Webhook HMAC Signature Verification
Executable code examples in Python, Node.js, and Go for validating inbound SMS webhook signatures against Twilio, Telnyx, and SMSRiver specs.
Implementation Walkthrough
Capture Raw Request Body
Ensure your web framework does not parse or modify the raw bytes before computing the cryptographic hash.
Extract Signature Header
Retrieve the `X-SMSRiver-Signature` or `X-Twilio-Signature` header from the incoming HTTP request.
Constant-Time Comparison
Always use `hmac.compare_digest` or `crypto.timingSafeEqual` to prevent timing attacks.
Supported MCP Agent Tools
Discover supported countries, inventory counts, and carrier capabilities by source type.
Check line types, SMS capabilities, carrier limitations, and rental costs for a phone number or ISO country.
Create an isolated synthetic test inbox for deterministic webhook integration testing without real carriers.
Inject zero-carrier-cost synthetic SMS inbound events directly into webhook endpoints for CI/CD test automation.
Simulate carrier drops, 10DLC rejections, DND blocks, and queue timeouts to verify retry handling.
Query recorded test events, delivery status, latency, and raw carrier webhook payloads within plan retention.
Replay an existing test event to re-trigger local webhooks or reproduce failed integration test cases.
Inspect current billing plan, monthly quota, consumed requests, and remaining units across REST and MCP.
