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
enabled.

Hookify rules are markdown files with YAML frontmatter that define patterns to watch for and messages to show when those patterns match. Rules are stored in `.claude/hookify.{rule-name}.local.md` files.
