Routes to the correct Hookdeck product skill. Covers Event Gateway (inbound: receive webhooks, webhook endpoints, local dev, event queue), Outpost (outbound: send webhooks to customers) and Inspect (free webhook test URLs with no account: see what a webhook sent). Use when working with any Hookdeck product and unsure which skill to use.
# Hookdeck | What you want to do | Skill | |---------------------|-------| | **Receive and process webhooks** | event-gateway | | **Route events between third-party services** | event-gateway | | **Build asynchronous APIs (IoT, SDKs, web analytics)** | event-gateway | | **Test and debug webhooks on localhost** | event-gateway | | **Send webhooks/events to customers** | outpost | | **Get a free webhook test URL, or see what a webhook sent (no account)** | inspect | Both event-gateway and inspect can forward webhooks to localhost. With no Hookdeck account, or when the user just needs a URL, use inspect. For a lasting setup with an account, use event-gateway. ## Event Gateway Inbound [event infrastructure](https://hookdeck.com/docs/). One skill covers all use cases: staged integration workflow, connections, rules, authentication, local dev, monitoring, and API. For Event Gateway operations and analysis, prefer `hookdeck gateway ...`; root `hookdeck connection ...` remains a deprecated compatibility alias. - Skill: [event-gateway](https://github.com/hookdeck/agent-skills/blob/main/skills/event-gateway/SKILL.md) - Install: `npx skills add hookdeck/agent-skills --skill event-gateway` - Docs: https://hookdeck.com/docs/ ## Outpost Outbound event delivery to HTTP, SQS, RabbitMQ, Pub/Sub, and more. - Skill: [outpost](https://github.com/hookdeck/agent-skills/blob/main/skills/outpost/SKILL.md) - Install: `npx skills add hookdeck/agent-skills --skill outpost` - Docs: https://hookdeck.com/docs/outpost ## Inspect Free webhook test URLs, with no account or login: create a URL with one HTTP call, wait for webhooks to arrive, and read their headers and exact bodies as JSON. - Skill: [inspect](https://github.com/hookdeck/agent-skills/blob/main/skills/inspect/SKILL.md) - Install: `npx skills add hookdeck/agent-skills --skill inspect` - Docs: https://inspect.hookdeck.com/llms.txt ## Provider Webhook Skills For provider-specific webhook knowledge (Stripe, Shopify, GitHub, etc.), see [hookdeck/webhook-skills](https://github.com/hookdeck/webhook-skills). The [event-gateway](https://github.com/hookdeck/agent-skills/blob/main/skills/event-gateway/SKILL.md) skill references these during the scaffold stage. **Non-interactive install:** use `-y -g` on `npx skills add hookdeck/webhook-skills --skill <provider>-webhooks` so the [Skills CLI](https://github.com/vercel-labs/skills) does not prompt (details: [provider-webhooks-checklist.md](https://github.com/hookdeck/agent-skills/blob/main/skills/event-gateway/references/provider-webhooks-checklist.md)).
