.claude/settings.json

PreToolUse is a hook for Claude Code from Smart-AI-Memory/attune-ai. Its token cost is not measured, scanned A, original, Apache-2.0.

A group of checks that run before shell commands or file edits, including security and workspace-path checks.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to guard Bash, Edit, and Write operations with the checks described in the hook configuration.
Why use it?
It can catch unsafe commands, invalid paths, or switching problems before an action changes or inspects the project.

Hook for Claude Code

Written for Claude Code: $CLAUDE_PROJECT_DIR variable.

This is Smart-AI-Memory/attune-ai's own configuration. It tells Claude Code how to work on attune-ai 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 attune-ai configures →

One of 5 entries in settings.json upstream. Installing this one merges just its entry into your config; the other 4 are separate, each on its own page.

Reuse

Borrowing it

Nothing to install: this file belongs to Smart-AI-Memory/attune-ai. Take a copy, put it at the same path in your own repository, and replace the rules that are about this project with yours.

Security

Grade A, and why

PreToolUse 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.

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.
