hook-management

SkillMonitoring & ops

Lets your agent turn monitoring hooks on and off, check their status, and see how fast they run.

Available today. Use it from your connected AI after setup.

Connect ahel once, and every AI you use reads what you have installed.

Then ask your AI: use the hook-management skill

About this capability

Session-scoped hook lifecycle management with enable/disable/status controls, execution profiling, and color-coded performance alerts.

What this skill tells your AI

The instructions your AI receives, as published by a5c-ai/babysitter in library/methodologies/claudekit/skills/hook-management/SKILL.md and read by ahel’s review.

  • file-guard: Blocks sensitive file access (195+ patterns)

PostToolUse Hooks

  • typecheck-changed: Type checking on modified files
  • lint-changed: Linting on modified files
  • test-changed: Testing related to modified files
  • check-comment-replacement: Detects code replaced with comments
  • check-unused-parameters: Detects unused function parameters

UserPromptSubmit Hooks

  • codebase-map: Invisible project context injection
  • thinking-level: Reasoning enhancement (4 levels)

Stop/SubagentStop Hooks

  • create-checkpoint: Git-backed state snapshot
  • typecheck-project: Full project type checking
  • lint-project: Full project linting
  • test-project: Full test suite execution
  • self-review: Comprehensive change review

Session Isolation

All hook changes are session-scoped. Disabling a hook only affects the current session and does not persist.

Profiling

  • Red alert: execution time > 5s
  • Yellow warning: execution time > 3s
  • Green: execution time < 3s
  • Output size monitoring: flag > 10KB

Commands

  • /hook:enable [hookName] -- Enable a disabled hook
  • /hook:disable [hookName] -- Disable a hook for this session
  • /hook:status -- Show all hook states and profiling data

When to Use

  • When a hook is causing issues during a session
  • To check performance of hook executions
  • To temporarily bypass a hook for a specific operation

Processes Used By

  • claudekit-orchestrator (hook pipeline setup)
  • claudekit-safety-pipeline (hook profiling)
