Conventional Commits
Enforce conventional commit message format for all git commits. Validates commit messages follow the pattern: type(scope): description. Supported types: feat, fix, docs, style, refactor, perf, test, chore, ci, build, revert. Ensures consistent commit history for changelog generation and semantic versioning.
Prevent Direct Push
Prevent direct pushes to protected branches (main, develop). Blocks git push commands targeting main or develop branches to enforce Git Flow workflow. Requires using feature/release/hotfix branches and pull requests instead of direct commits to protected branches.
Simple Notifications
Send desktop notifications when Claude Code finishes working or needs user input. Works on macOS and Linux systems.
Smart Commit
Intelligent git commit creation with automatic message generation and validation. Creates meaningful commits based on file changes.
Update Search Year
Automatically adds current year to WebSearch queries when no year is specified. This hook intercepts WebSearch tool usage and appends the current year to queries that don't already contain a year, ensuring search results are current and relevant.
Smart Formatting
Smart code formatting based on file type. Automatically formats code using Prettier, Black, gofmt, rustfmt, and other language-specific formatters.
