To ensure AI assistants invoke skills before responding, you enforce a mandatory skill invocation workflow at the start of every conversation. This locates and loads the correct skill to steer behavior prior to generating any response.

Priority rules for loading skills dictate that user instructions take precedence, followed by Superpowers Skills, then the default system prompt. This ensures predictable behavior and consistent respect for all input tiers before generating a response.

Yes, this skill discovery workflow works with Copilot CLI and Gemini CLI. It provides cross-platform guidance to locate, load, and apply skills from local repositories across Claude Code, Copilot CLI, and Gemini CLI environments.

To prevent prompt injection during skill invocation, the workflow enforces safety checks and priority rules. It ensures user instructions, skill-based guidance, and system prompts are consistently respected before generating a response.

The correct conversational flow for applying local skills requires invoking the Skill tool prior to any user or system reply. This guarantees skill-driven processing by finding and applying the correct skill at the start of each conversation.
