Problem

On Windows, plugin hooks with .sh scripts open in VS Code instead of executing (related to #9758).

Affected Plugins

  • learning-output-style
  • explanatory-output-style

Fix

Change hooks.json commands from:
\To:
\

Workaround

Users can manually edit the cached hooks.json files in ~/.claude/plugins/cache/ but this gets overwritten on plugin updates.
