public-ingress

public-ingress is a skill for Claude Code, Codex from vellum-ai/vellum-assistant. It costs 30 tokens per session (2,953 once invoked), scanned D, original, MIT.

A guide for exposing a local assistant to the internet through an ngrok tunnel. A tunnel gives outside services a public address that can forward requests to a computer running locally.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to configure public callback access for Telegram webhooks, OAuth redirects, and other inbound webhook requests.
Why use it?
It helps external services reach local webhook and OAuth callback endpoints when direct internet access is unavailable. It also checks whether a managed callback route should be used instead.

About the project

Vellum Assistant is a personal AI assistant that remembers information about users, learns their preferences, and takes actions across connected apps. It is intended for people who want an assistant that can manage conversations, unfinished work, and proactive notifications over time. The catalogue skills, hooks, instruction, and setting configure or extend how the assistant works.

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 D, and why

public-ingress scanned grade D with 3 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 9d 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.

A mod that escalates privileges can change anything on the machine, not only the project.

Not a fault in itself. Listed so you know the mod talks to something, and to what.

If `publicBaseUrl` is already set and the tunnel is running (check via `curl -s http://127.0.0.1:4040/api/tunnels`), tell the user the current status and ask if they want to reconfigure or if this is sufficient.

How it starts

The opening of the file, as written. The whole thing — 336 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.

You are setting up and managing a public ingress tunnel so that external services (Telegram webhooks, OAuth callbacks, etc.) can reach the local Vellum gateway. This skill uses ngrok to create a secure tunnel and persists the public URL as ingress.publicBaseUrl.

If managed platform callback routing is available, stop and do not continue with ngrok. In platform-managed deployments, Telegram/Twilio/OAuth callback routing should use the platform callback route flow instead of local public ingress.

Overview

The Vellum gateway listens locally and needs a publicly reachable URL for:

  • Telegram webhook delivery
  • Google/Slack OAuth redirect callbacks
  • Any other inbound webhook traffic

This skill installs ngrok, configures authentication, starts a tunnel, discovers the public URL, and saves it to the assistant's ingress config.

On Windows, use the PowerShell blocks instead of the POSIX ones.

Step 0: Reject Managed Callback Environments

Check whether managed platform callback routing is available:

assistant platform status --json

If the result shows isPlatform: true and available: true, stop here. Tell the user that this assistant should use the platform callback route flow instead of ngrok, and do not install or start ngrok.

Step 1: Check Current Ingress Status

First, check whether ingress is already configured:

assistant config get ingress.publicBaseUrl
assistant config get ingress.enabled

The local gateway URL is available as the $INTERNAL_GATEWAY_BASE_URL environment variable (defaults to http://127.0.0.1:7830).

The commands return:

  • ingress.publicBaseUrl - currently configured public ingress URL (if any)
  • ingress.enabled - whether ingress is enabled

If publicBaseUrl is already set and the tunnel is running (check via curl -s http://127.0.0.1:4040/api/tunnels), tell the user the current status and ask if they want to reconfigure or if this is sufficient.

On Windows, check the tunnel with:

Invoke-RestMethod http://127.0.0.1:4040/api/tunnels

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.

public-ingress is a skill published in the GitHub repository vellum-ai/vellum-assistant (1,234 stars, last pushed today), licensed MIT. It adds 30 tokens to every session and 2,953 once invoked, about $0.0002 per session on Opus 5. A static security scan graded it D with 3 findings (asks for root, downloads and executes remote code, makes network calls). No closer match exists in the catalogue, so it is treated as the original; first seen 2026-09-03.
