hooks-manager

What problem does it solve?

This skill enables Claude to define and manage event-driven hooks, allowing for automated actions before or after specific events (e.g., tool use, user prompts). It provides a flexible way to extend AI behavior and integrate with external systems.

Core Features & Use Cases

• Event-Driven Automation: Triggers custom scripts or actions based on predefined events (e.g., pretooluse, posttooluse), enhancing dynamic behavior.
• Configuration Guide: Provides detailed instructions for setting up and configuring various types of hooks, simplifying implementation.
• Mailbox Patterns: Guides on using mailboxes for asynchronous communication between hooks and other components, improving system responsiveness.
• Use Case: Automatically log all tool invocations to an external monitoring system (posttooluse hook), or validate user input before processing (userpromptsubmit hook), ensuring compliance and data integrity.

Quick Start

Use the hooks-manager skill to create a 'posttooluse' hook that logs the tool name and its output to a file.
