Unclear It is not known whether plugin authors can call the new notify method.

What

Hooks are scripts Claude Code runs automatically at certain points, and plugins can supply them. The context those plugins work with now has a notify method that sends a message tagged with the hook's origin. It reports that there is nowhere to show the message. The code that registers plugins also takes a new argument.

Why

This widens what hook plugins can do.
