BeforeModel

BeforeModel is a hook for Claude Code from galdawave/pickle-rick-extension. Its token cost is not measured, scanned A, original, Apache-2.0.

A hook that runs before the agent produces a response. It executes a Node.js script to check whether an iteration or time limit has been reached.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it for BeforeModel checks that enforce iteration or time limits in the referenced extension.
Why use it?
It can stop or control work when the configured limit is exhausted, preventing the agent from continuing beyond the allowed run.

Hook for Claude Code

Written for Claude Code: a Claude Code hooks.json.

One of 3 entries in hooks.json — they are configured in one file and arrive together.

Security

Grade A, and why

BeforeModel 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 6d 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.

This page is one entry in a file that holds 3. Installing the file brings all of them; each is measured and scanned on its own page.

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.
