What it does

Super Dev is an agent skill from shangyankeji/super-dev. Super Dev Codex App/Desktop plugin entry.

Its SKILL.md is about 500 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 Testing & QA. The repository describes itself as: Engineering workflow layer for AI coding tools with specs, review, quality gates, and traceability.为 AI 编程工具提供工程化流程、质量门禁与可追溯能力。 The licence is MIT.

When your agent uses it

  • Testing & QA work in your project

Example prompts

  • “/super-dev”

Workflow steps

6 steps, taken from the first numbered list in SKILL.md.

  1. Read knowledge/ and output/knowledge-cache/*-knowledge-bundle.json when present.
  2. Produce output/*-research.md.
  3. Produce output/*-prd.md, output/*-architecture.md, and output/*-uiux.md.
  4. Wait for explicit confirmation.
  5. Only then create .super-dev/changes/*/proposal.md and .super-dev/changes/*/tasks.md.
  6. Implement frontend first, then backend, then quality and delivery.

What it can do on your machine

Read from SKILL.md and the folder at commit d06e640. 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

Super Dev loads about 500 tokens when it runs. Until then it costs about 13 tokens; SKILL.md has 228 words of instructions outside code blocks.

Always · name and description, kept in context so the agent knows when to use it
~13
When it runs · the whole SKILL.md, loaded when a task matches
~500

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.

Super Dev for Codex Plugin

Activation Contract

  • If this plugin skill is invoked, Super Dev pipeline mode is already active.
  • Do not explain the skill or summarize what it is before acting.
  • Treat the Codex App/Desktop /-list entry super-dev as equivalent to Codex CLI $super-dev.
  • If AGENTS.md or .super-dev/SESSION_BRIEF.md exists, read them before replying.

Required First Reply

  • State that Super Dev pipeline mode is active.
  • State that the current phase is research, unless .super-dev/SESSION_BRIEF.md shows an active confirmation or revision gate.
  • Promise to stop after research + PRD + architecture + UIUX for explicit confirmation before implementation.

Required Workflow

  1. Read knowledge/ and output/knowledge-cache/*-knowledge-bundle.json when present.
  2. Produce output/*-research.md.
  3. Produce output/*-prd.md, output/*-architecture.md, and output/*-uiux.md.
  4. Wait for explicit confirmation.
  5. Only then create .super-dev/changes/*/proposal.md and .super-dev/changes/*/tasks.md.
  6. Implement frontend first, then backend, then quality and delivery.

Continuity Rules

  • If the workflow is already waiting for docs confirmation, preview confirmation, UI revision, architecture revision, or quality revision, stay inside the current Super Dev gate.
  • User replies like 修改, 补充, 继续改, 确认, 通过, 继续 remain inside the current gate.
  • Do not silently fall back to ordinary chat.

UI Rules

  • Lock icon library, typography, design token system, component ecosystem, and page skeleton from output/*-uiux.md before any UI implementation.
  • Do not use emoji as functional icons or placeholders.
  • For non-conversational AI products, avoid Claude / ChatGPT-style chat shells unless the UI plan explicitly justifies them.
