Trust Model

These hooks run with your full shell privileges, like any other Claude Code hook.

What they do: read .md and .tsv files under .claude/jit-context/, read the JSON that Claude Code pipes to them on stdin, write a timing log under .claude/jit-context/.discovery/logs/, and write session marker files under .claude/jit-context/.discovery/state/.

What they never do: make network requests, execute anything from a rule file, or write outside those two locations. A rule file is injected as text; it is never evaluated.

Two things worth knowing:

  • Rule content becomes model context. Anyone who can write to .claude/jit-context/ can put text in front of your agent on the next matching prompt. Treat that directory with the same review discipline as CLAUDE.md — in practice, review rule files in pull requests like any other code.
  • block mode is a guardrail, not a security boundary. It stops a tool call that matches a pattern. It is there to catch mistakes, not to contain an adversary.

Session markers live in .claude/jit-context/.discovery/state/, named for the session_id of the session that wrote them. They hold entry filenames, never content. Up to 0.3.0 they were /tmp/claude-*-shown-$PPID.txt, which was world-readable on a shared machine and keyed on a pid the OS recycles — two unrelated sessions could suppress each other entries, including a refusal notice. They are no longer in a shared directory, and nothing this plugin runs deletes a file outside the project it was invoked for.
