Fix test import style and document hooks in CLAUDE.md

- Replace mixed ESM/CJS import syntax in test file with consistent ESM
  imports throughout (both vitest and normalizer use import)
- Add Git Hooks section to CLAUDE.md documenting install-hooks.sh
  and the commit-msg normalizer for new contributors

+## Git Hooks
+
+A commit-msg hook normalizes commit messages on every commit (capitalizes subject, strips trailing period, trims whitespace, warns when subject exceeds 72 characters). The hook never blocks a commit.
+
+**Wire hooks after cloning:**
+```bash
+sh scripts/install-hooks.sh
+# or via npm script:
+cd scripts && npm run hooks:install
+```
+
+The hook script lives at `scripts/commit-msg` and is invoked by `.git/hooks/commit-msg`. The normalizer logic is in `scripts/normalize-commit-msg.js` with unit tests in `scripts/__tests__/normalize-commit-msg.test.js` (run with `cd scripts && npm test`).

 ## Development

 **Financing:** `GET/POST /api/financing`, `PUT/DELETE /api/financing/:id`, `PATCH /api/financing-payments/:id/paid`. Plans track a total amount, payoff due date, and `start_date`. Payment per period is auto-calculated as `(remaining balance) / (remaining periods)`. Split plans (`assigned_paycheck = null`) divide each period's payment across both paychecks. Plans auto-close when fully paid. Financing payments are included in the paycheck remaining balance. `start_date` prevents a plan from appearing on paycheck months before it was created — both virtual previews and `generate` respect this guard.
 
 **Migrations:** SQL files in `db/migrations/` are applied in filename order on server startup. Add new migrations as `00N_description.sql` — they run once and are tracked in the `migrations` table.

-## Performance Tooling
-
-**Timing middleware** (`server/src/middleware/timing.js`): Registered early in `app.js`. Logs every request's method, path, status code, and duration. Emits a `[SLOW]` warning for responses exceeding 200 ms.
-
-**Benchmark script** (`scripts/perf-benchmark.js`): Hits `GET /api/paychecks`, `GET /api/financing`, and `GET /api/summary/annual` five times each and reports min/mean/max latency. Exits non-zero if any mean exceeds the threshold (default 500 ms, override via `SLOW_THRESHOLD_MS` env var). Target server URL defaults to `http://localhost:3001` (override via `BENCHMARK_URL`).
-
-```bash
-cd server && npm run perf          # run against localhost:3001
-BENCHMARK_URL=http://localhost:3000 npm run perf
-```
-
-**Performance indexes** (`db/migrations/005_performance_indexes.sql`): Adds indexes on `paychecks(period_year, period_month)`, `paycheck_bills(paycheck_id)`, `actuals(paycheck_id)`, `one_time_expenses(paycheck_id)`, `financing_payments(plan_id)`, and `financing_plans(active)` — applied automatically on server startup.
