README

Hook Maker

Build, install, and manage Claude Code / Codex CLI hooks — including a ready-made cross-project knowledge sync: it keeps the `.ai` knowledge directories of related projects in sync. When a source project's knowledge changes, the hook stages the changed files inside the destination project and asks the agent to review and import what is durable — before it starts the user's task.

Layout

Path	Purpose
`run.ps1`	The launcher — the only script in the root. Runs the wizard in the current terminal (PowerShell 7 first).
`sync-hooks.example.json`	The tracked example config (what CI validates).
`sync-hooks.json`	Your real profiles and routes — machine-local and git-ignored (it holds your project paths). Auto-created from the sample on the first wizard run.
`hooks//`	One folder per hook: `.ps1` + `.env.example` (tracked) + `.env` (your local copy, git-ignored).
`hooks/_hooklib.ps1`	Shared helpers (stdin/`.env`/path/object/hash/JSON/work-time) the shipped hooks dot-source; the `_` prefix keeps it out of the hook picker. It also pins the hook's own stdin/stdout to UTF-8 at dot-source time: `[Console]` otherwise decodes with the console code page, and a hook process with no attached console (a GUI-hosted client, or any parent spawning it with `CreateNoWindow` + redirected pipes) falls back to the machine's OEM page — which silently corrupts every non-ASCII prompt, path, and filename before the hook sees it. It also holds `Get-HookClientId`, the one shared resolution of which client is running the hook: an explicit client id always wins; an explicit id that is not a known client resolves to `unknown` rather than falling through to a guess; `CLAUDE_PROJECT_DIR` is Claude's own positive signal; and Codex stays the default only for a runtime carrying no explicit id — which is every Claude/Codex install made before this existed, so those resolve byte-for-byte as they always did. The known-client
