Claude Code mod
cc-buddy
Brings back /buddy: the small creature that watched you code, above the prompt again. Restores the companion in ~/.claude.json exactly (same species, rarity, hat and stats), hatches an egg for new accounts, levels up from commits and passing tests, unlocks a 49-buddy roster as you ship, reacts to Claude's work for free, answers in a Haiku-written line when you say its name, and shows in a pane on desktop and mobile. Needs CLAUDE_CODE_ENABLE_FUNCTION_HOOKS=1.

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.
