Jesse Vincent affa7fa4e2 feat: add diagnosing-superpowers skill
Evidence-based diagnosis of superpowers sessions: intake with the human
partner, safe transcript reading for Claude Code and Codex (discovery
procedure for other harnesses), seven analyst subagents, a report with
path:line evidence and a bounded superpowers-involvement line, scrubbed
export bundles, approval-gated GitHub issue search/draft, and
similar-session search. Includes spec, plan, structure test, and README
and docs index lines.

Developed RED-GREEN-REFACTOR per writing-skills: 46 scored scenario runs
across five SKILL.md versions, all twelve scenarios clean against the
final version, micro-tests control 5/5 to skill 0/5 on both
baseline-failing prohibitions, and one end-to-end run. Eval records are
kept by the maintainer outside the repo.

Raw Blame History

Session diagnosis:

Report path: ~/.superpowers/diagnosing-superpowers//report.md Written:

1. Problem statement (REQUIRED)

2. Triage verdict (REQUIRED)

<What the evidence shows happened around the reported problem. Prose, with path:line after every claim. State confidence: high / medium / low, and what would raise it. No statement about what superpowers should do.>

3. Environment (REQUIRED)

  • OS:
  • Harness and version:
  • Models seen:
  • Superpowers install root / version / git sha:
  • Skill files read or injected (sha1 table from the case file):
  • Other plugins, extensions, MCP servers:
  • Instruction files present (paths only):

4. Sessions examined (REQUIRED)

Role Session id Absolute path Lines Bytes

Rejected candidates: <id — path — why>, or "none".

5. Timeline (REQUIRED)

One row per human-typed prompt. Events column lists skills invoked, subagents dispatched, compaction, errors, resumes, aborts.

Turn Line Time Request (one line) Events

6. Findings (REQUIRED, one subsection per dimension)

Each finding:

- finding: <one sentence>
  evidence: <path:line> — "<short quote>"
  turns: <first><last>
  confidence: high | medium | low

A dimension with nothing to report says none found — checked: <what was checked>.

6.1 Skill timeline

6.2 Plan adherence

6.3 Repeated work

6.4 Stumbles

6.5 Quality evidence

6.6 Request conflicts

6.7 Cost and time

6.8 Other plugins and skills used

7. Superpowers involvement (REQUIRED)

not indicated | possible | likely

Evidence lines: <path:line list>. This section states involvement only. It does not name a defect and does not propose a change.

8. Coverage notes (REQUIRED)

  • Not read: <ranges, files, and why>
  • Harness features unavailable:
  • Session was in progress at read time: yes/no
  • For your human partner to double-check:

9. Similar sessions (only when requested)
