Round-1 Codex review findings on the bridges: - Stop force-continue (both bridges): a blocking Stop hook with EMPTY stderr yielded decision 'deny' + reason undefined, and the `&& reason !== undefined` guard let the turn STOP — the opposite of a blocking Stop hook. Force-continue on any deny; fall back to a generic steering line when there is no reason. - Codex payload tool_name: hardcoded "Bash" disagreed with the exec.name matcher subject, so a real Codex `matcher:"Bash"` never fired against the harness's lowercase `bash` tool. Use exec.name in both payload builders (matches the matcher subject and the sibling CC bridge). Doc/RFC updated. - Codex plain-stdout context: SessionStart/UserPromptSubmit are documented to treat a clean hook's PLAIN (non-JSON) stdout as additionalContext, but nothing folded it. runPoint now folds plain stdout into context for those two events, gated on the codec's JSON gate so structured stdout is never dumped as prose. - continue:false is deferred, not honored: the seams have no hard-halt primitive yet. TODO(hook-continue-false) at both bridges + an RFC deferred note; the two tests now assert the LOG records the halt request AND that the run is NOT actually halted (no longer misleading). - README concurrency wording: hooks run SERIALLY (deliberate — adjacent invoked/result log pairs, order-independent fold), not concurrently. Fixed the CC README claim + an RFC note. Regression guards proven red on the unfixed code, then reverted. The mismatched- hookEventName discard (also flagged) is fixed in dsh-hook-protocol and merged down.
hooks/ — hook bridges + shared protocol
The hooks subsystem lets users extend the agent at lifecycle points the way Claude Code and Codex do — by pointing a bridge plugin at an existing hooks.json (or settings) so those external shell hooks run faithfully. The canonical extension surface itself is the harness's typed interception seams (the interception-seams RFC); a "native hook" is just an ordinary cordis plugin on those seams. These packages are the bridges that translate the external shell-hook protocol onto that same surface, plus the shared wire-protocol library they build on.
| Package | Role | Shape |
|---|---|---|
hook-protocol/ |
Shared wire-protocol core: matcher primitive, exit-code/stdout codec, runHook (via ctx.bash), most-restrictive merge, hook/* session events |
library (no plugin) |
hooks-claude/ |
Bridge for a Claude Code hooks.json / settings |
plugin |
hooks-codex/ |
Bridge for a Codex hooks.json |
plugin |
Codex deliberately reimplements a subset of the Claude Code protocol (same hooks.json shape, 5 events vs CC's many, command-only, regex-only matcher, no env/substitution), so hook-protocol owns the genuinely-identical primitives and each bridge owns only what differs (its per-event stdin payload, env, and the mapping of a hook's neutral outcome onto the harness's typed Decisions).
