description	Use when shaping a product-development request that should be grilled before Superpowers design and planning.

Grilled Product Dev GetSuperpower

This is the entry skill for the grilled-product-dev GetSuperpower.

When this skill is used, run the workflow below in order. Load/use every required sub-skill before doing the work for its phase.

Loop Runtime

Use the GetSuperpower CLI to track the workflow run. The runtime only prints actions; you still decide and perform the actual work. Use the workflow.json file copied next to this skill as the loop <source> when running from an installed skill directory.

1. Start or resume a run:
   • New run: getsuperpower loop start <source> --json
   • Existing run: getsuperpower loop status <source> --latest --json
2. Before every phase, run getsuperpower loop status <source> --run <run-id> --json.
3. Follow the returned actions and the exact phase instruction.
4. After phase work, log a structured event, for example: getsuperpower loop log <source> --run <run-id> --type phase_result --message "..."
5. When the human gate is satisfied, run getsuperpower loop advance <source> --run <run-id> --json.
6. Repeat status, phase work, log, and advance until the workflow is complete.

The installed entry skill also gets a generated loop.mjs compatibility wrapper, but agents should prefer the CLI command above.

Required Sub-Skills

Before doing workflow work, load/use these skills in order:

1. mattpocock:grilling - interview the human one question at a time and recommend answers until the request is sharp
2. superpowers:brainstorming - turn the approved direction into a design and written spec
3. superpowers:writing-plans - split the approved design into executable tasks

If any required sub-skill is unavailable, stop and tell the user which dependency is missing.

Flow

1. Sharpen the request through Matt Pocock grilling.
   • Skill: mattpocock:grilling
   • Instruction: Ask one grilling question, include your recommended answer, and wait for explicit human approval before advancing.
   • Gate: wait for explicit human approval that the grilled direction is ready.
2. Turn the approved direction into a Superpowers design.
   • Skill: superpowers:brainstorming
   • Instruction: Turn the approved direction into a Superpowers design spec, then wait for explicit human approval before advancing.
   • Gate: wait for explicit human approval of the design and written spec.
3. Write the implementation plan.
   • Skill: superpowers:writing-plans
   • Instruction: Write the approved implementation plan as small executable tasks, then log the plan result.

Author Notes

• Keep this entry skill, workflow.json, and README.md aligned when adding or removing steps.
• superpowers:brainstorming expects superpowers:writing-plans to be the next implementation skill, so grilling runs before brainstorming in this workflow.
• This skill orchestrates required instructions; GetSuperpower installs and validates the dependency skills.
