A route-first bootstrap trigger
The candidate front-loads route, startup, compaction, requested Skill, and trigger-match branches so the main agent scans the correct process entry before acting.
Superpowers Skills ยท Development methodology suite
Start with the right process, then carry it through to verification.
Superpowers remains a complete plugin suite: 14 member Skills, startup routing, host adapters, scripts, tests, docs, hooks, and assets. The optimized bootstrap Skill clarifies startup, compaction, routing, and the Skill gate.
Superpowers is Jesse Vincent's complete software-development methodology plugin, composed of 14 first-party Skills plus startup, host, script, test, and documentation depth.
The candidate front-loads route, startup, compaction, requested Skill, and trigger-match branches so the main agent scans the correct process entry before acting.
The bootstrap now gives a single sequence for scanning, invoking, announcing, and following applicable Skills before the response or action.
Startup, compaction, process-versus-implementation order, platform references, and instruction precedence stay visible at the routing boundary.
All 14 member Skills and the 180-entry natural package boundary stay available; only the bootstrap Skill and synchronized derivative version fields changed.
The bootstrap Skill scans explicit requests and trigger matches before any action, including exploration or clarification.
Brainstorming, planning, implementation, review, debugging, verification, and branch finishing remain independent members.
Hooks, host manifests, scripts, docs, tests, assets, and the repository install path remain in the 180-entry source package.
Direct instructions, installed Skill content, platform references, and defaults keep their declared order.
Route brainstorming, planning, implementation, and verification in the intended sequence.
Invoke systematic debugging before changing the implementation and finish with verification.
Use review, branch-finishing, and completion Skills as separate process boundaries.

The full 180-entry package remains intact; no session transcript is included in this release edition.
