Brainstorming
Clarify the problem, intended behavior, constraints, and design trade-offs before coding starts.
- Requirement discovery
- Design discussion
- Scope clarification
Plugin capabilities
Claude Superpowers plugin features for disciplined software development.
Superpowers packages reusable development skills that help Claude Code approach a task with more structure before, during, and after implementation.
Implementation planning
Convert the approved direction into smaller tasks and checkpoints that are easier to execute and review.
- Task decomposition
- Ordered execution
- Verification criteria
Test-driven development
Encourage a red/green/refactor workflow so behavior is demonstrated by tests before the implementation is considered done.
- Failing test first
- Minimal implementation
- Refactor with coverage
Systematic debugging
Investigate evidence and root causes rather than guessing at fixes or changing multiple things at once.
- Reproduce the issue
- Form and test hypotheses
- Verify the final fix
Subagent workflows
Use focused execution and review patterns for work that benefits from being split into smaller independent tasks.
- Scoped tasks
- Review checkpoints
- Plan continuity
Completion and review
Check that implementation, tests, and intended outcomes line up before claiming that a task is finished.
- Evidence-based completion
- Code review habits
- Branch finishing workflows
