Unclear Whether the new "ask" decision and guards already take effect, or exist only as names so far, is not settled.

What

A hook is a script a plugin runs at set points while Claude Code works. Several changes appear in the hook system:

  • "ask" decision: decision.ask is now listed among the things a hook can do.
  • New guard categories: reasons are now listed for guards on MCP sign-in redirects, limited chat outside auto mode, plugin entries served over MCP, and configuration folders owned by the host.
  • Absolute paths: a hook whose path is not absolute, meaning not written out in full from the top of the file system, is refused.
Why

Plugin authors get more ways for a hook to respond, and Claude Code gains new categories of protection.
