Frequently Asked Questions about Writing Hookify Rules

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

FAQPage Schema
How do I write custom regex patterns for automated code review rules?

Automated code review rules use regex patterns and frontmatter syntax to define specific triggers and warning messages. This allows you to enforce coding standards automatically during development.

What is the frontmatter structure for a hookify rule file?

A hookify rule file uses frontmatter structure to define event triggers, regex patterns, and custom messages. This configuration drives the automated code review process and enforces quality standards.

How do I organize and name rule files in the .Codex directory?

Rule files are organized in the .Codex directory with proper naming conventions to ensure hookify triggers execute correctly. This organization supports automated development processes and consistent code reviews.

Can I create a hookify rule to warn against using console.log in production code?

Yes, creating a hookify rule to warn against console.log involves defining a specific regex pattern and event trigger in the frontmatter. This automatically flags the statement during code reviews to enforce production standards.

When do I need to configure custom event triggers for code review automation?

Custom event triggers are needed when enforcing coding standards at specific development stages. Hookify rules use these triggers to dynamically apply regex patterns and execute automated code reviews.
