The emergence of superconductivity from doping strongly correlated chiral topological phases in purely repulsive two-dimensional fermionic systems is a problem of broad and fundamental interest. However, existing numerical evidence has been limited to finite-size studies, and direct thermodynamic-limit evidence for superconducting long-range order has remained lacking. Here we provide such evidence for chiral superconductivity in the triangular Hofstadter-Hubbard model by advancing a simplex tensor-network approach that simultaneously captures superconducting long-range order and chiral topological order in the presence of intrinsic charge fluctuations, a capability that has remained challenging for previous two-dimensional approaches. We show that a broad intermediate-U chiral spin liquid is separated from the weak-U Chern insulator by a Mott transition, together forming undoped parent chiral topological states. Upon hole doping, we identify a uniform chiral superconducting state in the infinite system, characterized by a finite complex pairing order parameter. The pairing field exhibits an almost universal phase winding over a broad interaction-doping regime, with a distinct pocket of opposite winding near the Mott criticality. In addition, the entanglement spectrum retains the chiral structure of the parent topological phases while developing additional low-energy branches upon doping. These results establish that chiral superconductivity emerges robustly from doped chiral topological phases.
