# Notices and third-party licenses

`superpowers-preset-dsh` is an independent, community-maintained port. It is not
affiliated with, endorsed by, or published by the Superpowers project or by
DeepSeek.

## Superpowers (upstream)

- Project: **Superpowers** — https://github.com/obra/superpowers
- Copyright: © 2025 Jesse Vincent and Superpowers contributors
- License: MIT
- Pinned version: **`v6.4.2`** (recorded in `package.json` under
  `dsh.superpowersUpstream`)

### What was taken from upstream

Only the **skill library** is derived from upstream:

| This repository | Upstream source | How it was changed |
|---|---|---|
| `skills/<name>/SKILL.md` | `skills/<name>/SKILL.md` | See *Adaptations* below. Structure and prose are upstream's; instructions that name tools, paths, subagents, or harness-specific mechanisms were rewritten for the DeepSeek Harness. |
| `skills/<name>/**` (scripts, prompts, references) | `skills/<name>/**` | Copied, with harness-neutral invocation fixes (see *Adaptations*). |
| `skills/using-superpowers/references/dsh-tools.md` | *(new file)* | Written for this port. Not from upstream. |

Nothing else is derived from upstream. The Cordis plugin
(`lib/index.js`), the agent-preset declaration (`cordis.patch.yml`), the
synchronisation and verification scripts (`scripts/`), and all documentation in
this repository are original work for this port.

### Adaptations applied by `scripts/sync-from-upstream.mjs`

The sync script is the authoritative list; it replays each adaptation as an
asserted string rewrite, so an upstream change that invalidates an adaptation
fails the sync instead of silently regressing. In summary:

1. Skill names lose the `superpowers:` namespace prefix (DSH addresses skills by
   bare name in kebab-case).
2. Harness-conditional instructions are collapsed to the DeepSeek Harness. The
   upstream "read your platform's `references/*-tools.md`" checklist for Claude
   Code, Codex, Gemini, Copilot, Pi, Antigravity, Hermes, and Muse is replaced
   by a single DSH reference; the other harness reference files are not
   distributed.
3. Claude Code tool names (`Task`, `TodoWrite`, `Bash`, `Read`, `Write`,
   `Edit`, `Glob`, `Grep`, `AskUserQuestion`, `WebSearch`, `WebFetch`) are
   replaced by their DeepSeek Harness equivalents (`subagent`, `todo_write`,
   `pwsh`/`bash`, `read`, `write`, `edit`, `glob`, `grep`,
   `ask_user_question`, `web_search`, `web_fetch`).
4. Named subagents (`superpowers:code-reviewer`) are replaced by the skills'
   own dispatch templates (`code-reviewer.md`, `implementer-prompt.md`, …)
   passed to the `subagent` tool, because DSH has no named-agent registry.
5. Claude Code paths are remapped to DSH paths: `~/.claude/skills/` →
   `$DSH_HOME/skills/`, `~/.superpowers/` → `$DSH_HOME/`.
6. Bundled helper scripts are invoked through their interpreter
   (`bash scripts/task-brief …`, `node render-graphs.js`) instead of as bare
   executables, because archive extraction and Windows do not preserve Unix
   executable bits.

## DeepSeek Harness

DeepSeek Harness (DSH) is the host this preset runs in. No DSH source code is
copied or redistributed here; the preset only references plugin package names
that ship with DSH (`@deepseek-ai/dsh-*`) and the documented Cordis composition
format. DSH is a separate project under its own license.
