UserPromptExpansion

UserPromptExpansion is a hook for coding agents from slbug/claude-ruby-grape-rails. Its token cost is not measured, scanned A, original, MIT.

A prompt-processing hook that runs a Ruby script before the agent sees your request. The script observes skill discovery and expands the prompt.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to observe and expand user prompts before they reach the agent.
Why use it?
It can add context before work begins, so the agent has more information when deciding which skills may be relevant.

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

One of 17 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 slbug/claude-ruby-grape-rails
Claude Code
/plugin install ruby-grape-rails

Or install ruby-grape-rails, the plugin that ships this one along with the rest of its 52 skills, 19 agents, 17 hooks.

Security

Grade A, and why

UserPromptExpansion 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 5d 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.
