Groove Admin Claude Hooks

This installs deterministic shell hooks into Claude Code's native lifecycle events, meaning they run outside the model entirely. You get five hooks: a work hours reminder to run your daily end routine, automatic git commit buffering for memory logs, aggressive write blocking on groove managed paths, automatic context repriming after session starts and compactions, and hourly version checks. The protection hook is opinionated and will exit non-zero to prevent you from editing anything under `.agents/skills/groove` or `skills/groove`. If you're building a workflow system on top of Claude Code and need guarantees that certain actions always fire regardless of what the model does, this gives you the plumbing. The merge logic preserves your existing settings.json entries.

$ npx -y skills add andreadellacorte/groove --skill groove-admin-claude-hooks --agent claude-code

Installs into .claude/skills of the current project.

Files

groove-admin-claude-hooks

Install groove's Claude Code native shell hooks. These run outside the model — deterministic, unconditional — and complement groove's advisory markdown hooks (.groove/hooks/start.md, end.md).

Use --disable <hook> to remove a specific hook. Use --list to show current status.

Outcome

Selected hooks are registered in .claude/settings.json and shell scripts are written to .groove/hooks/claude/. Hooks fire automatically on Claude Code lifecycle events without any model involvement.
