Fine to try. Some of what it can do is expected: a coding skill usually runs build and test commands.

Use when a superpowers session went wrong and your human partner wants to know why — repeated work, ignored plans, stumbles, poor results, a skill that didn't fire, "it took too long", "why is it so expensive", "what is it doing" — or wants to build a bug report for the superpowers maintainers, for the current session or a past one identified by id or path, on any harness.

Works with any agent that supports SKILL.md skills.

What this skill can do

Install

Paste this into your terminal. It downloads exactly the version we scanned, not whatever is newest.

if [ -e ~/.agents/skills/'diagnosing-superpowers' ] || [ -L ~/.agents/skills/'diagnosing-superpowers' ]; then echo 'A skill folder named diagnosing-superpowers already exists — not replacing it' >&2; false; else d=$(mktemp -d) && git clone --quiet --filter=blob:none --no-checkout 'https://github.com/obra/superpowers' "$d" && git -C "$d" checkout --quiet '22f0b463e7a5e579904dd6211a520321035526f7' -- 'skills/diagnosing-superpowers' && mkdir -p ~/.agents/skills && cp -R "$d"/'skills/diagnosing-superpowers' ~/.agents/skills/'diagnosing-superpowers' && rm -rf "$d"; fi

Codex reads ~/.agents/skills directly. For Claude Code, Cursor, Copilot, Gemini CLI, Antigravity or OpenCode, also link it. For Claude Code: ln -s ~/.agents/skills/'diagnosing-superpowers' ~/.claude/skills/'diagnosing-superpowers' (other agents: ~/.cursor/skills, ~/.copilot/skills, ~/.gemini/skills, ~/.gemini/config/skills, ~/.config/opencode/skills). Or install through the finder skill, which does both.
