Is the Hyper-Waterfall skill free?

Yes. The skill itself is free from postmelee/hyper-waterfall. SkillProof publishes the install command and an independent test verdict at no cost.

What is the Hyper-Waterfall SkillProof Score?

8.0/10 — installs cleanly 3/5, triggers reliably 5/5, output vs. baseline 8/10, docs & honesty 4/5.

How do I install Hyper-Waterfall?

Copy the install command from this page, run it in your terminal, and restart Claude Code. Skills live in ~/.claude/skills/ (global) or .claude/skills/ inside a project.

Can I use Hyper-Waterfall with Cursor, Copilot, Gemini CLI, Codex or other AI tools?

The SKILL.md format is native to Claude (Claude Code, Desktop, claude.ai). The instructions inside adapt to other assistants: Cursor rules, GitHub Copilot instructions, Windsurf rules, Custom GPTs, AGENTS.md for OpenAI Codex, and GEMINI.md for Google Gemini CLI — our conversion guides cover each, and the free converter on the tools page does the wrapping for you.

Test report

Verdict: Works with setup
Score: 8.0/10
Tested: Jul 14, 2026
Environment: Claude Code 2.x (agent harness)
Upstream re-checked: Aug 10, 2026 · e74b890

Ran the real `npx hyper-waterfall@0.2.0 doctor` and `init` commands against a fresh throwaway git repo -- both produced accurate, genuinely non-destructive dry-run reports (verified zero files were written) matching the skill's mandated report format almost field-for-field, but the installed skill folder itself is just SKILL.md: it omits docs/agent-entrypoint.md and templates/manifest.json, the two files its own body tells Claude to read first.

What Hyper-Waterfall does

A routing skill for the Hyper-Waterfall task-lifecycle framework: it tells Claude which canonical files to read in a target repo (AGENTS.md, CLAUDE.md, docs/agent-entrypoint.md, templates/manifest.json) and which npm CLI commands (`npx hyper-waterfall doctor|init|update`) to fall back on for safe, approval-gated dry-runs. Triggers on requests to apply, run, or update the Hyper-Waterfall workflow in a repo; the standalone skill folder does not bundle the docs/manifest files it tells Claude to consult first, so the npx CLI fallback is the practical path.

How to install Hyper-Waterfall

git clone https://github.com/postmelee/hyper-waterfall
cd hyper-waterfall
mkdir -p ~/.claude/skills
cp -r plugins/claude/hyper-waterfall/skills/hyper-waterfall ~/.claude/skills/hyper-waterfall

Skills live in ~/.claude/skills/ (global) or .claude/skills/ (per-project). Restart Claude Code after installing.
