Toyota Prius: lazy hazy hot and humid

lazy hazy hot and humid
There was some mail I left on my front seat and the car was locked. Instead
of getting my keys and unlocking the car I reached in up to my elbow through
a small opening in the window and then down to the handle. I nearly ripped
the skin off my arm when I got startled by the alarm.
How did the alarm know to sound off?

At what point did it go off? If it was when you pulled on the handle,
that means that the alarm was working properly. If it was before then,
that means that the glass sensor was working properly.

It saw your reflection in the glass. :-)

I was standing outside the car, reached inside and opened the door by the
handle. How did the security system know the door was being opened by
someone outside the car and not while inside?

No way!
The car faces the street. There's nothing out there but a wood retaining
wall.

Once the security system is activated, it will set off the alarm any
time someone tries to open unlock the car without using the remote or
the mechanical key.
Sit in the car, and lock it with the key fob; then try to open it
without using the fob.

OK I will get back to you later on this because right now it's pitch black
outside and I don't want to stir up the frogs. Their croaking will wake up
the dead.

Check your Owner's Manual. You just completed the procedure for
testing that your alarm system works. (Open a window. turn off car,
close all doors, lock all doors. then reach in through open window and
open door from the inside - alarm will sound.) The alarm will go off
if a door or the hood is opened, without using the keyfob or mechanical
key to open it.

I think most alarm systems do that. I know I've had my share of noisy
surprises!
