Claude Code Mods Tackle Cache, Context

cjavdev’s open-source Claude Code mods add a cache-expiry countdown, context-window meter, and idle-session summarizer. The tools expose hidden cost and context signals directly in the terminal UI.

// ANALYSIS

These are small but genuinely practical developer-experience improvements for long Claude Code sessions.

–Cache-shot-clock makes prompt-cache TTL visible, helping developers avoid expensive cold rewrites.
–Context-meter turns impending compaction into something developers can anticipate and manage.
–Cache-saver offers a cheaper resume path, though summaries may lose subtle session details.
–The mods require Claude Code 2.1.287+ and depend on an early-access function-hooks API.
–Their value is highest for large, long-running agent sessions where cache misses and context loss are costly.
