FAQPage Schema
How do I create custom rules to detect and prevent specific code patterns in real-time?

You can create custom Hookify rules using YAML for definition and regex for pattern matching to monitor and correct code patterns in real-time. This allows you to detect specific code issues and provide actionable feedback automatically.

What are Hookify rules and how do they enhance code quality and safety?

Hookify rules are custom definitions that monitor code patterns in real-time to enhance code quality and security. They use regex pattern matching and conditional logic to detect potential issues and trigger corrective messages based on specific events.

Can I trigger code safety rules based on specific events like file edits or bash commands?

Yes, Hookify rules support event-based triggering, allowing you to execute rules on various events such as file edits, bash commands, or prompts. This ensures code pattern monitoring and correction happens precisely when needed in your workflow.

Do I need to know regex and YAML to set up custom code pattern monitoring rules?

Yes, setting up Hookify rules requires YAML for rule definition and regex for pattern matching. You also use Markdown to customize messages, ensuring you can configure complex conditional logic and provide actionable feedback for code safety.

What is the best way to warn developers against using console.log statements in production code?

The best way is to develop a custom Hookify rule that targets the console.log statement using regex pattern matching. This monitors code in real-time and triggers a customized Markdown message providing actionable feedback whenever the pattern is detected.
