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 guard & safety mods
rate-limit-guard
2sciccolella/claude-ratelimit-mod
At 90% of the 5-hour limit, tells the orchestrator and every subagent to checkpoint and stop at a safe point, then resumes them after the window resets.
secret-drop
2aislam23/secret-drop
Secure input window for API keys and passwords: Claude asks, you type into a masked field, the mod writes .env / GitHub Secrets itself. The value never enters the chat.
pii-guard
2dave-net-positive/Claude_Code_PII_Redactor
Holds prompts, @file contents and Read results that contain PII or secrets behind a review pane with per-type allow/redact decisions.
shroud
2revenantworks/claude-skills
Revenantworks shroud mod for Claude Code 2.1.287+: masks secrets (its own shapes plus the gitleaks rule set), stream keys and, if you turn them on, personal data and your own word list before Claude reads them (restoring a value only into the gitignored file it came from), flags a credential keywarden marked for rotation, and marks web, MCP and mail results and messages from routines or other sessions as data. Kept apart from the vigil plugin, so safety never depends on the dashboard. Never blocks your work; keeps no record; contacts no service.
obw
2musingfox/cc-plugins
Obsidian Workspace — project-scoped vault productivity (capture / notes / PM). Skills own folder layout and templates; /obw:pm splits a spec into blocking tickets; /issue is a Claude Mod pane that lists a view of the project's dashboard, draws Mermaid as text diagrams, and can open a card in the browser through viz. Vault I/O uses the Obsidian CLI via the official obsidian-cli skill.

In-process guard for tamirs-superpowers: holds a destructive shell command (force push, rm -rf, git reset --hard, ...) until you answer Proceed or Cancel, and refuses a file write in the main checkout while an orchestration objective is active. Companion to the core plugin; Claude Code and Claude Desktop only.
