Compound Engineering Plugin

A CLI tool that converts Claude Code plugins to other AI agent platform formats, bundled with the Compound Engineering Plugin — tools that make each unit of engineering work easier than the last.

What is Compound Plugin?

Compound Plugin is a Bun/TypeScript CLI that bridges the gap between AI coding assistant platforms. It converts Claude Code plugins into native formats for:
  • OpenCode - Commands, agents, skills, and MCP servers
  • Codex - Prompts and skills
  • Factory Droid - Native tool mappings
  • Pi - Prompts, skills, and MCPorter interoperability
  • Gemini CLI - Skills and namespaced commands
  • GitHub Copilot - Agent markdown files with MCP integration
  • Kiro CLI - JSON configs with prompt files
  • Windsurf - Skills and workflows with MCP config
  • OpenClaw - TypeScript skill extensions
  • Qwen Code - Agent YAML configurations

Key Features

Plugin Conversion

Convert Claude Code plugins to 10+ AI agent platforms with a single command. Automatically handles tool mappings, permissions, and format differences.

Bundled Plugin

Includes the compound-engineering plugin with 29 specialized agents, 22 workflow commands, and 20 skills for code review, planning, and documentation.

Config Sync

Sync your personal Claude Code configuration (skills, commands, MCP servers) to all detected AI coding tools automatically.

Zero Install

Use via bunx without global installation. Run conversions instantly with no setup required.

The Compound Engineering Plugin

The bundled plugin embodies a compound engineering philosophy: each unit of work should make subsequent work easier, not harder.

Core Workflow

The plugin centers around a compound workflow:
Plan → Work → Review → Compound → Repeat
  • /ce:plan - Turn feature ideas into detailed implementation plans
  • /ce:work - Execute plans with worktrees and task tracking
  • /ce:review - Multi-agent code review before merging
  • /ce:compound - Document learnings to make future work easier
Each cycle compounds: plans inform future plans, reviews catch more issues, patterns get documented.

Philosophy

“Each unit of engineering work should make subsequent units easier—not harder.”
Traditional development accumulates technical debt. Compound engineering inverts this:
  • 80% planning and review - Catch issues early, plan thoroughly
  • 20% execution - High-quality implementations are easier to extend
  • Codify knowledge - Captured learnings become reusable skills
  • Quality compounds - Every review improves your review agents

Why Use This Tool?

Cross-platform flexibility: Use the same powerful agents, skills, and workflows across different AI coding assistants. No need to rebuild your tooling when switching platforms.
Whether you want to:
  • Install the compound-engineering plugin to your preferred AI assistant
  • Convert your own Claude Code plugins to other formats
  • Sync your personal configuration across multiple tools
This CLI makes it seamless.
