At a glance

A skill your agent uses when you need to send or manage iMessages via BlueBubbles (recommended iMessage integration).

  • You need to send
  • SKILL.md covers Overview, Inputs to collect, Actions and Notes, plus 1 more section
  • Instructions only: no scripts, shell commands, URLs or credentials in SKILL.md
  • Manage iMessages via BlueBubbles (recommended iMessage integration)

What it does

Bluebubbles is an agent skill from trpc-group/trpc-agent-go. Use when you need to send or manage iMessages via BlueBubbles (recommended iMessage integration). Calls go through the generic message tool with channel="bluebubbles".

Its SKILL.md is about 770 tokens, which your agent loads only when the skill is triggered. It is a single SKILL.md file with no bundled scripts.

It sits in Productivity & Automation, covering Messaging and chat bots. It works with React. The repository describes itself as: A Go framework for building production agent systems with graph workflows, tools, memory, A2A, AG-UI, MCP, evaluation, and observability. The licence is Apache-2.0.

When your agent uses it

  • You need to send
  • Manage iMessages via BlueBubbles (recommended iMessage integration)

Example prompts

  • “bluebubbles”
  • “/bluebubbles”

What it can do on your machine

Read from SKILL.md and the folder at commit 9bb1c42. It shows what the files ask for, not the result of running them.

  • Tool permissions

    Pre-approves nothing: there is no allowed-tools line, so your agent's usual permission prompts apply.

    From allowed-tools in the SKILL.md frontmatter.

  • Runs code

    No scripts in the folder and no shell commands in SKILL.md (its code samples are json).

    From the folder's file list and the shell code blocks in SKILL.md.

  • Network

    No URLs in SKILL.md.

    From URLs in SKILL.md, links to its own repository left out.

  • Credentials

    Names no API keys, tokens, secrets or passwords.

    From names ending in _API_KEY, _TOKEN, _SECRET, _KEY or _PASSWORD in SKILL.md.

Context cost

Bluebubbles loads about 768 tokens when it runs. Until then it costs about 45 tokens; SKILL.md has 207 words of instructions outside code blocks.

Always · name and description, kept in context so the agent knows when to use it
~45
When it runs · the whole SKILL.md, loaded when a task matches
~768

Estimates: characters ÷ 4, the usual rule of thumb; real counts depend on the model's tokenizer. Scripts and assets cost tokens only if the agent reads them.

Safety

Auto-check passed

The automated check found no risky patterns in SKILL.md.

Automated static check — not a guarantee. Review scripts before installing. It scans the text of SKILL.md for risky patterns (piping downloads into a shell, reading credential files, hidden Unicode, destructive commands); files beside SKILL.md are not scanned.

BlueBubbles Actions

Overview

BlueBubbles is OpenClaw’s recommended iMessage integration. Use the message tool with channel: "bluebubbles" to send messages and manage iMessage conversations: send texts and attachments, react (tapbacks), edit/unsend, reply in threads, and manage group participants/names/icons.

Inputs to collect

  • target (prefer chat_guid:...; also +15551234567 in E.164 or user@example.com)
  • message text for send/edit/reply
  • messageId for react/edit/unsend/reply
  • Attachment path for local files, or buffer + filename for base64

If the user is vague ("text my mom"), ask for the recipient handle or chat guid and the exact message content.

Notes

  • Requires gateway config channels.bluebubbles (serverUrl/password/webhookPath).
  • Prefer chat_guid targets when you have them (especially for group chats).
  • BlueBubbles supports rich actions, but some are macOS-version dependent (for example, edit may be broken on macOS 26 Tahoe).
  • The gateway may expose both short and full message ids; full ids are more durable across restarts.
  • Developer reference for the underlying plugin lives in extensions/bluebubbles/README.md.

Ideas to try

  • React with a tapback to acknowledge a request.
  • Reply in-thread when a user references a specific message.
  • Send a file attachment with a short caption.
