## What it is
ghooks is an npm package that manages git hooks for JavaScript projects by letting you define hook commands in your package. config. It installs git hooks automatically as a dev dependency and runs the configured commands on events like pre-commit, commit-msg, and pre-push.

## Use cases
- run linting before every commit
- validate commit messages with commit-msg hooks
- run tests before pushing to remote
- automatically npm install after merge or rebase
- configure git hooks declaratively in package.
- make git hooks opt-in or opt-out for contributors

## When to choose
- you have a Node.js project and want simple, zero-config git hooks managed via package.
- you want hooks installed automatically for everyone who runs npm install
- you need common hooks like pre-commit, pre-push, and commit-msg without shell scripting

## When to avoid
- your project is not JavaScript/Node.js based
- you need actively maintained tooling - consider husky or modern alternatives
- you need complex hook logic beyond simple shell commands
- you must install hooks globally or outside a package. project

## Facets
- artifact type: library

- function: developer-tools, cli, configuration-management
- domain: developer-tools, version-control
