Show HN: Claude Mods – Minesweeper

Category: devtools

Tags: claude-code, plugin, games, terminal-ui, typescript

Score: 6.5/10 (Innovation: 7, Technical: 7, Documentation: 8, Utility: 4)

Arcade is a collection of classic desktop games (Minesweeper, brick breaker, Doom) packaged as Claude Code mods that render in a side pane while Claude works. It cleverly exploits Claude Code's plugin/pane architecture to run games inside the AI coding assistant, with strict TypeScript, terminal graphics handling, and careful isolation of game state from model context. Interesting as a novel use of the mod system rather than for the games themselves.

Target audience: Claude Code users and terminal enthusiasts
