Some plugin features like agents and hooks may behave differently across tools. The core knowledge in the skill files is tool-agnostic.
Overview
The repo contains skills, agents, and hooks.
- Skills teach agents domain knowledge and workflows. They activate automatically based on task context, or can be invoked manually with
/skill-name. In Claude Code, skills and commands have coalesced; commands are simply more prescriptive skill workflows. - Agents are autonomous subprocesses that handle complex, multi-step tasks independently; typically used for review and validation.
- Hooks run automatically after tool use to validate files and catch errors early. They are deterministic; they fire when a specific pattern is matched, not by LLM judgment.
Hook checks can be individually toggled via plugins/pbip/hooks/config.yaml. Set any check to false to disable it; for example, set fab_exists: false if you don't have the Fabric CLI installed.
