# Ultrapowers

Ultrapowers takes a goal or a task list and builds it for you, unattended: it plans, builds each task
test-first, has a stronger model review every task, loops a critic until the goal is met, and hands
back one reviewed branch. You step in at two points only, approving the plan and reviewing the result.

The build discipline is [Superpowers](https://github.com/obra/superpowers)' work by Jesse Vincent
([@obra](https://github.com/obra)), embedded with gratitude. Ultrapowers' part is the host: it runs
that discipline on a deterministic JavaScript coordinator, so a long, many-task build runs hands-off
without filling up your chat session. The name comes from a Superpowers proposal obra declined; see
[Why it exists](#why-it-exists).

## What you get

![Superpowers v6 vs Ultrapowers: a roughly 2x cost gap measured by 12 tasks, projected toward a 1M coordinator window](docs/benchmarks/cost-projection-2026-06-17.svg)

Two findings, from a model-fair head-to-head against superpowers v6 (same sonnet implementer and
opus reviewers on both sides; the only structural difference is where the orchestration loop runs):

- **A cost gap that grows with the build.** One task is a tie ($0.76 vs $0.88). By 12 and 24 tasks
