Using Superpowers
The starter skill that teaches Claude to find and use the right skill every time.
Part of Superpowers by @obra ↗Using Superpowers is the foundation of the whole collection. It sets the ground rules for how Claude finds and reaches for the right skill at the right moment — checking for a relevant skill before it answers, even before asking clarifying questions. Install this one first to get the most out of every other Superpowers skill.
What it does
- Teaches Claude to look for a relevant skill before responding to anything.
- Establishes how skills are found and used across a conversation.
- Makes the rest of the Superpowers collection work as intended.
What's in the download
- SKILL.md — the framework’s entry-point skill.
