What it does
lot-map shows Claude Code at work in a pane beside the chat. Every tool call, model step, hook and skill sends a pulse from the centre to its station: memory, files, shell, network, browser, agents, skills and hooks. Instead of a command list you see where the work goes. A route line joins the latest stations, and spokes grow thicker with use. Clock hands grow around a station while a call runs. Background tasks and subagents stay lit until they finish, and errors and hook refusals turn red. The ring in the centre fills with the context window and turns amber at 70% and red at 90%. Below sit the current action and the last 16 log rows.
Who it is for. Developers running long Claude Code sessions with subagents who want to see what the agent is doing without reading a command feed.
Good fit when
- A long session runs and it is unclear whether the agent works in files, on the network or in the shell.
- Subagents work in parallel and each one’s activity matters.
- The context window is filling and an early signal is wanted before compaction.
- A hook refused a call and the reason should be visible at once.
Not a fit when
- The terminal is narrower than 144 columns and the text fallback is not enough.
- A log for incident review is needed, while the map only shows the present.
- Claude Code is older than the version the mod was tested on.
Example request
/lot-map — open the map and show which stations are busy in this session and how full the context window is.Limitations
The mod was built and tested on Claude Code 2.1.321 on macOS, and users report Windows works too. In a terminal the pane opens by itself from 144 columns and draws text only, otherwise call `/lot-map`. Shell commands go by the command name, so a script that opens a connection itself, such as `python -c`, shows as Shell. Updating takes two commands and a new session afterwards. The mod makes no network calls.
How to disable. Remove the mod with `claude plugin uninstall lot-map@lot-map` and start a new session.
FAQ
How do I install lot-map?
In a Claude Code terminal: `/plugin install lot-map --marketplace alexeyw/lot-map`, answer `y` to adding the marketplace and pick a scope. From a shell use `claude plugin install lot-map --marketplace alexeyw/lot-map`.
Why did the pane not open?
In a terminal it needs at least 144 columns. With less width type `/lot-map` by hand.
Which language does the map use?
The `language` option takes `en`, `ru`, `es`, `fr`, `de` and `it`. The centre label is set with `coreName`.
How do I tie my own memory to the Memory station?
List MCP servers in `memoryServers`, commands in `memoryCommands` or path fragments in `memoryPaths`. Options change through `/config` or `claude plugin configure`.
How do I update the mod?
Run `claude plugin marketplace update lot-map`, then `claude plugin update lot-map@lot-map` and start a new session.
