Description

Superpowers bundles a set of composable skills plus initial instructions so a coding agent steps back to clarify a spec, plans, and then executes with practices like test-driven development and verification-before-completion. The README documents installation for many harnesses including Claude Code, Codex CLI, Cursor, Gemini CLI, OpenCode and GitHub Copilot CLI.
