How to block pushes until you can explain your diff with Grip

Install Grip's pre-push hook so each push gets five questions on your change first.

Who it is forA developer who pushes code written partly by AI and wants to confirm they understand it before it leaves their machine.

The problemCode can be pushed without the author being able to explain why it is built that way, where it fails, or how it is known to work.

The outcomeEvery push is checked against a Grip Score out of 100, and pushes below the passing score wait until the developer passes.

What you need first

  • Python 3.11 or newer on Linux, macOS or Windows
  • git installed and a repository to test in
  • One model option: an installed Claude Code, Codex or Gemini CLI, an Anthropic API key, an OpenAI-compatible API, Ollama, or the offline fake provider

Steps

  1. Install Grip with pipx install grip-hook
  2. Open your repository and run grip init to write .grip.toml and install the pre-push hook
  3. Run git push and answer the five questions Grip asks about your diff
  4. If the score is below the passing score, review the change and push again

Prompt for your agent

Using the grip repo at github.com/guilyx/grip, run `grip init` inside <repo path> and then `git push` to trigger the five quiz questions. Expected output: five questions about the staged diff followed by a Grip Score out of 100. Verify that .grip.toml exists in <repo path> and the pre-push hook is installed.

Caveat. Grip grades answers with a model, so the score reflects what the grader accepts and is not a full measure of understanding, as the project's own docs note.
