// GSD Read Guard — PreToolUse hook
// Injects advisory guidance when Write/Edit targets an existing file,
// reminding the model to Read the file first.
//
// Background: Non-Claude models (e.g. MiniMax M2.5 on OpenCode) don't
// natively follow the read-before-edit pattern. When they attempt to
// Write/Edit an existing file without reading it, the runtime rejects
// with "You must read file before overwriting it." The model retries
// without reading, creating an infinite loop that burns through usage.
//
// This hook prevents that loop by injecting clear guidance BEFORE the
// tool call reaches the runtime. The model sees the advisory and can
// issue a Read call on the next turn.
//
// Triggers on: Write and Edit tool calls
// Action: Advisory (does not block) — injects read-first guidance
// Only fires when the target file already exists on disk.

    // Claude Code natively enforces read-before-edit — skip the advisory (#1984, #2344, #2520).
    //
    // Detection signals, in priority order:
    //   1. `data.session_id` on the hook's stdin payload — part of Claude
    //      Code's documented PreToolUse hook-input schema, always present.
    //      Reliable across Claude Code versions because it's schema, not env.
    //   2. `CLAUDE_CODE_ENTRYPOINT` / `CLAUDE_CODE_SSE_PORT` — env vars that
    //      Claude Code does propagate to hook subprocesses (verified on
    //      Claude Code CLI 2.1.116).
    //   3. `CLAUDE_SESSION_ID` / `CLAUDECODE` — kept for back-compat and in
    //      case future Claude Code versions propagate them to hook
    //      subprocesses. On 2.1.116 they reach Bash tool subprocesses but
    //      not hook subprocesses, which is why checking them alone is
    //      insufficient (regression of #2344 fixed here as #2520).
