## Description

LLM-powered quality verification using prompt hooks. Validates commit messages, code patterns, and conventions using AI before allowing operations. Use to set up intelligent guardrails.

# LLM Gate

Use Claude Code's `type: "prompt"` hooks to create intelligent quality gates that use AI to verify operations.

## Trigger

Use when:
- Setting up commit message validation
- Enforcing code conventions beyond what linters catch
- Creating smart guardrails for specific operations

## How Prompt Hooks Work

Claude Code supports hooks with `type: "prompt"` that run a small LLM (Haiku by default) to verify conditions:

```json
{
  "PreToolUse": [{
    "matcher": "Bash",
    "hooks": [{
      "type": "prompt",
      "if": "Bash(git commit*)",
      "prompt": "Check if this git commit follows conventional commit format (<type>(<scope>): <summary>). The commit command is: $ARGUMENTS. Return {\"ok\": true} if valid, {\"ok\": false, \"reason\": \"...\"} if not.",
      "model": "haiku",
      "timeout": 15
    }]
  }]
}
```

The hook:
1. Substitutes `$ARGUMENTS` with the JSON hook input
2. Sends to Haiku (fast, cheap)
3. Expects `{"ok": true}` or `{"ok": false, "reason": "..."}`
4. If not ok → blocks the tool call with the reason

## Example Gates

### Conventional Commit Validator
```json
{
  "type": "prompt",
  "if": "Bash(git commit*)",
  "prompt": "Verify this git commit follows conventional commits: type(scope): summary. Types: feat,fix,refactor,test,docs,chore,perf,ci. Summary under 72 chars. Input: $ARGUMENTS",
  "model": "haiku"
}
```

### Destructive Command Guard
```json
{
  "type": "prompt",
  "if": "Bash(rm *)",
  "prompt": "Check if this rm command is safe. Flag if it uses -rf on important directories (src/, node_modules/, .git/). Input: $ARGUMENTS",
  "model": "haiku"
}
```

### API Key Leak Prevention
```json
{
  "type": "prompt",
  "matcher": "Write",
  "prompt": "Check if this file write contains hardcoded API keys, secrets, passwords, or tokens. Input: $ARGUMENTS. Return ok:false if secrets found.",
  "model": "haiku"
}
```

## Agent Hooks

For complex verification, use `type: "agent"` (runs a full agent):
