note: >-
  FireHydrant ships a real, documented webhook surface — with configuration CRUD in the REST API,
  HMAC request signing, a delivery history endpoint, and published example payloads — but publishes
  NO AsyncAPI document and no event-schema registry. The event catalog below is transcribed from
  the webhooks documentation and the OpenAPI; nothing here is invented. Emitting `type: Webhooks`,
  not `type: AsyncAPI`.
delivery:
  transport: http-post
  destination: one endpoint URL per webhook configuration
  fan_out: >-
    Each webhook configuration sends to exactly one destination; multiple destinations require
    multiple configurations.
  status: Active | Inactive (inactivating preserves the config without delivering)
security:
  signature_header: fh-signature
  algorithm: HMAC-SHA256
  encoding: hex digest
  signed_content: raw request body
  secret: per-webhook shared secret set at configuration time

    FireHydrant is also an event CONSUMER — Signals ingests alerts from 20+ named event sources
    (Alertmanager, AWS CloudWatch, Datadog, Grafana, Honeycomb, Sentry, PagerDuty, Pingdom,
    Dynatrace, Chronosphere, CircleCI, Cloudflare, Azure Monitor, MongoDB Atlas, SignalFX,
    Site24x7, StatusCake, GCP Service Health, Stackdriver, email, and a generic webhook source).

gaps:
- No AsyncAPI document is published.
- No JSON Schema is published for any webhook payload; only a prose example.
- No event-type identifier appears in the payload envelope — a consumer must infer the event from the diff.
- No documented retry/backoff policy for failed deliveries, though a deliveries endpoint exists.
