# CLI 1.1.0 Release: ClaudeCode Hook Integration, Sub-agent Search

After the launch of [**ByteRover 3.0 (CLI 1.0.0)**](/content/blog/introducing-byterover-3.0-context-engineer-agent/index.html), we’re back to **incremental release** of weekly feature updates and product quality improvement.

This week, we’re releasing **ByteRover CLI 1.1.0**, with two major upgrades:

- **ClaudeCode hook integration**
- **Faster, more relevant context queries through sub-agent search, and** `search_knowledge` **tool**

## Claude Code Hook Integration

ByteRover now integrates directly with Claude Code through its native hook system. When you prompt inside Claude Code, ByteRover automatically injects workflow instructions so the agent knows how to use your project’s memory system.

ByteRover has always supported integration with coding agents through instruction files, such as Cursor rules or `CLAUDE.md`. However, a recurring problem we have observed is that agents still forget these instructions, even when they clearly specify actions like calling `brv query` to retrieve context or `brv curate` to save context.

Instructions are loaded once at the start of a session and then compete with everything else in the agent’s context. Over longer conversations, they gradually fade into the background.

Claude Code’s hook system changes this behavior. Hooks allow ByteRover to inject instructions on every new request to the coding agents, not just at session start, but as part of the active workflow. Instead of relying on the agent to remember instructions from earlier in the session, ByteRover reinforces them at the right time. As a result, the agent consistently uses `brv query`, `brv curate`, and the rest of the ByteRover toolkit without requiring manual prompts or reminders.

## Faster, More Relevant Context Queries

The `brv query` command now uses parallel sub-agent search, delivering faster responses with more relevant results. We’ve also introduced a new `search_knowledge` tool that reduces token usage by searching semantically, rather than loading the entire context tree into the context window.

### Try it now

We are also updating other change and bug fixes that makes the product run more reliably and faster. You can find the full list of updates in our [changelog#1-1-0.](https://docs.byterover.dev/changelog#1-1-0)

ByteRover CLI 1.1.0 is now available. If you’re already on CLI 1.0.0, you can upgrade and start using these improvements immediately.
