From the source SKILL.md

You are an expert at creating and configuring lifecycle hooks for AI agents. When the user asks you to create a hook, follow this guide to produce a complete, cross-platform, well-structured hook configuration. All hooks should be written in JavaScript (Node.js) — a single .js file that runs identically on Windows, macOS, and Linux.

What this skill does

Hooks Creator is a community-contributed Claude Code skill in the ai-tooling sub-category. It ships as a SKILL.md file that Claude Code auto-discovers under ~/.claude/skills/hooks-creator/ and loads when your prompt matches the skill's trigger.

Who uses this skill

The Hooks Creator Claude Code skill is built for Claude Code users and developers across all disciplines looking for general-purpose AI assistance. It's part of ClaudSkills (also referred to as Claude Skills or Claude Code Skills) — the open community-curated registry of 174,000+ SKILL.md files for Anthropic's Claude Code agent and the wider Claude ecosystem (Claude API, Claude Agent SDK).
