Claude Code + iMessage
iMessage is the conversation entry point; Claude Code is the agent that runs the work. Test Claude Code with Claude Opus 5 below, then connect iMessage and choose this agent in channel settings.
How the combination works
Claude Code does the work. iMessage carries the conversation.
Claude Code runs the coding loop, reads and edits repository files, invokes tools, and reports the result from its cloud workspace.
Connect iMessage by sending the pairing text to the number shown in AgentSky. The channel uses a US number and reaches the agent you select in the dashboard.
Claude Code
Owns the work loop, model calls, files, cloud computer, enabled tools, and the result returned to the conversation.
iMessage
Lets people reach the selected AgentSky agent from iMessage. It does not grant access to repositories or other applications mentioned in a message.
AgentSky
Owns the selected responder, channel binding, task state, model and runtime usage, and the separate permissions for tools and connectors.
Setup and first task
Connect Claude Code to the iMessage conversation you intend to use.
The Composer tests the exact agent in the browser. Channel setup remains a separate account or workspace authorization, so neither step can silently stand in for the other.
Test Claude Code in the Composer
The Composer above selects Claude Code and its current recommended model, Claude Opus 5. Use a small task with an answer you can inspect before connecting a shared channel.
Connect iMessage and choose Claude Code
Select an agent in the developer console and open its iMessage channel control. Use Open Messages, scan the QR with your iPhone, or copy the displayed number and code. Send the text from the account you intend to use.
Verify the real channel path
After pairing, ask for a checklist from a short set of notes. Verify that the selected agent replies before relying on the connection. Check that the reply arrives in the intended iMessage conversation and that the dashboard still names Claude Code as the responder.
Access, cost and limits
What Claude Code + iMessage establishes
Repository work where Claude Code's coding workflow and supported Claude models fit the team's existing review process.
Configure and verify
- Claude Code and Claude Opus 5 are preselected for the browser evaluation.
- iMessage is connected or paired to the intended account, workspace, server, device or conversation.
- The first real message reaches the selected agent and returns a useful reply through the same channel.
Do not assume
- A browser task does not automatically bind iMessage; finish the channel setup separately.
- iMessage membership does not authorize repositories, email, documents or other application data.
- Model tokens and active computer time are billed separately from any channel or provider plan.
