Given a $\mathbb{C}$-linear category $\mathrm{C}$, let’s understand $\mathbf{HH}(\mathrm{C})$, the Hochschild homology of $\mathrm{C}$ as natural transformation. Then for any $A\in \mathbf{HH}(\mathrm{C})$,$E\in \mathrm{C}$, and $f, g\in \mathbf{End}(E,E)$ we can then deform (in a naive way) the composition of morphism $f\circ g$ as $A\circ(f\circ g)$.
However, when $f=g=\mathbf{Id}$, this deformation is not necessary preserving $\mathbf{Id}$, I wonder is there any other kind of deformation given by Hochschild homology that can preserve the $\mathbf{Id}$(probably in a non-naive way)?
