PreToolUse:Agent advisory — warns orchestrator if git status is dirty
before spawning next agent. Closes the workflow gap that caused 28
uncommitted files across 5 bundles on main (2026-04-22 incident).
hooks/orchestrator-dirty-check.sh (51 LOC, POSIX sh):
- Sources _lib/gate.sh, respects KEI_DISABLED_HOOKS
- Reads git status --porcelain at repo root
- Emits stderr advisory with modified/untracked counts + sample
- Exit 0 always (advisory, not blocking)
- Bypass: ORCHESTRATOR_META=1 (existing RULE 0.13 flag) or
ORCHESTRATOR_DIRTY_OK=1 (new, explicit)
- Severity: warn — per RULE 0.10 ladder; upgrade to enforce
only after 2nd recurrence
hooks/_lib/test-orchestrator-dirty-check.sh (60 LOC):
- 5 test cases with mocked git PATH shim
- Clean / dirty-modified / dirty-untracked / env-bypass /
gate-bypass
- PASS 5/5 (existing gate.sh tests unchanged — 11/11)
Wired into hooks/hooks.json (plugin format) and settings-snippet.json
(classic install) at PreToolUse/Agent matcher.

Hooks Control — Runtime Hook Enable/Disable
Click-only wizard. Helps you toggle KeiSeiKit hooks for the current shell
session via env vars, without editing ~/.claude/settings.json. The skill
emits shell commands; it NEVER runs them.
Two env vars are honoured by every kit-shipped hook (v0.15.1+):
| Var | Meaning |
|---|---|
KEI_DISABLED_HOOKS |
Comma- or space-list of hook base names (no .sh). Matching is tokenized exact-match (v0.15.1 fix — earlier versions used substring-glob, which let foo-all-bar disable every hook). The literal all token still disables every hook. |
KEI_HOOK_PROFILE |
One of full (default), advisory-off, minimal, off. |
| Profile | What stays on |
|---|---|
full (default) |
Every hook |
advisory-off |
Disables pure-stderr advisories: recurrence-suggest, citation-verify, error-spike-detector, milestone-commit-hook. |
minimal |
Only the four kit-shipped hooks needed for structural integrity or observability: no-hand-edit-agents, assemble-validate, agent-fork-logger, session-end-dump. User-global safety hooks (no-github-push, secrets-guard, genesis-leak-guard, git-pre-commit-genesis) are not shipped by the kit but are respected when present in ~/.claude/hooks/. |
off |
Every hook off (escape hatch — use when debugging hook interactions). |
Pipeline (one phase, up to 2 AskUserQuestion batches)
Phase 1 — Show state + pick action
Print current state:
Current KEI_DISABLED_HOOKS: <value or "(unset)">
Current KEI_HOOK_PROFILE: <value or "full (default)">
Active kit-shipped hooks: <list of 9 minus disabled set>
AskUserQuestion — What do you want to do?
- Disable specific hook(s) — this shell session only
- Switch profile —
full/advisory-off/minimal/off - Re-enable everything — clear both env vars
- Show state only — emit no commands
Phase 2a — Hook multi-select (if picked 1)
AskUserQuestion multi-select over the 10 kit-shipped hook names:
assemble-agents, assemble-validate, no-hand-edit-agents, tomd-preread,
agent-fork-logger, orchestrator-dirty-check, site-wysiwyd-check,
error-spike-detector, milestone-commit-hook, session-end-dump.
Emit:
# Disable selected hooks for this shell session:
export KEI_DISABLED_HOOKS=<comma-joined-names>
For persistence, tell the user to paste into ~/.zshrc / ~/.bashrc by
hand. Do NOT edit rc files.
Phase 2b — Profile picker (if picked 2)
AskUserQuestion over full / advisory-off / minimal / off. Emit:
# Switch profile for this shell session:
export KEI_HOOK_PROFILE=<choice>
Phase 2c — Re-enable everything (if picked 3)
Emit directly (no further question):
# Clear all runtime hook overrides (back to full / everything on):
unset KEI_DISABLED_HOOKS KEI_HOOK_PROFILE
Phase 2d — State only (if picked 4)
Stop after the state block.
Rules
- Click-only. Every decision is
AskUserQuestion. No free-text. - Never execute. The skill prints shell commands as code blocks; the
user runs them. Any
exportfrom a tool call would evaporate at skill exit — the shell running hooks is a subshell. - No rc edits. If the user wants persistence, we say "paste into your
shell rc". The skill MUST NOT modify
~/.zshrc/~/.bashrc. - RULE 0.4 — no invented hook names. Only the 10 names in Phase 2a are valid choices. Never suggest a name not in the kit.
- RULE -1 — NO DOWNGRADE. If the user asks "can I silence all safety
hooks?", present tradeoffs; point at
KEI_HOOK_PROFILE=offwith a warning that patent-IP and generated-file protections also go down.
Final report
=== HOOKS-CONTROL REPORT ===
Action: <picked option>
Commands: <N lines emitted>
Scope: current shell session (unless pasted into rc)
Verify: `env | grep KEI_` after pasting
Undo: unset KEI_DISABLED_HOOKS KEI_HOOK_PROFILE
