SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

💡 This Skill includes scripts (resource) components.

What problem does it solve?

This Skill provides a robust framework for enforcing critical rules and guardrails for AI coding agents, ensuring code quality, security, and auditability that cannot be bypassed by the agent's instructions alone.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • Lifecycle Hooks: Define and execute automated checks at various stages of an agent's lifecycle (e.g., before tool use, after tool use).
  • Enforcement Mechanisms: Block agent progress when predefined checks fail, ensuring compliance with essential requirements.
  • Use Case: Automatically run linters, tests, and security scans before any code commit is finalized, preventing vulnerable or broken code from entering the repository.

Quick Start

Configure the hooks section in your .claude/settings.json to define pre-commit quality enforcement.

Frequently Asked Questions about hooks-and-enforcement

High-intent search queries and answers about installing and using this skill.

FAQPage Schema
How do I enforce guardrails on AI coding agents to prevent bad commits?▼

Lifecycle hooks enforce guardrails by intercepting an AI coding agent's workflow at specific stages, like before or after tool use, blocking progress if mandatory security and quality requirements are not met.

How do I configure pre-commit checks to block AI agents from committing broken code?▼

Configure pre-commit checks by defining automated linters, tests, and security scans in the hooks section of your .claude/settings.json file, which blocks the agent from finalizing the commit if checks fail.

Can I protect immutable test files from being modified by AI coding agents?▼

Yes, you can protect immutable test files by configuring lifecycle hooks to enforce file protection rules, blocking the AI coding agent's progress if it attempts to alter restricted files.

How do I set up an audit trail for AI coding agent actions and tool use?▼

Set up an audit trail by configuring lifecycle hooks in settings.json to log agent actions and tool use, ensuring all automated code modifications are recorded for compliance and auditability.

Do I need external dependencies to run security scanning and audit logging with lifecycle hooks?▼

No external dependencies are required, as the Skill operates independently using scripts to manage guardrails, audit trail logging, and security scanning through the settings.json configuration.

What's the best way to ensure AI-generated code meets security requirements before entering the repository?▼

The best way to ensure AI-generated code meets security requirements is to configure automated security scanning within pre-commit lifecycle hooks, blocking vulnerable code from entering the repository on failure.
