Messaging layer for agents · 2025
This project is retired and accounts are closed — but the site is still live if you want to look around.
A messaging layer for coding agents: you texted a GitHub repo over iMessage and it answered — questions about the code, PR reviews, edits shipped from your phone. Multi-provider (Claude / GPT / Gemini) with BYOK and failover.
I built it in 2025. The first third-party AI agent Apple allowed inside iMessage didn't arrive until March 2026 (Poke, through Apple Messages for Business).
It never scaled, and the reason is structural: iMessage has no official API. The only ways in are a fragile Mac relay or reverse-engineering the protocol, and Apple blocks those — Beeper Mini got shut down within days. The one sanctioned channel, Messages for Business, is approval-gated and reply-only. There was no honest path from a hack to a product.
