UserPromptSubmit

UserPromptSubmit is a hook for coding agents from severzemlya/hato. Its token cost is not measured, scanned A, original, MIT.

A prompt-submission hook that runs hato's command-line program before the agent sees a submitted prompt. A hook is an automatic command triggered by an event.

In plain words
What is it for?
Marking a hato-connected Claude Code session as active when the user submits a prompt.
Why use it?
It records that a Claude Code session is working as soon as a prompt is submitted, without manual status updates.

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 hato plugin — 2 skills, 4 hooks shipped together

One of 4 entries in hooks.json — they are configured in one file and arrive 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 severzemlya/hato
Claude Code
/plugin install hato

Or install hato, the plugin that ships this one along with the rest of its 2 skills, 4 hooks.

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 2d 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.
