FAQPage Schema
How do I load and apply meta-skills before starting a task?▼

Meta-skills resolve skill conflicts by applying a defined priority hierarchy, favoring rigid skills over flexible ones. The hierarchy strictly prioritizes user instructions first, followed by meta-skills, and then default AI behavior.

What is the priority hierarchy for resolving conflicts between task management skills?▼

Task preparation uses meta-skills to ensure all relevant skills are loaded and reviewed before any action is taken. This structured guidance improves the quality and efficiency of task execution by preparing the AI beforehand.

How do I execute meta-skill application for task initiation?▼

When no applicable skills are found in the /agents/superpowers/ directory, the system falls back to default AI behavior. This ensures task execution continues smoothly even without specific meta-skill guidance.

When do I need to use meta-skills for task execution?▼

No, you do not need additional dependencies to use meta-skills. The system operates independently by loading and reviewing relevant SKILL.md files from the /agents/superpowers/ directory at the start of any task.
