Kiro's agent hooks system represents the future of development automation—intelligent agents that understand context, make decisions, and execute complex workflows without manual intervention. While basic hooks can automate simple tasks like running tests on file save, advanced techniques unlock transformative capabilities that can revolutionize how your team develops software.
This comprehensive guide explores sophisticated hook patterns, multi-agent orchestration, and production-ready automation strategies that experienced teams use to achieve unprecedented productivity gains. These techniques require solid understanding of Kiro fundamentals, but the investment in mastering them pays enormous dividends.
Understanding Advanced Hook Architecture
Before diving into specific techniques, it's crucial to understand how advanced hooks differ from simple automation scripts. Advanced Kiro hooks are intelligent agents that:
- Analyze Context: Understand the broader implications of changes
- Make Decisions: Choose appropriate actions based on analysis
- Coordinate Actions: Work with other agents to accomplish complex goals
- Learn Patterns: Adapt behavior based on project history
- Handle Exceptions: Gracefully manage unexpected situations
Multi-Agent Workflow Orchestration
The most powerful hook technique involves coordinating multiple AI agents, each specialized for specific tasks but working together toward common goals.
The Agent Hierarchy Pattern
// .kiro/hooks/orchestrator.js
module.exports = {
trigger: "onSpecificationUpdate",
pattern: "specs/features/*.md",
agent: async (context) => {
const { file, changes, projectContext } = context;
// Parse specification changes
const specAnalysis = await analyzeSpecification(file);
if (specAnalysis.isNewFeature) {
// Orchestrate multiple agents for new feature development
const workflow = await createWorkflow({
spec: specAnalysis,
agents: [
'architect',
'backend-developer',
'frontend-developer',
'tester',
'documenter'
]
});
await executeWorkflow(workflow);
} else if (specAnalysis.hasBreakingChanges) {
// Handle breaking changes with impact analysis
await handleBreakingChanges(specAnalysis, projectContext);
}
}
};
async function createWorkflow({ spec, agents }) {
return {
id: generateWorkflowId(),
spec: spec,
phases: [
{
name: "Architecture Design",
agents: ['architect'],
dependencies: [],
outputs: ['architecture.md', 'api-contracts.json']
},
{
name: "Backend Implementation",
agents: ['backend-developer'],
dependencies: ['Architecture Design'],
outputs: ['src/api/', 'migrations/']
},
{
name: "Frontend Implementation",
agents: ['frontend-developer'],
dependencies: ['Architecture Design'],
outputs: ['src/components/', 'src/pages/']
},
{
name: "Integration Testing",
agents: ['tester'],
dependencies: ['Backend Implementation', 'Frontend Implementation'],
outputs: ['tests/integration/', 'tests/e2e/']
},
{
name: "Documentation Update",
agents: ['documenter'],
dependencies: ['Integration Testing'],
outputs: ['docs/', 'README.md']
}
]
};
}
Specialized Agent Implementations
Each agent in the workflow has specialized capabilities and responsibilities:
// .kiro/agents/architect.js
module.exports = {
role: "System Architect",
capabilities: [
"system-design",
"api-design",
"data-modeling",
"performance-analysis",
"security-review"
],
async execute(task, context) {
const { specification, projectContext } = task;
// Analyze existing architecture
const currentArchitecture = await analyzeCurrentArchitecture(projectContext);
// Design system changes
const design = await designSystem({
requirements: specification,
constraints: currentArchitecture.constraints,
patterns: currentArchitecture.patterns,
performance: projectContext.performanceRequirements
});
// Validate design against architectural principles
const validation = await validateDesign(design, projectContext.principles);
if (!validation.isValid) {
throw new ArchitecturalError(validation.issues);
}
// Generate architecture documentation
await generateArchitectureDoc(design);
// Create API contracts
await generateAPIContracts(design.apis);
// Identify infrastructure requirements
await analyzeInfrastructureNeeds(design);
return {
design,
contracts: design.apis,
infrastructure: design.infrastructure,
documentation: design.documentation
};
}
};
// .kiro/agents/tester.js
module.exports = {
role: "Intelligent Test Engineer",
async execute(task, context) {
const { implementation, specification, architecture } = task;
// Analyze what needs testing
const testAnalysis = await analyzeTestRequirements({
implementation,
specification,
riskAreas: await identifyRiskAreas(implementation),
changeImpact: await analyzeChangeImpact(implementation, context)
});
// Generate comprehensive test suite
const testSuite = await generateTests({
unit: await generateUnitTests(testAnalysis.units),
integration: await generateIntegrationTests(testAnalysis.integrations),
e2e: await generateE2ETests(testAnalysis.userFlows),
performance: await generatePerformanceTests(testAnalysis.performance),
security: await generateSecurityTests(testAnalysis.security)
});
// Execute tests and analyze results
const results = await executeTestSuite(testSuite);
// Intelligent failure analysis
if (results.hasFailures) {
const analysis = await analyzeFailures(results.failures);
await suggestFixes(analysis);
// Auto-fix simple issues
const fixableIssues = analysis.filter(issue => issue.confidence > 0.9);
for (const issue of fixableIssues) {
await applyFix(issue);
}
}
// Update test coverage analysis
await updateCoverageAnalysis(results);
return results;
}
};
Context-Aware Automation Patterns
Advanced hooks excel at understanding context and making intelligent decisions based on the full picture of your development environment.
Smart Dependency Management
// .kiro/hooks/dependency-intelligence.js
module.exports = {
trigger: "onDependencyChange",
pattern: ["package.json", "requirements.txt", "Cargo.toml"],
agent: async (context) => {
const { file, changes, projectContext } = context;
// Analyze dependency changes
const analysis = await analyzeDependencyChanges(changes);
for (const change of analysis.changes) {
if (change.type === 'version-update') {
// Check for breaking changes
const compatibility = await checkCompatibility(
change.package,
change.fromVersion,
change.toVersion,
projectContext.codebase
);
if (compatibility.hasBreakingChanges) {
// Generate migration plan
const migrationPlan = await generateMigrationPlan(compatibility);
// Notify developers
await notifyTeam({
type: 'breaking-dependency-change',
package: change.package,
migrationPlan: migrationPlan,
estimatedEffort: migrationPlan.estimatedHours
});
// Auto-create migration tasks
await createMigrationTasks(migrationPlan);
}
}
if (change.type === 'new-dependency') {
// Security and license analysis
const securityScan = await scanDependencySecurity(change.package);
const licenseCheck = await checkLicenseCompatibility(
change.package,
projectContext.licensePolicy
);
if (securityScan.hasVulnerabilities) {
await blockDependencyUpdate(change, securityScan.vulnerabilities);
}
if (!licenseCheck.isCompatible) {
await flagLicenseIssue(change, licenseCheck.conflicts);
}
}
}
// Update dependency graph
await updateDependencyGraph(analysis);
// Check for circular dependencies
const circularDeps = await detectCircularDependencies(analysis);
if (circularDeps.length > 0) {
await reportCircularDependencies(circularDeps);
}
}
};
Intelligent Performance Monitoring
// .kiro/hooks/performance-monitor.js
module.exports = {
trigger: "onCodeChange",
pattern: "src/**/*.{js,ts,py,go,rs}",
agent: async (context) => {
const { file, changes, projectContext } = context;
// Analyze performance impact of changes
const performanceAnalysis = await analyzePerformanceImpact({
file,
changes,
historicalData: projectContext.performanceHistory,
benchmarks: projectContext.performanceBenchmarks
});
if (performanceAnalysis.hasPotentialRegression) {
// Run targeted performance tests
const perfTests = await runPerformanceTests(
performanceAnalysis.affectedComponents
);
if (perfTests.hasRegression) {
// Analyze root cause
const rootCause = await analyzePerformanceRegression(
perfTests.results,
changes
);
// Generate optimization suggestions
const optimizations = await generateOptimizations(rootCause);
// Auto-apply low-risk optimizations
const safeOptimizations = optimizations.filter(opt => opt.risk === 'low');
for (const opt of safeOptimizations) {
await applyOptimization(opt);
}
// Report significant regressions
if (perfTests.regression > 0.1) { // 10% threshold
await reportPerformanceRegression({
file: file.path,
regression: perfTests.regression,
optimizations: optimizations,
appliedFixes: safeOptimizations
});
}
}
}
// Update performance baseline
await updatePerformanceBaseline(file, performanceAnalysis);
}
};
Advanced Integration Patterns
Production teams need hooks that integrate seamlessly with existing development infrastructure and processes.
CI/CD Pipeline Integration
// .kiro/hooks/pipeline-orchestrator.js
module.exports = {
trigger: "onCommit",
agent: async (context) => {
const { commit, changedFiles, projectContext } = context;
// Analyze commit impact
const impactAnalysis = await analyzeCommitImpact({
commit,
changedFiles,
testSuite: projectContext.testSuite,
dependencies: projectContext.dependencies
});
// Generate optimized pipeline configuration
const pipelineConfig = await generatePipelineConfig({
impact: impactAnalysis,
changedComponents: impactAnalysis.affectedComponents,
testStrategy: await determineTestStrategy(impactAnalysis),
deploymentStrategy: await determineDeploymentStrategy(impactAnalysis)
});
// Execute pipeline with intelligent test selection
const pipeline = await executePipeline({
config: pipelineConfig,
tests: await selectRelevantTests(impactAnalysis),
parallelization: await optimizeParallelization(impactAnalysis),
environmentStrategy: await selectEnvironments(impactAnalysis)
});
// Monitor pipeline execution
await monitorPipelineExecution(pipeline, {
onFailure: async (failure) => {
const analysis = await analyzeFailure(failure);
// Auto-retry transient failures
if (analysis.isTransient) {
await retryPipelineStage(failure.stage);
} else {
// Intelligent failure diagnosis
const diagnosis = await diagnoseFailure(failure, context);
await reportFailureWithSolutions(diagnosis);
}
},
onSuccess: async (results) => {
// Update success metrics
await updatePipelineMetrics(results);
// Determine deployment readiness
const readiness = await assessDeploymentReadiness(results);
if (readiness.isReady && impactAnalysis.isHotfix) {
// Auto-deploy hotfixes
await initiateDeployment({
type: 'hotfix',
approval: 'auto',
monitoring: 'enhanced'
});
}
}
});
}
};
Cloud Infrastructure Integration
// .kiro/hooks/infrastructure-intelligence.js
module.exports = {
trigger: "onDeployment",
agent: async (context) => {
const { deployment, environment, projectContext } = context;
// Analyze infrastructure requirements
const infraAnalysis = await analyzeInfrastructureNeeds({
deployment,
currentInfra: await getCurrentInfrastructure(environment),
usage: await getUsagePatterns(environment),
performance: await getPerformanceMetrics(environment)
});
// Optimize resource allocation
if (infraAnalysis.needsOptimization) {
const optimizations = await generateInfraOptimizations(infraAnalysis);
// Apply safe optimizations automatically
const safeOptimizations = optimizations.filter(opt =>
opt.risk === 'low' && opt.impact > 0.1
);
for (const optimization of safeOptimizations) {
await applyInfrastructureChange(optimization, environment);
}
}
// Predictive scaling
const scalingPrediction = await predictScalingNeeds({
currentUsage: infraAnalysis.usage,
trends: infraAnalysis.trends,
deployment: deployment
});
if (scalingPrediction.needsScaling) {
await scheduleScaling({
when: scalingPrediction.timing,
resources: scalingPrediction.resources,
duration: scalingPrediction.duration
});
}
// Cost optimization
const costAnalysis = await analyzeCosts({
current: infraAnalysis.currentCosts,
projected: infraAnalysis.projectedCosts,
optimizations: await getCostOptimizations(infraAnalysis)
});
if (costAnalysis.savingsOpportunity > 0.15) { // 15% savings threshold
await reportCostOptimization(costAnalysis);
}
// Security compliance monitoring
await monitorSecurityCompliance({
infrastructure: infraAnalysis.infrastructure,
policies: projectContext.securityPolicies,
onViolation: async (violation) => {
await handleSecurityViolation(violation, environment);
}
});
}
};
Error Handling and Recovery Patterns
Advanced hooks must gracefully handle failures and unexpected situations while maintaining system stability.
Resilient Hook Architecture
// .kiro/hooks/base/resilient-hook.js
class ResilientHook {
constructor(config) {
this.config = config;
this.retryPolicy = config.retryPolicy || defaultRetryPolicy;
this.circuitBreaker = new CircuitBreaker(config.circuitBreaker);
this.metrics = new HookMetrics(config.name);
}
async execute(context) {
const startTime = Date.now();
let attempt = 0;
while (attempt < this.retryPolicy.maxAttempts) {
try {
// Check circuit breaker
if (this.circuitBreaker.isOpen()) {
throw new CircuitBreakerOpenError();
}
// Execute hook logic with timeout
const result = await Promise.race([
this.executeHookLogic(context),
this.createTimeout(this.config.timeout)
]);
// Success - update metrics and return
this.metrics.recordSuccess(Date.now() - startTime);
this.circuitBreaker.recordSuccess();
return result;
} catch (error) {
attempt++;
this.metrics.recordError(error);
this.circuitBreaker.recordFailure();
// Determine if error is retryable
if (!this.isRetryableError(error) || attempt >= this.retryPolicy.maxAttempts) {
await this.handleFinalFailure(error, context, attempt);
throw error;
}
// Wait before retry with exponential backoff
const delay = this.calculateBackoffDelay(attempt);
await this.wait(delay);
}
}
}
async handleFinalFailure(error, context, attempts) {
// Log failure details
await this.logFailure({
error,
context,
attempts,
hookName: this.config.name,
timestamp: new Date().toISOString()
});
// Trigger fallback behavior if configured
if (this.config.fallback) {
try {
await this.config.fallback(error, context);
} catch (fallbackError) {
console.error('Fallback failed:', fallbackError);
}
}
// Notify monitoring systems
await this.notifyFailure({
hookName: this.config.name,
error: error.message,
context: this.sanitizeContext(context)
});
}
isRetryableError(error) {
// Network errors, timeouts, and temporary service unavailability are retryable
return error.code === 'NETWORK_ERROR' ||
error.code === 'TIMEOUT' ||
error.code === 'SERVICE_UNAVAILABLE' ||
(error.status >= 500 && error.status < 600);
}
calculateBackoffDelay(attempt) {
const baseDelay = this.retryPolicy.baseDelay || 1000;
const maxDelay = this.retryPolicy.maxDelay || 30000;
// Exponential backoff with jitter
const exponentialDelay = baseDelay * Math.pow(2, attempt - 1);
const jitter = Math.random() * 0.1 * exponentialDelay;
return Math.min(exponentialDelay + jitter, maxDelay);
}
}
Performance Optimization Techniques
Advanced hooks can consume significant resources. These optimization techniques ensure they enhance rather than hinder development velocity.
Intelligent Caching Strategies
// .kiro/hooks/utils/intelligent-cache.js
class IntelligentCache {
constructor(config) {
this.config = config;
this.cache = new Map();
this.hitRates = new Map();
this.accessPatterns = new Map();
}
async get(key, contextAnalysis) {
// Analyze access pattern
this.recordAccess(key, contextAnalysis);
const cached = this.cache.get(key);
if (cached && this.isValid(cached, contextAnalysis)) {
this.recordHit(key);
return cached.value;
}
this.recordMiss(key);
return null;
}
async set(key, value, contextAnalysis) {
const metadata = {
value,
timestamp: Date.now(),
contextHash: this.hashContext(contextAnalysis),
accessCount: 0,
lastAccess: Date.now(),
dependencies: this.extractDependencies(contextAnalysis)
};
this.cache.set(key, metadata);
// Intelligent eviction based on usage patterns
await this.manageCache();
}
isValid(cached, contextAnalysis) {
const age = Date.now() - cached.timestamp;
const maxAge = this.calculateMaxAge(cached, contextAnalysis);
if (age > maxAge) return false;
// Check if dependencies have changed
return !this.dependenciesChanged(cached.dependencies, contextAnalysis);
}
calculateMaxAge(cached, contextAnalysis) {
const baseMaxAge = this.config.defaultTTL || 3600000; // 1 hour
// Adjust based on access patterns
const accessFrequency = this.getAccessFrequency(cached);
const contextStability = this.getContextStability(contextAnalysis);
// More frequently accessed and stable contexts can be cached longer
return baseMaxAge * accessFrequency * contextStability;
}
async manageCache() {
if (this.cache.size <= this.config.maxSize) return;
// Calculate eviction scores
const entries = Array.from(this.cache.entries()).map(([key, value]) => ({
key,
value,
score: this.calculateEvictionScore(key, value)
}));
// Sort by eviction score (higher = more likely to evict)
entries.sort((a, b) => b.score - a.score);
// Evict lowest scoring entries
const toEvict = entries.slice(0, entries.length - this.config.maxSize + 1);
toEvict.forEach(entry => this.cache.delete(entry.key));
}
}
Parallel Processing Optimization
Pro Tip: Resource-Aware Parallelization
Advanced hooks should dynamically adjust their resource usage based on system load and available capacity. This prevents hooks from overwhelming the development environment during peak usage.
// .kiro/hooks/utils/parallel-processor.js
class ResourceAwareProcessor {
constructor(config) {
this.config = config;
this.activeJobs = new Map();
this.resourceMonitor = new ResourceMonitor();
}
async processInParallel(tasks, context) {
const availableResources = await this.resourceMonitor.getAvailableResources();
const optimalConcurrency = this.calculateOptimalConcurrency(
tasks,
availableResources,
context
);
// Create task batches based on dependencies and resource requirements
const batches = await this.createTaskBatches(tasks, optimalConcurrency);
const results = [];
for (const batch of batches) {
// Process batch with dynamic resource allocation
const batchResults = await Promise.allSettled(
batch.map(task => this.processTask(task, availableResources))
);
results.push(...batchResults);
// Adjust resource allocation based on performance
await this.adjustResourceAllocation(batchResults, availableResources);
}
return results;
}
calculateOptimalConcurrency(tasks, resources, context) {
const cpuIntensiveTasks = tasks.filter(t => t.type === 'cpu-intensive').length;
const ioIntensiveTasks = tasks.filter(t => t.type === 'io-intensive').length;
const memoryIntensiveTasks = tasks.filter(t => t.type === 'memory-intensive').length;
// Calculate based on resource availability and task characteristics
const cpuConcurrency = Math.min(cpuIntensiveTasks, resources.availableCPUs);
const ioConcurrency = Math.min(ioIntensiveTasks, resources.ioCapacity);
const memoryConcurrency = Math.floor(resources.availableMemory /
this.config.averageMemoryPerTask);
// Consider system load and development environment impact
const systemLoadFactor = 1 - resources.systemLoad;
const devEnvironmentFactor = context.isDevelopmentTime ? 0.7 : 1.0;
return Math.floor(
Math.min(cpuConcurrency, ioConcurrency, memoryConcurrency) *
systemLoadFactor *
devEnvironmentFactor
);
}
}
Security and Compliance Considerations
Advanced hooks often handle sensitive data and system access, requiring robust security measures.
Secure Hook Execution
Security Warning
Advanced hooks can access sensitive project data, external services, and system resources. Always implement proper access controls, audit logging, and principle of least privilege.
// .kiro/hooks/security/secure-executor.js
class SecureHookExecutor {
constructor(config) {
this.config = config;
this.auditLogger = new AuditLogger();
this.accessController = new AccessController();
this.dataProtector = new DataProtector();
}
async executeHook(hookConfig, context) {
// Validate hook permissions
const permissions = await this.accessController.validatePermissions(
hookConfig.permissions,
context.user,
context.project
);
if (!permissions.isValid) {
throw new PermissionDeniedError(permissions.violations);
}
// Sanitize and protect sensitive data
const sanitizedContext = await this.dataProtector.sanitizeContext(context);
// Create secure execution environment
const executionEnv = await this.createSecureEnvironment({
permissions: permissions.granted,
resourceLimits: hookConfig.resourceLimits,
networkAccess: hookConfig.networkAccess,
fileSystemAccess: hookConfig.fileSystemAccess
});
// Log execution start
await this.auditLogger.logHookExecution({
hookName: hookConfig.name,
user: context.user,
permissions: permissions.granted,
timestamp: new Date().toISOString(),
contextHash: this.dataProtector.hashContext(sanitizedContext)
});
try {
// Execute hook in secure environment
const result = await executionEnv.execute(
hookConfig.agent,
sanitizedContext
);
// Audit successful execution
await this.auditLogger.logHookSuccess({
hookName: hookConfig.name,
duration: Date.now() - startTime,
resourceUsage: executionEnv.getResourceUsage()
});
return result;
} catch (error) {
// Audit execution failure
await this.auditLogger.logHookFailure({
hookName: hookConfig.name,
error: error.message,
stackTrace: this.sanitizeStackTrace(error.stack)
});
throw error;
} finally {
// Clean up secure environment
await executionEnv.cleanup();
}
}
async createSecureEnvironment(config) {
return {
async execute(agent, context) {
// Implement sandboxed execution
return await this.executeInSandbox(agent, context, config);
},
getResourceUsage() {
return this.resourceMonitor.getUsage();
},
async cleanup() {
await this.cleanupResources();
}
};
}
}
Monitoring and Observability
Production-grade hooks require comprehensive monitoring to ensure reliability and performance.
Hook Observability Platform
// .kiro/hooks/monitoring/observability.js
class HookObservability {
constructor(config) {
this.metricsCollector = new MetricsCollector();
this.traceCollector = new TraceCollector();
this.alertManager = new AlertManager();
}
async instrumentHook(hookConfig) {
const hookName = hookConfig.name;
return {
async execute(context) {
const traceId = generateTraceId();
const span = this.traceCollector.startSpan(hookName, traceId);
try {
// Record execution metrics
this.metricsCollector.increment(`hooks.${hookName}.executions`);
this.metricsCollector.gauge(`hooks.${hookName}.active`, 1);
const startTime = Date.now();
const result = await hookConfig.agent(context);
const duration = Date.now() - startTime;
// Record success metrics
this.metricsCollector.histogram(`hooks.${hookName}.duration`, duration);
this.metricsCollector.increment(`hooks.${hookName}.success`);
// Check for performance anomalies
await this.checkPerformanceAnomaly(hookName, duration);
span.setStatus({ code: 'OK' });
span.end();
return result;
} catch (error) {
// Record error metrics
this.metricsCollector.increment(`hooks.${hookName}.errors`);
this.metricsCollector.increment(`hooks.${hookName}.errors.${error.code}`);
// Alert on critical errors
if (this.isCriticalError(error)) {
await this.alertManager.sendAlert({
level: 'critical',
message: `Hook ${hookName} failed with critical error: ${error.message}`,
hookName,
traceId,
context: this.sanitizeContext(context)
});
}
span.recordException(error);
span.setStatus({ code: 'ERROR', message: error.message });
span.end();
throw error;
} finally {
this.metricsCollector.gauge(`hooks.${hookName}.active`, -1);
}
}
};
}
async checkPerformanceAnomaly(hookName, duration) {
const baseline = await this.getPerformanceBaseline(hookName);
if (duration > baseline.p95 * 2) {
await this.alertManager.sendAlert({
level: 'warning',
message: `Hook ${hookName} execution took ${duration}ms (baseline P95: ${baseline.p95}ms)`,
hookName,
metrics: { duration, baseline }
});
}
}
}
Best Practices for Production Deployment
Deploying advanced hooks in production environments requires careful consideration of reliability, performance, and maintainability.
Production Readiness Checklist

- Error Handling: Graceful degradation and recovery mechanisms
- Monitoring: Detailed metrics, logging, and alerting
- Security: Access controls, audit trails, and data protection
- Performance: Resource optimization and scalability testing
- Documentation: Clear operational procedures and troubleshooting guides
- Rollback Plan: Ability to quickly disable or rollback hooks
Gradual Rollout Strategy
// .kiro/hooks/deployment/gradual-rollout.js
class GradualRollout {
constructor(config) {
this.config = config;
this.featureFlags = new FeatureFlags();
this.metricsCollector = new MetricsCollector();
}
async deployHook(hookConfig) {
const rolloutPlan = {
phases: [
{ name: 'canary', percentage: 5, duration: '24h' },
{ name: 'limited', percentage: 25, duration: '48h' },
{ name: 'majority', percentage: 75, duration: '72h' },
{ name: 'full', percentage: 100, duration: 'ongoing' }
]
};
for (const phase of rolloutPlan.phases) {
console.log(`Starting rollout phase: ${phase.name} (${phase.percentage}%)`);
// Configure feature flag
await this.featureFlags.setPercentage(
`hook.${hookConfig.name}`,
phase.percentage
);
// Monitor phase performance
const phaseResults = await this.monitorPhase(hookConfig, phase);
// Check success criteria
if (!this.evaluatePhaseSuccess(phaseResults)) {
// Rollback on failure
await this.rollback(hookConfig, phase);
throw new RolloutFailureError(`Phase ${phase.name} failed criteria`);
}
// Wait for phase duration
await this.waitForPhaseDuration(phase.duration);
}
console.log(`Hook ${hookConfig.name} successfully rolled out to 100%`);
}
}
