Create Hooks for AI Agents: Automate Claude Code Events

Automate Claude Code Events with Create Hooks for AI Agents

Create Hooks for AI Agents is a tool designed to automate and customise the behaviour of AI coding agents like Claude Code, Cursor, and Codex. This skill facilitates the creation of hooks—custom scripts or prompt-based checks—that are executed before or after defined agent events, offering enhanced control and flexibility over agent operations.

What this skill does

• Enables the creation of Cursor hooks by writing to hooks.json and adding hook scripts.
• Supports observing, blocking, modifying, or following up on agent behaviour through JSON communication over stdin/stdout.
• Assists in determining necessary requirements for hook implementation, including scope, triggers, and specific behaviour.
• Allows configuration of project and user hooks in designated file paths.
• Ensures safety configurations for hook failures, allowing for structured fail open or fail closed options.

Who it is for

• Developers involved with AI agent programming who need to automate agent behaviours.
• Teams working on projects involving Claude Code, Cursor, or Codex with requirements for custom event handling.
• Technical leads seeking to organise and streamline workflow consistency across AI-driven applications.

Use cases

• Implementing pre-defined logic to audit or modify input before passing it to the AI agent for execution.
• Configuring post-processing actions to follow up on interpreted agent tasks.
• Adapting workflows dynamically based on tool, command, or subagent type filtering.

Technical details

• Integrates with AI coding agents such as Claude Code, Cursor, and Codex.
• Utilises JSON for hook parameter communication and configuration.
• Distinguishes between project and user hooks for environment-specific configurations.
• Employs scripting and prompt-based approaches for diverse implementation needs.
