How Claude Code mods work
- A mod is a plugin with a JavaScript or TypeScript module that runs inside Claude Code (version 2.1.287 or later). It can draw panes beside the transcript, a band above the prompt, buttons and toasts, restyle the spinner and tool rows, and watch or rewrite tool calls and prompts.
- It installs like any plugin: add its marketplace with /plugin marketplace add owner/repo, then /plugin install name@marketplace.
- Check what a mod can reach before installing: it runs with your permissions. Reach goes from drawing only, to reading files, to writing files or running processes, to the network. Run claude plugin validate on a clone to list its hooks and calls without running it.
- Turn one off from the Installed tab in /plugin, or start Claude Code with --safe-mode to skip every customization for a session.

ruflo-mods
80kruvnet/ruflo
ruflo as a Claude Code mod (function hooks, ADR-404): in-process prompt routing, edit learning signals, tighten-only tool checks from ruflo policy, the cost-tracker budget ladder, a mod trust gate for newly installed mods, and the $.ruflo noun other mods compose their status with. Opt-in and removable: the classic hook-handler hooks stay the default and take every event back whenever the mod is not loaded.
