Question 1

How much of my context window does this use?

Accepted Answer

Skills use progressive disclosure — only ~100 tokens each for metadata. Full instructions load only when activated (typically under 5,000 tokens each). The 39 skills are not loaded all at once. Agents run as separate conversations with their own context windows, so they don't fill up your main conversation. | Component | Context Used | When | |-----------|-------------|------| | Orchestrator | ~4,000 tokens | Active during /go | | Planner | ~3,000 tokens | During planning only | | Evaluator | ~2,500 tokens each | Only the active evaluator loads | | Board meeting | ~5,000 tokens | On-demand only | | Idle | ~500 tokens | Between steps |

Question 2

What gets created in your project

Accepted Answer

When you run /orchestrator-supaconductor:setup, it creates a conductor/ folder: All of these are plain Markdown and JSON files. You can read, edit, or delete them anytime.

Question 3

Can I use this alongside other Claude Code plugins?

Accepted Answer

Yes. SupaConductor uses the /orchestrator-supaconductor: namespace and doesn't conflict with any other plugins, built-in commands, or MCP servers.

Question 4

Is this overkill for small tasks?

Accepted Answer

For a quick one-file fix — yes, just use Claude Code directly. Use SupaConductor when: The work touches 3 or more files You'd normally plan before coding You want automated quality checks You want the work done right the first time You can also use individual commands without the full loop:

Question 5

Does this work with Cursor, Windsurf, or other AI tools?

Accepted Answer

No — SupaConductor is a Claude Code plugin that requires Claude Code's plugin system (agents, skills, slash commands, hooks). However, the conductor/ directory it creates is just Markdown files. Any AI tool can read them. If you start with SupaConductor and switch tools later, your specs, plans, and documentation remain useful.

Question 6

How much does this cost in API credits?

Accepted Answer

SupaConductor uses the same Claude API as normal Claude Code — it just structures the work more carefully. Because it runs multiple agents (planning, execution, evaluation), it uses roughly 3-5x the API calls compared to doing everything manually in one conversation. SupaConductor optimizes costs automatically: it uses Opus (the most capable model) for planning and evaluation, and Sonnet (faster, cheaper) for execution tasks. Ways to reduce cost: Use /orchestrator-supaconductor:implement if you write specs yourself Skip board meetings for small features (they're opt-in) Use human-in-the-loop mode to stay in control of scope

Question 7

Do I need to know how to code?

Accepted Answer

You need Claude Code installed and running — that requires basic terminal knowledge. But once SupaConductor is set up, you describe what you want in plain English and it handles the implementation.
