pstack

A principle-driven skill pack for Droid with opinionated workflows for planning, shipping, and reviewing code, adapted from the pstack Cursor plugin.

Install

droid plugin marketplace add <this-repo>
droid plugin install pstack@pstack-droid --scope user

The first command registers this repository as a local marketplace. The second installs the plugin for your user account. This exact two-step lifecycle was executed during the ship milestone: install succeeded, the cache tree mirrored this repository, a headless session saw the skills and droids, and teardown left zero residue. The E2E validation re-runs the same lifecycle against the final tree.

Note that Droid keys a marketplace by the directory name of the added path. The id above assumes this repository is cloned as pstack-droid. If you add it under a different directory name, append that name to the install id instead, for example pstack@<marketplace> --scope user.

What it provides

The plugin bundles 48 skills, two droids, and a small script toolkit.

• 44 skills ported from pstack: 21 principle-* skills you can steer by name, investigation and design workflows (how, why, architect, arena, swarm, interrogate, and more), and the poteto-mode operating system with its 23 playbooks and vendored script toolkit.
• The four control skills deslop, control-cli, control-ui, and verify-this from Cursor's team-kit are bundled with this plugin, bringing the total to 48 skills.
• Two droids package the specialized subagents used by those workflows: poteto-agent and comment-sicko.
• A ten-chapter illustrated guide under docs explains each workflow in depth.

Get started

Two steps:

1. Run /setup-pstack to map your configured models onto pstack's per-role defaults. Everything stays on the parent model with complexity tiers if you skip it.
2. Use /poteto-mode whenever you're doing anything that requires rigor.

New here? The pstack guide walks you through a first real task, from setup and prompting through verification and overnight runs.

Prerequisites

Everything core works with a plain Droid install. A few features lean on optional tools:

• gh: optional. The babysit playbook and the watch-pr scripts wrap the GitHub CLI at runtime. Tests for those scripts are hermetic fakes, so the bundled test suite passes without it.
• tmux: optional. Used by the control-cli recipes for driving terminal apps.
• bun or node: needed to run the script toolkit under skills/poteto-mode/scripts/.
• Graphite gt: optional. Stack workflows (shipping, autopilot-stack) keep their upstream gt instructions as written.
