How to hook before "EDIT" in the visual editor?

I'm studying to create my own extension with Visual Editor, and I'm struggling to figure out how I can make a hook in the dialog pop up for the contents.


For example, I'm making a traditional tag extension, like <ABC> MY TEXT </ABC>

And, When I enter the Visual Editor, the tag can be edit through the pop-up box, and the "Code" section shows "MY TEXT". This is good.


Now, before giving the text of "MY TEXT" to the "Code" section in the pop-up box, I want to manipulate the "MY TEXT" and give the manipulated string to the "Code" section.


For example, I want to give "_MANIPULATED_ MY TEXT _DONE_" to the "Code" section in the pop-up box in the Visual Editor instead of "MY TEXT" string.


Can someone help me how I can achieve the goal, please?
