Claude Code Mods: خلّ Claude Code يشتغل على طريقتك بدون ما تكتب كودClaude Code Mods: Make Claude Code Work Your Way Without Writing Code

Key terms

Mod

A plugin with JavaScript or TypeScript code that runs inside Claude Code itself. It can change how the interface looks and behaves.

Hook

A function inside a mod that Claude Code runs when an event happens, such as a tool call, a submitted prompt or part of the interface being drawn.

Tool call

Any time Claude reads a file, runs a command or edits code. A mod can watch it, change it or stop it.

Marketplace

A place you publish plugins and install them from, usually a GitHub repository.

The steps

1. 1

   Step 1

   Check your Claude Code version

   Mods need Claude Code v2.1.287 or later, and they are on by default.

   Open your terminal and run the command below. If your version is older, update Claude Code first.

   

   PromptIn your terminal

   Copy

   claude --version

   Tip: If you use Claude Code through a company, an admin can limit mods in managed settings.

2. 2

   Step 2

   Know what a mod can do

   A mod can draw a pane beside the transcript or a band above the prompt, and add a /command that runs at once without a Claude turn.

   It can hold any tool call and ask you first, or redraw parts of Claude Code's own interface, like the spinner.

   Drawing shows in the terminal and in the Code tab of the Claude app. In VS Code and cloud sessions the hooks run but nothing is drawn.

   Step 3

   Ask Claude to write a mod

   You do not need to write code. In a Claude Code session, describe what you want in one clear sentence: where it shows, what it shows, and when it updates.

   Claude writes the mod files for you.

   PromptPrompt for a new mod

   Copy

   Make me a mod: a pane next to the chat that charts how full my context is after each request. Show the percentage in big text and keep a small line chart of the last [10] requests.

4. 4

   Step 4

   Try a command guard

   One of the most useful mods: it watches every Bash command before it runs, and holds risky ones until you confirm.

   Edit the list to match your work.

   PromptCommand guard prompt

   Copy

   Make me a mod that watches every Bash tool call. If the command matches any of these: [rm -rf, git push --force, git reset --hard], hold the call and ask me to confirm before it runs. Let every other command run as usual.

5. 5

   Step 5

   Try a focus lock

   A mod that keeps you on one task. You start it with a command, it shows a band above the prompt with the task and the time left, and if you ask for something off task it answers with a reminder.

   PromptFocus lock prompt

   Copy

   Make me a mod with a /focus command. /focus [task] [minutes] starts a sprint and shows a band above the prompt with the task and a countdown. Until the timer ends, if I send a prompt that is clearly unrelated to the task, answer it yourself with a short reminder instead of sending it to Claude. /focus off ends the sprint.

6. 6

   Step 6

   Install a ready mod from a marketplace

   A mod installs like any plugin: the plugin name, an @, then the marketplace name.

   If you install it from your shell while a session is open, run /reload-plugins in that session to load it.

   code.claude.com

   

   PromptInside a Claude Code session

   Copy

   /plugin install [plugin-name]@[marketplace]
   /reload-plugins

7. 7

   Step 7

   Check any mod before you trust it

   A mod runs with your permissions: it can read and write your files, see every prompt you send, and approve commands Claude would have asked you about.

   Before you install one, get the plugin's files and run validate. The hooks and calls lines list every event it handles and everything it asks Claude Code to do.

   code.claude.com

   

   PromptIn your terminal

   Copy

   claude plugin validate ./[mod-folder]

   Tip: Install only from authors and marketplaces you trust.

8. 8

   Step 8

   Turn mods off when you need to

   Disable one mod from the Installed tab in /plugin, or start Claude Code with --safe-mode for one session without any mods.

   To stop all of them in every session, set disableAllHooks to true in your settings file.

   code.claude.com

   

   PromptIn ~/.claude/settings.json

   Copy

   {
     "disableAllHooks": true
   }

Ready prompts to copy

Make me a mod that shows how long the current task has been running beside the spinner, and prints a one line summary with the total time and number of tool calls when the turn ends.
