Input
The user provides: $ARGUMENTS
This may be:
- "full" or empty (default: run all diagnostics)
- "install" to check hook installation only
- "connectivity" to check dashboard connectivity only
- "events" to check event delivery only
Procedure
Run diagnostic checks in this order:
1. Hook Installation Check
Verify hooks are installed in Claude Code settings:
# Check if hooks exist in Claude Code settings
cat ~/.claude/settings.json | jq '.hooks // empty'
Verify:
- All 7 expected hook types are registered:
PreToolUse,PostToolUse,Stop,SubagentStop,Notification,SessionStart,SessionEnd - Hook commands point to the correct handler script path
- Handler script exists and is readable at the configured path
2. Dashboard Connectivity
Test that the dashboard API is reachable:
curl -sf http://localhost:4820/api/health
Verify:
- Dashboard responds with 200 OK
- Response includes expected health fields
- WebSocket endpoint is accessible
3. Hook Handler Validation
Check the hook handler script:
# Verify handler exists and is executable
ls -la <handler-path>
# Syntax check
node --check <handler-path>
4. Event Delivery Test
Send a test event and verify it arrives:
echo '{"hook_type":"test","session_id":"diag-test","data":{}}' | \
curl -sf -X POST http://localhost:4820/api/hooks/event \
-H 'Content-Type: application/json' -d @-
5. Database Check
Verify the database is writable and events are persisted:
curl -sf http://localhost:4820/api/stats
curl -sf http://localhost:4820/api/events?limit=5
6. Recent Event Flow
Check if events are flowing:
- Time since last event received
- Events received in last hour
- Any gaps in event delivery
