Claude Code mod

claude-council

Consult multiple AI coding agents (Gemini, OpenAI, Grok, Perplexity, Kimi, any model OpenRouter routes to, plus codex, antigravity, grok, kimi and cursor CLIs when installed, and a local ollama model) to get diverse perspectives on coding problems, with a streaming pane in tmux or inside Claude Code, and, once switched on, a heads-up side-check where one council seat, codex by default, rereads a long turn and shows one line above the prompt about something you may have missed.

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.
