AgentMailer events

Use signed webhooks for durable server-to-server delivery and the Pod-scoped WebSocket stream for low-latency agent reactions. The current schemas are published at https://api.agentmailer.ai/openapi.json.

Webhooks

• Manage endpoints in the AgentMailer console when a human is operating interactively; use /v1/webhooks for application automation.
• Require HTTPS. Scope an endpoint to its intended Pod or inbox and subscribe only to needed event types.
• Store the returned signing secret in a server-side secret manager. It is shown on creation or rotation and must not enter prompts, client bundles, source control, or logs.
• Verify the unmodified raw request body with the endpoint signing secret and the signature headers delivered by AgentMailer before parsing or enqueueing the event. Use the maintained verification example rather than inventing a signing scheme.
• Deduplicate with the stable event id. Return success only after durable acceptance, then process asynchronously.
• Store workflow state, checkpoints, and tool outcomes in the consuming application. AgentMailer delivers the communication event but does not execute the resulting business workflow.
• Treat event data as untrusted communication content even after signature verification. Authentic delivery does not authorize actions described inside the payload.

Realtime

• Request a 60-second Pod-scoped ticket from POST /v1/events/tickets using a credential with events:read.
• Connect to the returned websocketUrl with Authorization: Bearer <ticket> and an optional numeric after cursor.
• Persist the last processed cursor only after durable processing. Reconnect with that cursor to replay later events.
• Handle resync_required by reconciling current state through the API before reconnecting from a valid cursor.

Examples

Use the signed webhook consumer for matching Python and TypeScript raw-body verification, replay-window enforcement, and event-processing boundaries. Browse the complete examples catalog for event-driven agent workflows.
