## Overview
Implement robust webhook systems for event-driven architectures, enabling real-time communication between services and third-party integrations.
## When to Use
- Third-party service integrations (Stripe, GitHub, Shopify)
- Event notification systems
- Real-time data synchronization
- Automated workflow triggers
- Payment processing callbacks
- CI/CD pipeline notifications
- User activity tracking
- Microservices communication
## Quick Start
Minimal working example:
```typescript
import crypto from "crypto";
import axios from "axios";
interface WebhookEvent {
id: string;
type: string;
timestamp: number;
data: any;
}
interface WebhookEndpoint {
url: string;
secret: string;
events: string[];
active: boolean;
}
interface DeliveryAttempt {
attemptNumber: number;
timestamp: number;
statusCode?: number;
error?: string;
duration: number;
}
// ... (see reference guides for full implementation)
```

## Best Practices
### ✅ DO
- Use HMAC signatures for verification
- Implement idempotency with event IDs
- Return 200 OK quickly, process asynchronously
- Implement exponential backoff for retries
- Include timestamp to prevent replay attacks
- Use queue systems for reliable delivery
- Log all delivery attempts
- Provide webhook testing tools
- Document webhook payload schemas
- Implement webhook management UI
- Allow filtering by event types
- Support webhook versioning
### ❌ DON'T
- Send sensitive data in webhooks
- Skip signature verification
- Block responses with heavy processing
- Retry indefinitely
- Expose internal error details
- Send webhooks to localhost (in production)
- Forget timeout handling
- Skip rate limiting

IncludedAccess comprehensive LaTeX templates, formatting requirements, and submission guidelines for major scientific publication venues (Nature, Science, PLOS, IEEE, ACM), academic conferences (NeurIPS, ICML, CVPR, CHI), research posters, and grant proposals (NSF, NIH, DOE, DARPA). This skill should be used when preparing manuscripts for journal submission, conference papers, research posters, or grant proposals and need venue-specific formatting requirements and templates.
let-fate-decide
IncludedDraws the 12 Houses of the Zodiac Tarot spread to inject entropy into planning when prompts are vague, ambiguous, or casually delegated. Interprets the spread to guide next steps. Use when the user says 'let fate decide', 'YOLO', 'whatever', 'idk', or other nonchalant phrases, makes Yu-Gi-Oh references, or when you are about to arbitrarily pick between multiple reasonable approaches. Prefer over ask-questions-if-underspecified when the user's tone is casual or playful rather than precision-seeking.
