The creator of Superpowers gently asked fork maintainers to use their own names, so this Ruby and Rails focused fork now has its own identity while crediting its origin in obra/superpowers by Jesse Vincent. Existing users must migrate their plugin installation: the superpowers-ruby plugin becomes rubypowers, and skill references like superpowers-ruby:brainstorming change to rubypowers:brainstorming. Existing plans and specs under docs/superpowers/ remain supported and don't need to move; new projects should use docs/rubypowers/. The repository has moved to lucianghinda/rubypowers. ## Full article daily.dev links to this article rather than hosting it. Read it at the original source: ## Questions this post answers ### How do I migrate from the superpowers-ruby plugin to rubypowers?
