A hook call used to record only how it was taken; its run's answer went
to the chat alone and was lost to the call once the job was pruned. Now
`bot_hook_events` keeps `response`, `response_message_id` and
`responded_at`, written on every call a run took in when that run ends
(completed, failed, lost, stopped or cancelled) by
`recordHookCallResponse` in the job helpers, and calls turn done or
failed. The Calls view searches what calls sent and what runs answered,
filters by status and pages; Show all loads one call whole. Bots get
`search_hook_calls` and `read_hook_call` for their own hooks (never in a
hook call's own run), with payloads always marked as outside data.
Calls are kept for the app setting `hook_events_keep_days` (Settings >
General, default now 30 days). The caller still only gets 202 Queued.

A bot hook (bot_hooks) is a secret URL, POST /api/hooks/<token>, whose
calls queue the hook's brief plus the raw body as a task, per user and
bot like a routine. Only the token's hash is kept (shown once, rotatable);
an optional HMAC-SHA256 signing secret is stored encrypted. Calls are
rate limited per address and per hook, recorded in bot_hook_events
(pruned daily), deduplicated by delivery id, and a call while the last
run still waits joins its brief instead of queueing another. The payload
is fenced data and HookRunNote tells the bot never to take instructions
from it; failed runs retry like routines.
A hook can instead watch a computer's browser notifications: the app
installs a small watcher that owns org.freedesktop.Notifications on the
sandbox's session bus, so Chrome hands it every notification (it only
looks for that service at start-up, so Chrome is restarted once, never
mid-task), and it posts each one to its hooks, optionally filtered.
Computers reach the app at COMPUTER_APP_URL or the app container's name.
Users make hooks in the conversation's Hooks modal and manage them all
on /admin/routines; bots never create or change hooks.
