 # Changelog
 
+## 1.23.0
+
+### Minor Changes
+
+- [#341](https://github.com/nansen-ai/nansen-cli/pull/341) [`4b60056`](https://github.com/nansen-ai/nansen-cli/commit/4b6005697d52b5d432b9b32bcd1d36422f9166cc) Thanks [@gulshngill](https://github.com/gulshngill)! - Add `--webhook <url>` and `--webhook-secret <secret>` flags to `alerts create` and `alerts update`.
+
+  Allows alerts to be delivered to any HTTP/HTTPS endpoint via POST, alongside
+  the existing `--telegram`, `--slack`, and `--discord` channels. The optional
+  `--webhook-secret` enables HMAC payload signing for verification.
+
+### Patch Changes
+
+- [#344](https://github.com/nansen-ai/nansen-cli/pull/344) [`3dc09cc`](https://github.com/nansen-ai/nansen-cli/commit/3dc09cc8aa38cd4da4ae305f83e9599efb3b9ff9) Thanks [@0xlaveen](https://github.com/0xlaveen)! - Add nansen-agent-guide skill — routing guide for when to use `nansen agent` vs direct CLI data commands
+
+- [#347](https://github.com/nansen-ai/nansen-cli/pull/347) [`a243c7a`](https://github.com/nansen-ai/nansen-cli/commit/a243c7a33f28057949d2060c732083642422eb18) Thanks [@kome12](https://github.com/kome12)! - Add --buy-or-sell option to `token who-bought-sold` command — allows filtering by buy or sell side (BUY | SELL, defaults to BUY)

+# Agent vs CLI Routing
+
+| Need a... | Use |
+|-----------|-----|
+| **take** (analysis, interpretation) | `nansen agent` |
+| **table** (raw data, specific metrics) | Direct CLI commands |
+| **report** (both) | Agent for narrative + CLI for data |
+
+## Use `nansen agent` when
+
+- Question requires interpretation or synthesis across multiple data sources
+- Open-ended research: "analyse this wallet", "what's happening with ETH smart money?"
+
+```bash
+nansen agent "What are top smart money tokens on Solana today and why?"
+nansen agent "Analyse wallet 0x123... -- is this a smart trader?"
+nansen agent "..." --expert   # deeper analysis, 750 credits
+```
+
+Cost: 200 credits (fast) / 750 credits (expert)
+
+## Use direct CLI commands when
+
+- You need specific structured data -- prices, volumes, holders, flows
+- Deterministic question: "top 10 tokens by netflow on ethereum"
+- Piping output or building a data table
+
+```bash
+nansen research token screener --chain ethereum --smart-money --limit 10
+nansen research smart-money netflow --chain solana
+nansen research profiler balance --address 0x123... --chain ethereum
+```
+
+Cost: 5-50 credits per call
+
+## Anti-patterns
+
+- Don't use `nansen agent` for simple data fetches -- 40x more expensive
+- Don't use raw CLI for open-ended analysis -- returns data, not interpretation
+- Don't chain 3+ agent calls -- get raw data via CLI, call agent once for synthesis

 - Chain aliases: Hyperliquid = `hyperevm`, BSC = `bnb`.
-- Multiple channels can be combined: `--telegram 123 --slack https://...`
+- Multiple channels can be combined: `--telegram 123 --slack https://... --webhook https://...`
+- `--webhook <url>` sends a POST request with the alert payload to any HTTP/HTTPS endpoint. Useful for server deployments, Zapier, n8n, or custom integrations. The endpoint must be publicly reachable and return a 2xx response.
 - `--data '<json>'` merges raw JSON on top of named flags (escape hatch for fields without named flags).
 - Alert endpoints are internal-only. Non-internal users receive 404.
 - Use single quotes for names with `$` or special characters: `--name 'SM >$1M'`
