What is hallucination-detector?

A stop-hook plugin that checks an AI assistant’s output for unsupported claims, speculation, invented measurements, and statements that claim more completeness than the evidence allows.

Use it to audit coding-agent responses for hallucinated behavior, unjustified cause-and-effect claims, fake precision, or unsupported claims that a task is fully complete.

It interrupts completion when an answer needs stronger evidence or a more careful wording. This helps keep generated responses grounded in what is actually known.

Getting it into your agent

One page per mod, every tool's command on it. A separate URL per tool would split the same page into five that compete with each other.

Clone the repo

git clone --depth 1 https://github.com/bitflight-devops/hallucination-detector

Made for: Claude Code.

Security

Grade A, and why

hallucination-detector 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 body, not an audit. Every finding is printed with the line that produced it so you can judge whether it matters here. A mod is markdown that instructs an agent; that is exactly why what it instructs is worth reading.

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.

Contents

What it installs

The manifest is a name and a version. 4 skills, 3 commands, 5 agents, 4 hooks, 1 MCP server travel with it, and installing the plugin installs all of them — 708 tokens a session between them. Each is measured on its own page, and each can be installed alone.

Changes

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.
