Token cost

What it costs to keep this loaded

Counted locally with the o200k_base tokenizer, which is exact for GPT models; Claude uses its own tokenizer and its counts differ. Treat this as one consistent yardstick across the catalogue rather than a bill. Prices are per million input tokens.

Security

Grade A, and why

event-gateway scanned grade A with 0 findings against 26 rules in 11 categories — prompt injection, anti-refusal, data exfiltration, privilege escalation, supply chain, agent snooping, system-prompt leakage, SSRF and excessive agency — measured 4d ago.

The scan reads SKILL.md. This mod also ships 7 executable files (examples/express/src/index.js, examples/express/test/webhook.test.js, examples/fastapi/main.py, …), listed below but not scanned — reading those needs a real analyzer, not pattern matching.

A static scan of the body, not an audit. Every finding is printed with the line that produced it so you can judge whether it matters here. A mod is markdown that instructs an agent; that is exactly why what it instructs is worth reading.

Nothing flagged

None of the 26 patterns this scan looks for appear in this file: no shell pipes, no recursive deletes, no credential paths, no hidden text, no instruction-override or anti-refusal phrasing, no agent-config snooping. That is not a guarantee, it is the absence of the things that are checkable.

How it starts

The opening of the file, as written. The whole thing — 200 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.

Hookdeck Event Gateway

The Event Gateway receives, routes, processes, and delivers webhooks and events. The core model: a Source (ingestion endpoint with a unique https://hkdk.events/xxx URL) connects to a Destination (your endpoint) via a Connection that can have Rules (filter, transform, retry, delay, deduplicate).

Documentation

Always reference Hookdeck docs as the source of truth. See references/referencing-docs.md for how to fetch docs as markdown.

Authenticating without a browser (agents, CI, sandboxes)

hookdeck login needs a browser and hookdeck login -i needs a TTY. Use hookdeck ci, which reads HOOKDECK_API_KEY from the environment, before any other CLI command:

hookdeck ci        # exchanges the Project API key for CLI credentials
hookdeck whoami    # confirm the expected organization and project

Without this the CLI creates a temporary guest account and keeps going, so commands appear to succeed against a project the user cannot see. See references/cli-workflows.md#non-interactive-environments.

CLI command model

  • Prefer hookdeck gateway ... for Event Gateway resource management, querying, and analysis.
  • Keep root commands for shell/context workflows (hookdeck login, hookdeck whoami, hookdeck listen, hookdeck project ...).
  • Root hookdeck connection ... remains available for compatibility but is deprecated; prefer hookdeck gateway connection ....

Hookdeck CLI prerequisite

Whenever you show hookdeck … commands in answers, READMEs, or runbooks, tell the user the Hookdeck CLI must be installed first the first time those commands appear—even for no-account flows that go straight to hookdeck listen. Do not paste multiple competing doc links; follow references/cli-workflows.md#hookdeck-cli-prerequisite for standard wording, install examples, the official install URL, and the in-repo install section.

What this file has done since we first saw it

Hashed on every crawl. A supply-chain change to an agent config is a question of when, not whether, so the history is kept rather than the latest state alone.
