Anyone know how I can calculate principal stresses s1, s2 and s3 from
stress tensor using gmsh?

I saw there was a request for a plugin to do that. Was it implemented?


Yes: the principal stresses are the eigenvalues of the stress tensor, so you can use Plugin(Eigenvalues) to compute them. If you also need the principal directions, use Plugin(Eigenvectors).
