Collapse the per-language hook tables in pc-author's hooks-by-language.md into one shared-repo table plus an "other repos" table, dropping the repeated repo/rev/rationale text that just restated what each hook does. 128 -> 92 lines. Kept both "Unverified — not in research corpus" flags and the rev-freshness caveat. Remove the generic SSH/proxy CI failure sections, the shellcheck SC-code listing, and compress the generic validate-config schema-error bullets in pc-run's failure-patterns.md, all of which just restated pre-commit.com's own docs. 133 -> 109 lines. Kept the rtk-prefixed re-stage/recommit fix (ADR-0023), the "do NOT reach for `pre-commit install -f`" warning, and both gitleaks/shellcheck not-sourced-from-corpus notes. Combined cut: 60 lines. Flat mirrors regenerated via scripts/sync-plugin-content.sh and verified byte-identical (--check exits 0); no plugin.json drift.

# Hook Recommendations by Language / Context
|
|
|
|
Use this table when creating a config from scratch or recommending hooks to add.
|
|
Always check the existing config for duplicates before proposing.
|
|
|
|
Fixer hooks (`trailing-whitespace`, `end-of-file-fixer`, `pretty-format-json` and the like) rewrite
|
|
files but do NOT re-stage them, so the commit is still blocked and the user has to stage and commit
|
|
again. Say so when proposing one — otherwise the first blocked commit reads as the hook being
|
|
broken.
|
|
|
|
## `pre-commit/pre-commit-hooks` (rev `v6.0.0`)
|
|
|
|
| Hook ID | Language / Context |
|
|
|---------|---------------------|
|
|
| `end-of-file-fixer` | Universal |
|
|
| `trailing-whitespace` | Universal |
|
|
| `check-merge-conflict` | Universal |
|
|
| `detect-private-key` | Universal |
|
|
| `check-added-large-files` | Universal |
|
|
| `check-case-conflict` | Universal |
|
|
| `mixed-line-ending` | Universal |
|
|
| `no-commit-to-branch` | Universal — defaults to blocking `main`+`master` with no args; add `args: [--branch, <name>]` only to protect additional branch names |
|
|
| `check-ast` | Python (`.py`) |
|
|
| `check-builtin-literals` | Python (`.py`) |
|
|
| `check-json` | JSON (`.json`) |
|
|
| `pretty-format-json` | JSON (`.json`) |
|
|
| `check-yaml` | YAML (`.yaml`, `.yml`) — for Kubernetes/Helm with custom tags add `args: ['--unsafe']` and `exclude: ^helm/templates/` |
|
|
| `check-toml` | TOML (`.toml`) |
|
|
|
|
Full repo URL: `https://github.com/pre-commit/pre-commit-hooks`. For Python formatting, check if `black`, `ruff`, or `isort` is already configured in `pyproject.toml` before recommending them.
|
|
|
|
## Other repos
|
|
|
|
| Hook ID | Repo | Rev | Notes |
|
|
|---------|------|-----|-------|
|
|
| `shellcheck` | `https://github.com/jumanjihouse/pre-commit-hooks` | `3.0.0` | **Unverified — not in research corpus, verify upstream before use.** Recommended args: `args: [--severity=warning]` |
|
|
| `gitleaks` | `https://github.com/gitleaks/gitleaks` | `v8.30.1` | **Unverified — not in research corpus, verify upstream before use.** |
|
|
| `conventional-pre-commit` | `https://github.com/compilerla/conventional-pre-commit` | `v2.4.0` | Stage `commit-msg`; also add `default_install_hook_types: [pre-commit, commit-msg]` to the top-level config if not already present |
|
|
|
|
## Meta-validation (add last, after all other repos)
|
|
|
|
```yaml
|
|
- repo: meta
|
|
hooks:
|
|
- id: check-hooks-apply # catches hooks that match no files
|
|
- id: check-useless-excludes # catches exclude patterns that match no files
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
## Local hooks (repo: local)
|
|
|
|
Use for repo-specific scripts that don't belong in an external hook repo.
|
|
|
|
```yaml
|
|
- repo: local
|
|
hooks:
|
|
- id: run-tests
|
|
name: Run test suite
|
|
entry: bash tests/run-tests.sh
|
|
language: unsupported_script
|
|
pass_filenames: false
|
|
always_run: true
|
|
stages: [pre-push]
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
`language: system` and `language: script` are deprecated names for the first two below.
|
|
New local hooks use `unsupported` and `unsupported_script`.
|
|
|
|
Language choices for local hooks:
|
|
- `unsupported` — system PATH tool (pre-commit does not manage env)
|
|
- `unsupported_script` — script at a repo-relative path
|
|
- `fail` — always-fail guard; `entry` text becomes the error message
|
|
- `python` — isolated venv; use `additional_dependencies` for pip packages
|
|
- `node` — isolated node env; `additional_dependencies` are npm packages
|
|
- `ruby` — isolated gem env; `additional_dependencies` are gems
|
|
- `golang` — builds from source; `additional_dependencies` are Go module paths
|
|
- `rust` — Cargo build
|
|
- `docker` — Docker image built from `entry`; use when no other language fits
|
|
- `docker_image` — pulls a pre-built Docker image by `entry`
|
|
- `conda` — Conda environment; conda-native hooks
|
|
- `coursier` — Coursier (Scala/JVM) environment; JVM hooks
|
|
|
|
## Rev pin freshness
|
|
|
|
The revs above were last verified current at time of writing (matched against the plugin's own research corpus in `docs/research/docs/pre-commit/`; rows marked "Unverified" have no such backing and must be checked against upstream before use). Since the "Rev staleness" check in `references/modify-config.md` treats these tables as ground truth, a pin that goes stale here produces false-positive staleness warnings for users who already have a newer, correct rev. Re-verify these pins periodically (e.g. against each repo's latest release tag). When in doubt, treat `pre-commit autoupdate`'s own output as the authoritative staleness signal, not a mismatch against these tables.
