Quality Gates

Purpose

Automatic quality validation at every stage of development — from individual file edits to full deployments. Quality gates catch errors early when they're cheapest to fix.

PostToolUse Hooks

The most powerful quality gate: automatic validation every time a file is edited or created.

How It Works

1. Agent uses Edit or Write to modify a file
2. PostToolUse hook fires automatically
3. Validation script detects the file type and runs the appropriate checker
4. Output is shown to the agent immediately
5. Agent sees errors and can fix them in the same session

Setting Up

The plugin includes a ready-to-use hook in hooks/hooks.json that runs scripts/post-edit-check.sh. When installed as a plugin, this works automatically.
