PreToolUse

PreToolUse is a hook for Claude Code from Zuehlke/labview-mcp. Its token cost is not measured, scanned A, original, MIT.

A pre-tool hook that runs a PowerShell script before LabVIEW MCP tools are used. The script is called `allow-readonly.ps1`.

In plain words
What is it for?
It is intended for use before LabVIEW MCP tool calls, but the concrete jobs it performs are not specified.
Why use it?
The provided description does not explain what the script permits or blocks, so its exact benefit cannot be stated from this information.

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 labview-mcp plugin — 2 hooks shipped together

One of 2 entries in hooks.json — they are configured in one file and arrive together.

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 6d 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.
