A setup guide for adding checks that run before code is committed in a TypeScript project.

In plain words

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

setup-pre-commit 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.

The opening of the file, as written. The whole thing — 171 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.

Setup Pre-Commit Hooks

Set up (or extend) the EVOKORE pre-commit chain: Husky + lint-staged + Prettier + typecheck + a fast-failing integration-test slice. Detect the existing setup before writing anything; if the repo already has Husky configured, this skill is an UPLIFT (extend, never overwrite).

When to use this skill

Use when an operator asks to install pre-commit hooks, set up Husky, configure lint-staged, add commit-time formatting / typechecking / testing to an EVOKORE-style TypeScript repo, or extend an existing pre-commit chain that's already partially configured.

Trigger phrases that should activate this skill:

  • "set up pre-commit hooks"
  • "install Husky"
  • "add lint-staged"
  • "extend the pre-commit chain"
  • "wire Prettier into commits"
  • "add a typecheck pre-commit step"

Do not use this skill for:

  • CI / GitHub-Actions pre-merge gates (those are separate from local pre-commit hooks; use a CI-focused skill).
  • Bypassing the pre-commit hook (git commit --no-verify) — see "Bypass and debugging" below.
  • Repos that aren't TypeScript-based and Node-toolchain compatible — adapt manually instead of running this skill blindly.

Adapted From Upstream

This skill is adapted from mattpocock/skills @ 90ea8eec03d4ae8f43427aaf6fe4722653561a42 / setup-pre-commit/SKILL.md, MIT licence (c) 2026 Matt Pocock. Upstream attribution and licence text live in the repo-root NOTICE and at SKILLS/upstream/mattpocock-skills/LICENSE.

The upstream provides a clean greenfield install. EVOKORE's port adds: detection, uplift (no silent overwrite), an EVOKORE-style integration-test slice on commit, a typecheck step keyed off npm run build when no typecheck script exists, and a damage-control-aware bypass note. The upstream content remains in the read-only SKILLS/upstream/mattpocock-skills/ submodule and is not indexed by SkillManager.

EVOKORE-Specific Adaptations

  1. Detect-first, write-second. Inspect package.json for husky / lint-staged keys, check .husky/ directory, and read any .prettierrc* or .lintstagedrc* files before writing anything. If any are present, surface the diff and uplift; do not silently overwrite.
  2. Integration-test slice on commit. Upstream runs npm run test (the full suite) on every commit. EVOKORE's full vitest suite (~2053 tests across 121 files) is too slow for pre-commit, so the EVOKORE pre-commit runs only npx vitest run --bail=1 tests/integration/ (98 integration tests, sub-minute on the dev box). Full-suite gating moves to CI.
  3. Typecheck graceful fallback. Upstream calls npm run typecheck. EVOKORE's package.json exposes npm run build (which is npx tsc) as the typecheck path. If typecheck script is absent, the hook uses npx tsc --noEmit directly so the commit doesn't emit dist/ artefacts.
  4. Damage-control-aware bypass note. git commit --no-verify is the standard escape hatch but EVOKORE's damage-control hook (scripts/hooks/damage-control.js) may flag it under DC-rules. The skill documents npx lint-staged --no-stash as the debug path instead of teaching --no-verify.
  5. Composition. Terminal skill — no next, invoke X skill chain. Once installed, the hook runs in-process on every git commit; nothing further to orchestrate.
