madoqua

A pre-commit hook for Python repos: fix what you staged, re-stage it, run the checks in parallel, say one line. Small, fast, silent until there's something to say.

pre-commit ok (3 py files, 1.8s, slowest: ty check 1.6s): ruff fix, ruff format applied & staged; ruff check, ty check passed

That is the entire output of a clean commit. A commit with a problem prints only the tool that had one.

Documentation · Configuration · Commands

Install

uv tool install madoqua
# or
pipx install madoqua
# or, per project
uv add --dev madoqua

Use

madoqua install   # write hooks/pre-commit and point git at it
madoqua run       # what the hook does; also what a bare `madoqua` does
madoqua stats     # what the hook has been costing you

madoqua needs a virtualenv at <repo_root>/.venv with the tools it calls installed — it refuses to run a ruff from outside it, because a version that disagrees with CI produces failures that look like your code's fault. With the defaults that means uv venv && uv sync.

Configure

Zero configuration gets you ruff check --fix, ruff format, ruff check and ty check. To change that, add [tool.madoqua] to pyproject.toml:

[tool.madoqua]
fix = ["ruff check --fix --quiet", "ruff format --quiet"]
check = [
  "ruff check --quiet",
  { name = "ty", cmd = "ty check", timeout_s = 120, max_output_lines = 200 },
]

hooks.local.toml in the repo's git directory — .git/hooks.local.toml in an ordinary clone — is a personal, uncommitted overlay on the same schema: check/fix replace a list, extend_check/extend_fix append to it, scalars win. MADOQUA_SKIP="ty,ruff check" drops checks by name for one run.

See Configuration.

Exit codes

Using it from Claude Code

Paste this into your project's CLAUDE.md:

## madoqua

`madoqua` is this repo's pre-commit hook. It runs the fixers on the staged
Python files, re-stages them, runs the checks in parallel, and prints one line.
It runs itself on `git commit` — invoke it directly to see what a commit would
say before making one.

```sh
madoqua guide                     # what to do here, right now
madoqua run                       # what `git commit` will do; one line if clean
MADOQUA_SKIP="ty check" madoqua run   # drop a check by name, this run only
madoqua stats                     # which check is costing the most time

Start with madoqua guide: it prints setup instructions in a repo that is not wired up yet, and triage instructions in one that is. madoqua guide tune is the configuration reference.

Exit codes: 0 clean, 1 a check failed (the commit would be blocked), 2 madoqua could not run. Failing checks print only the failing tool's output, on stderr.

Configuration is [tool.madoqua] in pyproject.toml. Set max_output_lines on a noisy check to keep its failures inside a context window.
