Superpowers

Self

Open-source tool. Self-hosted setup.

An agentic skills framework and software development methodology that works.

Built by Jesse Vincent (obra), Superpowers is the reference implementation for teaching coding agents durable, reusable working habits instead of one-off prompts. It packages a disciplined engineering methodology — brainstorming, TDD, systematic debugging, code review — into skills the agent invokes on its own, and it is the most-starred entry in the entire agent-skills ecosystem.

Full software development lifecycle covered: planning, TDD, debugging, review, and shipping
Skills are self-discovering — the agent decides when to load one, no manual invocation needed
Ships a writing-skills meta-skill so teams can extend the framework with their own house rules
Works across Claude Code and compatible harnesses; MIT licensed

Things to Know About Self-Hosted

Self-hosted tools are open-source apps you install on your own server to replace SaaS products. You get full control and often zero license cost, but you're responsible for setup, security, backups, and uptime.

Caution: You might need capable hosting or a VPS
Caution: Setup requires technical experience
Caution: You manage updates and patches
Caution: Security and backups are your job
Caution: Uptime depends on your server
Caution: Scaling may need extra work
