+# Events
+
+Addons hook into mitmproxy's internal mechanisms through events. These are
+implemented on addons as methods with a set of well-known names. Many events
+receive `Flow` objects as arguments - by modifying these objects, addons can
+change traffic on the fly. For instance, here is an addon that adds a response
+header with a count of the number of responses seen:
+
+{{< example src="examples/addons/addheader.py" lang="py" >}}
+
+
+## Supported Events
+
+Below is an addon class that implements stubs for all events. We've added
+annotations to illustrate the argument types for the various events.
