}A message to the customer of a test delivery was not sent
Sent only for a delivery made in test mode, when a message to the
customer was not sent because the delivery’s dropoff.phone is not one
of the team phones you verified on the dashboard (Settings, Test phones),
or because you reached the 20 customer messages a day that test mode
sends. The delivery itself carried on exactly as it would have.
data carries the delivery id, which moment was skipped and why. It
has no phone number: you already hold the delivery.

}Headers
Proves the event came from us. The value is t=<unix seconds>,v1=<hex>,
where the hex is an HMAC-SHA256, keyed on your signing secret, over the
string "<t>.<raw request body>".
To verify: split the header on the comma, rebuild "<t>.<body>" from
the RAW bytes you received (never a parsed and re-serialized object, or
whitespace and escape sequences will change the digest), compute the
HMAC, and compare it to v1 in constant time. Reject anything that does
not match.
Then check the clock. Reject an event whose t is more than 5 minutes
away from now in EITHER direction: a t far in the past is the replay
this scheme exists to stop, and one far in the future is the same attack
with a clock nobody checked.
Two secrets can be active at once so you can rotate without downtime: add the new one, accept either, promote it, then drop the old one. We always sign with the primary.

Body
The fields every event shares. Delivery is at-least-once and unordered
by design: dedupe on id, and order by created_at or by the object's
own timestamps rather than by arrival. type and data are added by
each event, because their values depend on which event it is.
The event id, evt_ prefixed. Dedupe on this.

When the event was recorded, ISO-8601 in UTC.

Which event this is.
delivery.message_skipped The body of a delivery.message_skipped event. Sent only for a delivery
made in test mode, when a message to the customer was not sent: either
because the delivery's dropoff.phone is not one of the team phones you
verified on the dashboard (Settings, Test phones), or because you reached
the 20 customer messages a day that test mode sends. The delivery itself
carried on as usual. Correlate it with a delivery you already hold; it
is not the delivery object and carries no phone number.
