Hello Marten,
I'm not certain what best practice is but would something like this
work? It uses the 'org-src-mode-hook' to set a buffer local hook.
#+begin_src elisp
(add-hook
'org-src-mode-hook
(lambda ()
(when (derived-mode-p 'emacs-lisp-mode)
(add-hook 'before-save-hook #'macrostep-collapse-all nil 'local))))
#+end_src
Morgan
