🧩 claude-mods

Panels, guardrails and quality-of-life mods for Claude Code: see what fills your context, how fast you burn your plan, and what the agent is running right now, and block the commands you never want run.

If a mod saves you from one bad approve, a ⭐ on this repo helps other people find it.

What is this?

Claude Code is a black box while it works. You can't see the context window filling up until it compacts away the decision you made an hour ago. You find out you've burned your 5-hour limit when it stops answering. You approve a command, tab away, and come back ten minutes later to find it has been waiting on a *second* approval the whole time. And most people discover /rewind only after the edit they wanted to undo.

claude-mods is a set of small plugins that open that box. Each mod is a standalone Claude Code plugin built on function hooks, the in-process plugin API: it sees every prompt, tool call and turn as it happens, and it can draw panels, toasts and status lines inside Claude Code itself. Install all eleven or only the ones you want.

They are deliberately boring about tokens. Nine of the eleven never call a model. The two that do (prompt-coach's review and context-keeper's handoff note) say so and are easy to turn off.

🏗️ How it works

What a mod sees. Each mod registers hooks on engine events. A tool.call hook sits in front of every tool the agent runs (Bash, Edit, MCP tools, subagents) and sees its real arguments…
