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.

waypoints
afterever/claude-mods
A route for /goal and any multi-step work, built from Claude's own task plan: the plan drawn as a line of nodes and legs above the prompt, an ETA at the goal's own pace, a pane that opens by itself with the whole task trail, and every chat's goal in /waypoints. Follows Agent-Pulse's palette and animation. Claude is asked to plan by the mod itself. Fork of Nate Herk's goal-meter 1.0.0.
