2 * register.ts, the workflow-core plugin's hooks module: loads every mod the release ships,
3 * so an adopter runs them from the install cache (#933). The root
4 * hooks/hooks.json names it under `modules`; in the core itself the plugin is
5 * not enabled, and each mod loads stand-alone from .claude/skills/ instead.
6 *
7 * Only `on` and `options` cross the import, never a hook body or `$`: the
8 * engine refuses `$` followed into another file (#903 F3). Each mod's own
9 * `session.start` carries a matcher, without which two in one module fail to
10 * load (#903 F2).
11 *
12 * A new mod is also named in the tests that list each mod
13 * (wfc-mods-validate.test.ts, lib/plugin-tree.test.ts).
