Receiving code review
How to act on review feedback without either capitulating to all of it or arguing with all of it.
Installation
$ npx skills add obra/superpowersThe CLI's unit is the repository, so this installs everything in obra/superpowers, not receiving-code-review alone. It writes into whichever agent directories it finds — Claude Code, Codex, Cursor, Copilot, Windsurf, Zed.
Summary
How to act on review feedback without either capitulating to all of it or arguing with all of it.
- Reach for it when the agent's instinct on a review comment is to apply it immediately, including when it is wrong.
- Sits in Review — reading a diff critically, and the far harder skill of acting on what a reviewer said.
- Stack-agnostic — nothing in it assumes a particular language or framework.
- Published by Jesse Vincent. Well regarded, but not the vendor of the thing it covers.
- Installing pulls the whole obra/superpowers repository: this catalogue lists 13 other entries from it, and the repo may hold more.

The skill itself
The full text lives with its publisher and changes when they change it. Read it there rather than here — a mirrored copy of somebody else's procedure goes stale silently, and this page would have no way of telling you.
