Anthropic's Claude Code offers developers powerful hooks to automate workflows and enhance safety. The `PreToolUse` hook acts as a guard against destructive commands like `rm -rf` or `git push --force`, preventing unintended actions. The `PostToolUse` hook automatically lints and formats code after writes, ensuring consistency across agent-generated and human-written code. Additionally, the `Stop` hook enables automatic Git commits at the end of a session, preserving a complete history of changes, with a built-in defense against stale lock files. AI
