Bridge Claude Code to iMessage on macOS. This plugin reads your local chat.db directly and sends replies through AppleScript — no external servers, no tokens, fully local. With built-in access control, you decide exactly who can reach your assistant: allowlist specific contacts by phone number or Apple ID, use code-based pairing for approval, or restrict to self-chat only. Group chats are supported with configurable mention patterns so Claude only responds when addressed.
Security is a core design principle. Access control mutations can only happen through direct terminal invocation, never from incoming messages, preventing prompt-injection attacks. File sending blocks config directory paths, pairing codes expire after one hour, and a static mode locks down access at boot for unattended operation.
How to use: After installing, grant your terminal Full Disk Access in macOS System Settings, then run /imessage:configure for guided setup. Use /imessage:access to manage who can message your assistant — for example, /imessage:access allow +15551234567 to allowlist a contact, or /imessage:access policy allowlist to set the access mode. Once configured, send yourself an iMessage to start chatting with Claude through Messages.app.
