Send a GitHub webhook to a private URL▲72
I work on the OpenZiti project and I have a CI server that accepts GitHub webhooks, but I don't want to expose my server to the internet with open ports. I used the Python SDK for OpenZiti (overlay networking platform) to create a GitHub Action that sends the webhook to my private server via overlay instead of via the open internet. This GitHub repo is a template that I made to show you how it all works. You can use it right away to run the sample server (httpbin-go) and see the GitHub Action in...action.

SMTP Tunnel – A SOCKS5 proxy disguised as email traffic to bypass DPI▲140
A fast SOCKS5 proxy that tunnels your traffic through what looks like normal SMTP email, bypassing Deep Packet Inspection firewalls. How it works: - Client runs a local SOCKS5 proxy (127.0.0.1:1080) - Traffic is sent to server disguised as SMTP (EHLO, STARTTLS, AUTH) - DPI sees legitimate email session, not a VPN/proxy Features: - One-liner install on any Linux VPS - Multi-user with per-user secrets and IP whitelists - Auto-generated client packages (just double-click to run) - Auto-reconnect on connection loss - Works with any app that supports SOCKS5 Tech: Python/asyncio, TLS…

I made an online Webhook Tester▲43
Hi HN! Last year, I built LocalCan app in which you can develop apps using .local domains and Public URLs. Although it allows for testing webhooks too, I wanted to give back and create a free online tool specifically for that purpose! And so, I've made Webhook.cool Simply use your unique webhook URL to send any webhook to it from services like Shopify, Slack, Mailchimp, Trello, GitHub, PayPal, Discord, and Jira. Give it a try and let me know how if you have any feedback.
