What
A hook is a command you set to run at a given moment. When a hook's outcome is marked as hidden, Claude Code now keeps the original text and ignores the replacement text the hook supplies. Before, the hook's text always replaced the original.
Why
A hidden hook can no longer rewrite the text it is attached to.
