Hotdata CLI plugin

This plugin teaches Claude to use the Hotdata CLI. With it, Claude can manage workspaces and databases, run SQL, pull data in from other sources with ingests, build full-text and vector search indexes, run analytics, and work with geospatial data.

The plugin ships the hotdata skill. It does not ship the CLI binary. If the CLI is missing, Claude asks before it installs anything.

What the plugin runs, sends, and fetches

  • SessionStart hook (hooks/check-cli.sh, Claude Code and Cowork only): checks whether hotdata is on PATH or in ~/.hotdata/cli. If it's only in ~/.hotdata/cli, it adds that folder to PATH for the session. If it's missing, it asks Claude to offer to install the CLI. The hook makes no network requests, installs nothing, and sends no data.
  • Installer, only after you agree: brew install hotdata-dev/tap/cli when brew is present. Otherwise Claude downloads https://hotdata.dev/install to a file, shows it to you, and runs it with HOTDATA_NO_SKILLS=1. It installs the CLI from the hotdata-cli GitHub releases.
  • The skill teaches Claude to run hotdata commands. Those commands talk to the Hotdata API (https://api.hotdata.dev/v1, or HOTDATA_API_URL) with your Hotdata credentials, and send the queries, files, and data source settings you ask Claude to work with. hotdata auth login opens https://app.hotdata.dev in your browser, and the CLI checks the hotdata-cli GitHub releases for new versions (HOTDATA_NO_UPDATE_CHECK=1 turns that off). Neither the plugin nor the CLI collects telemetry.
