attentive-webhooks

attentive-webhooks is a skill for Claude Code, Codex from hookdeck/webhook-skills. It costs 64 tokens per session (1,654 once invoked), scanned A, a copy of adyen-webhooks, MIT.

A guide for receiving Attentive notifications and checking that they came from Attentive. Attentive is a service for SMS and email marketing events.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to process events such as SMS subscriptions or cancellations, email opens, and custom attribute changes.
Why use it?
It explains how to verify the exact request data with the correct signing key, avoiding failed checks caused by changing or reformatting the message.

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

attentive-webhooks 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 5d 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.

Attentive Webhooks

When to Use This Skill

  • How do I receive Attentive webhooks?
  • How do I verify Attentive webhook signatures?
  • Why is my x-attentive-hmac-sha256 signature verification failing?
  • How do I handle sms.subscribed, sms.unsubscribed, or email.opened events?
  • Understanding Attentive event types and payloads

Verification (core)

Attentive signs the raw request body with HMAC-SHA256 keyed on your per-webhook signing key (called the "client secret" in the dashboard) and sends the digest, hex-encoded, in the x-attentive-hmac-sha256 header. There is no timestamp in the signature (Attentive does not use the Standard Webhooks scheme), so compute the HMAC over the exact raw body and compare timing-safe. There is no official server-side SDK, so verify manually.

Node:

const crypto = require('crypto');

function verifyAttentiveWebhook(rawBody, signatureHeader, secret) {
  if (!signatureHeader) return false;
  const expected = crypto.createHmac('sha256', secret).update(rawBody).digest('hex');
  try {
    return crypto.timingSafeEqual(
      Buffer.from(signatureHeader, 'hex'),
      Buffer.from(expected, 'hex')
    );
  } catch {
    return false; // wrong length / non-hex input
  }
}

Python:

import hmac, hashlib

def verify_attentive_webhook(raw_body: bytes, signature_header: str, secret: str) -> bool:
    if not signature_header:
        return False
    expected = hmac.new(secret.encode("utf-8"), raw_body, hashlib.sha256).hexdigest()
    return hmac.compare_digest(expected, signature_header)

For complete handlers with route wiring, event dispatch, and tests, see:

Common Event Types

The event name is in the payload's type field (Attentive does not send an event-type header — only the signature header).

Event Triggered When
sms.subscribed Subscriber joins an SMS list
sms.unsubscribed Subscriber opts out of SMS
sms.sent An SMS message is sent to a subscriber
sms.inbound_message A subscriber replies via SMS
sms.message_link_click Subscriber clicks a link in an SMS
email.subscribed Subscriber joins an email list
email.unsubscribed Subscriber opts out of email
email.sent An email is sent to a subscriber
email.opened Subscriber opens an email
email.message_link_click Subscriber clicks a link in an email
custom_attribute.set A custom attribute is set on a subscriber

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.
