Key points

  • Claude Code mods enable custom panels, voice interactions, and real-time stats via embedded TypeScript programs
  • Anthropic released mods on October 1, 2026, requiring terminal version 2.1.287 or later
  • Users must validate mods manually due to no sandbox, with full system permissions granted

Use cases include workflow automation for developers, daily planning for office workers, and hands-free voice requests for content creators.
