PostCompact

PostCompact is a hook for Claude Code from yaniv-golan/claude-familiar. Its token cost is not measured, scanned A, a copy of SessionStart, MIT.

A command hook that runs a shell script after an AI coding session’s context has been shortened. Context compaction is the process of reducing earlier conversation details so work can continue within a limit.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to run the configured post-compaction shell script asynchronously after context is compacted, with a short execution limit.
Why use it?
Important follow-up tasks may be needed after conversation history is compacted. This hook automates a script at that point instead of relying on a manual step.

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 familiar-extras plugin — 1 skill, 1 command, 5 hooks, 1 MCP server shipped together

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

Good fit Use it to run the configured post-compaction shell script asynchronously after context is compacted, with a short execution limit.

Security

Grade A, and why

PostCompact 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 9d 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

63% identical to SessionStart — 9 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.
