It records the cost of completed shell-command work, giving the security workflow a way to track resource use.

Hook for Claude Code

Written for Claude Code: installed under .claude/.

This is H-mmer/pentest-agents's own configuration. It tells Claude Code how to work on pentest-agents itself, so it is not a mod to install elsewhere. Copy it as a starting point and replace the rules that are about this project. Everything pentest-agents configures →

One of 6 entries in settings.json upstream. Installing this one merges just its entry into your config; the other 5 are separate, each on its own page.

Security

Grade A, and why

PostToolUse scanned grade A with 1 finding 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 1mo 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.

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.
