Sometimes builds need to do things which depend on deeper details hidden within a webhook which has triggered a build. For example:

- Switch to a different repository before checkout, for [multi-repo workflows](https://github.com/buildkite/feedback/issues/238)
- Look at the changed files in a push event for monorepo builds
- See the specific GitHub user who pushed a branch versus the commit author

It’s be great to have a command like `buldkite-agent webhook get` which returned the full webhook body which triggered a build available within a command step.
