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.

More memory & instructions mods
lumberroom-memory
1lumberroom/lumberroom-claude-code
lumberroom as Claude Code's memory: the digest in the system prompt, a periodic search-and-write reminder, optional per-prompt recall, built-in memory off.
neo4j-memory
1troglodyte/claude-sqlite-mem
Persistent memory for Claude Code in a local SQLite file (node:sqlite; no server, no container). Injects standing facts and a subsystem map at session start, captures new facts at compaction and session end, and exposes search tools. A machine's Neo4j graph moves across by itself on first start.
handoff
1zaripovfarrukh/claude-code-mods
Hands a long session over to a fresh one before context runs out: watches the context fill, offers to write HANDOFF.md from the session's own transcript, and loads it into the next session.
segmem
1mahuebel/segmem
Segmented, scoped memory for agents: one file, SQLite, no daemon. Wake at session start, recall on every prompt, staleness nag at stop.
handoff
1AJclemendor/my-mods
Hand a task to a native context-sharing subtask with saved model and effort, one worktree, and a PR against main.
session-handoff
1m-tababi/session-handoff
Writes a structured session handoff on demand to ~/.claude/handoffs/<project>/ (never into the project), resumes from the newest one, restarts into a fresh conversation with the handoff (pill or /handoff fresh) and hints once when the context fills up.
