RTL for Claude

RTL for Claude

Right-to-left languages that finally read right in Claude. Automatic RTL + the gorgeous Vazirmatn font. Zero setup.

License Chrome Firefox VS Code Privacy

English · فارسی · العربية · اردو


Claude writes brilliant answers — but in right-to-left languages they spill out left-aligned and tangled. RTL for Claude fixes that in one click, and stays out of your way everywhere else.

😖 Without it 😍 With it
RTL replies come out left-aligned and broken Every reply snaps right-to-left in a clean font
Your typing jumps around The compose box flips live as you type
Mixed code & English look messy Code stays code, English stays English

  • 🌍 Every RTL language — Persian, Arabic, Urdu, Kurdish, Pashto, Hebrew & more.
  • 🔤 Beautiful typography — the bundled Vazirmatn font, with tunable size & spacing.
  • ⌨️ Smart compose box — flips the moment you start typing.
  • 🧩 Never breaks code — code blocks, diffs and terminals stay left-to-right.
