hookify-rules
Create and configure hookify rules — markdown files with YAML frontmatter that match bash, file, prompt, or stop events by regex or conditions and show warn/block messages to the agent. Use when creating a hookify rule, writing hook rule syntax, configuring hookify, or adding pattern guardrails such as blocking dangerous commands, .env edits, or debug code.

# Writing Hookify Rules
## Overview
ECC evaluates project-local Hookify rules with its built-in Node runtime. No
separate Hookify plugin or Python installation is required when ECC hooks are
