Getting Started

Install Super Powers and run your first automation in five minutes.

Installation

Download the latest version of Super Powers from the download page and drag it to your Applications folder.

Super Powers requires macOS 13 (Ventura) or later. No additional runtimes needed — Node.js is bundled.

Creating your first script

  1. Open Super Powers from your Applications folder or Spotlight (⌘ Space → "Super Powers").
  2. Click New Script in the sidebar.
  3. Write your script — JavaScript and TypeScript are supported out of the box.
  4. Press ⌘ Enter (or click Run) to execute.
// Fetch the current Bitcoin price
const res = await fetch('https://api.coinbase.com/v2/prices/BTC-USD/spot');
const { data } = await res.json();

console.log(`BTC: $${data.amount}`);

Scheduling a script

  1. Open the script you want to automate.
  2. Click the Schedule tab in the script editor.
  3. Enter a cron expression or choose a preset interval (e.g. “Every day at 9am”).
  4. Toggle the schedule on.

Your script will run automatically at the defined interval, even when Super Powers is in the background.
