Claude Code mod

vitals

A light, framed live dashboard above the prompt, in the terminal and in the desktop app: model and effort, context and account-wide plan-limit meters (5-hour, weekly, per model, usage credits), cost and burn rate, tokens and cache per turn and session, auto-compaction, live tools, background shells and every subagent with its model and effort, plus weekly and monthly usage and the account's plan limits by product. Two columns on wide terminals, sized to the rows it has, never scrolling. Requires ccusage (npm i -g ccusage) for the usage section. /vitals-low, /vitals-medium and /vitals-high set the detail level; /vitals pane full view, /vitals report usage report.

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.
