hodor: one stable doorway for every external API

hodor.ing Observed source
Editorial interest 86/100 Selection signal · not a rating of the site

A credential proxy that gives each external service its own stable subdomain while keeping upstream keys encrypted on the operator's server.

Landing page captured for the 2026-09-15 issue.

Field notes

The project maps each external service to a subdomain and forwards ordinary HTTPS requests after adding the relevant upstream authorization header. Its examples cover Linear GraphQL, PostHog feature flags, Cloudflare token verification, and Axiom datasets, while the deployment recipe uses a Cloudflare Worker, a KV namespace, two secrets, and a wildcard DNS record. The page also documents caller-specific keys and an admin API for registering secrets.
