add-imessage-v2	Add iMessage channel integration to NanoClaw v2 via Chat SDK. Local (macOS) or remote (Photon API) mode.

Add iMessage Channel

Adds iMessage support to NanoClaw v2 using the Chat SDK bridge. Two modes: local (macOS with Full Disk Access) or remote (Photon API).

Pre-flight

Check if src/channels/imessage.ts exists and the import is uncommented in src/channels/index.ts. If both are in place, skip to Credentials.

Install

npm install chat-adapter-imessage

Uncomment the iMessage import in src/channels/index.ts:

import './imessage.js';

npm run build

Credentials

Local Mode (macOS)

Requirements: macOS with Full Disk Access granted to the Node.js binary.

The Node binary path is buried deep (e.g. ~/.nvm/versions/node/v22.x.x/bin/node). To make it easy, open the folder in Finder so the user can drag the file into System Settings:

open "$(dirname "$(which node)")"

Then tell the user:

Open System Settings > Privacy & Security > Full Disk Access
Click +, then drag the node file from the Finder window that just opened
Toggle it on

Stop and wait for the user to confirm before continuing.

Remote Mode (Photon API)

Set up a Photon account
Get your server URL and API key

Configure environment

Local mode -- add to .env:

IMESSAGE_ENABLED=true
IMESSAGE_LOCAL=true

Remote mode -- add to .env:

IMESSAGE_LOCAL=false
IMESSAGE_SERVER_URL=https://your-photon-server.com
IMESSAGE_API_KEY=your-api-key

Sync to container: mkdir -p data/env && cp .env data/env/env

Next Steps

If you're in the middle of /setup, return to the setup flow now.

Otherwise, run /manage-channels to wire this channel to an agent group.

Channel Info

type: imessage
terminology: iMessage has "conversations." Each conversation is with a contact identified by phone number or email address. Group chats are also supported.
how-to-find-id: The platform ID is the contact's phone number (e.g. +15551234567) or email address. For group chats, the ID is assigned by iMessage internally.
supports-threads: no
typical-use: Interactive 1:1 chat — personal messaging
default-isolation: Same agent group if you're the only person messaging the bot across iMessage and other channels. Separate agent group if different contacts should have information isolation.
