How do you add a Claude Code hook that notifies you, formats an edit, or blocks a command?

A Claude Code hook runs a shell command at a fixed moment: a desktop notification when Claude is waiting, Prettier after an Edit or Write, or a PreToolUse check before a tool call. Exit code 2 blocks events that can block, including PreToolUse. On PostToolUse it only shows stderr after the tool has already run, and PermissionRequest and Notification ignore it. Exit 0 with JSON is structured control for that event — allow, deny, ask, or block — and exit 0 alone leaves a PreToolUse call in the normal permission flow.

How much does Claude Code cost, and which login bills you?

Claude Code is included on every paid Claude plan and marked No on Free. Subscription stickers sit on claude.com/pricing. A Console login bills per million tokens at Anthropic’s API list rates. Amazon Bedrock, Google Cloud’s Agent Platform, and Microsoft Foundry bill the cloud account per token; these pages do not publish those clouds’ token prices. The bill follows the credential you signed in with.
