Superpowers for Copilot Chat

Bring Superpowers skills to GitHub Copilot Chat in VS Code. A structured set of AI workflows for brainstorming, TDD, debugging, planning, code review, and more.

Requirements

VS Code >= 1.90.0
GitHub Copilot extension

Usage

Invoke skills using the @superpowers chat participant with a slash command:

@superpowers /brainstorming  — Design a feature before writing code
@superpowers /tdd            — Implement with Test-Driven Development
@superpowers /debug          — Systematically debug unexpected behavior
@superpowers /plan           — Write a detailed implementation plan
@superpowers /verify         — Confirm work is done before claiming complete

Type @superpowers (no command) to see all available skills.

Custom Skills

Add your own skills by placing SKILL.md files in ~/.copilot/skills/superpowers/ (or configure a custom path in settings). Custom skills are automatically detected without restarting VS Code.

Invoke custom skills with: @superpowers custom <skill-name>
