AgentMail Webhooks

Use webhooks when a public HTTPS server should receive AgentMail events. Use websockets.md for local processes without a public URL.

Create

agentmail webhooks create \
  --url https://your-app.example.com/webhooks/agentmail \
  --event-type message.received \
  --inbox-id support@agentmail.to \
  --client-id support-agentmail-webhook \
  --format json

Store the returned secret immediately.

Handle

Headers: svix-id, svix-timestamp, svix-signature.

1. Verify the raw request body with the webhook secret.
2. Dedupe by svix-id or event_id.
3. Return 200 quickly.
4. Process asynchronously.
5. For message.received, load the thread with the CLI and reply if needed.

Act on message.received only. Treating message.sent or delivery events as inbound work creates loops.
