$ARGUMENTS
You MUST consider the user input before proceeding (if not empty).
In repos with multiple features, always pass --feature <slug> to every spec-kitty command.
This command delegates constitution work to the CLI constitution workflow. Do not hand-author long governance content in chat unless the user explicitly asks for manual drafting.
.kittify/constitution/constitution.md.kittify/constitution/interview/answers.yaml.kittify/constitution/references.yaml.kittify/constitution/library/*.mdUse when user wants speed, defaults, or bootstrap:
spec-kitty constitution interview --defaults --profile minimal --json
spec-kitty constitution generate --from-interview --json
Use when the user wants project-specific policy capture:
spec-kitty constitution interview --profile comprehensive
spec-kitty constitution generate --from-interview
constitution interview (or edit answers.yaml) and regenerate.--force with generate if the constitution already exists and must be replaced.references.yaml.After generation, verify status:
spec-kitty constitution status --json
After constitution generation, first-run lifecycle actions should load context explicitly:
spec-kitty constitution context --action specify --json
spec-kitty constitution context --action plan --json
spec-kitty constitution context --action implement --json
spec-kitty constitution context --action review --json
Use JSON text as governance context. If mode=bootstrap, follow referenced docs as needed.
