+### The mod
+
+Since 0.19.0 the plugin carries a hooks module — what Claude Code calls a
+mod — in `hooks/hooks.json`, `hooks/register.tsx` and `types/index.d.ts`.
+It draws the workspace in the session, from `rness status --json` run by
+the pinned copy, and computes nothing itself:
+
+- **A band above the prompt**, whenever a note needs action (a pin the
+  installed copy does not match, problems `validate` would report): those
+  notes. The banner is not repeated there; the session-start line says it
+  once, in the transcript.
+- **The status line**: `<scope> · <n> in progress`, with `⚠ <n>` when
+  there are notes. Claude Code draws it after the plugin's name:
+  `⚠ rness: web · 1 in progress` (2.1.289).
+- **`/rness:status [tab]` as a pane** beside the conversation, a tab per
+  collection, a row per document; no model turn. The pane takes the
+  keyboard as it opens: a tab's digit (written before its name), or Tab
+  then Enter, shows that tab; ↑/↓, `PgUp`/`PgDn`, `Home`/`End` scroll, as
+  in the full-screen `rness status`; Esc and `q` close it, and so does Esc
+  at an empty prompt once the prompt has the keys back. A pane has no
+  ←/→ in Claude Code 2.1.289. In `claude -p`, or where no pane can be
+  placed, the skill's tables answer instead.
+
+It reads the snapshot again at session start, after an `Edit` or `Write`
+of a file under `.rness/`, and at the end of each turn, off the turn's
+path. The module runs the pinned copy at the one path `sync` writes into it
+for its place (`.rness` at the root, `../../.rness` in a clone), as the
+settings hooks do: never a copy a clone's own tree could hold. It loads
+where the plugin loads — a trusted folder, `claude -p` included — on a
+Claude Code that has mods: run by 2.1.280 and later, ignored without an
+error by 2.1.240 and 2.1.199, where the skills work as before (verified on
+2026-10-04). An older Claude Code is told so once per version and machine,
+in the session-start line: `rness: Claude Code 2.1.240 shows no rness band,
+status line or pane; 2.1.280 or later does — claude update`. The version
+comes from `AI_AGENT`, which Claude Code sets (2.1.240 does); one that does
+not set it, or not in that form, is told nothing. The versions told are kept
+in `claude-code.json` beside the login (`~/.config/rness/` by default). Not in
+`claude -p` or another SDK session, where nobody would read it; not after a
+compaction. Versions between 2.1.240 and 2.1.280 were not tried: one of
+them that loads mods is told to update for nothing. Mods are early access
+in Claude Code: a release that changes their API may stop the band or the
+pane until the next rness release; the skills and the settings hooks do not
+depend on it.
+
+To work on it, from `org/rness`: `pnpm check:mod` runs
+`claude plugin validate` and `claude plugin test` on `packages/cli/mod`
+(Claude Code needed, so not in CI); `tsc -p packages/cli/mod` type-checks it
+once a `claude --plugin-dir packages/cli/mod` session has laid Claude
+Code's types there.
