Pre-commit Hook Integration - API Key Detection
β Integration Complete
The API key detection has been successfully integrated into the existing Terraphim AI pre-commit hook without overwriting any existing functionality.
π What Was Changed
Enhanced Existing Pre-commit Hook
- Location:
.git/hooks/pre-commit - Integration: Added comprehensive API key detection to existing secret scanning section
- Preserved: All existing checks (Rust formatting/linting, JS/TS with Biome, YAML/TOML syntax, trailing whitespace, large files)
- Fallback: Basic pattern detection if comprehensive script isn't available
Updated Installation Script
- Location:
scripts/install-pre-commit-hook.sh - Smart Detection: Detects existing hooks and integrates rather than overwriting
- Backup: Creates timestamped backups of existing hooks
- Testing: Validates integration after installation
π§ How It Works
Pre-commit Flow
- Large File Check β (existing)
- API Key Detection β¨ (enhanced with comprehensive patterns)
- Rust Formatting β (existing)
- Rust Linting (Clippy) β (existing)
- JS/TS Biome Checks β (existing)
- Trailing Whitespace Fix β (existing)
- YAML/TOML Syntax β (existing)
- Conventional Commit Format β (existing)
API Key Detection Enhancement
- Primary: Uses
scripts/check-api-keys.shfor comprehensive detection - Fallback: Basic pattern matching if script unavailable
- Patterns Detected:
- Cloudflare Account IDs and API tokens
- AWS access keys and secrets
- GitHub tokens
- Google API keys
- Generic API keys, secrets, tokens
- Hardcoded credential patterns
