[Claude Code Integrated with iMessage, Enabling Local Programming Agent Control via Mobile Devices] Odaily Planet Daily News: Thariq Shihipar, a member of the Anthropic Claude Code team, announced that iMessage is now available as a communication channel for Claude Code. After installing the plugin on a Mac, users can send commands to a locally running Claude Code session via iPhone or other Apple devices. Claude executes the commands locally and returns the results through iMessage. This functionality is achieved by reading the macOS Messages database and integrating with AppleScript, without relying on external services. Currently in the research preview stage, it requires Claude Code version 2.1.80 or above.
