+# Webhook Subscriptions
+
+Create dynamic webhook subscriptions so external services (GitHub, GitLab, Stripe, CI/CD, IoT sensors, monitoring tools) can trigger Hermes agent runs by POSTing events to a URL.
+
+## Setup (Required First)
+
+The webhook platform must be enabled before subscriptions can be created. Check with:
+```bash
+hermes webhook list
+```
+
+If it says "Webhook platform is not enabled", set it up:
+
+### Option 1: Setup wizard
+```bash
+hermes gateway setup
+```
+Follow the prompts to enable webhooks, set the port, and set a global HMAC secret.
+
+### Option 2: Manual config
+Add to `~/.hermes/config.yaml`:
+```yaml
+platforms:
+  webhook:
+    enabled: true
+    extra:
+      host: "0.0.0.0"
+      port: 8644
+      secret: "generate-a-strong-secret-here"
+```
+
+### Option 3: Environment variables
+Add to `~/.hermes/.env`:
+```bash
+WEBHOOK_ENABLED=true
+WEBHOOK_PORT=8644
+WEBHOOK_SECRET=generate-a-strong-secret-here
+```
+
+After configuration, start (or restart) the gateway:
+```bash
+hermes gateway run
+# Or if using systemd:
+systemctl --user restart hermes-gateway
+```
+
+Verify it's running:
+```bash
+curl http://localhost:8644/health
+```
+
+## Commands
+
+All management is via the `hermes webhook` CLI command:
+
+### Create a subscription
+```bash
+hermes webhook subscribe <name> \
+  --prompt "Prompt template with {payload.fields}" \
+  --events "event1,event2" \
+  --description "What this does" \
+  --skills "skill1,skill2" \
+  --deliver telegram \
+  --deliver-chat-id "12345" \
+  --secret "optional-custom-secret"
+```
+
+Returns the webhook URL and HMAC secret. The user configures their service to POST to that URL.
+
+### List subscriptions
+```bash
+hermes webhook list
+```
+
+### Remove a subscription
+```bash
+hermes webhook remove <name>
+```
+
+### Test a subscription
+```bash
+hermes webhook test <name>
+hermes webhook test <name> --payload '{"key": "value"}'
+```
+
+## Prompt Templates
+
+Prompts support `{dot.notation}` for accessing nested payload fields:
+
+- `{issue.title}` — GitHub issue title
+- `{pull_request.user.login}` — PR author
+- `{data.object.amount}` — Stripe payment amount
+- `{sensor.temperature}` — IoT sensor reading
+
+If no prompt is specified, the full JSON payload is dumped into the agent prompt.
+
+## Common Patterns
+
+### GitHub: new issues
+```bash
+hermes webhook subscribe github-issues \
+  --events "issues" \
+  --prompt "New GitHub issue #{issue.number}: {issue.title}\n\nAction: {action}\nAuthor: {issue.user.login}\nBody:\n{issue.body}\n\nPlease triage this issue." \
+  --deliver telegram \
+  --deliver-chat-id "-100123456789"
+```
+
+Then in GitHub repo Settings → Webhooks → Add webhook:
+- Payload URL: the returned webhook_url
+- Content type: application/json
+- Secret: the returned secret
+- Events: "Issues"
+
+### GitHub: PR reviews
+```bash
+hermes webhook subscribe github-prs \
+  --events "pull_request" \
+  --prompt "PR #{pull_request.number} {action}: {pull_request.title}\nBy: {pull_request.user.login}\nBranch: {pull_request.head.ref}\n\n{pull_request.body}" \
+  --skills "github-code-review" \
+  --deliver github_comment
+```
+
+### Stripe: payment events
+```bash
+hermes webhook subscribe stripe-payments \
+  --events "payment_intent.succeeded,payment_intent.payment_failed" \
+  --prompt "Payment {data.object.status}: {data.object.amount} cents from {data.object.receipt_email}" \
+  --deliver telegram \
+  --deliver-chat-id "-100123456789"
+```
+
+### CI/CD: build notifications
+```bash
+hermes webhook subscribe ci-builds \
+  --events "pipeline" \
+  --prompt "Build {object_attributes.status} on {project.name} branch {object_attributes.ref}\nCommit: {commit.message}" \
+  --deliver discord \
+  --deliver-chat-id "1234567890"
+```
+
+### Generic monitoring alert
+```bash
+hermes webhook subscribe alerts \
+  --prompt "Alert: {alert.name}\nSeverity: {alert.severity}\nMessage: {alert.message}\n\nPlease investigate and suggest remediation." \
+  --deliver origin
+```
+
+### Alertmanager: monitoring alerts with automatic RCA
+
+Alertmanager sends a grouped payload with `status`, `commonLabels`, `commonAnnotations`, and an `alerts` array. Use the top-level common fields in the template — individual alerts inside the `alerts` array are NOT accessible via dot notation.
+
+```bash
+hermes webhook subscribe alertmanager-rca \
+  --prompt 'Alertmanager Event - Status: {status}
+Severity: {commonLabels.severity}
+Alert: {commonLabels.alertname}
+Instance: {commonLabels.instance}
+Summary: {commonAnnotations.summary}
+Description: {commonAnnotations.description}
+
+Perform a root cause analysis. Investigate the affected system using available
+tools (Prometheus queries, SSH to hosts, API calls). Report findings concisely.' \
+  --description "Alertmanager alerts → automatic RCA" \
+  --deliver telegram \
+  --deliver-chat-id "<your-chat-id>"
+```
+
+Alertmanager config (receiver side):
+```yaml
+route:
+  receiver: hermes-rca
+  group_by: ['alertname', 'instance']
+  group_wait: 30s
+  group_interval: 5m
+  repeat_interval: 4h
+
+receivers:
+  - name: hermes-rca
+    webhook_configs:
+      - url: http://<hermes-ip>:8644/webhooks/alertmanager-rca
+        send_resolved: true
+        max_alerts: 0
+```
+
+**Pitfall**: After changing Prometheus alerting rules, stale alerts can remain in Alertmanager's cache. Restart Alertmanager (`docker restart alertmanager`) to flush them.
+
+**Pitfall — Alertmanager auth gap**: Alertmanager 0.27.0 supports `http_config.authorization` (Bearer/Basic) but does NOT support custom headers like `X-Gitlab-Token` or `X-Hub-Signature-256`. Hermes historically validated only GitHub/GitLab/Svix/generic HMAC headers — NOT `Authorization: Bearer`. This means an Alertmanager → Hermes webhook will get HTTP 401 "Invalid signature" even with the correct secret configured. Fix: either (a) patch `gateway/platforms/webhook.py` `_validate_signature()` to accept `Authorization: Bearer <secret>` as a plain-token match, or (b) set the route secret to `INSECURE_NO_AUTH` (loopback only). See `references/alertmanager-auth-integration.md` for the full patch and config.
+
+See `proxmox-ve-administration` skill → `references/alertmanager-webhook-setup.md` for the full setup guide including PVE-specific alerting rule pitfalls.
+
+### Direct delivery (no agent, zero LLM cost)
+
+For use cases where you just want to push a notification through to a user's chat — no reasoning, no agent loop — add `--deliver-only`. The rendered `--prompt` template becomes the literal message body and is dispatched directly to the target adapter.
+
+Use this for:
+- External service push notifications (Supabase/Firebase webhooks → Telegram)
+- Monitoring alerts that should forward verbatim
+- Inter-agent pings where one agent is telling another agent's user something
+- Any webhook where an LLM round trip would be wasted effort
+
+```bash
+hermes webhook subscribe antenna-matches \
+  --deliver telegram \
+  --deliver-chat-id "123456789" \
+  --deliver-only \
+  --prompt "🎉 New match: {match.user_name} matched with you!" \
+  --description "Antenna match notifications"
+```
+
+The POST returns `200 OK` on successful delivery, `502` on target failure — so upstream services can retry intelligently. HMAC auth, rate limits, and idempotency still apply.
+
+Requires `--deliver` to be a real target (telegram, discord, slack, github_comment, etc.) — `--deliver log` is rejected because log-only direct delivery is pointless.
+
+## Security
+
+- Each subscription gets an auto-generated HMAC-SHA256 secret (or provide your own with `--secret`)
+- The webhook adapter validates signatures on every incoming POST
+- Static routes from config.yaml cannot be overwritten by dynamic subscriptions
+- Subscriptions persist to `~/.hermes/webhook_subscriptions.json`
+
+## How It Works
+
+1. `hermes webhook subscribe` writes to `~/.hermes/webhook_subscriptions.json`
+2. The webhook adapter hot-reloads this file on each incoming request (mtime-gated, negligible overhead)
+3. When a POST arrives matching a route, the adapter formats the prompt and triggers an agent run
+4. The agent's response is delivered to the configured target (Telegram, Discord, GitHub comment, etc.)
+
+## CRITICAL: Webhook Agent Toolset Is Restricted by Default
+
+The default `hermes-webhook` toolset (`_HERMES_WEBHOOK_SAFE_TOOLS` in `toolsets.py`) only includes `web_search`, `web_extract`, `vision_analyze`, and `clarify` — **no terminal, no file, no SSH, no code execution**. This is intentional for security (webhook payloads are untrusted), but it means a webhook-triggered agent **cannot investigate anything locally**.
+
+If the webhook use case requires local investigation (RCA, SSH to hosts, file reads, Prometheus queries), you MUST add a `webhook` entry to `platform_toolsets` in `~/.hermes/config.yaml`:
+
+```yaml
+platform_toolsets:
+  cli:
+    - browser
+    - terminal
+    - file
+    - web
+    # ... (full list)
+  webhook:
+    - browser
+    - code_execution
+    - delegation
+    - file
+    - memory
+    - session_search
+    - skills
+    - terminal
+    - todo
+    - vision
+    - web
+```
+
+After adding this, restart the gateway (`hermes gateway restart` from a separate shell — cannot restart from inside the gateway process). The webhook-triggered agent will then have the same investigative tools as a CLI session.
+
+**Without this config change, webhook-triggered agents can only search the web and analyze images — they cannot run commands, read files, or SSH anywhere.**
+
+## Troubleshooting
+
+If webhooks aren't working:
+
+1. **Is the gateway running?** Check with `systemctl --user status hermes-gateway` or `ps aux | grep gateway`
+2. **Is the webhook server listening?** `curl http://localhost:8644/health` should return `{"status": "ok"}`
+3. **Check gateway logs:** `grep webhook ~/.hermes/logs/gateway.log | tail -20`
+4. **Signature mismatch?** Verify the secret in your service matches the one from `hermes webhook list`. GitHub sends `X-Hub-Signature-256`, GitLab sends `X-Gitlab-Token`. Alertmanager sends `Authorization: Bearer <credentials>` via `http_config.authorization` — Hermes supports this only if the `Authorization: Bearer` patch is applied (see `references/alertmanager-auth-integration.md`); otherwise it returns 401 "Invalid signature".
+5. **Cannot restart gateway from inside the gateway?** If you're running inside the Hermes process (e.g., a CLI session served by the gateway), `systemctl --user restart hermes-gateway` is blocked by a safety guard (SIGTERM would kill the running command). Workaround: create a one-shot cronjob with `schedule: '1m'` that runs the restart command — it executes in a fresh session outside the gateway process. Clean up the cronjob afterwards.
+6. **Firewall/NAT?** The webhook URL must be reachable from the service. For local development, use a tunnel (ngrok, cloudflared).
+7. **Wrong event type?** Check `--events` filter matches what the service sends. Use `hermes webhook test <name>` to verify the route works.
+8. **Agent can't investigate?** The default webhook toolset is restricted (see "CRITICAL" section above). Add `webhook` to `platform_toolsets` in config.yaml to grant terminal/file/web access.
