# Community Presets

> [!NOTE]
> Community presets are independently created and maintained by their respective authors. Maintainers only verify that catalog entries are complete and correctly formatted — they do **not review, audit, endorse, or support the preset code itself**. Review preset source code before installation and use at your own discretion.

The following community-contributed presets customize how Spec Kit behaves — overriding templates, commands, and terminology without changing any tooling. Presets are available in [`catalog.community.json`](https://github.com/github/spec-kit/blob/main/presets/catalog.community.json):
