Claude Mods: The first implementation of an attention interface, a human-programmable agent interaction layer

Claude Mods is Anthropic’s programmable plugin system for Claude Code, representing an early form of the “Attention Interface”—it shifts the traditional machine-oriented agent harness toward a customizable interaction layer centered on human attention. Users can write Mods in TypeScript/JS or have Claude generate them automatically using natural language, thereby determining when to be interrupted, what content to see, and what decisions to make.

Claude Mods: A programmable attention interface that reshapes the collaboration paradigm between humans and AI agents

Claude Mods is a programmable plugin system for developers launched by Anthropic, marking a shift of the ‘agent harness’ from a machine-side interface to a human-side interface—namely, the ‘Attention Interface’. It enables users to customize Claude Code’s behavior, rendering, and interaction logic via TypeScript/JavaScript, thereby facilitating co-design workflows between humans and AI. This mechanism has already been applied to built-in features (such as You Should Know) and supports users in building plugins themselves or having them generated with Claude’s assistance.
