Improve controllers performance

**Problem**
When working with hooks, the error messages could be more descriptive.

**Suggestion**
Improve error handling and add detailed error messages.

**Context**
This would help with debugging and maintenance.

No files or tests are named. Start by locating the controller and hook error-handling paths, then trace how failures are currently reported. Done means hook-related errors provide more descriptive messages and the existing behavior remains covered by appropriate checks.
