I would keep pstack for deeper investigation, adversarial review, real runtime proof, and autonomous work that must remain auditable. For small work, I prefer the shorter loop in fstack.
He wrote a long walkthrough. He would use pstack for deep investigation, adversarial review, and real runtime proof, and he keeps small edits on the shorter fstack loop.
The page gives this as the updated date, not the first published date.

This is the kind of documentation I usually warn against. It goes stale quickly and can confuse agents if it's not kept up to date.
He quote-posted poteto’s talk about shipping 2,500 PRs and called the talk worth watching. He usually warns that feature-map docs go stale, then says Lauren’s team uses them as navigation, so that kind of doc can be worth keeping when it enables new behavior.
This is about poteto’s talk, not one release of the plugin.

Using the P-Stack, it took 1 hour, so twice the amount of time. If you're making small design changes or working on the front-end UI, you probably don't need to be using this.
On the same project, pstack took about an hour and a run without it took about 30 minutes. He says the result was more solid, including catching three false claims, and that small UI tweaks do not need the stack.
Translation: This article explains all 2 sub-agents and 45 skills that shipped with pstack.
A Japanese walkthrough of the two agents and 45 skills as they stood then. It explains the plugin. It is not a report of using it on a project.

Under a thread about AI-sounding prose, he points people to poteto’s /unslop and to a Claude port of her skills.

If you just blindly copy my exact setup, it's like paying a bunch of money for a code template. It's cringe and bad and it means you suck at engineering.
He spent a week with Matt Pocock’s skills and with pstack. He calls pstack an underrated gem and says he is closer to it, while telling people not to install either library wholesale.

Every one of them was somewhere between three and two hundred lines of code, mostly bug fixes and refactorings. They were all targeted, well-documented, and easy for me to reason through.
After two days and about twelve PRs, the diffs stayed small and easy to review. What he values most is the poteto-agent wrapper and a principle layer you can extend.
Based on an earlier version. The post describes 15 playbooks and 19 principles.

pstack is a Cursor plugin of ~45 skills built around one idea: an orchestrator mode (`/poteto-mode`) reads your task, picks a playbook, and routes to specialized skills and 21 engineering principles as steps fire.
