Developer creates Claude Code hook to verify AI task completion

By PulseAugur Editorial · [1 sources] ·

A developer created a "Stop hook" for Claude Code to address instances where the AI claims tasks are completed or fixed without sufficient proof. This hook analyzes the AI's actions and prompts it to provide evidence, such as successful test runs or status codes, before concluding a task. Initial testing indicated the hook would have blocked 86 out of 406 claims, with most being wrap-up statements lacking direct proof. Subsequent adjustments to the hook improved its accuracy by considering earlier successful actions, reducing the blocked claims to just two, prioritizing the detection of critical errors over tidiness.

    I Got Tired of Claude Code Saying "It's Fixed" When Nothing Had Run

    <p>The two replies that have cost me the most time are short ones. "It's fixed." And "that isn't used anywhere." Both sound like a place you can stop. I would read one, move on to the next thing, and only find out later that nothing had run since the last edit, or that the agent …
