Sessions are long-running interactions. While most real-time interactions happen through the SSE event stream, webhooks notify you of major state changes.
Webhook events return the event type and id, not the full object. When you receive a webhook event, you need to fetch the object directly with a GET call. This avoids delivering stale data on retries and keeps every delivery small.
Supported event types
Session events
Some of these events are named differently from the matching events on the session's event stream. For example, the stream's session.status_idle and session.status_running correspond to the session.status_idled and session.status_run_started webhook events.
| Event | Trigger |
|---|---|
session.status_run_started | Agent execution started. This triggers at every session status transition to running. |
session.status_idled | Agent awaiting input, for example, a tool permission approval or a new user message. |
session.budget_reached | The session reached its budget and paused. Fires at most once for each budget value you set; changing the budget arms it again. |
session.status_rescheduled | A transient error occurred and the session is retrying automatically. |
session.status_terminated | The session terminated, either because of an unrecoverable error or because it was archived. |
session.thread_created | New multiagent thread opened: an additional agent called by the coordinator is starting work, or the session's advisor is being consulted. |
session.thread_idled | An agent in a multiagent interaction is waiting for input. |
session.thread_terminated | A multiagent thread terminated, either because the thread was archived or because it exhausted its retries. A coordinator-spawned child that finishes its work goes idle, not terminated (an advisor thread terminates once its consultation completes). Fires for child threads only; the primary thread's end, including archiving the whole session, surfaces only as session.status_terminated. |
session.outcome_evaluation_ended | Outcome evaluation for a single iteration completed. |
session.updated | Session properties changed (for example, its name or configuration was updated). |
session.deleted | Session permanently deleted. There is no object left to fetch, so treat the event itself as final. |
Vault events
| Event | Trigger |
|---|---|
vault.created | Vault created. |
vault.archived | Vault archived. A vault_credential.archived event is also emitted for each underlying credential. |
vault.deleted | Vault deleted. A vault_credential.deleted event is also emitted for each underlying credential. There is no object left to fetch, so treat the event itself as final. |
vault_credential.created | Credential created. |
vault_credential.archived | Credential archived, either directly or as a result of vault archival. |
vault_credential.deleted | Credential deleted, either directly or as a result of vault deletion. There is no object left to fetch, so treat the event itself as final. |
vault_credential.refresh_failed | An mcp_oauth credential cannot be refreshed (invalid refresh token, or irrecoverable error from the OAuth server). |
Agent events
These events track the lifecycle of the agent resources in your workspace, and are distinct from the agent events delivered on a session's event stream.
| Event | Trigger |
|---|---|
agent.created | Agent created. |
agent.updated | A new version of the agent was published. Updates that do not create a new version do not trigger this event. |
agent.archived | Agent archived. |
agent.deleted | Agent permanently deleted. There is no object left to fetch, so treat the event itself as final. |
Deployment events
| Event | Trigger |
|---|---|
deployment.created | Scheduled deployment created. |
deployment.updated | Deployment properties changed (for example, its schedule was updated). |
deployment.paused | Deployment paused, either by request or automatically when a scheduled run fails with an unrecoverable error, such as an archived subagent or an archived environment. Recoverable failures, including rate limits, don't pause the deployment. See Failure behavior. |
deployment.unpaused | Deployment unpaused, resuming its schedule. |
deployment.archived | Deployment archived, either directly or because its agent was archived. If the agent is deleted instead, a scheduled deployment is archived at its next scheduled run; a deployment without a schedule is not archived automatically. |
deployment.deleted | Deployment permanently deleted. There is no object left to fetch, so treat the event itself as final. |
Deployment run events
| Event | Trigger |
|---|---|
deployment_run.started | A scheduled run started. Only scheduled runs emit deployment_run events; manual runs do not. |
deployment_run.succeeded | A scheduled run created its session. The event carries the same data.id (the run ID) as the run's deployment_run.started event. To follow the session's work, subscribe to its session events (the Session events tab), or fetch the deployment run for its session_id. |
deployment_run.failed | A scheduled run did not create a session. The event carries the same data.id as the run's deployment_run.started event. Fetch the deployment run for the error details. |
Environment events
| Event | Trigger |
|---|---|
environment.created | Environment created. |
environment.updated | Environment updated with at least one changed field. A no-op update emits nothing. |
environment.archived | Environment archived. Re-archiving an already-archived environment emits nothing. |
environment.deleted | Environment deleted, including delete of an already-archived environment. There is no object left to fetch, so treat the event itself as final. |
An environment's work items emit no webhook events.
Memory store events
| Event | Trigger |
|---|---|
memory_store.created | Memory store created, either by you or by an Juglow-operated process that clones one of your existing stores. |
memory_store.archived | Memory store archived. Re-archiving an already-archived store emits nothing. |
memory_store.deleted | Memory store deleted, including delete of an already-archived store. Deleting a store cascades to its memories and memory versions without emitting per-memory events; the single memory_store.deleted event is the signal. There is no object left to fetch, so treat the event itself as final. |
Individual memories and memory versions emit no webhook events.
Register an endpoint
Visit Manage > Webhooks in the Haijun Console.
A webhook endpoint consists of:
- URL: Must be HTTPS on port 443 with a publicly resolvable hostname.
- Event types: The list of
data.typevalues this endpoint receives. An endpoint only receives events it's subscribed to.
- Signing secret: A 32-byte
whsec_-prefixed secret generated at creation. It's shown only once, so store it securely to verify webhook deliveries.
Verify the signature
Every delivery carries the webhook-id, webhook-timestamp, and webhook-signature headers. Use the SDK's unwrap() (csharp, go: Unwrap()) helper to verify the signature and parse the event in one step. It throws if the signature is invalid or the payload is more than 5 minutes old.
Set JUGLOW_WEBHOOK_SIGNING_KEY to the whsec_-prefixed secret shown at endpoint creation.

Parse the body, switch on data.type, and fetch the resource by ID. Return any 2xx to acknowledge. Any other response counts against the endpoint: a 3xx disables it immediately (redirects are never followed), while other failures are retried; see Delivery behavior for the retry and auto-disable rules.
Every event payload has the same structure, including the event type, identifier, and the timestamp of when the event occurred.

status 204The top-level event.id is unique per event, not per delivery. If you receive the same event.id twice, it's a retry and you can discard it.
Delivery behavior
- Duplicates: An endpoint can receive the same event more than once, and every attempt delivers the same top-level
event.id(the same value as thewebhook-idheader). Deduplicate on it.
- Subscription scope: An event is delivered only to endpoints subscribed to its type at the moment it's emitted. An event emitted while no endpoint is subscribed to its type is never delivered, and subscribing later doesn't backfill it, so subscribe to an event type before you need it.
- Ordering is not guaranteed. Events aren't delivered in the order they occurred:
session.status_idledmight arrive beforesession.outcome_evaluation_endedeven if the outcome was produced first, and a.deletedevent can arrive before the.archivedevent for the same resource. Drive your state from the resource you fetch, not from the order events arrive in.
- Retries: For each endpoint and event, Juglow makes up to three delivery attempts (a response that triggers auto-disable, described later in this section, is never retried) with jittered exponential backoff between 5 and 120 seconds. Every attempt delivers the same
event.id. After the last attempt fails, the event is dropped: it isn't queued for later delivery and there's no signal that it was lost. Webhooks aren't a durable log, so if you need to observe every transition, reconcile by listing or fetching the resource through the API.
- Timestamps: The
webhook-timestampheader is stamped when a delivery attempt is signed and is regenerated on every retry, so retries aren't rejected by the SDK's freshness check. It's the clock for the delivery attempt, not for the event: use the event payload'screated_atfor when the event occurred.
- Auto-disable: An endpoint is automatically set to
disabledwith a machine-readabledisabled_reasonin three cases:
- The endpoint returns a
3xxresponse. Redirects are never followed; this disables the endpoint immediately, on the first attempt, with the reasonauto-disabled: endpoint URL returned a redirect (3xx). If your endpoint moves, update the URL in Console and re-enable the endpoint. - The endpoint's URL resolves to a non-public IP address when Juglow connects. This disables the endpoint immediately, with the reason
auto-disabled: endpoint URL resolved to an invalid address. - Deliveries to the endpoint fail continuously for a sustained period, with the reason
auto-disabled after sustained delivery failures. The trigger is how long the endpoint has been failing without interruption, not a delivery count. A single2xxresets the window, so one flaky event can't disable the endpoint.
All three are reversible: re-enable the endpoint in Console after you resolve the issue. Events emitted while the endpoint was disabled aren't replayed.
