Shipping notes from the tunnel control plane
The Binboi blog follows product decisions, security tradeoffs, and the operational realities of building a developer tunnel and webhook debugging platform that stays honest about its MVP boundaries.
Featured note
Webhook debugging without redeploys
Why Binboi treats webhooks as a first-class workflow: public URLs, request inspection, and faster answers when signatures or payloads go sideways.
Why this exists
A product log, not content filler
Every post should help developers and operators understand the product better: what changed, why it changed, and what that means for using Binboi in practice.
Binboi is still early, which makes product writing more important, not less.
These notes explain the security model, the UX decisions around honesty and fallback states, and the practical workflow around tunnels, tokens, and request debugging.
As the project matures, the blog becomes the narrative layer between changelog entries and full documentation guides.
Why Binboi separates users and CLI tokens
Operator accounts belong in the dashboard. Machines belong behind revocable access tokens. That split makes the MVP safer and easier to reason about.
Designing an honest tunnel dashboard
A control plane earns trust by being clear about what is live, what is mocked, and what still needs backend work. Binboi now leans into that discipline.
