The optional model step picks a cloud provider from whichever API key is set, and community naming can fall back to the `claude` CLI, so `GRAPHIFY_BACKEND=none` is needed to keep everything on the machine.\n\n**Superpowers.** Fifteen MIT-licensed skills that make a coding agent design, plan, test first and review before it finishes, with five releases in 90 days and dated release notes. It has no CI workflow or security policy, its bootstrap insists a skill be invoked before any reply, and its optional visual companion loads a logo from Prime Radiant's site unless disabled.\n\n## Before you call either\n\n### Graphify\n\n1. Install `graphifyy` with two y's; other `graphify*` packages on PyPI are not the project's\n2. Set `GRAPHIFY_BACKEND=none` or use `--code-only` when no source or doc text may leave the machine\n3. Pass an absolute path to graph.json in the MCP config, and run `graph_stats` first to check the graph loaded\n4. Set `GRAPHIFY_API_KEY` before binding the HTTP server to 0.0.0.0; it only warns when no key is set\n5. Run 0.9.70 or later before indexing an untrusted repository, because earlier versions carry the Fortran file-read advisory\n\n### Superpowers\n\n1. Install it once per coding agent; each harness has its own install command, and the README says a second harness needs a second install.\n2. Expect brainstorming to start before any code on a build request. Say so plainly if your human partner wants a quick change done without a design document.\n3. Name a model on every subagent dispatch, as the skill asks; an unnamed subagent inherits the session's most expensive model.\n4. Set SUPERPOWERS_DISABLE_TELEMETRY=1 before using the visual companion if no request may leave the machine.\n5. Keep `.superpowers/sdd/` out of `git clean -fdx`; it holds the progress ledger a resumed run reads.\n\n## Questions\n\n### Which is better for AI agents, Graphify or Superpowers?\n\nGraphify scores 68.9 (B) on agent readiness against Superpowers's 64.5 (B), and leads in 4 of 7 scored categories. Superpowers leads on reliability.\n\n### Can an agent call Graphify and Superpowers without installing anything?\n\nGraphify runs on your own machine, with no hosted endpoint listed. No hosted endpoint is listed for Superpowers.\n\n### Are Graphify and Superpowers open source?\n\nYes. Graphify is open source (Apache-2.0 since 0.9.25 of 22 July 2026. Contributions made before then remain available under MIT, with the original text kept in LICENSE-MIT and referenced from NOTICE). Superpowers is open source (MIT (Copyright (c) 2025 Jesse Vincent)).\n\n\n## For agents\n\n- This comparison as JSON: https://www.anchorterminal.com/compare/graphify-vs-superpowers.json, and with the fewest tokens: https://www.anchorterminal.com/compare/graphify-vs-superpowers.min.md\n- Over MCP at https://www.anchorterminal.com/mcp (no key): `compare_tools {\"a\": \"graphify\", \"b\": \"superpowers\"}`.
