superpowers

superpowers is a skill for Claude Code, Codex from itmisx/deepx-code. It costs 50 tokens per session (1,567 once invoked), scanned A, a copy of using-superpowers, MIT.

A set of instructions for applying the Superpowers working method to non-trivial coding tasks. It explains how to load relevant skills, make plans, and coordinate work in this environment.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it at the start of substantial coding work when the project expects this planning and skill-discovery method.
Why use it?
It gives the agent a consistent process for breaking down complex tasks and using the available workflow tools correctly.

Written for no agent in particular: nothing here depends on one. Also seen: mentions CLAUDE.md; mentions subagents; names the TodoWrite tool.

Token cost

What it costs to keep this loaded

Counted locally with the o200k_base tokenizer, which is exact for GPT models; Claude uses its own tokenizer and its counts differ. Treat this as one consistent yardstick across the catalogue rather than a bill. Prices are per million input tokens.

Security

Grade A, and why

superpowers scanned grade A with 0 findings against 26 rules in 11 categories — prompt injection, anti-refusal, data exfiltration, privilege escalation, supply chain, agent snooping, system-prompt leakage, SSRF and excessive agency — measured 1mo ago.

A static scan of the body, not an audit. Every finding is printed with the line that produced it so you can judge whether it matters here. A mod is markdown that instructs an agent; that is exactly why what it instructs is worth reading.

Nothing flagged

None of the 26 patterns this scan looks for appear in this file: no shell pipes, no recursive deletes, no credential paths, no hidden text, no instruction-override or anti-refusal phrasing, no agent-config snooping. That is not a guarantee, it is the absence of the things that are checkable.

Origin

This is a copy

84% identical to using-superpowers — 17 lines differ, which has more behind it and is treated as the original. This page carries a canonical link to it rather than competing with it.

How it starts

The opening of the file, as written. The whole thing — 127 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.

deepx 适配(工具名映射) —— 下文沿用 Claude Code 的工具名,在 deepx 里请按此对应,不要调用不存在的 Skill / TodoWrite / EnterPlanMode:

  • Skill 工具 → deepx 用 LoadSkill(按 skill 名加载并遵循)
  • TodoWrite → deepx 用 Todo(全量重发整张待办清单)
  • EnterPlanMode → deepx 无此工具:可并行拆任务用 CreatePlan,或直接在回复里给出计划;/plan 模式由用户进入,模型不能自己进
  • Task / 派发子 agent → deepx 用 CreatePlan(拆并发子 agent 的 DAG);单会话内顺序执行则自己逐步做 凡正文出现上述名字,一律换成 deepx 的对应工具。

IF A SKILL APPLIES TO YOUR TASK, YOU DO NOT HAVE A CHOICE. YOU MUST USE IT.

This is not negotiable. This is not optional. You cannot rationalize your way out of this.

Instruction Priority

Superpowers skills override default system prompt behavior, but user instructions always take precedence:

  1. User's explicit instructions (CLAUDE.md, GEMINI.md, AGENTS.md, direct requests) — highest priority
  2. Superpowers skills — override default system behavior where they conflict
  3. Default system prompt — lowest priority

If CLAUDE.md, GEMINI.md, or AGENTS.md says "don't use TDD" and a skill says "always use TDD," follow the user's instructions. The user is in control.

How to Access Skills

In Claude Code: Use the Skill tool. When you invoke a skill, its content is loaded and presented to you—follow it directly. Never use the Read tool on skill files.

In Copilot CLI: Use the skill tool. Skills are auto-discovered from installed plugins. The skill tool works the same as Claude Code's Skill tool.

In Gemini CLI: Skills activate via the activate_skill tool. Gemini loads skill metadata at session start and activates the full content on demand.

In other environments: Check your platform's documentation for how skills are loaded.

What ships with it

1 file beside SKILL.md in the same directory: the scripts, references and assets a skill reads on demand. Not counted in the per-session cost; read them before you install if any of them is executable.

Changes

What this file has done since we first saw it

Hashed on every crawl. A supply-chain change to an agent config is a question of when, not whether, so the history is kept rather than the latest state alone.
