Claude Win11 Speckit Update Skill

Overview

Review updates to GitHub SpecKit on Windows 11 with PowerShell, preserving local templates and customizations

When to Use This Skill

Use this skill when you need to work with windows 11 system management.

Instructions

This is a guide to an archived upstream SpecKit updater, not Windows system administration. No updater scripts are bundled in AAS. Confirm Windows, PowerShell, Git and the project's existing SpecKit installation before selecting a supported update path. Record the installed version, current file diff and intended upstream revision. Preserve a separate copy of local customizations, review the proposed three-way changes, and apply only the accepted changes within the project scope. Do not run specify init --force as a shortcut or claim preservation before inspecting the result. If the legacy updater is absent, produce a reviewable migration plan; do not invent its slash command or execute unreviewed scripts.
