Greptile Summary

Adds a new webhook request block and tool to send HTTP requests with HMAC-SHA256 signing and standard webhook headers
Enhances the human-in-the-loop block to expose resumeEndpoint API URLs alongside existing UI URLs for programmatic workflow resumption
Updates the resume page client with modernized styling using CSS variables and improved block identification using optional blockId fields

Important Files Changed

Filename	Overview
`tools/http/webhook_request.ts`	New webhook tool with HMAC signature generation and webhook-specific headers; requires review for security implementation
`blocks/blocks/webhook_request.ts`	New webhook request block configuration with AI-powered payload generation and comprehensive webhook functionality
`app/api/resume/[workflowId]/[executionId]/[contextId]/route.ts`	Modified resume API endpoint to allow dashboard access without deployment validation; check authentication logic
`executor/handlers/human-in-the-loop/human-in-the-loop-handler.ts`	Exposes resume API endpoints in HITL block outputs for webhook-based resumption; verify proper endpoint exposure

Confidence score: 4/5

This PR introduces significant new webhook functionality with proper integration across the codebase but requires careful security review
Score reflects well-structured implementation following established patterns, but deducted one point due to authentication bypass logic in resume endpoints and HMAC security implementation that needs verification
Pay close attention to the webhook tool's HMAC signature generation and the resume API's authentication bypass logic for dashboard access
