Hook Behavior

post-commit

Runs after each commit. Currently displays a reminder about linking:

Commit created: a1b2c3d

To link an AI session to this commit:
  lore link <session-id>

Recent sessions:
  c9731a91  2025-12-25 17:52  claude-code  myapp
  8b2f1c3d  2025-12-25 16:30  aider        myapp

prepare-commit-msg

Runs before the commit message editor opens. Can add session references to commit messages.

Checking Status

If hooks exist from other tools, Lore will warn before overwriting:

Warning: post-commit hook already exists
  Current: #!/bin/bash\nhusky run...

Overwrite? [y/N]

Manual Linking

You can also link sessions manually without hooks:

# Link to HEAD
lore link <session-id>

# Link to specific commit
lore link <session-id> --commit a1b2c3d

Per-Repository

Hooks are installed per-repository, not globally. Run lore hooks install in each repository where you want automatic linking prompts.
