# Case Study: Hook-Backed Skill Synthesis
## Scenario
Goal: create a skill that enforces a deterministic check at a specific lifecycle or tool boundary.
## Input collection approach
This case collected:
1. official hook lifecycle and schema docs
2. security guidance for shell-executed hooks
3. examples of narrow matchers vs over-broad hooks
4. fallback behavior for environments without hooks
## Coverage matrix used
Required dimensions tracked during synthesis:
1. event and matcher scope
2. decision behavior
3. security boundaries
4. fallback behavior
5. portability constraints
## Synthesized artifacts produced
The resulting skill references included:
1. hook configuration example
2. safety checklist
3. fallback path without hooks
4. anti-pattern showing over-broad or unsafe hook scope
## What made this high quality
1. the hook scope was narrow and auditable
2. security assumptions were explicit
3. the skill still described what to do when hooks were unavailable
