PostToolUse

PostToolUse is a hook for Claude Code from spencermarx/open-code-review. Its token cost is not measured, scanned A, original, Apache-2.0.

A post-edit hook that runs a Node.js script after files are written or edited.

In plain words
What is it for?
It is for triggering a repository helper after Write, Edit, or MultiEdit operations.
Why use it?
It can automate checks or follow-up work immediately after code changes, so those actions do not depend on remembering to run them manually.

One of 9 entries in settings.json — they are configured in one file and arrive together.

Security

Grade A, and why

PostToolUse 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 yesterday.

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.
