What problem does it solve?

This Skill enables the creation and debugging of custom lifecycle event handlers (hooks) for Claude Code, automating quality gates, safety checks, and workflow processes during tool execution.

Core Features & Use Cases

• Design Quality Gates: Implement hooks to enforce coding standards, ensure tests pass before commits, or validate output.
• Build Safety Rails: Create hooks to block dangerous operations like writing to sensitive directories or force-pushing to main branches.
• Implement Logging: Set up hooks to audit tool usage and track file modifications.
• Use Case: Automatically format code on save using prettier or black by creating a PostToolUse hook.

Quick Start

Create a PreToolUse hook that blocks git commit commands if tests have not passed.
