Radicle Skill

A Claude Code plugin marketplace for working with Radicle — a peer-to-peer code collaboration protocol.

Looking for pi? See rad-pi for the pi package.

Plugins

Three composable plugins — install what you need:

Plugin	Description	Always-loaded
radicle	Radicle CLI support — patches, issues, node operations, sync	~4 KB
radicle-extras	Plan and Context COBs — task workflows, import/sync, session observations	~5 KB
radicle-autonomy	Multi-agent orchestration — dispatch tasks to parallel worktree workers	~2 KB

radicle (core)

Core Radicle knowledge and CLI routing. Covers rad init, rad clone, patches, issues, node management, sync, and remotes. Includes a session-start hook that detects Radicle repos.

radicle-extras

Plan COBs (me.hdh.plan) and Context COBs (me.hdh.context) with full task integration. Import Radicle issues as Claude Code tasks, sync completions back, and capture session observations for future agents.

Commands: /rad-import, /rad-sync, /rad-status, /rad-context

Requires: rad-plan and/or rad-context CLIs (features gracefully degrade without them)

radicle-autonomy

Multi-agent worktree dispatch. The plan-manager identifies ready tasks and the worker agent executes them in isolated git worktrees — one commit, one Context COB per task.

Commands: /rad-dispatch, /rad-issue Agents: plan-manager, worker

Requirements

• Radicle installed and configured (rad auth)
• Radicle node running for network operations (rad node start)
• Optional: rad-plan CLI for Plan COB support
• Optional: rad-context CLI for Context COB support

Installation

Add the marketplace to your settings file (~/.claude/settings.json for global, .claude/settings.json for project):

{
  "extraKnownMarketplaces": {
    "rad-skill": {
      "source": {
        "source": "git",
        "url": "https://seed.radicle.garden/zvBj4kByGeQSrSy2c4H7fyK42cS8.git"
      }
    }
  }
}

Then enable the plugins you need:

{
  "enabledPlugins": {
    "radicle@rad-skill": true
  }
}

Core only — basic Radicle CLI support:

"enabledPlugins": { "radicle@rad-skill": true }

Core + extras — task workflows and session observations:

"enabledPlugins": { "radicle@rad-skill": true, "radicle-extras@rad-skill": true }

Full stack — add multi-agent orchestration:

"enabledPlugins": { "radicle@rad-skill": true, "radicle-extras@rad-skill": true, "radicle-autonomy@rad-skill": true }

Multi-Agent Worktree Dispatch

Multiple agents work in parallel git worktrees, using COBs as the shared coordination layer. COBs live in ~/.radicle/storage/ and are visible from all worktrees instantly — code is isolated per worktree, metadata flows freely.

1. Import and plan: /rad-import <issue-id> creates tasks, optionally saves as a Plan COB
2. Dispatch: /rad-dispatch <plan-id> identifies ready tasks and provides worker launch instructions
3. Workers: Launch claude --worktree sessions per task — each worker claims a task, implements, produces a commit + Context COB
4. Iterate: Re-run /rad-dispatch to see context feedback and the next batch of ready tasks
5. Complete: When all tasks pass, /rad-sync closes the plan and issue

Task-Issue Mapping

Issues are feature-level ("Implement auth"), tasks are work items ("Create middleware", "Write tests"). One issue becomes multiple tasks, each sized for a single session.

Sync uses conservative completion — an issue closes only when 100% of linked tasks are done.

Installing COB CLIs
