Claudish-to-English Makes Claude Code Readable

claudish-to-english is a Claude Code plugin that uses a local Ollama model to rewrite verbose assistant messages into plain English. It changes only the displayed output, preserving Claude’s reasoning, actions, and original transcript.

// ANALYSIS

This is a clever UX patch for a real frustration, though it adds latency and another model layer to the workflow.

  • Runs locally, keeping potentially sensitive code context on the machine
  • Uses Claude Code’s MessageDisplay hook to transform output after generation
  • Fail-open behavior preserves the original response if Ollama is unavailable
  • Optional Markdown rewriting extends the tool beyond terminal conversations
  • Developers could often achieve similar brevity with better prompting, but automation makes the preference consistent
