Frequently asked questions
Which Superpowers workflow should I start with?
Use brainstorming when requirements are still open. For a reproducible defect, ask for systematic debugging. For an agreed change with clear expected behavior, ask for the test-driven development workflow.
Why can’t I find Superpowers after installing?
Check that your Claude client is supported and that you installed the plugin in the workspace or project you have open. In Claude Code, run /reload-plugins or reopen the session.
