Claude Code mod

effort-router

Picks the reasoning effort for each turn of the main conversation with a System One classifier (hosted Jev or a compatible service) and shows the level on the spinner and on the line that closes the turn. In shadow mode it shows and logs its pick and sends the session's effort; in enforce mode it sends the pick. Requires 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.
