what it does for you
superpowers is a claude code plugin of skills for planning, test-driven development and debugging. colonizer stages 13 of its 15 skills, read-only and mounted outside the colony worktree, so its files are not part of the worktree the pull request is made from.
what it needs
- the claude code settler
how to turn it on
settings → skillsets: switch on superpowers. an org workspace can switch it for its own colonies.
how far it has been tested
real claude code has loaded it on real hardware, against a stub gateway; it has not run in a colony yet.
how colonizer runs it
- pinned by sha256 in vendor.lock (tag v6.4.2)
- mounted read-only at /opt/colonizer/plugins/superpowers, outside the colony worktree
- its one hook is removed as with ecc; the text it injects (skills/using-superpowers/SKILL.md) is appended to the system prompt instead, inside the hook's own <EXTREMELY_IMPORTANT> wrapper, so it survives compaction
- using-git-worktrees and finishing-a-development-branch are not staged: they would open another worktree or pull request around the ones the colony already owns, and the appended text says they are missing on purpose
what it costs
596 kb staged of the 2.4 mb source; no download or memory figure is recorded beyond that.
