"Superpowers" Framework: Giving Agents Muscle Memory
A new repo, `obra/superpowers`, is trending #1 on GitHub. It solves the biggest problem with AI agents: Amnesia. It injects persistent 'muscle memory' scripts into your agent.

It's essentially a package manager for agent behaviors. You can npm install @superpowers/postgres-admin and suddenly your agent knows exactly how to query, optimize, and index your database. It's not just a prompt; it's a runtime library of capabilities.
We are moving away from the monolithic 'System Prompt' (the giant block of text telling the AI who it is) to modular 'Skill Injection.' Superpowers allows you to dynamically load and unload skills based on the task, keeping the context window clean.

Of course, this introduces a new problem: Dependency Hell for Agents. What happens when @superpowers/react conflicts with @superpowers/vue? Managing the 'mental environment' of an agent is the new DevOps challenge.
This is becoming the standard interface for agent capabilities. If you're building an agent in 2026, you're not writing prompts; you're writing Superpowers.
