Does superpowers actually work? The main skill file doesn't inspire much confidence:

    "If you think there is even a 1% chance a skill might apply to what you are doing, you ABSOLUTELY MUST invoke the skill."


This kind of "overprompting" is one technique that even the best skills/agents use to compensate for under-invocation, which happens when more demure advisory language tends to be rationalized away by LLMs.

It shouldn't be your default, but should absolutely be tried when your skill/agent test suite displays evidence that it's not being reliably invoked without it.
