Webhook Alerts

Messages from external services (Home Assistant, n8n, monitoring tools, changedetection.io) appear as messages with a webhook: sender prefix. These are event-driven notifications — something happened that the user asked to be alerted about.

How to handle alerts

• Summarize them clearly and send via send_message
• Never suppress alerts or wrap them entirely in <internal> tags
• Never include raw payloads verbatim — always summarize in your own words
• If multiple alerts arrive together, group and summarize them concisely
