in plain english

This repository, rust-claude-hooks, is a personal collection of automation scripts designed to change how the Claude AI coding assistant behaves when you use it. Instead of just accepting whatever Claude generates, these scripts let you set up custom rules and checks that run automatically behind the scenes. The practical benefit is that you can catch mistakes, enforce coding standards, or trigger specific actions every time Claude does something, giving you much tighter control over the AI's workflow. At a technical level, Claude allows users to set up "hooks," which are essentially automated triggers that fire before or after certain events, like when the AI tries to write a file or run a command. This project provides a set of those hooks written in Rust. While the README does not go into detail about the specific rules included, the general idea is that these scripts intercept Claude's actions, evaluate them against custom logic, and either allow the action to proceed, block it, or modify the outcome. This tool would be most useful for developers or technical founders who use Claude to write code on a daily basis but want to enforce a stricter development process. For example, if you want to ensure that Claude never commits code with debugging print statements left in, or that it automatically formats files in a specific way before saving, you could use these hooks to enforce those rules without having to manually review every single change. One notable aspect of this project is the choice to build the hooks using Rust. While the repository's primary language is listed as Shell, the project leans on Rust for the actual hook logic. Rust is known for being extremely fast and reliable, which is important here because these scripts run constantly in the background. If a hook is too slow, it makes the entire AI coding experience feel sluggish, so using a fast, compiled language helps keep everything responsive.

prompts (copy fr)

prompt 1
I use Claude to write code but I want to make sure it never leaves debug print statements in committed files. Help me set up a Rust-based hook from rust-claude-hooks that blocks any file save containing console.log or println statements.
prompt 2
I want to automatically run a code formatter on every file Claude tries to write. Show me how to configure a hook from rust-claude-hooks that formats files before they are saved.
prompt 3
Help me write a custom Rust hook for Claude that checks if any new file is missing a license header and blocks the action until one is added.
prompt 4
I want to intercept Claude when it tries to run a shell command and block dangerous commands like rm -rf. Guide me through adding this rule using the rust-claude-hooks framework.
