Unclear What functionality actually uses the new command.describe hook is not established by this finding.

What

Claude Code's internal hook system (the machinery that lets different parts of the app react to events) now includes a new core event named command.describe, alongside existing ones like agent.offer, tool.describe, session.start, and the turn.start/turn.step/turn.complete events.

Why

This is internal plumbing rather than something a reader interacts with directly. It suggests Claude Code now has a defined point for describing commands, similar to how it already describes tools, but the finding doesn't say what consumes this event yet.
