+# PKM Hook System
+
+Claude Code hooks that enable automatic knowledge capture during coding sessions.
+
+## Overview
+
+The hook system consists of three hooks:
+
+| Hook | Event | Purpose |
+|------|-------|---------|
+| `session-start.js` | SessionStart | Loads project context from the vault at the start of each session |
+| `stop-sweep.sh` | Stop | Passive capture: scans the latest exchange for PKM-worthy content |
+| `capture-handler.sh` | PostToolUse | Explicit capture: creates structured vault notes when `vault_capture` is called |
+
+### How it works
+
+- **SessionStart** (`session-start.js`): Runs synchronously. Resolves the current working directory to a vault project, reads the project index, recent devlog entries, and active tasks, then injects them as context.
+- **Stop** (`stop-sweep.sh`): Runs asynchronously after each assistant response. Spawns a background `claude -p` (Haiku) that reads the transcript, identifies decisions/tasks/findings from the latest exchange, and appends them to a daily captures file in `00-Inbox/`.
+- **PostToolUse** (`capture-handler.sh`): Runs asynchronously after `vault_capture` tool use. Spawns a background `claude -p` (Sonnet) that creates a properly structured vault note (ADR, task, research note, or troubleshooting log) from the capture payload.
+
+## Setup
+
+### Prerequisites
+
+- [Claude CLI](https://docs.anthropic.com/en/docs/claude-cli) installed and authenticated
+- This repository cloned locally
+- An Obsidian vault following the [vault structure convention](../CLAUDE.md#vault-structure-convention)
+
+### Configuration
+
+Add the following to your `~/.claude/settings.json`:
+
+```json
+{
+  "hooks": {
+    "SessionStart": [
+      {
+        "matcher": "startup|clear|compact",
+        "hooks": [
+          {
+            "type": "command",
+            "command": "VAULT_PATH=\"/path/to/your/vault\" node /path/to/Obsidian-MCP/hooks/session-start.js",
+            "timeout": 15,
+            "statusMessage": "Loading PKM project context..."
+          }
+        ]
+      }
+    ],
+    "Stop": [
+      {
+        "hooks": [
+          {
+            "type": "command",
+            "command": "VAULT_PATH=\"/path/to/your/vault\" /path/to/Obsidian-MCP/hooks/stop-sweep.sh",
+            "async": true,
+            "timeout": 10
+          }
+        ]
+      }
+    ],
+    "PostToolUse": [
+      {
+        "matcher": "mcp__obsidian-pkm__vault_capture",
+        "hooks": [
+          {
+            "type": "command",
+            "command": "VAULT_PATH=\"/path/to/your/vault\" /path/to/Obsidian-MCP/hooks/capture-handler.sh",
+            "async": true,
+            "timeout": 10
+          }
+        ]
+      }
+    ]
+  }
+}
+```
+
+Replace `/path/to/your/vault` with the absolute path to your Obsidian vault (e.g., `~/Documents/PKM`), and `/path/to/Obsidian-MCP` with the absolute path to this repository.
+
+## Architecture Notes
+
+### Command hooks with background subprocesses
+
+The hook system uses `type: "command"` hooks (not `type: "agent"`). The shell scripts themselves exit quickly (within the configured timeout), but they spawn `claude -p` as a detached background process via `nohup ... &`. This means:
+
+- The hook script exits immediately, satisfying the timeout constraint
+- The `claude -p` process continues running independently, doing the actual vault work
+- `--max-turns` limits how many tool calls the background process can make (5 for stop-sweep, 25 for capture-handler)
+
+### MCP config resolution
+
+The shell scripts use `cd "$(dirname "$0")" && pwd -P` to resolve their own location, then construct the path to `index.js` relative to the script directory. This means the scripts work regardless of the current working directory. The `VAULT_PATH` environment variable must be set in the hook command because hook scripts run outside the MCP server process.
+
+### Async behavior
+
+Both `stop-sweep.sh` and `capture-handler.sh` use `async: true` in the hook config. This means Claude Code does not wait for the hook script to finish before continuing. The script starts, spawns the background `claude -p` process, and exits. The background process runs to completion on its own.
+
+### Noise suppression and deduplication
+
+The stop-sweep hook is conservative by design. It only looks at the last exchange (one user message + one assistant response) and skips trivial interactions. If the exchange already contains an explicit `vault_capture` call, the stop-sweep skips that content to avoid duplication with the capture-handler.
+
+## Troubleshooting
+
+### Hook not firing
+
+- Verify the hook config is valid JSON in `~/.claude/settings.json`
+- Check that the `matcher` pattern matches (SessionStart uses `"startup|clear|compact"`, PostToolUse uses the full MCP tool name)
+- Ensure the script paths are absolute
+
+### Script errors
+
+- Check that `VAULT_PATH` is set correctly and the directory exists
+- Verify `node` is available in the hook's PATH
+- Test the script manually: `echo '{"cwd":"/tmp","transcript_path":"/tmp/test","session_id":"abc123"}' | VAULT_PATH="/path/to/vault" ./hooks/stop-sweep.sh`
+
+### Background process not running
+
+- Check for `claude` CLI in PATH
+- Look for `claude -p` processes: `ps aux | grep 'claude -p'`
+- Test `claude -p` directly: `echo "say hello" | claude -p --model sonnet`
+- Check logs in `$VAULT_PATH/.obsidian/hook-logs/` for background process output
+
+### macOS compatibility
+
+The scripts use POSIX-compatible `cd "$(dirname "$0")" && pwd -P` for path resolution, so they work on both Linux and macOS without additional dependencies.

+1. Create the note with vault_write using the appropriate template:

+   - adr → template 'adr', path: 01-Projects/{project}/development/decisions/ADR-NNN-{kebab-title}.md (use vault_list to get next number)
+   - task → template 'task', path: 01-Projects/{project}/tasks/{kebab-title}.md (vault_query first to check for duplicates)
+   - bug → template 'troubleshooting-log', path: 01-Projects/{project}/development/debug/{kebab-title}.md
+   If vault_write fails because the file exists, use a different filename.
+
+2. Read the created note with vault_read.
+
+3. Use vault_edit to replace EVERY template placeholder with real content derived from the Title and Content above. For example, replace 'Brief description of the technology, tool, or concept.' with an actual description. Do this for EACH section — you will need multiple vault_edit calls.
+
+4. Read the note one final time to confirm no placeholder text remains.

+PROMPT="You are a PKM passive capture agent. Your job is to identify decisions, task changes, and research findings from the most recent conversation exchange and append them to the vault staging inbox.
+
+## Transcript
+
+Read the file at: $TRANSCRIPT_PATH
+
+Find the LAST user message and LAST assistant message at the end of the file — these are the current exchange. One exchange = one contiguous user message + one contiguous assistant response (the last complete turn pair). All prior messages are historical context only. Do NOT capture anything from prior messages.
+
+## What to Capture
+
+1. **Decisions**: Technical or architectural choices that were AGREED upon (not proposed, not still being discussed)
+2. **Task changes**: New tasks identified, tasks completed, priority changes, blockers discovered
+3. **Research findings**: Patterns discovered, library behaviors documented, gotchas found
+
+## Noise Suppression
+
+Be conservative. Skip: trivial exchanges, clarification Q&A that hasn't resolved, implementation details obvious from code, anything restating existing project context. When in doubt, don't capture.
+
+## Deduplication
+
+If the assistant message in the current exchange contains a vault_capture tool call, the content of that capture is already being handled by the explicit capture agent. Do NOT also capture it in the staging inbox — skip it to avoid semantic duplication.
+
+## Output
+
+If you find PKM-worthy content, use vault_append to add entries to 00-Inbox/captures-${TODAY}.md. If the file doesn't exist, create it first with vault_write (template: fleeting-note, tags: [capture, auto]). Each entry format:
+
+## ${NOW} — {Category}: {Title}
+
+{1-3 sentence description}
+
+**Source:** ${PROJECT_NAME}, session ${SESSION_SHORT}
+
+---
+
+If nothing is PKM-worthy, do nothing."
