What
Hooks are your own commands that Claude Code runs at set moments. When a hook is set up, other than those coming from plugins, internal callbacks or a forwarding device, Claude Code used to note this only in memory. It now also records it in its saved state.
Why
This is a change to how Claude Code keeps track of its own state. Nothing you do needs to change.
