textme

separate

Text Claude from your phone — set up the njerschow/textme daemon so inbound iMessages drive a Claude Code session on your laptop, with voice notes, image input, code execution, and a phone-number whitelist.

When to use

Use when the user says "text Claude", "text my laptop", "drive Claude from my phone", "I want to send iMessages to Claude", or "let me code from my phone".
Use when the user is heads-down away from their desk and wants to kick off, supervise, or interrupt a Claude session via SMS/iMessage.
Use when setting up a long-running headless workstation that the user wants to remote-control while travelling or away from the keyboard.
Pair with [[sendblue-notify]] for bidirectional flow — outbound completion pings + inbound commands on the same Sendblue account.
Do **not** use for outbound-only "text me when X finishes" patterns. That is [[sendblue-notify]] and does not need a daemon.

When not to use

**Outbound-only flows do not need this skill.** For "text me when X finishes" use [[sendblue-notify]]; running a daemon is overkill.
**Voice transcription requires a separate OpenAI API key.** Without it, voice notes are dropped or surfaced as un-transcribed audio depending on daemon version.
**The daemon polls on an interval** — there is no push delivery. Expect single-digit-second latency between message receipt and Claude response.
**One conversation, one machine.** This is a per-host daemon, not a multi-tenant service. Two daemons sharing one Sendblue number will both try to handle every inbound message.
**Sendblue free-plan verification still applies.** The user's phone must have texted the Sendblue number once before outbound responses from Claude reach the user (see [[sendblue-cli]] limitations).
