Installation - Windows

⬅ Back to Main README

Prerequisites

  • Python 3: Required for running the hook scripts
    • Verify: python --version
    • Install: Download from python.org or install via winget install Python.Python.3
  • Audio Player: Built-in winsound module (included with Python)

All details are mentioned in HOOKS-README.md

Installation

Step 1: Copy hooks folder

Open terminal in your project directory and run the following commands:

PowerShell:

New-Item -ItemType Directory -Force -Path .claude\hooks
git clone https://github.com/shanraisshan/claude-code-hooks.git temp-hooks
Copy-Item -Recurse -Force temp-hooks\.claude\hooks\* .claude\hooks\
Remove-Item -Recurse -Force temp-hooks

Command Prompt:

if not exist .claude\hooks mkdir .claude\hooks
git clone https://github.com/shanraisshan/claude-code-hooks.git temp-hooks
xcopy /E /I /Y temp-hooks\.claude\hooks\* .claude\hooks\
rmdir /S /Q temp-hooks

Step 2: Copy settings.json keys into your existing Claude settings file

  1. If you don't have a .claude/settings.json file in your project, create one: touch .claude/settings.json
  2. Open install/settings-windows.json and copy the keys (disableAllHooks and hooks) into your .claude/settings.json

Why separate settings files per platform?

  • Python command: python3 (macOS/Linux) vs python (Windows)
  • Script path: ${CLAUDE_PROJECT_DIR} env variable (macOS/Linux) vs relative path (Windows)

Step 3: Start Claude

Start Claude, you will hear "Claude session start" which is the sound played on startup.

Optional: Test Agent Hooks

To test the agent-specific hooks (PreToolUse, PostToolUse, Stop), copy the demo agent file:

PowerShell:

New-Item -ItemType Directory -Force -Path .claude\agents
git clone https://github.com/shanraisshan/claude-code-hooks.git temp-hooks
Copy-Item temp-hooks\.claude\agents\claude-code-hook-agent.md .claude\agents\
Remove-Item -Recurse -Force temp-hooks

Command Prompt:

if not exist .claude\agents mkdir .claude\agents
git clone https://github.com/shanraisshan/claude-code-hooks.git temp-hooks
copy temp-hooks\.claude\agents\claude-code-hook-agent.md .claude\agents\
rmdir /S /Q temp-hooks

After copying, run the agent in Claude Code with:

/agents claude-code-hook-agent

This agent fetches the weather for Dubai and demonstrates the PreToolUse, PostToolUse, and Stop hooks in action.
