A skill your agent uses when starting a task in Cursor and deciding whether to apply one of the companion skills in this pack before exploring, planning, editing, or reviewing.

  • Starting a task in Cursor and deciding whether to apply one of the companion skills in this pack before exploring

  • Instructions only: no scripts, shell commands, URLs or credentials in SKILL.md

What it does

Using Superpowers is an agent skill from 6BNBN/FlowPilot. Use when starting a task in Cursor and deciding whether to apply one of the companion skills in this pack before exploring, planning, editing, or reviewing.

Its SKILL.md is about 270 tokens, which your agent loads only when the skill is triggered. It is a single SKILL.md file with no bundled scripts.

It sits in Agent Workflows. The repository describes itself as: 一句需求,自动拆任务、并行多代理写码、断点恢复、验证收尾。FlowPilot 让 Claude Code / Codex / Cursor / snow-cli 进入真正的自动开发流程。 The licence is MIT.

When your agent uses it

  • Starting a task in Cursor and deciding whether to apply one of the companion skills in this pack before exploring

Example prompts

  • “/using-superpowers”

What it can do on your machine

Read from SKILL.md and the folder at commit 57b1d49. It shows what the files ask for, not the result of running them.

  • Tool permissions

    Pre-approves nothing: there is no allowed-tools line, so your agent's usual permission prompts apply.

    From allowed-tools in the SKILL.md frontmatter.

  • Runs code

    No scripts in the folder and no shell commands in SKILL.md.

    From the folder's file list and the shell code blocks in SKILL.md.

  • Network

    No URLs in SKILL.md.

    From URLs in SKILL.md, links to its own repository left out.

  • Credentials

    Names no API keys, tokens, secrets or passwords.

    From names ending in _API_KEY, _TOKEN, _SECRET, _KEY or _PASSWORD in SKILL.md.

Context cost

Using Superpowers loads about 271 tokens when it runs. Until then it costs about 44 tokens; SKILL.md has 110 words of instructions outside code blocks.

Always · name and description, kept in context so the agent knows when to use it
~44
When it runs · the whole SKILL.md, loaded when a task matches
~271

Estimates: characters ÷ 4, the usual rule of thumb; real counts depend on the model's tokenizer. Scripts and assets cost tokens only if the agent reads them.

Safety

Auto-check passed

The automated check found no risky patterns in SKILL.md.

Automated static check — not a guarantee. Review scripts before installing. It scans the text of SKILL.md for risky patterns (piping downloads into a shell, reading credential files, hidden Unicode, destructive commands); files beside SKILL.md are not scanned.

Using Superpowers

Goal

Choose the right skill before substantial work begins.

Cursor-Specific Notes

  • Personal custom skills live in ~/.cursor/skills/.
  • Project skills live in .cursor/skills/.
  • Do not rely on ~/.cursor/skills-cursor/; that directory is reserved for Cursor's built-in skills.

Quick Triage

  • Ambiguous request or design-heavy work: use brainstorming.
  • New feature or behavior change: use feature-dev.
  • UI or landing page work: use frontend-design.
  • Bug or failing test: use systematic-debugging and often test-driven-development.
  • Review request: use code-review.
  • Need a formal plan: use writing-plans.
  • About to report success: use verification-before-completion.

Practical Rule

If a skill clearly matches the task, follow that skill instead of improvising. If none fit, work normally and keep the solution simple.
