Tags

epistemics, evidence, provenance, uncertainty, governance

Key Features

• Challenge claims on atomicity, boundaries, falsifiability, dependencies, and evidence independence
• Assess explicit claims and emit a rich AEE assessment plus an Evaluator Contract result
• Render the claim dependency graph and inspect epistemic provenance
• Verify the tamper-evident AEE ledger without claiming its contents are true
• Apply a CI-friendly decision gate to an AEE assessment
• Generate and update the gap register from a verification matrix and test evidence

Testing Checklist

• Extension installs successfully via download URL
• All commands execute without errors
• Documentation is complete and accurate
• No security vulnerabilities identified
• Tested on at least one real project

Submission Requirements

• Valid extension.yml manifest included
• README.md with installation and usage instructions
• LICENSE file included
• GitHub release created with version tag
• All command files exist and are properly formatted
• Extension ID follows naming conventions (lowercase-with-hyphens)

Testing Details

Tested on (CI): Ubuntu 24.04 with Python 3.11 and 3.13; Windows with Python 3.12 — all installing the real AEE engine 1.0.2 from hash-locked requirements (pip install --require-hashes).
Manifest validation: the release extension.yml is parsed with Spec Kit's own manifest parser in CI (validate job), and deterministic extension.yml/documentation compliance tests run on every push.
What changed in v1.0.1 vs v1.0.0: dependency metadata now uses Spec Kit's documented tool metadata (Python, AEE engine 1.0.2, Evaluator Contract); the unsupported requires.commands field was replaced with explicit installation guidance; the description was trimmed to 99 characters per the publishing guide; the exact AEE claim field vocabulary is documented in speckit.aee.assess.

Example Usage

# Install extension
specify extension add aee --from https://github.com/electrohire/spec-kit-aee/archive/refs/tags/v1.0.1.zip

# Assess the claims in your current spec
/speckit.aee.assess

Additional Context

Note for maintainers: this updates the existing catalog entry for the AEE extension (v1.0.0 → v1.0.1, new description). It is separate from #4626, which requested dependency-metadata corrections for the existing v1.0.0 entry. Please do not close this as a duplicate of #4626.

• This issue supersedes [Extension]: Update AEE catalog entry to v1.0.1 #4642, which failed automated validation because its body was missing the Submission Requirements checklist section; [Extension]: Update AEE catalog entry to v1.0.1 #4642 is being closed.
• Existing catalog entry (v1.0.0) should be updated to this v1.0.1 entry: new version, new 99-character description, declared tool dependencies.
• Release: https://github.com/electrohire/spec-kit-aee/releases/tag/v1.0.1
