Content

Early access. A mod is a complete Claude Code plugin built on function hooks (Anthropic's mods/ layout); it loads in Claude Code 2.1.259+ with CLAUDE_CODE_ENABLE_FUNCTION_HOOKS=1 and the $ API may still change between releases. Hooks module: hooks/webfetch-cache.ts. Options: ttlSeconds</code>, <code>maxEntries (set in user or managed settings pluginConfigs, or /config). Run claude plugin validate on the installed folder to see every event it hooks and every $ call it makes.

webfetch-cache

Short-circuits repeated WebFetch calls for the same URL + prompt within a session. On a cache hit the hook answers { result } itself without calling next (no network call); on a miss it awaits the real fetch, stores the tool's record and returns what came back.

Only the tool's own record (result) is cached, never core's ref: that number names the messages core produced for one specific call and must not be replayed on another.

Options

  ttlSeconds: number  how long an entry stays fresh (default 900)
  maxEntries: number  cache size (default 200)

Declared in .claude-plugin/plugin.json (userConfig). Set them in /config, in user settings (~/.claude/settings.json, not project settings), with --settings <file> or in managed settings:

json
{ "pluginConfigs": { "webfetch-cache": { "options": { } } } }

Install

sh
npx claude-code-templates@latest --mod productivity/webfetch-cache
CLAUDE_CODE_ENABLE_FUNCTION_HOOKS=1 claude

It is written to .claude/skills/webfetch-cache/, which Claude Code auto-loads as webfetch-cache@skills-dir. For one session with hot reload: CLAUDE_CODE_ENABLE_FUNCTION_HOOKS=1 claude --plugin-dir .claude/skills/webfetch-cache. claude plugin validate .claude/skills/webfetch-cache prints every event it hooks and every $ call it makes.

Early access. Mods need Claude Code 2.1.259+ with CLAUDE_CODE_ENABLE_FUNCTION_HOOKS=1; the $ API may change between releases. Typed against Anthropic's declarations: https://github.com/anthropics/claude-code/tree/main/mods
