ROOT CAUSE: hooks load plugin-hook-bootstrap.js via
`node -e "...; process.argv.splice(1,0,s); require(s)"`. On Node 21+,
require.main is `undefined` under --eval, so the `if (require.main === module)`
guard was false and main() never ran — every plugin hook silently no-op'd
(e.g. the MCP-health PreToolUse hook stopped blocking). CI (Node 18/20) hid
this; it only surfaces on Node 21+. Fix: also run main() when require.main is
undefined (the eval-bootstrap case), while staying dormant on real imports.
Also clears pre-existing main debt the full local suite enforces:
- catalog:sync — README/docs agent+skill counts drifted after recent merges
- tests/ci/supply-chain-watch-workflow: update checkout SHA to the merged v6.0.3 (#2183)
- markdownlint + check-unicode-safety --write across docs/skills
Suite: 2683/2683 green under Node v25; lint + unicode clean.

* fix: resolve Claude Code Bash hook "cannot execute binary file" on Windows
Root cause in ~/.claude/settings.local.json (user-global):
1. UTF-8 BOM + CRLF line endings left by patch_settings_cl_v2_simple.ps1
2. Double-wrapped command "\"bash.exe\" \"wrapper.sh\"" broke Windows
argument splitting on the space in "Program Files", making bash.exe
try to execute itself as a script.
Fix:
- Rewrite settings.local.json as UTF-8 (no BOM), LF, with the hook command
pointing directly at observe-wrapper.sh and passing "pre"/"post" as a
positional arg so HOOK_PHASE is populated correctly in observe.sh.
Docs:
- docs/fixes/HOOK-FIX-20260421.md — full root-cause analysis.
- docs/fixes/apply-hook-fix.sh — idempotent applier script.
* docs: addendum for HOOK-FIX-20260421 (v2.1.116 argv duplication detail)
- Documents Claude Code v2.1.116 argv duplication bug as the underlying
cause of the bash.exe:bash.exe:cannot execute binary file error
- Records night-session fix variant using explicit `bash <path>` prefix
(matches hooks.json observer pattern, avoids EFTYPE on Node spawn)
- Keeps morning commit 527c18b intact; both variants are now documented

`ConvertFrom-Json -AsHashtable` is PowerShell 7+ only, and the Windows 11
reference machine used to validate this PR ships with Windows PowerShell
5.1 only (no `pwsh` on PATH). Without this follow-up, running the
installer on stock Windows fails at the parse step and leaves the
installation half-applied.
- Fall back to a manual `PSCustomObject` -> `Hashtable` conversion when
`-AsHashtable` raises, so the script parses the existing
settings.local.json on both PS 5.1 and PS 7+.
- Normalize both hook buckets (`PreToolUse`, `PostToolUse`) and their
inner `hooks` arrays as `System.Collections.ArrayList` before
serialization. PS 5.1 `ConvertTo-Json` otherwise collapses
single-element arrays into bare objects, which breaks the canonical
PR #1524 shape.
- Create the `skills/continuous-learning/hooks` destination directory
when it does not exist yet, and emit a clearer error if
settings.local.json is missing entirely.
- Update `INSTALL-HOOK-WRAPPER-FIX-20260422.md` to document the PS 5.1
compatibility guarantee and to cross-link PR #1542 (companion simple
patcher).
Verified on Windows 11 / Windows PowerShell 5.1.26100.8115 by running
`powershell -NoProfile -ExecutionPolicy Bypass -File
docs/fixes/install_hook_wrapper.ps1` against a sandbox `$env:USERPROFILE`
and against the real settings.local.json. Both produce the canonical
PR #1524 shape with LF-only output.
- Use PATH-resolved `bash` as first token instead of quoted `.exe` path
so Claude Code v2.1.116 argv duplication does not feed a binary to
bash as its $0 (repro: exit 126 "cannot execute binary file").
- Point the command at `observe-wrapper.sh` and pass distinct `pre` /
`post` positional arguments so PreToolUse and PostToolUse are
registered as separate entries.
- Normalize the wrapper path to forward slashes before embedding in the
hook command to avoid MSYS backslash surprises.
- Write UTF-8 (no BOM) with CRLF normalized to LF so downstream JSON
parsers never see mixed line endings.
- Preserve existing hooks (legacy `observe.sh`, third-party entries)
by appending only when the canonical command string is not already
registered. Re-runs are idempotent ([SKIP] both phases).
- Keep the script compatible with Windows PowerShell 5.1: fall back to
a manual PSCustomObject → Hashtable conversion when
`ConvertFrom-Json -AsHashtable` is unavailable, and materialize hook
arrays as `System.Collections.ArrayList` so single-element arrays
survive PS 5.1 `ConvertTo-Json` serialization.
Companion to PR #1524 (settings.local.json shape fix) and PR #1540
(install_hook_wrapper.ps1 argv-dup fix).
Under Claude Code v2.1.116 the first argv token of a hook command is
duplicated. When the token is a quoted Windows .exe path, bash.exe is
re-invoked with itself as script (exit 126). PR #1524 fixed the shape
of settings.local.json; this script keeps the installer consistent so
re-running it does not regenerate the broken form.
Changes:
- First token is now PATH-resolved `bash` instead of the quoted bash.exe
- Wrapper path is normalized to forward slashes for MSYS safety
- PreToolUse and PostToolUse get distinct pre/post positional arguments
- JSON output is written with LF endings (no mixed CRLF/LF)
