Enable AI agents to process webhooks and RSS feeds using native MCP tools for streamlined, event-driven automation and data handling.
hooklaw is an application to manage webhooks and connect them with different MCP servers. It helps automate tasks by linking webhook events to actions using AI agents. You can run it on your own computer, keeping control and security in your hands.
hooklaw allows you to use simple recipes that connect any webhook to an MCP server. This means when one system triggers an event, actions can happen automatically on the other system without your manual work. The app uses AI agents to help manage these connections, making automation smarter and easier.
It supports many protocols and tools, including popular ones like OpenAI and Anthropic. You keep full control over your data since hooklaw runs on your machine and uses "Bring Your Own Key" (BYOK) methods for security.

After installation finishes, find the hooklaw app in your Start menu or on your Desktop. Open the app by clicking its icon.
hooklaw will start and show you its main window where you can set up connections, create recipes, and manage AI agents.
The main part of hooklaw is building "recipes." A recipe tells the software to listen to a webhook and then perform actions on an MCP server. Here is how to begin using them:
hooklaw uses AI to help automate and handle complex tasks. You can add AI agents to your recipes to improve decision-making.
You can choose prebuilt agents or create your own using the interface. The app supports agents based on popular AI models.
The app keeps a log of all webhook events and actions taken. This lets you check that automation works and troubleshoot any issues.
hooklaw runs on your own computer. This means your data stays private. You control all keys and tokens.
The app supports BYOK (Bring Your Own Key) so you can use your own security credentials. There is no need to trust a third party with sensitive information.
Some common issues and fixes:
hooklaw is built with Node.js and TypeScript. It combines modern programming tools with a focus on security and user control. It supports many AI-related technologies and automation workflows, making it flexible for various use cases.
You do not need programming skills to get started. The user interface guides you through setup and use. Advanced users can dive deeper into configuration files and coding options if needed.
