Make Claude Code Smarter

Claude Hooks adds intelligence, safety, and memory to your AI assistant

Claude Code is powerful, but it forgets everything between sessions and repeats the same mistakes. Claude Hooks fixes that.

Learns from your environment - Remembers which commands work and suggests alternatives for ones that fail
🛡️ Prevents dangerous operations - Blocks risky commands before they execute
💾 Never lose work - Automatic backups before context limits
🔄 Seamless continuity - Pick up exactly where you left off

Click to copy the installation prompt

I want to install Claude Hooks - an intelligent system that will make you smarter and safer by learning from my environment and preventing common mistakes.

What it does:

  • Learns which commands fail in my environment and suggests working alternatives
  • Automatically backs up my work before context limits
  • Blocks dangerous commands before they execute
  • Maintains session history across Claude restarts

Installation steps:

  1. git clone https://github.com/anthropics/claude-hooks.git
  2. cd claude-hooks
  3. ./scripts/install.sh
  4. ./scripts/test.sh

After installation:

  • Restart Claude Code to activate the hooks
  • Try claude-hooks status to see it working
  • Try pip install requests to see intelligent command suggestions

Please guide me through this installation step-by-step. Handle any errors that come up and make sure everything works. After installation, help me test it by trying some commands that commonly fail on different systems (like pip vs pip3, python vs python3) so I can see the intelligence in action.

The goal is to have a working Claude Hooks system that starts learning from my environment immediately.

Step 3: Watch Claude Install It For You

Claude will guide you through the installation and help you test it immediately.

That's it! You now have an AI assistant that gets smarter every time you use it.


See It In Action

Before Claude Hooks

$ pip install requests
bash: pip: command not found

You repeat this mistake in every session

After Claude Hooks

$ pip install requests
⚠️ Warning: pip commands often fail (confidence: 88%)
💡 Suggestion: Use "pip3 install requests"

Claude Hooks learned from your environment and prevents the mistake


Why Claude Hooks?

The Problem

Claude Code is incredibly powerful, but it has fundamental limitations:

  • No memory between sessions - repeats the same mistakes
  • No environmental awareness - doesn't know what works on your system
  • Context limits - loses everything when conversations get too long
  • No safety checks - can suggest dangerous operations

The Solution

Claude Hooks adds persistent intelligence that:

  • Learns from every command you run and every mistake made
  • Builds environmental knowledge specific to your system
  • Automatically backs up your work before context limits
  • Validates commands before execution to prevent problems

The Result

An AI assistant that doesn't just help you code - it gets better at helping you over time.
