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.

sidekick
4FynnXland/fynn-mods
Checks your message before it is sent, by rules and, where worthwhile, briefly with Haiku 5.5 (Sonnet 5.5 writes rewritten versions in level auto): a hint line under your message or a question (new chat with handoff, a skill, a clearer version, or "wrong chat?" when the message belongs to another project). Names due maintenance once per chat (/skill-doctor, prompt-audit, consolidate-memory, /init). With worklist installed, a long message with several tasks can be split into 3-4 to-dos, and /later plans text as to-dos. Five levels (off, cache, guide, plan, auto) with a colored label in the prompt footer. /savings shows cost and measurable savings at a glance, /savings detail compares the models over time. Optional, off by default (/sidekick notes on): while Claude works, a "good to know" note above the prompt when you likely missed something with consequences (one question to your main model over the conversation, every 6 steps). /sidekick help shows all commands and settings as a table.
