Please help me install this Agent Skill. Skill: hook-conventions Source: https://github.com/zcawood-mie/agentz/tree/main/skills/hook-conventions Command: npx skills add https://github.com/zcawood-mie/agentz --skill hook-conventions
Defines conventions and guardrails for agent lifecycle hooks and their scripts so teams can deterministically enforce safety, prevent dangerous operations, and standardize hook behavior across environments.
Use the hook-conventions skill to audit and validate your project's hooks configuration and scripts before running any tool.

Git hook conventions are enforced by validating lifecycle event scripts that block destructive commands like force-pushes, requiring explicit exit code semantics and JSON stdin/stdout contracts for deterministic safety during agent operations.
Lifecycle hooks are event-driven scripts executed during agent workflows; PreToolUse runs before a tool executes to validate or block actions, while PostToolUse runs after to scan outputs or auto-format modified files.
Configure shell scripts by reading JSON input from stdin, processing the payload according to hook event rules, and writing JSON output to stdout with explicit exit codes to signal approval, blocking, or timeout handling.
Yes, a global hooks JSON file located at ~/.agents/hooks/global.json is required to define and register lifecycle events like PreToolUse, PostToolUse, SessionStart, and UserPromptSubmit for deterministic agent workflow enforcement.
Yes, PostToolUse lifecycle hooks can execute shell scripts to scan staged git diffs for secrets before a push completes, leveraging JSON stdin/stdout contracts and timeout handling to ensure safe automated execution.
Lifecycle hook scripts must adhere to strict timeout handling and explicit exit code semantics; failing to follow JSON stdin/stdout contracts or exceeding execution timeouts can break agent workflows and bypass security enforcement.
