Full Release Notes
### Lower Per-Session Token Cost The `using-superpowers` bootstrap is injected into every session, so its size is paid for constantly. This release trims it and the per-harness references it points to, without dropping behavior-shaping content. - **Compressed the `using-superpowers` bootstrap.** Replaced the graphviz skill-flow diagram with the prose it encoded, folded the standalone Instruction-Priority section into User Instructions, dropped the per-platform "How to Access Skills" walkthrough, and trimmed the Platform Adaptation pointer to the harnesses that still ship a reference file. The full Red Flags rationalization table and the user-instruction precedence rules are unchanged. - **Pruned the per-harness tool-mapping references.** The verbose action-to-tool tables restated guidance modern agents already follow. Each reference file is trimmed to the harness-specific notes that still carry weight — subagent dispatch, task tracking, instructions-file paths — and `claude-code-tools.md` and `copilot-tools.md`, which had nothing harness-specific left, are deleted. ### Codex - **Codex can install from the marketplace.** Codex marketplace sources expect a `.agents/plugins/marketplace.json` at the marketplace root; the repo only shipped the Claude marketplace file, so Codex could name the marketplace but found no installable plugin entries. A repo-local Codex marketplace manifest now points at the same repository root, so the plugin is installable from Codex. - **Codex no longer ships a SessionStart hook.** Codex reliably triggers skills on its own, and the bootstrap hook made the UX worse rather than better. The Codex hook config (`hooks-codex.json`) and its manifest registration are removed. ### Harness Support - **Gemini CLI support removed.** Google EOLed the Gemini CLI on 2026-06-18; the extension can no longer be installed or updated. Gemini is gone from the install docs, the subagent-capable platform lists, and the eval-harness description, and its tool-mapping reference is deleted.
