●●SolidBig BrainWizardry

Enforces TDD and design gates on Copilot before any code gets written.

Strengths
  • Worker-pool scheduler dispatches tasks to isolated subagents for parallel execution.
  • Rigid skills enforce RED-GREEN-REFACTOR cycles preventing skipped testing phases.
  • Live task graph visualizer helps track agentic workflow and parallelism.
Weaknesses
  • Requires GitHub Copilot CLI, limiting audience to paid subscribers.
  • Complex workflow may be overkill for simple coding tasks or quick fixes.

Post Description

A few months ago I stumbled on obra's superpowers repository https://github.com/obra/superpowers. I really liked the approach and idea that you enforce discipline for your agent through a skill-based workflow. Even though coding agents (copilot included) have become a lot better at natively handling complex tasks, they still wander off and lose track of things. I really liked how superpowers fixed this and how it enabled long-running sessions without the agent losing its "focus". So I decided to build a Copilot tailored skill suite around the core idea of superpowers. I didn't just want to port superpowers to Copilot, I took inspiration from it and improved on it. JDS enforces a strict think -> plan -> execute pipeline where nothing gets skipped. It leverages Copilot's built-in sql todo dependencies and provides a live task graph visualizer which helps visualize the agentic workflow and its parallelism. Curious whether others have tried similar approaches, and what's worked or not.
