Superpowers
A complete software-development methodology that makes coding agents clarify requirements, plan, test-drive changes, review work, and verify completion.
What is Superpowers?
Superpowers is obra's composable skill framework and software-development methodology for coding agents. Its core workflow moves from brainstorming and an approved design into bite-sized implementation plans, isolated worktrees, subagent execution, red-green-refactor testing, code review, and verification before completion. The project supports Claude Code, Codex, Cursor, Copilot, Gemini CLI, and other agent harnesses.
Best for
Engineering teams that want coding agents to follow an explicit planning, test-driven implementation, review, and verification workflow.
Not for
Quick exploratory prototypes where the full specification, testing, worktree, and review sequence would add more process than the task warrants.
