- * Drop the `hooks` block from a plugin entry.
- *
- * ⚠️ WHETHER `hooks` IS VALID DEPENDS ON THE OPENCLAW VERSION, and this note
- * used to state the 2026.2.x answer as a fact about OpenClaw itself.
- *
- * On 2026.2.1 it is not a key at all, and an unrecognized entry key is fatal —
- * verified by feeding a generated config through OPENCLAW_CONFIG_PATH:
- *
- *   - plugins.entries.atbash-openclaw: Unrecognized key: "hooks"
- *
- * Rejecting means refusing to load ANY config, which also makes
- * `openclaw plugins install` exit 1. But the key was ADDED later. Straight out
- * of 2026.6.6's own `openclaw config schema`, an entry accepts
- * `enabled | hooks | subagent | llm | config`, and `hooks` accepts
- * `allowPromptInjection | allowConversationAccess | timeoutMs | timeouts`.
- *
- * We still strip it and never write it, now on evidence rather than on the claim
- * above:
- *
- *  1. Nothing under `hooks` is required — the schema's `required` list is empty.
- *  2. It gates hook FAMILIES this plugin does not use. `allowConversationAccess`
- *     covers `before_agent_run`, `llm_input`, `llm_output`, `agent_end` and
- *     friends; `allowPromptInjection` covers `before_prompt_build`. The plugin
- *     registers exactly one hook, `before_tool_call`, which is in neither
- *     (verified by grepping the installed plugin, not by reading its README).
- *  3. Writing it would break every 2026.2.x machine for no gain, and those are
- *     real — the reference box for these attestations is one.
- *
- * ⚠️ RE-CHECK IF THE PLUGIN EVER ADDS A SECOND HOOK. The schema says
- * "Non-bundled plugins must opt in explicitly", so a new conversation-reading
- * hook would be silently denied on 2026.6.6+ with no config error to notice: the
- * plugin would load, still gate tool calls, and quietly see nothing else.

- * The one hook permission worth WRITING: deny this plugin prompt mutation.

- * WHY THIS IS NOT DECORATION. `allowPromptInjection` DEFAULTS TO ALLOWED for

- * ("It defaults to allowed") — so without this key the guard holds permission to
- * mutate prompts via `before_prompt_build`, `agent_turn_prepare`,
- * `heartbeat_prompt_contribution` and durable next-turn injections. It uses none
- * of them: it registers exactly one hook, `before_tool_call`.
- *
- * The gate is enforced by OPENCLAW, not by the plugin, so the denial holds even
- * if the plugin or one of its dependencies is compromised — and it bundles a
- * fair few (`@atbash/sdk`, the whole `@opentelemetry` tree). A guard being
- * visibly constrained by the runtime it guards is the right posture, and it is
- * auditable: someone reading the config can see the boundary stops at tool calls.
- *
- * ⚠️ It does NOT affect `before_tool_call` — "No conversation-access opt-in is
- * needed for `before_tool_call`", and this gate covers prompt-mutation hooks
- * only. There is no functional risk to what the plugin actually does.
- *
- * ⚠️ AND WE DELIBERATELY DO NOT WRITE `allowConversationAccess: false`. That one
- * already defaults to denied ("Non-bundled plugins must opt in explicitly"), so
- * writing it changes nothing — and writing keys that change nothing is exactly
- * the habit that produced this file's worst bugs: the entry schema is
- * `additionalProperties: false`, so every key we write is a liability we then own
