superstack

The open-source platform behind solana.new — 25 journey skills that take you from "what should I build?" to a shipped, funded product on Solana. Backed by 106 repos, 78 ecosystem skills, 36 MCP servers, 515+ curated ideas, and a comprehensive Solana knowledge base.

Works with Claude Code and Codex.

Install

curl -fsSL https://www.solana.new/setup.sh | bash

Installs skills (Markdown prompts) to ~/.claude/skills/ and ~/.codex/skills/, plus the Solana knowledge base, guides, and catalog data. Nothing touches your PATH or runs in the background.

Requirements: Git and Node.js 20+.

Quick Start

claude "/find-next-crypto-idea What should I build on Solana?"
claude "/scaffold-project Set up my workspace"
claude "/build-with-claude Help me build the MVP"
claude "/deploy-to-mainnet Ship it"

Every skill interviews you first — never assumes.

Journey Skills

25 skills across 4 phases. You ask naturally, the right skill activates.

How Phases Connect

Each phase writes context to .superstack/ in your project. The next phase reads it automatically.

find-next-crypto-idea  ──writes──>  .superstack/idea-context.md
scaffold-project       ──reads───>  .superstack/idea-context.md
build-with-claude      ──writes──>  .superstack/build-context.md
deploy-to-mainnet      ──reads───>  .superstack/build-context.md

Context files are optional, not gates. Skip to any phase — the skill asks you directly if context is missing.

Ecosystem Catalog

Ships with a curated catalog of the Solana ecosystem that skills search and recommend from.

Catalog	Count	Examples
Repos	106	Anchor, Pinocchio, Quasar, Doppler, Metaplex, Orca, Raydium, Jupiter, Jito, LiteSVM, Mollusk, Codama, Blueshift, ConnectorKit, Solana Agent Kit, MagicBlock
Skills	78	15 official (Solana Foundation) + 63 community (Jupiter, Helius, Kamino, Privy, DFlow, Phoenix, Meteora, Sanctum, QEDGen, Carbium)
MCPs	36	Helius, Jupiter, Phantom, Orca, Alchemy, Flash Trade, Solscan, DexScreener, Solana Foundation
Knowledge	7 docs	Architecture, programs, protocols, SDKs, app layer, open-source research, Cookbook index
Guides	3	RPC + wallet setup, deploy runbook, security checklist
Ideas	515+	Curated from YC, a16z, Alliance, SendAI, and Superteam

Catalog data lives in cli/data/. Skills reference it automatically — you don't need to look anything up.

Telemetry

Anonymous, opt-in, privacy-first. Tracks which skills get used and how long they take — no code, no file paths, no PII. Default is off.

# Check or change in ~/.superstack/config.json
# Options: "off" (default) | "anonymous" | "community"
