AI agents with Metronome webhooks
Receive Metronome webhooks on Trigger.dev and use them to start, resume or message your AI agents.
What you can do with Metronome webhooks
Start an agent
Metronome events can start a new agent run. For example, an agent that acts when a customer's Metronome credits run low.
Resume an agent
An agent can pause until the Metronome event it needs arrives, for up to 90 days, and costs nothing while it waits.
Message an agent
Metronome events can land in a running agent's conversation, so it acts on them with full context.
Events you can receive from Metronome
Some of the events Metronome sends. Your agent can filter on any of them.
Low credit balance reached
Spend threshold reached
Contract created
Commit segment started
Invoice finalized
Payment gate status
Example
An agent that acts when a customer's Metronome credits run low
Handled for you
Verified for you
webhooks.metronome() checks the Metronome-Webhook-Signature header on every request. Bad requests are rejected before anything runs.
Retries don't run twice
Retries are matched on event.id, so a retried webhook doesn't start a second run.
Filter before anything runs
Only the Metronome events you care about start a run. Filtered webhooks use no compute.
See every delivery
Every webhook is recorded with its payload, headers and the agents it reached, so you can debug it and replay it.
Get started
- 1
Set up the agent
Copy the starter prompt into your coding agent, like Claude Code, Cursor or Codex. It creates a Trigger.dev project and adds the webhook endpoint. Prefer to write it yourself? Start from the example above.
- 2
Add the webhook in Metronome
Deploy your project, or run
trigger dev, and the endpoint appears on the Webhooks page of the Trigger.dev dashboard with its URL. Add that URL in Metronome's webhook settings and pick the events you need. The endpoint's Copy setup prompt button gives your coding agent the exact steps. - 3
Add Metronome's secret key
Copy the secret key from Metronome. Then on the endpoint's page in the Trigger.dev dashboard, choose Set signing secret and paste it in, so Trigger.dev can check every request really came from Metronome.
- 4
Try it
Send a test event from Metronome, or use the endpoint's Test tab. It appears on the endpoint's Deliveries tab, with the agents it reached.
