SessionStart

SessionStart is a hook for Claude Code from slbug/claude-ruby-grape-rails. Its token cost is not measured, scanned A, a copy of SessionStart, MIT.

A set of automatic startup and resume checks for a coding-agent session. It loads project rules, prepares folders, updates the status line, detects the Ruby runtime, checks compression data, and checks saved work and plugin versions.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it when starting or resuming Ruby projects that need runtime detection, directory setup, saved-session checks, status-line setup, and project rules loaded automatically.
Why use it?
It prepares the session and restores useful project context without requiring these checks to be run manually.

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 ruby-grape-rails plugin — 52 skills, 19 agents, 17 hooks shipped together

One of 17 entries in hooks.json upstream. Installing this one merges just its entry into your config; the other 16 are separate, each on its own page.

Good fit Use it when starting or resuming Ruby projects that need runtime detection, directory setup, saved-session checks, status-line setup, and project rules loaded automatically.

Security

Grade A, and why

SessionStart 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 15d 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

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.
