Overview

Description from the maker (original English)

Lets Claude Code, Codex CLI and Antigravity message each other, with live push into open sessions.

PopNx MCP’s three pillars

These three are never merged into one score: opinions, measurements and popularity are different things.

What you can do with it

We have not written a plain-language summary for this one yet. Below are the facts we read from the registry.

  • Connection: Runs on your computer
  • Transport: stdio
  • Category: Other
  • You need to fill in: AGENT_NAME

Install

Pick the AI app you use, then copy the settings.

Before you install

  • Basic checks: 1 of 1 passed
  • Runs on your computer with your user’s permissions (files, network, apps).
  • You fill in yourself: AGENT_NAME, AGENT_MAIL_DIR

You need

  • npmNode.js installed (for the npx command)

Which app do you use?

Pick your app above. We remember it, so next time the button says “Install in …”.

Open Claude Desktop → Settings → Developer → Edit Config, and paste this into claude_desktop_config.json

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "agent-intercom": {
      "command": "npx",
      "args": [
        "-y",
        "agent-intercom",
        "serve"
      ],
      "env": {
        "AGENT_NAME": "your-value",
        "AGENT_MAIL_DIR": "your-value"
      }
    }
  }
}

Run this in your terminal

claude mcp add agent-intercom --env AGENT_NAME=your-value --env AGENT_MAIL_DIR=your-value -- npx -y agent-intercom serve

Fill in the empty values before running it.

Open in Cursor

Or copy the settings yourself

Paste into .cursor/mcp.json in your project, or ~/.cursor/mcp.json

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "agent-intercom": {
      "command": "npx",
      "args": [
        "-y",
        "agent-intercom",
        "serve"
      ],
      "env": {
        "AGENT_NAME": "your-value",
        "AGENT_MAIL_DIR": "your-value"
      }
    }
  }
}

Your browser asks to open the app, then the app shows the settings and asks you to confirm. Key values are left empty for you to fill in.

Open in VS Code

Or copy the settings yourself

Paste into .vscode/mcp.json in your project

{
  "servers": {
    "agent-intercom": {
      "type": "stdio",
      "command": "npx",
      "args": [
        "-y",
        "agent-intercom",
        "serve"
      ],
      "env": {
        "AGENT_NAME": "your-value",
        "AGENT_MAIL_DIR": "your-value"
      }
    }
  }
}

Your browser asks to open the app, then the app shows the settings and asks you to confirm. Key values are left empty for you to fill in.

This one runs on your computer, and ChatGPT can only connect to servers on the internet. Pick another app.

Your choice stays on this device in a cookie; no account needed.

Values you fill in

  • AGENT_NAME required env
    This agent's mailbox name, e.g. claude, codex or gemini
  • AGENT_MAIL_DIR env
    Mailbox folder shared by all agents (default ~/.agent-mail)

These settings are generated from the maker’s registry entry. If the README says otherwise, follow the README.

Common questions

Is agent-intercom safe?

It passed 1 of 1 applicable basic checks. We have not read the code. Before adding a key or token, see what access the server asks for and use a key with only the permissions you need.

What keys or codes does it need?

You need to fill in: AGENT_NAME

Does it run on my computer or in the cloud?

It runs on your computer. Your AI app starts it when needed, and data does not pass through the maker’s servers (unless it calls an online service itself).

Is it still maintained?

The GitHub repo last changed –, and the latest version (0.2.5) reached the registry 19 days ago.

Which apps can use it?

Apps that support MCP, such as Claude Desktop, Claude Code, Cursor and VS Code. You also need Node.js on your computer.

What can I use instead?

Let Claude Code, Codex CLI and Antigravity (Gemini) message each other,

and land each message straight in the other agent's open session.

If it saves you time, a ⭐ helps other people find it.

Get started

npx agent-intercom install

Using Claude Code only? Install it as a plugin instead:

/plugin install agent-intercom --marketplace iambashar/agent-intercom

On Claude Code older than 2.1.275: /plugin marketplace add iambashar/agent-intercom , then /plugin install agent-intercom@agent-intercom . The plugin also adds a skill that teaches Claude the mailbox conventions.

The npx command registers the MCP server with every CLI it finds. Restart them, and each agent gets three tools: mail_send, mail_check and mail_peers. Then ask in plain words:

You → Claude: Ask codex to review the diff in src/parser.ts and wait for its answer.

Turn on live push so nobody has to poll. Install it globally, because the daemon needs a stable path:

npm i -g agent-intercom

agent-intercom install --push

What install changes, per CLI

CLIRegistrationExtra for push
Claude Codeclaude mcp add, user scopenothing; uses Claude Code's peer socket
Codex CLIa managed block in ~/.codex/config.toml (backed up first)nothing; uses the Codex app-server daemon
Antigravity (`agy`)agy mcp adda session hook in ~/.gemini/config/hooks.json

Use --only claude|codex|gemini for one CLI, and --local to pin a git checkout instead of npx. agent-intercom uninstall removes all of it, including the push daemon.

[!NOTE]

The old gemini CLI no longer accepts personal Google AI Pro sign-ins; Google moved those users to the Antigravity CLI (agy). Its agent is named gemini here by default.

See it work

Neither agent polls. The request appears in Codex as a new turn the moment it is sent, and the reply lands in Claude the same way.

What you get

Supported agents

AgentMailbox nameHow a message reaches the open session
claudeClaude Code's local peer-messaging socket, the channel SendMessage uses between sessions. Arrives labelled as from another session.
codexThe shared app-server daemon the Codex TUI runs on: turn/start, or turn/steer when a turn is already running.
geminiagy agentapi send-message into the conversation. Each session registers itself once through a hook.
Any other MCP clientanythingNo push. It reads with mail_check, or blocks with mail_check(wait_seconds=300).
ToolWhat it does
mail_send(to, body, reply_to?)Drop a message in another agent's inbox
mail_check(wait_seconds?)Read and consume your messages; with wait_seconds (max 300) it blocks until one arrives

How push works

sequenceDiagram

autonumber participant C as Claude Code participant M as ~/.agent-mail/codex/inbox participant P as pushd participant X as Codex CLI (open session) C->>M: mail_send(to: "codex", body) M-->>P: file appears (fs.watch, no polling) P->>M: claim: rename to .json.pushing P->>X: turn/start with the message X-->>P: turn accepted P->>M: move to read/ Note over X: Codex works on it, then replies with mail_send(to: "claude")

  • Delivered once. The daemon renames a message before pushing it, and mail_check renames before reading. Whoever wins the rename delivers it.
  • Fails safe. A failed push puts the file back in the inbox and retries after 30 s. If no session is open, the message waits for mail_check.
  • Addressing. Pick a session with claude. , codex. or gemini. . Otherwise the most recently active session gets it, or the one named in ~/.agent-mail/routes.json:
  { "claude": "api-server", "codex": "019f018a" }

[!WARNING]

Push relies on undocumented internals of all three CLIs, and an update can change them without notice. When that happens, pushes fail, get logged, and the mail falls back to the inbox. Protocol details: docs/live-push.md.

Without the push daemon

  • Claude Code: docs/claude-monitor.md. agent-intercom watch claude under the Monitor tool wakes the session when mail arrives.
  • Codex: docs/codex-listen.md. A listener prompt that loops on mail_check(wait_seconds=300).

Across machines

Agents on a machine with no shared filesystem, such as a GPU server or an HPC cluster, join over SSH with bridge.sh. It moves each message to the machine its recipient lives on, and pulled mail is pushed like any other.

More: docs/remote-bridge.md.

More than one session per CLI

Names are just AGENT_NAME. Give each session its own, for example claude-api and claude-web:

npx agent-intercom install --only claude --claude-name claude-api

CLI

agent-intercom install [--only claude|codex|gemini] [--claude-name N] [--codex-name N] [--gemini-name N] [--local] [--push]

agent-intercom uninstall MCP entries, agy hook and push daemon agent-intercom push install push daemon as a login service (launchd / systemd --user) agent-intercom push uninstall agent-intercom push run push daemon in the foreground agent-intercom status unread/read counts per agent agent-intercom watch one line per new message, without consuming it agent-intercom serve the MCP server on stdio

Security

This is a local mailbox with no authentication. Any process running as you can write to ~/.agent-mail/*/inbox, and an agent treats a message as input to act on. With push on, that input reaches your open sessions without you typing anything.

  • Treat inbox contents as untrusted text. Don't
