# Using harness-anchor
You have the **harness-anchor** runtime layer, companion to `superpowers` (process methodology): it anchors **state persistence, scope boundaries, verification gates, and C/C++ engineering**.
<!-- os-windows-start -->
**Windows session (Git-Bash):** plugin scripts already handle path and JSON-engine portability — do not hand-"fix" MSYS paths or shell out to PowerShell. C/C++ caveat: TSan/LSan are unavailable on this platform; read the `cpp-sanitizers` skill's Windows platform notes before trusting sanitizer coverage.

1. **User's explicit instructions** (CLAUDE.md, direct requests) — highest
2. **superpowers skills** (process)
3. **harness-anchor skills** (state/scope/verification/cpp)
4. Default system prompt — lowest
