Enforce Skill Usage Workflows
Teams can miss relevant AI skills when work begins quickly. This skill tells Claude, Codex, and Claude Code to check skills first and follow applicable workflows.
Stop for confirmation before installing.
Review the plan and obtain explicit user consent before changing files.
Install with my Agent
Copy this request to your Agent. It includes the canonical Skill page and manifest.
Review the Skillstore skill "using-superpowers" from https://skillstore.io/skills/cygnusfear-using-superpowers.md and its manifest at https://skillstore.io/api/skills/cygnusfear-using-superpowers/manifest. Verify the artifact. Stop and obtain explicit user consent before installing or changing files.Your Agent should still show its plan and request any confirmation required by the security policy.
Agent-readable resources
Use these links when an AI agent, crawler, or script needs clean context instead of reading the full page.
Test it
Using "using-superpowers". Fix a bug in this repository.
Expected outcome:
The assistant checks for debugging or repository skills first, reads any applicable skill, then starts the bug investigation.
Using "using-superpowers". Build a frontend dashboard.
Expected outcome:
The assistant identifies a planning or frontend skill, announces the selected workflow, and follows any checklist before editing files.
Using "using-superpowers". Summarize this document.
Expected outcome:
The assistant confirms no relevant skill applies or uses a writing skill before producing the summary.
Security Audit
High RiskThe static external-command finding is a false positive because the flagged line opens a non-executable Graphviz dot code fence. The skill does contain overbroad mandatory instructions that try to force tool checks before any response, which is a prompt-control risk.

Skillstore Score
Why this score Evidence Confidence: MediumWhat You Can Build
Standardize assistant task starts
Help teams make AI assistants check available workflows before starting new work.
Improve Claude Code routines
Remind coding assistants to use relevant process skills before planning, debugging, or editing.
Test skill orchestration
Give skill authors a simple process layer for checking how other skills are selected.
Try These Prompts
Before answering, check whether any installed skill applies to this request. If one applies, read it and follow its workflow.
Evaluate this task against available skills, name the skill you will use, and explain the first action before continuing.
For this project, decide whether process skills or implementation skills apply first, then execute them in the correct order.
Review the last response for skipped skill checks, missed checklist items, and workflow drift. Then provide corrected next steps.
Best Practices
- Keep the skill available as a process reminder, not a replacement for higher-priority instructions.
- Use it with a curated set of skills so the applicability check remains focused.
- Record which skill was selected before starting complex work.
Avoid
- Treating the skill as higher priority than system, developer, or user instructions.
- Invoking unrelated skills because the threshold is too broad.
- Using the flowchart as a substitute for task-specific judgment.
