Process Over Guessing.
Design First → Plan Atomic → Implementation with TDD → Verification with Hard Proof.
AI coding agents are powerful but often undisciplined. They might:
- ❌ Dive into code without understanding the "Why"
- ❌ Add extra features nobody asked for (scope creep)
- ❌ Skip tests or provide "trust me, it works" claims
- ❌ Get stuck in circular debugging loops
Superpowers provides the Standard Operating Procedure (SOP) that wraps agents in a professional engineering lifecycle, ensuring consistent, robust, and verifiable results.
The fastest way to install the Superpowers methodology into your project:
npx github:SriSatyaLokesh/superpowers-for-antigravityManual Installation (Standard Workflow)
# 1. Download the superpowers library to a temporary folder
git clone https://github.com/SriSatyaLokesh/superpowers-for-antigravity.git powers-temp
# 2. Copy the core logic into your project root (./)
xcopy /E /I powers-temp\.agent .agent
xcopy /E /I powers-temp\.gemini .gemini
xcopy /E /I powers-temp\adapters adapters
copy powers-temp\PROJECT_RULES.md .\
copy powers-temp\SUPERPOWER-STYLE.md .\
# 3. Cleanup the temporary folder
Remove-Item -Recurse -Force powers-temp# 1. Download the superpowers library to a temporary folder
git clone https://github.com/SriSatyaLokesh/superpowers-for-antigravity.git powers-temp
# 2. Copy the core logic into your project root (./)
cp -r powers-temp/.agent ./
cp -r powers-temp/.gemini ./
cp -r powers-temp/adapters ./
cp powers-temp/PROJECT_RULES.md ./
cp powers-temp/SUPERPOWER-STYLE.md ./
# 3. Cleanup the temporary folder
rm -rf powers-temp[!NOTE] The
./or.\in these commands refers to the root of your project. Using a temporarypowers-tempfolder ensures we only copy the necessary files without polluting your git history with the Superpowers library's own internal git metadata.
Once installed, simply send /help or Superpowers help to your Antigravity agent.
If you are new to the Superpowers methodology, we highly recommend following this path:
- Read the Workflow Guideline: A visual and step-by-step primer on the methodology.
- Explore the Example Project: See exactly how PRDs, designs, plans, and code look in a real scenario.
- Run
/help: Get a list of commands available in your current session.

We've synthesized the best skills from across the agentic ecosystem:
- Codebase Mapping: Total system understanding before making changes.
- Context Fetch: Smart retrieval to prevent context pollution.
- Context Health Monitor: Proactive detection of AI "hallucination thresholds."
- Empirical Validation: Requiring hard proof (logs/screenshots) for every task.
- Webapp Testing: Professional Playwright-based frontend verification.
- MCP Builder: Guided creation of Model Context Protocol servers.
- Frontend Design: Stunning, production-grade UI components with rich aesthetics.
- Web Artifacts: Complex React/Tailwind/shadcn dashboard generation.

- PROJECT_RULES.md: The "Constitution" of the Superpowers workflow.
- SUPERPOWER-STYLE.md: Standards for documentation and agent communication.
- Workflow Guideline: (NEW) visual guide to the core methodology.
- Example Project: (NEW) End-to-end demonstration of the workflow in action.
- PRD.md: The original Product Requirements Document for this integration.
- INSTALL.md: Detailed installation guide for all environments.
docs/plans/: Recommended directory for all design and implementation artifacts.
- Never Skip Brainstorming: Even for "simple" fixes, the
/brainstormphase prevents logic errors. - Aggressive Atomicity: Keep tasks under 5 minutes. If it's longer, break it down.
- Hard Proof Only: Never accept "it should work." Require captured evidence.
- Clean State Check: Use
/helpor/resumeto ensure the agent has loaded the process correctly at the start of a session.
Superpowers for Antigravity is designed to be fully compatible with the GSD-for-Antigravity methodology.
- Synergy: Use GSD for high-level project management (
SPEC.md,ROADMAP.md) and Superpowers for the low-level implementation cycle (/brainstorm,/plan). - Shared Skills: Both frameworks share core context-management and verification skills, ensuring a unified experience.
If you want to update the version available via npx, follow these steps:
The command npx github:SriSatyaLokesh/superpowers-for-antigravity works immediately after you push to the main branch. No extra publishing step is required!
To allow users to just run npx superpowers-for-antigravity, you must publish to the NPM registry:
- Login:
npm login - Version Update:
npm version patch(or minor/major) - Publish:
npm publish --access public
This project honors its roots and peers:
- Superpowers (Original): By obra. The pioneer of process-wrapped skills.
- GSD for Antigravity: By toonight. The primary architectural inspiration for the Antigravity adapter and
.agentstructure. - Anthropic Skills: For the high-quality technical capability templates.
