Hook results now carry a marker for whether an ask decision was held for a call handled by the server. When it is held, that marker is passed back along with the reason.\n\n**Why**\n\nThis is part of how permission decisions are held for server-side review.\n\n- Area: Hooks\n- Tier: Under the hood\n- Useful: 1\/5\n- Signal: 2\/5\n- Scope: individual\n- Heads-up: no"}
