…ts output On Windows a cold node start (antivirus, startup contention) can pass the 5 s limit, and Claude Code then drops the hook's output, so a /ponytail switch in that prompt is lost. The hooks return in under 0.2 s normally, so the higher limit changes nothing in the normal case. Fixes #1158

#1166) Since #1082 the map child had 1 s, to keep a stalled map from costing the rules inside the 5 s hook limit (#1079). On a contended Windows start the map takes 1.5 to 2.3 s, so it was dropped every time. With the hook limit at 15 s (#1165) the map can have 3 s and a stalled one still never costs the rules. Cursor and Copilot run the same start hook, so their limits go to 15 s as well. Fixes #1157 Co-authored-by: Dietrich Gebert <dietrichgebert@gmail.com>

Fixes #1158
On Windows a cold
nodestart (antivirus, startup contention) can take longer than the 5 s hook limit. Claude Code then drops the hook's output, so a/ponytailswitch in that prompt is lost.The three hooks in
hooks/claude-codex-hooks.json(SessionStart, SubagentStart, UserPromptSubmit) now allow 15 s. They return in under 0.2 s normally, so nothing changes in the normal case. Cursor and Copilot keep 5 s for now.
