Mods, by what they do

Mods are Claude Code's newest extension point (v2.1.287+): plugins with code that runs inside Claude Code, so they can draw panes and bands, restyle the interface and step into tool calls.

ship-check

panyuti-ai/ship-check-mods

A development verification board: shows which tests, builds and type checks really ran, how they ended, and whether the result still matches your code.

Pane & dashboard mods/plugin install

ship-it

LorcanChinnock/claude-desk-neighbours

One press raises a PR for the session's work, then watches CI and reviews and works through the feedback until it's ready to merge. Tracks every other PR the session links, too.

Git & GitHub mods

ship-state

tyree88/tempered_plugins

Band above the prompt: branch, dirty files, ahead/behind, PR, CI and prod deploy for the repo the session works in; toasts when CI finishes or prod goes live; one-key commit/push button.

Git & GitHub mods/plugin install

shot-preview

mikhin/claude-shot-preview

Draws a thumbnail under a Claude reply that names a screenshot path, with a click to open it

Workflow mods/plugin install

shouldnt-you-know

shihchengwei-lab/cc-mod-shouldnt-you-know

After Claude edits code, a side look at the task and the change shows one plain-language structural note above the prompt; it never enters Claude's context.

Context & usage mods/plugin install

show-work

five82/claude-mods

Shows what Claude is running and adding to the model's context, the way pi does: every tool call on its own row, the end of Bash output, how long each call took, injected context, and a spinner naming the running call.

Context & usage mods/plugin install

shunt

miguelrisero/better-shunt

A Claude Mod for the shunt gateway: a band above the prompt shows how much of each window is used and the time to reset — the shared account pool's, read from shunt's GET /usage, or the session's own Claude rate limits off shunt — and /shunt:usage prints the pool's full breakdown.

Pane & dashboard mods/plugin install

side-bet

sreshtalluri/claude-mods

A play-money prediction market on your own Claude session: bet on tests, files touched and permission asks each turn.

Guard & safety mods

side-chat

varunmoka7/side-chat

Ask Claude a side question in a pane next to your work. The main conversation never sees it. Works like the desktop app's /btw.

Pane & dashboard mods/plugin install

sidecast

nmorton13/sidecast

A podcast player inside Claude Code: subscribe to feeds, browse episodes in a pane, and play them with a now-playing bar above the prompt

Spinner, theme & fun mods/plugin install

sidechat

gabedeluna/claude-mods

A side panel for questions about the current session: it reads the conversation from cache, looks things up read-only, recaps, says what the main thread is doing, draws diagrams as artifacts and sends a note to main.

Context & usage mods/plugin install

sidepad

duqaXxX/sidepad

A read-only side pane beside the transcript: it opens the file Claude last edited at the end of the turn, lists directories one page at a time, draws code highlighted and Markdown rendered, and sends a selected passage back to Claude with a command or the next prompt.

Pane & dashboard mods/plugin install

sidequest

farhad-aman/claude-sidequest

Sidequest for Claude Code: play Snake in a side pane while Claude does the main quest; works in any terminal

Spinner, theme & fun mods

sidequest

poindexter12/loadout

The Loadout's core work board and orchestration loop for Claude Code.

Pane & dashboard mods/plugin install

sieve

trsdn/sieve

Keeps unnecessary tool output out of context in Claude Code and Copilot CLI, with a shared local strands-decider for close calls.

Guard & safety mods/plugin install

About Claude Code mods

What is a Claude Code mod?

Since version 2.1.287, a mod is a Claude Code plugin with JavaScript or TypeScript handlers that run inside Claude Code. Unlike a settings hook or a status line script, a mod can draw panes beside the transcript and bands above the prompt, add buttons and toasts, restyle the spinner and tool rows, and hold, rewrite or answer a tool call. Mods work in the CLI, the Code tab of the desktop app and the VS Code extension.

How do I install a Claude Code mod?

A mod installs like any plugin. Inside Claude Code, add its marketplace with /plugin marketplace add owner/repo, then run /plugin install name@marketplace. To try one without installing it, clone the repo and start Claude Code with --plugin-dir pointing at the mod folder. Every mod page here has the exact commands.

What else is in this directory?

Every other way people customise Claude Code: status line scripts, settings hooks, custom slash commands, output styles, themes, plugin marketplaces and workflow kits, plus the apps people run it with, such as GUIs and mobile clients, usage and cost trackers, session browsers, model routers, multi-agent and worktree runners and editor integrations. Skills and MCP servers have their own directories.

What does a mod's reach mean?

Reach is the widest thing a mod's code asks Claude Code to do, from a static scan of its source: L0 only draws and remembers, L1 reads files or settings, L2 writes files, runs processes or drives Claude, and L3 reaches the network. It is a footprint, not a verdict: a pull request tracker has to run git. A mod runs with your permissions, so read its code before you install it.

How is popularity measured?

By the GitHub stars of each repo, with forks, curated awesome lists and listing in Anthropic's plugin directory as smaller signals. When one repo holds many mods they share its stars, so only its first few rank high. The data refreshes every day.

Are Claude Code mods safe?

Mods, hooks, status lines and most tools run on your machine with your permissions, so treat them like any code from the internet: check a mod's reach, read the code before installing, prefer well-starred and recently updated repos, and check the license. Run claude plugin validate on a clone to list what a mod hooks and calls without running it, and start Claude Code with --safe-mode to turn every customization off for a session.
