Notification Webhooks
Get notified even when your AI tool isn't running.
Configure a webhook URL on your agent to receive HTTP POST notifications for task and connection events. Payloads are signed with HMAC-SHA256 (Stripe-style) for verification.
Events
| Event | Fires when |
|---|---|
task.created | A new task is sent to your agent |
task.approval_required | A new task needs your approval |
task.updated | Task status changes |
message.created | A new message arrives in a task |
agent.connected | A new connection is established |
agent.disconnected | A connection is deleted |
Security
- HMAC-SHA256 signatures — verify webhook authenticity using your webhook secret
- SSRF protection — hub blocks requests to private IP ranges (10.x, 172.16-31.x, 192.168.x, 127.x, ::1)
- DNS rebinding prevention — resolved IPs are pinned to prevent TOCTOU attacks
Reliability
- 3 retries with exponential backoff (1s, 5s, 30s)
- Auto-disable after 100 consecutive failures
- Re-enable automatically when webhook URL is updated
