## Context
|
||||
|
||||
The hooks subsystem (stack PR-A…PR-F) runs external hook commands the way Claude Code and Codex do: a hook is a shell command that receives its event payload as **JSON on stdin** and reads context from a handful of **environment variables** (`CLAUDE_PROJECT_DIR`, `CLAUDE_PLUGIN_ROOT`, `PLUGIN_ROOT`, …). The harness already has a perfectly good command runner behind the `ctx.bash` capability seam ([dsh-bash](../../../../packages/bash/bash) → [dsh-bash-local](../../../../packages/bash/bash-local)), with process-group kills, output truncation/spill, and a credential scrub. Reusing it for hook execution means the bridges do not re-implement subprocess plumbing — but the seam had no way to write stdin or set extra env.

The friction is that those two inputs are **dangerous in exactly the way the seam was built to prevent**. [dsh-bash-local](../../../../packages/bash/bash-local)'s `childEnv()` deliberately scrubs `*KEY*`/`*SECRET*`/`*TOKEN*` from the child environment so the harness's own `DEEPSEEK_API_KEY` cannot leak into model-driven command output (see [AGENTS.md](../../../../AGENTS.md) § Defensive patterns, "Never hand untrusted/model output the ambient environment or predictable paths"). An arbitrary-env / arbitrary-stdin capability is the opposite of that guarantee. So the question this RFC answers is not "can we add stdin/env" — it is "who is allowed to use them, and how is that boundary enforced".

## Consequences
|
||||
|
||||
The hooks bridges (PR-F) build a `BashExecRequest` with the hook's JSON payload as `stdin` and its `CLAUDE_*`/`PLUGIN_ROOT` vars as `env`, and run it through the same `ctx.bash` everything else uses — no bespoke subprocess code, and the full process-group-kill / truncation / spill machinery for free. The model-facing attack surface is unchanged: the consumer's request-building is the single boundary, guarded by a test that fails if it regresses. The vocabulary addition is documented in [docs/core-data-structures/bash.md](../../../core-data-structures/bash.md) (the `type-equiv` request/spec blocks) and the three bash-package READMEs; the trusted-plugin rule mirrors the existing scrub/predictable-path discipline in [AGENTS.md](../../../../AGENTS.md) § Defensive patterns.
