Did anyone install obra/superpowers in Windsurf? It is not officially supported so curious how you guys made it work.

I have a set of global rules configured in Windsurf using the trigger: always_on setting. Despite this being a global instruction, the agent frequently ignores or completely breaks the rules during code generation and content updates - especially as the session context grows.

If you have managed to make your rules strictly "stick" without the AI drifting, how are you structuring them?

I am specifically looking for:

• Formatting & Syntax: Do you use specific phrasing, markdown hierarchies, or XML tags (e.g., <rules></rules>) that the model respects better?
• Config Architecture: Is it better to have one massive master rule file, or split them into smaller, granular files?
• Enforcement Prompts: Any meta-instructions or strict guardrails you include at the top of the configuration to penalize or prevent the agent from deviating?

If anyone has an example configuration template or workflow trick that ensures 100% compliance, please share it. Thanks!

I've been testing out the new SWE-1.6 model recently. While the raw inference speed is impressive and it can handle basic script generation or codebase exploration quite well, it has been absolutely struggling with localization files in my project.

Specifically, it keeps breaking our .po (Portable Object) and .mo (Machine Object) translation files, requiring constant manual interventions and git reverts.

Have you guys encountered this?

We’ve all been there. You’re working with Cascade, it writes a brilliant piece of code, and then three prompts later, it completely forgets its own logic and reintroduces the exact bug you just spent ten minutes fixing. Or worse, it keeps trying to use a deprecated library or an incorrect import path that doesn't exist in your project.

Agentic coding is amazing, but AI amnesia is real.

The good news? You can fix this. Windsurf supports a global and project-specific configuration file called .windsurf/rules. Think of it as a permanent memory bank and a "Do Not Enter" sign for the AI.

This has been very helpful to me. So do use it.

Will Windsurf add MiniMax 2.7 in the future?

Have you guys experienced SWE 1.6 not following instructions in plan mode and decides to implement immediately?

How do you guys manage minified CSS? Across all models, all of them seem to struggle and sometimes decide to just add inline CSS. Here's the windsurf chat snippet:

The CSS files are minified/bundled

• templates-core-bundle.css and templates.css appear to be build artifacts (minified, concatenated)
• Editing minified CSS directly is error-prone and gets overwritten by any build process

I am trying to look for information about Qwen3.6 Plus availability in Windsurf but there is no information out there. Can someone help?

Will these 2 models be available in Windsurf?
