  ProofDraw documents a real webhook surface but publishes no AsyncAPI document and no event-payload
  schemas. The OpenAPI carries no `webhooks:` object either (it is OpenAPI 3.0.3, which predates that
  keyword). Event payload shapes are deferred to docs/api-spec.md, which returns 404 — so the catalog below
  is the event NAMES and the delivery/signature contract as published, with payload bodies genuinely
  unspecified. Nothing here is invented.
transport: HTTPS POST
subscription_model:
  mechanism: per-draw callback_url
  set_on:
    - POST /v1/draws
    - POST /v1/draws/instant
  field: callback_url
  constraints: URL, max 500 chars, optional
  note: >-
    There is no account-level webhook endpoint, no webhook management API, no endpoint list/update/delete,
    and no event-subscription filter. Each draw carries its own callback URL, set at create time only.
security:
  signature_header: X-ProofDraw-Signature
  signature_format: 'sha256=<hex>'
  algorithm: HMAC-SHA256
  secret_field: callback_secret
  secret_delivery: >-
    Returned ONLY on the creating response (POST /v1/draws or POST /v1/draws/instant) when callback_url was
    supplied. Not retrievable afterwards — subsequent reads of the draw omit it. There is no documented
    rotation or re-issue path, so losing the secret means losing the ability to verify that draw's
    deliveries.
  signed_payload_definition: undocumented
  timestamp_header: null
  replay_protection: undocumented
events:
  - name: draw.sealed
    trigger: The entry list has been hashed, committed publicly, and bound to a future drand round.
    payload_schema: undocumented
  - name: draw.resolved
    trigger: >-
      The drand round published and the winning row was computed. Delivered whether resolution came from a
      synchronous wait, an explicit POST /v1/draws/{id}/resolve, or the auto-resolver cron.
    payload_schema: undocumented
  - name: draw.cancelled
    trigger: An open draw was cancelled via DELETE /v1/draws/{id}.
    payload_schema: undocumented
delivery:
  latency: >-
    The auto-resolver cron runs every minute, so a webhook can arrive up to ~60s (≈30s average) after the
    drand round publishes. Callers needing the result sooner are told to run their own timer and call
    POST /v1/draws/{id}/resolve.
  retries: undocumented
  ordering: undocumented
  timeouts: undocumented
why_it_matters: >-
  The docs make the webhook the durable contract rather than an optional extra: the synchronous `wait: true`
  path is hard-capped at 60 seconds, so any draw with round_offset_seconds over ~45s WILL return `sealed`
  rather than `resolved` and the result arrives only by webhook or by polling. For an agent, the webhook is
  the primary completion signal for scheduled draws.
gaps:
  - No AsyncAPI (or OpenAPI 3.1 webhooks) document — event payloads cannot be typed by a consumer.
  - No published retry policy, delivery timeout, or ordering guarantee.
  - No replay protection documented (no timestamp header, no nonce) alongside the HMAC signature.
  - callback_secret cannot be rotated or re-read; no account-level webhook endpoint management.
