 ## The Constitutional Foundation: Enforcing Architectural Discipline

 ### The Nine Articles of Development
 
 The constitution defines nine articles that shape every aspect of the development process:
 
 #### Article I: Library-First Principle

+Every feature in Specify MUST begin its existence as a standalone library.
+No feature shall be implemented directly within application code without
 first being abstracted into a reusable library component.
 ```
 
 This principle ensures that specifications generate modular, reusable code rather than monolithic applications. When the LLM generates an implementation plan, it must structure features as libraries with clear boundaries and minimal dependencies.
 
 #### Article II: CLI Interface Mandate
+
 Every library must expose its functionality through a command-line interface:

 - Accept text as input (via stdin, arguments, or files)
 - Produce text as output (via stdout)

 This completely inverts traditional AI code generation. Instead of generating code and hoping it works, the LLM must first generate comprehensive tests that define behavior, get them approved, and only then generate implementation.
 
 #### Articles VII & VIII: Simplicity and Anti-Abstraction
