fix(sdd): never append a second canonical hook after pruning

Closes #4876

🏷️ PR Type

• type:bug — Bug fix (non-breaking change that fixes an issue)

📝 Summary

A settings file holding both the legacy POSIX UserPromptSubmit literal and the canonical PowerShell literal had the legacy entry pruned and then skipped the canonical-existence check, because that check was guarded on !pruned. The canonical hook was therefore appended a second time and the skill-registry refresh ran twice per prompt.

Canonical existence is now computed after the prune and the append is gated on it, while a pruned-only change is still written to disk and reported as a change.

This also fixes why the defect reached main: both migration regressions were gated on runtime.GOOS == "windows" and skipped in every pull-request lane. They now drive an extracted platform-independent core with the Windows literal pair, so they run on Linux, macOS and Windows alike.

📂 Changes

File / Area	What changed
internal/components/sdd/inject.go	ensureClaudeSkillRegistryHook became a thin platform dispatcher; the new core computes canonical existence after the prune and appends only when absent
internal/components/sdd/inject_test.go	Windows-only skips removed from the two migration regressions; the duplicate regression strengthened (both literals seeded, legacy count 0, canonical count exactly 1, change reported, second call a no-op, unrelated hooks survive)

🧪 Test Plan

go test ./internal/components/sdd -count=1        # ok, full package
go test ./internal/components/sdd -run 'TestEnsureClaudeSkillRegistryHook|TestPruneLegacyClaudeHook' -count=1 -v
go run ./internal/gofmtcheck && go vet ./internal/components/sdd && go build ./...

• Unit tests pass
• Go format passes
• Discriminating evidence: with the append left unconditional, the strengthened regression fails with canonical PowerShell literal count = 2, want 1; with the fix it passes.

📌 Notes for reviewers

• This is a follow-up to fix(sdd): emit PowerShell-safe UserPromptSubmit hook on Windows #4875: the fix commit was pushed at the moment that pull request merged, so it landed on the branch but not in the merge. Everything else from fix(sdd): emit PowerShell-safe UserPromptSubmit hook on Windows #4875 is in main.
• No behaviour changes beyond the dedupe: the write path, the changed reporting and the schema validation all keep their previous semantics, and the platform emission of the hook literal is unchanged.

Summary by CodeRabbit

• Bug Fixes

  • Improved Claude skill hook migration when legacy and canonical commands coexist.
  • Prevented duplicate canonical hook entries during repeated configuration updates.
  • Ensured hooks are added to the correct event, even when the same command exists elsewhere.
  • Preserved unrelated hooks while removing obsolete legacy commands.
  • Improved cross-platform handling of hook commands and working-directory arguments.

• Tests

  • Expanded regression coverage for cross-platform hook migration, persistence, event scoping, and repeated updates.

📝 Walkthrough

Walkthrough

The hook writer now checks for the canonical command after pruning legacy commands. Platform-specific command selection uses a shared helper. Regression tests run on all platforms and verify hook preservation, canonical uniqueness, and idempotence.

Changes

Claude hook deduplication

Layer / File(s)	Summary
Hook migration logic internal/components/sdd/inject.go	Platform-specific commands now use a shared helper. The helper prunes legacy commands before checking canonical existence and appends the canonical hook only when absent.
Migration regression tests internal/components/sdd/inject_test.go	Migration tests run on every platform. They verify that unrelated hooks survive, the canonical hook appears once, and repeated execution makes no further changes.

fails. Preserve the current atomic write behavior while ensuring the backup is

- Line 1974: Restrict the existence check in the migration flow around
claudeHookExists to the UserPromptSubmit hook entries only, so commands
registered under SessionStart, Stop, or SubagentStop do not suppress the
required entry. Reuse claudeHookListContains for the UserPromptSubmit entries
and add a migration test covering a legacy UserPromptSubmit command removed
while the canonical command exists under another event.

Both findings checked against the code, then a third defect found in the same Windows run.

inject.go:1974 (scope the existence check to UserPromptSubmit): valid, fixed in 3b2e3bd9. claudeHookExists scanned UserPromptSubmit, SessionStart, Stop and SubagentStop, so a canonical command registered under any of the other three events made the check true and silently suppressed the required UserPromptSubmit entry, which means the refresh never ran on prompt submit. The check now uses the existing event-scoped helper (hookCommandExists(hooksMap, "UserPromptSubmit", command)) and the cross-event wrapper is deleted. New regression TestEnsureClaudeSkillRegistryHookAddsUPSEntryWhenCanonicalOnlyOnOtherEvent seeds the legacy literal in UserPromptSubmit with the canonical command under Stop; with the cross-event check restored it fails, with the fix it passes.

inject.go:1975 (recoverable backup for the settings write): declined, same reason as on #4875. filemerge.WriteFileAtomic is used by twenty settings writers in this file and every one of them treats a write error the same way, so a backup scoped to this single call site would give it a different durability contract from its nineteen siblings. The remedy for the #1676 landed-with-error contract belongs in one change covering all of them, and I would rather open that separately than smuggle it into a bug fix.

Not from the review, but found in the same Windows run and fixed here. TestEnsureClaudeSkillRegistryHookWindowsCommandQuotesCwdArg matched the raw settings.json text and looked for --cwd "$dir" where the file holds the JSON-escaped --cwd \"$dir\". The Windows run printed the correct command on disk and the assertion still failed. All of these assertions now read the decoded command instead, and the test runs its platform branch for real rather than returning early outside Windows without ever checking the Windows form.
