git-guardrails-claude-code

You can block dangerous git commands in Claude Code by installing a PreToolUse hook script that intercepts and prevents destructive operations like git push or git reset --hard before they execute. This skill provides the bundled script and setup guidance to enable this interception.

Destructive git operations that should be blocked include git push, git reset --hard, git clean, and git branch -D. The provided hook script evaluates a guarded command mask list at runtime to intercept these specific dangerous patterns.

Yes, you can configure git guardrails globally for all projects or limit the scope to a single repository. The skill provides step-by-step guidance to copy the bundled hook script to the appropriate Claude Code hooks location for your chosen scope.

Yes, you need jq installed to run the git command blocking hook. The PreToolUse hook script relies on jq as a dependency to evaluate the guarded command mask list and process runtime interception logic.

You can customize which git commands are blocked by modifying the guarded command mask list within the bundled hook script. This safety-first design allows predictable behavior and easy adjustment of blocked patterns to suit your specific repository requirements.
