// Agent profile
obra/superpowers is the framework-and-methodology layer of the agent-skills movement. While [mattpocock/skills](/agents/mattpocock-skills) is one engineer's personal working set and ComposioHQ/awesome-codex-skills is a community list, superpowers ships as a complete framework: a skills directory plus the methodology for using it. The repo's tagline — 'agentic skills framework & software development methodology that works' — is load-bearing. It is the highest-base agent-skills repo in GitHub trending with 252K total stars (well above the rest of the agent-skills cluster), and held #4 on trending for two consecutive days in late April 2026 with steady +1,600/day growth. The methodology layer addresses what most personal-skills repos leave implicit: how to choose which problems should become skills vs stay in code, how to chain skills together, how to evaluate a skill's effectiveness over time, and how to govern a growing skills library across a team. For teams adopting agent-skills as a production primitive, superpowers is the closest thing to a canonical reference framework available in 2026.
obra/superpowers ships the framework layer that personal-skills repos leave implicit: how to choose which engineering problems should become skills, how to compose skills into workflows, and how to govern a skills library as it grows.
The repo combines a working skills directory with the methodology behind it. For teams adopting agent skills as a production primitive — not just as a personal productivity hack — superpowers is the closest thing to a canonical reference framework available in 2026.
The skills-as-runtime thesis only works at scale if there’s a discipline for managing skills like any other production code. obra/superpowers makes that discipline explicit:
Pairs naturally with mattpocock/skills (reference implementation), warp (runtime), and cc-switch (cross-runtime portability).
Builder.io's open-source framework for building agent-native applications — shared actions, SQL-backed state, identity, tools, skills, jobs, observability, and UI surfaces that all work together.
CLI orchestration tool that installs and configures platform connectors for 16+ social and web sources — Twitter/X, Reddit, YouTube, GitHub, Bilibili, and more. Zero API fees.
Persistent memory layer for AI coding agents — benchmark-backed (95.2% on LongMemEval-S), 92% fewer tokens per session vs full-context pasting, zero manual memory.add() calls.
