Claude Code mod

docs-gardener

Keeps a project's markdown true to the project: deterministic checks (dead references, stale TODOs, duplicated paragraphs, orphans, dated series, oversized files, finished plans) at write time and from a docs_check tool, and /docs audit, which adds a model edit plan you apply item by item from a pane, or all at once for a scheduled run. Only /docs audit calls a model (one Haiku call per flagged file by default).

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.
