UserPromptSubmit

UserPromptSubmit is a hook for Claude Code from vectorize-io/hindsight. Its token cost is not measured, scanned A, original, MIT.

A before-prompt automation that runs a Python script whenever you submit a message to the coding agent.

In plain words
What is it for?
Running Hindsight's recall script before each prompt so earlier project or user context can be loaded.
Why use it?
It can prepare relevant stored context before the agent starts answering a new prompt.

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 hindsight-memory plugin — 1 skill, 4 hooks, 1 MCP server shipped together

One of 4 entries in hooks.json upstream. Installing this one merges just its entry into your config; the other 3 are separate, each on its own page.

Good fit Running Hindsight's recall script before each prompt so earlier project or user context can be loaded.

About the project

vectorize-io/hindsight is an agent memory system that stores experiences and helps AI agents learn over time instead of only recalling conversation history. It is used by developers adding long-term memory to agents, including coding agents. Catalogue add-ons connect agents to Hindsight and its memory workflows.

Security

Grade A, and why

UserPromptSubmit 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.

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.
