 Hooks from **`init`** use **`pnpm exec ai-commit`** when **`pnpm-lock.yaml`** exists in the **package root**; otherwise **`npx --no ai-commit`**. In a monorepo, generated hooks **`cd`** from the git root into that package directory first. Edit the files if you use another runner.

On each **`ai-commit init`**, **`init`** removes **only** that stock one-liner (or the same command behind a minimal **`husky.sh`** wrapper). If you add other lines (e.g. **lint-staged**), the file is left unchanged. Add your own **pre-commit** or rely on **CI** if you still want tests on every commit.

 **Already using Husky?** If **`.husky/_/husky.sh`** exists, **`init`** does not run **`npx husky@9 init`**. **`package.json`** is only amended for missing **`commit`**, **`prepare`**, or **`devDependencies.husky`**.
