docs: complete factual audit pass 2 — 90+ corrections

Second 10-agent parallel audit covering all remaining sections:
ultimate-guide.md (ch1-ch11), workflows/ (17 files), quiz/ (12 files),
examples/agents+skills+commands. Source of truth: official Anthropic docs.

Key corrections:

Hook system (+8 missing events):
- Complete 17-event list: PermissionRequest, PostToolUseFailure, SubagentStart,
  TeammateIdle, TaskCompleted, WorktreeCreate, WorktreeRemove, SessionEnd
- SessionStart confirmed valid (previous audit wrongly doubted it)
- Hook output format: hookSpecificOutput.permissionDecision (not {"decision":"block"})
- Missing common input fields added: transcript_path, cwd, permission_mode

Agent YAML frontmatter (13 valid fields restored/added):
- Restored: disallowedTools, memory, background, isolation, skills, permissionMode, hooks
- Added new: maxTurns, mcpServers
- Fixed: tools format is comma-separated (not space-separated)

Plan Mode (12 occurrences fixed):
- Ctrl+G = "open plan in text editor" (NOT "enter plan mode")
- Plan Mode = Shift+Tab × 2 (Normal → acceptEdits → plan)

Commands table (10.1) + built-in commands (6.1):
- Added 18+ missing commands: /copy, /doctor, /hooks, /memory, /model,
  /config, /permissions, /remote-control, /rename, /resume, /sandbox, etc.

Workflow files:
- agent-teams.md: removed fake --experimental-agent-teams flag
- hooks.yaml + post_edit event → settings.json + PostToolUse (2 files)
- TodoWrite → TaskCreate/TaskUpdate (3 files)
- task-management.md: removed fake "failed" task status

Quiz / examples:
- 01-010: Esc stops mid-action (not Ctrl+C)
- refactoring-specialist.md: removed MultiEdit (not a valid tool)
- ast-grep-patterns.md: name field (not title)
- validate-changes.md, diagnose.md: field name fixes

**Diagnosis**: Hook file naming or location issue.
**Solution**:
1. Verify hook is in `.claude/hooks/` or `~/.claude/hooks/`
2. Check filename matches event: `PreToolUse.sh`, `PostToolUse.sh`
3. Ensure hook is executable: `chmod +x hook.sh`

2. Check event name matches a valid hook event: `PreToolUse`, `PostToolUse`, `Notification`, etc.

```
Access via `Esc + Esc` (double-tap Escape) or the `/rewind` command. This opens a scrollable checkpoint list.
### What Rewind Does
- Reverts file changes
- Restores previous state
- Works across multiple files
Rewind provides four distinct actions from the checkpoint list:
| Action | Effect |
|--------|--------|
| **Restore code and conversation** | Revert both file changes and conversation to selected point |
| **Restore conversation** | Keep current code, rewind conversation only |
| **Restore code** | Revert file changes, keep conversation |
| **Summarize from here** | Compress conversation from selected point forward (frees space without reverting) |

| `matcher` | Regex pattern filtering when hooks fire (tool name, session start reason, etc.) |

### Hook Input (stdin JSON)
Hooks receive JSON on stdin:
Hooks receive JSON on stdin with common fields (all events) plus event-specific fields:
```json
{
"session_id": "abc123",
"transcript_path": "/home/user/.claude/projects/.../transcript.jsonl",
"cwd": "/project",
"permission_mode": "default",
"hook_event_name": "PreToolUse",
"tool_name": "Bash",
"tool_input": {
"command": "git status"
},
"session_id": "abc123",
"cwd": "/project"
}
```
### Hook Output
Hooks can return JSON on stdout:
```json
{
"systemMessage": "Message shown to Claude",
"hookSpecificOutput": {
"additionalContext": "Extra information"
}
}
```
**PreToolUse additionalContext** (v2.1.9+): PreToolUse hooks can inject context into Claude's prompt via `additionalContext`. This allows enriching Claude's understanding before tool execution:
> **Common fields (all events)**: `session_id`, `transcript_path`, `cwd`, `permission_mode`, `hook_event_name`. Event-specific fields (like `tool_name` and `tool_input` for PreToolUse) are added on top.
### Hook Output
Hooks communicate results through exit codes and optional JSON on stdout. Choose one approach per hook: either exit codes alone, or exit 0 with JSON for structured control (Claude Code only processes JSON on exit 0).
**Universal JSON fields** (all events):
| Field | Default | Description |
|-------|---------|-------------|
| `continue` | `true` | If `false`, Claude stops processing entirely |
| `stopReason` | none | Message shown to user when `continue` is `false` |
| `suppressOutput` | `false` | If `true`, hides stdout from verbose mode |
| `systemMessage` | none | Warning message shown to user |
**Event-specific decision control** varies by event type:
- **PreToolUse**: Uses `hookSpecificOutput` with `permissionDecision` (allow/deny/ask), `permissionDecisionReason`, `updatedInput`, `additionalContext`
- **PostToolUse, Stop, SubagentStop, UserPromptSubmit, ConfigChange**: Uses top-level `decision: "block"` with `reason`
- **TeammateIdle, TaskCompleted**: Exit code 2 only (no JSON decision control)
- **PermissionRequest**: Uses `hookSpecificOutput` with `decision.behavior` (allow/deny)
**PreToolUse blocking example** (preferred over exit code 2):
```json
{
"hookSpecificOutput": {
"hookEventName": "PreToolUse",
"permissionDecision": "deny",
"permissionDecisionReason": "Destructive command blocked by hook"
}
}
```
**PreToolUse context injection**:
```json
{
"hookSpecificOutput": {
"hookEventName": "PreToolUse",
"additionalContext": "Current git branch: feature/auth. 3 uncommitted files."
}
}

explanation: |
Ctrl+C cancels the current operation in Claude Code. This is useful for stopping long-running analysis or when Claude is taking an approach you don't want. Esc dismisses the current suggestion, while Ctrl+R retries the last operation. Knowing these shortcuts helps maintain control during your workflow.
Esc cancels (stops) the current operation in Claude Code. Press Esc once to stop Claude mid-action, and double-tap Esc (Esc+Esc) to open the rewind menu. Ctrl+C is the standard terminal interrupt but Esc is the primary in-app shortcut for stopping operations. Knowing these shortcuts helps maintain control during your workflow.

The `PreToolUse` event fires before any tool runs.
Common event types:
- **PreToolUse**: Before tool execution (ideal for security validation)
- **PostToolUse**: After tool execution (for formatting, logging)
Claude Code supports 17 hook events:
- **PreToolUse**: Before tool execution (security validation)
- **PostToolUse**: After tool succeeds (formatting, logging)
- **PostToolUseFailure**: After tool fails (error logging)
- **UserPromptSubmit**: When user sends a message (context enrichment)
- **Notification**: When Claude sends a notification
- **SessionStart/SessionEnd**: Session lifecycle events
- **Stop**: When Claude finishes responding
- **PermissionRequest**: Permission dialog appears
- **SubagentStart/SubagentStop**: Sub-agent lifecycle
- **TeammateIdle/TaskCompleted**: Agent team events
- **ConfigChange**: Config file changes during session
- **WorktreeCreate/WorktreeRemove**: Worktree lifecycle
- **PreCompact**: Before context compaction

Hooks receive JSON data on stdin with information about the event.
Example input structure:
Example input structure (common fields + event-specific fields):
```json
{
"session_id": "abc123",
"transcript_path": "/home/user/.claude/projects/.../transcript.jsonl",
"cwd": "/project",
"permission_mode": "default",
"hook_event_name": "PreToolUse",
"tool_name": "Bash",
"tool_input": {
"command": "git status"
},
"session_id": "abc123",
"cwd": "/project"
}
}
```
Common fields sent to all events: `session_id`, `transcript_path`, `cwd`, `permission_mode`, `hook_event_name`.
Hooks typically parse this with: `INPUT=$(cat)` followed by `jq` for JSON extraction.

The `UserPromptSubmit` event is ideal for context enrichment.
Use cases:
Use cases by event:
- **UserPromptSubmit**: Add context (git status, current branch, staged files)
- **PreToolUse**: Security validation (block dangerous commands)
- **PostToolUse**: Formatting, logging, quality checks
- **SessionStart**: Initialize environment, scan CLAUDE.md for injections
- **Notification**: Sound alerts, desktop notifications
The context enricher example adds git branch, last commit, and staged/unstaged info.
