Question 1

Can I use this alongside other Claude Code plugins?

Accepted Answer

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

Question 2

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. However, the conductor/ directory it creates consists of plain Markdown files, which any AI tool can read, so you can switch tools later and retain the specs, plans, and documentation.

Question 3

Is this overkill for small tasks?

Accepted Answer

For a quick one‑file fix, it’s better to use Claude Code directly. SupaConductor is useful when the work touches three or more files, you would normally plan before coding, you want automated quality checks, or you need the work done right the first time. You can also use individual commands without running the full loop.

Question 4

How much of my context window does this use?

Accepted Answer

Skills use progressive disclosure, loading only about 100 tokens of metadata each. Full instructions load only when activated (typically under 5,000 tokens each). Agents run in separate conversations with their own context windows, so they don’t fill up your main conversation. For example, the Orchestrator uses ~4,000 tokens during /go, the Planner ~3,000 tokens during planning, each Evaluator ~2,500 tokens when active, a Board meeting ~5,000 tokens on demand, and idle state ~500 tokens.

Question 5

How much does this cost in API credits?

Accepted Answer

SupaConductor uses the same Claude API as normal Claude Code but runs multiple agents, so it consumes roughly 3‑5× the API calls compared to a single manual conversation. It optimizes costs automatically by using Opus for planning/evaluation and Sonnet for execution. You can reduce cost by writing specs yourself, skipping board meetings for small features, or using human‑in‑the‑loop mode.

Question 6

Do I need to know how to code?

Accepted Answer

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

Question 7

What gets created in your project?

Accepted Answer

When you run /orchestrator-supaconductor:setup, it creates a conductor/ folder containing plain Markdown and JSON files that you can read, edit, or delete at any time.
