What From Hook is

From Hook is a slash command published in the athola/claude-night-market repository on GitHub, which has about 339 stars. The repository describes itself as: “23 Claude Code plugins: TDD enforcement hooks, git/PR workflows, spec-driven development, code review, project lifecycle, fix-from-error, maintenance automation, context optimization, research, and multi-LLM delegation. 186 skills, 128 commands, 54 agents.”

A slash command is a reusable prompt saved as a markdown file and run by typing its name after a slash. In Claude Code, custom commands have been merged into skills: a file in .claude/commands/ and a skill folder in .claude/skills/ both create the same kind of command, and existing command files keep working.

From Hook gives you a repeatable way to run the same instructions without retyping them, optionally with arguments.

How to install From Hook

Claude Code

  1. Download from-hook.md from the repository.
  2. Save it to ~/.claude/commands/ (all projects) or .claude/commands/ (one project). As a skill, you can instead save it as ~/.claude/skills/<name>/SKILL.md.
  3. Run it by typing / followed by its name.

Claude Cowork

  1. Turn the command into a skill: create a folder with the file saved as SKILL.md and zip it.
  2. In Customize → Skills, click +, then upload the ZIP.
  3. Run it from any task with / and the skill name.

Convert Python SDK hooks to declarative hookify rules.

Usage

/hookify:from-hook <hook_file.py>           # Convert single hook
/hookify:from-hook --scan <hooks_dir>       # Scan directory
/hookify:from-hook <hook.py> -o rules.md    # Output to file

What It Does

  1. Parses Python hook AST
  2. Extracts regex patterns, string checks, startswith/endswith
  3. Generates equivalent hookify rule YAML
  4. Reports unconvertible hooks (network, file I/O, complex logic)

Example

Input hook:

import re
def hook(context):
    if re.search(r"rm -rf /", context["command"]):
        return {"action": "block", "message": "Dangerous!"}

Output rule:

---
name: block-rm-rf
event: bash
pattern: 'rm -rf /'
action: block
---
Dangerous command blocked.

Limitations

Cannot convert hooks with:

  • Network calls (API requests)
  • File I/O operations
  • Complex conditional logic
  • External dependencies

Before you install

  • Read the whole file first. Skills, commands, and subagents are instructions Claude will follow, so make sure they match what you want.
  • Check which tools, scripts, or MCP servers it uses. Local servers and scripts run with your permissions.
  • Try it in a test project or a copy of your files before pointing it at real work.
  • Pin the version you tested, and review changes before updating.
  • Watch for instructions that fetch web content or run shell commands; those are where prompt injection risks start. See our prompt injection guide.
