Git hooks management with Lefthook. Use when writing or reviewing git hook configuration for Go projects, polyglot repos, or any project where Node.js is not already in the toolchain. Also trigger on mentions of 'lefthook', 'lefthook.yml', 'lefthook install', parallel git hooks, or when the user asks which git hooks tool to use (husky vs lefthook). For Node.js/Bun projects that already have a JS runtime, see the husky skill instead.
Install Lefthook and run lefthook install in your project to enable fast, parallel git hooks.

Git hooks in a polyglot monorepo can be managed using a single-binary tool like Lefthook. It provides declarative YAML configuration for hooks and supports root-dir execution, eliminating the need for a Node.js runtime in your toolchain.
Running pre-commit hooks in parallel across multiple languages is handled natively by Lefthook. It uses declarative YAML definitions to execute jobs concurrently, supporting Go, Python, Ruby, and mixed-language repositories by default.
Lefthook works with Go projects by integrating go vet and lint tools directly into its hook definitions. It allows you to run these checks across multiple modules in parallel before commits are finalized.
Local overrides for git hooks in a monorepo are supported through Lefthook's declarative YAML configuration. You can define root-directory support and apply tag filters to customize hook execution for specific project segments.
Choose Lefthook over Husky when your project does not already include a Node.js or Bun runtime. Lefthook offers a fast, language-agnostic, single-binary alternative, whereas Husky is suited for JavaScript-based workflows.
A single binary can handle git hooks for Ruby and Python repositories using Lefthook. It provides language-agnostic tooling that runs format, vet, and lint scripts in parallel without requiring language-specific hook managers.
