Hi Dmitry,

I've written a starcluster_plugin.py for
crosscat<https://github.com/mit-probabilistic-computing-project/crosscat/blob/master/crosscat/starcluster_plugin.py>which
you might find useful. No one has every critiqued it, so I can't say
its idiomatic, but feedback is welcome!

Re cluster name, look into using the development
shell<http://star.mit.edu/cluster/docs/latest/manual/plugins.html?highlight=shell#using-the-development-shell>
to
help you prototype and figure out which functions you need. Playing around
in the shell, I found that nodes have a parent_cluster property, so
master.parent_cluster is probably what you want. You could do a similar
thing to figure out what to do for template_name.

Best
Dan
