hmans-beans is a Claude Code plugin that connects Beans, a flat-file CLI issue tracker, so you and your agent can track work in the repo without a hosted PM database.
About
hmans-beans is a Claude Code plugin around Beans, a CLI-based flat-file issue tracker built for humans and robots alike. Developers who want issue history inside the repo—not another SaaS board—can list, create, and organize work from the terminal while keeping agents in sync through configure and prime style setup. The bundle ships one plugin keyworded around beans, Claude, track, and configure, which makes it a productivity and PM adjunct rather than a full agile suite. If you already live in Claude Code and want issues that agents can read and update as files, this is a low-friction alternative to heavy PM tools.
- CLI-first flat-file issue storage that stays in your repo
- Designed for both human operators and coding-agent workflows
- Claude-oriented configure and prime flows for agent-assisted tracking
- No hosted database—issues live as plain files you can diff and review
- Community plugin bundle with a single focused beans integration
