Plan a hackathon, either from a team's real backlog or as open-ended creative play with Claude Code. Use when a champion wants to run a hack day or a shorter hack session.
Collected from public GitHub. Every version is saved exactly as it was and never changes. Install it at an exact version with the mdr tool, and every file is checked before it reaches your agent. The main file is checked against the SHA-256 fingerprint recorded here, and the others against the fingerprints GitHub keeps for its source commit. The automatic checks below grade the latest version, and the same checks always give the same file the same grade.
What the file says
## Start here Say in one line what you'll make: a hackathon plan with projects, a run of show, and an invite, built from your backlog or as open-ended creative play. What the champion typed after the command, if anything: $ARGUMENTS If that's blank, run the guided flow below. If it has text, or they already told you some of this, use what it answers and ask only for what's still missing. Then ask: 1. What kind of hackathon? Use AskUserQuestion with "From our backlog" and "Open-ended creative play". Mark neither as recommended, and ask this one even after "go". 2. How long? Use AskUserQuestion with "Two hours" (recommended), "Half a day", and "A full day". 3. When is it? A plain question. The default is next Friday. 4. Which teams? A plain question, with no default. 5. About how many people? A plain question. The default is about ten. 6. For the backlog only: what can I read? Use AskUserQuestion with "Not yet" (recommended), "Scan this repo for TODOs and skipped tests", and "Scan the repo and read open issues with `gh`". Read nothing for the backlog until the champion picks a read. With "Not yet", ask them to name a few backlog items instead. …

How to install
mdr add anthropics/claude-plugins-official/hackathon@sha256:429be605f2858d69The line at the top of this page pins the label git:20261106.1aa4a4b, which is what most people want. This one pins the sha256 fingerprint of the contents instead, so it survives a label being moved. Either way the exact version is written to mdr.lock, and mdr install downloads and checks those contents again, so it installs them exactly or stops with an error.
