What it does

Hooks Automation is an agent skill from aiskillstore/marketplace. Automated coordination, formatting, and learning from Claude Code operations using intelligent hooks with MCP integration. Includes pre/post task hooks, session management, Git integration, memory coordination, and neural pattern training for enhanced development workflows.

Its SKILL.md is about 7.8k tokens, which your agent loads only when the skill is triggered. The skill folder holds 1 other file (for example `skill-report.json`).

It sits in Agent Workflows, covering MCP servers, Authentication and Git workflow. It works with Git. The repository describes itself as: Security-audited skills for Claude, Codex & Claude Code. One-click install, quality verified.

When your agent uses it

  • Tasks that involve MCP servers
  • Tasks that involve Authentication
  • Tasks that involve Git workflow

Example prompts

  • “/hooks-automation”

Requirements

  • Node.js
  • Docker

Workflow steps

7 steps, taken from the first numbered list in SKILL.md.

  1. Keep Hooks Lightweight - Target < 100ms execution time
  2. Use Async for Heavy Operations - Don't block the main flow
  3. Cache Aggressively - Store frequently accessed data
  4. Batch Related Operations - Combine multiple actions
  5. Use Memory Wisely - Set appropriate TTLs
  6. Monitor Hook Performance - Track execution times
  7. Parallelize When Possible - Run independent hooks concurrently

What it can do on your machine

Read from SKILL.md and the folder at commit 44923f3. It shows what the files ask for, not the result of running them.

  • Tool permissions

    Pre-approves nothing: there is no allowed-tools line, so your agent's usual permission prompts apply.

    From allowed-tools in the SKILL.md frontmatter.

  • Runs code

    Shell commands in SKILL.md call:

    • npx
    • git
    • npm
    • jq

    From the folder's file list and the shell code blocks in SKILL.md.

  • Network

    No URLs in SKILL.md. Its commands use npx, git and npm, which can reach the network depending on how they are called.

    From URLs in SKILL.md, links to its own repository left out.

  • Credentials

    Names no API keys, tokens, secrets or passwords.

    From names ending in _API_KEY, _TOKEN, _SECRET, _KEY or _PASSWORD in SKILL.md.

Context cost

Hooks Automation loads about 7.8k tokens when it runs. Until then it costs about 73 tokens; SKILL.md has 1,094 words of instructions outside code blocks.

Always · name and description, kept in context so the agent knows when to use it
~73
When it runs · the whole SKILL.md, loaded when a task matches
~7.8k

Estimates: characters ÷ 4, the usual rule of thumb; real counts depend on the model's tokenizer. Scripts and assets cost tokens only if the agent reads them.

Auto-check: notes

The automated check noted patterns worth knowing about, such as sudo or a known installer.

  • NoteMentions a .env fileSKILL.md:740
    "file": ".env.production",

Automated static check — not a guarantee. Review scripts before installing. It scans the text of SKILL.md for risky patterns (piping downloads into a shell, reading credential files, hidden Unicode, destructive commands); files beside SKILL.md are not scanned.

SKILL.md

Without a licence we can't republish the file, so here is its outline and opening line. It has 1,094 words (~7,837 tokens).

“Intelligent automation system that coordinates, validates, and learns from Claude Code operations through hooks integrated with MCP tools and neural pattern training.”
