refactor(pc-run): retrofit to the ADR-0020 context contract
Description 477 -> 211 chars, body 736 -> 367 words. Install, autoupdate, and clean become flow files behind the Route table. The audit found no route for 'hooks aren't running': the only pointer to failure-patterns.md sat inside the failure path, but when hooks never fire the manual run succeeds, so the request fell to the ambiguity default and was masked. Restores the disclosure that install -f is not reversible by uninstall.

## Gotchas
|
||||
|
||||
- Hooks not running on `git commit` almost always means `pre-commit install` was never run in this clone. Git hooks are per-clone — they are not committed to the repo.
|
||||
- When a hook modifies files (e.g. `trailing-whitespace`, `end-of-file-fixer`), the commit is blocked intentionally — the staged version is stale. The fix is `git add -u && git commit`. Do NOT call `pre-commit install -f` here; that is for overwriting existing hooks, not re-staging.
|
||||
- `pre-commit autoupdate` modifies `.pre-commit-config.yaml` in-place. Re-read the file after calling it to show the user the updated `rev` values.
|
||||
- The `SKIP` env var requires exact hook `id` values, comma-separated, no spaces: `SKIP=check-yaml,gitleaks git commit -m "msg"`. A space after the comma silently skips nothing.
|
||||
- Never use `git commit --no-verify` (or `-n`) to bypass a failing hook. Hooks are the automated QA gate; bypassing them breaks the pipeline. Diagnose and fix the failure instead — see the hook-specific guidance below and in `references/failure-patterns.md`.
|
||||
- A stages mismatch — hook stage not installed — means the hook was added to the config but `pre-commit install` was not re-run with the correct `-t` flags. Hooks in stages not listed under `default_install_hook_types` will never fire.
|
||||
- The `SKIP` env var takes exact hook `id` values, comma-separated with no spaces: `SKIP=check-yaml,gitleaks git commit -m "msg"`. A space after a comma silently skips nothing instead of erroring.
|
||||
- Never bypass a failing hook with `git commit --no-verify` (or `-n`). Hooks are the automated QA gate, so a bypassed commit pushes the failure downstream where it costs more — diagnose it instead.

|
||||
|
||||
If the intent is ambiguous, default to `pre-commit run --all-files`.
|
||||
|
||||
## Run
|
||||
|
||||
Default: `pre-commit run --all-files`. Never silently run staged-only.
|
||||
Default to `pre-commit run --all-files`; never silently narrow to staged files. Run `pre-commit run` (staged only) or `pre-commit run <hook-id>` (one named hook) when the user asks for it.
|
||||
|
||||
```bash
|
||||
pre-commit run --all-files
|
||||
```
|
||||
When hooks fail:
|
||||
|
||||
**When hooks fail**, read the output and:
|
||||
1. Identify which hook failed and the specific cause. Be concrete: "gitleaks blocked `config.json` (high-entropy string on line 12)", not just "gitleaks failed".
|
||||
2. Suggest a concrete next step. Common patterns are in `references/failure-patterns.md`.
|
||||
3. Do NOT auto-fix code files. Do NOT modify `.pre-commit-config.yaml`. Those are the user's or `pc-author`'s responsibility.
|
||||
|
||||
If the user asks to run only staged files: `pre-commit run` (no `--all-files`).
|
||||
If the user names a specific hook: `pre-commit run <hook-id>`.
|
||||
|
||||
## Install
|
||||
|
||||
Only run when the user explicitly asks to install or set up hooks.
|
||||
|
||||
Before running, check for existing hook files:
|
||||
|
||||
```bash
|
||||
ls .git/hooks/
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
If any hook files exist (e.g. a hand-written `pre-commit`), `pre-commit install` does NOT refuse or error — it defaults to migration mode, which runs the existing hook and pre-commit's hooks both. Only `-f` replaces the existing hook file outright, and that replacement is not reversible via `pre-commit uninstall` — uninstall only removes pre-commit from `.git/hooks/`, it does not restore whatever hand-written hook `-f` overwrote. If files are present, tell the user: "Existing hook files found at `.git/hooks/<names>`. Plain `pre-commit install` will run both; `pre-commit install -f` will overwrite them permanently instead. Proceed with plain install, or overwrite?" Wait for confirmation before using `-f`.
|
||||
|
||||
```bash
|
||||
pre-commit install
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
Re-run with `-t` flags when `default_install_hook_types` was changed or when hooks in non-default stages aren't firing:
|
||||
|
||||
```bash
|
||||
pre-commit install -t pre-commit -t pre-push -t commit-msg
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
To pre-create all hook environments without running hooks (useful for CI warm-up or first-time setup):
|
||||
|
||||
```bash
|
||||
pre-commit install-hooks
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
To remove pre-commit from `.git/hooks/` entirely:
|
||||
|
||||
```bash
|
||||
pre-commit uninstall
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
## Autoupdate
|
||||
|
||||
```bash
|
||||
pre-commit autoupdate
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
After it completes, read `.pre-commit-config.yaml` and report which `rev` values changed. If the user wants to pin to exact SHAs (for reproducibility): `pre-commit autoupdate --freeze`.
|
||||
|
||||
## Clean and GC
|
||||
|
||||
**`gc`** — removes only unused cached environments. Safe to run at any time:
|
||||
```bash
|
||||
pre-commit gc
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
**`clean`** — wipes the entire cache at `~/.cache/pre-commit`. All hook environments will be re-downloaded on next run. Require explicit confirmation before running:
|
||||
|
||||
> "This will wipe the entire pre-commit cache. All hook environments will be re-downloaded on next run. Proceed?"
|
||||
|
||||
Wait for the user to say yes before executing:
|
||||
|
||||
```bash
|
||||
pre-commit clean
|
||||
```
|
||||
1. Name the hook and the specific cause. Be concrete — "gitleaks blocked `config.json` (high-entropy string on line 12)", not "gitleaks failed".
|
||||
2. Suggest one concrete next step. If the cause is not obvious from the output, read `references/failure-patterns.md`.
|
||||
3. Do not auto-fix code files, and do not edit `.pre-commit-config.yaml` — those belong to the user or to `pc-author`.
