What problem does it solve?

This Skill assists in the implementation and management of Claude Code plugin hooks, allowing users to create advanced automation within their workflows.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • Advanced Automation: Build and execute event-driven automation scripts that react to Claude Code events.
  • Validation and Enforcement: Implement validation and enforcement logic for operations, policies, and security.
  • Use Case: Develop a comprehensive hook to manage user inputs, enforce policies, and validate operations in Claude Code plugins.

Quick Start

To validate tool use before execution, run the hook for the "Write" tool by typing:

use hook-development validate tool-use --matcher Write

FAQPage Schema
How do I implement event-driven automation with Claude Code plugin hooks?

Event-driven automation is implemented using Claude Code plugin hooks configured in hooks.json, allowing scripts to execute logic based on specific event types like PreToolUse, PostToolUse, Stop, UserPromptSubmit, and SessionStart.

What Claude Code hook events are available for validating operations?

Claude Code hook events available for validating operations include PreToolUse, PostToolUse, Stop, UserPromptSubmit, and SessionStart, which support prompt-based or command-based logic for enforcing policies.

How do I validate tool use before execution in Claude Code?

To validate tool use before execution, run the hook-development skill with the validate tool-use command and specify a matcher, such as the Write tool, to intercept and enforce validation logic prior to the operation.

Can I enforce security policies using Claude Code hooks?

Yes, you can enforce security policies by implementing validation and enforcement logic within Claude Code plugin hooks to manage user inputs, validate operations, and restrict actions based on predefined rules.

Do I need a specific configuration file to set up Claude Code plugin hooks?

Yes, setting up Claude Code plugin hooks requires configuration in a hooks.json file where you define event types and link them to the corresponding prompt-based or command-based implementation scripts.

What is the difference between prompt-based and command-based hook logic in Claude Code?

Claude Code hooks support implementation using either prompt-based or command-based logic, allowing you to choose between executing natural language prompts or running direct system commands for event-driven automation.
