superself

Use when a project keeps its state in Superself (a `<!-- superself:begin` block in AGENTS.md or CLAUDE.md, or `self setup` resolves the directory to a registered project): read `self context` at session start, attach work to a work unit, report with evidence, and record confirmed decisions so the next session picks up where this one left off.

Frequently asked questions about superself

What does the superself skill do?

Use when a project keeps its state in Superself (a `<!-- superself:begin` block in AGENTS.md or CLAUDE.md, or `self setup` resolves the directory to a registered project): read `self context` at session start, attach work to a work unit, report with evidence, and record confirmed decisions so the next session picks up where this one left off. It's a reusable SKILL.md instruction set that loads into your AI coding assistant on demand, no prompt engineering, no copy-pasting every session.

How do I install the superself skill?

Run `npx @skills-hub-ai/cli install wshobson-agents-superself` from your terminal. The CLI writes the SKILL.md to the correct location for your AI tool (e.g. ~/.claude/skills/wshobson-agents-superself/ for Claude Code or ~/.cursor/skills/ for Cursor with --target cursor) and adds it to your project's .skills.json lockfile.

Which AI tools does superself work with?

superself runs in Claude Code. It follows the open Agent Skills standard (SKILL.md), so the same skill works in every supported tool without modification.

Is the superself skill free?

Yes. Every skill on skills-hub.ai is free and open-source. There are no premium tiers, paywalls, or usage limits. You only pay for whatever AI assistant you're already using.

How do I use superself after installing it?

In Claude Code, type `/wshobson-agents-superself` (or whatever slash command the skill registers) and the AI follows the skill's instructions immediately. You can also reference it by name in natural language, your AI loads the skill into context when relevant.

Can I share the superself skill with my team?

Yes. Commit your project's .skills.json lockfile and teammates run `npx @skills-hub-ai/cli install` (no args) to install every skill at the exact version you pinned. Organization-scoped installs work via skills-hub.ai organizations.
