Agent hook

Mission Control presence/telemetry hooks

Every AI session automatically shows up live on the operations dashboard: when it starts, works, edits files and stops.

how it works

Global SessionStart/PostToolUse/Stop/SessionEnd hooks post heartbeats and file-edit events to the Convex agent API; fail-open.

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.
