feat(webhook): GEMINI-HARDEN-04 — authenticated webhook runner\n\nReplace print-only payload parser with production-hardened receiver:\n - HMAC-SHA256 signature verification (X-Gitea-Signature)\n - Event / repo / branch / action allowlists (config + env driven)\n - Idempotent event processing via X-Gitea-Delivery with TTL state file\n - Structured JSON logging (stdout + optional file)\n - Safe dispatch — pre-approved script invocations only, no arbitrary shell\n\nNew files:\n - scripts/webhook_runner.py — main HTTP server + policy engine\n - scripts/webhook_config.yaml — sample configuration\n - tests/test_webhook_runner.py — 40 pytest unit tests\n - tests/fixtures/webhook/*.json — payload fixtures for push/PR/issue\n\nAcceptance criteria:\n ✓ Verify Gitea webhook secret/signature\n ✓ Event, repo, branch, and action allowlists explicit and config-driven\n ✓ No direct git pull, shell execution, or fleet mutation from payload fields\n ✓ Structured logging with accepted/rejected events\n ✓ Idempotency via X-Gitea-Delivery tracking\n ✓ Local test fixtures: push, PR, issue, invalid-signature, unknown-event\n ✓ Deployment notes: config via env vars or scripts/webhook_config.yaml\n\nCloses #436

+Authenticated Gitea Webhook Runner — GEMINI-HARDEN-04
+
+Replaces print-only payload parser with production-hardened receiver:
+  • HMAC-SHA256 signature verification (X-Gitea-Signature)
+  • Event / repo / branch / action allowlists (config-driven)
+  • Idempotent event processing (X-Gitea-Delivery idempotency key)
+  • Structured JSON logging (stdout + optional file)
+  • Safe dispatch — pre-approved script invocations only, no payload-driven shell
+
+Usage:
+  python3 scripts/webhook_runner.py --server        # Run HTTP server (default)
+  python3 scripts/webhook_runner.py --test <file>   # Test a payload file locally
+  python3 scripts/webhook_runner.py --validate-config
+
+Env vars (override config file):
+  WEBHOOK_SECRET           — Shared secret with Gitea (required for prod)
+  WEBHOOK_ALLOWED_EVENTS   — Comma-separated: push,pull_request,issue
+  WEBHOOK_ALLOWED_REPOS    — Comma-separated repo allowlist (org/repo or org/*)
+  WEBHOOK_ALLOWED_BRANCHES — Comma-separated branch patterns (push only)
+  WEBHOOK_ALLOWED_ACTIONS  — Comma-separated PR/issue actions (opened,closed,…)
+  WEBHOOK_HOST             — Bind host (default 127.0.0.1)
+  WEBHOOK_PORT             — Bind port (default 7777)
+  WEBHOOK_LOG_FILE         — Optional structured log file path
+  WEBHOOK_IDEMPOTENCY_DB   — Path to idempotency state file (.webhook_idempotency.json)
+
+Config file (optional YAML at scripts/webhook_config.yaml) may override defaults.
