What is a Claude Mod?
A mod is a Claude Code plugin whose hooks are TypeScript functions running inside Claude Code’s own process. Instead of a shell command that fires on an event, a mod registers a function for the event and gets a $ object to draw above the prompt, open panes, read the session, intercept tool calls, or change what the interface shows. Anthropic calls the mechanism function hooks and the product Claude Mods; the proposal and the discussion live in anthropics/claude-code#91870.
Mods are early access. They load only when CLAUDE_CODE_ENABLE_FUNCTION_HOOKS=1 is set, need Claude Code 2.1.269 or later for anything that draws above the prompt, and the API may change between releases. See the install guide.
Who publishes this catalog
The Claude Mods editorial team maintains the directory and guides. Repository authors are credited on their individual listings; they do not author or endorse our editorial rankings. Corrections and listing requests can be sent to hello@claudemods.ai.
What this catalog lists
Only mods. A listing must be a plugin with a hooks/hooks.json that names a modules entry and a module that exports register. Shell-hook plugins, skills, MCP servers and prompt packs are great, but they are not mods and they are not here.
How we verify a mod
Every submission is reviewed by a person. A verified badge means a maintainer opened the repository and confirmed it is a function-hook mod; a community listed badge means the listing came from a scanner or a third-party list and has not been double-checked yet. Verification checks that a project fits this catalog; it is not a security audit or a promise that it works on every version. Category artwork is illustrative, not a screenshot of a mod. Either way, read the code before you install anything: a mod runs with the permissions of your session.
Mod of the day
Every mod has a vote button. You can vote once per mod per day (UTC). At 00:00 UTC the mod with the most votes becomes the mod of the day and gets the hero spot on the home page for 24 hours. Ties go to the mod that received its first vote of the day earlier. A mod that has just won sits out the crown for the next seven days (it still collects votes), so the catalog keeps rotating.
Won a day? Put the badge in your README: [](https://claudemods.ai/mods/your-slug). Every listed mod has one. Votes are deduplicated by a random cookie and your network address, hashed with a secret; we never store the address itself. Obvious ballot stuffing gets voided.
Not affiliated
claudemods.ai is a community project. It is not affiliated with, endorsed by, or sponsored by Anthropic. “Claude”, “Claude Code” and “Claude Mods” are names Anthropic uses for its products and this feature; we use them only to say what the catalog is about, the way a fan site names the thing it is a fan of. Mod names and repositories belong to their authors. If Anthropic asks us to change the site’s name, we will.
Lookalikes that are not mods
Search for a mod’s name and you may land on a plugin with the same name that uses classic shell hooks and a tmux split rather than function hooks. They can be great; they are not mods, and they are not listed here. Known cases: YonasValentin/cc-arcade (not sezaakgun’s), davidfant/claude-dino, nesteazy-rishabh/claude-arcade, kaboom.claude. Every listing here is keyed by the repository owner, so check the author before you install.
Contact and takedowns
Wrong information on a listing, a mod you maintain that you want changed or removed, a name or trademark concern, or a vote that looks rigged: email hello@claudemods.ai and we will act within two business days. Authors can also open an issue on the catalog repository once it is public.
