skill-pilot: Hook for Gemini CLI

.gemini/settings.json

BeforeAgent is a hook for Gemini CLI from X-School-Academy/skill-pilot. Its token cost is not measured, scanned A, original, MIT.

An agent hook that runs a command before an AI coding agent receives a user prompt. It passes the prompt to a Gemini-related hook script.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to connect prompt submission to a project’s hook system and run the configured user-prompt check.
Why use it?
It lets a project check or process prompts before the agent handles them, without requiring a manual step.

Hook for Gemini CLI

Written for Gemini CLI: installed under .gemini/.

This is X-School-Academy/skill-pilot's own configuration. It tells Gemini CLI how to work on skill-pilot 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 skill-pilot configures →

One of 3 entries in settings.json upstream. Installing this one merges just its entry into your config; the other 2 are separate, each on its own page.

Security

Grade A, and why

BeforeAgent 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 16d 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.
