I thought I read in the docs somewhere ages ago that you can add additional agent hooks in your ElasticCI stack but for the life of me I can’t find it.

If we want to add a `pre-exit` hook to our agents without clobbering the one the stack comes with is there a way to do that? Or is it something we need to do on bootstrap?

Thanks

Peer
