Unclear It is not clear what the new check tests, so it is not known which hooks now count as the organization's.
What
Hooks are commands Claude Code runs automatically at set points. Claude Code uses a simpler check to decide whether a hook belongs to your organization. Hooks that pass get the organization's shell prefix from CLAUDE_CODE_SHELL_PREFIX, a command placed in front of every hook command, along with the organization's environment variables.
The check no longer looks at the kind of hook or at the plugin or skill it came from. Before, status line and file suggestion hooks were always left out. Claude Code can also now report when an organization hook starts without the environment variables a person's plugin set.
Why
This can change which hooks run with your organization's shell prefix and environment.
