name: claude-code-hooks-config description: Use when asked to add or modify hooks for Claude Code specifically. Or, if the user is asking to automate an action, for example run a formatter after edits, or running a script right before git commits, those are hooks and you should use this skill to implement them.

Adding or Modifying Hooks for Claude Code

Hooks allow specific behaviors or scripts to trigger automatically after highly configurable events.

1. Review the general hooks guide: https://code.claude.com/docs/en/hooks-guide
2. Review the in-depth hooks configuration docs: https://code.claude.com/docs/en/hooks
3. Edit the project-level .claude/settings.json, either adding, editing, or expanding the hooks property to achieve the goal. It's important to do this at the project level, unless the user specifically asks you to add a system-wide hook at the user level (~/.claude/settings.json), which is less common.
4. Work with the user to trigger the target event(s) and confirm it's working as expected.
