Codex CLI + Superpowers = 2.5 Hours of FREE AI Coding
Codex CLI + the Superpowers plugin just ran for 2.5 hours straight and built an entire feature from scratch. This is the most impressive agentic coding session I've ever seen — and it's completely FREE.
I gave it a simple prompt to build a new "Foundations" feature for Harbor SEO, and instead of just coding immediately, it asked me detailed product management questions, spec'd out the entire system, then coded for 2.5 hours autonomously across 8 tasks. The result? A 90% complete feature that rivals what Claude Code can build.
In this video I show you:
→ How to set up Codex CLI with the Superpowers plugin
→ Why the brainstorming/questioning phase makes the code 10x better
→ The full 2.5 hour build result (live walkthrough)
→ How this compares to Claude Code (honest take)
→ Why this might be the best FREE coding tool available ri
