+# Superpowers for Codex
+
+Guide for using Superpowers with OpenAI Codex via native skill discovery.
+
+## Quick Install
+
+Tell Codex:
+
+```
+Fetch and follow instructions from https://raw.githubusercontent.com/obra/superpowers/refs/heads/main/.codex/INSTALL.md
+```
+
+## Manual Installation
+
+### Prerequisites
+
+- OpenAI Codex CLI
+- Git
+
+### Steps
+
+1. Clone the repo:
+   ```bash
+   git clone https://github.com/obra/superpowers.git ~/.codex/superpowers
+   ```
+
+2. Create the skills symlink:
+   ```bash
+   mkdir -p ~/.agents/skills
+   ln -s ~/.codex/superpowers/skills ~/.agents/skills/superpowers
+   ```
+
+3. Restart Codex.
+
+### Windows
+
+Use a junction instead of a symlink (works without Developer Mode):
+
+```powershell
+New-Item -ItemType Directory -Force -Path "$env:USERPROFILE\.agents\skills"
+cmd /c mklink /J "$env:USERPROFILE\.agents\skills\superpowers" "$env:USERPROFILE\.codex\superpowers\skills"
+```
+
+## How It Works
+
+Codex has native skill discovery — it scans `~/.agents/skills/` at startup, parses SKILL.md frontmatter, and loads skills on demand. Superpowers skills are made visible through a single symlink:
+
+```
+~/.agents/skills/superpowers/ → ~/.codex/superpowers/skills/
+```
+
+The `using-superpowers` skill is discovered automatically and enforces skill usage discipline — no additional configuration needed.
+
+## Usage
+
+Skills are discovered automatically. Codex activates them when:
+- You mention a skill by name (e.g., "use brainstorming")
+- The task matches a skill's description
+- The `using-superpowers` skill directs Codex to use one
+
+### Personal Skills
+
+Create your own skills in `~/.agents/skills/`:
+
+```bash
+mkdir -p ~/.agents/skills/my-skill
+```
+
+Create `~/.agents/skills/my-skill/SKILL.md`:
+
+```markdown
+---
+name: my-skill
+description: Use when [condition] - [what it does]
+---
+
+# My Skill
+
+[Your skill content here]
+```
+
+The `description` field is how Codex decides when to activate a skill automatically — write it as a clear trigger condition.
+
+## Updating
+
+```bash
+cd ~/.codex/superpowers && git pull
+```
+
+Skills update instantly through the symlink.
+
+## Uninstalling
+
+```bash
+rm ~/.agents/skills/superpowers
+```
+
+**Windows (PowerShell):**
+```powershell
+Remove-Item "$env:USERPROFILE\.agents\skills\superpowers"
+```
+
+Optionally delete the clone: `rm -rf ~/.codex/superpowers` (Windows: `Remove-Item -Recurse -Force "$env:USERPROFILE\.codex\superpowers"`).
+
+## Troubleshooting
+
+### Skills not showing up
+
+1. Verify the symlink: `ls -la ~/.agents/skills/superpowers`
+2. Check skills exist: `ls ~/.codex/superpowers/skills`
+3. Restart Codex — skills are discovered at startup
+
+### Windows junction issues
+
+Junctions normally work without special permissions. If creation fails, try running PowerShell as administrator.
