Screen-record Claude Code without leaking secrets: tells the model to keep keys, emails and private words off screen, and masks them in the transcript display…

Lawrence Chase's Claude Code marketplace: code review, diagram, and test-evidence skills, plus a set of small Claude Code mods that add band lines and panes to the terminal UI.
/plugin marketplace add lchase/skills
/plugin install smart-review@lchase
/plugin install tldraw@lchase
/plugin install test-drive@lchase
/plugin install cache-clock@lchase
/plugin install usage-gauge@lchase
/plugin install auto-handoff@lchase
/plugin install agent-watch@lchase
/plugin install recording-mode@lchase
Each plugin is independent; install only what you want. @lchase is the marketplace name (from .claude-plugin/marketplace.json), not the GitHub slug.
New versions ship whenever the version string in a plugin's manifest changes. Claude Code refreshes marketplaces in the background by default, so you normally pick up updates without doing anything. To pull them right now:
/plugin marketplace update lchase # refresh this marketplace's manifest
/plugin update smart-review@lchase # apply a pending update to one plugin
/plugin update tldraw@lchase
/plugin marketplace update (no name) refreshes every marketplace. From a shell: claude plugin marketplace update lchase and claude plugin update <plugin>@lchase.
If a plugin gets into a bad state (stale cached script, half-applied update), do a clean reinstall:
/plugin uninstall tldraw
/plugin marketplace update lchase
/plugin install tldraw@lchase
Nuclear option, re-register the whole marketplace:
/plugin marketplace remove lchase
/plugin marketplace add lchase/skills
/plugin install smart-review@lchase
/plugin install tldraw@lchase
Before this repo became a multi-plugin marketplace it published one plugin from the repo root under a marketplace named chase. If you installed it back then, clear the old registration first:
/plugin uninstall smart-review
/plugin uninstall tldraw # only if you installed the short-lived tldraw@chase
/plugin marketplace remove chase
/plugin marketplace add lchase/skills
/plugin install smart-review@lchase
/plugin install tldraw@lchase
The tldraw skill's command also changed: /tldraw:tldraw → /tldraw:diagram.
| Plugin | What it does | Skills / commands | Harnesses |
|---|---|---|---|
| smart-review | Ensemble code review: six specialized lenses over a diff, merged into one deduplicated, severity-ranked verdict | /smart-review:{review,min,max,add-pr-review,review-pr-comments} + auto-trigger | Claude Code, Cursor, Codex, Gemini CLI, any AGENTS.md agent |
| tldraw | Natural-language description → editable tldraw document (.tldr) + rendered PNG/SVG | /tldraw:diagram + auto-trigger | Claude Code only (needs Node + npx) |
| test-drive | Before/after evidence of a UI or API change: record the app before you edit, replay the same scripted scenario after, with a deterministic verdict | /test-drive:{baseline,compare} + auto-trigger | Claude Code only (needs Node; UI also needs Playwright and ffmpeg) |
| cache-clock | Mod: band line showing whether the prompt cache is warm, with countdown, reuse %, cached tokens, and estimated cold-rewrite cost | Compact button, /cache-clock | Claude Code only |
| usage-gauge | Mod: band line with plan usage windows (5-hour, weekly, spend limit), reset times, pace warning, session cost on API billing, threshold toasts | /usage-gauge (detail pane) | Claude Code only |
| auto-handoff | Mod: band line showing how full the chat is; saves a HANDOFF.md at a threshold (auto or on request), then clear and continue or resume in a new session | /auto-handoff | Claude Code only |
| agent-watch | Mod: band line showing who is doing the work this turn (main chat, helper agents, models, tasks, status, skills), plus a pane with per-agent blocks, per-model totals, timeline | /agent-watch | Claude Code only |
| recording-mode | Mod: screen-record without leaking secrets; tells the model to keep keys, emails, private words off screen and masks them in the transcript display only, red REC chip | /rec | Claude Code only |
An ensemble code review: several specialized lenses, one merged verdict, not another pile of comments.
Most code review, human or AI, is one reviewer making a single pass and leaving a list of comments. This runs six specialized lenses instead (spec-conformance, correctness, security, performance, design, and tests), then merges the results into one verdict: duplicates collapsed, findings that several lenses independently raise weighted up, conflicting advice reconciled, severity rolled up, structural problems first, nits capped. The merge is the point. An ensemble without it is just louder, and a longer checklist handed to one reviewer only dilutes its attention and repeats its own misses.
Two modes: a fast single pass (min) for tight loops, and an orchestrated ensemble (max) for pre-merge review. Auto-routing picks between them by change size and sensitivity.
The skill lives in plugins/smart-review/skills/smart-review/ as harness-neutral markdown. Each harness gets a thin manifest pointing at that same directory, so no skill content is copied or forked.
| Harness | Install | min | max | Slash commands / auto-trigger |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Claude Code | /plugin marketplace add lchase/skills then /plugin install smart-review@lchase | ✅ | ✅ isolated parallel subagents | ✅ |
| Cursor | point Cursor at plugins/smart-review/.cursor-plugin/ | ✅ | ✅ sequential ensemble | via session-start hook |
| Codex | plugins/smart-review/.codex-plugin/ manifest | ✅ | ✅ sequential ensemble | no |
| Gemini CLI | gemini extensions install https://github.com/lchase/skills (reads root gemini-extension.json) | ✅ | ✅ sequential ensemble | via GEMINI.md |
| Any AGENTS.md agent | reads root AGENTS.md | ✅ | ✅ sequential ensemble | no |
max's isolated parallel subagents are a Claude Code capability. A model panel (plugins/smart-review/skills/smart-review/references/ensemble.md, off by default) rides on top when the harness can route more than one model. Otherwise max is single-model. Elsewhere max runs the same spec-gate, six lenses, and merge as a disciplined sequential walk. Design and internals: plugins/smart-review/SMART-REVIEW.md.
Claude Code slash commands:
/smart-review:review: auto (routes to min or max by size + sensitivity)/smart-review:min: fast single-pass review/smart-review:max: orchestrated ensemble review/smart-review:add-pr-review <PR number or URL>: reviews a GitHub PR and, after you confirm what to publish, posts the findings as PR comments/smart-review:review-pr-comments <PR number or URL>: triages a PR's existing unresolved review comments, fixes or explains each after your approval, replies, and resolves the threadThe skill also triggers automatically when you ask Claude to review a diff, PR, or branch.
Turn a described diagram (flowchart, architecture / system diagram, process map, decision tree, state machine) into two artifacts: an editable .tldr document (opens at tldraw.com or in the tldraw editor) and a rendered PNG/SVG for docs and PRs.
Claude writes a {nodes, edges} spec from your description; a bundled Node script does a simple layered auto-layout, emits the .tldr, and renders images by loading it into a headless-Chromium tldraw instance via @kitschpatrol/tldraw-cli (first run downloads Chromium, ~1 min, cached).
/plugin install tldraw@lchase
Claude Code only. Skill: /tldraw:diagram (also auto-triggers on "draw this diagram", "diagram this flow", "make a tldraw of…"). Details: plugins/tldraw/skills/diagram/SKILL.md.
A test drive is an e2e test that happens to produce video, and the "before" is part of the process rather than something reconstructed later. Run /test-drive:baseline before you edit: it writes a short browser scenario and records the app as it stands. Make the change, then run /test-drive:compare: it replays the identical scenario with Playwright and composes a labeled side-by-side MP4. The pass/warn/fail verdict comes from the scenario's assertions, not from reading the video.
Backend changes work the same way with "kind": "api": the scenario is a list of HTTP steps (method, path, body, expected status, JSON fields, and server-log lines to expect or avoid). There is nothing to screen-record, so each step captures the request, the response, and the server log lines it produced, and compare writes a before/after report.md instead of a video. Secrets are redacted from the stored transcript (best effort, extendable per scenario with redact), and the finished report is scanned and flagged if anything still looks secret.
/plugin install test-drive@lchase
Claude Code only. UI scenarios need ffmpeg and Playwright in the repo under test; API scenarios need only Node 18+. Only the working tree is ever run, so there is no second checkout to boot. Details: baseline and compare.
Five small plugins that change Claude Code's own interface instead of adding a task skill. Each draws a band line above the prompt (some add a side pane or slash command), is independent of the others, and works on Claude Code only.

Releasing: users only get an update when a plugin's version string changes, so bump it on every user-facing change and push to main.
./plugins/smart-review/scripts/bump-version.sh <version>..claude-plugin/plugin.json.Once pushed, installed clients pick it up on their next background marketplace refresh, or immediately with /plugin marketplace update lchase.
