2 AWS engineers say hooks stop an AI agent with a fault
Hooks are deterministic Python code in the agent loop, and the engineers do not try to control the agent from the external side.
Elizabeth Fuentes Leone and Sandhya Subramani are 2 engineers at Amazon Web Services (AWS). They made and deployed a customer agent live on the AI Engineer podcast. They say hooks are the answer when an agent goes out of control. Hooks are control points in Python code around the language model. They stop bad behavior.
