Setting DOCKET_HOOKS=off makes hooks/guard_ledger.py exit silently for every call (no ask on ledger writes, no guidance, no governing-decisions context, no feature nudge). docket context still prints the ledger but drops the no-feature hint and the update and merge notices. Unset behaves as before. Tests added next to the hook tests; README paragraph and changelog entry.

Walkthrough

Setting DOCKET_HOOKS=off now silences the ledger edit hook and suppresses feature, update, and merge notices in the session briefing. The briefing still prints the ledger. Tests cover the opt-out and the existing prompt behavior when the setting is on.

Changes

Hook and briefing opt-out

Layer / File(s)	Summary
Silence the ledger edit hook hooks/guard_ledger.py, tests/test_guard_ledger.py	When DOCKET_HOOKS is exactly off, the guard returns success without reading input or printing output. Tests cover ledger and project-file edits. A test also confirms that on still prompts for a ledger edit.
Suppress briefing notices docket/cli/context_cmd.py, tests/test_feature_hint.py, README.md, CHANGELOG.md	When DOCKET_HOOKS is exactly off, the context command suppresses the feature hint and update and merge notices. The ledger output remains. Tests and documentation cover the setting.

Possibly related issues

• NovusEdge/docket issue 32: The opt-out suppresses the guard_ledger prompt reported for flocc commit, but does not classify that command as a permitted ledger operation.
• NovusEdge/docket issue 31: The opt-out suppresses the guard_ledger prompt reported for read-only grep, but does not change quote-aware command parsing.

Merge Risk: Low · up to 46d56

The opt-out silences hooks and briefing notices while retaining ledger output. This is mergeable with follow-up tests for notice suppression and stderr silence.

_{A rabbit sets the hooks to rest
The ledger stays, as rabbits guessed
No feature hint hops into view
Update and merge notices too
The quiet briefing prints its best}
