UserPromptSubmit

UserPromptSubmit is a hook for Claude Code from pchalasani/claude-code-tools. Its token cost is not measured, scanned A, original, MIT.

A hook that runs a shell command whenever a user submits a prompt, before the coding agent processes it. It runs a script when that script is available and otherwise returns an empty result.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to trigger `share_hook.py` before prompt processing when the script is installed.
Why use it?
It provides a fixed point for performing an action at the start of every prompt. The supplied description does not explain what the script itself does.

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.

Part of the agent-tunnel plugin — 1 hook shipped together

Good fit Use it to trigger share_hook.py before prompt processing when the script is installed.

Security

Grade A, and why

UserPromptSubmit 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 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.

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.
