Subagents Hooks Claude Code by Stallard Smith (6 results)

Taschenbuch. Condition: Neu. Neuware.

Paperback. Condition: new. Paperback. What if the hours you're losing aren't a skill problem - they're a setup problem?You already know how to code. You've been doing it for years. So why does a session that should take forty minutes somehow consume an entire afternoon - the model confidently going in circles, you re-explaining context you already explained an hour ago, the fix that looked done turning out not to be? Why does the PR you finally open come back with the same categories of feedback it always comes back with - the formatting nit, the missed edge case, the "did you run the linter?" - as if nothing upstream of the review has changed at all?And why, when you watch certain engineers work, does everything just move - clean diffs, tight reviews, sessions that end with something actually shipped instead of something almost shipped?It's not talent. It's not a better model. It's a different relationship with the tool.The engineers shipping twice as fast aren't prompting more cleverly. They've built something underneath the prompting - a layer of hooks that make certain categories of mistake structurally impossible, subagents that do the expensive investigative work in their own isolated context without poisoning yours, a PR pipeline that runs three independent code reviews in parallel before a human ever opens the diff. Their setup is doing work while they think. Yours is waiting.This book closes that gap.Not with theory. With the exact configuration - the YAML, the Bash scripts, the settings blocks, the subagent definitions - that turns Claude Code from an impressive demo into infrastructure you'd trust with a production deploy. Every tool allowlist is explained by the blast radius it controls. Every hook is built from the failure it prevents. Every chapter ends with you holding something that runs, not something to think about.There's a concept called context rot - the quiet degradation inside a long AI session where the model has accumulated so much noise that the answer at token 80,000 is measurably worse than the one at token 8,000. You've felt it. That "off" feeling near the end of a session, the fix that seemed solid and wasn't, the investigation that read twelve files and somehow missed the one that mattered. This book names it, explains exactly why it happens, and gives you the mechanical tools to stop it before it starts.By the time you reach the final chapter, you won't just understand how Claude Code works. You'll have a version-controlled .claude/ directory, a hook set that enforces what CLAUDE.md can only request, and a PR pipeline that means the feedback your colleagues leave is the kind that actually needed a human - not the kind a script could have caught at 3am without being asked.The sessions that used to cost you an afternoon will cost you forty minutes. The PRs that used to come back twice will go out right the first time. The work that used to need your full attention will need your judgment - which is the part that was always worth paying for.The setup exists. You just haven't built it yet.For engineers who are done being impressed by AI and ready to be productive with it. This item is printed on demand.
