From f491a9ad7d15cd453bbe3cafd70ab9ca3e42bf4d Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Claude Date: Mon, 11 May 2026 10:51:27 +0000 Subject: [PATCH 1/2] feat: add mailgun-webhooks skill for Mailgun email webhook handling Adds a complete skill for receiving and verifying Mailgun webhooks across Express, Next.js, and FastAPI. Mailgun is unusual in delivering the signature inside the request body (not a header) as a top-level signature object; the handler computes HMAC-SHA256 over timestamp+token (no separator) using the HTTP Webhook Signing Key and compares hex digests with timing-safe equality. Includes optional parent-signature handling for subaccount events, full coverage of the common event types (accepted, rejected, delivered, failed with severity, opened, clicked, unsubscribed, complained, stored, list_member_uploaded), and 33 passing tests across the three frameworks. https://claude.ai/code/session_01NNTgQRJss1V7gyzzJ9rjnB --- README.md | 1 + providers.yaml | 23 ++ skills/mailgun-webhooks/SKILL.md | 247 ++++++++++++++++++ .../examples/express/.env.example | 10 + .../examples/express/README.md | 71 +++++ .../examples/express/package.json | 23 ++ .../examples/express/src/index.js | 155 +++++++++++ .../examples/express/test/webhook.test.js | 217 +++++++++++++++ .../examples/fastapi/.env.example | 9 + .../examples/fastapi/README.md | 64 +++++ .../mailgun-webhooks/examples/fastapi/main.py | 152 +++++++++++ .../examples/fastapi/requirements.txt | 6 + .../examples/fastapi/test_webhook.py | 194 ++++++++++++++ .../examples/nextjs/.env.example | 6 + .../examples/nextjs/README.md | 66 +++++ .../nextjs/app/webhooks/mailgun/route.ts | 170 ++++++++++++ .../examples/nextjs/package.json | 27 ++ .../examples/nextjs/test/webhook.test.ts | 183 +++++++++++++ .../examples/nextjs/vitest.config.ts | 15 ++ .../mailgun-webhooks/references/overview.md | 88 +++++++ skills/mailgun-webhooks/references/setup.md | 118 +++++++++ .../references/verification.md | 224 ++++++++++++++++ 22 files changed, 2069 insertions(+) create mode 100644 skills/mailgun-webhooks/SKILL.md create mode 100644 skills/mailgun-webhooks/examples/express/.env.example create mode 100644 skills/mailgun-webhooks/examples/express/README.md create mode 100644 skills/mailgun-webhooks/examples/express/package.json create mode 100644 skills/mailgun-webhooks/examples/express/src/index.js create mode 100644 skills/mailgun-webhooks/examples/express/test/webhook.test.js create mode 100644 skills/mailgun-webhooks/examples/fastapi/.env.example create mode 100644 skills/mailgun-webhooks/examples/fastapi/README.md create mode 100644 skills/mailgun-webhooks/examples/fastapi/main.py create mode 100644 skills/mailgun-webhooks/examples/fastapi/requirements.txt create mode 100644 skills/mailgun-webhooks/examples/fastapi/test_webhook.py create mode 100644 skills/mailgun-webhooks/examples/nextjs/.env.example create mode 100644 skills/mailgun-webhooks/examples/nextjs/README.md create mode 100644 skills/mailgun-webhooks/examples/nextjs/app/webhooks/mailgun/route.ts create mode 100644 skills/mailgun-webhooks/examples/nextjs/package.json create mode 100644 skills/mailgun-webhooks/examples/nextjs/test/webhook.test.ts create mode 100644 skills/mailgun-webhooks/examples/nextjs/vitest.config.ts create mode 100644 skills/mailgun-webhooks/references/overview.md create mode 100644 skills/mailgun-webhooks/references/setup.md create mode 100644 skills/mailgun-webhooks/references/verification.md diff --git a/README.md b/README.md index a94bebe..12f41c5 100644 --- a/README.md +++ b/README.md @@ -44,6 +44,7 @@ Skills for receiving and verifying webhooks from specific providers.

The Signature Is in the Body, Not a Header + +Most webhook providers put the signature in a header. Mailgun does not. Look for `req.body.signature`, **not** `req.headers['x-mailgun-signature']`. + +### 2. No Separator Between `timestamp` and `token` + +The signed content is the raw concatenation `timestamp + token`. There is **no** dot, dash, colon, or newline between them. A common bug is writing `${timestamp}.${token}` (Stripe style) — that will never verify. + +### 3. JSON Parsing Is Fine + +Because the signature only covers `timestamp + token` (not the body), you can freely parse the JSON before verifying. There's no need for `express.raw()` or `request.body()` byte handling. + +### 4. Wrong Key + +The HTTP Webhook Signing Key is **different** from your API key. It's listed separately in **Sending → API Keys** under "HTTP webhook signing key". If verification always fails, double-check you're using the right key. + +### 5. Timing-Safe Comparison + +Always use `crypto.timingSafeEqual` (Node) or `hmac.compare_digest` (Python) — never `===` or `==` — to compare signatures. Mismatched lengths throw in Node, so wrap in `try/catch`. + +### 6. Replay Attacks + +The `signature` object is identical on every retry of the same event, so a leaked payload can be replayed. Cache the `token` value (e.g., in Redis with a 24h TTL) and reject duplicates: + +```javascript +const seen = await redis.set(`mg:${signature.token}`, '1', 'EX', 86400, 'NX'); +if (seen === null) { + return res.status(200).send('Duplicate'); // 200 stops Mailgun retries +} +``` + +### 7. Stale Timestamps + +Optionally reject very old webhooks to limit the replay window. Stay lenient — Mailgun's retry queue can deliver events several hours late: + +```javascript +const ageSeconds = Math.floor(Date.now() / 1000) - parseInt(signature.timestamp, 10); +if (ageSeconds > 60 * 60 * 24) { // 24 hours + return res.status(400).send('Stale webhook'); +} +``` + +## Debugging Verification Failures + +If verification fails, walk through these checks: + +1. **Confirm you're reading from the body**, not a header: + ```javascript + console.log('Signature object:', req.body.signature); + ``` +2. **Compute and log the expected hex digest** — compare side-by-side: + ```javascript + const expected = crypto + .createHmac('sha256', signingKey) + .update(req.body.signature.timestamp + req.body.signature.token) + .digest('hex'); + console.log('Expected:', expected); + console.log('Got: ', req.body.signature.signature); + ``` +3. **Verify the key**: log the first/last 4 chars of the signing key (never log the full key) to confirm it matches the dashboard value. +4. **Test with Mailgun's "Test webhook" button** in the dashboard — known-good signatures help isolate the bug. + +## Security Best Practices + +- **Always verify before processing** — reject unsigned or invalid payloads with HTTP 400. +- **Use HTTPS endpoints** — never accept webhooks over plain HTTP. +- **Cache the `token`** for replay protection. +- **Don't log signing keys or full payloads** in production (payloads may contain recipient email addresses — PII). +- **Return 200 quickly** so Mailgun considers the delivery successful; do heavy work asynchronously. From 099faf43aa3eb3e4b4107d3843a4d1087600450a Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Phil Leggetter Date: Mon, 11 May 2026 13:06:15 +0100 Subject: [PATCH 2/2] chore(mailgun): normalize Hookdeck CLI to `npx hookdeck-cli` with source arg Applies the new project convention from PR #40: use `npx hookdeck-cli listen --path /webhooks/` everywhere instead of `hookdeck listen --path /webhooks/`. Skips the global-install prereq (webhook-skills is provider-neutral) and passes the required `[source]` positional so the command is copy-paste- runnable without falling into an interactive prompt. https://claude.ai/code/session_01NNTgQRJss1V7gyzzJ9rjnB --- skills/mailgun-webhooks/SKILL.md | 7 +------ skills/mailgun-webhooks/examples/express/README.md | 2 +- skills/mailgun-webhooks/examples/nextjs/README.md | 2 +- skills/mailgun-webhooks/references/setup.md | 9 ++------- 4 files changed, 5 insertions(+), 15 deletions(-) diff --git a/skills/mailgun-webhooks/SKILL.md b/skills/mailgun-webhooks/SKILL.md index 5d8e722..a122acb 100644 --- a/skills/mailgun-webhooks/SKILL.md +++ b/skills/mailgun-webhooks/SKILL.md @@ -202,13 +202,8 @@ Optionally reject very stale timestamps (e.g., > 1 hour old), but stay lenient ## Local Development ```bash -# Install Hookdeck CLI for local webhook testing -npm install -g hookdeck-cli -# or -brew install hookdeck/hookdeck/hookdeck - # Start tunnel (no account needed) -hookdeck listen 3000 --path /webhooks/mailgun +npx hookdeck-cli listen 3000 mailgun --path /webhooks/mailgun ``` ## Reference Materials diff --git a/skills/mailgun-webhooks/examples/express/README.md b/skills/mailgun-webhooks/examples/express/README.md index 2618938..3786980 100644 --- a/skills/mailgun-webhooks/examples/express/README.md +++ b/skills/mailgun-webhooks/examples/express/README.md @@ -35,7 +35,7 @@ Server runs on http://localhost:3000.
