+## 2. n8n Webhook Workflow
+
+Step-by-step setup for using n8n to trigger image generation and receive results
+via webhook.
+
+### Step 1: Create a Webhook Trigger Node
+
+1. Add a **Webhook** node in n8n.
+2. Set HTTP Method to `POST`.
+3. Set Path to `/comfyui-result`.
+4. Under Authentication, select **Header Auth** and configure:
+   - Name: `X-Signature`
+   - Value: leave blank (we will verify in code).
+5. Copy the **Production URL** (e.g., `https://n8n.your-domain.com/webhook/comfyui-result`).
+
+### Step 2: Create an HTTP Request Node to Submit a Job
+
+1. Add an **HTTP Request** node.
+2. Configure:
+   - Method: `POST`
+   - URL: `http://your-gateway:3000/jobs`
+   - Authentication: select **Generic Credential Type** > **Header Auth**
+     - Name: `X-API-Key`
+     - Value: `your-api-key`
+   - Body Content Type: JSON
+   - Body:
+
+```json
+{
+  "workflowId": "sdxl_realism_v1",
+  "inputs": {
+    "prompt": "{{ $json.prompt }}",
+    "width": 1024,
+    "height": 1024,
+    "steps": 30
+  },
+  "callbackUrl": "https://n8n.your-domain.com/webhook/comfyui-result",
+  "metadata": {
+    "requestId": "{{ $json.requestId }}"
+  }
+}
+```
+
+### Step 3: Process the Webhook Callback
+
+Back in the Webhook node, add downstream nodes:
+
+1. **IF** node: Check `{{ $json.status }}` equals `succeeded`.
+2. On true branch, **HTTP Request** node to download the image:
+   - URL: `http://your-gateway:3000{{ $json.result.outputs[0].url }}`
+   - Headers: `X-API-Key: your-api-key`
+   - Response Format: File
+3. Continue with your pipeline (save to disk, upload to S3, send to Slack, etc.).
+
+### Step 4: HMAC Verification (Optional)
+
+Add a **Code** node before the IF to verify the webhook signature:
+
+```javascript
+const crypto = require('crypto');
+const secret = 'your-webhook-secret';
+const body = JSON.stringify($json);
+const expected = crypto
+  .createHmac('sha256', secret)
+  .update(body, 'utf8')
+  .digest('hex');
+const received = $headers['x-signature']?.replace('sha256=', '');
+
+if (received !== expected) {
+  throw new Error('Invalid webhook signature');
+}
+
+return $json;
+```
+
+### Step 5: Add WEBHOOK_ALLOWED_DOMAINS
+
+In your gateway `.env`:
+
+```
+WEBHOOK_ALLOWED_DOMAINS=n8n.your-domain.com
+WEBHOOK_SECRET=your-webhook-secret
+```

+## 3. Supabase Edge Function
+
+A Supabase Edge Function that submits a job to the gateway and returns the job
+ID for client-side polling.

+
+## 4. Claude Code Integration
+
+How to use the ComfyUI Gateway from within a Claude Code session or any
+environment where Claude has access to shell tools.
+
+### Generating an Image from Claude Code
+
+When Claude Code has access to `bash` or `curl`, you can generate images directly:
+
+```bash
+# 1. Submit a generation job
+JOB_RESPONSE=$(curl -s -X POST http://localhost:3000/jobs \
+  -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
+  -H "X-API-Key: your-api-key" \
+  -d '{
+    "workflowId": "sdxl_realism_v1",
+    "inputs": {
+      "prompt": "a professional headshot photo, studio lighting, neutral background",
+      "width": 1024,
+      "height": 1024,
+      "steps": 30
+    },
+    "metadata": { "requestId": "claude-session-001" }
+  }')
+
+JOB_ID=$(echo "$JOB_RESPONSE" | jq -r '.jobId')
+echo "Job submitted: $JOB_ID"
+
+# 2. Poll until complete (simple loop)
+while true; do
+  STATUS=$(curl -s "http://localhost:3000/jobs/$JOB_ID" \
+    -H "X-API-Key: your-api-key" | jq -r '.status')
+  echo "Status: $STATUS"
+  if [ "$STATUS" = "succeeded" ] || [ "$STATUS" = "failed" ] || [ "$STATUS" = "cancelled" ]; then
+    break
+  fi
+  sleep 3
+done
+
+# 3. Get the output URL
+OUTPUT_URL=$(curl -s "http://localhost:3000/jobs/$JOB_ID" \
+  -H "X-API-Key: your-api-key" | jq -r '.outputs[0].url')
+echo "Output: http://localhost:3000$OUTPUT_URL"
+
+# 4. Download the image
+curl -s "http://localhost:3000$OUTPUT_URL" \
+  -H "X-API-Key: your-api-key" -o generated_image.png
+```
+
+### Using Base64 Output in Claude Code
+
+If you need the image as base64 (for inline display or further processing):
+
+```bash
+# Get base64 encoded output
+B64_DATA=$(curl -s "http://localhost:3000${OUTPUT_URL}?format=base64" \
+  -H "X-API-Key: your-api-key" | jq -r '.data')
+
+# Save the base64 to a file (can be read by Claude's image viewer)
+echo "$B64_DATA" | base64 -d > generated_image.png
+```
+
+### Helper Script for Repeated Use
+
+Save as `generate.sh` in your project:
+
+```bash
+#!/usr/bin/env bash
+set -euo pipefail
+
+GATEWAY_URL="${COMFYUI_GATEWAY_URL:-http://localhost:3000}"
+API_KEY="${COMFYUI_API_KEY:-}"
+WORKFLOW="${1:-sdxl_realism_v1}"
+PROMPT="${2:-a test image}"
+OUTPUT="${3:-output.png}"
+
+# Submit
+JOB=$(curl -sf -X POST "$GATEWAY_URL/jobs" \
+  -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
+  -H "X-API-Key: $API_KEY" \
+  -d "{
+    \"workflowId\": \"$WORKFLOW\",
+    \"inputs\": { \"prompt\": \"$PROMPT\", \"width\": 1024, \"height\": 1024 }
+  }")
+
+JOB_ID=$(echo "$JOB" | jq -r '.jobId')
+echo "Job: $JOB_ID"
+
+# Poll
+for i in $(seq 1 120); do
+  RESULT=$(curl -sf "$GATEWAY_URL/jobs/$JOB_ID" -H "X-API-Key: $API_KEY")
+  STATUS=$(echo "$RESULT" | jq -r '.status')
+  if [ "$STATUS" = "succeeded" ]; then
+    URL=$(echo "$RESULT" | jq -r '.outputs[0].url')
+    curl -sf "$GATEWAY_URL$URL" -H "X-API-Key: $API_KEY" -o "$OUTPUT"
+    echo "Saved to $OUTPUT"
+    exit 0
+  elif [ "$STATUS" = "failed" ]; then
+    echo "FAILED: $(echo "$RESULT" | jq '.error')"
+    exit 1
+  fi
+  sleep 2
+done
+
+echo "TIMEOUT"
+exit 1
+```
+
+Usage:
+
+```bash
+chmod +x generate.sh
+export COMFYUI_API_KEY=your-api-key
+./generate.sh sdxl_realism_v1 "a sunset over the ocean" sunset.png
+```
