A hardened template runner exists inside the disabled cloud hook-template path.

What

A new runner executes hook scripts supplied by the cloud session. It picks the first absolute interpreter it can vet from a fixed list, writes the script to a per-process directory, and runs it through a wrapper that re-reads the file, enforces a size cap and re-checks its SHA-256 before executing. A mismatch exits with code 86 and is reported as an integrity failure.

Details
  • The spawn clears environment variables matching LD_, DYLD_, GCONV_PATH, PYTHON and sets only CLAUDE_PROJECT_DIR. It runs detached in its own process group, which is killed on timeout or abort.
  • Registration and upload require two account flags together, tengu_violin_wood and tengu_violin_amati. If neither has been served yet the request answers "hook_forwarding_not_ready: feature flags not yet available; retry".
  • Policy settings that restrict hooks to plugins, disable customization, allow only managed hooks, or disable hooks entirely clear the registry first.
  • None of these strings exist in 2.1.241.

Strings lifted out of the shipped bundle, so the claim above can be checked against them.

Feature flag
tengu_violin_wood Off in both readings

The flag server returned off for the account this site reads and for the anonymous baseline. A reading of off cannot rule out a rollout these two readings sit outside of.

Read once, for one account on one subscription tier, against v2.1.242. It isn't a statement about your account. What a flag value here can and cannot tell you

What has happened since
Flag reading moved The flag server now returns on for tengu_violin_amati, read as this account. A reading is one sample. Claude Code evaluates its flags remotely, so no client sees the targeting rule behind a value and this says nothing about your account.
