What you are looking for is Humanoid.StateChanged, just like the name states, it fires whenever a humanoid state changes. It's listeners have 2 parameters: old and new. You can check it out here.

So you basically check if old is climbing:

Humanoid.StateChanged:Connect(function(old, new)
    if old == Enum.HumanoidStateType.Climbing then
        climbing = false -- not climbing anymore
    end
end)

Well, you can use the Humanoid.StateChanged to see if a player is climbing or if they are not!

https://developer.roblox.com/api-reference/event/Humanoid/StateChanged

Here is a script that showcases Humanoid.StateChanged, taken from that wiki page (make sure this is a local script in the StarterPlayerScripts)

local JUMP_DEBOUNCE = 1
local isJumping = false
humanoid.StateChanged:Connect(function(oldState, newState)
	if newState == Enum.HumanoidStateType.Jumping then
		if not isJumping then
			isJumping = true
			humanoid:SetStateEnabled(Enum.HumanoidStateType.Jumping, false)
		end
	elseif newState == Enum.HumanoidStateType.Landed then
		if isJumping then
			isJumping = false
			wait(JUMP_DEBOUNCE)
			humanoid:SetStateEnabled(Enum.HumanoidStateType.Jumping, true)
		end
	end
end)
