SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

💡 This Skill includes references (resource) components.

What problem does it solve? AI agents often skip available skills and improvise answers, producing inconsistent or undisciplined work. This Skill establishes a mandatory rule: check for and invoke relevant skills before any response, including clarifying questions or codebase exploration. ## Core Features & Use Cases - Mandatory Skill-First Rule: Requires invoking any potentially applicable skill before responding, exploring files, or asking questions, with an explicit list of rationalization red flags to stop. - Skill Priority Ordering: Directs process skills (brainstorming, systematic-debugging) to run before implementation skills when multiple skills apply. - Platform Adaptation: Ships reference files mapping generic skill actions (subagent dispatch, todo tracking) to concrete tools on Codex, Pi, and Antigravity harnesses. - Use Case: When a user says "fix this bug", the agent invokes the systematic-debugging skill first rather than jumping straight into editing code. ## Quick Start Start any conversation by checking which skills apply to the request and invoke the matching skill before responding.

High-intent search queries and answers about installing and using this skill.

FAQPage Schema
How do I make an AI agent use skills before responding?▼

Invoke the using-superpowers skill at conversation start. It mandates checking for applicable skills before any response, including clarifying questions or file exploration, and lists rationalization patterns to reject.

What is the correct order when multiple skills apply to a task?▼

Process skills come first because they set the approach, then implementation skills carry it out. For example, brainstorming precedes frontend-design, and systematic-debugging precedes domain-specific fix skills.

Does this skill work with Codex, Pi, and Antigravity harnesses?▼

Yes. It includes reference files mapping generic skill actions to each platform: Codex uses spawn_agent with multi_agent config, Antigravity uses invoke_subagent and task artifacts, and Pi relies on optional subagent extensions.

When can a skill workflow be skipped?▼

Only when the user explicitly instructs otherwise. User instructions in files like CLAUDE.md or AGENTS.md take precedence over skills, which in turn override default agent behavior.

Should subagents follow the using-superpowers skill?▼

No. The skill contains a SUBAGENT-STOP directive: agents dispatched to execute a specific task should ignore it and proceed directly with their assigned work.
