Claude Code mod
routine-watch
Tells you when a scheduled routine (a scheduled-task run) stops to wait on you: a Mac notification, an optional phone push and a status line once a permission ask has stood 20 s (configurable; auto mode decides most asks by itself sooner) or when it asks you a question, plus a note when it finishes. Optionally lets routines read the web without asking. No model calls.
Install
git clone https://github.com/joeldg/claude-mods.git

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.
