LaFollett Labs — Claude Code Plugins

Claude Code plugin marketplace for LaFollett Labs LLC. Cross-project skills, commands, and developer workflow tools that work in any repository.

Available Plugins

Plugin	Purpose	Details
context-handoff	Session state handoff and resume with prior-session deduplication	Commands
issue-manager	GitHub Issue management with intent-over-implementation templates	Skill

context-handoff

Save and restore session working state across /clear boundaries.

• /handoff-context — Serializes task goal, completed/in-progress/blocked items, decisions, constraints, modified files, and next steps to .context/context-handoff.json
• /resume-context — Loads the handoff, orients the session, verifies against live git state
• Prior-session deduplication — Diffs next_steps against archived handoffs' completed arrays to flag stale items and resolved blockers

issue-manager

Create and manage GitHub Issues using intent-focused templates. All issues define what and why — engineers decide how.

• Epic, Story, Task, and Bug templates with quality gates
• CLI script for bulk creation, import, update, and sync status
• Markdown-first workflow: author locally in docs/epics/, push to GitHub Issues
• INVEST story validation and intent-over-implementation enforcement
