test(webhook): add mock imports, fix dispatch_push test syntax

- Rewrite scripts/gitea_webhook_handler.py as HTTP server with HMAC-SHA256 auth
- Add config/webhook.yaml defining allowed repos/events/branches/actions
- Implement dispatch_push calling ansible/scripts/deploy_on_webhook.sh safely
- SQLite logging table with delivery_id dedup for replay safety
- Add tests/test_gitea_webhook_handler.py covering push/PR/signature/idempotency
- Add docs/webhook-deployment.md with security model, ops, and #288 alignment

Closes #436

+# Gitea Backup & Recovery Runbook
+
+**Last updated:** 2026-04-30  
+**Scope:** Single-node VPS (Ezra, 143.198.27.163) running Gitea  
+**Backup Strategy:** Automated daily full dumps via `gitea dump`
+
+---
+
+## What Gets Backed Up
+
+| Component | Method | Frequency | Retention |
+|-----------|--------|-----------|-----------|
+| All Gitea repositories (bare git dirs) | `gitea dump --file` | Daily at 2:00 AM | 7 days |
+| SQLite databases (gitea.db, indexer.db, etc.) | Included in dump | Daily | 7 days |
+| Attachments, avatars, hooks | Included in dump | Daily | 7 days |
+
+**Backup location:** `/var/backups/gitea/gitea-backup-YYYY-MM-DD_HHMMSS.tar.gz`
+
+**Log file:** `/var/log/gitea-backup.log`
+
+---
+
+## Backup Architecture
+
+The backup script `bin/gitea-backup.sh` runs daily via Hermes cron (`cron/vps/gitea-daily-backup.yml`). It:
+
+1. Locates the Gitea `WORK_PATH` by reading `/etc/gitea/app.ini` or falling back to common locations (`/var/lib/gitea`, `/home/git/gitea`)
+2. Invokes `gitea dump --work-path <path> --file <backup-tar.gz>` — Gitea's native, consistent snapshot mechanism
+3. Prunes archives older than 7 days
+4. Logs all operations to `/var/log/gitea-backup.log`
+
+**Prerequisites on the VPS:**
+- Gitea binary available at `/usr/local/bin/gitea` (or set `GITEA_BIN` env var)
+- `gitea dump` command must be available (Gitea ≥ 1.12)
+- SSH access to the VPS for manual recovery operations
+- Sufficient disk space in `/var/backups/gitea` (typical dump: ~2–10 GB depending on repo count/size)
+
+---
+
+## Recovery Time Objective (RTO) & Recovery Point Objective (RPO)
+
+| Metric | Estimate |
+|--------|----------|
+| **RPO** (data loss window) | ≤ 24 hours (last daily backup) |
+| **RTO** (time to restore) | **~45 minutes** (cold restore from backup tarball) |
+| **Downtime impact** | Gitea offline during restore (~20 min) |
+
+---
+
+## Step-by-Step Recovery Procedure
+
+### Phase 1 — Assess & Prepare (5 min)
+
+1. SSH into Ezra VPS: `ssh root@143.198.27.163`
+2. Stop Gitea so files are quiescent:
+   ```bash
+   systemctl stop gitea
+   ```
+3. Confirm current Gitea data directory (for reference):
+   ```bash
+   gitea --work-path /var/lib/gitea --config /etc/gitea/app.ini dump --help 2>&1
+   # Or check app.ini for WORK_PATH
+   cat /etc/gitea/app.ini | grep '^WORK_PATH'
+   ```
+
+### Phase 2 — Restore from Backup (20 min)
+
+4. Choose the backup tarball to restore from:
+   ```bash
+   ls -lh /var/backups/gitea/
+   # Pick the most recent: gitea-backup-2026-04-29_020001.tar.gz
+   ```
+
+5. **Optional: Move current data aside** (safety copy):
+   ```bash
+   mv /var/lib/gitea /var/lib/gitea.bak-$(date +%s)
+   ```
+
+6. Extract the backup in place:
+   ```bash
+   mkdir -p /var/lib/gitea
+   tar -xzf /var/backups/gitea/gitea-backup-YYYY-MM-DD_HHMMSS.tar.gz -C /var/lib/gitea --strip-components=1
+   ```
+   *Note:* `gitea dump` archives contain a single top-level directory `gitea-dump-<timestamp>`. The `--strip-components=1` puts its contents directly into `/var/lib/gitea`.
+
+7. Set correct ownership (typically `git:git`):
+   ```bash
+   chown -R git:git /var/lib/gitea
+   ```
+
+### Phase 3 — Restart & Validate (15 min)
+
+8. Start Gitea:
+   ```bash
+   systemctl start gitea
+   ```
+
+9. Wait 30 seconds, then verify:
+   ```bash
+   systemctl status gitea
+   # Check HTTP endpoint
+   curl -s -o /dev/null -w '%{http_code}' http://localhost:3000/  # Should be 200
+   ```
+
+10. Log into Gitea UI and spot-check:
+    - Home page loads
+    - A few repositories are accessible
+    - Attachments (avatars) render
+    - Recent commits visible
+
+11. If the web UI works but indices are stale, rebuild them (wait for background jobs to process):
+    ```bash
+    gitea admin index rebuild-repo --all
+    ```
+
+### Post-Restore Checklist
+
+- [ ] Admin UI reachable at `https://forge.alexanderwhitestone.com`
+- [ ] Sample PRs/milestones/labels present
+- [ ] Repository clone via SSH works: `git clone git@forge.alexanderwhitestone.com:Timmy_Foundation/timmy-config.git`
+- [ ] Check backup script health: `cat /var/log/gitea-backup.log | tail -20`
+- [ ] Re-enable any disabled integrations (webhooks, CI/CD runners)
+- [ ] Notify the fleet: post to relevant channels confirming operational status
+
+---
+
+## Known Issues & Workarounds
+
+| Symptom | Likely cause | Fix |
+|---------|--------------|-----|
+| `gitea: command not found` | Binary at non-standard path | Set `GITEA_BIN=/path/to/gitea` in cron env |
+| `Permission denied` on backup dir | Cron user lacks write access to `/var/backups` | `mkdir /var/backups/gitea && chown root:root /var/backups/gitea` |
+| Restore fails: `"database or disk is full"` | Insufficient space on `/var/lib/gitea` | Expand disk or clean up old data first; backups require ~1.5x live data size |
+| Old backup tarballs not deleting | Retention cron not firing | Check `systemctl status hermes-cron` and cron logs |
+
+---
+
+## Off-Site Replication (Future Work)
+
+This backup is **on-site only** (same VPS). For true resilience, replicating to a secondary location is recommended:
+
+- **Option A — rsync to second VPS** (Push nightly to `backup@backup-alexanderwhitestone.com:/backups/gitea/`)
+- **Option B — S3-compatible bucket** with lifecycle policy
+- **Option C — GitHub mirror of each repo** using `git push --mirror` (already considered in issue #481 broader work)
+
+Current scope: single-VPS backup only (single point of failure mitigated but not eliminated).

+# Webhook Deployment — Gitea → Authenticated Runner
+**Related:** #288 (webhook creation), #432 (hardening epic), #436 (this work)
+
+## Overview
+
+The authenticated webhook runner (`scripts/gitea_webhook_handler.py`) replaces
+the print-only payload parser with a production-hardened receiver:
+
+- **HMAC-SHA256 signature verification** (rejects unauthenticated requests)
+- **Config-driven allowlists** (repos, events, branches, PR actions)
+- **Safe action dispatch** — only pre-approved scripts run, never arbitrary commands
+- **Idempotent event logging** — SQLite-backed replay-safe store
+- **Structured JSON logs** — auditable acceptance/rejection decisions
+
+## Security Model
+
+| Threat                           | Mitigation                                                                 |
+|----------------------------------|-----------------------------------------------------------------------------|
+| Spoofed payload (no secret)      | `X-Gitea-Signature` HMAC verification (`require_signature: true`)        |
+| Payload field injection          | No direct interpolation — actions hardcoded; branch matched against set  |
+| Event replay                     | `guid` dedup in SQLite `webhook_events` table                            |
+| Privilege escalation             | Deploy script runs as invoking user; no `sudo` from webhook context      |
+| Information leakage              | Minimal error detail in HTTP 4xx responses; full details in logs only    |
+
+## Configuration
+
+### 1. `config/webhook.yaml`
+
+Defines allowlists. Commit this file — it contains no secrets:
+  allowed_repos: [timmy-config]
+  allowed_events: [push, pull_request, issues]
+  allowed_branches: [refs/heads/main, refs/heads/master]
+  allowed_pr_actions: [opened, closed, reopened, synchronized]
+  require_signature: true
+  deploy_script: ansible/scripts/deploy_on_webhook.sh
+
+### 2. Environment — `GITEA_WEBHOOK_SECRET`
+
+Set this on the webhook receiver host:
+```bash
+export GITEA_WEBHOOK_SECRET="<the-shared-secret-from-gitea>"
+```
+
+For Hermes agents, add to `~/.hermes/.env`:
+```
+GITEA_WEBHOOK_SECRET=<same-secret>
+```
+
+**Important:** The secret is configured when creating the Gitea webhook.
+Store it in 1Password or similar. Never commit it.
+
+### 3. Deploy script
+
+`ansible/scripts/deploy_on_webhook.sh` — runs `ansible-pull` to apply
+timmy-config as a sidecar overlay. It is:
+- Lock-protected (prevents concurrent runs)
+- Logging to `/var/log/ansible/webhook-deploy.log`
+- Safe — no shell interpolation from webhook payload
+
+## Server Operation
+
+### Manual start (development)
+```bash
+export GITEA_WEBHOOK_SECRET=$(cat ~/.config/gitea/webhook-secret)
+python3 scripts/gitea_webhook_handler.py --host 127.0.0.1 --port 9000
+```
+
+### systemd unit (production)
+Place `/etc/systemd/system/timmy-webhook.service`:
+```ini
+[Unit]
+Description=Timmy Gitea Webhook Handler
+After=network.target
+
+[Service]
+Type=simple
+User=alex
+WorkingDirectory=/Users/alex/timmy-config
+Environment=GITEA_WEBHOOK_SECRET=<secret>
+ExecStart=/usr/bin/env python3 /Users/alex/timmy-config/scripts/gitea_webhook_handler.py --port 9000
+Restart=on-failure
+
+[Install]
+WantedBy=multi-user.target
+```
+
+Then:
+```bash
+sudo systemctl daemon-reload
+sudo systemctl enable --now timmy-webhook
+sudo systemctl status timmy-webhook
+```
+
+Logs: `journalctl -u timmy-webhook -f`
+
+## Gitea Webhook Creation (aligns with #288)
+
+**Admin action — required once per repo.**
+
+1. In Gitea: Repository → Settings → Webhooks → Add Webhook
+2. Type: `Gitea`
+3. Target URL: `http://<receiver-host>:9000/webhooks/gitea`
+4. HTTP method: `POST`
+5. Content type: `application/json`
+6. Secret: paste the same value as `GITEA_WEBHOOK_SECRET`
+7. Triggers: `Push events`, `Pull request events` (optionally `Issues`)
+8. Active: ✓
+9. Add webhook
+
+Verify with:
+```bash
+curl -X POST http://localhost:9000/webhooks/gitea \
+  -H "X-Gitea-Signature: sha256=invalid" \
+  -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
+  -d '{"test":"bad"}' -w "\n%{http_code}\n"
+# → 401
+```
+
+## Verification
+
+### Smoke test — valid push
+```bash
+# Simulate a push event (normally Gitea does this after webhook creation)
+curl -X POST http://localhost:9000/webhooks/gitea \
+  -H "X-Gitea-Signature: $(printf '{"event":"push","repository":{"name":"timmy-config"},"ref":"refs/heads/main"}' | openssl dgst -sha256 -hmac "$GITEA_WEBHOOK_SECRET" -r | awk '{print $2}')" \
+  -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
+  -d '{"event":"push","repository":{"name":"timmy-config","owner":{"login":"allegro"}},"ref":"refs/heads/main","commits":[{"id":"abc123"}],"sender":{"username":"allegro"}}'
+# → {"status":"deploy triggered successfully"}
+```
+
+### Idempotency check — repeat the same curl
+The second call returns `{"status":"already processed"}` and logs a duplicate.
+
+### DB audit
+```bash
+sqlite3 logs/webhook_events.sqlite "SELECT delivery_id, event_type, verdict, received_at FROM webhook_events ORDER BY received_at DESC LIMIT 10;"
+```
+
+## Logs
+
+- **Event DB:** `logs/webhook_events.sqlite` — permanent, queryable audit log
+- **Deploy log:** `/var/log/ansible/webhook-deploy.log` — ansible-pull output
+- **Service logs:** `journalctl -u timmy-webhook -f`
+

+## Alignment with #288
+
+This runner is the **receiver endpoint** that #288's webhook configuration
+points to. #288 handles webhook *creation* on Gitea repos; this handler
+handles the *execution* path safely. Deploy the server first, then use #288
+workflow to wire each Timmy_Foundation repository to `http://host:9000/webhooks/gitea`.
