Superpowers Lab
When to Use
- You want to evaluate an experimental workflow from the upstream Superpowers lab before adopting it.
- You need a reproducible comparison of baseline behavior and a proposed skill.
Workflow
- Select one experiment from the upstream lab. Read its instructions, status, prerequisites, and license before using it; this entry does not bundle the lab's experiments.
- Define a small representative task, success criteria, time/cost limits, and the files/tools each run may access. Use disposable fixtures and no production credentials.
- Record the baseline agent/tool configuration and run the task without the experimental skill. Capture outputs, observed failures, and validation results.
- Review the experiment's complete content and any commands before loading it. Run the same task with the experimental skill in an isolated workspace under the same permissions and acceptance criteria.
- Compare the actual outputs and failures. Separate observed improvements from subjective preferences; record changed model/tool settings as confounders.
- Decide whether to retain, revise, or reject the experiment. Keep production adoption separate from the lab run, and include a rollback/removal plan if adoption is proposed.
Example
Compare one lab workflow against our baseline on a disposable bug-fix fixture. Report tests and failure modes without installing it globally.
