Feature Request: Skip Auto-Triggered Skills

Problem

Skills are auto-triggered and cannot be skipped per request.

For trivial tasks (e.g., small config changes), this forces heavy workflows like TDD (via superpowers), which is unnecessary and wastes time.

Current workarounds are not viable:

  • uninstalling useful skills, or
  • modifying trigger conditions

The latter is especially problematic because skills are distributed via public repos, so local modifications are overwritten and not maintainable.

Request

Allow skipping skills without uninstalling them, e.g.:

  • prompt-level opt-out ("skip skills")
  • per-skill mode (auto / manual / off)

Why

Auto-triggering without an opt-out makes otherwise useful skills disruptive in real workflows.
