Enforces a disciplined workflow by requiring the invocation of relevant skills before any response or action.
The Skill Activation Protocol (using-superpowers) is a meta-skill designed to eliminate shortcuts and ensure maximum efficiency when using Claude Code. It mandates that the AI agent checks for and invokes relevant domain-specific skills at the very beginning of a task, even if the applicability seems marginal. By preventing premature action and forcing a 'skills-first' mindset, it ensures that best practices, checklists, and specialized workflows are never overlooked, leading to higher quality and more consistent code outcomes.
