Hooks Automation

Hooks Automation is a skill for Claude Code from spencermarx/open-code-review. It costs 46 tokens per session (7,560 once invoked), scanned C, a copy of Hooks Automation, Apache-2.0.

An automation system that runs actions before and after coding tasks, manages sessions, connects Git operations, and preserves shared agent context.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to prepare and validate operations, assign agents, restore session state, format results, verify commits, and retain context between sessions.
Why use it?
It reduces repetitive setup, validation, formatting, state management, and coordination work during development.

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 C, and why

Hooks Automation scanned grade C 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.

Recursive force deletehighDestructive command

rm -rf with a variable or a broad path is one typo away from removing the wrong tree.

Hooks Automation

Intelligent automation system that coordinates, validates, and learns from Claude Code operations through hooks integrated with MCP tools and neural pattern training.

What This Skill Does

This skill provides a comprehensive hook system that automatically manages development operations, coordinates swarm agents, maintains session state, and continuously learns from coding patterns. It enables automated agent assignment, code formatting, performance tracking, and cross-session memory persistence.

Key Capabilities:

  • Pre-Operation Hooks: Validate, prepare, and auto-assign agents before operations
  • Post-Operation Hooks: Format, analyze, and train patterns after operations
  • Session Management: Persist state, restore context, generate summaries
  • Memory Coordination: Synchronize knowledge across swarm agents
  • Git Integration: Automated commit hooks with quality verification
  • Neural Training: Continuous learning from successful patterns
  • MCP Integration: Seamless coordination with swarm tools

Prerequisites

Required:

  • Claude Flow CLI installed (npm install -g claude-flow@alpha)
  • Claude Code with hooks enabled
  • .claude/settings.json with hook configurations

Optional:

  • MCP servers configured (claude-flow, ruv-swarm, flow-nexus)
  • Git repository for version control
  • Testing framework for quality verification

Quick Start

Initialize Hooks System

# Initialize with default hooks configuration
npx claude-flow init --hooks

This creates:

  • .claude/settings.json with pre-configured hooks
  • Hook command documentation in .claude/commands/hooks/
  • Default hook handlers for common operations

Basic Hook Usage

# Pre-task hook (auto-spawns agents)
npx claude-flow hook pre-task --description "Implement authentication"

# Post-edit hook (auto-formats and stores in memory)
npx claude-flow hook post-edit --file "src/auth.js" --memory-key "auth/login"

# Session end hook (saves state and metrics)
npx claude-flow hook session-end --session-id "dev-session" --export-metrics

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.
