Shanashma, a whetstone engraved with the project name

Shanashma is a Claude Code plugin marketplace. Its name means whetstone: the goal is not to replace the tools a team already uses, but to sharpen them with focused workflows.

Its first plugin, ado-flow, brings everyday Azure DevOps work into the terminal while remembering how a team organizes projects, work items, repositories, areas, and iterations.

Why I built it

My work items and repositories often live in different Azure DevOps projects. General-purpose integrations repeatedly needed that context and could choose the wrong project. I wanted a workflow that could be configured once, reused across sessions, and shared with teammates.

What ado-flow provides

  • A natural-language entry point through /adoflow
  • Work item creation, querying, and updates
  • Pull request creation, review, voting, and management
  • Pipeline and build execution and monitoring
  • Persistent organization and project configuration
  • Detection of frequently changing area and iteration paths from recent work

Install

Add the marketplace and then install the plugin from inside Claude Code:

/plugin marketplace add https://github.com/niketansrane/shanashma
/plugin install ado-flow@shanashma
