Claude Code mod
cc-tamagotchi
A Tamagotchi that lives in Claude Code: it hatches, eats the work Claude does, leaves bugs behind, gets sick, throws tantrums and grows into one of eight adults. An animated pixel LCD in the terminal, an egg-shaped device in the desktop app. Zero tokens.

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.

aecheman27-gif/claude-mods
Messenger-style chat for Claude Code: your prompts on the right in a rival color, Claude on the left, only running or failing tools stand out. 441 themes. (Vendored from github.com/angeldelbiondo/claude-chat-bubbles @ 5597448, MIT. Modified for my-claude-mods: the footer keeps the row beneath, so plan-progress's button stays; other mods' panes get the backdrop without side padding; an empty tool result gets no stripe; the spinner shimmers from the main turn's start to its end.)
