+**Type:** Minor — FNDG-04b Option A : PreToolUse safety hook déployé avant chaque lancement Claude
+
+### Ajouté
+- `internal/safety/` : nouveau package, source de vérité unique pour le hook PreToolUse
+  - `hook.sh` (embed `//go:embed`) : gate destructive Bash/Edit/Write avant exécution par l'agent
+  - `safety.go` : `EnsureHookDeployed(projectDir)` — déploie le hook (mode 0555, read-only anti-tamper)
+    et merge la config PreToolUse dans `.claude/settings.json` sans toucher les autres clés
+- `docs/security/claude-safety-hook.md` : mécanisme, liste des patterns bloqués, dépendances, tests
+
+### Modifié
+- `internal/dispatcher/dispatcher.go` (`launchAgent`) : `safety.EnsureHookDeployed(projectDir)` avant
+  tout lancement `claude --dangerously-skip-permissions`. Fail-closed si le hook ne se déploie pas.
+- `internal/switcher/account_switcher.go` (`relaunchDedicatedSessions`) : redéploiement du hook avant
+  chaque `--resume` post-failover. Fail-open (log + continue) — le hook initial reste en place.
+
+### Sécurité (FNDG-04)
+Audit MCP STDIO 2026-04-18 (`audit/mcp-stdio-2026-04-18` dans secuaas-mcp). FNDG-04b est la deuxième
+ligne de défense côté agent ; FNDG-04 (sanitization) est la première ligne côté MCP.
+Décision Olivier (2026-04-19) : Option A retenue. Option C (deux pools) différée.
+
+Patterns bloqués : `rm -rf /|~|$HOME|/etc|/var|/usr|/boot`, `dd of=/dev/...`, `mkfs*`,
+`git push --force` (sauf `--force-with-lease`), `git reset --hard main|master|production`,
+`sudo` hors allowlist `systemctl|journalctl|cp|install|apt`, `curl|sh`, `bash <(curl …)`,
+`eval "$(curl …)"`, fork bomb, crontab -e, chmod 777 sur paths système, et toutes écritures
+sur `.claude/settings*.json`, `.claude/hooks/`, `~/.ssh/authorized_keys`, shell rc, `/etc/sudoers*`,
+`/etc/systemd/*`.
+
+### Tests effectués
+- ✅ `go build ./...` (sans erreurs)
+- ✅ `go test ./internal/safety/...` — 8 tests, tous passent
+- ✅ `go test ./...` — suite complète OK
+- ✅ `go vet ./...` — aucun warning

+# Claude Safety Hook (FNDG-04b)
+
+## Purpose
+
+Sessions launched by claude-failover run with `--dangerously-skip-permissions`
+so the dispatcher pool (`ccl-auto-11`–`ccl-auto-20`) stays headless. That flag
+suppresses the interactive confirmation for every tool call. Combined with the
+MCP `sessions.send` endpoint, a prompt injection could otherwise execute
+arbitrary destructive commands with zero friction.
+
+This package is the **second line of defence** — the first is input
+sanitization in `secuaas-mcp` (FNDG-04). The hook applies a deny-list of
+destructive Bash patterns and write paths to every tool call the agent
+attempts, and exits non-zero to block them.
+
+Decision: **Option A** (per Olivier, 2026-04-19). Option B (removing the flag)
+was rejected — it breaks headless dispatch. Option C (two pools) is deferred
+to a separate task.
+
+## Mechanism
+
+```

+         └──────────────────────── 4. tmux SendKeys claude ─────────────┘
+```
+
+1. Before each claude launch, `safety.EnsureHookDeployed(projectDir)` writes
+   the embedded hook script to `.claude/hooks/claude-safety-hook.sh` with
+   mode `0555` (read+execute, no write).
+2. It merges a `PreToolUse` entry into `.claude/settings.json` without
+   touching other keys (e.g., an existing `security-gate.sh` from CLAUDE.md
+   is preserved).
+3. Claude Code evaluates `PreToolUse` hooks matching
+   `Bash|Edit|Write|MultiEdit|NotebookEdit`, pipes the tool-call JSON to the
+   hook on stdin, and honours its exit code (`0` allow, `2` block).
+4. Only then does the dispatcher send `claude --dangerously-skip-permissions`.
+
+The hook script is **embedded in the Go binary** (`//go:embed hook.sh`) so
+there is a single source of truth. Every launch overwrites the deployed copy,
+so a stale or tampered hook is self-healing on the next session.
+
+## What the hook blocks
+
+**Bash patterns (exit 2, message shown to the model):**
+
+- `rm -rf /`, `rm -rf /*`, `rm -rf ~`, `rm -rf $HOME`, `rm -rf /home`, `rm -rf /etc`, `rm -rf /usr`, `rm -rf /var`, `rm -rf /boot`
+- `dd of=/dev/{sd,nvme,disk,hd,mmcblk}*` and shell redirects to the same
+- `mkfs` / `mkfs.*`
+- `git push --force` / `git push -f` (but `--force-with-lease` is allowed — it is safe in rebased workflows)
+- `git reset --hard` when the target is `main`, `master`, or `production`
+- `git clean -fdx /`, `git clean -fdx ~`, `git clean -fdx $HOME`
+- `sudo …` except the short allow-list `systemctl`, `journalctl`, `cp`, `install`
+- `su -`, `su root`
+- `chmod 777` on `/`, `/etc`, `/usr`, `/var`, `/boot`, `~`, `$HOME`
+- `curl … | sh|bash|zsh|dash`, `wget … | sh`, `bash <(curl …)`, `sh <(wget …)`
+- `eval "$(curl …)"`, `eval $(wget …)`
+- `crontab -e`, `crontab -E`, `>> /etc/crontab`
+- Canonical fork bomb `:(){ :|:& };:`
+
+**Bash patterns (warn only — logged, not blocked):**
+
+- `kubectl delete`, `helm uninstall`, `terraform destroy`
+- `DROP TABLE`, `TRUNCATE TABLE`, `DELETE FROM … WHERE 1=1`
+
+**Edit/Write/MultiEdit/NotebookEdit paths (exit 2):**
+
+- Anything under `.claude/settings*.json`, `.claude/hooks/` (project and `~/.claude/`) — anti self-disable
+- `~/.ssh/authorized_keys`, `~/.ssh/config`
+- `~/.bashrc`, `~/.bash_profile`, `~/.zshrc`, `~/.profile`
+- `/etc/sudoers`, `/etc/sudoers.d/*`, `/etc/systemd/*`, `/etc/crontab`, `/etc/cron.*/*`
+
+## What the hook does **not** do
+
+- It does not gate MCP tools, `WebFetch`, or custom tool names not in the
+  matcher list. Extend the matcher if a new high-risk tool is added.
+- It does not claim to be exhaustive against a determined attacker — it is a
+  seat-belt for the pattern-based attacks enumerated in FNDG-04. Defense in
+  depth still requires (a) MCP input sanitization, (b) rate-limiting on
+  `sessions.send`, and eventually (c) Option C (two pools).
+
+## Dependencies
+
+- `bash` 4+ (for `[[ … =~ … ]]` and `case`)
+- `jq` (used to parse the tool-call JSON). If `jq` is missing, the hook
+  **fails closed** — every tool call is blocked and the log records
+  `FAIL-CLOSED jq not installed`.
+
+## Logs
+
+Each decision is appended to `$CLAUDE_SAFETY_HOOK_LOG` (default
+`~/.claude/safety-hook.log`). The log is per-user, not per-project.
+
+## Deployment sites in claude-failover
+
+| Go file | Line | Context |
+|---|---|---|
+| `internal/dispatcher/dispatcher.go` | `launchAgent` | Every initial session launch. Failure to deploy is fatal — the agent will not start. |
+| `internal/switcher/account_switcher.go` | `relaunchDedicatedSessions` | After a quota failover resume. Failure is logged, not fatal — the pre-existing deployed hook remains in place. |
+
+## Coordination with the bash dispatcher (`lib-common.sh`)
+
+The legacy bash dispatcher in `dev-management/agent-orchestrator/lib-common.sh`
+also launches `claude --dangerously-skip-permissions`. To stay consistent it
+should source the hook before spawning the session. Suggested integration:
+
+```bash
+# In lib-common.sh, just before `tmux send-keys … "claude --dangerously-skip-permissions"`:
+go run forge.secuaas.ovh/olivier/claude-failover/cmd/deploy-safety-hook -- "$project_dir" \
+  || { echo "safety hook deploy failed, refusing to launch" >&2; exit 1; }
+```
+
+(Or vendor `hook.sh` + `settings.json` merge into a small shell helper — the
+Go package is the single source of truth either way.) Cross-repo wiring is
+tracked in a follow-up task; this PR only lands the claude-failover side.
+
+## Testing
+
+```bash
+go test ./internal/safety/ -v
+```
+
+Covers:
+
+- File layout and modes (hook script is `0555`, settings is valid JSON)
+- Idempotency (three deploys = one hook entry)
+- Existing settings keys are preserved
+- Stale matcher is refreshed
+- A representative set of malicious inputs exits `2`
+- A representative set of benign inputs exits `0`
+
+Manual test:
+
+```bash
+echo '{"tool_name":"Bash","tool_input":{"command":"rm -rf ~"}}' \
+  | bash .claude/hooks/claude-safety-hook.sh
+echo $?  # → 2
+```
