…all docs Picks up #172 (a PreToolUse hook that blocks installs of packages scoring below the Socket supply-chain threshold across npm/PyPI/Cargo/gem/Go/NuGet, failing open on errors) and #111 (Factory install instructions). The hook is a self-contained, dependency-free copy-paste artifact for ~/.claude/hooks; stdout is its IPC channel so the raw writes carry a logger-guard opt-out. Adapted to fleet conventions (export helpers, undefined over null, sorted methods) and re-tested as test/socket-gate.test.ts under vitest with a stubbed fetch — no live network — covering the parsers + allow/deny/error decisions.

/mcpcommand to access an interactive UIAbout Factory
Factory is an AI-powered software engineering platform that supports MCP servers through both CLI commands and an interactive UI. Factory's MCP support is documented at https://docs.factory.ai/cli/configuration/mcp.
This follows the same pattern and structure as the existing installation instructions for Claude, VS Code, Cursor, and Windsurf.
