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.

More context & usage mods

jev-compact-gate

41

tdimino/claude-code-minoan

Jev decides when the session compacts, inside a 280k–400k token band; Claude's own summary does the compacting.

Context & usage mods/plugin install

usage-quota

29

anantraghunath/claude-code-usage-quota-mod

Know your Claude limits before they hit you (Live band above the Claude Code prompt): 5 Hour and Weekly usage (whole account) with a live usage forecast against limit resets, context window usage, one-click Compact and per-session Auto compact (30% default).

Context & usage mods/plugin install

desktop-statusline

19

centminmod/claude-plugins

Status band above the prompt in the Claude Desktop app's Code tab: folder, git branch and state, session age, prompt count and cost, a context meter, 5-hour and weekly plan usage limit meters with reset countdowns, last-turn model, duration and cache hit rate, idle time against the prompt-cache TTL, compactions, server-side tool use, subagents by state, and one row per workflow run with live done/failed counts. A notification (or toast) at 80% and 95% of a usage limit. Draws only on the desktop surface, so a CLI statusLine is left alone.

Context & usage mods/plugin install

context-budget

28

melodic-software/claude-code-plugins

Measures a Claude Code session's fixed startup context payload per item at a pinned binary version, including per-tool attribution of the built-in tool pools that /context reports only as totals, derived by A/B deny differencing. Falls back from an SDK meter to a headless /context parser, then to an error rather than a wrong number. Keeps a before/after ledger per lever. Shows a live context breakdown in a pane or above the prompt. Report-only by default; fix applies one approved project trim.

Context & usage mods/plugin install

optim-jev

51

Oqura-ai/optim-jev

Jev based token-usage optimization tools for Claude Code workflows.

Context & usage mods/plugin install

context-guard

28

melodic-software/claude-code-plugins

Per-session context-window observability. A mod writes each session's context-window figures to a snapshot file and shows the person a toast and a transcript line when the context zone (smart, acceptable or dumb, from bands in zones.json) worsens; with model_notices on (off by default) it also tells Claude the zone at each crossing, approach and compaction. /context-guard prints status and toggles an optional band row. It answers a status tool. A PostCompact hook leaves a marker.
