PreToolUse

PreToolUse is a hook for Claude Code from geniro-io/geniro-claude-harness. Its token cost is not measured, scanned A, a copy of SessionStart, Apache-2.0.

A pre-tool hook that runs two shell checks before an AI agent uses Bash, a tool for running command-line instructions. The checks block force-pushes and commits containing secrets.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it before Bash commands in Claude Code when you want automatic protection against force-pushing or committing secrets.
Why use it?
It helps prevent two risky actions: overwriting shared Git history and accidentally storing credentials or other sensitive values in the repository.

Hook for Claude Code

Written for Claude Code: ${CLAUDE_PLUGIN_ROOT} variable.

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.

Security

Grade A, and why

PreToolUse 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 9d 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.

Origin

This is a copy

66% identical to SessionStart — 12 lines differ, which has more behind it and is treated as the original. This page carries a canonical link to it rather than competing with it.

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.
