Use when the user wants to switch behavioral modes for the session — adjusting communication style, output format, and problem-solving approach. Trigger for keywords like "mode", "switch mode", "brainstorm mode", "token-efficient", "deep-research mode", "implementation mode", "review mode", "orchestration mode", or any request to change how Claude responds for the remainder of the session.

# Mode Switching
|
|
|
|
## When to Use
|
|
|
|
- User wants to change response style for the session
|
|
- Switching between exploration and execution phases
|
|
- Optimizing for token efficiency during high-volume work
|
|
- Entering focused review or deep-research mode
|
|
|
|
## When NOT to Use
|
|
|
|
- One-off format requests ("give me a shorter answer") — just comply directly
|
|
- Switching tools or skills — modes affect style, not capabilities
|
|

## Available Modes
|
|
|
|
| Mode | Description | Best For |
|
|
|------|-------------|----------|
|
|
| `default` | Balanced responses, mix of explanation and code | General tasks |
|
|
| `brainstorm` | More questions, multiple alternatives, explore trade-offs | Design, ideation |
|
|
| `token-efficient` | Minimal explanations, code-only where possible | High-volume, cost savings |
|
|
| `deep-research` | Thorough analysis, citations, confidence levels | Investigation, audits |
|
|
| `implementation` | Jump straight to code, progress indicators | Executing plans |
|
|
| `review` | Look for issues first, severity levels, actionable feedback | Code review, QA |
|
|
| `orchestration` | Task breakdown, parallel execution, result aggregation | Complex parallel work |
|
|
|
|
## Mode Activation
|
|
|
|
Use natural language to switch modes for the session:
|
|
|
|
```
|
|
"switch to brainstorm mode" # Creative exploration
|
|
"use implementation mode" # Code-focused execution
|
|
"switch to token-efficient mode" # Compressed output
|
|
"back to default mode" # Reset
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
## Recommended Workflows
|
|
|
|
### Feature Development
|
|
|
|
```
|
|
brainstorm → implementation → review → default
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
### Bug Investigation
|
|
|
|
```
|
|
deep-research → implementation → default
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
### Cost-Conscious Session
|
|
|
|
```
|
|
token-efficient → [work on tasks] → default
|
|
```
|
|

## Mode Files
|
|
|
|
Mode definitions: `.claude/modes/`
|
|
|
|
Customize modes by editing these files. Each mode adjusts:
|
|
- Communication style and verbosity
|
|
- Output format preferences
|
|
- Problem-solving approach
|
|
- When to ask questions vs proceed
|
