Use when the user says "godmode", "god mode", "/godmode", or wants max-capability mode for the session. Turns on exhaustive, best-tool-first behavior: map and use the BEST skill/plugin/MCP/agent, prefer Workflow/subagents for substantial work, verify before claiming done, and keep changes small and reversible. A UserPromptSubmit hook keeps it active every turn until "godmode off".

How matches are found. Word for word: the exact same text. Edited: shares passages with this file (“99% same” means 99% of its five-word phrases also appear here; 10% or more counts). Their own version: similar meaning, or, weakest, the same name. We can’t tell which project had it first. Projects are counted among the 200 most-starred candidates, and mentions are links to the repository we found, up to 50 per site, so both counts are a floor.

godmode: max-capability mode
Trigger: user says godmode / god mode / /godmode. Turn off with godmode off (or stop/disable together with godmode).
GODMODE means run every task at full power. This skill is the on-demand ritual; the godmode-tracker.js UserPromptSubmit hook keeps the directive in context on EVERY turn while active (flag file ~/.claude/.godmode-active), so it survives long sessions and does not drift.
What GODMODE means (apply on every task while active)
- Best tool, not first. Before acting, map ALL relevant capabilities (Skill tool, plugins, MCP connectors including deferred via ToolSearch, Agent, Workflow) and use the BEST fit, not the first that works. Announce the choice. (This is the best-tool ritual.)
- Exhaustive over fast. Optimize for the most correct and complete answer, not the cheapest. For substantial or fan-out work, prefer Workflow/subagents and adversarial verification.
- Discipline stays on. VERIFY before saying done/works/fixed; leave evidence; never claim without a check.
- Recovery-first. Keep changes small, visible, reversible. Escalate sensitive or irreversible surfaces (production, secrets, data, payments, auth).
- Persist context. On finishing substantial work, save your context (notes, decisions, next steps) so the next session can continue without re-deriving everything.
How it stays on
- Toggle plus per-turn reinforcement live in
~/.claude/hooks/godmode-tracker.js, registered in settings.json under UserPromptSubmit. - The hook writes or removes
~/.claude/.godmode-activeand, while active, injects the GODMODE directive each turn. - Saying
godmode offremoves the flag and stops the injection.
