Recent changes to the Specify CLI and templates are documented here. The format follows Keep a Changelog, and the project adheres to Semantic Versioning.

​
Version 0.1.6

​
Fixed

Parameter Ordering Issues (#1641)Fixed CLI parameter parsing issue where option flags were incorrectly consumed as values for preceding options.
  • Added validation to detect when --ai or --ai-commands-dir incorrectly consume following flags like --here or --ai-skills
  • Now provides clear error messages: “Invalid value for —ai: ‘—here’”
  • Includes helpful hints suggesting proper usage and listing available agents
  • Commands like specify init --ai-skills --ai --here now fail with actionable feedback instead of confusing “Must specify project name” errors
  • Added comprehensive test suite (5 new tests) to prevent regressions

​
Version 0.1.5

​
Fixed

AI Skills Installation Bug (#1658)Fixed --ai-skills flag not generating skill files for GitHub Copilot and other agents with non-standard command directory structures.
  • Added commands_subdir field to AGENT_CONFIG to explicitly specify the subdirectory name for each agent
  • Affected agents now work correctly: copilot (.github/agents/), opencode (.opencode/command/), windsurf (.windsurf/workflows/), codex (.codex/prompts/), kilocode (.kilocode/workflows/), q (.amazonq/prompts/), and agy (.agent/workflows/)
  • The install_ai_skills() function now uses the correct path for all agents instead of assuming commands/ for everyone

​
Version 0.1.4

​
Fixed

Qoder CLI DetectionRenamed AGENT_CONFIG key from "qoder" to "qodercli" to match the actual executable name, fixing specify check and specify init --ai detection failures.

​
Version 0.1.3

​
Added

Generic Agent SupportAdded --ai generic option for unsupported AI agents (“bring your own agent”):
  • Requires --ai-commands-dir <path> to specify where the agent reads commands from
  • Generates Markdown commands with $ARGUMENTS format (compatible with most agents)
  • Example: specify init my-project --ai generic --ai-commands-dir .myagent/commands/
  • Enables users to start with Spec Kit immediately while their agent awaits formal support
