shared-token gate

negative classification wins ties so nobody is falsely paged as positive

UFW blocks the port externally, only Traefik reaches it

What this record is

Questions we hear

Is cold-email event webhook receiver (per lead) automation for Instantly a product or a project?

It is a project. The queries on this page are specific to how one company had its Instantly set up: which fields carried the human identifier, which documents already existed, and where a human had to stay in the loop. A product cannot know any of that in advance, which is why the integration is the work.

Did this run in production?

Yes. It runs in production today as a systemd service on the VPS, port 8792, and this page is read out of the code that runs.

What happens when the automation is not sure?

It stops. This build carries 4 distinct kinds of check, and every one of them exists to hand the case to a person. Automating the confident cases and routing the rest is what makes an integration safe to leave running.

Can Data Jockey build this for us?

Book a call and we will scope it against the systems you already run. Data Jockey publishes no prices, so there is no figure on this page, and what a build costs depends on what your setup turns out to need.

Where these facts come from

Every call, table, check and setting above comes from the delivery record of this build, and each identifier in it was checked against the file that implements it by tools/capture-proof-of-work.mjs. The capture is committed at data/raw/dj-proof-of-work-capture-2026-09-07.json and records a sha256 of each source file. Generated 2026-09-07. No figure here was rounded, averaged or estimated.
