Install

You need Claude Code with plugin support. These themes are tested on Claude Code 2.1.316: check yours with claude --version, and update with claude update.

The themes come in two packs, so install one or both:

• theme-pack: Sakura, Voltage, Royal, Crunch and Xody
• hacker-terminal: Hacker

In a Claude Code terminal session

Type these at the Claude Code prompt:

/plugin install theme-pack --marketplace CodySpooner/ClaudeCodeThemes
/plugin install hacker-terminal --marketplace CodySpooner/ClaudeCodeThemes

The first time, Claude Code asks to add the claude-code-themes marketplace: answer y. Then choose a scope: user installs the theme for all your projects.

From a shell

claude plugin install theme-pack --marketplace CodySpooner/ClaudeCodeThemes
claude plugin install hacker-terminal --marketplace CodySpooner/ClaudeCodeThemes

In the Claude desktop app

/plugin doesn't run in the desktop app. Instead:

1. Click + next to the prompt box, then Plugins.
2. Click Add marketplace and enter CodySpooner/ClaudeCodeThemes.
3. Click Add plugin for theme-pack, hacker-terminal or both.

Use a theme

1. Run /theme.
2. Pick Sakura, Voltage, Royal, Crunch, Xody or Hacker. They're listed with Claude Code's own themes.
3. Start typing. The theme's banner greets you until your first prompt, and its scene keeps animating above the prompt.

To go back to normal, run /theme and pick one of Claude Code's own themes. All the extras switch off with it.

Good to know

• Reduced motion: with reduced motion turned on in Claude Code's settings, the scenes hold still.
• Small windows: in a narrow window the banner shrinks to a one-line title. When there's no room above the prompt, the scene steps aside instead of crowding it.
• Desktop app: the theme-pack themes draw their own animated strip above the prompt (shown under each theme below). Hacker's rain is terminal only, and it also skips light themes. With the Desktop HUD, all six also get an activity bar.
• Fonts: the scenes use symbols such as ❀ ϟ ♛ ✦ and halfwidth katakana. A terminal font with wide symbol coverage, like Cascadia Code or JetBrains Mono, draws them best.

The themes

The pictures below are rendered from each theme's own drawing code, so the colours, banners and scenes are exactly what the theme draws. Each pair shows the screen when you start Claude Code (left, animated) and a session in progress (right).

Sakura

Red and white. Cherry petals drift across the strip on a breeze, under a red sun.

• Spinner words: Blooming, Drifting, Folding, Unfurling, Blossoming, Steeping

• Desktop app strip:

• Activity bar, with the Desktop HUD:

Voltage

Blue and yellow. Current pulses along the traces of a circuit board.

• Spinner words: Routing, Pulsing, Soldering, Charging, Arcing, Amplifying, Overclocking

• Desktop app strip:

• Activity bar, with the Desktop HUD:

Royal

Purple and gold. Gold sparkles twinkle over velvet, above a shimmering gold fringe.

• Desktop app strip:

• Activity bar, with the Desktop HUD:

Crunch

A Saturday-morning cereal look in deep purple, lavender, sky blue, magenta and gold. Cereal loops tumble into a wave of milk while a spoon swoops through.

Crunch also restyles the conversation: your prompts get a "✦ you" label, each reply opens with a gold "◎ claude" pill, and every turn ends with a decorated footer.

• Spinner words: Crunching, Pouring, Spooning, Sprinkling, Toasting, Frosting, Stirring the bowl

• Desktop app strip:

• Activity bar, with the Desktop HUD:

Xody

Red on black. Embers rise off a bed of glowing coals, cooling from gold to deep red as they climb, under a XODY banner.

• Spinner words: Vibing, Cooking, Shipping, Igniting, Forging, Stoking the fire

• Desktop app strip:

• Activity bar, with the Desktop HUD:

Hacker

Green on black. Matrix rain falls above the prompt, and an "ACCESS GRANTED" banner greets you until your first prompt. Hacker comes in its own pack, hacker-terminal.

• Activity bar, with the Desktop HUD:

Desktop HUD

desktop-hud is an optional extra for the Claude desktop app. It works with any theme, and each theme here gets its own look.

Install it the same way as the themes: click Add plugin for desktop-hud in the desktop app, or run this from a shell:

claude plugin install desktop-hud --marketplace CodySpooner/ClaudeCodeThemes

The activity bar

The bar sits above the prompt and shows what Claude is doing. It stays calm while Claude is idle, picks up while Claude works, and fires a burst on every tool call.
