webhooks

webhooks is a skill for Claude Code from vaisala-xweather/xweather-agent-skills. It costs 144 tokens per session (2,907 once invoked), scanned A, original, MIT.

A skill for building and troubleshooting an Xweather Webhooks receiver. Webhooks let Xweather push weather data to an HTTPS endpoint your application owns instead of making the application request the data repeatedly.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to design, build, secure, or debug a receiver for pushed Xweather data, while distinguishing receiver work from the separate subscription and endpoint-registration process.
Why use it?
It helps avoid frequent polling, which uses repeated requests and can delay unpredictable updates such as lightning, hail, alerts, or storm-cell changes.

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

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 7d ago.

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 — 244 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.

Xweather Webhooks

Xweather pushes data sets to an HTTPS endpoint you own, instead of your application polling data.api.xweather.com on a timer. The payload is byte-for-byte the same shape the Weather API returns, so existing response-parsing code is reusable with almost no change.

Webhooks are a premium add-on requiring a separate subscription, and endpoints are registered by Xweather staff — not self-service. There is no API call or dashboard toggle that turns this on. Say so early: the work splits into what the user can build today (the receiver) and what needs a conversation with their account executive (the subscription and registration).

When webhooks are the right answer

Reach for them when the user is polling frequently for data that changes unpredictably — lightning strikes, hail threats, new alerts, storm cell updates. Polling that on a short interval burns accesses continuously and still adds latency; push removes both problems.

Polling via the weather-api skill stays the better fit when the data is requested on demand (a user opens a page), when the update cadence is slow and predictable (daily normals, hourly temperatures), or when the user can't host a public HTTPS endpoint.

How a delivery works

Xweather sends an HTTP POST to the registered URL.

Method POST
Content-Type application/json
x-api-key A client-generated shared secret, proving the delivery came from Xweather. May be a query parameter instead of a header, if preferred.
Body The standard Xweather API response envelope — JSON or GeoJSON, whichever was configured

The endpoint must answer with a 2xx status — 202 is the conventional choice — and do it immediately. The response body is ignored.

Acknowledge first, process second. Any real work belongs in a background job, queue, or thread started after the status is written. A handler that parses, matches polygons, and sends notifications before responding will eventually exceed the delivery timeout, and a timeout is treated as a failed delivery.

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.
