Do I need to restart my session after updating hooks?

Yes, most hook registrations in the settings.json file require a new session to take effect properly.

Can these hooks integrate with external APIs?

Yes, the templates include patterns for External Integrators that can communicate with MCP servers, HTTP APIs, or WebSockets during any hook event.

How do I block a dangerous command using this skill?

Use the Gate Pattern within a PreToolUse hook. By returning exit code 2, the hook blocks the command and sends a specific error message back to Claude.

What are Claude Code hooks?

Hooks are specialized scripts triggered by Claude Code lifecycle events, such as before a tool is used or after a session starts, allowing for custom automation and validation.

What is the benefit of the State Manager role?
