Library Usage

import { preToolUse, postToolUse, runHook, expectAllow, expectDeny } from 'tool-mock'

// Build a mock payload
const payload = preToolUse('Read', { file_path: '/etc/passwd' })

// Run a hook against it
const response = await runHook('~/.claude/hooks/my-hook.sh', payload)

// Assert the decision
expectDeny(response.unwrap())

CLI

# Generate payloads
tool-mock payload pre Read --input '{"file_path":"/etc/passwd"}'
tool-mock payload post Bash --input '{"command":"cat .env"}' --response 'SECRET=abc'

# Run a scenario file
tool-mock run scenario.json
