Github Copilot CLI - Hooks
In this 5th video of our GitHub Copilot CLI series, we explore a powerful customization layer in GitHub Copilot CLI: Hooks. Think of hooks as strategic "plug-and-play" points in the AI’s workflow where you can inject your own custom shell commands or scripts.
Whether you need to enforce security standards, audit AI activity, or automate environment setup, hooks allow you to act as a gatekeeper for every interaction Copilot has with your terminal.
What you’ll learn:
The Concept of Hooks: Identifying the strategic points in an agent's workflow (start, end, pre-tool, post-tool).
Key Use Cases: Approving/denying tool executions, automated secret scanning to prevent credential leaks, and audit logging for compliance.
Types of Hooks: A breakdown of Session Start/End, User Prompt Submitted, Pre/Post Tool Use, and Error Occurred hooks.
Configuration & Format: How to set up your hooks.json file within the .github/hooks/ directory.
