Windsurf is now the second IDE with a formal hooks system after Claude Code. Two hook types: PRE_USER_PROMPT (input validation) and POST_CASCADE_RESPONSE_WITH_TRANSCRIPT (audit logging). The differentiator: native MDM deployment via Jamf Pro, Microsoft Intune, and Workspace ONE. IT teams can distribute system-level hooks across machines, enforcing SOC 2 compliance without developer opt-in. This inverts the typical governance model — hooks are installed at the system level, silently, universally. (Windsurf Docs)
