Supercharge your
AI Agent Workflow
Discover the best plugins, extensions, and tools for Claude Code. Monitor context usage, track active tools, and optimize your token spend.
Featured Plugin: claude-hud
The plugin that shows you exactly what your AI agent is doing.
Why you need claude-hud
As Claude Code users rapidly grow, a common pain point emerges: lack of visibility. Users often don't know how much context they've consumed, which tools are currently active, or the progress of the agent's tasks. This leads to wasted tokens and failed tasks.
Context Usage Tracking
Monitor your token consumption in real-time to avoid hitting limits unexpectedly.
Active Tools Display
See exactly which tools (like grep, read_file, or bash) Claude is currently executing.
Agent Progress
Track the todo progress of your running agents to understand their current state.
$ npm install -g claude-hud
# Start your Claude Code session
$ claude
# In another terminal, run the HUD
$ claude-hud

Claude Code Workflow Tips
Optimize your agentic coding experience and save tokens.
Be Specific with Context
Instead of asking Claude to "fix the bug in the app," point it to specific files or directories. Use commands like claude -p src/components/Header.tsx to limit the context window and reduce token usage.
Leverage the Grep Tool
Claude Code is excellent at searching your codebase. Ask it to "find all instances where we use localStorage" before asking it to make a change. This helps the agent build a mental model of your code without reading every file.
Monitor Token Usage
Long-running sessions accumulate context. Use tools like claude-hud to keep an eye on your token count. If the context gets too large, start a new session with /clear or restart the CLI.
Review Changes Before Committing
Always review the diffs Claude proposes. Use the built-in review tools to ensure the AI hasn't hallucinated variables or removed necessary code. Trust, but verify.
