Frequently Asked Questions
FAQPage SchemaHow to install gemini-superpowers?▼
Run `npx skills add barretstorck/gemini-superpowers --all -g -y` in your terminal to install all skills globally. Note this project is deprecated; the upstream obra/superpowers project now supports Gemini CLI directly.
What does gemini-superpowers do?▼
It gives your coding agent structured workflows for brainstorming, planning, test-driven development, systematic debugging, and code review. Each skill is a tested protocol the agent follows to avoid common mistakes.
Is gemini-superpowers still maintained?▼
No. The project is deprecated and archived because the original Superpowers project now supports Gemini CLI natively. Users are encouraged to install the official upstream extension instead.
How do the debugging and TDD skills work?▼
The systematic-debugging skill forces root-cause investigation before any fix, while the TDD skill requires a failing test before any production code. Both include anti-rationalization rules so the agent cannot skip steps under time pressure.
Can I use these skills without coding experience?▼
Basic familiarity with running a terminal and a coding agent is enough. Once installed, the skills activate automatically and guide the agent through each engineering workflow for you.
