### **STEP 3.5: Understand init Command Standards** ⭐ NEW
1262+
1263+
**Goal**: Ensure your speckit's `init` command follows MetaSpec standards.
1264+
1265+
**Why this matters**: When you later use `/metaspec.sdd.specify` to define your toolkit, the `init` command specification must align with MetaSpec conventions. This prevents common mistakes like creating single files instead of project structures.
1266+
1267+
#### init Command Standard for Generator/Scaffolder Toolkits
1268+
1269+
**If your toolkit type is "Generator/Scaffolder"**, the `init` command **MUST**:
1270+
1271+
1. **Argument Format**:
1272+
```bash
1273+
{toolkit-name} init <project-directory> [OPTIONS]
1274+
```
1275+
- ✅ Argument is a **directory name** (not a filename)
1276+
- ❌ WRONG: `{toolkit-name} init spec.yaml`
1277+
- ✅ RIGHT: `{toolkit-name} init my-project`
1278+
1279+
2. **Output Structure** (Must create):
1280+
```
1281+
<project-directory>/
1282+
├── .{toolkit-name}/ # Configuration directory
1283+
│ ├── commands/ # (Optional) Custom slash commands
1284+
│ └── templates/ # (Optional) Output templates
1285+
├── memory/
1286+
│ └── constitution.md # Project principles (pre-filled)
1287+
├── specs/
1288+
│ └── {initial-spec} # Initial specification file
1289+
└── README.md # Project documentation
1290+
```
1291+
1292+
3. **constitution.md Requirements**:
1293+
- ✅ Must be pre-filled with template content
1294+
- ✅ Must include domain-specific guidance
1295+
- ❌ NOT empty or placeholder
1296+
1297+
4. **Initial Specification File**:
1298+
- ✅ Created from template with example data
1299+
- ✅ Must pass validation immediately
1300+
1301+
#### Reference Examples
1302+
1303+
**✅ Correct (MetaSpec itself)**:
1304+
```bash
1305+
metaspec init my-speckit
1306+
# Creates: my-speckit/ with full structure
1307+
# - All required directories
1308+
# - Pre-filled constitution.md
1309+
# - Example spec files
1310+
```
1311+
1312+
**❌ Wrong**:
1313+
```bash
1314+
my-toolkit init spec.yaml
1315+
# Creates: Single spec.yaml file only
1316+
# Missing: directories, constitution, README
1317+
```
1318+
1319+
#### Why These Standards?
1320+
1321+
1. **Consistency**: All MetaSpec-generated toolkits follow the same pattern
1322+
2. **AI-Friendly**: AI agents know what to expect
1323+
3. **Complete Projects**: Users get a full project structure, not just a file
1324+
4. **Best Practices**: Follows industry standards (like create-react-app, cargo new)
1325+
1326+
#### When NOT to Follow
1327+
1328+
**If your toolkit is NOT a "Generator/Scaffolder"** (e.g., pure validator, query tool), `init` may have different behavior or not exist at all. The standards above apply specifically to toolkits that create projects or scaffolding.

## [0.9.0] - 2025-11-17
13+
14+
### 🎯 `/metaspec.sdd.specify` Command Enhancement
15+
16+
**Proposal ID**: PROP-2024-11-17-SDD-SPECIFY
17+
**Date**: 2025-11-17
18+
**Status**: ✅ Implemented
19+
**Severity**: High
20+
**Source**: marketing-spec-kit development practice feedback
21+
**Migration Guide**: `docs/migration-guide-v0.9.0.md`
22+
23+
#### Core Issues
24+
25+
Based on actual `marketing-spec-kit` development, we identified **5 design flaws** in `/metaspec.sdd.specify` command:
26+
27+
**P0 - Must Fix**:
28+
1. **Missing Use Case → Component logic derivation** - causes incorrect component classification
29+
2. **Missing AGENTS.md consistency check** - init command conflicts with standards
30+
3. **Unclear init command standards** - inconsistent behavior across toolkits
31+
32+
**P1 - Should Fix**:
33+
4. **Missing Generator necessity logic** - generation-focused toolkits lack core components
34+
5. **Missing cross-document consistency validation** - no automatic verification mechanism
35+
36+
#### Real-World Case
37+
38+
**Issues exposed by marketing-spec-kit**:
39+
```bash
40+
# Issue 1: Generator misclassification
41+
Primary Use Case: "AI-Driven Content Generation"
42+
But Generator marked as "Future Enhancement"
43+
Should be: Core Component ✅
44+
45+
# Issue 2: init command non-compliant
46+
Generated definition: marketing_spec_kit init <filename>
47+
AGENTS.md standard: {toolkit} init <project-dir>
48+
```
49+
50+
#### ✅ Implemented Fixes
51+
52+
**Key Insight**: During implementation, we discovered MetaSpec already has complete validation architecture (both SDS/SDD have independent analyze commands). Final solution adopts **separation of concerns**: specify generates, analyze validates.
53+
54+
**Detailed Proposal**: `docs/internal/sdd-specify-enhancement-proposal.md`
55+
**Final Summary**: `docs/internal/v0.9.0-final-implementation-summary.md`
56+
57+
