Git hooks

You are in AUTONOMOUS MODE. Do NOT ask questions. Do NOT pause for confirmation. Execute every phase below in sequence, making decisions based on what you find.

============================================================ PHASE 0 — INPUT

$ARGUMENTS may contain:

• --tool=TOOL — force a specific hook manager: husky, lefthook, pre-commit
• --no-commit-msg — skip commit message hook setup
• --no-lint-staged — run full lint instead of staged-only
• --ci — also generate CI workflow to mirror hook checks

If no arguments, auto-detect the best hook tool for the stack.

============================================================ PHASE 1 — STACK DETECTION

Detect the project stack and existing tooling:

Language & Tooling:

• package.json → Node/TS — prefer husky + lint-staged
• pyproject.toml / requirements.txt → Python — prefer pre-commit framework
• go.mod → Go — prefer lefthook or pre-commit
• Cargo.toml → Rust — prefer lefthook
• pubspec.yaml → Flutter/Dart — prefer lefthook
• Gemfile → Ruby — prefer lefthook or overcommit
• Multiple languages → prefer lefthook (polyglot native)

Existing Hooks (check and preserve):

• .husky/ directory — existing husky setup
• .lefthook.yml or lefthook.yml — existing lefthook setup
• .pre-commit-config.yaml — existing pre-commit setup
• .git/hooks/ — raw git hooks (will be replaced)

Lint & Format Tools (detect what to run in hooks):

• ESLint: .eslintrc.* / eslint.config.* / biome.json
• Prettier: .prettierrc* / biome.json
• TypeScript: tsconfig.json → run tsc --noEmit
• Ruff: ruff.toml / pyproject.toml [tool.ruff]
• Black: pyproject.toml [tool.black]
• mypy: mypy.ini / pyproject.toml [tool.mypy]
• golangci-lint: .golangci.yml / .golangci.yaml
• gofmt/goimports: always available with Go
• Clippy: always available with Rust
• rustfmt: always available with Rust
• dart analyze / dart format: always available with Flutter

Record: hook tool, lint commands, format commands, type-check command, test command.

============================================================ PHASE 2 — SET UP HOOK MANAGER

If Node.js (husky + lint-staged):

1. Install dependencies:

   npm install --save-dev husky lint-staged
   

2. Initialize husky:

   npx husky init
   

3. Create .husky/pre-commit:

   npx lint-staged
   

4. Add lint-staged config to package.json:

   {
     "lint-staged": {
       "*.{js,jsx,ts,tsx}": ["eslint --fix", "prettier --write"],
       "*.{json,md,yml,yaml}": ["prettier --write"]
     }
   }
   

   Adjust glob patterns and commands based on detected linters. If Biome is detected instead of ESLint+Prettier:

   {
     "lint-staged": {
       "*.{js,jsx,ts,tsx,json}": ["biome check --write"]
     }
   }
   

5. If TypeScript detected, add type-check to pre-commit (runs on all files, not staged):

   npx lint-staged
   npx tsc --noEmit
   

If Python (pre-commit framework):

1. Install: pip install pre-commit (or add to dev dependencies)
2. Create .pre-commit-config.yaml:

   repos:
     - repo: https://github.com/astral-sh/ruff-pre-commit
       rev: v0.8.0
       hooks:
         - id: ruff
           args: [--fix]
         - id: ruff-format
     - repo: https://github.com/pre-commit/mirrors-mypy
       rev: v1.13.0
       hooks:
         - id: mypy
   

   Adjust repos based on detected tools (Black instead of Ruff, pyright instead of mypy).
3. Install hooks: pre-commit install

If Go / Rust / Flutter / Polyglot (lefthook):

1. Install lefthook (detect best method):
   • npm: npm install --save-dev lefthook
   • brew: brew install lefthook
   • go: go install github.com/evilmartians/lefthook@latest
2. Create lefthook.yml:

   pre-commit:
     parallel: true
     commands:
       lint:
         glob: "*.go"
         run: golangci-lint run --fix {staged_files}
       format:
         glob: "*.go"
         run: gofmt -w {staged_files}
   

   Adjust commands per detected language.
3. Install hooks: lefthook install

============================================================ PHASE 3 — COMMIT MESSAGE HOOK

Skip if --no-commit-msg was passed.

Set up conventional commit enforcement:

For husky (Node.js):

1. Install: npm install --save-dev @commitlint/cli @commitlint/config-conventional
2. Create commitlint.config.js:

   export default { extends: ['@commitlint/config-conventional'] };
   

3. Create .husky/commit-msg:

   npx --no -- commitlint --edit $1
   

For pre-commit (Python): Add to .pre-commit-config.yaml:

  - repo: https://github.com/compilerla/conventional-pre-commit
    rev: v3.6.0
    hooks:
      - id: conventional-pre-commit
        stages: [commit-msg]

Run: pre-commit install --hook-type commit-msg

For lefthook: Add to lefthook.yml:

commit-msg:
  commands:
    conventional:
      run: |
        MSG=$(head -1 {1})
        if ! echo "$MSG" | grep -qE '^(feat|fix|docs|style|refactor|perf|test|build|ci|chore|revert)(\(.+\))?!?: .+'; then
          echo "Commit message must follow Conventional Commits format"
          echo "Examples: feat: add login, fix(auth): token expiry"
          exit 1
        fi

============================================================ PHASE 4 — VERIFY HOOKS WORK

1. Run the pre-commit hook manually to verify it works:

   • Husky: npx lint-staged
   • Pre-commit: pre-commit run --all-files
   • Lefthook: lefthook run pre-commit

2. If the hook fails on existing code:

   • Auto-fix what can be auto-fixed (formatting, simple lint rules)
   • Commit the fixes: fix: auto-fix lint and format violations
   • Re-run to verify hooks pass

3. Test the commit-msg hook with an invalid message to confirm it rejects it, then test with a valid conventional commit message.

============================================================ PHASE 5 — CI MIRROR (IF --ci)

If --ci was passed, generate a GitHub Actions workflow that mirrors the hook checks:

Create .github/workflows/lint.yml:

name: Lint
on:
  pull_request:
    branches: [main, master]
jobs:
  lint:
    runs-on: ubuntu-latest
    steps:
      - uses: actions/checkout@v4
      - # setup language runtime
      - # run same lint/format/typecheck commands as hooks

This ensures hooks cannot be bypassed with --no-verify.

============================================================ SELF-HEALING VALIDATION (max 2 iterations)

After completing, validate the output was produced correctly:

1. Verify generated files exist and are syntactically valid.
2. Run any available validation (lint, type-check, dry-run).
3. If the skill produces configuration, verify it parses without errors.

IF VALIDATION FAILS:

• Diagnose from error context and re-generate the failing artifact
• Repeat up to 2 iterations

============================================================ OUTPUT

Print a summary:

## Git Hooks Setup Complete

### Hook Manager: {husky|lefthook|pre-commit}

### Pre-Commit Hooks
- Lint: {eslint --fix | ruff --fix | golangci-lint run}
- Format: {prettier --write | ruff-format | gofmt}
- Type Check: {tsc --noEmit | mypy | N/A}
- Scope: {staged files only | all files}

### Commit-Msg Hook
- Enforcing: Conventional Commits (feat|fix|docs|...)

### Files Created/Modified
- {list of files created or modified}

### Existing Violations Fixed
- {N auto-fixable issues fixed, or "none"}

============================================================ NEXT STEPS

1. Make a test commit to verify hooks run correctly
2. Run /linter if lint configuration needs improvement
3. Run /release to set up automated releases that consume conventional commits
4. Consider adding --no-verify to your CI push commands if hooks run in CI separately

============================================================ SELF-EVOLUTION TELEMETRY

After producing output, record execution metadata for the /evolve pipeline.

Check if a project memory directory exists:

• Look for the project path in ~/.claude/projects/
• If found, append to skill-telemetry.md in that memory directory

Entry format:

### /git-hooks — {{YYYY-MM-DD}}
- Outcome: {{SUCCESS | PARTIAL | FAILED}}
- Self-healed: {{yes — what was healed | no}}
- Iterations used: {{N}} / {{N max}}
- Bottleneck: {{phase that struggled or "none"}}
- Suggestion: {{one-line improvement idea for /evolve, or "none"}}

Only log if the memory directory exists. Skip silently if not found. Keep entries concise — /evolve will parse these for skill improvement signals.

============================================================ DO NOT

• Do NOT install multiple hook managers — pick one and use it consistently
• Do NOT configure hooks that take longer than 10 seconds on staged files
• Do NOT run full test suites in pre-commit — only lint, format, and type-check
• Do NOT silently swallow hook errors — hooks must fail loudly with clear messages
• Do NOT overwrite existing hook configurations without reading them first
• Do NOT use deprecated commitlint configs (e.g., .commitlintrc without module type)
• Do NOT add hooks for tools that are not installed or configured in the project
