Kiro Agent Hooks Automation Cookbook: 30 ready-to-use recipes

You're buried in repetitive dev work. Every time you save a file, you're manually triggering test runs, regenerating docs, or pushing updates through your pipeline. Hours disappear into tasks that should fire automatically.

This cookbook cuts through that friction. It gives you 30 battle-tested Kiro hook configurations-copy-paste ready-that automate your entire development lifecycle without the DevOps overhead.

• Test Automation (6 recipes): Pre-commit test triggers, parallel test execution hooks, coverage validation on save, failure notifications, regression detection on branch switches, and test-result caching strategies.

• Documentation (6 recipes): Auto-generate API docs on file change, sync README updates with code changes, build changelog entries from commits, manage version bumps, auto-format markdown, and publish docs to your static site.

You'll also get 18 additional recipes spanning CI/CD hooks, pre-push validations, code quality checks, linting automation, environment sync, build optimization, and deployment safety nets.

Inside you'll find:

- Complete hook schema reference with every field explained (no guessing which parameter does what).
- Real-world JSON configurations you can drop directly into `.kiro/hooks/`.
- Step-by-step walkthrough: validate, enable, observe, scale.
- Pattern explanations so you can adapt recipes to your stack.
- Troubleshooting tips for common hook failures.

Start with a single lightweight hook in your most painful workflow category. Copy the JSON, run the validation command, enable it, and watch it fire on your next save. Once you see the pattern work, layer in more automations without the complexity.

No prerequisite DevOps knowledge needed. No bash scripting required. Just paste, validate, and ship.

Delivered as a single PDF (print-friendly). You own it forever; updates included.
