Agent hook

AFK beacon

Walk away from an AI task; when it's done your phone buzzes and opens a summary page you can have read aloud.

how it works

/afk writes a marker; the global Stop hook gate runs afk_beacon.py: transcript -> summary -> HTML page served over the tailnet -> Telegram push with the full closing message (HA push fallback).

Agent hook: A script that runs automatically at a moment in an AI session (before a command, when it stops) to steer or guard it.

The code for this one lives in a private repo. This page explains the idea so you can build your own.
