all software is becoming malleable, so it was important for us to support this as a first class citizen in Claude Code, I hope more and more software becomes extensible like this!
here are some of what I'm most excited about with mods:
You can now mod Claude Code:
- Change how it behaves
- Customize the UI
- Swap in your own features
Write one with a few lines of TypeScript, or have Claude build it for you. Mods ship inside plugins, so you install them with /plugin in the CLI or desktop app.
A few examples:
144
111
2,806
365,583
This mod doesn’t work in Claude desktop. Are mods coming to desktop?
