Expose via Cloudflare Tunnel or ngrok, then paste the URL into Fireflies Settings → Developer Settings → Webhook URL. Optional webhook secret: ```bash echo "YOUR_SECRET" > ~/.openclaw/secrets/fireflies-webhook-secret.txt ``` ``` ### Technical Analysis Webhook authentication is enforced only when the local secret file exists. If the file is absent, the condition guarding `verifySignature` is false and every request reaching `/` or `/webhook` is accepted.

{ size += chunk.length; if (size > MAX_BODY_BYTES) { res.writeHead(413); res.end('Payload too large'); req.destroy(); return; } chunks.push(chunk); }); ``` 6. Validate the parsed payload against a strict schema, including allowed event types and the expected `meetingId` format. 7. Add rate limiting, request timeouts, and replay protection where Fireflies provides a delivery identifier or timestamp. 8. Bind explicitly to `127.0.0.1` by default and require an explicit configuration change for non-loopback exposure. 9. Update `SKILL.md` so webhook authentication is mandatory rather than optional. ]]>
