar.register_commands_for_all_agents()` method
+
+- **Configuration Layers**: Full configuration cascade system (Phase 6)
+  - **Layer 1**: Defaults from extension manifest (`extension.yml`)
+  - **Layer 2**: Project config (`.specify/extensions/{ext-id}/{ext-id}-config.yml`)
+  - **Layer 3**: Local config (`.specify/extensions/{ext-id}/local-config.yml`, gitignored)
+  - **Layer 4**: Environment variables (`SPECKIT_{EXT_ID}_{KEY}` pattern)
+  - Recursive config merging with proper precedence
+  - `ConfigManager` class for programmatic config access
+  - `get_config()`, `get_value()`, `has_value()` methods
+  - Support for nested configuration paths with dot-notation
+
+- **Hook Condition Evaluation**: Smart hook execution based on runtime conditions (Phase 6)
+  - Config conditions: `config.key.path is set`, `config.key == 'value'`, `config.key != 'value'`
+  - Environment conditions: `env.VAR is set`, `env.VAR == 'value'`, `env.VAR != 'value'`
+  - Automatic filtering of hooks based on condition evaluation
+  - Safe fallback behavior on evaluation errors
+  - Case-insensitive pattern matching
+
+- **Hook Integration**: Agent-level hook checking and execution (Phase 6)
+  - `check_hooks_for_event()` method for AI agents to query hooks after core commands
+  - Condition-aware hook filtering before execution
+  - `enable_hooks()` and `disable_hooks()` methods per extension
+  - Formatted hook messages for agent display
+  - `execute_hook()` method for hook execution information
+
+- **Documentation Suite**: Comprehensive documentation for users and developers
+  - **EXTENSION-USER-GUIDE.md**: Complete user guide with installation, usage, configuration, and troubleshooting
+  - **EXTENSION-API-REFERENCE.md**: Technical API reference with manifest schema, Python API, and CLI commands
+  - **EXTENSION-PUBLISHING-GUIDE.md**: Publishing guide for extension authors
+  - **RFC-EXTENSION-SYSTEM.md**: Extension architecture design document
+
+- **Extension Template**: Starter template in `extensions/template/` for creating new extensions
+  - Fully commented `extension.yml` manifest template
+  - Example command file with detailed explanations
+  - Configuration template with all options
+  - Complete project structure (README, LICENSE, CHANGELOG, .gitignore)
+  - EXAMPLE-README.md showing final documentation format
+
+- **Unit Tests**: Comprehensive test suite with 39 tests covering all extension system components
+  - Test coverage: 83% of extension module code
+  - Test dependencies: `pytest>=7.0`, `pytest-cov>=4.0`
+  - Configured pytest in `pyproject.toml`
+
+### Changed

+- Extension context automatically injected:
+
+  ```markdown
+  <!-- Extension: {extension-id} -->
+  <!-- Config: .specify/extensions/{extension-id}/ -->
+  ```
+
+---
+
+## Configuration Schema
+
+### Extension Config File
+
+**File**: `.specify/extensions/{extension-id}/{extension-id}-config.yml`
+
+Extensions define their own config schema. Common patterns:
+
+```yaml
+# Connection settings
+connection:
+  url: string
+  api_key: string
+
+# Project settings
+project:
+  key: string
+  workspace: string
+
+# Feature flags
+features:
+  enabled: boolean
+  auto_sync: boolean
+
+# Defaults
+defaults:
+  labels: [string]
+  assignee: string
+
+# Custom fields
+field_mappings:
+  internal_name: "external_field_id"
+```
+
+### Config Layers
+
+1. **Extension Defaults** (from `extension.yml` `defaults` section)
+2. **Project Config** (`{extension-id}-config.yml`)
+3. **Local Override** (`{extension-id}-config.local.yml`, gitignored)
+4. **Environment Variables** (`SPECKIT_{EXTENSION}_*`)
+
+### Environment Variable Pattern
+
+Format: `SPECKIT_{EXTENSION}_{KEY}`
+
+Examples:
+
+- `SPECKIT_JIRA_PROJECT_KEY`
+- `SPECKIT_LINEAR_API_KEY`
+- `SPECKIT_GITHUB_TOKEN`
+
+---
+
+## Hook System
+
+### Hook Definition
+
+**In extension.yml**:
+
+```yaml
+hooks:
+  after_tasks:
+    command: "speckit.jira.specstoissues"
+    optional: true
+    prompt: "Create Jira issues from tasks?"
+    description: "Automatically create Jira hierarchy"
+    condition: null
+```
+
+### Hook Events
+
+Standard events (defined by core):
+
+- `after_tasks` - After task generation
+- `after_implement` - After implementation
+- `before_commit` - Before git commit
+- `after_commit` - After git commit
+
+### Hook Configuration
+
+**In `.specify/extensions.yml`**:
+
+```yaml
+hooks:
+  after_tasks:
+    - extension: jira
+      command: speckit.jira.specstoissues
+      enabled: true
+      optional: true
+      prompt: "Create Jira issues from tasks?"
+      description: "..."
+      condition: null
+```
+
+### Hook Message Format
+
+```markdown
+## Extension Hooks
+
+**Optional Hook**: {extension}
+Command: `/{command}`
+Description: {description}
+
+Prompt: {prompt}
+To execute: `/{command}`
+```
+
+Or for mandatory hooks:
+
+```markdown
+**Automatic Hook**: {extension}
+Executing: `/{command}`
+EXECUTE_COMMAND: {command}
+```

+
+## Command File Format
+
+### Frontmatter (YAML)
+
+```yaml
+---
+description: "Command description"          # Required
+tools:                                      # Optional
+  - 'tool-name/function'
+scripts:                                    # Optional
+  sh: ../../scripts/bash/helper.sh
+  ps: ../../scripts/powershell/helper.ps1
+---
+```
+
+### Body (Markdown)
+
+Use standard Markdown with special placeholders:
+
+- `$ARGUMENTS`: User-provided arguments
+- `{SCRIPT}`: Replaced with script path during registration
+
+**Example**:
+
+````markdown
+## Steps
+
+1. Parse arguments
+2. Execute logic
+
+```bash
+args="$ARGUMENTS"
+echo "Running with args: $args"
+```
+````
+
+### Script Path Rewriting
+
+Extension commands use relative paths that get rewritten during registration:
+
+**In extension**:
+
+```yaml
+scripts:
+  sh: ../../scripts/bash/helper.sh
+```
+
+**After registration**:
+
+```yaml
+scripts:
+  sh: .specify/scripts/bash/helper.sh
+```
+
+This allows scripts to reference core spec-kit scripts.
+
+---
+
+## Configuration Files
+
+### Config Template
+
+**File**: `my-ext-config.template.yml`
+
+```yaml
+# My Extension Configuration
+# Copy this to my-ext-config.yml and customize
+
+# Example configuration
+api:
+  endpoint: "https://api.example.com"
+  timeout: 30
+
+features:
+  feature_a: true
+  feature_b: false
+
+credentials:
+  # DO NOT commit credentials!
+  # Use environment variables instead
+  api_key: "${MY_EXT_API_KEY}"
+```
+
+### Config Loading
+
+In your command, load config with layered precedence:
+
+1. Extension defaults (`extension.yml` → `defaults`)
+2. Project config (`.specify/extensions/my-ext/my-ext-config.yml`)
+3. Local overrides (`.specify/extensions/my-ext/my-ext-config.local.yml` - gitignored)
+4. Environment variables (`SPECKIT_MY_EXT_*`)
+
+**Example loading script**:
+
+```bash
+#!/usr/bin/env bash
+EXT_DIR=".specify/extensions/my-ext"
+
+# Load and merge config
+config=$(yq eval '.' "$EXT_DIR/my-ext-config.yml" -o=json)
+
+# Apply env overrides
+if [ -n "${SPECKIT_MY_EXT_API_KEY:-}" ]; then
+  config=$(echo "$config" | jq ".api.api_key = \"$SPECKIT_MY_EXT_API_KEY\"")
+fi
+
+echo "$config"
+```
+
+---
+
+## Validation Rules
+
+### Extension ID
+
+- **Pattern**: `^[a-z0-9-]+$`
+- **Valid**: `my-ext`, `tool-123`, `awesome-plugin`
+- **Invalid**: `MyExt` (uppercase), `my_ext` (underscore), `my ext` (space)
+
+### Extension Version
+
+- **Format**: Semantic versioning (MAJOR.MINOR.PATCH)
+- **Valid**: `1.0.0`, `0.1.0`, `2.5.3`
+- **Invalid**: `1.0`, `v1.0.0`, `1.0.0-beta`
+

+- **Valid**: `commands/hello.md`, `commands/subdir/cmd.md`
+- **Invalid**: `/absolute/path.md`, `../outside.md`
+
+---
+
+## Testing Extensions
+
+### Manual Testing
+
+1. **Create test extension**
+2. **Install locally**:
+
+   ```bash
+   specify extension add --dev /path/to/extension
+   ```
+
+3. **Verify installation**:
+
+   ```bash
+   specify extension list
+   ```
+
+4. **Test commands** with your AI agent
+5. **Check command registration**:
+
+   ```bash
+   ls .claude/commands/speckit.my-ext.*
+   ```
+
+6. **Remove extension**:
+
+   ```bash
+   specify extension remove my-ext
+   ```
+
+### Automated Testing
+
+Create tests for your extension:
+
+```python
+# tests/test_my_extension.py
+import pytest
+from pathlib import Path
+from specify_cli.extensions import ExtensionManifest
+
+def test_manifest_valid():
+    """Test extension manifest is valid."""
+    manifest = ExtensionManifest(Path("extension.yml"))
+    assert manifest.id == "my-ext"
+    assert len(manifest.commands) >= 1
+
+def test_command_files_exist():
+    """Test all command files exist."""
+    manifest = ExtensionManifest(Path("extension.yml"))
+    for cmd in manifest.commands:
+        cmd_file = Path(cmd["file"])
+        assert cmd_file.exists(), f"Command file not found: {cmd_file}"
+```
+
+---
+
+## Distribution
+
+### Option 1: GitHub Repository
+
+1. **Create repository**: `spec-kit-my-ext`
+2. **Add files**:
+
+   ```text
+   spec-kit-my-ext/
+   ├── extension.yml
+   ├── commands/
+   ├── scripts/
+   ├── docs/
+   ├── README.md
+   ├── LICENSE
+   └── CHANGELOG.md
+   ```
+
+3. **Create release**: Tag with version (e.g., `v1.0.0`)
+4. **Install from repo**:
+
+   ```bash
+   git clone https://github.com/you/spec-kit-my-ext
+   specify extension add --dev spec-kit-my-ext/
+   ```
+
+### Option 2: ZIP Archive (Future)
+
+Create ZIP archive and host on GitHub Releases:
+
+```bash
+zip -r spec-kit-my-ext-1.0.0.zip extension.yml commands/ scripts/ docs/
+```
+
+Users install with:
+
+```bash
+specify extension add --from https://github.com/.../spec-kit-my-ext-1.0.0.zip
+```
+
+### Option 3: Extension Catalog (Future)
+
+Submit to official catalog:
+
+1. **Fork** spec-kit repository
+2. **Add entry** to `extensions/catalog.json`
+3. **Create PR**
+4. **After merge**, users can install with:
+
+   ```bash
+   specify extension add my-ext  # No URL needed!
+   ```
+
+---
+
+## Best Practices
+
+### Naming Conventions
+
+- **Extension ID**: Use descriptive, hyphenated names (`jira-integration`, not `ji`)
+- **Commands**: Use verb-noun pattern (`create-issue`, `sync-status`)
+- **Config files**: Match extension ID (`jira-config.yml`)
+
+### Documentation
+
+- **README.md**: Overview, installation, usage
+- **CHANGELOG.md**: Version history
+- **docs/**: Detailed guides
+- **Command descriptions**: Clear, concise
+
+### Versioning
+
+- **Follow SemVer**: `MAJOR.MINOR.PATCH`
+- **MAJOR**: Breaking changes
+- **MINOR**: New features
+- **PATCH**: Bug fixes
+
+### Security
+
+- **Never commit secrets**: Use environment variables
+- **Validate input**: Sanitize user arguments
+- **Document permissions**: What files/APIs are accessed
+
+### Compatibility
+
+- **Specify version range**: Don't require exact version
+- **Test with multiple versions**: Ensure compatibility
+- **Graceful degradation**: Handle missing features
+
+---
+
+## Example Extensions
+
+### Minimal Extension
+
+Smallest possible extension:
+
+```yaml
+# extension.yml
+schema_version: "1.0"
+extension:
+  id: "minimal"
+  name: "Minimal Extension"
+  version: "1.0.0"
+  description: "Minimal example"
+requires:
+  speckit_version: ">=0.1.0"
+provides:
+  commands:
+    - name: "speckit.minimal.hello"
+      file: "commands/hello.md"
+```
+
+````markdown
+<!-- commands/hello.md -->
+---
+description: "Hello command"
+---
+
+# Hello World
+
+```bash
+echo "Hello, $ARGUMENTS!"
+```
+````
+
+### Extension with Config
+
+Extension using configuration:
+
+```yaml
+# extension.yml
+# ... metadata ...
+provides:
+  config:
+    - name: "tool-config.yml"
+      template: "tool-config.template.yml"
+      required: true
+```
+
+```yaml
+# tool-config.template.yml
+api_endpoint: "https://api.example.com"
+timeout: 30
+```
+
+````markdown
+<!-- commands/use-config.md -->
+# Use Config
+
+Load config:
+```bash
+config_file=".specify/extensions/tool/tool-config.yml"
+endpoint=$(yq eval '.api_endpoint' "$config_file")
+echo "Using endpoint: $endpoint"
+```
+````
+
+### Extension with Hooks
+
+Extension that runs automatically:
+
+```yaml
+# extension.yml
+hooks:
+  after_tasks:
+    command: "speckit.auto.analyze"
+    optional: false  # Always run
+    description: "Analyze tasks after generation"
+```
+
+---
+
+## Troubleshooting
+
+### Extension won't install
+
+**Error**: `Invalid extension ID`
+
+- **Fix**: Use lowercase, alphanumeric + hyphens only
+
+**Error**: `Extension requires spec-kit >=0.2.0`
+
+- **Fix**: Update spec-kit with `uv tool install specify-cli --force`
+
+**Error**: `Command file not found`
+
+- **Fix**: Ensure command files exist at paths specified in manifest
+
+### Commands not registered
+
+**Symptom**: Commands don't appear in AI agent
+
+**Check**:
+
+1. `.claude/commands/` directory exists
+2. Extension installed successfully
+3. Commands registered in registry:
+
+   ```bash
+   cat .specify/extensions/.registry
+   ```
+
+**Fix**: Reinstall extension to trigger registration
+
+### Config not loading
+
+**Check**:
+
+1. Config file exists: `.specify/extensions/{ext-id}/{ext-id}-config.yml`
+2. YAML syntax is valid: `yq eval '.' config.yml`
+3. Environment variables set correctly
+

+
+## Best Practices
+
+### Extension Design
+
+1. **Single Responsibility**: Each extension should focus on one tool/integration
+2. **Clear Naming**: Use descriptive, unambiguous names
+3. **Minimal Dependencies**: Avoid unnecessary dependencies
+4. **Backward Compatibility**: Follow semantic versioning strictly
+
+### Documentation
+
+1. **README.md Structure**:
+   - Overview and features
+   - Installation instructions
+   - Configuration guide
+   - Usage examples
+   - Troubleshooting
+   - Contributing guidelines
+
+2. **Command Documentation**:
+   - Clear description
+   - Prerequisites listed
+   - Step-by-step instructions
+   - Error handling guidance
+   - Examples
+
+3. **Configuration**:
+   - Provide template file
+   - Document all options
+   - Include examples
+   - Explain defaults
+
+### Security
+
+1. **Input Validation**: Validate all user inputs
+2. **No Hardcoded Secrets**: Never include credentials
+3. **Safe Dependencies**: Only use trusted dependencies
+4. **Audit Regularly**: Check for vulnerabilities
+
+### Maintenance
+
+1. **Respond to Issues**: Address issues within 1-2 weeks
+2. **Regular Updates**: Keep dependencies updated
+3. **Changelog**: Maintain detailed changelog
+4. **Deprecation**: Give advance notice for breaking changes
+
+### Community
+
+1. **License**: Use permissive open-source license (MIT, Apache 2.0)
+2. **Contributing**: Welcome contributions
+3. **Code of Conduct**: Be respectful and inclusive
+4. **Support**: Provide ways to get help (issues, discussions, email)
+

+
+## FAQ
+
+### Q: Can I publish private/proprietary extensions?
+
+A: The main catalog is for public extensions only. For private extensions:
+
+- Host your own catalog.json file
+- Users add your catalog: `specify extension add-catalog https://your-domain.com/catalog.json`
+- Not yet implemented - coming in Phase 4
+
+### Q: How long does verification take?
+
+A: Typically 3-7 business days for initial review. Updates to verified extensions are usually faster.
+
+### Q: What if my extension is rejected?
+
+A: You'll receive feedback on what needs to be fixed. Make the changes and resubmit.
+
+### Q: Can I update my extension anytime?
+
+A: Yes, submit a PR to update the catalog with your new version. Verified status may be re-evaluated for major changes.
+
+### Q: Do I need to be verified to be in the catalog?
+
+A: No, unverified extensions are still searchable. Verification just adds trust and visibility.
+
+### Q: Can extensions have paid features?
+
+A: Extensions should be free and open-source. Commercial support/services are allowed, but core functionality must be free.

+
+## Introduction
+
+### What are Extensions?
+
+Extensions are modular packages that add new commands and functionality to Spec Kit without bloating the core framework. They allow you to:
+
+- **Integrate** with external tools (Jira, Linear, GitHub, etc.)
+- **Automate** repetitive tasks with hooks
+- **Customize** workflows for your team
+- **Share** solutions across projects
+
+### Why Use Extensions?
+
+- **Clean Core**: Keeps spec-kit lightweight and focused
+- **Optional Features**: Only install what you need
+- **Community Driven**: Anyone can create and share extensions
+- **Version Controlled**: Extensions are versioned independently
+
+---
+
+## Getting Started
+
+### Prerequisites
+
+- Spec Kit version 0.1.0 or higher
+- A spec-kit project (directory with `.specify/` folder)
+
+### Check Your Version
+
+```bash
+specify --version
+# Should show 0.1.0 or higher
+```
+
+### First Extension
+
+Let's install the Jira extension as an example:
+
+```bash
+# 1. Search for the extension
+specify extension search jira
+
+# 2. Get detailed information
+specify extension info jira
+
+# 3. Install it
+specify extension add jira
+
+# 4. Configure it
+vim .specify/extensions/jira/jira-config.yml
+
+# 5. Use it
+# (Commands are now available in Claude Code)
+/speckit.jira.specstoissues
+```
+
+---
+
+## Finding Extensions
+
+### Browse All Extensions
+
+```bash
+specify extension search
+```
+
+Shows all available extensions in the catalog.
+
+### Search by Keyword
+
+```bash
+# Search for "jira"
+specify extension search jira

+
+---
+
+## Installing Extensions
+
+### Install from Catalog
+
+```bash
+# By name (from catalog)
+specify extension add jira
+```
+
+This will:
+
+1. Download the extension from GitHub
+2. Validate the manifest
+3. Check compatibility with your spec-kit version
+4. Install to `.specify/extensions/jira/`
+5. Register commands with your AI agent
+6. Create config template
+
+### Install from URL
+
+```bash
+# From GitHub release
+specify extension add --from https://github.com/org/spec-kit-ext/archive/refs/tags/v1.0.0.zip
+```
+
+### Install from Local Directory (Development)
+
+```bash
+# For testing or development
+specify extension add --dev /path/to/extension
+```
+
+### Installation Output
+
+```text
+✓ Extension installed successfully!
+
+Jira Integration (v1.0.0)
+  Create Jira Epics, Stories, and Issues from spec-kit artifacts
+
+Provided commands:
+  • speckit.jira.specstoissues - Create Jira hierarchy from spec and tasks
+  • speckit.jira.discover-fields - Discover Jira custom fields for configuration
+  • speckit.jira.sync-status - Sync task completion status to Jira
+
+⚠  Configuration may be required
+   Check: .specify/extensions/jira/
+```
+
+---
+
+## Using Extensions
+
+### Using Extension Commands
+
+Extensions add commands that appear in your AI agent (Claude Code):
+
+```text
+# In Claude Code
+> /speckit.jira.specstoissues
+
+# Or use short alias (if provided)
+> /speckit.specstoissues
+```
+
+### Extension Configuration
+
+Most extensions require configuration:
+
+```bash
+# 1. Find the config file
+ls .specify/extensions/jira/
+
+# 2. Copy template to config
+cp .specify/extensions/jira/jira-config.template.yml \
+   .specify/extensions/jira/jira-config.yml
+
+# 3. Edit configuration
+vim .specify/extensions/jira/jira-config.yml
+
+# 4. Use the extension
+# (Commands will now work with your config)
+```
+
+### Extension Hooks
+
+Some extensions provide hooks that execute after core commands:
+
+**Example**: Jira extension hooks into `/speckit.tasks`
+
+```text
+# Run core command
+> /speckit.tasks
+
+# Output includes:
+## Extension Hooks
+
+**Optional Hook**: jira
+Command: `/speckit.jira.specstoissues`
+Description: Automatically create Jira hierarchy after task generation
+
+Prompt: Create Jira issues from tasks?
+To execute: `/speckit.jira.specstoissues`
+```
+
+You can then choose to run the hook or skip it.
+
+---
+
+## Managing Extensions
+
+### List Installed Extensions
+
+```bash
+specify extension list
+```
+
+Output:
+
+```text
+Installed Extensions:
+
+  ✓ Jira Integration (v1.0.0)
+     Create Jira Epics, Stories, and Issues from spec-kit artifacts
+     Commands: 3 | Hooks: 1 | Status: Enabled
+```
+
+### Update Extensions
+
+```bash
+# Check for updates (all extensions)
+specify extension update
+
+# Update specific extension
+specify extension update jira
+```
+
+Output:
+
+```text
+🔄 Checking for updates...
+
+Updates available:
+
+  • jira: 1.0.0 → 1.1.0
+
+Update these extensions? [y/N]:
+```
+
+### Disable Extension Temporarily
+
+```bash
+# Disable without removing
+specify extension disable jira
+
+✓ Extension 'jira' disabled
+
+Commands will no longer be available. Hooks will not execute.
+To re-enable: specify extension enable jira
+```
+
+### Re-enable Extension
+
+```bash
+specify extension enable jira
+
+✓ Extension 'jira' enabled
+```
+
+### Remove Extension
+
+```bash
+# Remove extension (with confirmation)
+specify extension remove jira
+
+# Keep configuration when removing
+specify extension remove jira --keep-config
+
+# Force removal (no confirmation)
+specify extension remove jira --force
+```
+
+---
+
+## Configuration
+
+### Configuration Files
+
+Extensions can have multiple configuration files:
+
+```text
+.specify/extensions/jira/
+├── jira-config.yml           # Main config (version controlled)
+├── jira-config.local.yml     # Local overrides (gitignored)
+└── jira-config.template.yml  # Template (reference)
+```
+
+### Configuration Layers
+
+Configuration is merged in this order (highest priority last):
+
+1. **Extension defaults** (from `extension.yml`)
+2. **Project config** (`jira-config.yml`)
+3. **Local overrides** (`jira-config.local.yml`)
+4. **Environment variables** (`SPECKIT_JIRA_*`)
+
+### Example: Jira Configuration
+
+**Project config** (`.specify/extensions/jira/jira-config.yml`):
+
+```yaml
+project:
+  key: "MSATS"
+
+defaults:
+  epic:
+    labels: ["spec-driven"]
+```
+
+**Local override** (`.specify/extensions/jira/jira-config.local.yml`):
+
+```yaml
+project:
+  key: "MYTEST"  # Override for local development
+```
+
+**Environment variable**:
+
+```bash
+export SPECKIT_JIRA_PROJECT_KEY="DEVTEST"
+```
+
+Final resolved config uses `DEVTEST` from environment variable.
+
+### Project-Wide Extension Settings
+
+File: `.specify/extensions.yml`
+
+```yaml
+# Extensions installed in this project
+installed:
+  - jira
+  - linear
+
+# Global settings
+settings:
+  auto_execute_hooks: true
+
+# Hook configuration
+hooks:
+  after_tasks:
+    - extension: jira
+      command: speckit.jira.specstoissues
+      enabled: true
+      optional: true
+      prompt: "Create Jira issues from tasks?"
+```
+
+### Core Environment Variables
+
+In addition to extension-specific environment variables (`SPECKIT_{EXT_ID}_*`), spec-kit supports core environment variables:
+
+| Variable | Description | Default |
+|----------|-------------|---------|
+| `SPECKIT_CATALOG_URL`       | Override the extension catalog URL | GitHub-hosted catalog |
+| `GH_TOKEN` / `GITHUB_TOKEN` | GitHub API token for downloads     | None                  |
+
+#### Example: Using a custom catalog for testing
+
+```bash
+# Point to a local or alternative catalog
+export SPECKIT_CATALOG_URL="http://localhost:8000/catalog.json"
+
+# Or use a staging catalog
+export SPECKIT_CATALOG_URL="https://example.com/staging/catalog.json"
+```
+
+---
+
+## Organization Catalog Customization
+
+### Why the Default Catalog is Empty
+
+The default spec-kit catalog ships empty by design. This allows organizations to:
+
+- **Control available extensions** - Curate which extensions your team can install
+- **Host private extensions** - Internal tools that shouldn't be public
+- **Customize for compliance** - Meet security/audit requirements
+- **Support air-gapped environments** - Work without internet access
+
+### Setting Up a Custom Catalog
+
+#### 1. Create Your Catalog File
+
+Create a `catalog.json` file with your extensions:
+
+```json
+{
+  "schema_version": "1.0",
+  "updated_at": "2026-02-03T00:00:00Z",
+  "catalog_url": "https://your-org.com/spec-kit/catalog.json",
+  "extensions": {
+    "jira": {
+      "name": "Jira Integration",
+      "id": "jira",
+      "description": "Create Jira issues from spec-kit artifacts",
+      "author": "Your Organization",
+      "version": "2.1.0",
+      "download_url": "https://github.com/your-org/spec-kit-jira/archive/refs/tags/v2.1.0.zip",
+      "repository": "https://github.com/your-org/spec-kit-jira",
+      "license": "MIT",
+      "requires": {
+        "speckit_version": ">=0.1.0",
+        "tools": [
+          {"name": "atlassian-mcp-server", "required": true}
+        ]
+      },
+      "provides": {
+        "commands": 3,
+        "hooks": 1
+      },
+      "tags": ["jira", "atlassian", "issue-tracking"],
+      "verified": true
+    },
+    "internal-tool": {
+      "name": "Internal Tool Integration",
+      "id": "internal-tool",
+      "description": "Connect to internal company systems",
+      "author": "Your Organization",
+      "version": "1.0.0",
+      "download_url": "https://internal.your-org.com/extensions/internal-tool-1.0.0.zip",
+      "repository": "https://github.internal.your-org.com/spec-kit-internal",
+      "license": "Proprietary",
+      "requires": {
+        "speckit_version": ">=0.1.0"
+      },
+      "provides": {
+        "commands": 2
+      },
+      "tags": ["internal", "proprietary"],
+      "verified": true
+    }
+  }
+}
+```
+
+#### 2. Host the Catalog
+
+Options for hosting your catalog:
+
+| Method | URL Example | Use Case |
+| ------ | ----------- | -------- |
+| GitHub Pages | `https://your-org.github.io/spec-kit-catalog/catalog.json` | Public or org-visible |
+| Internal web server | `https://internal.company.com/spec-kit/catalog.json` | Corporate network |
+| S3/Cloud storage | `https://s3.amazonaws.com/your-bucket/catalog.json` | Cloud-hosted teams |
+| Local file server | `http://localhost:8000/catalog.json` | Development/testing |
+
+**Security requirement**: URLs must use HTTPS (except `localhost` for testing).
+
+#### 3. Configure Your Environment
+
+##### Option A: Environment variable (recommended for CI/CD)
+
+```bash
+# In ~/.bashrc, ~/.zshrc, or CI pipeline
+export SPECKIT_CATALOG_URL="https://your-org.com/spec-kit/catalog.json"
+```
+
+##### Option B: Per-project configuration
+
+Create `.env` or set in your shell before running spec-kit commands:
+
+```bash
+SPECKIT_CATALOG_URL="https://your-org.com/spec-kit/catalog.json" specify extension search
+```
+
+#### 4. Verify Configuration
+
+```bash
+# Search should now show your catalog's extensions
+specify extension search
+
+# Install from your catalog
+specify extension add jira
+```
+
+### Catalog JSON Schema
+
+Required fields for each extension entry:
+
+| Field | Type | Required | Description |
+| ----- | ---- | -------- | ----------- |
+| `name` | string | Yes | Human-readable name |
+| `id` | string | Yes | Unique identifier (lowercase, hyphens) |
+| `version` | string | Yes | Semantic version (X.Y.Z) |
+| `download_url` | string | Yes | URL to ZIP archive |
+| `repository` | string | Yes | Source code URL |
+| `description` | string | No | Brief description |
+| `author` | string | No | Author/organization |
+| `license` | string | No | SPDX license identifier |
+| `requires.speckit_version` | string | No | Version constraint |
+| `requires.tools` | array | No | Required external tools |
+| `provides.commands` | number | No | Number of commands |
+| `provides.hooks` | number | No | Number of hooks |
+| `tags` | array | No | Search tags |
+| `verified` | boolean | No | Verification status |
+
+### Use Cases
+
+#### Private/Internal Extensions
+
+Host proprietary extensions that integrate with internal systems:
+
+```json
+{
+  "internal-auth": {
+    "name": "Internal SSO Integration",
+    "download_url": "https://artifactory.company.com/spec-kit/internal-auth-1.0.0.zip",
+    "verified": true
+  }
+}
+```
+
+#### Curated Team Catalog
+
+Limit which extensions your team can install:
+
+```json
+{
+  "extensions": {
+    "jira": { "..." },
+    "github": { "..." }
+  }
+}
+```
+
+Only `jira` and `github` will appear in `specify extension search`.
+
+#### Air-Gapped Environments
+
+For networks without internet access:
+
+1. Download extension ZIPs to internal file server
+2. Create catalog pointing to internal URLs
+3. Host catalog on internal web server
+
+```json
+{
+  "jira": {
+    "download_url": "https://files.internal/spec-kit/jira-2.1.0.zip"
+  }
+}
+```
+
+#### Development/Testing
+
+Test new extensions before publishing:
+
+```bash
+# Start local server
+python -m http.server 8000 --directory ./my-catalog/
+
+# Point spec-kit to local catalog
+export SPECKIT_CATALOG_URL="http://localhost:8000/catalog.json"
+
+# Test installation
+specify extension add my-new-extension
+```
+
+### Combining with Direct Installation
+
+You can still install extensions not in your catalog using `--from`:
+
+```bash
+# From catalog
+specify extension add jira
+
+# Direct URL (bypasses catalog)
+specify extension add --from https://github.com/someone/spec-kit-ext/archive/v1.0.0.zip
+
+# Local development
+specify extension add --dev /path/to/extension
+```
+
+**Note**: Direct URL installation shows a security warning since the extension isn't from your configured catalog.
+
+---
+
+## Troubleshooting
+
+### Extension Not Found
+
+**Error**: `Extension 'jira' not found in catalog
+
+**Solutions**:
+
+1. Check spelling: `specify extension search jira`
+2. Refresh catalog: `specify extension search --help`
+3. Check internet connection
+4. Extension may not be published yet
+
+### Configuration Not Found
+
+**Error**: `Jira configuration not found`
+
+**Solutions**:
+
+1. Check if extension is installed: `specify extension list`
+2. Create config from template:
+
+   ```bash
+   cp .specify/extensions/jira/jira-config.template.yml \
+      .specify/extensions/jira/jira-config.yml
+   ```
+
+3. Reinstall extension: `specify extension remove jira && specify extension add jira`
+
+### Command Not Available
+
+**Issue**: Extension command not appearing in AI agent
+
+**Solutions**:
+
+1. Check extension is enabled: `specify extension list`
+2. Restart AI agent (Claude Code)
+3. Check command file exists:
+
+   ```bash
+   ls .claude/commands/speckit.jira.*.md
+   ```
+
+4. Reinstall extension
+
+### Incompatible Version
+
+**Error**: `Extension requires spec-kit >=0.2.0, but you have 0.1.0`
+
+**Solutions**:
+
+1. Upgrade spec-kit:
+
+   ```bash
+   uv tool upgrade specify-cli
+   ```
+
+2. Install older version of extension:
+
+   ```bash
+   specify extension add --from https://github.com/org/ext/archive/v1.0.0.zip
+   ```
+
+### MCP Tool Not Available
+
+**Error**: `Tool 'jira-mcp-server/epic_create' not found`
+
+**Solutions**:
+
+1. Check MCP server is installed
+2. Check AI agent MCP configuration
+3. Restart AI agent
+4. Check extension requirements: `specify extension info jira`
+
+### Permission Denied
+
+**Error**: `Permission denied` when accessing Jira
+
+**Solutions**:
+
+1. Check Jira credentials in MCP server config
+2. Verify project permissions in Jira
+3. Test MCP server connection independently
+
+---
+
+## Best Practices
+
+### 1. Version Control
+
+**Do commit**:
+
+- `.specify/extensions.yml` (project extension config)
+- `.specify/extensions/*/jira-config.yml` (project config)
+
+**Don't commit**:
+
+- `.specify/extensions/.cache/` (catalog cache)
+- `.specify/extensions/.backup/` (config backups)
+- `.specify/extensions/*/*.local.yml` (local overrides)
+- `.specify/extensions/.registry` (installation state)
+
+Add to `.gitignore`:
+
+```gitignore
+.specify/extensions/.cache/
+.specify/extensions/.backup/
+.specify/extensions/*/*.local.yml
+.specify/extensions/.registry
+```
+
+### 2. Team Workflows
+
+**For teams**:
+
+1. Agree on which extensions to use
+2. Commit extension configuration
+3. Document extension usage in README
+4. Keep extensions updated together
+
+**Example README section**:
+
+```markdown
+## Extensions
+
+This project uses:
+- **jira** (v1.0.0) - Jira integration
+  - Config: `.specify/extensions/jira/jira-config.yml`
+  - Requires: jira-mcp-server
+
+To install: `specify extension add jira`
+```
+
+### 3. Local Development
+
+Use local config for development:
+
+```yaml
+# .specify/extensions/jira/jira-config.local.yml
+project:
+  key: "DEVTEST"  # Your test project
+
+defaults:
+  task:
+    custom_fields:
+      customfield_10002: 1  # Lower story points for testing
+```
+
+### 4. Environment-Specific Config
+
+Use environment variables for CI/CD:
+
+```bash
+# .github/workflows/deploy.yml
+env:
+  SPECKIT_JIRA_PROJECT_KEY: ${{ secrets.JIRA_PROJECT }}
+
+- name: Create Jira Issues
+  run: specify extension add jira && ...
+```
+
+### 5. Extension Updates
+
+**Check for updates regularly**:
+
+```bash
+# Weekly or before major releases
+specify extension update
+```
+
+**Pin versions for stability**:
+
+```yaml
+# .specify/extensions.yml
+installed:
+  - id: jira
+    version: "1.0.0"  # Pin to specific version
+```
+
+### 6. Minimal Extensions
+
+Only install extensions you actively use:
+
+- Reduces complexity
+- Faster command loading
+- Less configuration
+
+### 7. Documentation
+
+Document extension usage in your project:
+
+```markdown
+# PROJECT.md
+
+## Working with Jira
+
+After creating tasks, sync to Jira:
+1. Run `/speckit.tasks` to generate tasks
+2. Run `/speckit.jira.specstoissues` to create Jira issues
+3. Run `/speckit.jira.sync-status` to update status
+```
+

+
+## FAQ
+
+### Q: Can I use multiple extensions at once?
+
+**A**: Yes! Extensions are designed to work together. Install as many as you need.
+
+### Q: Do extensions slow down spec-kit?
+
+**A**: No. Extensions are loaded on-demand and only when their commands are used.
+
+### Q: Can I create private extensions?
+
+**A**: Yes. Install with `--dev` or `--from` and keep private. Public catalog submission is optional.
+
+### Q: How do I know if an extension is safe?
+
+**A**: Look for the ✓ Verified badge. Verified extensions are reviewed by maintainers. Always review extension code before installing.
+
+### Q: Can extensions modify spec-kit core?
+
+**A**: No. Extensions can only add commands and hooks. They cannot modify core functionality.
+
+### Q: What happens if two extensions have the same command name?
+
+**A**: Extensions use namespaced commands (`speckit.{extension}.{command}`), so conflicts are very rare. The extension system will warn you if conflicts occur.
+
+### Q: Can I contribute to existing extensions?
+
+**A**: Yes! Most extensions are open source. Check the repository link in `specify extension info {extension}`.
+
+### Q: How do I report extension bugs?
+
+**A**: Go to the extension's repository (shown in `specify extension info`) and create an issue.
+
+### Q: Can extensions work offline?
+
+**A**: Once installed, extensions work offline. However, some extensions may require internet for their functionality (e.g., Jira requires Jira API access).
+
+### Q: How do I backup my extension configuration?
+
+**A**: Extension configs are in `.specify/extensions/{extension}/`. Back up this directory or commit configs to git.

+<!-- CUSTOMIZE: Replace this entire file with your command documentation -->
+
+This is an example command that demonstrates how to create commands for Spec Kit extensions.
+
+## Purpose
+
+Describe what this command does and when to use it.
+
+## Prerequisites
+
+List requirements before using this command:
+
+1. Prerequisite 1 (e.g., "MCP server configured")
+2. Prerequisite 2 (e.g., "Configuration file exists")
+3. Prerequisite 3 (e.g., "Valid API credentials")
+
+## User Input
+
+$ARGUMENTS
+
+## Steps
+
+### Step 1: Load Configuration
+
+<!-- CUSTOMIZE: Replace with your actual steps -->
+
+Load extension configuration from the project:
+
+``bash
+config_file=".specify/extensions/my-extension/my-extension-config.yml"
+
+if [ ! -f "$config_file" ]; then
+  echo "❌ Error: Configuration not found at $config_file"
+  echo "Run 'specify extension add my-extension' to install and configure"
+  exit 1
+fi
+
+# Read configuration values
+
+setting_value=$(yq eval '.settings.key' "$config_file")
+
+# Apply environment variable overrides
+
+setting_value="${SPECKIT_MY_EXTENSION_KEY:-$setting_value}"
+
+# Validate configuration
+
+if [ -z "$setting_value" ]; then
+  echo "❌ Error: Configuration value not set"
+  echo "Edit $config_file and set 'settings.key'"
+  exit 1
+fi
+
+echo "📋 Configuration loaded: $setting_value"
+``
+
+### Step 2: Perform Main Action
+
+<!-- CUSTOMIZE: Replace with your command logic -->
+
+Describe what this step does:
+
+``markdown
+Use MCP tools to perform the main action:
+
+- Tool: example-mcp-server example_tool
+- Parameters: { "key": "$setting_value" }
+
+This calls the MCP server tool to execute the operation.
+``
+
+### Step 3: Process Results
+
+<!-- CUSTOMIZE: Add more steps as needed -->
+
+Process the results and provide output:
+
+`` bash
+echo ""
+echo "✅ Command completed successfully!"
+echo ""
+echo "Results:"
+echo "  • Item 1: Value"
+echo "  • Item 2: Value"
+echo ""
+``
+
+### Step 4: Save Output (Optional)
+
+Save results to a file if needed:
+
+``bash
+output_file=".specify/my-extension-output.json"
+
+cat > "$output_file" <<EOF
+{
+  "timestamp": "$(date -u +"%Y-%m-%dT%H:%M:%SZ")",
+  "setting": "$setting_value",
+  "results": []
+}
+EOF
+
+echo "💾 Output saved to $output_file"
+``
+
+## Configuration Reference
+
+<!-- CUSTOMIZE: Document configuration options -->
+
+This command uses the following configuration from `my-extension-config.yml`:
+
+- **settings.key**: Description of what this setting does
+  - Type: string
+  - Required: Yes
+  - Example: `"example-value"`
+
+- **settings.another_key**: Description of another setting
+  - Type: boolean
+  - Required: No
+  - Default: `false`
+  - Example: `true`
+
+## Environment Variables
+
+<!-- CUSTOMIZE: Document environment variable overrides -->
+
+Configuration can be overridden with environment variables:
+
+- `SPECKIT_MY_EXTENSION_KEY` - Overrides `settings.key`
+- `SPECKIT_MY_EXTENSION_ANOTHER_KEY` - Overrides `settings.another_key`
+
+Example:
+``bash
+export SPECKIT_MY_EXTENSION_KEY="override-value"
+``
+
+## Troubleshooting
+
+<!-- CUSTOMIZE: Add common issues and solutions -->
+
+### "Configuration not found"
+
+**Solution**: Install the extension and create configuration:
+``bash
+specify extension add my-extension
+cp .specify/extensions/my-extension/config-template.yml \
+   .specify/extensions/my-extension/my-extension-config.yml
+``
+
+### "MCP tool not available"
+
+**Solution**: Ensure MCP server is configured in your AI agent settings.
+
+### "Permission denied"
+
+**Solution**: Check credentials and permissions in the external service.
+
+## Notes
+
+<!-- CUSTOMIZE: Add helpful notes and tips -->
+
+- This command requires an active connection to the external service
+- Results are cached for performance
+- Re-run the command to refresh data
+
+## Examples
+
+<!-- CUSTOMIZE: Add usage examples -->
+
+### Example 1: Basic Usage
+
+``bash
+
+# Run with default configuration
