react-hook

A generator for custom React hooks written in TypeScript. A React hook is reusable code that lets components share behavior such as loading data, tracking state, or responding to events.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to create a hook in the project’s hooks directory, with TypeScript types, tests, cleanup for subscriptions or listeners, and an example of how to call it.
Why use it?
It gives the hook explicit types, handles common asynchronous or cleanup concerns when relevant, and adds a test and usage example. This reduces the work needed to create a hook that fits an existing project.

Token cost

What it costs to keep this loaded

Counted locally with the o200k_base tokenizer, which is exact for GPT models; Claude uses its own tokenizer and its counts differ. Treat this as one consistent yardstick across the catalogue rather than a bill. Prices are per million input tokens.

Security

Grade A, and why

react-hook 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 3d 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.

What it actually says

Generate Custom React Hook

Hook name: use$1 (auto-prefix use if not present) Description: $2

  1. Check existing hooks:
ls src/hooks/ 2>/dev/null | head -10

Read 1-2 existing hooks to match style.

  1. Generate the hook:

    • Proper TypeScript generics if applicable
    • Return type explicitly typed
    • Cleanup in useEffect if subscriptions/listeners involved
    • Error and loading states if async
    • Stable callback references with useCallback
    • Memoized values with useMemo where appropriate
  2. Generate a test using @testing-library/react-hooks or renderHook.

  3. Add a usage example comment at the top:

/**
 * @example
 * const { data, isLoading } = useMyHook(id)
 */
  1. Place in src/hooks/use$1.ts (or match project convention).
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.

react-hook is a skill published in the GitHub repository berkcangumusisik/claude-code-practices (10 stars, last pushed 4mo ago), licensed MIT. It adds 18 tokens to every session and 262 once invoked, about $0.0001 per session on Opus 5. A static security scan graded it A with 0 findings. No closer match exists in the catalogue, so it is treated as the original; first seen 2026-08-31.
