Control your iMessage inbox using your AI Agent

Kondo’s iMessage MCP server gives your AI agent a read and draft window into your chats. It can search chats, draft replies, apply labels, set reminders and archive chats, and it interacts with the inbox on your computer.

Read and search

Find any iMessage chat instantly

Ask your agent to find chats by contact name or message text. It surfaces the chats you forgot about and reads the full history, so you get the context without scrolling through hundreds of messages.

Draft, never send

Drafts your iMessage response

Your agent reads the chat and writes the reply for you, then saves it to the chat as a draft. Nothing is ever sent without you: the agent drafts but you decide what gets sent.

Label and triage

Label and organize iMessage chats

Have your agent sort incoming chats into leads, clients or support, so the right split inbox holds each one and nothing slips through the cracks.

Reminders

Snooze chats, follow up on time

Tell your agent to follow up with a contact next week and it sets a reminder. The chat resurfaces at the top of your inbox when it’s due, with no other tool needed.

On your computer

Your computer is the source of truth

Your agent reads chats from the Kondo desktop app running on your computer, so MCP only works while the app is open. Message content is never stored on the MCP relay, and your agent never sees your Apple ID.

Safety

Built so your agent can’t go rogue

Your agent can’t send

Sending isn’t possible through the MCP server. Replies are saved as drafts, and nothing goes out until you send it yourself.

No Apple ID shared

You sign in to Kondo, not iMessage. Your agent never sees your Apple ID.

Read on your computer

Your messages are read from the Kondo desktop app on your machine, not from a copy on Kondo’s servers, and only while the app is open.

Paced like a person

Drafts, reminders and archiving reach iMessage one at a time with a pause between them, the way a person works.

Kondo does not automate

Automation is the number one way to put an account at risk. Kondo doesn’t run outreach sequences or send bulk messages.

Disconnect anytime

Revoke an agent’s access from Settings → MCP in Kondo whenever you want.

FAQ for iMessage MCP Server

What is MCP for iMessage?

MCP is how Claude, ChatGPT, Cursor and other AI assistants talk to Kondo Desktop. They can read your iMessage inbox and take the inbox actions you approve, while the app is running on your computer.

Can the iMessage MCP server send messages on my behalf?

No. Kondo’s iMessage MCP server has no send tool, and Kondo does not run outreach sequences. Everything your agent writes is saved as a draft in the chat, where it waits until you review it and choose to send. Your agent can read, label, remind, archive and draft, but the decision to send always stays with you.

Does this upload my iMessage chats to Kondo?

No. Message data is read from the Kondo app on your computer. Command and response data passes through Kondo’s relay in memory and is not stored and your Apple ID is never shared with your AI assistant.

Does the desktop app need to stay open?

Yes. MCP only works while Kondo Desktop is running on your computer.

Which AI assistants work with Kondo’s iMessage MCP server?

Claude, ChatGPT, Cursor, Claude Code, Copilot and any other MCP client that supports Streamable HTTP. ChatGPT shows a confirmation step before any write action such as labeling or drafting.

What can I actually ask my AI agent to do in iMessage?

Ask it to find unanswered chats, search by contact name or message text, label incoming chats, snooze chats for follow-up, archive old chats or draft a reply to a specific person. For example: “Find everyone who messaged me about pricing this week and draft a follow-up for each.”

Which plan includes MCP?

MCP is included on the Business and Enterprise plans. It is not included on Basic. See the pricing page for what each plan includes.
