create-hook

A project setup tool that creates Claude Code hooks, which run commands or send requests when coding events occur.

In plain words
What is it for?
It can set up type checks, formatting, linting, tests before commits, secret scans, and protection for selected directories.
Why use it?
It helps automate checks and notifications instead of relying on someone to remember them after every change.

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 B, and why

create-hook scanned grade B with 1 finding 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 2d 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.

How it starts

The opening of the file, as written. The whole thing — 248 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.

Analyse the project, suggest useful hooks, then create and validate the one the user selects.

$ARGUMENTS is optional — pass a description of what you want the hook to do (e.g. "type-check after every edit") to skip the suggestion step.

Step 1 — Detect tooling and suggest hooks

Scan the project root for these indicators and propose relevant hooks:

Detected Suggested hook
tsconfig.json PostToolUse — type-check .ts/.tsx files after each edit; surface errors as additionalContext so Claude auto-fixes
.prettierrc / prettier.config.* PostToolUse — auto-format the edited file after each Write/Edit
.eslintrc.* / eslint.config.* PostToolUse — lint + auto-fix the edited file after each Write/Edit
package.json with test script PreToolUse (Bash) — run tests before any git commit command
.git/ directory PreToolUse (Bash) — scan staged files for secrets/API keys before commit
Any project PostToolUse — block writes to protected directories (migrations/, generated/)

If $ARGUMENTS was provided, skip suggestions and go directly to Step 2 using the described purpose.

Otherwise: list the suggested hooks and ask the user which one to create. If they describe a custom purpose, proceed with that.

Step 2 — Configure the hook

Ask only what you don't already know from the user's description:

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.

create-hook is a skill published in the GitHub repository dixus/claudeframework (10 stars, last pushed 4mo ago), licensed MIT. It adds 35 tokens to every session and 2,428 once invoked, about $0.0002 per session on Opus 5. A static security scan graded it B with 1 finding (reads agent configuration directories). No closer match exists in the catalogue, so it is treated as the original; first seen 2026-08-31.
