pgrep-pkill-guard
rvenutolo ★ 0
This Claude Code PreToolUse hook blocks pgrep/pkill commands that would match the agent's own shell process or create infinite polling loops, preventing unintended session termination and timeouts. When a dangerous command pattern is detected, it denies execution and provides specific mitigations such as killing by PID, using --ignore-ancestors, or the bracket-hiding regex trick.
