Hook Development Suite

About

This skill provides comprehensive guidance for building robust automation workflows using Claude Code's hook system. It covers both deterministic bash-based command hooks and sophisticated LLM-driven prompt hooks, enabling developers to validate tool usage, enforce security policies, manage project context during session starts, and automate quality checks before task completion. By standardizing implementation patterns for events like PreToolUse and Stop, it helps developers build safer, more efficient, and context-aware plugin architectures that integrate seamlessly with the Claude Code development lifecycle.

Key Features

• Prompt-based validation for context-aware reasoning and decision making
• Comprehensive support for the full hook lifecycle including PreToolUse, PostToolUse, and Stop
• Command-based hooks for deterministic bash scripting and tool integration
• 1 GitHub stars
• Standardized configuration templates for both plugin-level and user-level settings
• Advanced security patterns for path traversal protection and input validation

Use Cases

• Implementing custom security guardrails to block dangerous terminal commands and sensitive file access
• Automating environment setup and project context loading at the start of every coding session
• Creating validation logic to ensure code changes meet quality standards before the AI agent finishes a task
