Active·★ 35·MIT·Updated 2026-10-21

Whetstone is a Claude Code plugin that enforces disciplined development workflow: plan before coding, verify before claiming done, find root cause before patching, review before merge. It bundles agents, skills, commands, and a skill distillery for PHP, Python, TypeScript, React, and infrastructure workflows.
