Summary

Implements inbound event-driven triggers allowing external services (GitHub Actions, alert relays, cron scripts, Slack webhooks) to wake bots with trigger: "webhook". Closes #195.

Changes

  • Added "webhook" to RunTrigger schema in packages/contracts and packages/db.
  • Added POST /api/v1/bots/:botId/webhook endpoint in @rakazo/api that formats JSON or text event payloads into thread messages and wakes the bot asynchronously.
  • Added unit test in apps/api/src/webhook.test.ts.

Summary by CodeRabbit

  • New Features

    • Added inbound webhooks for bots, supporting JSON and plain-text payloads.
    • Webhook events can start bot runs and return message and run details.
    • Added webhook-enabled routines alongside scheduled routines.
    • Added webhook setup, endpoint details, authentication key rotation, and one-shot run options.
    • Added validation requiring each routine to have a schedule or webhook trigger.
    • Added duplicate-event protection and oversized-payload handling.
  • Bug Fixes

    • Webhook-triggered runs are now correctly preserved in activity and event updates.

📝 Walkthrough

Walkthrough

The API now supports authenticated bot webhooks. Routines can use webhook triggers without cron schedules. The web app provides webhook configuration, secret rotation, and updated routine editing flows. Webhook run triggers persist through contracts and frontend event handling.

Changes

Webhook-triggered routines

Layer / File(s) Summary
Routine and webhook data contracts
packages/contracts/src/domain.ts, packages/contracts/src/runs.ts, packages/contracts/src/rpc.ts, packages/db/prisma/*, packages/db/src/events.ts, packages/db/src/repos.ts
Schemas, RPC inputs, database models, and message inputs now support webhook-enabled routines and webhook-triggered runs.
Routine persistence and webhook secret rotation
apps/api/src/router.ts, packages/adapters/src/child-bots.ts
Routine create and update paths persist webhook state and handle webhook-only routines. Bot webhook secrets can be rotated and are deleted with their bots.
Inbound webhook processing
apps/api/src/webhook.ts, apps/api/src/app.ts, apps/api/src/webhook.test.ts
The route authenticates bearer tokens, bounds and parses payloads, builds prompts, sends webhook-triggered messages, queues continuation jobs, and returns identifiers. Tests cover authentication, formatting, payload types, idempotency keys, and size limits.
Routine editor integration
apps/web/src/pages/RoutineEditor.tsx, apps/web/src/pages/Shell.tsx, apps/web/src/pages/RoutineSchedule.tsx
The routine editor supports schedule and webhook triggers, secret rotation, one-shot run times, validation, and save/delete/test-run actions.
Trigger event and UI validation
apps/web/src/lib/thread-events.ts, apps/web/src/lib/thread-events.test.ts, apps/web/e2e/*
Frontend event handling preserves webhook triggers. End-to-end tests use the updated routine editor controls and assertions.

Estimated code review effort: 4 (Complex) | ~60 minutes

Merge Risk: 🟡 Moderate · up to 7b5da

The PR adds a public, secret-authenticated webhook that persists caller-supplied content and wakes bots. A leaked bot secret can exercise the bot’s existing authority, while deliveries without stable identifiers can create duplicate messages and runs, and JSON null input may still return a 500. These concrete risks should be fixed or explicitly accepted before merge.

Most changes support webhook-triggered routines, but the auth lifecycle E2E assertion change is unrelated to issue #195. Several broad routine UI and test-flow changes also extend beyond the linked issue's core webhook objective.

Greptile Summary

The PR adds authenticated inbound webhook triggers for bots and extends routines to support webhook-based execution.

  • Validates a bot-specific bearer secret before creating a webhook-triggered message and run.
  • Reads request bodies once with bounded streaming and preserves JSON, plaintext, and malformed-JSON payloads.
  • Adds webhook secret rotation, routine trigger configuration, persistence migrations, and trigger propagation through contracts and thread events.

Confidence Score: 5/5

The PR appears safe to merge because both previously reported webhook failures are resolved and no blocking failure remains.

No blocking failure remains.

Exercise the webhook route instead of duplicating its formatting logic.

These tests never call POST /api/v1/bots/:botId/webhook. They can pass if the route is missing or if request parsing, bot lookup, persistence, or job enqueueing is broken. Use app.request(...) with JSON, text, 404, and enqueue-failure cases.

Authenticate POST /api/v1/bots/:botId/webhook with a bot-scoped secret
(EncryptedSecretStore), reject missing/wrong auth without leaking bot
existence, cap payload size, and replace the no-op unit test with route
tests. Add rotateWebhookSecret plus a small Advanced settings control.

2828-2842: 🩺 Stability & Availability | 🔵 Trivial | ⚡ Quick win

Surface test-run failures.

onTestRun has no catch. If rpc.routines.testRun or refreshThread rejects, the editor shows no error and the rejection becomes an unhandled promise rejection, because RoutineEditor binds this callback directly to onClick. Set routineError like the save path does.

♻️ Proposed refactor
                   routineRunPending.current = true;
                   setRunningRoutine(true);
