 # Superpowers Release Notes
 
+## v6.0.3 (2026-06-18)
+
+### Subagent-Driven Development
+
+- **SDD scratch files moved out of `.git/`.** Claude Code treats `.git/` as a protected path and denies agent writes there, so an implementer subagent writing its report into `.git/sdd/` got blocked mid-run. Task briefs, implementer reports, review diffs, and the progress ledger now live in a self-ignoring `.superpowers/sdd/` directory in the working tree — kept out of `git status` and out of commits, and resolved per worktree by a shared `sdd-workspace` helper. One caveat: because the workspace is git-ignored working-tree scratch, `git clean -fdx` will delete the progress ledger; recover from `git log` if that happens. (#1780)
