night-mode

Between 01:00 and 05:00, Claude Code gets more careful.

  • Claude's system prompt gets a short section: it's late, double-check anything destructive, prefer reversible steps, summarise the risks before acting.
  • Risky Bash commands stop and ask you first: It's 2:41am. Run this prod deploy (wrangler deploy)? That covers deploys (wrangler deploy, vercel --prod, fly deploy), kubectl apply, terraform apply, git push --force, rm -rf, npm publish and DROP/TRUNCATE in SQL. If nobody can answer (claude -p) or you pick "Not tonight", the command is held with: it's 2:41am. if you're sure, run it yourself or reply 'yes, ship it'.
  • Reply yes, ship it and risky commands run without asking for 10 minutes.
  • The status line shows 🌙 night mode until 05:00 while it's on.
  • /night off turns it off for the rest of the session. /night on brings it back, and /night says where things stand.

Install

claude --plugin-dir /path/to/claude-mods/night-mode

Or add the repo as a marketplace and install it with /plugin.

Options

OptionDefaultWhat it does
start01:00local time night mode turns on
end05:00local time it turns off (a window can wrap past midnight, e.g. 23:00 to 06:00)
timezoneemptyan IANA zone like Asia/Kolkata; empty uses $TZ, then the machine's clock

How it works

A prompt.compose hook appends a session-scoped section at night, a tool.call hook on Bash classifies the command and confirms it through $.ui.ask, which works in every permission mode, and a $.clock.every timer keeps the status line current.
