name: Replace superpowers with framework-native behavioral rules and skills
description: >
  Strip superpowers/feature-dev plugin references. Add two behavioral rules to CLAUDE.md
  (verification before completion, hypothesis-driven debugging). Create two lightweight
  framework-native skills (/explore, /plan). Update template. Clean up start-work
  skill references.

# T-134: Replace superpowers with framework-native behavioral rules and skills

## Context

T-124 cycle 2 analysis revealed superpowers plugin was competing with framework governance — self-propagating skill chains, 1820-line plans for spike work, and over-planning. Deep evaluation showed feature-dev had the same problem. Decision: strip both, replace with lightweight behavioral rules + 2 framework-native skills.

Evidence: session transcript analysis of sprechloop cycle 2 (agent-a694e15).

## Acceptance Criteria

- [x] superpowers and feature-dev disabled in settings.json
- [x] All superpowers/feature-dev references removed from CLAUDE.md
- [x] All references removed from template (claude-project.md)
- [x] All references removed from start-work skill
- [x] Verification Before Completion behavioral rule added to CLAUDE.md + template
- [x] Hypothesis-Driven Debugging behavioral rule added to CLAUDE.md + template
- [x] /explore skill created (replaces brainstorming)
- [x] /plan skill created (replaces writing-plans)

## Verification

grep -qi 'superpowers\|feature-dev\|brainstorm\|writing-plans\|executing-plans' CLAUDE.md && exit 1 || true
grep -qi 'superpowers\|feature-dev\|brainstorm\|writing-plans\|executing-plans' lib/templates/claude-project.md && exit 1 || true
test -f .claude/commands/explore.md
test -f .claude/commands/plan.md
grep -q 'Verification Before Completion' CLAUDE.md
grep -q 'Hypothesis-Driven Debugging' CLAUDE.md
