claude-code-mods

Small plugins for Claude Code. Each mod is one TypeScript file of function hooks.

<img src="assets/hero.svg" alt="Claude Code with all four mods running: seatbelt blocking a dangerous rm, the session-dash pane, the turn-meter status line and a ding toast" width="900">

turn-meter     a turn timer in the status line
seatbelt       blocks destructive commands and edits to secrets
ding           a chime when a long turn finishes
session-dash   /dash, a live pane of what the session did
context-meter  a context window meter under the prompt; click it for the breakdown

Also: claude-familiar, a pixel companion that sits above the prompt and reacts to your session, and claude-readout, which names the files on the folded Read 3 files line.

install

git clone https://github.com/lucenity0/claude-code-mods ~/claude-code-mods
claude --plugin-dir ~/claude-code-mods/seatbelt --plugin-dir ~/claude-code-mods/session-dash

To turn on function hooks and load the mods in every session, set this in ~/.claude/settings.json:

{
  "env": {
    "CLAUDE_CODE_ENABLE_FUNCTION_HOOKS": "1",
    "CLAUDE_CODE_PLUGIN_DIRS": "~/claude-code-mods/turn-meter:~/claude-code-mods/seatbelt:~/claude-code-mods/ding:~/claude-code-mods/session-dash:~/claude-code-mods/context-meter"
  }
}

These use function hooks, an early-access API that CLAUDE_CODE_ENABLE_FUNCTION_HOOKS turns on, and were tested on Claude Code 2.1.287.

&nbsp;

turn-meter

The status line counts up while Claude works. When the turn ends it shows the summary.

✓ 41s · 12.3k in · 1.8k out
on('turn.start', ($, e, next) => {
  ticker?.cancel()
  let seconds = 0
  $.ui.status('running 0s')
  ticker = $.clock.every(1000, () => {
    seconds += 1
    $.ui.status(`running ${formatDuration(seconds * 1000)}`)
  })

  return next(e)
})

&nbsp;

seatbelt

Checks every Bash, Edit and Write call before it runs, and denies the ones that would hurt.

● Bash(rm -rf /tmp/build/../../)
  ⎿  seatbelt: blocked `rm -rf /tmp/build/../../` (rm -rf on / or ~): it
     recursively deletes the filesystem root, a top-level folder or your home folder…
blocks                                  still allows
rm -rf /   rm -fr ~   rm -rf /x/../../  rm -rf node_modules
git push -f origin main                 git push --force origin my-branch
curl … | sh                             curl -o install.sh …
mkfs   dd of=/dev/…   chmod -R 777      chmod 755 script.sh
edits to .env  *.pem  ~/.ssh/*          .env.example

Each rule is a small object in rules.ts:

{
  name: 'curl | sh',
  reason: 'pipes a script from the internet straight into a shell',
  matches: command => /\b(curl|wget)\b[^|]*\|\s*(sudo\s+)?(ba|z|da)?sh\b/.test(command),
}

It's a guardrail against accidents, not a sandbox.

&nbsp;

ding

When a turn that ran longer than 30 seconds finishes, ding shows a toast and plays an original two-note chime. The sound plays on macOS only.

{ "pluginConfigs": { "ding": { "options": { "thresholdSeconds": 60, "sound": false } } } }

&nbsp;

session-dash

Type /dash to open the pane. Type /dash again, or press q, to close it.

context-meter

A meter sits at the bottom right of the prompt, under the input. It turns yellow at 60% and red at 80%.

[ Count exactly ]  [ Refresh ]  [ Compact ]  [ Close ]

The breakdown is a local estimate. Count exactly counts it with the token-count API, as /context does.

on('session.measure', async ($, e, next) => {
  await update($, fill, () => e.context)
  if (e.changed.includes('context') && (await isPaneOpen($))) void loadDetails($, 'summary')
