How to install superpowers-zh for Qoder (--tool qoder)?
superpowers-zh is a collection of skills normally used with Claude Code, but I use Qoder, Alibaba's AI IDE, which reads project configuration from a .qoder/ directory. Qoder was not supported by superpowers-zh, so how do I install the skills for Qoder, and what files does the adapter generate? There is no error message involved; this was a missing-feature request.

Qoder support is implemented and merged into main (commit 725977b), and the issue is closed; the next npm release will carry it. Until then, the maintainer posted these source-install steps:
bashcd /your/project git clone https://github.com/jnMetaCode/superpowers-zh.git /tmp/sp-zh node /tmp/sp-zh/bin/superpowers-zh.js --tool qoderAfter the release, the same command becomes
npx superpowers-zh --tool qoder, and in a project that already has a.qoder/directory, plainnpx superpowers-zhwill auto-detect Qoder.The adapter does two things, per the maintainer:
- Copies 20 skills to
.qoder/skills/<name>/SKILL.md. - Generates an always-on bootstrap rule
.qoder/rules/superpowers-zh.mdwithtrigger: always_on, so the core "brainstorm first / TDD first / verify first" rules load every session instead of relying on implicit description matching.
A tool-mapping table in
docs/README.qoder.mdtells the model which Qoder tool corresponds to each Claude Code tool (for example, Qoder'sEnterSpecModecorresponds to Claude Code'sEnterPlanMode).Caveat from the maintainer: the Qoder Rules frontmatter schema (
trigger: always_on/model_decision/manual) is not in Qoder's official docs; it was cross-checked against four community samples. If Qoder changes the schema, the generated rule file may need its type re-selected in Qoder Settings → Rules.The maintainer also declined to rewrite skills per tool: skills stay methodology-level behavior constraints, and the tool mapping is handled by the bootstrap rule and docs, because per-tool rewrites without eval evidence are rejected upstream.

A commenter compared Claude Code, Qoder, and Quest native tools and suggested splitting or rewriting skills per AI coding tool to avoid duplicates. The maintainer absorbed the tool-mapping parts into docs/README.qoder.md but declined per-tool skill rewrites without eval evidence.
