This is great in concept but what prevents me from using it is TDD. I don't want to waste tokens on producing code that doesn't ship to the end user. Design by Contract is a far superior approach. If you've never heard of Design by Contract I don't blame you, our culture really failed to bring it mainstream. But I swear by it and it gives me real superpowers. Maybe I should fork this and gut the TDD part and replace it.

What programming language are you using for Design by Contract?

Nothing about Superpowers forces you to use TDD, brainstorm first, etc. It’s not rigid about the workflow.
