Summary

  • add a {{ cipp_results }} description placeholder that renders every CIPP Results item as readable English plain text
  • provide command-aware layouts for Defender alerts and application secret/certificate expiry alerts
  • preserve unknown future CIPP result fields through a generic fallback while omitting empty values
  • expose the placeholder in the endpoint form and document a universal CIPP template
  • add coverage for multiple Defender results, credential expiry alerts, unknown fields, empty results, and existing secret masking

Motivation

A single Hookwise endpoint is used for all CIPP alerts. Rendering {$.Results} currently produces a Python-style representation of the complete array, while specific paths such as {$.Results[0].Title} lose additional results and do not work across different CIPP schemas.

The new opt-in placeholder keeps existing endpoint behavior unchanged and provides readable descriptions for all CIPP alert types.

Validation

  • git diff --check
  • GitHub Actions will run Ruff, mypy, and pytest (a Python runtime is not available in the local environment)

Example

CIPP Alert

Tenant: {$.Tenant}
Alert: {$.TaskInfo.Name}
Source: {$.TaskInfo.Command}
Hookwise Request ID: {{ request_id }}

{{ cipp_results }}

📝 Walkthrough

Walkthrough

The PR adds CIPP result formatting and {{ cipp_results }} template support. It documents the placeholder, adds UI insertion support, and tests multiple result formats. The GHCR workflow now runs on all branch pushes and pull requests.

Changes

CIPP result rendering

Layer / File(s) Summary
CIPP result formatting and validation
hookwise/utils.py, tests/test_utils.py
The formatter handles command-specific fields, generic data, masking, multiple results, and empty results. Tests cover these cases.
Template and documentation integration
hookwise/tasks.py, templates/form.html, README.md
Description templates can substitute {{ cipp_results }}. The form provides the placeholder, and the README includes usage examples.

GHCR workflow triggers

Layer / File(s) Summary
Branch and pull request triggers
.github/workflows/ghcr.yml
The workflow runs for pushes to all branches and pull requests targeting all branches. Existing tag and manual triggers remain unchanged.

Estimated code review effort: 3 (Moderate) | ~20 minutes

Merge Risk: 🔵 Low · up to f242c

The PR adds readable CIPP result formatting, but the current head still has bounded risks: result text may be altered by template substitution, empty nested values may create blank output, and forked pull requests may fail during container publication. These should be fixed or explicitly accepted before merge.

GitHub Actions pull_request fork GITHUB_TOKEN read-only permissions secrets unavailable packages write container registry

💡 Result:

When a GitHub Actions workflow is triggered by a pull request from a fork, specific security restrictions are applied to prevent unauthorized access and potential supply-chain attacks [1][2]. Key security constraints for workflows triggered by pull_request from a fork: - GITHUB_TOKEN: The token is automatically downgraded to read-only permissions [3][2][4]. It cannot perform write operations such as pushing commits, adding labels, or posting comments to the repository [2][4]. - Secrets: Repository and organization secrets are unavailable [1][5][6]. They are not passed to the runner, ensuring that untrusted code in the fork cannot access sensitive credentials [2][4]. - Write access: Attempting to write to the repository or registry using the default GITHUB_TOKEN will result in a permission error (e.g., "Resource not accessible by integration") [2]. If a workflow requires write access or secrets to process a pull request from a fork, common secure patterns include: 1. Use pull_request_target: This event runs in the context of the base repository and has access to secrets and a read/write GITHUB_TOKEN [1][7]. However, because it uses the workflow and code from the target (base) branch, it is highly sensitive to "pwn request" vulnerabilities [1][8][4]. To use it safely, you must never check out or execute the untrusted code from the fork [8][4]. It is often combined with labeling triggers (e.g., only run when a specific label is applied by a maintainer) to gate execution [9][7]. 2. Split Workflow Approach: An unprivileged workflow runs the untrusted CI/build tasks (using the standard pull_request trigger) [2][4]. A second, privileged workflow (using workflow_run) is triggered only after the first completes, performing trusted actions like reporting results or updating the PR [2][4]. The workflow_run event runs with access to secrets and a read/write token, but operates on the repository's base branch [4][10]. As of June 2026, actions/checkout v7 includes stricter defaults that refuse to fetch fork pull request code in pull_request_target workflows to mitigate common security risks [8]. Always follow the principle of least privilege by explicitly defining the permissions key in your workflow files to restrict the GITHUB_TOKEN even when using privileged triggers [1][11].

Make pull request runs build-only.

This job logs in to GHCR and sets push: true for every pull_request. Fork pull requests receive a read-only GITHUB_TOKEN, so these runs cannot publish and will fail. Gate GHCR login and image publication to trusted push events.

Insert CIPP output after JSONPath substitution.

Line 1077 inserts webhook-controlled CIPP text before lines 1079-1083 process JSONPath placeholders. If a result description contains literal text such as {$.Tenant}, HookWise replaces that text with payload data instead of preserving the result content.

Resolve JSONPath placeholders in description_template first. Then replace {{ cipp_results }}. Guard the formatter call so endpoints without this opt-in placeholder do not process all result items.

Proposed fix
                     description = (
                         description_template.replace("{{ monitor_name }}", monitor_name)
                         .replace("{{ msg }}", msg)
                         .replace("{{ request_id }}", request_id)

Treat recursively empty values as empty.

_has_cipp_value treats whitespace strings and values such as [None] as populated. The formatter then removes their content, so output can contain Field: with no value or a header-only result.

Normalize strings and inspect list and dictionary members recursively. Preserve 0 and False as renderable values. Add regression tests for whitespace-only values and containers with only empty members.

Proposed fix

     """Return whether a CIPP result value should be rendered."""
