feat(relay): forward webhook requests to the environment's tunnel

[juliusmarminge]

A webhook URL that points straight at an environment's tunnel hostname is tied to that hostname. Senders need a stable public URL instead.

The relay now forwards GET, POST, PUT and PATCH on /v1/hooks/:environmentId/:hookId/:token to that environment's managed tunnel (/api/hooks/:hookId/:token) and stores nothing. The endpoints are a hooks group in the RelayApi, so they appear in the relay's OpenAPI. They are raw, so the forwarder sends the encoded path segments and the body on unchanged. It passes the method, query and exact body bytes. Hop-by-hop, cf-* and x-forwarded-* headers are stripped; authorization and signature headers are kept.

• Status and body from the environment come back unchanged. location and set-cookie are dropped.
• Lookup: the environment's endpoint is resolved with the checks already used for connect, now shared as validateManagedEndpoint. An unknown or unready environment returns 404.
• Offline or failing environment: a network error or Cloudflare's 530 returns 503, a timeout after 8 s returns 504, and redirects are not followed.
• Limits: bodies over 1 MiB get 413. A Cloudflare RateLimit binding (HOOK_RATE_LIMIT) allows 60 requests per 60 s per hook and lets requests through if the limiter errors. The environment enforces its own per-task limit as well.
• CORS: hook paths skip the relay's CORS layer, so responses carry no access-control-* headers. OPTIONS and other methods fall through to the relay's 404.
• Privacy: tokens and bodies never reach traces. The server span sees a redacted URL, the outgoing client span is turned off, and signature and token headers are redacted.

docs/internals/t3-connect.md now records this as the one case where the relay proxies traffic.

Verification

HookForwarder.test.ts covers byte-exact forwarding and header filtering, the query being kept, status and body passing through, 413 (from content-length and from the streamed body), 404 (unknown environment and endpoint not ready), 503 (network error and 530), 504, OPTIONS getting no preflight, 429, redirects not being followed, and the token never reaching a span.

All 355 relay tests pass, and typecheck and lint are clean.

Not yet run against a deployed stage. The first deploy creates the HOOK_RATE_LIMIT binding (namespace 1001).

Approvability

Verdict: Not approved

Macroscope's review found this PR not approvable — This PR adds a new unauthenticated production webhook-forwarding capability with database routing, Cloudflare rate limiting, request-secret redaction, and upstream tunnel behavior. An unresolved High-severity finding also indicates that GET payload bytes are discarded, potentially breaking signature validation or changing the payload processed by the environment.

Not approved because:

• 1 blocking correctness issue found at or above your repo's Minimum Blocking Severity

No code changes detected at 3230279. Prior analysis still applies.

📝 Walkthrough

Walkthrough

The relay adds public automation hook routes. It finds and validates managed environment endpoints, applies request and rate limits, forwards requests through environment tunnels, and redacts sensitive hook data from traces.

Changes

Automation hook forwarding

Layer / File(s)	Summary
Managed endpoint lookup and validation infra/relay/src/environments/EnvironmentLinks.ts, infra/relay/src/environments/EnvironmentConnector.ts, infra/relay/src/environments/*.test.ts, infra/relay/src/agentActivity/*.test.ts, infra/relay/src/http/Api.test.ts	The relay looks up active managed links by environment and validates their endpoints. Test doubles implement the new lookup method.
Hook request validation and forwarding packages/contracts/src/relay.ts, infra/relay/src/hooks/HookForwarder.ts, infra/relay/src/hooks/HookForwarder.test.ts	The relay adds GET, POST, PUT, and PATCH hook routes. The forwarder validates paths, enforces body and rate limits, filters headers, forwards requests, and handles upstream responses. Tests cover forwarding, response handling, limits, failures, and trace redaction.
Route, rate-limit, and trace integration infra/relay/src/worker.ts, infra/relay/src/http/Api.ts, docs/internals/t3-connect.md	The worker registers the hook API and configures its Cloudflare rate limiter. API middleware bypasses CORS handling for hook paths and redacts hook URLs and sensitive headers in traces. The documentation describes stateless forwarding and verification boundaries.
