What is Hookify for Claude Code?

Hookify is a system that uses Markdown-based rules to monitor and control the AI's behavior, allowing you to set guardrails for commands, file edits, and prompts.

Do I need to restart Claude for rules to take effect?

No, Hookify rules activate immediately once the rule file is saved in your .claude/ directory.
