Summary

  • Clarify install docs so readers keep the leading v when substituting release tags (e.g. v0.12.11, not 0.12.11).
  • Update the same guidance in README, the installation guide, and the pipx/uvx install pages to avoid the common couldn't find remote ref failure.

Test plan

  • Confirm Releases tags are named vX.Y.Z.
  • Skim README + docs/installation.md wording for clarity.
  • Optionally verify uv tool install specify-cli --from git+https://github.com/github/spec-kit.git@v0.12.11 succeeds and @0.12.11 fails.

Readers were replacing vX.Y.Z with bare versions like 0.12.11,
which fails because git tags are named v0.12.11.
