adom/hook

Registry-native, cross-agent auto-update. Keeps your adom/core apps and skills current from wiki.adom.inc automatically, on every Claude Code and Codex prompt. No git, no private repository.

Why

The old update path fetched a private GitHub repo on every prompt. That works for insiders but cannot be shared, and it only runs under Claude. This hook checks the public registry instead, so it works for any user and any agent.

How it works

A throttled, bounded check (adom-wiki outdated, ~every 30 min). When an installed package is behind the registry, it applies the update in the background and drops a one-line note into the model's context. It never blocks your prompt.

Two triggers are wired, sharing one throttle stamp (so a double fire is a no-op):

If the image has no crontab (or crond isn't running), install says so; have the app call ~/.adom/hooks/adom-core-update.sh on its own interval instead (throttled

• idempotent, safe to call often).

Under cron, stdout goes to mail or /dev/null, so the durable record is ~/.adom/last-update.status (running, or the last exit code) and ~/.adom/last-update.log.

One pass updates everything installed, not just adom/core's tree:

The CLI is not a separate self-updating layer: there is no automatic self-update and no CLI timer. adom-wiki self-update is a manual fallback for the one case the package path cannot handle (the atomic binary swap failing with ETXTBSY). If this hook is broken, the CLI goes stale along with everything else.

Components are out of scope: they are wiki content you reference, not packages you install.

Install

adom-wiki install adom/hook

adom/core already depends on it, so a normal bootstrap wires it for you.

Controls

Uninstall

adom-wiki uninstall adom/hook

Unwires the hook from both ~/.claude/settings.json and ~/.codex/hooks.json.
