Webhook

An HTTP POST the platform makes to your endpoint when something finishes or changes — the push alternative to polling.

What is webhook?

A webhook is a URL you register so the platform can call you rather than the other way round. Twin sends two kinds: a job completion callback carrying the result, and a monitor change callback carrying the previous hash, the new hash and an excerpt. Delivery is best-effort with retries and never blocks the work that triggered it.

Why it matters

Polling a job you expect to take ten minutes wastes both sides. The cost of a push model is that you now own an endpoint that must authenticate what arrives — which is what the signature is for.

Put your agent to work. Keep the decision.

Give your agent a real browser, authorize the accounts it may use, and keep control of every step. Repeated runs compile into skills that replay without a model.
