 # Superpowers Release Notes
 
+## v6.1.1 (2026-07-02)
+
+### Codex
+
+- **Codex no longer re-registers the Claude SessionStart hook.** v6.1.0 removed the Codex hook config and its manifest `hooks` pointer, meaning to stop Codex from installing a SessionStart hook — but with no `hooks` field, Codex fell back to auto-discovering `hooks/hooks.json`, the Claude Code SessionStart hook that the marketplace ships from the repo root, and re-registered it along with its install-time trust prompt. The Codex manifest now declares an explicit empty hooks object (`hooks: {}`), which Codex reads as "no hooks" instead of reaching the auto-discovery fallback. An absent field, `[]`, and an empty inline list all collapse back to the fallback, so the value has to be exactly `{}`.
+- **Removed orphaned Codex session-start dead code.** `hooks/session-start-codex` had no caller once the Codex hook config was deleted, so it and its redundant test cases are gone. The worked shell-hook example in `docs/porting-to-a-new-harness.md` moves from Codex — now native skill discovery with no session-start hook — to Cursor, a live shell-hook harness, and the stale `hooks-codex.json` pointer in `docs/windows/polyglot-hooks.md` is corrected. The Codex plugin category is also fixed to "Developer Tools".
+
+### Packaging
+
+- **New `package-codex-plugin.sh` for building the Codex portal package.** A maintainer script produces a deterministic Codex "portal" archive — `.zip` by default, `tar.gz` on request — that normalizes entry timestamps, preserves executable modes, verifies every packaged skill ships its OpenAI metadata, includes the app and composer icons, and refuses to run against a dirty worktree. The packaged manifest keeps the source `hooks: {}` object so a portal-installed plugin avoids the same SessionStart auto-discovery, and the script can rebuild a byte-identical archive from a saved metadata source. Covered by a new test suite.

+# Gemini CLI Tool Mapping
+
+Skills speak in actions ("dispatch a subagent", "create a todo", "read a file"). On Gemini CLI these resolve to the tools below.
+
+| Action skills request | Gemini CLI equivalent |
+|----------------------|----------------------|
+| Read a file | `read_file` |
+| Read multiple files at once | `read_many_files` |
+| Create a new file | `write_file` |
+| Edit a file | `replace` |
+| Run a shell command | `run_shell_command` |
+| Search file contents | `grep_search` |
+| Find files by name | `glob` |
+| List files and subdirectories | `list_directory` |
+| Fetch a URL | `web_fetch` |
+| Search the web | `google_web_search` |
+| Invoke a skill | `activate_skill` |
+| Dispatch a subagent (`Subagent (general-purpose):` template) | `invoke_agent` with `agent_name: "generalist"` (invocable via `@generalist` chat syntax — see [Subagent support](#subagent-support)) |
+| Multiple parallel dispatches | Multiple `invoke_agent` calls in the same response |
+| Task tracking ("create a todo", "mark complete") | `write_todos` (statuses: pending, in_progress, completed, cancelled, blocked) |
+
+## Instructions file
+
+When a skill mentions "your instructions file", on Gemini CLI this is **`GEMINI.md`**. Gemini CLI loads `GEMINI.md` hierarchically: global at `~/.gemini/GEMINI.md`, project-level files in workspace directories and their ancestors, and sub-directory `GEMINI.md` files when a tool accesses files in those directories.
+
+## Personal skills directory
+
+User-level skills live at **`~/.gemini/skills/`**, with **`~/.agents/skills/`** as a cross-runtime alias (shared with Codex and Copilot CLI). When both directories exist at the same scope, `.agents/skills/` takes precedence. Each skill is a subdirectory containing a `SKILL.md` (with `name` and `description` frontmatter).
+
+## Subagent support
+
+Gemini CLI dispatches subagents through the `invoke_agent` tool, which takes `agent_name` and `prompt` parameters. The same dispatch is also surfaced as a chat-syntax shortcut: typing `@generalist <prompt>` is equivalent to calling `invoke_agent` with `agent_name: "generalist"`. Built-in agent names include `generalist`, `cli_help`, `codebase_investigator`, and (with browser tooling enabled) `browser_agent`.
+
+Skills dispatch with `Subagent (general-purpose):` and either reference a prompt-template file (e.g., `superpowers:subagent-driven-development`'s `./implementer-prompt.md`) or supply an inline prompt. On Gemini CLI:
+
+| Skill dispatch form | Gemini CLI equivalent |
+|---------------------|----------------------|
+| References a `*-prompt.md` template (implementer, task-reviewer, code-reviewer, etc.) | Fill the template, then `invoke_agent` with `agent_name: "generalist"` and the filled prompt |
+| References `superpowers:requesting-code-review`'s `./code-reviewer.md` | `invoke_agent` with `agent_name: "generalist"` and the filled review template |
+| Inline prompt (no template referenced) | `invoke_agent` with `agent_name: "generalist"` and your inline prompt |
+
+### Prompt filling
+
+Skills provide prompt templates with placeholders like `{WHAT_WAS_IMPLEMENTED}` or `[FULL TEXT of task]`. Fill all placeholders before passing the complete prompt to `invoke_agent`. The prompt template itself contains the agent's role, review criteria, and expected output format — the subagent will follow it.
+
+### Parallel dispatch
+
+Gemini CLI supports parallel subagent dispatch. Issue multiple `invoke_agent` calls in the same response (or multiple `@generalist` invocations in one prompt) to run independent subagent work in parallel. Keep dependent tasks sequential, but do not serialize independent subagent tasks just to preserve a simpler history.
+
+## Additional Gemini CLI tools
+
+These tools are unique to Gemini CLI:
+
+| Tool | Purpose |
+|------|---------|
+| `save_memory` (legacy) | Persist facts across sessions when `experimental.memoryV2 = false` |
+| `get_internal_docs` | Look up Gemini CLI's bundled documentation |
+| `ask_user` | Pose structured questions to the user (text / single-select / multi-select) |
+| `enter_plan_mode` / `exit_plan_mode` | Switch into and out of read-only plan mode |
+| `update_topic` | Update the current conversation's topic / strategic-intent metadata |
+| `complete_task` | Signal that a Gemini subagent has completed and return its result to the parent agent |
+| `tracker_create_task`, `tracker_update_task`, `tracker_get_task`, `tracker_list_tasks`, `tracker_add_dependency`, `tracker_visualize` | Rich task tracker with dependency and visualization support |
+| `read_mcp_resource`, `list_mcp_resources` | MCP resource access |
