Six months of daily Claude Code use convinced me the agent doesn’t lack capability. It lacks process. It can write a React component or trace a segfault, but it won’t ask “did I verify this actually works?” before declaring victory, and it won’t split a 400-line diff into reviewable chunks. whetstone is a plugin that fixes that. 30 skills, 19 agents, 22 commands. Skills are compact instruction sets that load on keyword match, so the agent picks up the relevant discipline for the task it’s actually running. The debugging skill blocks a fix until the root cause is identified with file-and-line evidence two levels deep in the call chain. Reproduce first, one hypothesis at a time, escalate after three failed attempts instead of guessing forever. The code-review skill runs spec-compliance first, then quality, and dispatches parallel specialist agents (security, performance, database) when a diff crosses the size threshold. The writing skill keeps a banned-vocab list and a five-dimension rubric every piece of prose passes through. The workflow is five commands. /ia-brainstorm interviews you to surface hidden requirements. /ia-plan turns that into atomic tasks with file paths. /ia-work executes with task tracking and verification gates. /ia-review runs the multi-agent review. /ia-compound captures what you solved as searchable docs the next session can find. Each works standalone. https://github.com/iliaal/whetstone submitted by /u/Ilia0001
