# iMessage (imsg)
|
|
|
|
Status: external CLI integration. No daemon.
|
|
|
|
## Model
|
|
- Clawdis spawns `imsg rpc` as a child process.
|
|
- JSON-RPC runs over stdin/stdout (one JSON object per line).
|
|
- Gateway owns the process; no TCP port needed.
|
|
|
|
## Requirements
|
|
- macOS with Messages signed in.
|
|
- Full Disk Access for Clawdis + the `imsg` binary (Messages DB access).
|
|
- Automation permission for Messages when sending.
|
|
|
|
## Config
|
|
|
|
```json5
|
|
{
|
|
imessage: {
|
|
enabled: true,
|
|
cliPath: "imsg",
|
|
dbPath: "~/Library/Messages/chat.db",
|
|
allowFrom: ["+15555550123", "user@example.com", "chat_id:123"],
|
|
includeAttachments: false,
|
|
mediaMaxMb: 16,
|
|
service: "auto",
|
|
region: "US"
|
|
}
|
|
}
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
Notes:
|
|
- `allowFrom` accepts handles (phone/email) or `chat_id:<id>` entries.
|
|
- `service` defaults to `auto` (use `imessage` or `sms` to pin).
|
|
- `region` is only used for SMS targeting.
|
|
|
|
## Addressing / targets
|
|
|
|
Prefer `chat_id` for stable routing:
|
|
- `chat_id:123` (preferred)
|
|
- `chat_guid:...` (fallback)
|
|
- `chat_identifier:...` (fallback)
|
|
- direct handles: `imessage:+1555` / `sms:+1555` / `user@example.com`
|
|
|
|
List chats:
|
|
```
|
|
imsg chats --limit 20
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
## Group chat behavior
|
|
- Group messages set `ChatType=group`, `GroupSubject`, and `GroupMembers`.
|
|
- Group activation respects `routing.groupChat.requireMention` and `mentionPatterns`.
|
|
- Replies go back to the same `chat_id` (group or direct).
|
|
|
|
## Troubleshooting
|
|
- `clawdis gateway call providers.status --params '{"probe":true}'`
|
|
- Verify `imsg` is on PATH and has access to Messages DB.
