Previously, I wrote a whole blog post on Claude Code hooks to address a small portion of the problems Claude had with running pwsh commands. Excited to see this!

pwsh on Claude Code was such a specific pain. half the errors were just path separators and the other half were cmdlet aliases that don't exist on core. hooks feel like the right layer for that

I wonder how much of my token usage went to all the little corrective statements I had to use.

I just started using Claude at work. I told it to act like Tig Notaro as Jett Reno and figure out MongoDB for me because I am too busy for that shit.

it did! claude found the two control commands embedded way down in the data that nothing else could find, start of text and vertical tab. fine in mongo but makes java explode.

pwsh edge cases are brutal. Claude's execution model works well for most scenarios, but the subprocess abstraction breaks down with PowerShell's expression language. Your hooks approach is solid: the alternative is shipping a full DSL translator. What tripped you up most?
