Event Gateway

Inbound event infrastructure. 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.

Outbound event delivery to HTTP, SQS, RabbitMQ, Pub/Sub, and more.

Provider Webhook Skills

For provider-specific webhook knowledge (Stripe, Shopify, GitHub, etc.), see hookdeck/webhook-skills. The event-gateway 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 does not prompt (details: provider-webhooks-checklist.md).
