Prioritized Actions

4 recommendations total. P0 items are blockers for safe autonomous operation. Not sure where to start? Free AI Assessment helps map priorities to your specific setup.

P0Add a PostToolUse:Task hook for agent tracing

Configure a PostToolUse hook with matcher 'Task' that logs the agent type, prompt summary, and outcome to a file or database. Without this, every agent failure requires manual reconstruction of what happened.

Time: 20 minutes · Impact: Full visibility into every agent execution

Implementation snippet — add to ~/.claude/settings.json hooks section:

{
  "PostToolUse": [{
    "matcher": "Task",
    "hooks": [{
      "type": "command",
      "command": "jq -r '[now | strftime("%Y-%m-%dT%H:%M:%SZ")] + " [AGENT] " + .tool_name' >> ~/.claude/agent-trace.log"
    }]
  }]
}

P1Add a SessionStart hook for auto-recall

At session start, automatically query your memory system using git context (current branch, recent commits, cwd) to surface relevant prior learnings. Every session currently starts cold.

Time: 30 minutes · Impact: Prior solutions and decisions surfaced automatically — no re-solving the same problems

Implementation snippet — add to ~/.claude/settings.json hooks section:

{
  "Stop": [{
    "hooks": [{
      "type": "command",
      "command": "echo "$(date -Iseconds) session-end" >> ~/.claude/session-log.txt"
    }]
  }]
}

P2Consolidate overlapping rule files

Top overlap: .claude/rules/team-knowledge.md and ~/.claude/rules/team-knowledge.md share 100% of meaningful content. Duplicated instructions add noise to every session without adding clarity.

Time: 20-30 minutes per pair · Impact: Cleaner context, less instruction conflict

Implementation snippet — add to ~/.claude/settings.json hooks section:

{
  "PostToolUse": [{
    "matcher": "Write|Edit",
    "hooks": [{
      "type": "command",
      "command": "jq -r '"[FILE] " + (.tool_input.file_path // .tool_response.filePath // "unknown")' >> ~/.claude/file-changes.log"
    }]
  }]
}

P0Remove secrets from workspace files

Potential API keys or tokens were detected in 1 workspace file(s). Move all secrets to environment variables or a .secrets file outside your project. Ensure .claude/settings.local.json is in .gitignore.

Time: 10 minutes · Impact: Prevent credential exposure in version control

Implementation snippet — add to ~/.claude/settings.json hooks section:

{
  "PostToolUse": [{
    "matcher": "Write|Edit",
    "hooks": [{
      "type": "command",
      "command": "jq -r '"[FILE] " + (.tool_input.file_path // .tool_response.filePath // "unknown")' >> ~/.claude/file-changes.log"
    }]
  }]
}

Missing Hooks — Implementation Guide

Add these to ~/.claude/settings.json. These Claude Code tools hooks give you production-grade observability with zero runtime cost.

Agent Tracing CRITICAL PostToolUse:Task

Records inputs, outputs, and tool calls for every spawned agent.

{
  "PostToolUse": [{
    "matcher": "Task",
    "hooks": [{
      "type": "command",
      "command": "jq -r '[now | strftime("%Y-%m-%dT%H:%M:%SZ")] + " [AGENT] " + .tool_name' >> ~/.claude/agent-trace.log"
    }]
  }]
}

Session Init / Auto-Recall IMPORTANT SessionStart

Primes context at session start (e.g., auto-recall relevant learnings from memory).

# See documentation

File Change Audit USEFUL PostToolUse:Write|Edit

Records every file write and edit for change tracking and rollback.

{
  "PostToolUse": [{
    "matcher": "Write|Edit",
    "hooks": [{
      "type": "command",
      "command": "jq -r '"[FILE] " + (.tool_input.file_path // .tool_response.filePath // "unknown")' >> ~/.claude/file-changes.log"
    }]
  }]
}

Command Logging USEFUL PostToolUse:Bash

Logs all Bash commands executed for debugging and security review.

{
  "PostToolUse": [{
    "matcher": "Bash",
    "hooks": [{
      "type": "command",
      "command": "jq -r '"[CMD] " + .tool_input.command' >> ~/.claude/bash-log.txt"
    }]
  }]
}
