/hooks-authoring - Hook Authoring Workflow

Purpose: help an operator who opts in to authoring their own runtime hooks do so with portable behavior, clear matchers, deterministic tests, and a kill switch.

AgentOps 3.0 ships zero hooks. Workflow is guided by skills + the ao CLI, and CI is the authoritative gate. This skill is for the operator who chooses to add their own hooks to their harness — it is not part of the default product surface. Author into your own hooks/hooks.json (or your harness's equivalent); the AgentOps repo no longer carries a shipped hook manifest.

Execute this workflow. Do not only describe it.

Route

Use this skill only when you are deliberately authoring or reviewing your own runtime hooks. Validate the manifest shape against schemas/hooks-manifest.v1.schema.json.
