amont-agent 2.29.0

A guard that inspects a shell command before Claude Code runs it
//! Whether a skill was called recently enough to cover the command at hand.
//!
//! Read by `publish-without-skill`'s `confirm`. "Recently enough" is counted
//! in the person's prompts, not in time: the skill counts in the turn it was
//! called in and in the one human turn after it, so an answer to the skill's
//! own "confirm?" question, or a "status?" typed during its poll, does not
//! undo it. Two human prompts later it is stale.
//!
//! ## What a transcript line says, as captured 2026-10-07
//!
//! - A skill called by the model is an assistant `tool_use` with
//!   `"name":"Skill"` and `input.skill` the skill's name, plugin-qualified
//!   (`plugin:skill`) when it comes from a plugin. Claude Code follows it
//!   with a `tool_result` ("Launching skill: …") and a `user` entry carrying
//!   the skill's body with `isMeta` and `turnCompanion` set. Neither of those
//!   has an `origin`, so neither is a human prompt.
//! - A skill typed by the person is a `user` entry with
//!   `origin.kind: "human"` whose content is
//!   `<command-message>…</command-message>\n<command-name>/tag-release</command-name>`.
//!   It is both a human prompt and the skill call.
//! - Every other human prompt has `origin.kind: "human"`. Task
//!   notifications (`origin.kind: "task-notification"`), tool results,
//!   AskUserQuestion answers, `/loop` wakeups (`isMeta`, no origin),
//!   compaction summaries (`isCompactSummary`) and plugin messages
//!   (`origin.kind: "plugin"`) are not.
//! - `promptId` is NOT a turn: a task notification starts a new one.
//! - A subagent's lines live in their own file, which the hook names as
//!   `agent_transcript_path`; its `transcript_path` is the parent's. A
//!   subagent's file has no human prompt, so a skill it called counts for
//!   the rest of its run.
//!
//! Only these structured fields are read. Text inside a tool result or an
//! assistant message is never taken for a skill call or a prompt — the same
//! stance as `plan_review::completed_agents`.
