Bigpowers

danielvm · Agent

Bigpowers is a set of agent skills that turns a prescriptive software engineering method into steps an AI coding agent follows, aimed at solo developers. Work moves through a six-phase lifecycle with gates between phases, from surveying context and writing a spec to test-driven development, while a state file keeps you and the agent aligned across sessions. It draws on ideas from Clean Code and A Philosophy of Software Design.

Written by ooruby from the README of bigpowers 2.88.9.

Not claimed by its maker. Is this yours? Prove it and answer the findings

Why it's useful

A solo developer gets one prescribed process with gates, and the agent keeps track of where the work stands from one session to the next.

What you could do with it

  1. 1Run the bootstrap skill to learn the lifecycle and find out which skill to call first for your project.
  2. 2Resume after an interruption by running the survey context skill, which picks up where you left off.
  3. 3Connect the MCP server so your agent can search the skill catalogue and load a skill when it needs one.

Written from its documentation: what it says it can do, not what our checks found.

Maintenance

Not measured

No release date is on record for this package yet. The nightly publisher check records one as it reaches each npm package, about once every ten nights.

Release activity only: it says nothing about quality or safety, and a finished small package can be fine without releases. How it is measured

Not yet tested
Command execution is bounded

An inventory of where the code starts another program, not a verdict on this row: whether each one runs a fixed program or whatever it is handed takes a reading by hand.

Published because it was found. A finding is information about where the limits are, not a verdict that the software is unsafe.

How far this has been checked

Static scanned

What it establishes
Its published package, or for a hosted server its source repository at a recorded commit, was read file by file, without running it, by every check in our current scan.
What it does not
How it behaves when it runs, or anything the scan does not read yet: several rubric checks, the repository's history, and compiled code in folders named dist or build. For a hosted server, that the endpoint runs the code that was read. The ooruby Index sets out exactly what was read.
Exactly what was read
Version 2.88.9, the file with digest sha512-koDlDGFMrogdoTkDIFdeehR12x/osSln7fc7znOPrvXgwvJ9VlSlzXadZuc7UsafzcfcyHs4SHyFpCD2xvXkbw==, as the registry publishes it. A published version cannot be replaced, so this names the same bytes for anyone who checks.
Authentication
Runs locally. No hosted endpoint is listed for this package. You run it on your own machine, so there is no endpoint of ours to authenticate against.
How the rungs work

Adding it

Run it with:

npx -y -p bigpowers@2.88.9 bigpowers

Pinned to 2.88.9, which is the version the findings above were found in. Drop the version to take whatever is newest, and the report on this page stops describing what you installed.

No build provenance published. The repository above is the one the publisher declared, and nothing links it to the package you would install. That is not a mark against this listing, since most packages are published this way, but it is a check nobody can run.

The badge, if this is your listing

It renders the current rung (static scanned) and links back here, where what that does and does not establish is one click away. It updates itself as the evidence deepens.
