Ask support
Answers an ask with: deny. Honours ask: no. Evidence: tested (tests/test_guard_fail_to_ask.py::test_a_crashed_guard_asks_rather_than_allowing).
Hook timeout
Default 60 seconds, set by the timeout field in s.
Test status
- Repo hooks: untested. A test of the plugin says nothing about repo hooks.
- No row in the engine's list of live tests for this agent.
Known limits
Adapted (D2a): Vibe's payload is unambiguous (its snake_case hook types pre_tool, post_tool and post_agent are mapped by no other adapter, so the event name alone separates it), and its verdict is the flat_decision family's {decision: deny, reason}. A deny at pre_tool refuses the call and its reason becomes the tool error; at post_agent (the stop-like event) it asks the agent to retry, capped by Vibe at 3 retries per hook per user turn. Install writes [[hooks]] tables in Vibe's own keys: name (agentseam-<type>-<CRC-32 of the command>, unique because Vibe drops a duplicate name across files), type, match ("*" when no matcher is given, since the docs call it required at tool hooks) and command. Escalate degrades to a block: no hook verdict prompts. A transform at pre_tool is written as hook_specific_output.tool_input, which Vibe documents as a full replacement of the tool's arguments, re-validated against the tool's schema (a replacement that fails validation is denied); at post_agent a transform degrades to a block. Fail mode is configurable at pre_tool: open by default (a non-zero exit, timeout or malformed stdout warns and proceeds) and closed with strict = true, which install writes on its pre_tool rule only when called with fail_closed=True (agentseam tier-table --fail-closed reads that install). post_agent stays fail-open: Vibe rejects strict there. Project hooks load only in trusted folders, so a written config is not yet a live one. There is no prompt-submit or session event. Vibe also speaks ACP (vibe-acp), a client-agent protocol, not a hook surface; it is not claimed as one. Instruction files reach it through AGENTS.md.
