Overview
About This Skill
This Claude Code skill provides automated, safe updates for SpecKit installations on Windows 11 without losing your customizations. It uses fingerprint-based version detection and intelligent 3-way merging to reduce merge conflicts from ~15 to 0-2, with zero conflicts for first-time users. The skill automatically creates timestamped backups before updates, detects which files you've customized, and rolls back automatically if anything fails. Operations teams benefit by eliminating destructive `specify init --force` commands and manual update coordination. For teams requiring higher GitHub API rate limits, optional authentication via GitHub PAT is supported.
How to Use
Install via the NotMyself plugin marketplace with `/plugin marketplace add NotMyself/claude-plugins` followed by `/plugin install speckit-updater`. Run `/speckit-updater` to update to the latest version with conversational approval, or use `--check-only` for a dry-run. Optionally set `GITHUB_PAT` environment variable for higher API rate limits.
Use Cases
Safely update SpecKit templates across team projects without losing custom configurations
Automate routine SpecKit version upgrades in PowerShell-based CI/CD workflows
Preserve customized commands and scripts during SpecKit updates
Perform dry-run checks before applying SpecKit updates to production projects
