PreToolUse

PreToolUse is a hook for Claude Code from sunghyun-k/claude-swift-plugins. Its token cost is not measured, scanned A, a copy of SessionStart, MIT.

A pre-tool hook that runs a script before the agent uses WebFetch, the tool for retrieving web pages. The script rewrites Apple URLs first.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it in Claude Code when WebFetch requests may contain Apple URLs that need rewriting.
Why use it?
It ensures Apple links are transformed before the web-fetching tool receives them.

Hook for Claude Code

Written for Claude Code: ${CLAUDE_PLUGIN_ROOT} variable.

Runs only inside a plugin — its command needs a path that Claude Code sets for a plugin’s own hooks and for nothing else, and the catalogue could not identify which plugin ships it.

Good fit Use it in Claude Code when WebFetch requests may contain Apple URLs that need rewriting.

Getting it into your agent

There is no command for this one: it runs only inside a plugin, and the catalogue could not identify which plugin ships it. The source is linked below.

Made for: Claude Code.

Its marketplace also offers this one on its own, as the plugin apple-docs-json/plugin install apple-docs-json after adding the marketplace above.

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 8d 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

70% identical to SessionStart — 8 lines differ, which has more behind it and is treated as the original. This page carries a canonical link to it rather than competing with it.

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.
