fix(governance): add architectural enforcement for "ff" and "ffs" trigger words
Problem: Claude failed to recognize "ffs" code word despite inst_082 being active. Root cause: No architectural enforcement to check for trigger words on every user message. Solution: - Created .claude/hooks/trigger-word-checker.js that runs on UserPromptSubmit - Detects "ffs" → instructs to run framework-stats.js (inst_082) - Detects "ff " prefix → instructs to run framework-audit-response.js (inst_078) - Registered hook in .claude/settings.json Testing: ✅ "ffs" detection works correctly ✅ "ff " prefix detection works correctly ✅ Normal messages pass through silently Philosophy: Governance enforced architecturally, not by voluntary compliance. 🤖 Generated with [Claude Code](https://claude.com/claude-code) Co-Authored-By: Claude <noreply@anthropic.com>

# Trigger Word Enforcement Architecture
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
## Problem
|
||||||
|
Claude failed to recognize "ffs" code word despite inst_082 being active. This was a **trigger recognition failure**, not a missing instruction issue.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
## Root Cause
|
||||||
|
- inst_082 (ffs trigger) exists and is marked active: true
|
||||||
|
- inst_078 (ff trigger) exists and is marked active: true
|
||||||
|
- Both are HIGH persistence, SYSTEM quadrant
|
||||||
|
- scripts/framework-stats.js and scripts/framework-audit-response.js both exist
|
||||||
|
- **BUT**: No architectural enforcement to ensure Claude checks for trigger words on EVERY user message
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
## Solution
|
||||||
|
Created `.claude/hooks/trigger-word-checker.js` that runs on every user prompt submission:
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
```javascript
|
||||||
|
// Detects:
|
||||||
|
// - "ffs" (exact match or word boundary) → framework-stats.js
|
||||||
|
// - "ff " (prefix) → framework-audit-response.js
|
||||||
|
```
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
Registered in `.claude/settings.json`:
|
||||||
|
```json
|
||||||
|
"UserPromptSubmit": [
|
||||||
|
{
|
||||||
|
"hooks": [
|
||||||
|
{
|
||||||
|
"type": "command",
|
||||||
|
"command": "\"$CLAUDE_PROJECT_DIR\"/.claude/hooks/trigger-word-checker.js",
|
||||||
|
"timeout": 2
|
||||||
|
}
|
||||||
|
]
|
||||||
|
}
|
||||||
|
]
|
||||||
|
```
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
## How It Works
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
1. **User types "ffs"**
|
||||||
|
2. Hook runs BEFORE Claude processes the message
|
||||||
|
3. Hook outputs: `⚠️ CODE WORD DETECTED: "ffs"`
|
||||||
|
4. Hook provides instruction: `Claude MUST run: node scripts/framework-stats.js`
|
||||||
|
5. Claude sees the hook output and executes the command
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
## Testing
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
```bash
|
||||||
|
# Test ffs trigger
|
||||||
|
node .claude/hooks/trigger-word-checker.js '{"text":"ffs"}'
|
||||||
|
# Output: ⚠️ CODE WORD DETECTED: "ffs"
|
||||||
|
# Claude MUST run: node scripts/framework-stats.js
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
# Test ff trigger
|
||||||
|
node .claude/hooks/trigger-word-checker.js '{"text":"ff what are the boundary rules?"}'
|
||||||
|
# Output: ⚠️ CODE WORD DETECTED: "ff"
|
||||||
|
# Claude MUST run: node scripts/framework-audit-response.js --prompt "..." --type "boundary_question"
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
# Test normal message (no output)
|
||||||
|
node .claude/hooks/trigger-word-checker.js '{"text":"please fix the bug"}'
|
||||||
|
# (silent - no trigger detected)
|
||||||
|
```
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
## Philosophy
|
||||||
|
**Governance is enforced architecturally, not documented.**
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
Relying on voluntary compliance (Claude remembering to check for triggers) = framework fade.
|
||||||
|
Architectural enforcement (hook that runs on EVERY message) = reliable governance.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
## Files Modified
|
||||||
|
- `.claude/hooks/trigger-word-checker.js` - New hook script
|
||||||
|
- `.claude/settings.json` - Registered UserPromptSubmit hook
|
||||||

## Future Enhancements
|
||||||
|
If Claude Code doesn't support UserPromptSubmit hooks natively:
|
||||||
|
1. Add to session-init.js output as prominent reminder
|
||||||
|
2. Create a PreToolUse hook that checks user's last message
|
||||||
|
3. Add to system prompt injection if hook system insufficient
