MessageDisplay

MessageDisplay is a hook for coding agents from abullard1/claude-bionify. Its token cost is not measured, scanned A, original, MIT.

A message-display hook that runs a Python script when a message is shown. It defines two command options: python3 and the Windows-style py -3 command.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to run the bundled bionify.py script from the Claude plugin whenever a message is displayed.
Why use it?
It automates a script action at message-display time, so the behavior does not need to be triggered manually.

Hook

Runs only inside its plugin — its command needs a path that Claude Code sets for a plugin’s own hooks and for nothing else. Install the plugin, not this.

Part of the claude-bionify plugin — 1 skill, 6 commands, 1 hook shipped together

Install

Getting it into your agent

This one installs as part of its plugin. Adding the marketplace and installing the plugin brings it with everything else the plugin ships.

Claude Code
/plugin marketplace add abullard1/claude-bionify
Claude Code
/plugin install claude-bionify

Or install claude-bionify, the plugin that ships this one along with the rest of its 1 skill, 6 commands, 1 hook.

Security

Grade A, and why

MessageDisplay scanned grade A with 0 findings against 26 rules in 11 categories — prompt injection, anti-refusal, data exfiltration, privilege escalation, supply chain, agent snooping, system-prompt leakage, SSRF and excessive agency — measured 3d ago.

A static scan of the commands this hook runs, not an audit. A hook is shell that executes on your machine at the event it names, which is why every command in it is printed with what was found.

Nothing flagged

None of the 26 patterns this scan looks for appear in this file: no shell pipes, no recursive deletes, no credential paths, no hidden text, no instruction-override or anti-refusal phrasing, no agent-config snooping. That is not a guarantee, it is the absence of the things that are checkable.

What this file has done since we first saw it

Hashed on every crawl. A supply-chain change to an agent config is a question of when, not whether, so the history is kept rather than the latest state alone.
