zeno-channel-sendblue 1.1.0

Sendblue iMessage webhook channel for Zeno.

zeno-channel-sendblue

Sendblue iMessage webhook channel for Zeno. The first webhook-style channel — use it as the template for any Channel that hosts its own HTTP inbound transport.

Hosts a Starlette + uvicorn server for Sendblue's inbound webhook and posts outbound messages to Sendblue's REST API. Verifies the shared-secret header, enforces a phone-number allowlist, and fires a typing indicator per accepted inbound message.

Install

uv add 'zeno-framework[sendblue]'
# or, without the AI package:
uv add zeno-channel-sendblue

Minimal usage

from zeno.channels.sendblue.channel import SendblueChannel

channel = SendblueChannel(
    api_key_id="...",
    api_secret="...",
    from_number="[phone]",
    signing_secret="...",            # shared with Sendblue dashboard
    allowed_numbers=("[phone]",),
    host="127.0.0.1",
    port=8080,
    webhook_path="/webhook",
)
# Then pass it to ZenoApp(channels=[channel]) exactly like any Channel.

Behavior

• Signature verification: Sendblue echoes the configured secret in the sb-signing-secret header. Bad or missing signature → 401. Every other drop (non-iMessage service, group message, unallowlisted sender, malformed JSON, queue full) returns 200 so Sendblue doesn't retry and so the 401 audit signal stays meaningful.
• Inbound → IncomingMessage: user_id = from_number (E.164), text = content, thread_key = from_number so replies route back. A non-empty media_url becomes an image Attachment.
• Outbound: text + optional single image via POST /api/send-message. Content over 18,996 chars is truncated (WARNING log) to fit Sendblue's limit.
• Capabilities: supports_images=True, supports_typing=True, others False.

Testing

uv run pytest packages/zeno-channel-sendblue

Tests use httpx.MockTransport for outbound and the Starlette TestClient for the router. No Sendblue secrets required in CI.
