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.

shroud

revenantworks/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.
