Unclear It is not established whether prompt-type hooks loaded this way actually run.
What
Hooks are actions Claude Code runs automatically at set points, for example before a tool runs. When Claude Code reads hooks from your settings, it now checks first whether each one is a prompt-type hook. Before, it only recognised command hooks.
- A prompt-type hook is recorded as
promptand keeps itscontinue_on_blockandstatus_messageoptions. - A hook whose
ifcondition is not valid is dropped. - Anything that is not a prompt hook is read as a command hook, as before.
Why
This may let prompt-type hooks be loaded from your settings file.
