What problem does it solve?

This Skill helps teams automate Claude Code workflows by generating and validating event-hook configurations in a structured, frontmatter-driven format.

Core Features & Use Cases

• Hook definition generator: Create and update PreToolUse, PostToolUse, and other hook configurations in a consistent JSON structure.
• Validation-ready output: Provides ready-to-test hook definitions and guidance to ensure compatibility with the Hooks Reference and validation script.
• Use Case: A developer needs to add a new PreToolUse hook for a custom tool; this Skill outputs the exact JSON snippet to paste into .claude/settings.json.

Quick Start

Add the following to .claude/settings.json under the appropriate event to configure a simple hook example:

{ "hooks": { "PostToolUse": [ { "matcher": "Write", "hooks": [ { "type": "command", "command": ""$CLAUDE_PROJECT_DIR"/.claude/hooks/script.sh", "timeout": 30 } ] } ] } }
