## Key Implementation Details

### 1. Environment Checker
```typescript
// Validates environment variables, Node.js version, and module dependencies
const result = await environmentChecker.check({
  requiredVars: ['NODE_ENV', 'API_KEY'],
  minNodeVersion: '14.0.0',
  requiredModules: ['fs', 'path']
});
```

### 2. Resource Checker
```typescript
// Validates system resources (CPU, memory, disk, load)
const result = await resourceChecker.check({
  minMemoryMB: 100,
  minCPUCores: 2,
  minDiskSpaceMB: 500,
  maxLoadAverage: 10
});
```

### 3. Quality Validator
```typescript
// Validates code quality metrics with weighted scoring
const result = await qualityValidator.validate({
  metrics: {
    complexity: 8,
    maintainability: 85,
    duplicatedLines: 5,
    testCoverage: 0.95
  },
  thresholds: {
    maxComplexity: 10,
    minMaintainability: 70,
    maxDuplication: 10,
    minCoverage: 0.90
  }
});
// Returns: { valid: true, score: 0.87, violations: [] }
```

### 4. Performance Validator
```typescript
// Detects performance regressions with percentile analysis
const result = await performanceValidator.validate({
  metrics: {
    executionTime: 5000,
    memoryUsage: 200000000,
    latencies: [10, 15, 20, 100, 150]
  },
  baseline: {
    executionTime: 2000,
    memoryUsage: 100000000
  },
  regressionThreshold: 0.2 // 20% allowed regression
});
// Returns: { valid: false, regressions: { executionTime: 1.5 } }
```

### 5. Rollback Manager
```typescript
// Create snapshot and rollback on error
await rollbackManager.createSnapshot({
  id: 'pre-deploy',
  files: ['src/app.ts', 'src/config.ts']
});

// Check if rollback needed
const shouldRollback = await rollbackManager.shouldTriggerRollback({
  metrics: { errorRate: 0.25 },
  thresholds: { maxErrorRate: 0.1 }
}); // Returns: true

// Execute rollback
const result = await rollbackManager.executeRollback({
  snapshotId: 'pre-deploy',
  reason: 'High error rate detected'
});
// Returns: { success: true, filesRestored: 2 }
```

## Integration with VerificationHookManager

### Before (Simplified Implementation)
```typescript
async executePreTaskVerification(options) {
  // Hardcoded checks
  const passed = true;
  const score = 0.95;
  return { passed, score, checks: ['env', 'resource'] };
}
```

### After (Real Implementation)
```typescript
async executePreTaskVerification(options) {
  // Real checkers with aggregated results
  const envResult = await this.environmentChecker.check({...});
  const resourceResult = await this.resourceChecker.check({...});
  const permResult = await this.permissionChecker.check({...});
  const configResult = await this.configurationChecker.check({...});

  // Aggregate scores
  const score = totalScore / checkCount;
  return { passed, score, checks: [...all checks] };
}
```

## Usage Examples

### Example 1: Pre-Task Verification
```typescript
const hookManager = new VerificationHookManager(memory);

const result = await hookManager.executePreTaskVerification({
  task: 'test-generation',
  context: {
    requiredVars: ['NODE_ENV'],
    minMemoryMB: 100,
    minCPUCores: 1,
    config: { coverage: 0.95 }
  }
});

if (!result.passed) {
  console.error('Pre-task verification failed:', result.checks);
}
```

### Example 2: Post-Task Validation with Rollback
```typescript
// Create snapshot before task
await rollbackManager.createSnapshot({
  id: 'before-deploy',
  files: ['dist/app.js']
});

// Execute task and validate
const validationResult = await hookManager.executePostTaskValidation({
  task: 'deployment',
  result: {
    coverage: { lines: 75 },
    performance: { executionTime: 5000 }
  }
});

// Check if rollback needed
if (!validationResult.valid) {
  const shouldRollback = await rollbackManager.shouldTriggerRollback({
    metrics: { currentAccuracy: 0.75, baselineAccuracy: 0.95 },
    thresholds: { maxAccuracyDegradation: 0.1 }
  });

  if (shouldRollback) {
    await rollbackManager.executeRollback({
      snapshotId: 'before-deploy',
      reason: 'Validation failure detected'
    });
  }
}
```

## Design Patterns Used

### 1. Strategy Pattern
- Each checker/validator implements a consistent interface
- Checkers handle pre-task verification strategies
- Validators handle post-task validation strategies

### 2. Composite Pattern
- VerificationHookManager composes multiple checkers and validators
- Aggregates results from all components

### 3. Memento Pattern
- RollbackManager implements snapshot/restore pattern
- Preserves file states for recovery

### 4. Observer Pattern
- EventEmitter-based event system
- Hooks emit events for monitoring

## Error Handling

### Graceful Degradation
- Checkers skip unavailable resources
- Validators continue on partial data
- Rollback tracks and reports errors

### Validation Error Details
```typescript
{
  passed: false,
  checks: ['environment-check', 'resource-check'],
  details: {
    missing: ['API_KEY'],
    violations: [{ path: '/file.txt', missing: ['write'] }]
  }
}
```

## Performance Characteristics

### Time Complexity
- Environment checks: O(n) where n = number of checks
- Resource checks: O(1) system calls
- Permission checks: O(m) where m = number of files
- Validators: O(1) to O(n log n) for percentile calculations

### Space Complexity
- Snapshot storage: O(k) where k = total file size
- Memory cache: O(n) where n = number of snapshots
- Results: O(1) per check/validation

## Future Enhancements

### Phase 2 Possibilities
1. **Advanced Metrics**:
   - Cyclomatic complexity calculation
   - Halstead metrics
   - Technical debt scoring

2. **Machine Learning Integration**:
   - Predictive rollback triggers
   - Anomaly detection
   - Pattern learning

3. **Distributed Validation**:
   - Multi-node validation
   - Consensus-based decisions
   - Distributed snapshots

4. **Real-time Monitoring**:
   - Live metric streaming
   - Dashboard integration
   - Alert system
