SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

What problem does it solve?

It prevents missed workflows by forcing an early, mandatory Skill check before any response, including clarifying questions, so the assistant follows the repository’s intended operating procedures.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • Mandatory pre-response Skill invocation: Ensures you consult applicable Skills before responding or taking action.
  • Skill discovery and execution flow: Guides how to invoke the Skill tool in Claude Code and how to behave in other environments.
  • Rule-based decision discipline: Provides red flags to stop rationalization, plus a priority order for choosing between process and implementation Skills.

Quick Start

Invoke the using-superpowers Skill immediately, then follow it to decide whether any other relevant Skill must be invoked before responding.

FAQPage Schema
How do I ensure Claude Code checks for applicable skills before responding to a prompt?▼

To ensure Claude Code checks for applicable skills before responding, you need a mandatory pre-response skill invocation workflow that triggers tool usage automatically at conversation start to verify relevant operational procedures.

What is a mandatory skill invocation workflow in assistant startup routines?▼

A mandatory skill invocation workflow is an operational rule requiring an assistant to consult the Skill tool before generating any user-facing response or action, ensuring correct workflow routing and preventing missed procedural steps.

How do I stop an AI assistant from skipping workflow routing and rationalizing direct answers?▼

You can stop an AI from skipping workflow routing by applying rule-based decision discipline with red flags that halt rationalization and enforce a priority order for choosing between process and implementation skills.

Does enforcing prompt discipline require checking skills even for clarifying questions?▼

Yes, enforcing prompt discipline requires invoking the Skill tool before providing clarifying questions or any other response, ensuring the assistant follows repository intended operating procedures whenever another skill might be relevant.

What are the limitations of forcing skill tool usage in every conversation turn?▼

The limitation of forcing skill tool usage is that it applies strictly to environments supporting tool invocation and requires adherence to priority rules, meaning it cannot operate in environments where direct file reading is the only option.
