track: github-app-webhook-20260530 — GitHub App + webhook + Cloudflare tunnel transport #13

Description

@amondnet

Track: github-app-webhook-20260530 (type: feature)

Add a real-time, webhook-based inbound transport to the GitHub channel plugin (plugins/github/server.ts) as an opt-in alternative to the existing PAT + REST polling.

Scope

  • GitHub App auth (app id / private key / installation id) for webhook mode; PAT + polling stays the default.
  • Local webhook receiver with X-Hub-Signature-256 verification, handling issue_comment events (parity with current polling).
  • Cloudflare tunnel — quick (TryCloudflare, default) and named (configurable) modes; channel spawns cloudflared, obtains the public URL, and auto-registers it as the App webhook target.
  • Reuses the existing mention-match → sender-gating → dedup → emit pipeline and outbound tools.

Transport selection

CLAUDE_GITHUB_TRANSPORT=poll|webhook (defaults to poll — non-breaking).

Out of scope

  • Cloudflare deployment (hosted Worker/service) — future follow-up track.
  • Assisted App Manifest creation; PR review (diff-line) comments; issue/PR "opened" body mentions.
