init SKILL.md skillA

init from procoders/superpowers-v is an agent skill: a SKILL.md folder an AI agent loads when a task calls for it.

Install it, pinned
mdr add procoders/superpowers-v/init@git:20261022.cf63e43

Pins git:20261022.cf63e43 in mdr.lock. Pin the fingerprint instead.

Sets up Compound V in this project. Probes git, Python, Codex, a browser runner and Superpowers; picks the reviewer and test command; writes .claude/compound-v.json and the two native project settings Compound V relies on (worktree base and run-record protection). Every write is shown as a diff and applied only on the user's yes. Run once per project, and again after installing Codex or Playwright.

Collected from public GitHub. Every version is saved exactly as it was and never changes. Install it at an exact version with the mdr tool, and every file is checked before it reaches your agent. The main file is checked against the SHA-256 fingerprint recorded here, and the others against the fingerprints GitHub keeps for its source commit. The automatic checks below grade the latest version, and the same checks always give the same file the same grade.

What the file says

# Init

Set up this project for the Compound V cycle (brainstorm → build, where one builder researches, plans and codes → verify). Probe everything first, then show the user **one** message with the findings and every proposed change, numbered, and apply only what they approve. With `--check`, probe and report, and write nothing.

**Commands.** Run each command as one plain command line with literal values (the run id, real paths): no shell variables you set yourself, no `;` or `&&` chains, no `$?`, and no pipes or redirects (`|`, `>`, `2>&1`): the one exception is the `<<'REQUEST'` heredoc that hands `run start` its request. The sandbox's auto-allow refuses compound commands, and `sandbox.excludedCommands` only matches a bare call.

## 1. Probes (write nothing)

Run these and keep the results:

```bash
git rev-parse --show-toplevel                                     # a git repo
git rev-parse --verify -q HEAD                                    # with a first commit
python3 -c 'import sys; print(sys.version_info >= (3, 9))'      # True
codex --version                                                   # reviewer candidate
…

How to install

The exact contents, by fingerprint
mdr add procoders/superpowers-v/init@sha256:dfb2a0bbf51d582d

The line at the top of this page pins the label git:20261022.cf63e43, which is what most people want. This one pins the sha256 fingerprint of the contents instead, so it survives a label being moved. Either way the exact version is written to mdr.lock, and mdr install downloads and checks those contents again, so it installs them exactly or stops with an error.
