cairn

Cairn — marks the trail and remembers the path. Batteries-included: installing it pulls in GSD (a plugin dependency) and bootstraps the beads issue tracker (bd), then a single /cairn:init wires a project end to end. Wires the GSD planning workflow (/gsd:*) to beads (bd) so phases create/claim/close tracked work, optionally mirrors bd issues two-way (hub-and-spoke) to GitHub Issues, GitLab, Jira, Asana, and Azure Boards, and optionally makes the context-mode knowledge base intent-aware (scopes compressed memory to the active issue + phase). The integration conventions activate only in repos that use both GSD and beads.

Plugin cairn from marketplace eventually-consistent-code in eventually-consistent-code-org/claude-plugins. Commands read from the repo's manifest — 3 days ago.

This plugin runs code on your machine — its hooks fire automatically on events like tool use. The exact commands are listed below; read them before installing.

What it installs

Skills (3)

  • cairn-context

    Use when a repo has .cairn/context.json AND the context-mode ctx_* MCP tools are available — makes context-mode's knowledge base GSD/beads-aware. Scopes indexed memory by the active bd issue + GSD phase (source-label convention), recalls only the active task's context, and watches ctx_stats to advis

  • cairn-sync

    Use when a repo has .cairn/sync.json with an enabled backend — mirrors bd (beads) issues two-way (hub-and-spoke) to GitHub Issues, GitLab, Jira, Asana, and/or Azure Boards. bd is the hub/source of truth. PUSH fires on bd lifecycle events; PULL reconciles external edits back to bd on demand. Compleme

  • cairn

    Use when working in a repo that has BOTH GSD (.planning/) and beads (.beads/) — wires phase planning and execution to the bd issue tracker so /gsd:* commands create, claim, and close tracked work. Defines the per-phase map, plan frontmatter, label convention, lifecycle hooks, and precedence rules.

Slash commands (18)

  • /cairn:bd

    Run any beads (bd) command directly — raw passthrough

  • /cairn:context-config

    Enable/configure the context-mode integration (intent-aware memory) — writes .cairn/context.json

  • /cairn:ctx

    Run a context-mode operation directly — raw passthrough to the ctx_* tools

  • /cairn:gsd

    Run any GSD command directly — raw passthrough

  • /cairn:help

    Show the cairn unified command interface (one namespace for GSD + beads)

  • /cairn:init

    One-command, soup-to-nuts project setup — ensure GSD + beads, wire git + bd init, then hand off to the interactive GSD project setup

  • /cairn:issues

    List beads issues, optionally scoped to a phase

  • /cairn:new

    Start a new cairn project — GSD new-project, then create the bd issues and phase↔beads maps

  • /cairn:plan

    Plan a phase — GSD plan-phase plus beads map reconciliation

  • /cairn:progress

    Roadmap-level project progress (GSD)

  • /cairn:recall

    Recall context-mode memory scoped to the active bd issue + phase (intent-aware search)

  • /cairn:remember

    Index current work into context-mode under the active bd issue + phase label

  • /cairn:ship

    Ship — verify every completed phase's beads are closed, then GSD ship / push

  • /cairn:status

    One combined view — beads ready/blocked work plus GSD project progress

  • /cairn:sync-config

    Configure two-way bd↔external sync (GitHub/GitLab/Jira/Asana/Azure Boards) — writes .cairn/sync.json

  • /cairn:sync-pull

    Reconcile external work-management tools back into bd (pull-on-demand, last-writer-wins)

  • /cairn:verify

    Verify a phase's work — GSD verify-work cross-checked against beads

  • /cairn:work

    Execute a phase — claim its beads, run GSD execute-phase, close on success

Hooks (1)

  • SessionStart

claude

Get Shit Done — a structured planning/execution/verification workflow for Claude Code (/gsd:*), MCP-backed project state. Re-published here as a dependency of cairn so it installs automatically; upstream is jnuyens/gsd-plugin (tracking open-gsd/get-shit-done-redux). Installable on its own too.
