This year's rules ask for new projects built within the challenge window, so I'm not presenting this as a prize entry. I'm sharing it because the challenge asks the question this project was built to answer: who did you build it for? I built it for a group of people building an agent system on LangGraph.

It's rarely the HMAC. It's everything around it: the body, the secret, the URL, retries and tests.

This is a submission for the Hacktoberfest Weekend Challenge: Build for a Friend My friend Shivin wanted to get into open source this October. He could code.

He'd open a real project, see a long README and a hundred open issues, and the questions piled up before he wrote a single line: Which of these files actually matter? So I built him GoodFirst.
