dev-servers

A Claude Code mod that lists the dev servers running on your machine in a side pane.

┌ Dev servers ─────────────────────┐
│ shop-web                      :4321 │
│ astro dev · up 2h 5m             │
│ Open [ Restart ] [ Kill ]        │
└──────────────────────────────────┘
  • Finds every process listening on a TCP port below 49152 whose runtime is a dev runtime (node, bun, deno, python, ruby, php, java, go …), refreshed every 5 seconds. System services such as AirPlay are left out.
  • Shows the project (the server's working directory), its ports, the tool it runs (astro dev rather than the full node …/node_modules/.bin/astro dev) and its uptime.
  • Open opens http://localhost:<port>.
  • Kill sends SIGTERM, then SIGKILL if the server is still running after 5 seconds.
  • Restart stops it and runs the same command again from the same directory, detached so it outlives the Claude Code session. Output goes to $TMPDIR/dev-servers-<port>.log.

The pane opens with the session when the terminal is wide enough for a sidebar; otherwise run /dev-servers.

macOS and Linux (uses lsof and ps).

Install

/plugin install dev-servers --marketplace kk5190/claude-code-mods

Limits

Restart rebuilds the command from the process list, which does not keep shell quoting: a server started with an argument containing spaces may not relaunch correctly. Use Kill and start it yourself in that case.
