**/writing-plans**
Use when you have a spec or requirements for a multi-step task, before touching code /writing-plans](https://skilld.dev/gh/obra/superpowers/writing-plans)
Updated last week
[
**/brainstorming**
You MUST use this before any creative work - creating features, building components, adding functionality, or modifying behavior. Explores user intent, requirements and design before implementation. /brainstorming](https://skilld.dev/gh/obra/superpowers/brainstorming)

**/diagnosing-superpowers**
Use when a superpowers session went wrong and your human partner wants to know why โ repeated work, ignored plans, stumbles, poor results, a skill that didn't fire, "it took too long", "why is it so expensive", "what is it doing" โ or wants to build a bug report for the superpowers maintainers, for the current session or a past one identified by id or path, on any harness. /diagnosing-superpowers](https://skilld.dev/gh/obra/superpowers/diagnosing-superpowers)
Updated 2 weeks ago
[
**/executing-plans**
Use when executing an implementation plan in the current session as the implementer yourself โ your human partner chose inline execution, or no subagent tool is available /executing-plans](https://skilld.dev/gh/obra/superpowers/executing-plans)

[
**/requesting-code-review**
Use when completing tasks, implementing major features, or before merging to verify work meets requirements /requesting-code-review](https://skilld.dev/gh/obra/superpowers/requesting-code-review)

**/subagent-driven-development**
Use when executing implementation plans with independent tasks in the current session /subagent-driven-development](https://skilld.dev/gh/obra/superpowers/subagent-driven-development)
Updated 2 weeks ago
[
**/test-driven-development**
Use when implementing any feature or bugfix, before writing implementation code /test-driven-development](https://skilld.dev/gh/obra/superpowers/test-driven-development)

**/using-superpowers**
Use when starting any conversation - establishes how to find and use skills, requiring skill invocation before ANY response including clarifying questions /using-superpowers](https://skilld.dev/gh/obra/superpowers/using-superpowers)

[
**/writing-skills**
Use when creating new skills, editing existing skills, or verifying skills work before deployment /writing-skills](https://skilld.dev/gh/obra/superpowers/writing-skills)

**/finishing-a-development-branch**
Use when implementation is complete, all tests pass, and you need to decide how to integrate the work /finishing-a-development-branch](https://skilld.dev/gh/obra/superpowers/finishing-a-development-branch)
Updated 2 months ago
[
**/receiving-code-review**
Use when receiving code review feedback, before implementing suggestions, especially if feedback seems unclear or technically questionable - requires technical rigor and verification, not performative agreement or blind implementation /receiving-code-review](https://skilld.dev/gh/obra/superpowers/receiving-code-review)
Updated 3 months ago
[
**/using-git-worktrees**
Use when starting feature work that needs isolation from current workspace or before executing implementation plans - ensures an isolated workspace exists via native tools or git worktree fallback /using-git-worktrees](https://skilld.dev/gh/obra/superpowers/using-git-worktrees)

[
**/verification-before-completion**
Use when about to claim work is complete, fixed, or passing, before committing or creating PRs - requires running verification commands and confirming output before making any success claims; evidence before assertions always /verification-before-completion](https://skilld.dev/gh/obra/superpowers/verification-before-completion)
