- # Using Superpowers
-
- ## Overview
-
- Invoke relevant skills BEFORE any response or action. Even a 1% chance means invoke the skill.
-
- ## The Rule
-
- Check for applicable skills before any task. Skills are mandatory workflows, not suggestions.
-
- ## Skill Priority
-
- 1. **Process skills first** (brainstorming, debugging) - determine HOW to approach

+ workflows: [workflow:feature-development]
+ topics: [topic:developer-experience]
+ roles: [role:tech-lead, role:backend-engineer]
2. **Implementation skills second** - guide execution
## Skill Types
- **Rigid** (TDD, debugging) - Follow exactly
- **Flexible** (patterns) - Adapt principles to context
## Red Flags
- "This is just a simple question" - questions are tasks, check for skills
- "I need more context first" - skill check comes BEFORE clarifying questions
- "The skill is overkill" - simple things become complex, use it
## Tool Use
Meta-skill for the overall methodology. Ensures skills are always checked and invoked.
