Completion: polling, not webhooks

There is no webhook_url on POST /api/v1/generate today. When a video is ready, you learn it by polling GET /api/v1/status/{id}.

Payment provider webhooks (Dodo, Mollie) exist for billing only. They do not notify you that a generation finished.

Use the n8n wait + poll workflow or the Python waiter until a job webhook ships.
