The two bridge plugins that run a user's existing Claude Code / Codex hook
config on the harness's typed interception seams, built on the shared
dsh-hook-protocol library. A bridge is a faithfulness adapter, not a power
tool: anything it does a native cordis plugin does more powerfully — the
bridge exists only to run UNMODIFIED external hooks.
- dsh-hooks-claude: CC dialect. Seven hook points (SessionStart,
UserPromptSubmit, PreToolUse, PostToolUse, Stop, SubagentStart,
SubagentStop), CC per-event stdin payloads, env + ${CLAUDE_PLUGIN_ROOT}/
${CLAUDE_PROJECT_DIR} substitution, literal-or-regex matcher.
- dsh-hooks-codex: Codex dialect — a deliberate subset. Five hook points,
always-regex matcher, snake_case payloads (turn_id/model, no trailing
newline), no env/substitution, block-only decisions.
Both map the neutral merged outcome onto the seam's typed Decision and stamp
an explicit {kind:'plugin'} source on injected context (so it is never
mislabeled as a user prompt). Config parse-failure is contained; only command
hooks run. updatedInput is logged+warned (input rewrite deferred); the Stop
loop-guard is deferred (TODO).
Tests: per-file 100% — config-parse unit branches + per-seam mappings
end-to-end through the REAL loop + REAL bash + REAL shell scripts (scripted
mock model only) + a real-Loader export-shape guard. A keyless ACP snapshot
scenario (hook-prompt-block) proves a UserPromptSubmit hook blocks a prompt
end-to-end (rejected turn -> ACP cancelled, hook/* events in the log); a
with-key e2e (hooks.e2e.ts) proves a PreToolUse hook blocks real bash
(verified on disk). The snapshot normalizer now scrubs hook/result.durationMs.

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).
