A DeepSeek Harness edition of the Superpowers skill pack: TDD, debugging, planning, and collaboration skills ported from obra/superpowers, installed as a Cordis plugin that registers 14 skills (zero runtime dependencies).

Skill

Install

dsh plugin --profile web add superpowers-dsh

What it does

Ports the core skills of obra/superpowers (TDD, debugging, planning, collaboration patterns) onto DSH's plugin architecture, so DSH users can use this methodology too.

Features

  • Ports core skills including TDD, debugging, planning, and collaboration patterns
  • Registers a skill provider at the host layer of the ctx.skills registry, which the scope chain of every agent preset can merge
  • Skill text is distributed with the package and located via import.meta.url; no user configuration needed
  • Explicit notes on DSH version compatibility

Good fit for

  • You want to use the Superpowers methodology but work mainly in DSH
  • You need skills that are uniformly available across presets
  • You want to learn how a Cordis plugin registers skills

Advice

  • Confirm your DSH version is within the compatible range before installing
  • Try one or two skills first; do not enable everything
  • It is not a complete port of upstream; see the documentation for the specific skill list

Cautions

  • Upstream updates require the plugin to follow along; it may lag
  • Registering at the host layer affects all sessions, so problems have broad reach
  • It overlaps functionally with installing the original superpowers directly
