We can definitely use phantomsection addcontentsline{toc}{chapter}{<name>} right after we begin the environments or type the relevant macro, which would include abstract, list of figures and list of tables in the ToC. Is here a way to patch these commands so that we no longer need to type phantomsection addcontentsline{toc}{chapter}{<name>}?

This question is meant to teach me how to patch commands with an example, not that I don't want to manually use phantomsection and addcontentsline
